10.0.0-rc.20 (2026-10-09)
⚠ BREAKING CHANGES
- client.activeChannels is removed; use client.channelManager.get(cid) and client.channelManager.values().
- client.hydrateActiveChannels() is renamed to client.hydrateChannels().
- client.getChannelById() and client.getChannelByMembers() are removed; use client.channel() or client.channelManager.ensure({ type, id?, data? }).
- thread.deactivate() is removed; thread.activate() returns the function that ends the activation.
- channel._disconnect() is renamed to channel.disconnect().
- channel.disconnected is removed; read the read-only channel.pendingDisposal instead, which only channel.disconnect() sets.
- when a channel created from members gets a cid another stored instance already holds, the stored instance stays, as in v9, and the new one is marked channel.supersededBy; if the new one is open and the stored one isn't, its unsent composition moves to the stored one, so UIs holding the new instance should switch to channel.supersededBy.
- channel.initialized is set by query() and create() too, not only by watch().
- channel search results are not watched; watch a result when it is opened.
- MessageSearchSource no longer watches the channels it fetches for its results; watch the channel when a result is opened, e.g. with jumpToMessage(id, { watchChannel: true }).
