MEDIUM: Enable video playback from Concierge harpoons #33385

Open quinthar opened 6 months ago

quinthar commented 6 months ago

Problem: Elsewhere we are working on adding the ability to upload and play videos inside arbitrary chats. However, Concierge messages aren't sent in a normal fashion.

Solution: Upgrade the harpoon system -- which is generated by code -- with the option to embed a short-form video that is playable both in chat, and in the UnreadMessageSummary email (via animated GIF). This overlaps heavily with the project to allow users to upload and play videos, but is a little different as these messages are being sent via Harpoon (and thus, could cut some corners, such as by uploading the videos themselves manually via #infra or custom query).

Demoting to Medium as we have quite a lot to do, and we don't need this for VSB release (though the sooner the better)

Been working on wave issues, no update last month.

Still focused on wave-collect issues.

Focused on fast-apis and wave issues at the moment, going to put this back in the pool to avoid hogging it.
