Frontend: matrix-js-sdk client per opened team, /sync against Synapse
directly (no chat traffic proxied through the backend), timeline with
day-grouping and read receipts, history backfill, lazy-loaded chat tab
in TeamsPage's team detail view (keeps matrix-js-sdk out of the initial
bundle).
Backend: POST /api/chat/token mints/caches a short-lived per-member
Matrix access token via Synapse's admin puppet-login (1h TTL, in-memory
cache with 5min pre-expiry refresh, concurrent-request dedup, audited
on real mints only); GET /api/chat/room resolves a team's Matrix room.
Cached tokens are invalidated immediately on member suspend/leave.
Fixes found while wiring this up:
- createRoom() now explicitly sets history_visibility=shared (PROJ-9)
instead of relying on the private_chat preset's implicit default.
- POST /api/organizations never provisioned a Matrix account for the
org creator (only the invitation-accept path did) — they'd have
seen "Chat wird eingerichtet" forever. Now enqueues the same
provision_matrix_user job invitations use.
Open: SYNAPSE_PUBLIC_BASE_URL needs documenting in backend/.env.example
(blocked by local permission rules on that file — added manually on
the talkhub test host instead), per-tile unread counts need an
app-level Matrix client instead of one per opened team, and Synapse
needs TLS + public reachability before this works outside a LAN.
Verified end-to-end on the talkhub/matrix test LXCs: registered a
throwaway account, created org → department → season → team, joined
the team, minted a token, sent a message directly to Synapse, read it
back from room history.
