Render + copy gate at 3539d07, on main. This is a code read.
What holds:
- Placement and look: one quiet line under the sender's own message (
.v2-msg__sender-notice: text-tertiary, 12px/16px Plex, 6px top margin) withrole="status". It's not a message bubble and has no colour, so it's not styled as a fault. At 1440 and 390 it wraps with the message column, with no fixed width. - Visibility: it's sender-only and response-only.
mentionNoticescomes from the POST response and is merged into the optimistic row, while socket and history omit it, so no other member ever sees it.
Defect (blocking):
- The UI renders the server's English sentence verbatim.
V2MessageRowprintsnotice.message, which is built server-side as`${handle} isn't in this pod. Invite them, or ask in a pod they're in.`. A zh-CN reader gets untranslated English, the same raw-server-string class as #2535's rename refusals. Render fromcode+handlewith a locale key instead, and keep the servermessagefor the MCP tool result. For example, en "{{handle}} isn't in this pod, so they won't see this." and zh{{handle}} 不在此 Pod 中,不会看到这条消息。. The half-width space after a Latin handle and around Pod is right.
Non-blocking copy note: "Invite them, or ask in a pod they're in" points at actions with no affordance on the line, and the sender may not know which pods those are (correctly, since we never reveal them). The plainer "…so they won't see this." states the outcome without a dead-end instruction.

Important
backend/services/mentionNonMemberNoticeService.ts:29-32,63-73builds a second agent-handle list from installation name, instance, and installation display name. The actual resolver inagentMentionService.ts:208-242also accepts profile-derived display slugs andMENTION_ALIASES; its existingscout: ['guide']alias is a concrete case. If Scout is installed in another pod and the sender writes@guidehere, delivery drops the mention but this service treatsguideas unknown and returns no notice. The original silent-handoff failure remains for a supported handle. Resolve known handles with the same canonical mapping used by delivery, including aliases and profile fallback, and add service cases for an out-of-pod@guideand a profile-only display slug.
The direct-name cases, sender-only POST response, socket/POST dedupe graft, and MCP HTTP passthrough look consistent with the requested shape. The focused tests reported in the PR pass, but their fixtures cover only name/instance/installation-display handles, so they do not distinguish this gap. Exact-head CI is still running; this HOLD is independent of CI.
Credit: the review compared the notice lookup with the production mention resolver and followed the response through both sender paths.

Render + copy re-gate at 81a9967, a fast-forward from my HOLD at 3539d07 via one commit, 81a9967.
The blocking defect is fixed. V2MessageRow now renders t('podChat.mentionNotInPod', { handle }) instead of the server's notice.message, so a zh-CN reader gets {{handle}} 不在这个 Pod 中。请邀请对方加入,或到对方已加入的 Pod 中提问。. That has a half-width space after the Latin handle and around Pod, uses , and 。, and has no em dash. The MCP tool result keeps the server sentence, as intended.
Non-blocking, unchanged from my last review: "Invite them, or ask in a pod they're in" still points at actions the line offers no way to take. It's fine as a follow-up.
No CSS change, so the quiet sender-only line renders as before at 1440 and 390.
No blocking render or copy defects.

#2552 TASK-412 code gate at 569e16f: PASS
The sender-notice lookup now uses the same buildMentionMap as agent delivery, grouped by active installation pod and paired with its AgentProfile. That covers the previously missed Scout @guide alias and profile-derived display slug, while preserving silence for an in-pod routing target and for unknown handles. The focused tests exercise out-of-pod and in-pod forms of both handles. The existing sender-only v2 response and structured MCP notice paths remain intact. I found no remaining code defect in the requested mention-feedback property at this head. Exact-head CI was still running when I reviewed it.
Credit: @kite implemented the correction and focused tests; @lumen separately passed render and copy at the preceding head and is rechecking this one.

Render re-stamp at f4a55eb, a fast-forward from my PASS at 81a9967 via 569e16f and f4a55eb.
Both commits are backend services and tests only (alias map shared with sender feedback; empty human notices omit the field). No frontend, CSS or locale change. When the field is absent, message.mentionNotices?.map renders nothing, so no empty line appears.
No render or copy defects.

#2552 TASK-412 code gate at f4a55eb: PASS
The delta only omits mentionNotices when the list is empty in the non-DM delivery return. This restores the existing response shape for ordinary sends while retaining the structured sender notice when a known out-of-pod handle is present. The DM branch already uses the same conditional shape. The affected controller assertions and delivery-service tests now cover omission on empty notices; the preceding alias/profile map correction remains in place. I found no code defect in this delta. Exact-head CI was rerunning when I reviewed it.
Credit: @kite implemented the response-shape correction and focused tests; @lumen separately gates rendering.

You can configure the timeout using the `serverSelectionTimeoutMS` option to `mongoose.connect()`: socketTimeoutMS: 1000 // Note that mongoose will **not** pull `bufferCommands` from the query string }); ` The disadvantage of putting options in the query string is that query string options are harder to read. The advantage is that you only need a single configuration option, the URI, rather than separate options for `socketTimeoutMS`, etc. Best practice is to put options that likely differ between development and production, like `replicaSet` or `ssl`, in the connection string, and options that should remain constant, like `socketTimeoutMS` or `maxPoolSize`, in the options object. The MongoDB docs have a full list of supported connection string options. Below are some options that are often useful to set in the connection string because they are closely associated with the hostname and authentication information. * `authSource` - The database to use when authenticating with `user` and `pass`. In MongoDB, users are scoped to a database. options]]' [, options]); ` For example: `mongoose.connect('mongodb://user:pw@host1.com:27017,host2.com:27017,host3.com:27017/testdb'); ` To connect to a single node replica set, specify the `replicaSet` option. `mongoose.connect('mongodb://host1:port1/?replicaSet=rsName'); ` ## Server Selection The underlying MongoDB driver uses a process known as server selection to connect to MongoDB and send operations to MongoDB. If the MongoDB driver can't find a server to send an operation to after `serverSelectionTimeoutMS`, you'll get the below error: `MongoTimeoutError: Server selection timed out after 30000 ms ` You can configure the timeout using the `serverSelectionTimeoutMS` option to `mongoose.connect()`: `mongoose.connect(uri, { serverSelectionTimeoutMS: 5000 // Timeout after 5s instead of 30s }); ` A `MongoTimeoutError` has a `reason` property that explains why server selection timed out. For example, if you're connecting to a standalone server with an incorrect password, `reason` will contain an "Authentication failed" error. `const mongoose = require('mongoose'); const uri = 'mongodb+srv://username:badpw@cluster0-OMITTED.mongodb.net/' + 'test?retryWrites=true&w=majority'; // Prints "MongoServerError: bad auth Authentication failed." mongoose.connect(uri, { serverSelectionTimeoutMS: 5000 }).catch(err => console.log(err.reason)); ` </excerpt> </source> <source kind="search"> <title>Connection String Options - Database Manual v7.0 - MongoDB Docs</title> <location>https://www.mongodb.com/docs/v7.0/reference/connection-string-options/</location> <excerpt>citeturn0search1 [wordlim: 200] Crawled: today; The timeout applies to all steps in an operation, including server selection, connection checkout, and server-side execution.`timeoutMS` has no default value. ... `connectTimeoutMS` ### Timeout Options Connection Option | Description --- | --- `timeoutMS` | The time in milliseconds to attempt an operation before timing out.

If you do not specify a value, the driver applies individual timeout options, such as `socketTimeoutMS`.If you set `timeoutMS` in the connection string, the driver ignores other timeout options, and the timeout applies to every operation in the client. You can override `timeoutMS` at a more specific level, but you cannot unset the value. To learn more about timeout inheritence, see Limit Server Execution Time.IMPORTANT: `timeoutMS` is not yet supported by all official drivers.

However, `keepAlive` has been `true` by default since Mongoose 5.2.0, and `keepAlive` is deprecated as of Mongoose 7.2.0. ... You can configure the timeout using the `serverSelectionTimeoutMS` option to `mongoose.connect()`: ... So far we've seen how to connect to MongoDB using Mongoose's default connection. You may want to decrease `maxPoolSize` if you are running into connection limits. * `minPoolSize` - The minimum number of sockets the MongoDB driver will keep open for this connection. The MongoDB driver may close sockets that have been inactive for some time. You may want to increase `minPoolSize` if you expect your app to go through long idle times and want to make sure your sockets stay open to avoid slow trains when activity picks up. * `socketTimeoutMS` - How long the MongoDB driver will wait before killing a socket due to inactivity after initial connection. A socket may be inactive because of either no activity or a long-running operation. `socketTimeoutMS` defaults to 0, which means Node.js will not time out the socket due to inactivity. This option is passed to Node.js `socket#setTimeout()` function after the MongoDB driver successfully completes. * `family` - Whether to connect using IPv4 or IPv6. This option passed to Node.js' `dns.lookup()` function. If you don't specify this option, the MongoDB driver will try IPv6 first and then IPv4 if IPv6 fails. If your `mongoose.connect(uri)` call takes a long time, try `mongoose.connect(uri, { family: 4 })` * `authSource` - The database to use when authenticating with `user` and `pass`. In MongoDB, users are scoped to a database. If you are getting an unexpected login failure, you may need to set this option. * `serverSelectionTimeoutMS` - The MongoDB driver will try to find a server to send any given operation to, and keep retrying for `serverSelectionTimeoutMS` milliseconds. If not set, the MongoDB driver defaults to using `30000` (30 seconds). * `heartbeatFrequencyMS` - The MongoDB driver sends a heartbeat every `heartbeatFrequencyMS` to check on the status of the connection. A heartbeat is subject to `serverSelectionTimeoutMS`, so the MongoDB driver will retry failed heartbeats for up to 30 seconds by default. Mongoose only emits a `'disconnected'` event after a heartbeat has failed, so you may want to decrease this setting to reduce the time between when your server goes down and when Mongoose emits `'disconnected'`. We recommend you do not set this setting below 1000, too many heartbeats can lead to performance degradation. ## serverSelectionTimeoutMS The `serverSelectionTimeoutMS` option is extremely important: it controls how long the MongoDB Node.js driver will attempt to retry any operation before erroring out. This includes initial connection, like `await mongoose.connect()`, as well as any operations that make requests to MongoDB, like `save()` or `find()`. By default, `serverSelectionTimeoutMS` is 30000 (30 seconds). This means that, for example, if you call `mongoose.connect()` when your standalone MongoDB server is down, your `mongoose.connect()` call will only throw an error after 30 seconds. `// Throws an error "getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND doesnt.exist" after 30 seconds await mongoose.connect('mongodb://doesnt.exist:27017/test');` Similarly, if your standalone MongoDB server goes down after initial connection, any `find()` or `save()` calls will error out after 30 seconds, unless your MongoDB server is restarted. While 30 seconds seems like a long time, `serverSelectionTimeoutMS` means you're unlikely to see any interruptions during a replica set failover. If you lose your replica set primary, the MongoDB Node driver will ens…[truncated]</excerpt> </source> <omitted_sources count="95">Additional source records were omitted from this bounded result.</omitted_sources> </source_evidence> Citations: - 1: https://mongoosejs.com/docs/7.x/docs/api/schema.html?utm_source=openai - 2: https://github.com/Automattic/mongoose/blob/master/docs/migrating_to_7.md?utm_source=openai
Do not block mention delivery on the advisory Mongo lookup.
deliverMessageToAgents awaits senderNotices before enqueueMentions. The lookup runs four Mongoose queries, and its rejection fallback does not handle a pending query. Production does not configure an operation or socket timeout. A stalled lookup can therefore leave the stored message without mention delivery and keep the POST pending until the caller times out.
Start mention delivery before the advisory lookup, then apply a bounded wait to the advisory result. agentsRuntime.ts already starts enqueueing before awaiting its notice lookup, so this finding applies to deliverMessageToAgents.
