Matrix room membership

Use this page when Matrix transport looks healthy, but the bot still seems absent, silent, or inconsistent inside the room you actually care about.

Core ideaA healthy homeserver connection does not prove the bot is meaningfully present in the room you are testing.
Practical split

Check room membership before rebuilding the transport layer

Looks healthy

Membership is probably fine

The bot is visibly present and the room tests target the exact room identity you expect.

Real blocker

Membership is probably the problem

DMs or other Matrix paths work, but the target room stays silent or the room identity is uncertain.

Operator rule

Check room identity first

Verify membership and the exact room before rotating credentials or rebuilding the homeserver path.
