Feed and Chat Flow

Feed

Feed supports:

• Community posts
• Comments and threaded context
• Mentions and notification creation

Posting rights are controlled by delegated member permission feed_post.

Chat

Chat supports:

• Community channels
• Channel messages
• Realtime message updates

Runtime availability is gated by global feature flag chat_module_v1.

Flag-Aware UX

When chat is disabled:

• Chat tab is hidden from navigation
• Chat routes show an unavailable state

This prevents partial exposure during staged rollout.

Moderation Baseline

Current baseline is role and membership constrained access. Advanced moderation workflows can be layered later without schema break.
