Type: Enhancement

Priority: P3

Current state: The markDelivered endpoint exists but there is no visual indicator for "seen" status.

Proposed improvement: Show a small "Seen" indicator under messages once the recipient has viewed the conversation. Optional per-user privacy setting to disable outbound read receipts.

Resolved. Read receipts are live in both the full conversation view and the mini messenger widget. Sent messages show a single checkmark, delivered messages show a double checkmark (gray), and read messages show a double checkmark (green) with a timestamp tooltip. Users can disable outbound read receipts in account settings under privacy. The read state is always recorded server-side; the toggle only controls what the other person sees.
