## Context Before this change, every huddle initialized with transcription off. Joining or adding an agent did not enable it, so the agent could not receive spoken conversation until a person clicked the transcript control. Starting a huddle from an agent DM could also omit that agent, and adding an agent who already belonged to the parent channel could attempt an unnecessary role change and show a warning. Agent detection uses authoritative huddle membership. A participant counts as an agent when the ephemeral membership identifies it with the `bot` role, or when the existing agent identity model identifies the participant in an agent DM. ## Summary Buzz now enables transcription once when the first authoritative agent is present. After that initial automatic action, explicit user control is authoritative: manual ON or OFF survives membership refreshes, reconnects, and UI remounts. Removing the last agent does not change the current transcription state. Agent-DM huddles enroll the agent automatically. Adding an agent who already belongs to the parent channel preserves the existing parent role and completes without a role-mutation warning. | Scenario | Before | With this change | | --- | --- | --- | | First authoritative agent joins or is hydrated | Transcription stays off | Transcription turns on once | | User explicitly turns transcription on or off | Manual control exists without an agent policy | The explicit choice suppresses later automatic changes | | Last agent leaves | No defined agent-presence behavior | The current transcription state remains unchanged | | Huddle starts from an agent DM | The agent can be omitted | The known agent is enrolled automatically | | Added agent already belongs to the parent channel | Buzz can attempt a role rewrite and warn | Existing parent membership and role are preserved | | Transcription is active | The control is not visually distinct | The control is highlighted and exposes `aria-pressed=true` | ## Changes - Derive agent presence from authoritative bot-role huddle membership and known agent-DM identity. - Apply the one-time auto-enable rule during create, join, membership hydration, reconnect, pipeline startup, and local agent addition. - Preserve explicit user state and use huddle-generation guards so stale asynchronous work cannot alter a replacement huddle. - Keep backend and React transcription state synchronized, with a visible and accessible active control. - Enroll known agent-DM participants and make parent-channel membership updates idempotent. - Cover hydration ordering, reconnects, remounts, explicit OFF, last-agent removal, DM enrollment, existing membership, and active styling. ## Related issue None found. ## Testing Manual validation in `pending-seed` confirmed the product contract: 1. Started a huddle from the owned, running Fizz agent DM. 2. Confirmed the authoritative roster contained the human and Fizz as an agent. 3. Confirmed transcription enabled without clicking the control: `Stop transcript`, `aria-pressed=true`, with the highlighted active background. 4. Turned transcription off and confirmed `Start transcript`, `aria-pressed=false` remained stable. 5. Removed Fizz while transcription was off and confirmed the state stayed off. 6. Left the huddle cleanly. ## Screenshots The same control has distinct active and inactive states.   ## Reviewer-reproducible examples From a fresh checkout: ```bash pnpm --dir desktop build:e2e pnpm --dir desktop exec playwright test tests/e2e/huddle-transcription.spec.ts --project=smoke pnpm --dir desktop exec playwright test tests/e2e/mentions.spec.ts --project=smoke --grep "system agent profile exposes owned agent actions|system agent avatar exposes owned agent actions|owned bot profile exposes message and huddle actions|owned agent mention profile exposes message and huddle actions" ``` The huddle scenario exercises initial authoritative hydration, exactly one automatic enable, explicit OFF persistence, unchanged state after last-agent removal, newer events winning over delayed hydration, agent-DM enrollment, and idempotent parent membership. It also asserts `aria-pressed` and distinct computed active styling. --------- Signed-off-by: John Tennant <jtennant@squareup.com> Signed-off-by: npub1jh9wn95s0472h86ahapupaf7m6kx4v9sx2n0atj2hltcfer8k06s5n3pyf <95cae996907d7cab9f5dbf43c0f53edeac6ab0b032a6feae4abfd784e467b3f5@buzz.block.builderlab.xyz> Co-authored-by: npub1jh9wn95s0472h86ahapupaf7m6kx4v9sx2n0atj2hltcfer8k06s5n3pyf <95cae996907d7cab9f5dbf43c0f53edeac6ab0b032a6feae4abfd784e467b3f5@buzz.block.builderlab.xyz>
