Over Yjs awareness each editor tells who it is (F names the person in
the access message), the device it has chosen and the windows it has
open, and nothing else: no pointer, nothing that changes without a
cause, sent only when it changed. Others' states are read with care.
A frame in their colour round a device they chose, a dot on a window
they have open too, a circle with initials each beside the mode
buttons; the bridge tells the dashboard who is there.

?project=<uuid> opens the shared document over /sync and the room over
/sim (RemoteSimHost: messages wait for the socket, a lost socket comes
back with what it watched, F's refusal or parting ends it); instead of
the editor, a word why when F refuses or lets go. F tells each
connection its access at once. Who only reads sees everything and
changes nothing: no palette or undo, a locked surface, the sheet's
fields disabled (tabs stay), no starting or stopping; thawed, the
document comes anew. The toolbar names who started the simulation.
Refusals carry no message, so Hocuspocus writes nothing outside F's
JSON log. A browser test runs three people against a real F.

One room per project for everyone in it, held by a few worker_threads,
each room with a replica of the document that Hocuspocus' direct
connection keeps open: changes go in, what the room writes comes back.
/sim?project=... signs in as /sync does and says refusals and partings
as the socket's closing; only a write grant changes the room. The state
names who started the simulation. After the last person the room stays
60 s, then stops, writes back and ends. Freezing stops a running
simulation and refuses to start one, deleting ends the room without
writing back, revoking lets the person go from the room too; a failed
thread ends its rooms, stopping the service stops them all.

Server F checks the dashboard's entry ticket as itsdangerous does
(tools/ticket-oracle: tickets made by itsdangerous 2.2.0 itself), redeems
it at /__auth for a session cookie (only the key's SHA-256 is kept) and
decides at /sync by the session's grant: none, read or write; a frozen
project is read by everyone; every refusal names its reason (one list in
packages/protocol/src/sync.ts). A WebSocket from a page of another origin
is refused. /svc/* with the service key makes, deletes, freezes and
thaws projects, ends a person's grant or all their sessions (connections
let go) and lists the sessions. Snapshots, restoring and copying move to
F6 (they need the canonical doc.json and an epoch).

A new package, packages/server: Hocuspocus 3.4.4 on /sync, a project a
document, refused with a reason when the store has not got it; every update
stored in Postgres as it comes and compacted after 500 updates, a minute of
quiet and when the last person leaves (FOR UPDATE on the row written when
the project is made); the janitor runs only here, at loading and 250 ms
after a change that is not its own; readers change nothing; /healthz; JSON
log. On closing it takes no one new and closes the sockets too (Hocuspocus'
close is a message after which a client signs in again on the same socket).
The tests use real clients against a throwaway Postgres in Docker.
