 - Slot `flybot.new-chat.action` (`0003-flybot-api-client`, types in `flybot.d.ts`) is a row on the sidebar **+** new-chat menu, after New group chat. Plugins register `{ id, order, label, hint?, visible?, run }`; the picker looks `label` / `hint` up with `t()` like the neighbouring rows. A string returned from `run` is shown as a toast (`actions.notify`). Social registers Face-to-face room and Add friend; see [plugin-runtime](plugin-runtime.md) and [social](social.md).
 - Sidebar **+** (`mode === 'new'`) opens a short action menu (`data-menu`, no To:/composer) until **New chat** or **New group chat**. That menu does not list individual Bots (Chief and the rest stay behind **New chat**). The Agent row in that FlyBot menu is **Add coding agent**; every row has its own mark (`ChatIcon`, `BotIcon`, `PeopleIcon`, a plugin row's `icon`, drawn through `SlotIcon` behind its own error boundary with the people mark as fallback; a function or memo/forwardRef component, `TerminalIcon`), one verb style (New … / Add …) and one short hint with no closing period (#385: *Message one of your Bots*, *Set up a Bot with its own role*, *Chat with several of your Bots*, *Meet people nearby with a 6-digit number*, *Paste an invite link or code*, *A coding session without a Bot*). A Bot's right-click menu has **Edit Bot** and no separate **Rename Bot** (the name is edited there); **Add DSH Agent** stays the DSH product string on Agent rows elsewhere (#126, #181).
 - Group bubbles, notices, and failed-reply lines never show a raw `<untrusted-message>` wrap or a developer error (`llm-deepseek: no API key`). `remoteMessageText` unwraps stored fences; `failureLabel` maps missing-key / unknown model failures to a short friendly line. Details stay in Settings → Feedback.
+- A closed face room's status line already says who left (#1103). `GroupReplies` (`leaveNoticeCoveredByClose` in `cells.js`) does not also draw a short leave notice for that person (`SelfB1025 left the room`, or `Coder (SelfB1025) left`). A leave while the room is still open, a leave the status line does not name, and every other notice stay. The social plugin uses the same rule when it decides whether to post the line. Test: `core/test/tool-cells.test.js`.
 - `GroupReplies` draws a `user` reply with `other: true` (another member's face-room line, #180) as `PersonMessage` (`cells.js`): the person's name, the person mark (`PersonMark` in `mark.js`) and a received `--bt-bubble` bubble, not a centred `bt-event` notice and not the sent `--bt-user` style; own lines keep the right-hand bubble (#229). `other` comes only from the host's person-line post (`hooks.js` `postHuman`), never from text. Another home member's line in a shared group (`UserMessageCell`, author stamped by the host) gets the same person mark and the received surface (`.bt-umsg-other .bt-ubody`). `PersonMark({ name })` draws the person's initial on a color picked from the name (`personColor`, the core default-color hash of `person:<name>`), so one person looks the same on every home and two people are told apart; without a name it is the plain silhouette (#182).
 - A person's line keeps its line breaks (#455): `.bt-person-msg .bt-bubble :is(p,li)` is `white-space: pre-line`, as the sender's own `pre-wrap` bubble, since Markdown would join single newlines. A trigger whose source has `shown: true` (a line a running round already drew, host #455) draws nothing. Covered by `core/test/face-people.test.js`.
 - A face-to-face room is person-first (#229, #457, owner decision 2026-10-20). `face-seats.js` (re-exported by `group-settings.js`) builds it from participant fields and the roster, never message text: `faceSeats` lists the live Bot seats (`{ left: true }` adds the ones that left, marked `left`), `faceSeatLabel` names each Bot `<Bot> (<person>)`, mine included (`Chief (SelfB)`, `Chief (SelfA)`; a Bot is never `(you)`), `faceBotLabel` gives a local Bot that name in a face room, and `facePeople` groups the seats by person (me once, first; a friend by home) with `facePersonLabel` putting `(you)` on me only. The overview and group settings **Members · N** count people and draw one row per person (`FacePersonRow`: person mark, name, then that person's Bots; my Bots open their chat).
