Web client (also what the desktop app runs):

- Simplified Sliding Sync (MSC4186) when the homeserver advertises
  org.matrix.simplified_msc3575. src/matrix/sliding.ts answers the SDK's
  GET /sync with a sliding sync request and rewrites the response into
  the /sync shape, as the Android app does; the SDK's own sliding sync
  mode doesn't sort thread replies into threads. 20 rooms first, then
  every room (up to 1000); to_device, e2ee, account data, receipts and
  typing extensions; M_UNKNOWN_POS starts a new connection. The SDK's
  /members?at=<sync token> drops the token, which here is ours. Settings
  can switch back to /sync.
- Notifications for new messages and incoming calls while Warp isn't in
  front, by the account's push rules, evaluated after decryption. The
  browser's Notification API once turned on in Settings, or the desktop
  app's bridge (window.warpDesktop). One per room; a click opens it.
- Voice messages: record from the composer, sent as m.audio with
  MSC3245's voice marker and MSC1767's duration and waveform (encrypted
  in encrypted rooms); a waveform player in the timeline.
- @warp/ui: a slot for extra composer buttons; bell-off, play and pause
  icons.

Desktop app:

- System notifications through Wails' notifications service, fed by
  /_desktop/bridge.js (/_desktop/notify, JSON only); clicking one shows
  the window and opens the room.
- Tray icon with Open and Quit; closing the window hides it (a one-time
  notification says so), File > Quit ends it. The page title goes to
  the window and the tray tooltip, the unread count to the taskbar or
  Dock badge.
- Auto-update from a Wails update manifest at DESKTOP_UPDATE_URL: a quiet
  check a minute after start and every six hours, a notification when a
  newer version exists, Help > Check for updates opens the update window.
  Optional signature key (DESKTOP_UPDATE_KEY). Linux package installs
  leave updates to the package manager. build/manifest writes the
  manifest.
- Per-user NSIS installer (make desktop-windows-installer), the macOS
  bundle zipped for the updater, a desktop CI job, and a Desktop release
  workflow that builds all three platforms and the manifest.

Tested on Windows against a local homeserver: sliding sync with E2EE,
threads and a server restart; notifications (toast history), close to
tray, relaunch restoring the window; voice messages recorded, sent and
played, encrypted too; the update check finding a newer version. Not
tested: installing an update, the NSIS installer, CI, macOS and Linux.
Code signing needs certificates and isn't done.

- Replies: Reply on a message puts it above the composer; the reply
  quotes it (sender and first line), and the quote goes to the message.
  Sent without the quoted fallback (Matrix 1.13); the fallback in older
  replies is not shown.
- Reactions: the six quick ones of the Android app or any other emoji,
  chips under the message with counts, yours highlighted; a chip adds
  yours or takes it back.
- Threads: matrix-js-sdk's thread support is on. Reply in thread opens
  the thread beside the room with its own composer; the root shows
  "N replies" and the last reply; Threads in the header lists them.
  Receipts are per thread (MSC3771): the room is marked read with its
  read marker and a separate receipt for "main", since /read_markers'
  receipt has no thread_id and would read every thread. Unread counts
  per thread (MSC3773) and a dot on unread threads.
  Two SDK quirks worked around: the thread view creates the thread
  object when a thread starts here (else the first reply's remote echo
  is dropped until reload), and the reply count is re-read from the
  root's bundled count after replies arrive (the SDK can count one
  twice).
- Spaces: kept out of the room list; a picker narrows the list to a
  space's rooms and its subspaces'. A space's page (/hierarchy) lists
  its rooms with Open or Join; admins add existing rooms, create new
  ones in it and take rooms out. New space in the + menu and picker.
- The room composer moved into RoomComposer.vue, shared by the room
  and the thread pane. New thread and space icons in apps/ui.
- Dev server: the Rust crypto's .wasm was lost to vite's pre-bundling,
  so E2EE never started under `pnpm web:dev`; the package is now served
  as it is in dev.

Server: /versions lists v1.1 to v1.14. matrix-js-sdk checks for the
exact version a feature came in, and with only v1.13 and v1.14 it kept
threads, per-thread unread counts, recursive relations and intentional
mentions off.

Tested in the browser against a local server: replies, reactions,
threads (new and existing, in plain and encrypted rooms, receipts
checked on the server) and spaces.
