## Open now

- PR #117310: fix(gateway): route cap-dropped transcript recovery to the owning store

Most members concern deleted sessions reappearing, including a report that desktop 'Delete session' does not persist for live Discord-sourced sessions, and several gateway PRs addressing store mapping cleanup and the next inbound message. One member, about routing cap-dropped transcript recovery to the owning store, is related to session storage but less directly tied to deletion.
