+## Fix Applied (2025-12-25)
+
+Root cause: Text shapes arriving from other clients had `props.text` but the deserialization code was:
+1. Initializing `richText` to empty `{ content: [], type: 'doc' }`
+2. Then deleting `props.text`
+3. Result: content lost
+
+Fix: Added text → richText conversion for text shapes in `AutomergeToTLStore.ts` (lines 1162-1191), similar to the existing conversion for geo shapes.
+
+The fix:
+- Checks if `props.text` exists before initializing richText
+- Converts text content to richText format
+- Preserves original text in `meta.text` for backward compatibility
+- Logs conversion for debugging
