…eam-chat stream-chat renames ensureWatched() to watch(): it sends nothing for a channel already watched and loaded and resolves with the instance to use. The channel and user search results and the channel detail's "send direct message" action call it. A message search result loads its channel with the jump alone (jumpToMessage with watchChannel), one request instead of a watch followed by the jump. Refs REACT-1341.

watch() itself sends nothing for a channel already watched and loaded, and initialized does not mean watched or loaded, so the tutorial, ai-chatbot and vite examples call it directly. The vite deep link loads its channel with the jump alone (jumpToMessage with watchChannel). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Require the matching stream-chat release before consuming watch() as a channel.
The declared stream-chat@10.0.0-rc.24 returns a server response from watch(), not a Channel. The supplied pipeline therefore reports TS2345 when Lines 247–248 pass dm to navigation and ingestion. If this version runs, the direct-message action also passes the wrong object. The same return assumption occurs in UserSearchResultItem. Update the root, example, and peer dependency requirements to a release with the new contract before merging these call sites. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

stream-chat marks ChannelManager.ensure() internal; client.channel() is the public way to get a channel and calls it. The search result DM, the "send direct message" action, the mock builders and the tests use client.channel(). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

🎯 Goal
Follow GetStream/stream-chat-js#1943 (REACT-1341):
Channel.ensureWatched()is renamed toChannel.watch(). The newwatch()sends nothing for a channel already watched and loaded, joins a watch in flight, and resolves with the instance to use.Needs a stream-chat release that includes GetStream/stream-chat-js#1943: until then
ensureWatched()still exists andwatch()resolves with the server response, so this branch does not type-check against the publishedrc.24. Thestream-chatversion is bumped once that release is out.🛠 Implementation details
SDK
ChannelSearchResultItem,UserSearchResultItemand the channel detail's "send direct message" action callwatch()instead ofensureWatched(); the DM flows still use the instancewatch()resolves with.MessageSearchResultItemloads its channel with the jump alone:jumpToMessage(item.id, { watchChannel: true })loads the page around the message and the channel state, and watches, in one request. It used to callwatch()first for a channel that was never loaded, which sent a newest-page query before the jump's own query.Examples
await channel.watch()without anif (!channel.initialized)guard.watch()itself sends nothing for a channel already watched and loaded, andinitializeddoesn't mean watched or loaded: a channel from a list queried withwatch: false, or afterquery()/create(), isinitializedwithout being watched or without messages.?focus=<cid>:<messageId>deep link loads its channel with the jump alone, like the message search result.Docs
AGENTS.md,ai-docs/ai-migration-v14-v15.md,ai-docs/instance-configuration.mdandai-docs/v15-breaking-changes.mddescribe the singlewatch(), and point tochannel.reload()for refreshing a watched channel.CHANGELOG.mdis generated and left as is.client.channel()instead ofchannelManager.ensure()ChannelManager.ensure()as@internal;client.channel()is the public way to get a channel and calls it, with the same behaviour.examples/vite/docs-playwright),AGENTS.mdand the AI docs callclient.channel().client.channel()as the public way to get a channel, calling the internalchannelManager.ensure().Tests
SearchResultItem: the "already watched" test marks the channel watched and loaded and checks that no query is sent; the message result test expects the jump alone, with{ watchChannel: true }.ScrollToLatestMessageButton: the tests that simulate a reconnect re-query throughchannel.reload(), sincewatch()on a watched channel now sends nothing.yarn types,yarn lintandyarn test(3168) pass; the vite, tutorial and ai-chatbot examples type-check. Checked in the vite example in the browser.🎨 UI Changes
