HiveSuite

Added a detailed community confirmation popup that appears before selecting a community in the post composer.
Integrated the community details API to fetch and display important community information before users continue with their post.
The confirmation screen now provides a structured overview including:
- Community avatar
- Community name and details
- About section
- Community rules
- Subscriber count
- Active user statistics
- Required beneficiary information
Added line-by-line rule presentation so users can review community guidelines clearly before posting.
This provides better awareness of community requirements and helps users understand the selected community before continuing with the publishing workflow.

Community Confirmation & Rules

Replaced lightweight community lookups with full community metadata fetching.
Added support for retrieving posting_json_metadata, allowing HiveSuite to access required community beneficiary configuration along with other community information.
This ensures that community-specific posting requirements are available before the composer is submitted.
Added beneficiary requirement warnings directly into the confirmation experience so users can see when a community requires specific beneficiaries.

Added support for lockedBeneficiaries within the composer.
Required community beneficiaries are now displayed directly in the composer with a lock icon.
Locked beneficiaries cannot be edited or removed by the user once they are required by the selected community.
This helps ensure that community-specific beneficiary requirements are preserved throughout the complete posting workflow.

Fixed draft hydration and render synchronization issues related to locked community beneficiaries.
Ensured that required beneficiaries remain available when loading previously saved drafts.
Improved synchronization so locked beneficiaries do not unexpectedly disappear during composer state updates.
Prevented synchronization issues that could previously result in repeated rendering or inconsistent beneficiary state.

Added deep equality checks to compare beneficiary state more reliably.
Improved stable state handling to prevent automatic beneficiary removal.
Reduced unnecessary composer re-renders caused by beneficiary state synchronization.
These changes provide a more predictable composer experience when community requirements and user-selected beneficiaries are combined.

Locked Beneficiaries in Composer

Added automatic injection of required community beneficiaries whenever a community is selected in the composer.
Required beneficiaries are retrieved from the community metadata and added to the composer automatically.
The same beneficiary handling is maintained across different content creation workflows, including:
- New posts
- Saved drafts
- Templates
- Video posting retries
This ensures that community beneficiary requirements are consistently applied regardless of how the composer was opened or restored.

HiveSuite now combines community metadata, community rules, and beneficiary requirements into a more complete pre-posting experience.
Before publishing, users can review the selected community's information and understand its rules and required beneficiary configuration.
Required beneficiaries remain locked once injected into the composer, preventing accidental changes that could conflict with community requirements.
This creates a stronger connection between community governance requirements and the actual publishing workflow inside HiveSuite.

Community Metadata & Beneficiary Requirements

Fixed cascading render warnings caused by state resets occurring during the rendering lifecycle.
Deferred specific state reset operations using a microtask to ensure state changes occur safely after the current rendering cycle.
Combined this with stable beneficiary synchronization and deep equality checks to reduce unnecessary state updates.
The result is a more stable composer experience with fewer unnecessary renders and improved state consistency.

npm run build

Confirmed successful production compilation after the community confirmation, metadata hydration, beneficiary locking, and synchronization changes.
No TypeScript or compilation errors were found during the final build verification.
This confirms that the updated community and beneficiary workflows are integrated successfully into the HiveSuite and HiveReactKit development environment.

HiveSuite Community & Composer Improvements

Continuously improving HiveReactKit with reusable composer functionality that helps Hive applications implement community-aware posting workflows.
Building shared infrastructure for community metadata, beneficiary requirements, locked composer fields, and reliable draft synchronization across the Hive ecosystem.
Improving HiveSuite with clearer community rules and About information so users can understand community requirements before publishing content.
Adding automatic community beneficiary handling to help preserve required Hive community configurations throughout drafts, templates, video retries, and normal posting workflows.
Contributing open-source enhancements that improve usability, consistency, reliability, and long-term maintainability for Hive frontends using HiveReactKit.
These improvements continue the broader effort to make Hive applications more community-aware while keeping the publishing experience simple and reliable for users.
