Discussion metadata model contracts packages/model-typings/src/models/IMessagesModel.ts, packages/model-typings/src/models/IRoomsModel.ts, packages/models/src/models/Messages.ts, packages/models/src/models/Rooms.ts |
Model interfaces and implementations add discussion-room queries and atomic parent-message metadata increments. |

Hidden system-message types use shared expansion logic. Metadata updates support recalculation and explicit count deltas. |
Message activity and setting-change propagation apps/meteor/server/hooks/messages/propagateDiscussionMetadata.ts, apps/meteor/server/services/messages/service.ts |
Message save and delete paths pass count deltas. Hidden-system-message setting changes refresh affected discussions and retain failed scopes for later retries. |
History cleanup metadata refresh apps/meteor/server/lib/rooms/cleanRoomHistory.ts, .changeset/discussion-message-count-increment.md |
History cleanup refreshes parent discussion metadata after resetting the last message. The changeset declares patch releases. |

In `@apps/meteor/server/hooks/messages/propagateDiscussionMetadata.ts`:
- Line 150: Update the refresh flow around
updateAndNotifyParentRoomWithParentMessage and hiddenSystemMessageTypes so
failures after partial completion retain the affected type scopes or room IDs
separately from the active setting. Include those retained failed scopes in the
next transition’s symmetric-difference calculation and clear them only after a
successful refresh, ensuring pending discussions are not skipped.
In `@apps/meteor/server/lib/rooms/cleanRoomHistory.ts`:
- Line 16: Move the Rooms.findOneDiscussionById lookup and its null check inside
the existing try block in cleanRoomHistory, so lookup failures are handled by
the same error boundary and logging as
updateAndNotifyParentRoomWithParentMessage while preserving the current cleanup
flow.
In `@packages/models/src/models/Messages.ts`:
- Line 1684: Coordinate refreshDiscussionMetadata snapshots with
incDiscussionMetadata message deltas using serialization or a versioned
compare-and-apply protocol. Ensure concurrent saves/deletes cannot be
double-counted or overwritten by an older snapshot, and advance/check the lm
version for deletions as well as refreshes.

Timestamp: 2026-02-26T19:25:44.063Z
Learning: In this repository (RocketChat/Rocket.Chat), Biome lint rules are not used even if a biome.json exists. When reviewing TypeScript files (e.g., packages/ui-voip/src/providers/useMediaSession.ts), ensure lint suggestions do not reference Biome-specific rules. Rely on general ESLint/TypeScript lint rules and project conventions instead.

Learning: In the Rocket.Chat repository, do not reference Biome lint rules in code review feedback. Biome is not used even if biome.json exists; only reference Biome rules if there is explicit, project-wide usage documented. For TypeScript files, review lint implications without Biome guidance unless the project enables Biome rules.

P1: When hidden-type refreshes overlap, the older sweep can commit first and this guard blocks the newer successful sweep from advancing the baseline. A later change can then have an empty symmetric difference and skip the recount, leaving `dcount` calculated for the previous visibility setting. Track a refresh generation or serialize sweeps so the latest successful sweep commits its `currentTypes`.

A hidden system message on a discussion with no regular message yet skipped the parent message update entirely, so dcount was never written. The pre-existing global Hide_System_Messages API test expects dcount: 0.
Overlapping sweeps could leave the baseline behind the actual setting, so a later revert produced an empty diff and skipped the recount.

Learning: In `apps/meteor/server/hooks/messages/propagateDiscussionMetadata.ts`, the `Hide_System_Messages` setting callback retains `hiddenSystemMessageTypes` when `refreshDiscussionsContainingTypes` fails. A later transition back to that retained baseline produces an empty symmetric difference, so retry-on-next-change alone cannot correct metadata already refreshed for the failed intermediate setting.

166-170: Retain failed refresh types for rollback transitions.If an A→B sweep partially succeeds, this keeps baseline A. If the setting then changes from B back to A, the symmetric difference is empty and line 170 accepts A without a compensating refresh. Some discussions can retain metadata calculated for B. Keep failed
changedTypesuntil a successful sweep includes them. Based on learnings: a rollback to the retained baseline cannot retry a partially failed intermediate sweep.Source: Learnings

Since #41673, every message saved or deleted in a discussion triggered
Messages.countVisibleByRoomIdContainingTypes()— a fullcountDocumentsover the discussion's messages to subtract hidden system messages — even though only one message changed.This PR makes the per-message path incremental and moves the full recount to the only moments the set of hidden types can actually change:
propagateDiscussionMetadata.ts,MessageService.saveSystemMessage): the parent message'sdcountnow moves by the same amount staged for the room'smsgs(0 for edits, ±1 for new/deleted messages), and only when the message type is not hidden for that room. NewMessages.incDiscussionMetadata()applies the delta through an aggregation-pipeline update that clampsdcountat 0 and keepsdlmmonotonic via$max— no query guard, so concurrent out-of-order callbacks can never drop a delta.cleanRoomHistory— prune API and retention-policy cron): those paths decrementroom.msgswithout firing per-message delete callbacks, so pruning a discussion now triggers one full recount of it.systemMessagessetting save (saveRoomSettings.ts): unchanged — still a full recount of that one discussion.Hide_System_Messagessetting change: a newsettings.changewatcher diffs the previous and new expanded type sets (Set.prototype.symmetricDifference; initial value recorded viasettings.onReady) and recounts only the discussions that contain messages of the types whose visibility actually changed, resolved DB-side by the newMessages.findDiscussionRoomIdsContainingTypes()($match+$group+$lookupon rooms'prid) and fetched via the newRooms.findDiscussionsByIds().

Follow-up to #41673
Steps to test or reproduce
Covered by the existing
discussion messages countAPI tests from #41673 (apps/meteor/tests/end-to-end/api/rooms.ts): messages sent/deleted in discussions update the counter shown on the parent channel, hidden system messages are not counted, and toggling the per-room or global hidden system messages settings refreshes the counts.Further comments
The incremental counter can only drift if a concurrent update wins the
dlmguard (same window that already existed for the full refresh); any drift is corrected by the recount on the next hidden-types settings change.Benchmark
