What

Saved networks this page has not connected now stay in the sidebar, greyed, under the live ones. One tap connects them.

Why

A network added through the connect form with the defaults has autoconnect off: the form's checkbox starts unticked, and autoconnectSavedNetworks skips the entry. After a restart, such a network existed only in Settings → Networks, so from the sidebar it looked deleted. The same happened to a network whose SASL password was not remembered, and to one closed with /quit.

How

• NetworkList.vue lists every saved entry with no live network as a DormantNetwork.vue row. The row uses the lobby's layout at 0.55 opacity (0.8 under Increase Contrast) and shows "Not connected" or "Needs password", the edit pencil and the nick.
• A tap calls createNetwork with the entry as it is stored at that moment, the same call Settings → Networks' Connect makes, and the live row replaces the greyed one. When the password was not kept, the tap opens the connect form filled from the entry (/connect?savedLink=<uuid>) so the user can type it.
• When nothing is live but networks are saved, the greyed rows appear where the "not connected" text used to be.
• saved-networks.ts adds onSavedNetworksChange. hooks/use-saved-networks.ts follows it, plus the storage event, and re-renders only when something a row shows has changed. The history cursor's write, which happens on every message, does not notify.
• Networks that boot is about to autoconnect are not drawn greyed in the moment before they dial. If boot stops to wait on a link the user has to approve, they are drawn (manager.ts endAutoconnectWait).
• Greyed rows sit outside the drag-and-drop list and the jump-to results.

Things to note

• Greyed rows are ordered by most recent use, not by the stored network order.
• Tabs are independent clients, so a network that another tab has connected shows as not connected in this one. Settings → Networks already behaves this way.

Testing

• pnpm lint, pnpm typecheck, production build, pnpm test:mocha: 5132 passing, including new saved-networks listener tests.
• New browser scenario tools/scenarios/dormant-networks.mjs, run on desktop and with --mobile --width=390 --height=844, all 14 checks passing. lib/tiny-ircd.mjs is a small WebSocket server that registers connections, so the scenario needs no Docker. It checks:
  • the greyed rows and their order;
  • a tap connects and the greyed row is replaced;
  • /quit turns the network back into a greyed row;
  • the password case opens the connect form and dials nothing;
  • with nothing live, the greyed rows replace the empty text;
  • no console errors.
• smoke.mjs and network-settings.mjs still pass.
