📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

selectChatThread now orders chat threads by online status and recent activity. It retrieves each conversation’s latest message timestamp and uses closure, message, creation, and ID values as ordering criteria.

Changes

Chat thread ordering

Layer / File(s) Summary
Activity-based thread ordering
internal/repo/sqlx/chat_members.go
The query adds a lateral lookup for each conversation’s latest message date. It orders threads by online status, the latest closure or activity time, and descending conversation ID.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to fbb94

The change can return thread members in thread-ID order instead of the intended online or recent-activity order, producing incorrect chat ordering for users. Merge should wait until the final query preserves the required thread ranking.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Preserve activity ordering in the final query.

Lines 978-981 order rows only inside the thread CTE. The channel CTE consumes those rows through UNION ALL, and selectChatQuery later orders the final result by c.thread_id, c.leg. SQL does not preserve CTE row order.

GetMembers therefore receives thread groups ordered by thread ID, not by online status or recent activity. Carry a deterministic thread-rank column through channel, then use it as the primary outer ORDER BY. Keep leg as the member order within each thread.
