 ## [Unreleased] – 2026-07-14 · SysnaptiK Neural Rebrand
 
 ### Marke & Plattform
+- **NeuralNet aufgeräumt:** Der leere Gesprächshinweis verschwindet beim Öffnen
+  wirklich, die letzte Verbindung wird pro Konto gespeichert und beim nächsten
+  Besuch direkt wieder geöffnet. Die Sprechblase bleibt neutral und invertiert
+  nur bei ungelesenen Nachrichten.
 - **NeuralNet-Benachrichtigung:** Die Dashboard-Glocke ist jetzt eine
   Sprechblase. Sie zeigt den echten Zähler ungelesener Direktnachrichten und
   leuchtet in der Neural-Akzentfarbe, bis die Nachrichten gelesen sind.

Ziel: User können sich befreunden, intern miteinander schreiben, gemeinsam lernen und Achievements vergleichen – **vollständig selbst gehostet, ohne einen einzigen externen Dienst**, und DSGVO-konform von Grund auf.
