Overview

The Group Action plugin handles messages of type groupMember in category action. These are system messages generated by the SDK when group membership changes occur. They render as centered, pill-shaped bubbles with no sender attribution.

---

Bubble Rendering

• Centered pill — no left/right alignment, no avatar, no timestamp
• Action text — localized description of what happened (e.g., “Alice joined”, “Bob was kicked by Admin”)
• Uses the shared getActionMessageText() utility for localized text generation

Supported Actions

Action	Example text
Member joined	”Alice joined”
Member left	”Bob left”
Member kicked	”Admin kicked Bob”
Member banned	”Admin banned Charlie”
Member unbanned	”Admin unbanned Charlie”
Scope changed	”Admin made Bob a moderator”
Member added	”Admin added Dave”

Context Menu Options

None — group action messages have no context menu.

---

Conversation Preview

Returns the action text (truncated to 100 characters). Falls back to Group action if text generation fails.
