            <b>{m.senderId}</b>: {m.decryptedText}
          </li>
        ))}

## 📥 Accessing Chat History

Chat history is fetched **automatically** when the user joins. All messages are decrypted with your `secretKey`.

---

## 🔁 Admin Takeover Logic

You can trigger handler takeover:

```js
const { takeover } = useChat(...);
takeover(); // Makes current user the new handler
```

---

## 🏗 Works in:

- ✅ React.js
- ✅ Next.js App Router
- ✅ Node.js test scripts

---

## 📁 Server Setup (Hosted Microservice)

To host your own server, clone [chat-server](https://github.com/your-org/chat-server) and set up `.env`:

```env
PORT=4000
MONGO_URI=your-default-db-uri
```

---

## 🧠 Multi-Tenant Support

Register your `apiKey` and `mongoUri` in the `Tenant` collection to isolate DB access per organization.
