* MM-68547: Tighten authorization on group syncable link and patch endpoints
Adds an additional permission check on the group syncable link and patch
endpoints. Callers must hold the role-management permission for the
target team or channel (or the sysconsole groups-management permission).
Made-with: Cursor
* Linting
* MM-68547: Extend group syncable scheme_admin authorization checks
Gate any explicit scheme_admin value (in either direction) on link and
patch. Populate SchemeAdmin in the singular getGroupSyncable so that
patches that do not touch scheme_admin no longer overwrite the persisted
value. Restrict PermittedSyncableAdmins to active syncables. Start the
link upsert from the existing active row to preserve fields the caller
did not, or could not, set.
Made-with: Cursor
* MM-68547: Add store-layer regression coverage for SchemeAdmin handling
Extend testGetGroupSyncable to round-trip SchemeAdmin: true through
UpdateGroupSyncable and re-fetch, locking in that getGroupSyncable
populates the field from the persisted row.
Strengthen groupTestPermittedSyncableAdmins{Team,Channel} to assert
that DeleteGroupSyncable preserves SchemeAdmin in the persisted row
and that PermittedSyncableAdmins still excludes the row, making the
coupling between the two store changes explicit.

* MM-68547: Fix group details role-change dedup on remove
The roleChangeKey helper was reading team_id/channel_id from the items
in itemsToRemove, but onRemoveTeamOrChannel pushes those items with a
generic id field. The deletion of the staged role change in
handleRemovedTeamsAndChannels therefore never matched the key produced
by onChangeRoles, and a stale patchGroupSyncable was dispatched after
the unlink.
Accept either id or team_id/channel_id when computing the key. Also
extend the e2e assertion to verify the channel removal took effect
(delete_at != 0) alongside the existing scheme_admin check.
Made-with: Cursor
* MM-68547: Mirror delete_at assertion on the removed-team e2e test
The team variant of "does not update the role of a removed X" was left
asserting only on scheme_admin. Add the matching delete_at != 0 check
already present in the channel variant so both tests verify the same
user-visible contract.
Made-with: Cursor
* Skip SyncSyncableRoles if no scheme_admin

Mattermost Web App
This folder contains the client code for the Mattermost web app. It's broken up into multiple packages each of which either contains an area of the app (such as playbooks) or shared logic used across other packages (such as the packages located in the platform directory). For anyone who's used to working in the mattermost/mattermost-webapp repo, most of that is now located in channels.
npm Workspaces
To interact with a workspace using npm, such as to add a dependency or run a script, use the --workspace (or --workspaces) flag. This can be done when using built-in npm commands such as npm add or when running scripts. Those commands should be run from this directory.
# Add a dependency to a single package
npm add react --workspace=playbooks
# Build multiple packages
npm run build --workspace=platform/client --workspace=platform/components
# Test all workspaces
npm test --workspaces
# Clean all workspaces that have a clean script defined
npm run clean --workspaces --if-present
To install dependencies for a workspace, simply run npm install from this folder as you would do normally. Most packages' dependencies will be included in the root node_modules, and all packages' dependencies will appear in the package-lock.json. A node_modules will only be created inside a package if one of its dependencies conflicts with that of another package.

Dependency Changes
Any PR that modifies package.json or package-lock.json needs extra scrutiny:
- No duplicate libraries. Before adding a new dependency, check whether an existing one already covers the same use case. Multiple libraries for the same purpose (e.g., two different date pickers, or Bootstrap 3 and Bootstrap 4 simultaneously) create long-term upgrade pain.
- License check. New dependencies must not use GPL or similarly restrictive licenses. Dependencies with no license at all should also be flagged.
- Justify the addition. A new dependency should solve a real problem that existing code or dependencies don't already address. Push back on adding packages for trivial functionality.
- Version conflicts. Check whether the new dependency introduces conflicting peer dependency versions. Cascading version conflicts are expensive to untangle later and have historically blocked upgrades for months.
