+# Unified `channel.state` migration — UI-SDK change reference
+
+> **What this is.** A record of what `stream-chat-react-native` changed on its **UI side** when it
+> moved onto the unified `channel.state` (the `stream-chat` v10 reactive state). It exists as a
+> **guideline** for the equivalent work in the other UI SDK — a map of the *kinds* of change and the
+> surface RN touched, not a checklist of anyone else's files. The model-layer work is already done
+> in the LLC; this covers only the consuming (UI) side. LLC-side and integrator-facing detail lives
+> in `ai-migration-v9-to-v10.md` Part K.
+
+## The LLC change, in one line
+
+`channel.state` became a single `StateStore<ChannelStateData>` — subscribe with
+`useStateStore(channel.state, selector)`, like `thread.state`. The per-concern handles
+(`readStore` / `typingStore` / `membersStore` / `watcherStore` / `ownCapabilitiesStore` /
+`mutedUsersStore`) were removed; the state is flat and gained new slices (`data`, `membership`,
+`muteStatus`, `initialized` / `offlineMode` / `pendingDisposal`, `active`, `aiState`, `watchStatus`).
+AI-indicator state and its connection-loss resets are now LLC-owned.
+
+### Renames and new slices worth knowing before you start
+
+Beyond the flattening, three things changed name or shape rather than location:
+
+- **`channel.disconnected` → `channel.pendingDisposal`**, and the old name is **removed outright — there is
+  no deprecated alias.** (V10 is a major, so the LLC is not carrying aliases through it.) The flag is one-way
+  and terminal: the paginators are disposed, the subscriptions unregistered, and the client drops the channel
+  from `activeChannels`, so it never revives. `getClient()` throws on such an instance. RN had five call
+  sites, all plain property reads.
+- **`WatcherState` → `ChannelWatchState`**, also with no alias. The slice no longer describes only *other*
+  people watching (`watchers`, `watcherCount`) — it now also answers whether *this client* is watching, so
+  the old name was wrong. Anything importing `WatcherState` as a type needs the new name.
+- **`watchStatus`** (new, inside that slice) is a three-value machine, not a boolean:
+  `'watching'` (a live server-side watch, events flowing) · `'wasWatching'` (the watch was lost to a dropped
+  connection and *should* be restored) · `'notWatching'` (never watched, or the consumer called
+  `stopWatching()` — must **not** be restored). A boolean cannot distinguish the last two, which is the whole
+  point: the server keys watches by connection ID, so a dropped socket ends every watch even if it reconnects
+  moments later. `ChannelWatchStatus` is exported as a const from `stream-chat`.
+
+## What RN changed on the UI side
+
+**1. Reads off the removed `*Store` handles → `useStateStore(channel.state, sameSelector)`.**
+Mechanical: delete the `.<X>Store` segment and keep the selector verbatim — the flat
+`ChannelStateData` carries the same top-level keys, so a `(s: ReadState) => O` stays contravariantly
+assignable to `(s: ChannelStateData) => O`. This covered the read / typing / members / watcher /
+ownCapabilities consumers.
+
+**2. Hooks moved off ad-hoc `channel.on(...)` / direct `channel.data` reads onto `channel.state` slices.**
+- name / image / member-count / membership → the `data` / `memberCount` / `membership` slices.
+- mute (`useIsChannelMuted`, `useChannelMuteActive`) → the reactive `muteStatus` slice; dropped the
+  `client.on(...)` subscription + imperative `channel.muteStatus()` call. `useMutedChannels` stayed
+  event-based on purpose (it's the client-global muted-channel *list*, not this channel's status).
+
+**3. Channel lifecycle wired.** `<Channel>` calls `channel.activate()` on mount and
+`channel.deactivate()` on unmount (refcounted). This is what gates the reconnect no-destructive-reseed
+of an open channel's message list.
+
+**4. AI indicator.** `useAIState` became a thin `useStateStore(channel.state, (s) => ({ aiState: s.aiState }))`
+reader — the public `{ aiState }` shape is unchanged, and it now honors `ai_indicator.stop`. The
+connection-loss reset (clear the indicator when the WS drops or on a deliberate close such as
+backgrounding) is **LLC-owned**, so there is no UI code for it. Two consumer sites were tightened for
+the now-literal `AIStates` union: `AITypingIndicatorView`'s allowed-states map and `OutputButtons`'
+membership check.
+
+**5. Test mocks.** Any mock of `channel.state` must now be a real `StateStore` — plain-object mocks
+crash the `useStateStore` hooks (`getLatestValue is not a function`). RN added
+`mock-builders/generator/channelState.ts` for this.
+
+## The RN UI surface that ended up reading `channel.state`
+
+Handles / hooks (the concrete scope RN touched):
+
+- **read/receipts:** `Message/hooks/useMessageReadCount.ts`, `useMessageReadData.ts`,
+  `useMessageDeliveryData.ts`, `Message/Message.tsx`, `MessageList/ScrollToBottomButton.tsx`
+- **typing:** `MessageList/TypingIndicatorContainer.tsx`, `MessageList/hooks/useTypingUsers.ts`
+- **members / watchers / online:** `ChannelList/hooks/useChannelMembersState.ts`,
+  `ChannelList/hooks/useChannelOnlineMemberCount.ts`, `hooks/useChannelMemberCount.ts`,
+  `hooks/useChannelMembershipState.ts`
+- **capabilities:** `Channel/hooks/useCreateOwnCapabilitiesContext.ts`, `hooks/useChannelOwnCapabilities.ts`
+- **channel data (name/image) / preview:** `hooks/useChannelName.ts`, `hooks/useChannelImage.ts`,
+  `ChannelPreview/hooks/useChannelPreviewData.ts`
+- **mute:** `ChannelPreview/hooks/useIsChannelMuted.ts`
+- **composer / cooldown:** `MessageInput/MessageComposer.tsx`, `MessageInput/hooks/useCooldownRemaining.tsx`,
+  `MessageInput/hooks/useIsCooldownActive.ts`
+- **AI:** `AITypingIndicatorView/hooks/useAIState.ts`
+- **test helper:** `mock-builders/generator/channelState.ts`
+
+## Gotchas when consuming `channel.state`
+
+Things that bit us / are easy to get wrong subscribing to the unified store:
+
+- **Selectors must be referentially stable — define them at module scope.** `useStateStore` keys
+  its subscription on `[store, selector]`, so an inline `(s) => ({ … })` re-subscribes on every
+  render.
+- **Selectors must return direct slice references, not freshly-computed values.** `useStateStore`
+  shallow-compares the selected output per key with `===`. `(s) => ({ read: s.read })` is fine;
+  `(s) => ({ members: Object.values(s.members) })` returns a new array every call, defeats the
+  cache, and re-renders (or loops) forever. Do any deriving in the component, after the selector.
+- **The selector must return an object or a readonly array, never a bare value.** Wrap it:
+  `(s) => ({ read: s.read })`, not `(s) => s.read`.
+- **The convenience getters are non-reactive.** Reading `channel.state.members` / `.read` /
+  `.typing` / `.watchers` directly gives a one-shot snapshot; it does **not** subscribe. Use
+  `useStateStore(channel.state, selector)` for anything that must re-render.
+- **Drive unread badges off `read`, not `unreadCount`.** `channel.state.unreadCount` is a
+  non-reactive getter over the store (it's what `channel.countUnread()` returns and what
+  scroll-gating reads) — it derives from `read[ownUserId].unread_messages` rather than holding a
+  count of its own, so there is nothing separate to `useStateStore`-select. Subscribe to `read` and
+  read `read[userId]?.unread_messages` for a badge that re-renders.
+- **The own unread count is now gated, which changes what `read[me]` reports.** Collapsing
+  `unreadCount` into the read slice moved that field's two gates onto the own read row: a message that does
+  not count as unread (silent, shadowed, from a muted user, in a muted channel) no longer bumps it, and
+  neither does one that arrives while the consumer is viewing the newest message (reported to the LLC via
+  `messagePaginator.setViewingLive`). Previously the row bumped unconditionally. Net effect on a badge reading
+  `read[userId]?.unread_messages`: no transient +1 while the user sits at the bottom of an open channel, and
+  silent/muted messages stop inflating it. It self-heals from the server on the next `message.read` or query.
+- **Reactivity needs a store write, not a nested mutation.** Subscribers update only when the write
+  side reassigns / `partialNext`es (e.g. reassign `channel.data` or `channel.state.membership`).
+  Mutating a nested field in place (`channel.data.name = …`, `channel.state.membership.user = …`)
+  changes the value but fires no notification.
+
+## Finding the equivalent surface
+
+Pattern-level, SDK-agnostic — how to locate the same surface in a codebase (what to do with it is
+the reader's call):
+
+- Grep for every `channel.state.<X>Store` read → maps to change #1 (drop the segment, keep the selector).
+- Grep for bespoke `channel.on('ai_indicator.*')`, `channel.on('notification.channel_mutes_updated')`,
+  or member/watcher event subscriptions in the UI → a `channel.state` slice (#2 / #4) likely covers it now.
+- Any test that mocks `channel.state` as a plain object → change #5.
