fix: custom category never highlighted in the emoji picker header - #42158
Proposed changes (including videos or screenshots)
getCategoriesList splices the Custom category out of the list and pushes it to the end, so its divider is always the last entry in categoriesIndexes. The scroll handler worked out the active category by dereferencing the next entry to find where the current one ends:
There is no next entry for the last one, so undefined >= startIndex is always false, find returns undefined, and the if (!category) return; below it skips setCurrentCategory. The category that is unconditionally placed last is the one this lookup can never reach.
Before
After
Reading the tablist directly on my test workspace, before the change:
Fixing only the off-by-one is not enough. createPickerEmojis emits a divider row for Custom whether or not the workspace has any custom emoji, so on a workspace with few or none the divider sits among the final rows and the list runs out of scroll before it can reach the top. On my workspace the list is 227 rows, the Custom divider is row 225, and clicking Custom leaves the rendered range at 217-225 with 32px of scroll to spare. No rule based on the first visible row can select it there.
So getCurrentCategory keeps the existing behaviour for every other category, matching the last divider above the top of the viewport, and treats the final category as current as soon as its divider is rendered. I checked the old and new lookups against each other across every scroll position: they agree everywhere except inside the last category, where the old one returned undefined and left the header unchanged.
Click the Custom category, the rocket icon at the end of the header.
The list scrolls to the Custom divider and the rocket icon is highlighted.
Also worth checking that the rest of the header still tracks scrolling: click a category in the middle, then scroll by hand through a few sections and watch the highlight follow the section at the top of the list.
Further comments
Pulling the lookup out of the component makes it testable on its own, so helpers.spec.ts covers the top of the list, the middle categories, the divider boundary, the last category, and an empty list. Jest already picks up client/**/*.spec.ts, so no config change was needed.
Verified against a local 8.9.0-develop workspace with no custom emoji, which is the case that fails hardest. tsc --noEmit and eslint are clean on the changed files, and the client unit suite passes.

Bug Fixes
Fixed category highlighting in the emoji picker while scrolling. The active category now updates more accurately when its section becomes visible, including the Custom category.
It looks like this branch is under active development. To avoid overwhelming you with review comments due to an influx of new commits, CodeRabbit has automatically paused this review. You can configure this behavior by changing the reviews.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits setting.
The emoji picker now determines the active category using both the first and last visible row indexes. Tests cover the helper and picker behavior. Patch changeset entries describe the Custom-category highlighting fix.

Summary
Category detection helper and tests packages/ui-emoji-picker/src/lib/emoji.ts, packages/ui-emoji-picker/src/lib/emoji.spec.ts
getCurrentCategory selects a category using the visible range. Tests cover empty and single-category lists, scroll positions, and visible dividers.
Emoji picker integration and release metadata packages/ui-emoji-picker/src/components/EmojiPicker.tsx, packages/ui-emoji-picker/src/components/EmojiPicker.spec.tsx, .changeset/cyan-dolls-shave.md
EmojiPicker passes both visible range indexes to getCurrentCategory. Picker tests check the selected category at different ranges. The changeset adds patch entries for the picker and Meteor packages.
The change addresses Custom-category highlighting during scrolling. Clicking a category when the entire list fits remains a pre-existing limitation, not a new regression; no actionable merge-blocking risk is established.

Explanation
The title "fix: custom category never highlighted in the emoji picker header" matches the main change. The PR adds a getCurrentCategory helper and uses it in EmojiPicker's handleScroll so the Custom category is selected when its divider is in view. The changeset and tests cover the same fix.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
Issue #42133 requires the Custom category icon to become active while the Custom section is in view. At the reviewed head, getCurrentCategory in packages/ui-emoji-picker/src/lib/emoji.ts returns the last category when startIndex > 0 and the last category's divider index is at or before endIndex. This covers the case where the list cannot scroll the Custom divider to the top. Otherwise, the helper returns the last category whose index is before startIndex, falling back to the first category. EmojiPicker.tsxhandleScroll passes both startIndex and endIndex to this helper and calls setCurrentCategory with the result. Other categories keep the previous selection behavior. The helper and picker tests cover the top of the list, middle categories, the divider boundary, the last category, empty lists, and the EmojiPicker range-driven selection. Edge case, not a failure: when startIndex is 0, the helper never selects the last category, even if its divider is rendered. This occurs only when the whole list fits in the viewport, which the native emoji list does not produce in practice. The PR description names helpers.spec.ts, but the diff summary places the helper tests in emoji.spec.ts. This naming difference does not affect the requirement.

Explanation
All changed files relate to issue #42133. emoji.ts adds the getCurrentCategory helper that replaces the faulty next-index lookup. EmojiPicker.tsx switches handleScroll to the helper, a 3-line and 7-line change. emoji.spec.ts and EmojiPicker.spec.tsx add unit and picker tests for the new selection rules. The .changeset/cyan-dolls-shave.md patch entry describes the same fix for the affected packages. The diff summary shows no unrelated product behavior, and getCategoriesList and the emoji search logic remain unchanged.

getCategoriesList always moves the Custom category to the end, so its
divider is the last entry of categoriesIndexes. The scroll handler
bounded each category by dereferencing the next entry, which does not
exist for the last one. The lookup returned undefined, and the current
category stayed stale while Custom was on screen.
A workspace with few or no custom emoji also leaves the Custom divider
among the final rows, where the list runs out of scroll before that
divider can reach the top. Picking by first visible row alone never gets
there, so the last category now becomes current once its divider is
rendered, provided the list has scrolled at all. A list short enough to
fit entirely on screen is still showing its first category.
RocketChat#42309 added the useMergedRefsV2 import directly above the lib/emoji
import this branch extends with getCurrentCategory, so the two edits
conflicted on adjacent lines. Both imports are kept.

helpers.spec.ts calls getCurrentCategory directly, so nothing catches a
regression between Virtuoso and the helper. Swapping the two arguments
in handleScroll, or dropping endIndex, leaves every helper test green
while the header stops following the list.
These cases render the picker with a stubbed Virtuoso, push a range
through rangeChanged and read back the selected tab. One of them fails
on a swapped argument, the other on a missing endIndex.
Bumping this one. It has been open since 16 September without a reviewer assigned.
The bot review threads are resolved, and the latest push adds the caller-level test CodeRabbit asked for on the handleScroll wiring. The CLA is signed and the changeset is in.
No Actions run has been triggered on the branch yet, and the merge checks are still waiting on the stat: QA assured label and a milestone. Those need a maintainer.
Happy to rebase onto develop or rework anything if the approach needs changing.
@dougfabris sorry for the direct ping. You are one of the recent committers on the emoji picker, so you may know who should pick this up, or whether it needs a different approach. Any pointer would help.
develop moved the picker into packages/ui-emoji-picker and added its own
apps/meteor/client/lib/emoji/helpers.spec.ts, so the fix moved with it.
getCurrentCategory now sits in the package's lib/emoji.ts next to
getCategoriesList, its unit tests went into lib/emoji.spec.ts, and the
component test became src/components/EmojiPicker.spec.tsx. The meteor side
keeps develop's helpers.ts and helpers.spec.ts untouched.

handleGoToCategory only scrolled the list and left the header to catch up
from the range callback. A list short enough to fit on screen reports no
new range, so clicking a category moved nothing and the tab never lit up.
The click now selects the category itself; scrolling still retracks it.
