Changelog Entry

Description

  • Fixes #22742. When viewing a shared chat as an unauthenticated user, UserMessage.svelte crashes with TypeError: can't access property "id", Z() is null because user is null in the shared chat context.

Fixed

  • Added null checks for user in UserMessage.svelte to prevent crash when viewing shared chats as unauthenticated viewer
  • ProfileImage block is now wrapped in {#if user} guard
  • Added fallback display for message author when user is null (shared chat view)
