Toora St Chat - Development Roadmap

Core Fixes (COMPLETED)

• Fix message loading after login - ensure auth token is attached to all PocketBase requests
• Fix Apprise notification routing - send only to selected recipients
• PocketBase Delete Rule: Set to @request.auth.id = sender (creator can delete)
• Fix desktop "New Message" button visibility (removed lg:hidden)
• Fix Save/Read/Delete with proper error handling and UI feedback
• Fix send message - removed recipients relation field from payload (causing 400)
• Fix auto-scroll issue - removed scrollIntoView and messagesEndRef
• Composer auto-hides after successful send
• Fix Apprise CORS in dev - added /notify proxy to vite.config.ts
  • Dev server now proxies apprise requests through localhost:3000

Pages & Navigation (COMPLETED)

• Remove Archive page and nav link
• Saved/Pinned Messages panel at bottom of Inbox (collapsible)

Messaging (COMPLETED)

• Recipient-aware sending (Family or individual)
• Message reading panel - click to expand inline
• Saved messages (bookmark icon, toggle save, pinned section)
• Auto-cleanup - load only last 30 regular messages
  • Saved messages loaded separately, no age limit

Attachments (PARTIAL)

• Inline image preview and download link
• Upload via PocketBase media collection (UI ready, needs backend)

Production Notes

• Apprise CORS on production requires .35 Caddy to allow chat.lab.audasmedia.com.au origin
• This is a server config issue, not frontend code

Explicitly NOT Doing

• No search, reactions, archive, threading, read receipts

Design Principles

• Family message sender, not full chat system
• Simple, fast, mobile-first
• PocketBase single source of truth
