@@ -17,4 +17,8 @@ Initial implementation created from `codex-agent-repository-kit` guidance.
 - Gitea Actions can run `npm install`, tests, build, and Docker image publishing.
 - Local Docker is still unavailable in this Codex environment, but Gitea Actions can build the image.
 - Docker publish was fixed by updating `REGISTRY_TOKEN`; Gitea issue #1 is closed.
-- UI redesign follow-ups that need real backend work: persisted invite records, editable room settings, queue reorder/remove server actions, chat persistence/moderation, user ban/remove-friend actions, a real audit/event table, and socket acknowledgements for sync health instead of client-local connection assumptions.
+- Room-scoped persisted invite codes were added to the room Invite rail. Room owners, admins, and room managers can create expiring invite codes and revoke active room invites.
+- Room chat moderation was added through Socket.IO. Room owners, admins, and room managers can delete room chat messages; deletions are audited and rebroadcast to the room.
+- Admin user ban and remove-friendship actions were added. Admins can disable an account while clearing its friendships and explicit room memberships, or remove all friendships for a user without disabling the account.
+- Socket acknowledgements were added for room join and realtime room actions. The room header now shows pending, confirmed, or failed sync acknowledgement state from the server.
+- Remaining UI redesign follow-ups that need real backend work: none currently documented in this handoff.
