The `IEmoji` type was an untyped index signature (`{ [x: string]: any }`),
which forced unsafe `as unknown as ...` / `as any` casts wherever custom
emoji data was assigned into `emoji.list` (in `customEmoji.ts` and
`useCustomEmoji.ts`).
- Redefine `IEmoji` to reflect the real shape of the custom emoji
create/update/delete payload broadcast over `emoji.updateCustom` /
`emoji.deleteCustom`.
- Extract the previously inline, duplicated `emoji.list` entry union into
a new shared `IEmojiPackEntry` type (native / custom / alias variants).
- `EmojiPackages['list']` in app/emoji/lib/rocketchat.ts now reuses
`IEmojiPackEntry` instead of redefining it.
- Remove the unsafe casts in `updateEmojiCustom` (customEmoji.ts) and
`useCustomEmoji.ts` by building `emoji.list` entries that structurally
match `IEmojiPackEntry` directly.
No behavior change intended; verified manually by adding, renaming,
aliasing, and deleting a custom emoji, and using/reacting with it in a
message.
Closes RocketChat#41265

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.

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: Field wrappers in rocket.chat/fuselage-forms (Field, FieldLabel, FieldRow, FieldError, FieldHint) auto-create htmlFor/id associations, aria-describedby, and role="alert" for errors. Do not manually set htmlFor, id, aria-describedby, or role attributes when using these wrappers. This automatic wiring does not apply to plain rocket.chat/fuselage components, which require explicit ID wiring per the accessibility docs. In code reviews, prefer using fuselage-forms wrappers for form fields and verify there is no unnecessary manual ID/aria wiring in files that use these wrappers. If a component uses plain fuselage components, ensure proper id wiring as per docs.

Timestamp: 2026-07-22T19:03:06.706Z
Learning: In Rocket.Chat’s native emoji pipeline, keep the legacy-parity behavior for ASCII emoticons that appear inside `<code>`/`<pre>`: `apps/meteor/app/emoji-native/lib/getEmojiConfig.ts` may convert matching ASCII emoticons into emoji-span nodes, but the downstream DOM pass in `apps/meteor/app/emoji/client/emojiParser.ts` must restore the emoji span’s literal `title` text when the span’s parent is a `CODE` element. When changing emoji config or parsing, ensure this `<code>` protection behavior is preserved; the planned structural HTML protection should be handled by the post-release message-parser/gazzodown migration rather than by removing/altering this restore logic ad-hoc.

Timestamp: 2026-02-10T16:32:42.586Z
Learning: In Rocket.Chat's Meteor client code, DDP streams use EJSON and Date fields arrive as Date objects; do not manually construct new Date() in stream handlers (for example, in sdk.stream()). Only REST API responses return plain JSON where dates are strings, so implement explicit conversion there if needed. Apply this guidance to all TypeScript files under apps/meteor/client to ensure consistent date handling in DDP streams and REST responses.

Learning: In Rocket.Chat’s Meteor client code, when calling `dispatchToastMessage` with `{ type: 'error' }`, pass the raw caught error object as `message` without manual normalization. `dispatchToastMessage` is designed to accept `message: unknown` for error toasts, so avoid converting errors to strings (e.g., `String(error)`) or extracting `error.message` before passing them.

- Add missing `newFile?: boolean` to IEmoji: emoji.updateCustom events can carry this field (spread from the update request payload), so the type should account for it. (per cubic-dev-ai review on RocketChat#41794) - Add a changeset for the core-typings/meteor patch.

Proposed changes
The
IEmojitype was just{ [x: string]: any }, so it didn't actuallydescribe what a custom emoji looks like. This forced unsafe type casts
(
as unknown as ...,as any) in the code that adds/updates customemoji in the app.
This PR gives
IEmojireal fields, adds a proper shared type for emojilist entries (
IEmojiPackEntry), and removes the unsafe casts bybuilding the objects to match the real type directly. No behavior
change — same functionality, just properly typed.
Issues
Closes #41265
Steps to test or reproduce
Go to Admin → Emoji. Add a custom emoji, use it in a message composer
and as a reaction, rename it, add/remove aliases, then delete it. No
console errors at any step.
