# Contributing
MetoYou is an npm-managed monorepo.
## Packages
| Path | Purpose |
| --- | --- |
| `toju-app/` | Angular renderer, chat client, voice UI, plugin runtime. |
| `electron/` | Electron main process, preload bridge, local database, local REST API, docs host. |
| `server/` | Node/TypeScript signaling server and server-directory HTTP API. |
| `website/` | Angular marketing site. |
| `docs-site/` | Docusaurus documentation site. |
| `e2e/` | Playwright browser and WebRTC tests. |
## Setup
Install root dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```
Install server dependencies when working on the signaling server:
```bash
cd server
npm install
```
## Development Commands
From the repository root:
```bash
npm run dev
```
Useful focused commands:
```bash
npm run build
npm run build:electron
npm run build:docs
npm run server:build
npm run lint
npm run test
npm run test:e2e -- tests/chat-dm-flow.spec.ts
```
Run the Docusaurus dev server:
```bash
cd docs-site
npm install
npm run start
```
Build static docs for Electron packaging:
```bash
npm run build:docs
```
## Repository Rules
- Keep changes inside the package that owns the behavior.
- Do not edit generated output in `dist/`, `dist-electron/`, `dist-server/`, `server/dist/`, `.angular/`, or `node_modules/`.
- Renderer-facing Electron capabilities must stay aligned across implementation, preload, and renderer bridge types.
- Signal-server plugin support stores metadata only. Plugin execution belongs to the client runtime.
- Update this documentation when user workflows, plugin APIs, REST routes, DOM structure, or development commands change.
## Documentation Checklist
When you change a related area, update these pages:
| Change | Docs to check |
| --- | --- |
| Voice UI or settings | User Guide: Voice Channels and Calls, Developer Guide: App Pages and DOM Structure. |
| Text channels, messages, DMs | User Guide: Text and Direct Messages, plugin message API pages. |
| Plugin manifest/API/runtime | Plugin Development pages and LLM Plugin Builder Guide. |
| Local REST API routes or schemas | Developer Guide: Local REST API and `electron/api/openapi.ts`. |
| Docusaurus hosting | Developer Guide: Docusaurus Site and Desktop and Local API. |

# Docusaurus Site
The Docusaurus documentation lives in `docs-site/` and builds to static files in `docs-site/build/`.
## Structure
```text
docs-site/
docusaurus.config.ts
sidebars.ts
docs/
intro.md
user-guide/
developer/
plugin-development/
src/css/custom.css
```
## Development
Use the Docusaurus development server while writing docs:
```bash
cd docs-site
npm run start
```
Build the static site:
```bash
npm run build
```
From the repo root, use:
```bash
npm run build:docs
```
## Electron Hosting
Electron serves the built site through the local API server when Docusaurus docs are enabled.
| Route | Purpose |
| --- | --- |
| `/docusaurus` | Docusaurus entrypoint. |
| `/docusaurus/*` | Static Docusaurus assets and generated pages. |
The endpoint is off until the user opens documentation from the desktop app or enables it through local API settings. Electron serves static files only; it does not run `docusaurus start`.
## Sidebar Rules
Navigation is controlled by `docs-site/sidebars.ts`. Add every new page there unless it is intentionally hidden. Use categories for larger sections so non-technical users can find the user guide separately from developer material.
## Content Rules
- User docs should avoid implementation jargon.
- Developer docs should name exact files, commands, routes, capabilities, and data shapes.
- Plugin API examples should use literal sample input data.
- REST docs should stay aligned with `electron/api/openapi.ts` and `electron/api/router.ts`.
- DOM docs should stay aligned with Angular routes and component selectors.

# App Pages and DOM Structure
This page maps the app routes and important DOM areas. It is useful for plugin authors, testers, and contributors who need stable mental models of where UI mounts.
## Angular Routes
| Route | Component | Purpose |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `/` | Redirect | Redirects to `/search`. |
| `/login` | `LoginComponent` | User login. |
| `/register` | `RegisterComponent` | User registration. |
| `/invite/:inviteId` | `InviteComponent` | Resolve and accept invite links. |
| `/search` | `ServerSearchComponent` | Search and join servers. |
| `/room/:roomId` | `ChatRoomComponent` | Main server page with text, voice, members, and plugin panels. |
| `/dm` | `DmWorkspaceComponent` | Direct-message workspace. |
| `/dm/:conversationId` | `DmWorkspaceComponent` | A selected direct-message conversation. |
| `/settings` | `SettingsComponent` | App, voice, server, plugin, desktop, theme, local API settings. |
| `/plugin-store` | `PluginStoreComponent` | Browse plugin sources and install/update plugins. |
| `/plugins/:pluginId/:pageId` | `PluginPageHostComponent` | Host for plugin app pages registered with `api.ui.registerAppPage()`. |
## Page Shell
The renderer is an Angular app. The common shell contains router outlet content plus persistent app surfaces such as the server rail, title bar integrations, settings modals, and floating voice controls.
High-level structure:
```html
<app-root>
<router-outlet></router-outlet>
<!-- global dialogs, overlays, floating voice controls, and desktop integrations -->
</app-root>
```
## Server Page DOM
The server page is the most important page for plugins.
```html
<app-chat-room>
<app-servers-rail></app-servers-rail>
<app-rooms-side-panel>
<section>Text Channels</section>
<section>Voice Channels</section>
<section data-testid="plugin-room-side-panel">
<app-plugin-render-host></app-plugin-render-host>
</section>
<section>Members</section>
</app-rooms-side-panel>
<main>
<app-voice-workspace></app-voice-workspace>
<app-chat-messages>
<app-message-list></app-message-list>
<app-typing-indicator></app-typing-indicator>
<app-message-composer></app-message-composer>
<app-klipy-gif-picker></app-klipy-gif-picker>
</app-chat-messages>
</main>
</app-chat-room>
```
## Text Channel Area
Text channel UI is owned by the chat domain.
```html
<app-chat-messages>
<app-message-list>
<app-message-item></app-message-item>
</app-message-list>
<app-message-overlays></app-message-overlays>
<app-typing-indicator></app-typing-indicator>
<app-message-composer></app-message-composer>
</app-chat-messages>
```
Plugin touchpoints:
- `api.ui.registerComposerAction()` adds composer actions.
- `api.ui.registerEmbedRenderer()` renders declared custom embed payloads.
- `api.ui.mountElement()` can mount into a selector such as `app-chat-messages` when the plugin has `ui.dom`.
## Voice Area
Voice UI is split between channel membership, controls, and media workspace.
```html
<app-rooms-side-panel>
<section>Voice Channels</section>
</app-rooms-side-panel>
<app-voice-controls></app-voice-controls>
<app-floating-voice-controls></app-floating-voice-controls>
<app-voice-workspace>
<app-voice-workspace-stream-tile></app-voice-workspace-stream-tile>
</app-voice-workspace>
```
Plugin touchpoints:
- `api.media.playAudioClip()` plays local audio.
- `api.media.addCustomAudioStream()` contributes audio to voice handling.
- `api.media.addCustomVideoStream()` contributes a video stream.
- `api.channels.addAudioChannel()` creates a voice channel entry when the plugin has channel management rights.
## Plugin Store and Manager DOM
```html
<app-plugin-store>
<!-- source management, search, plugin cards, install/update/uninstall actions -->
</app-plugin-store>
<app-plugin-manager>
<!-- installed plugins, capability grants, activate/reload/unload, logs, docs -->
</app-plugin-manager>
```
Plugin pages registered through `api.ui.registerAppPage()` render at `/plugins/:pluginId/:pageId`:
```html
<app-plugin-page-host>
<app-plugin-render-host></app-plugin-render-host>
</app-plugin-page-host>
```
## Plugin Render Host
`PluginRenderHostComponent` accepts plugin render functions that return either an `HTMLElement` or a string. Returning an `HTMLElement` is preferred for interactive UI. Returned strings are rendered as simple text content.
## Stable Selectors for Tests and Plugins
Prefer plugin APIs over DOM selectors. When direct DOM mounting is necessary, use stable app selectors and keep cleanup through the returned disposable.
Common targets:
| Selector | Area |
| --- | --- |
| `body` | Global overlays or modals. |
| `app-chat-messages` | Main text channel surface. |
| `app-rooms-side-panel` | Server side panel. |
| `[data-testid="plugin-room-side-panel"]` | Plugin side-panel area in the server sidebar. |
Avoid depending on Tailwind utility classes; they are layout details and may change.

# Local REST API
The MetoYou desktop app exposes an optional local HTTP API for scripts and tools. It is implemented in Electron and reads local desktop data.
## Enable the API
1. Open Settings.
2. Open Local API settings.
3. Enable the local server.
4. Choose a port. The default is `17878`.
5. Add trusted signaling server URLs for authentication.
6. Enable Scalar docs if you want `/docs`.
7. Enable Docusaurus docs if you want `/docusaurus`.
By default the server binds to `127.0.0.1`. Only enable LAN exposure when you understand the risk.
## Authentication
Protected routes require a bearer token. Get one by posting username, password, and an allowed signaling server URL.
```bash
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:17878/api/auth/login \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"username": "alice",
"password": "correct horse battery staple",
"serverUrl": "https://tojusignal.example.com"
}'
```
Example response:
```json
{
"token": "local_4cddf95c5b8c4b6f9e0c",
"expiresAt": 1777477200000,
"user": {
"id": "user-alice-01",
"username": "alice",
"displayName": "Alice"
}
}
```
Use the token:
```bash
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:17878/api/profile \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer local_4cddf95c5b8c4b6f9e0c'
```
Logout revokes the current token:
```bash
curl -i -X POST http://127.0.0.1:17878/api/auth/logout \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer local_4cddf95c5b8c4b6f9e0c'
```
## OpenAPI and Scalar
| Route | Auth | Purpose |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `GET /api/openapi.json` | No | OpenAPI 3.1 document. |
| `GET /docs` | No | Scalar API reference when enabled. |
## Public Routes
### GET /api/health
Checks whether the local API server is running.
```bash
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:17878/api/health

"version": "1.0.0",
"timestamp": 1777473600000,
"exposeOnLan": false
}
```
### GET /api/openapi.json
Returns the machine-readable API document.
```bash
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:17878/api/openapi.json
```
### POST /api/auth/login
Issues a local bearer token after credentials are validated by an allowed signaling server.
Request body:
```json
{
"username": "alice",
"password": "correct horse battery staple",
"serverUrl": "https://tojusignal.example.com"
}
```
Common errors:
| Status | Error code | Meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 400 | `INVALID_REQUEST` | Missing username, password, or server URL. |
| 403 | `NO_ALLOWED_SERVERS` | No allowed signaling servers are configured. |
| 403 | `SERVER_NOT_ALLOWED` | The server URL is not in the allowed list. |
| 401 | `INVALID_CREDENTIALS` | Signaling server rejected the login. |
| 502 | `UPSTREAM_UNREACHABLE` | The signaling server could not be reached. |

```json
{
"key": "metoyou_currentUserId",
"value": "user-alice-01"
}
```
## Data Model Notes
Rooms, users, messages, reactions, attachments, and bans are returned from local desktop persistence. Many schemas allow additional properties because the local database can carry richer app state than the REST docs need to guarantee.
## Security Notes
- Keep the API bound to `127.0.0.1` unless LAN access is required.
- Only add signaling servers you trust to the allowed list.
- Bearer tokens are local to the running desktop app.
- Stop the local API server to clear issued tokens.

# MetoYou Documentation
MetoYou is a desktop-first chat stack with a peer-to-peer product client, an Electron desktop shell, a Node signaling server, local persistence, realtime voice/video, a local automation API, and a client plugin runtime.
MetoYou is a desktop-first chat app with text channels, voice channels, direct messages, plugins, local desktop storage, a local REST API, and a Docusaurus documentation site bundled into the app.
The product experience is intentionally close to a modern team chat application:
This site is split into three paths:
- servers organize communities or workspaces;
- text channels keep room conversations scoped and searchable;
- direct messages stay separate from server context;
- voice, video, and screen sharing use WebRTC peer connections;
- invite links help members join the current server;
- local desktop settings control data, updates, plugins, and automation access.
- **User Guide** explains the app in non-technical terms: servers, text channels, voice channels, screen sharing, direct messages, plugins, and desktop settings.
- **Developer Guide** explains how to run the repo, how the app is structured, how Docusaurus is served, the app DOM/page structure, and the local REST API.
- **Plugin Development** explains how to build plugins, declare capabilities, distribute bundles, and call every exposed plugin API with concrete examples.
The Electron app also hosts this documentation. The docs endpoint is not a separate web server process: it is served from the same opt-in local HTTP server used for the Local API, and it only serves static files generated by Docusaurus.

# Channels API
The channels API reads, selects, creates, renames, and removes server channels.
## Required Capabilities
| Method | Capability |
| --- | --- |
| `channels.list()` | `channels.read` |
| `channels.select(channelId)` | `channels.read` |
| `channels.addAudioChannel(request)` | `channels.manage` |
| `channels.addVideoChannel(request)` | `channels.manage` |
| `channels.rename(channelId, name)` | `channels.manage` |
| `channels.remove(channelId)` | `channels.manage` |
## List Channels
```js
export function activate(context) {
const channels = context.api.channels.list();
context.api.logger.info('Channels', channels.map((channel) => ({
id: channel.id,
name: channel.name,
type: channel.type
})));
}
```
Example channel list:
```json
[
{ "id": "general", "name": "general", "type": "text", "position": 0 },
{ "id": "support", "name": "support", "type": "text", "position": 1 },
{ "id": "lobby", "name": "Lobby", "type": "audio", "position": 10 }
]
```
## Select a Channel
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.channels.select('support');
}
```
## Add a Voice Channel
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.channels.addAudioChannel({
id: 'raid-voice',
name: 'Raid Voice',
position: 20
});
}
```
## Add a Video Channel Section
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.channels.addVideoChannel({
id: 'watch-party-video',
name: 'Watch Party',
position: 30
});
}
```
## Rename and Remove
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.channels.rename('raid-voice', 'Raid Voice - Tonight');
context.api.channels.remove('old-event-room');
}
```
Channel creation, rename, and removal should be user-confirmed because they change the shared server structure.

# Context and Logging
Context and logging are available to every plugin. They do not require privileged capabilities.
## context.getCurrent()
Reads the current interaction context.
```js
export function activate(context) {
const current = context.api.context.getCurrent();
context.api.logger.info('Current context', {
serverName: current.server?.name ?? 'No server open',
textChannel: current.textChannel?.name ?? 'No text channel selected',
voiceChannel: current.voiceChannel?.name ?? 'Not connected to voice',
user: current.user?.displayName ?? 'No user'
});
}
```
Example context shape:
```json
{
"source": "manual",
"server": { "id": "room-7ebdde75", "name": "Friday Game Night" },
"textChannel": { "id": "general", "name": "general", "type": "text" },
"voiceChannel": { "id": "lobby", "name": "Lobby", "type": "audio" },
"user": { "id": "user-alice-01", "displayName": "Alice" }
}
```
## Action Context
Composer, toolbar, and profile actions receive context directly.
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.subscriptions.push(context.api.ui.registerToolbarAction('where-am-i', {
label: 'Where am I?',
run: (actionContext) => {
context.api.logger.info('Toolbar action context', {
source: actionContext.source,
serverId: actionContext.server?.id,
textChannelId: actionContext.textChannel?.id,
voiceChannelId: actionContext.voiceChannel?.id
});
}
}));
}
```
Capability required: `ui.pages` for the toolbar action. The context object itself needs no extra capability.
## Logger Methods
```js

# Events API
Plugin events allow plugins to publish and subscribe to declared server or P2P events.
## Required Capabilities
| Method | Capability |
| --- | --- |
| `events.publishServer(eventName, payload)` | `events.server.publish` |
| `events.subscribeServer(subscription)` | `events.server.subscribe` |
| `events.publishP2p(eventName, payload)` | `events.p2p.publish` |
| `events.subscribeP2p(subscription)` | `events.p2p.subscribe` |
## Declare Events in the Manifest
```json
{
"events": [
{
"eventName": "poll:vote",
"direction": "p2pHint",
"scope": "channel",
"maxPayloadBytes": 2048
},
{
"eventName": "moderation:flag",
"direction": "serverRelay",
"scope": "server",
"maxPayloadBytes": 4096
}
]
}
```
## Publish and Subscribe to P2P Events
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.subscriptions.push(context.api.events.subscribeP2p({
eventName: 'poll:vote',
handler: (event) => {
context.api.logger.info('Vote received', {
optionId: event.payload?.optionId,
voterName: event.payload?.voterName,
eventId: event.eventId
});
}
}));
context.api.events.publishP2p('poll:vote', {
pollId: 'raid-night-2026-04-29',
optionId: 'dungeon',
voterName: 'Alice'

context.subscriptions.push(context.api.events.subscribeServer({
eventName: 'moderation:flag',
handler: (event) => {
context.api.logger.warn('Moderation flag received', {
messageId: event.payload?.messageId,
reason: event.payload?.reason
});
}
}));
context.api.events.publishServer('moderation:flag', {
messageId: 'msg-20260429-flagged',
reason: 'Possible spam link',

# Message Bus API
The plugin message bus sends plugin-only P2P events. It can also include bounded latest-message snapshots for plugins that coordinate around recent chat state.
## Required Capabilities
| Method | Capability |
| --- | --- |
| `messageBus.publish(request)` | `events.p2p.publish`, plus `messages.read` if `includeLatestMessages` is true |
| `messageBus.sendLatestMessages(request?)` | `events.p2p.publish` and `messages.read` |
| `messageBus.subscribe(subscription)` | `events.p2p.subscribe`, plus `messages.read` if replaying latest messages |
## Subscribe
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.subscriptions.push(context.api.messageBus.subscribe({
topic: 'poll:votes',
channelId: 'general',
replayLatest: true,
latestMessageLimit: 10,
handler: (event) => {
context.api.logger.info('Poll bus event', {
topic: event.topic,
choice: event.payload?.choice,
messageCount: event.messages?.length ?? 0
});
}
}));
}
```
## Publish
```js
export function activate(context) {
const envelope = context.api.messageBus.publish({
topic: 'poll:votes',
channelId: 'general',
payload: {
pollId: 'raid-night-2026-04-29',
choice: 'healer',
voter: 'Alice'
},
includeLatestMessages: true,
includeSelf: true,
latestMessageLimit: 10,
sinceTimestamp: 1777470000000
});
context.api.logger.info('Published poll event', { eventId: envelope.eventId });
}
```
Example envelope:
```json
{
"eventId": "plugin-bus-1777473600000-1",
"pluginId": "example.polls",
"roomId": "room-7ebdde75",
"channelId": "general",
"topic": "poll:votes",
"sentAt": 1777473600000,
"payload": {
"pollId": "raid-night-2026-04-29",
"choice": "healer",
"voter": "Alice"
},
"messages": [
{ "id": "msg-1", "content": "Raid tonight?", "channelId": "general" }
]
}
```
## Send Latest Messages
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.messageBus.sendLatestMessages({
topic: 'chat:snapshot',
channelId: 'support',
limit: 25,
includeDeleted: false,
sinceTimestamp: 1777460000000,
targetPeerId: 'peer-muse-laptop'
});
}
```
Use the message bus for plugin coordination. Do not use it for normal user chat messages; use `messages.send()` for that.

# Messages and Typing API
The messages API reads current messages, sends messages, edits or deletes plugin-owned messages, moderates messages, syncs messages, and exposes typing state.
## Required Capabilities
| Method | Capability |
| --- | --- |
| `messages.readCurrent()` | `messages.read` |
| `messages.send(content, channelId?)` | `messages.send` |
| `messages.sendAsPluginUser(request)` | `messages.send` |
| `messages.setTyping(isTyping, channelId?)` | `messages.send` |
| `messages.subscribeTyping(handler)` | `messages.read` |
| `messages.edit(messageId, content)` | `messages.editOwn` |
| `messages.delete(messageId)` | `messages.deleteOwn` |
| `messages.moderateDelete(messageId)` | `messages.moderate` |
| `messages.sync(messages)` | `messages.sync` |
## Read Current Messages
```js
export function activate(context) {
const messages = context.api.messages.readCurrent();
context.api.logger.info('Current messages', messages.slice(-3).map((message) => ({
id: message.id,
channelId: message.channelId,
senderName: message.senderName,
content: message.content
})));
}
```
## Send a Message
```js
export function activate(context) {
const created = context.api.messages.send(
'Reminder: raid starts at 20:00. Bring repairs and snacks.',
'general'
);
context.api.logger.info('Sent reminder', { messageId: created.id });
}
```
## Send as a Plugin User
```js
export function activate(context) {
const botUserId = context.api.server.registerPluginUser({
id: 'poll-bot',
displayName: 'Poll Bot'
});
context.api.messages.sendAsPluginUser({
pluginUserId: botUserId,
channelId: 'general',
content: 'Poll is open: react with 1 for dungeon, 2 for arena, 3 for crafting.'
});
}
```
Capabilities required: `users.manage` and `messages.send`.
## Edit and Delete Plugin-Owned Messages
```js
export function activate(context) {
const message = context.api.messages.send('Draft event reminder', 'announcements');
context.api.messages.edit(message.id, 'Event reminder: voice meetup starts in 15 minutes.');
context.api.messages.delete(message.id);
}
```
## Moderation Delete
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.messages.moderateDelete('msg-spam-20260429-001');
}
```
Use moderation from explicit moderator actions, not automatic activation.
## Typing State
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.messages.setTyping(true, 'general');
setTimeout(() => {
context.api.messages.setTyping(false, 'general');
}, 1500);
context.subscriptions.push(context.api.messages.subscribeTyping((event) => {
context.api.logger.info('Typing event', {
displayName: event.displayName,
isTyping: event.isTyping,
channelId: event.channelId,
serverId: event.serverId,
voiceChannel: event.voiceChannel?.name ?? null
});
}));
}
```
Example typing event:
```json
{
"serverId": "room-7ebdde75",
"channelId": "general",
"userId": "user-muse-01",
"displayName": "Muse",
"isTyping": true
}
```
## Sync Messages
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.messages.sync([
{
id: 'external-standup-001',
roomId: 'room-7ebdde75',
channelId: 'standup',
senderId: 'standup-importer',
senderName: 'Standup Importer',
content: 'Imported note: Alice is working on plugin docs.',
timestamp: 1777473600000,
isDeleted: false
}
]);
}
```
Sync should preserve message ids and timestamps from the source system when possible.

# P2P and Media API
P2P APIs send plugin data to connected peers. Media APIs play audio and contribute custom streams.
## Required Capabilities
| Method | Capability |
| --- | --- |
| `p2p.connectedPeers()` | `p2p.data` |
| `p2p.broadcastData(eventName, payload)` | `p2p.data` |
| `p2p.sendData(peerId, eventName, payload)` | `p2p.data` |

| `media.addCustomVideoStream(request)` | `media.addVideoStream` |
| `media.setInputVolume(volume)` | `audio.volume` |
| `media.setOutputVolume(volume)` | `audio.volume` |
## Connected Peers
```js
export function activate(context) {
const peerIds = context.api.p2p.connectedPeers();
context.api.logger.info('Connected peers', { peerIds });
}
```
## Broadcast Data
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.p2p.broadcastData('soundboard:played', {
soundId: 'airhorn-short',
label: 'Airhorn',
playedBy: 'Alice',
playedAt: 1777473600000
});
}
```
## Send Data to One Peer
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.p2p.sendData('peer-muse-laptop', 'private-tool:ping', {
requestId: 'ping-20260429-001',
message: 'Are you receiving plugin data?'
});
}
```
## Play an Audio Clip
```js
export async function activate(context) {
await context.api.media.playAudioClip({
url: 'https://cdn.example.com/metoyou/sounds/chime.wav',
volume: 0.65
});
}
```
## Add a Custom Audio Stream
```js
export async function activate(context) {
const audioContext = new AudioContext();
const oscillator = audioContext.createOscillator();
const gain = audioContext.createGain();
const destination = audioContext.createMediaStreamDestination();
oscillator.type = 'sine';
oscillator.frequency.value = 440;
gain.gain.value = 0.03;
oscillator.connect(gain);
gain.connect(destination);
oscillator.start();
await context.api.media.addCustomAudioStream({
label: 'Tuning tone',
stream: destination.stream
});
setTimeout(async () => {
oscillator.stop();
await audioContext.close();
}, 1000);
}
```
## Add a Custom Video Stream
```js
export async function activate(context) {
const canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
canvas.width = 1280;
canvas.height = 720;
const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
ctx.fillStyle = '#111827';
ctx.fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
ctx.fillStyle = '#ffffff';
ctx.font = '48px sans-serif';
ctx.fillText('Plugin camera scene', 80, 120);
const stream = canvas.captureStream(15);
await context.api.media.addCustomVideoStream({
label: 'Plugin camera scene',
stream
});
}
```
## Set Volumes
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.media.setInputVolume(0.85);
context.api.media.setOutputVolume(0.75);
}
```
Use media APIs with visible controls and clear user consent. Unexpected audio or video is a poor user experience.

# Profile API
The profile API reads and updates the current user's local profile details.
## Required Capabilities
| Method | Capability |
| --- | --- |
| `profile.getCurrent()` | `profile.read` |
| `profile.update(profile)` | `profile.write` |
| `profile.updateAvatar(avatar)` | `profile.write` |
## Read Current Profile
```js
export function activate(context) {
const user = context.api.profile.getCurrent();
context.api.logger.info('Current profile', {
id: user?.id,
displayName: user?.displayName,
username: user?.username
});
}
```
Example result:
```json
{
"id": "user-alice-01",
"username": "alice",
"displayName": "Alice",
"description": "Raids on Fridays",
"avatarUrl": "/avatars/alice.webp"
}
```
## Update Display Profile
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.profile.update({
displayName: 'Alice - Support Lead',
description: 'Available for onboarding and support questions.'
});
}
```
## Update Avatar
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.profile.updateAvatar({
avatarUrl: 'https://cdn.example.com/metoyou/avatars/alice-support.png',
avatarMime: 'image/png',
avatarHash: 'sha256:9df5d5e4b0d8f41f3a3cf5d1f5a2c1f4'
});
}
```
Use `profile.write` carefully. A plugin that changes a user's identity should explain why in its readme and UI.

# Server API
The server API reads the active server, registers plugin-owned users, and updates server settings or permissions.
## Required Capabilities
| Method | Capability |
| --- | --- |
| `server.getCurrent()` | `server.read` |
| `server.registerPluginUser(request)` | `users.manage` |
| `server.updatePermissions(permissions)` | `server.manage` |
| `server.updateSettings(settings)` | `server.manage` |
## Read Current Server
```js
export function activate(context) {
const server = context.api.server.getCurrent();
context.api.logger.info('Current server', {
id: server?.id,
name: server?.name,
topic: server?.topic,
isPrivate: server?.isPrivate
});
}
```
## Register a Plugin User
Plugin users are useful for bot-style messages.
```js
export function activate(context) {
const botUserId = context.api.server.registerPluginUser({
id: 'standup-helper-bot',
displayName: 'Standup Helper',
avatarUrl: 'https://cdn.example.com/metoyou/plugins/standup-helper.png'
});
context.api.messages.sendAsPluginUser({
pluginUserId: botUserId,
channelId: 'general',
content: 'Standup reminder: share yesterday, today, and blockers.'

}
```
Capabilities required: `users.manage` and `messages.send`.
## Update Server Settings
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.server.updateSettings({
name: 'Friday Game Night',
topic: 'Co-op games, voice chat, and clips',
description: 'A friendly server for Friday sessions.',
maxUsers: 64,
isPrivate: false

}
```
## Update Permissions
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.server.updatePermissions({
allowVoice: true,
allowVideo: true,
allowScreenShare: true
});
}
```
Only update settings or permissions as part of an explicit admin flow. Plugins should not silently rename servers or change access rules.

# Storage API
Plugins can store local client data and per-server data. Desktop builds use Electron persistence when available; browser fallback uses renderer storage.
## Required Capabilities
| Method | Capability |
| --- | --- |
| `clientData.read(key)` | `storage.local` |
| `clientData.write(key, value)` | `storage.local` |
| `clientData.remove(key)` | `storage.local` |
| `serverData.read(key)` | `storage.serverData.read` |
| `serverData.write(key, value)` | `storage.serverData.write` |
| `serverData.remove(key)` | `storage.serverData.write` |
| `storage.get(key)` | `storage.local` |
| `storage.set(key, value)` | `storage.local` |
| `storage.remove(key)` | `storage.local` |
## Client Data
Client data belongs to this local user and client.
```js
export async function activate(context) {
await context.api.clientData.write('soundboard:volume', {
masterVolume: 0.7,
updatedAt: 1777473600000
});
const value = await context.api.clientData.read('soundboard:volume');
context.api.logger.info('Loaded client data', value);
}
```
## Server Data
Server data is local per-user/per-server state. It is not arbitrary signal-server persistence.
```js
export async function activate(context) {
await context.api.serverData.write('soundboard:favorites', [
{ id: 'chime', label: 'Chime', url: 'https://cdn.example.com/chime.wav' },
{ id: 'ready', label: 'Ready Check', url: 'https://cdn.example.com/ready.wav' }
]);
const favorites = await context.api.serverData.read('soundboard:favorites');
context.api.logger.info('Loaded server favorites', favorites);
}
```
## Remove Data
```js
export async function activate(context) {
await context.api.clientData.remove('soundboard:volume');
await context.api.serverData.remove('soundboard:favorites');
}
```
## Legacy Synchronous Storage
The `storage.*` methods are legacy local storage helpers. Prefer `clientData.*` for new plugins when async reads are acceptable.
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.storage.set('quick-toggle', { enabled: true });
const saved = context.api.storage.get('quick-toggle');
context.api.logger.info('Legacy storage value', saved);
context.api.storage.remove('quick-toggle');
}
```
## Manifest Data Declarations
Declare important data keys in the manifest.
```json
{
"data": [
{
"key": "soundboard:volume",
"scope": "client",
"storage": "local"
},
{
"key": "soundboard:favorites",
"scope": "server",
"storage": "serverData"
}
]

# UI API
The UI API lets plugins add pages, settings pages, side panels, channel sections, actions, embed renderers, and controlled DOM mounts.
Prefer registered UI contributions over direct DOM mounting. Contribution APIs let Angular render the plugin UI when the matching app surface exists. Direct DOM mounting runs immediately and throws if the target selector is not present.
## Required Capabilities
| Method | Capability |
| --- | --- |
| `ui.registerAppPage(id, contribution)` | `ui.pages` |
| `ui.registerSettingsPage(id, contribution)` | `ui.settings` |
| `ui.registerSidePanel(id, contribution)` | `ui.sidePanel` |
| `ui.registerChannelSection(id, contribution)` | `ui.channelsSection` |
| `ui.registerComposerAction(id, contribution)` | `ui.pages` |
| `ui.registerProfileAction(id, contribution)` | `ui.pages` |
| `ui.registerToolbarAction(id, contribution)` | `ui.pages` |
| `ui.registerEmbedRenderer(id, contribution)` | `ui.embeds` |
| `ui.mountElement(id, request)` | `ui.dom` |
Every registration returns a disposable. Push it into `context.subscriptions`.
## App Page
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.subscriptions.push(context.api.ui.registerAppPage('dashboard', {
label: 'Raid Dashboard',
path: '/plugins/example.raid-helper/dashboard',
render: () => {
const root = document.createElement('section');
root.innerHTML = '<h1>Raid Dashboard</h1><p>Tonight: dungeon practice.</p>';
return root;
}
}));
}
```
The page is hosted by `/plugins/:pluginId/:pageId`.
## Settings Page
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.subscriptions.push(context.api.ui.registerSettingsPage('preferences', {
label: 'Raid Helper',
settingsKey: 'raid-helper',
order: 20,
render: () => {
const wrapper = document.createElement('section');
const label = document.createElement('label');
const checkbox = document.createElement('input');
checkbox.type = 'checkbox';
checkbox.checked = true;
label.append(checkbox, ' Enable ready-check reminders');
wrapper.append(label);
return wrapper;
}
}));
}
```
## Side Panel
Use `ui.registerSidePanel` for content that belongs in the server sidebar plugin area. Do not mount directly into `[data-testid="plugin-room-side-panel"]`; that host is route-specific and may not exist during plugin activation.
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.subscriptions.push(context.api.ui.registerSidePanel('soundboard', {
label: 'Soundboard',
order: 10,
render: () => {
const panel = document.createElement('div');
const button = document.createElement('button');
button.type = 'button';
button.textContent = 'Play chime';
button.onclick = () => context.api.media.playAudioClip({
url: 'https://cdn.example.com/chime.wav',
volume: 0.6
});
panel.append(button);
return panel;
}
}));
}
```
Capabilities required: `ui.sidePanel` and `media.playAudio`.
## Channel Section
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.subscriptions.push(context.api.ui.registerChannelSection('events', {
label: 'Event Rooms',
type: 'custom',
order: 50
}));
}
```
## Composer Action
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.subscriptions.push(context.api.ui.registerComposerAction('insert-standup', {
icon: 'ST',
label: 'Insert standup prompt',
run: (actionContext) => {
context.api.messages.send(
'Standup: yesterday I..., today I..., blocked by...',
actionContext.textChannel?.id
);
}
}));
}
```
Capabilities required: `ui.pages` and `messages.send`.
## Profile Action
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.subscriptions.push(context.api.ui.registerProfileAction('wave', {
label: 'Wave',
run: (actionContext) => {
context.api.messages.send(`Waving at ${actionContext.user?.displayName ?? 'someone'}!`);
}
}));
}
```
## Toolbar Action
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.subscriptions.push(context.api.ui.registerToolbarAction('open-dashboard', {
label: 'Raid Helper',
run: () => {
context.api.logger.info('Open the Raid Helper plugin page from /plugins/example.raid-helper/dashboard');
}
}));
}
```
## Embed Renderer
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.subscriptions.push(context.api.ui.registerEmbedRenderer('raid-card', {
embedType: 'raid.card',
render: (payload) => {
const card = document.createElement('article');
const title = document.createElement('h3');
const body = document.createElement('p');
title.textContent = payload?.title ?? 'Raid';
body.textContent = payload?.description ?? 'No description provided.';
card.append(title, body);
return card;
}
}));
}
```
Example message content for this embed:
```text
toju:embed:raid.card:{"title":"Friday Raid","description":"Meet in Lobby at 20:00."}
```
## DOM Mount
Use DOM mounting only when normal UI contribution points are not enough. `ui.mountElement` resolves its target immediately. If the target does not exist, plugin activation fails with `Plugin mount target not found: <selector>`.
Safe uses:
- Mounting a global overlay, badge, or modal into `body` during activation.
- Mounting into a route-specific element only after checking that element exists.
Avoid:
- Mounting sidebar content into `[data-testid="plugin-room-side-panel"]`. Use `ui.registerSidePanel`.
- Mounting chat content into `app-chat-messages` during activation without checking for the element.
```js
export function activate(context) {
const badge = document.createElement('div');
badge.textContent = 'Raid helper active';
badge.style.position = 'fixed';
badge.style.right = '16px';
badge.style.bottom = '16px';
badge.style.padding = '8px 10px';
badge.style.background = '#111827';
badge.style.color = 'white';
badge.style.borderRadius = '6px';
context.subscriptions.push(context.api.ui.mountElement('active-badge', {
target: 'body',
position: 'beforeend',
element: badge
}));
}
```
Route-specific mount example with a guard:
```js
export function activate(context) {
const target = document.querySelector('app-chat-messages');
if (!target) {
context.api.logger.warn('Chat messages host is not rendered yet; skipping chat mount');
return;
}
const banner = document.createElement('div');
banner.textContent = 'Raid helper active in this chat.';
context.subscriptions.push(context.api.ui.mountElement('chat-banner', {
target,
position: 'afterbegin',
element: banner
}));
}
```
The runtime tags plugin-owned DOM and removes it on unload, but plugins should still keep mounts minimal and accessible.

```js
export function activate(context) {
const roles = context.api.roles.list();
context.api.logger.info('Available roles', roles.map((role) => ({
id: role.id,
name: role.name,
permissions: role.permissions
})));
}
```
## Set a User Role
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.users.setRole('user-muse-01', 'moderator');
}
```
## Replace Role Assignments
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.roles.setAssignments([
{ userId: 'user-alice-01', roleId: 'admin' },
{ userId: 'user-muse-01', roleId: 'moderator' }
]);
}
```
## Kick or Ban a User
```js
export function activate(context) {
context.api.users.kick('user-spam-01');
context.api.users.ban('user-spam-02', 'Repeated spam in support channels');
}
```
Moderation calls should normally be behind an explicit user action in plugin UI. Do not run destructive moderation automatically on activation.

`scope: "server"` marks a plugin as server-scoped. Server-scoped store entries can be installed to a chat server as requirements. Required server plugins are auto-installed for members when that server opens; optional requirements stay listed but do not auto-install.
When a user installs a server-scoped plugin into the server they are currently viewing, MetoYou enables that plugin id locally and activates the plugin immediately after the local manifest is registered. Installing a server-scoped plugin for another server records the activation preference so it activates when that server is opened.
## Entrypoint and Bundle
Use `entrypoint` for a browser-resolvable module relative to the manifest. Use `bundle.url` when publishing a cached browser bundle through a plugin source manifest. Desktop installs cache bundle files into app data and load the cached manifest afterward.

# First Steps
MetoYou is a chat app for servers, text conversations, direct messages, and live voice. You do not need to understand the technical parts to use it.
## Main Words
| Word | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| Server | A shared space for a community, team, or group. |
| Text channel | A named chat room inside a server. Messages stay in that channel. |
| Voice channel | A named live room inside a server. Join it when you want to talk, share camera, or share screen. |
| Direct message | A private conversation outside a server channel. |
| Plugin | An add-on that can add buttons, panels, tools, integrations, or server-specific features. |
## Sign In
1. Open MetoYou.
2. Sign in with your username and password.
3. If you use more than one signaling server, choose the server endpoint that owns your account.
A signaling server handles accounts, server discovery, membership, and connection setup. In normal use you can think of it as the place MetoYou checks when you log in and join servers.
## Find a Server
1. Open the server search page.
2. Search by server name or browse the available list.
3. Select a server.
4. Join directly if it is public, enter the password if it is protected, or use an invite link if someone sent you one.
After joining, the server appears in the vertical server rail on the left. Click a server icon there to switch servers.
## Read and Send Messages
1. Click a server in the left rail.
2. Pick a text channel under **Text Channels**.
3. Type in the composer at the bottom of the chat.
4. Press Enter or use the send button.
Text channels keep different topics separate. For example, a server might have `general`, `announcements`, and `support` as separate text channels.
## Start Talking
1. Open a server.
2. Pick a voice channel under **Voice Channels**.
3. Click the voice channel to join.
4. Use the voice controls to mute, deafen, start camera, share screen, or leave.
Voice is live. Text messages are written chat. They can happen at the same time, but they are different channel types.
## Use Direct Messages
Direct messages are one-to-one conversations. They are separate from server text channels, so they do not depend on which server you are viewing.
## Open Settings
Settings contain account, voice, plugin, server, desktop, update, local API, theme, and data controls. Desktop users can also manage local data import/export and local documentation/API hosting.
## Install Plugins
Plugins are installed from the Plugin Store or Plugin Manager. Some plugins are global client plugins. Other plugins are server-scoped and only apply to a specific server.
See [Plugins for Users](./plugins.md) for the full non-technical plugin guide.

# Plugins for Users
Plugins add features to MetoYou. They can add pages, buttons, panels, settings, sounds, message tools, custom embeds, or server-specific behavior.
## Types of Plugins
| Type | What it means |
| --- | --- |
| Client plugin | Installed for your app. It follows you across servers when active. |
| Server plugin | Installed for a specific server. It may be required, recommended, optional, blocked, or incompatible. |
| Library plugin | Shared plugin code used by other plugins. It is not normally something users interact with directly. |
## Install from the Plugin Store
1. Open the Plugin Store from the title bar or Settings.
2. Browse or search available plugins.
3. Open the plugin details.
4. Read the description, version, source, and capability list.
5. Choose install.
6. Review and grant only the capabilities you trust.
7. Activate the plugin.
Server-scoped plugins installed to the server you are currently viewing are enabled and activated automatically after install, so their panels, actions, or embeds can appear immediately.
## Install a Local Plugin
Desktop builds can discover local plugin folders from the app data plugins directory.
1. Put the plugin folder in the desktop plugins directory.
2. Open Settings.
3. Open the Plugin Manager.
4. Refresh or register local plugins.
5. Grant capabilities and activate the plugin.
## Server Plugin Prompts
When a server uses plugins, MetoYou may show a prompt.
| Status | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| Required | You must install the plugin to join or continue using that server. |
| Recommended | The server suggests the plugin, but you can choose. |
| Optional | The plugin is available for the server, but not required. |
| Blocked | The server marks the plugin as not allowed. |
| Incompatible | The plugin version does not work with your app version or the server requirement. |
Required plugins are still installed locally on your device. The signaling server stores requirement metadata only; it does not run plugin code.
## Capability Grants
Plugins must ask for capabilities before using sensitive features.
Examples:
| Capability area | Why a plugin might ask |
| --- | --- |
| Messages | Send messages, read current messages, moderate messages, or render embeds. |
| Users and roles | Read member lists, create plugin users, or manage users. |
| Voice and media | Play audio, add an audio stream, add a video stream, or adjust volume. |
| UI | Add pages, settings pages, side panels, toolbar buttons, or DOM elements. |
| Storage | Save plugin preferences locally or per server. |
Only grant capabilities to plugins you trust.
## Manage Plugins
The Plugin Manager lets you:
- activate, deactivate, reload, or unload plugins;
- grant or revoke capabilities;
- inspect plugin logs;
- see plugin UI contribution counts;
- review server plugin requirements;
- uninstall plugins.
## Plugin Safety Notes
Plugins are browser-safe JavaScript modules loaded by the client. They do not run on the signaling server. A plugin can only call privileged MetoYou APIs when its manifest declares the capability and you grant it.

# Servers and Channels
A server is the main shared space in MetoYou. Servers contain members, channels, permissions, optional plugins, and server settings.
## Server Rail
The server rail is the vertical list of servers on the left side of the app.
- Click a server icon to open it.
- Use the add/search control to find or join more servers.
- A badge can show unread activity.
- Server context actions can include invite, leave, or server settings depending on your permissions.
## Text Channels
Text channels are written conversations. Each text channel has its own message list.
Common examples:
| Channel | Use |
| --- | --- |
| `general` | Everyday chat. |
| `announcements` | Updates from owners or admins. |
| `support` | Help requests. |
| `clips` | Shared media or links. |
Messages, replies, reactions, attachments, GIFs, typing indicators, and plugin-created messages are scoped to the active text channel.
## Voice Channels
Voice channels are live spaces. Joining a voice channel connects your microphone and lets you use camera or screen sharing when enabled.
Voice channel examples:
| Channel | Use |
| --- | --- |
| `Lobby` | Casual drop-in voice. |
| `Gaming` | In-game voice. |
| `Meeting` | Focused calls. |
| `Support Room` | Live help. |
## Text Channels vs Voice Channels
| Text channel | Voice channel |
| --- | --- |
| Written messages. | Live audio and media. |
| You can read later. | You join and leave in real time. |
| Uses the message composer. | Uses voice controls. |
| Good for searchable discussions. | Good for conversations, calls, screen shares, and quick coordination. |
## Server Members
The member list shows people known to the server. Online members appear separately from offline members. Depending on permissions, owners, admins, or moderators can move users between voice channels, kick users, ban users, or change roles.
## Invites
Invite links help other users join a server. If a server is private or password-protected, the invite or password controls who can enter.
## Server Plugins
A server can recommend or require plugins. Required server plugins may block joining until you choose whether to install them. Optional and recommended plugins can be skipped.

# Settings and Data
Settings control the app, voice, plugins, servers, themes, updates, local APIs, and desktop behavior.
## Common Settings
| Area | What you can manage |
| --- | --- |
| Account | Current profile, display details, and avatar metadata. |
| Voice | Devices, volumes, bitrate, latency, noise reduction, screen share preferences. |
| Plugins | Installed plugins, capability grants, plugin logs, and plugin store sources. |
| Server | Server details, channels, roles, moderation, plugin requirements, and member controls. |
| Theme | App colors and visual preferences. |
| Desktop | Tray behavior, auto-start, hardware acceleration, updates, and local data tools. |
| Local API | Local HTTP server, API docs, Docusaurus docs, and allowed signaling servers. |
## Local Data
Desktop MetoYou stores local app data on your device. That can include rooms, messages, users, plugin data, settings, and metadata. The desktop settings include data import/export tools.
## Local API and Documentation Hosting
The desktop app can start a local HTTP server. It is off by default. When enabled, it can serve:
- Local REST API endpoints under `/api/...`;
- Scalar REST API docs at `/docs`;
- this Docusaurus site at `/docusaurus`.
Authentication for protected local API routes uses a local bearer token. Login is checked against an allowed signaling server that you configure in settings.

# Text and Direct Messages
Text channels and direct messages both use written chat, but they are meant for different situations.
## Text Channels
Text channels belong to a server. Everyone with access to that server and channel can participate.
You can use text channels to:
- send normal messages;
- edit or delete your own messages when allowed;
- react to messages;
- send attachments;
- browse and send GIFs when available;
- see typing indicators;
- read synced message history stored on your device.
## Direct Messages
Direct messages are private conversations outside a server channel. Use them when a message is meant for one person instead of the server.
## Attachments and Media
Attachments can appear as files, images, audio, or video depending on the file type and what the app can preview. If an image or link cannot load directly, the app can use fallback paths where available.
## Message Sync
MetoYou stores messages locally and syncs recent messages with peers when connections are available. If you were offline, messages may appear after peers reconnect and exchange their recent message lists.
## Plugin Messages
Some plugins can send messages, create bot-style plugin users, render custom embeds, or add composer buttons. MetoYou asks for plugin capability grants before plugins can use privileged message features.

# Voice Channels and Calls
Voice channels are live rooms inside a server. Join one when you want to talk, share camera, or share your screen.
## Join a Voice Channel
1. Open the server from the left server rail.
2. Find **Voice Channels** in the server side panel.
3. Click the voice channel you want to join.
4. Allow microphone access if your system asks.
5. Use the voice controls to manage your call.
When you join, other users in the same voice channel can hear you unless you are muted. Users in other voice channels are not part of your live voice room.
## Voice Controls
The voice controls can include:
| Control | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| Mute microphone | Stops sending your microphone audio. |
| Deafen | Stops playback and usually mutes your microphone too. |
| Camera | Starts or stops webcam video. |
| Screen share | Shares a screen or window. |
| Settings | Opens voice device and quality settings. |
| Leave | Disconnects from the voice channel. |
## Screen Sharing
1. Join a voice channel.
2. Click screen share.
3. Choose a screen or window.
4. Choose whether to include system audio when available.
5. Stop sharing from the voice controls when done.
The screen share picker can show screens and windows. Desktop audio support depends on operating system support and the selected source.
## Voice Workspace
When someone shares camera or screen, the voice workspace can expand into a larger media area. It can show focused streams, a grid of streams, or a minimized mini-window.
## Floating Voice Controls
If you navigate away from the server while still connected to voice, MetoYou can show floating voice controls. Use them to return to the voice server or leave the call.
## Voice Settings
Voice settings can include:
- input device;
- output device;
- input volume;
- output volume;
- audio bitrate;
- latency profile;
- noise reduction;
- screen share quality;
- system audio preference.
## Troubleshooting
| Problem | Try this |
| --- | --- |
| Nobody hears you | Check mute, input device, system microphone permission, and input volume. |
| You hear nobody | Check deafen, output device, output volume, and whether others are in the same voice channel. |
| Screen share is missing | Check desktop permissions and try a different screen or window. |
| Voice drops after switching servers | Return to the server with the active voice session or leave and rejoin the voice channel. |
Voice and screen sharing use peer-to-peer WebRTC media. The signaling server helps users connect, but the media itself travels through peer connections.
