 - **Open a ticket**: Create a new Markdown file under `codex/tickets/` using the ticket template. Assign a unique ID that matches the filename (`ticket-ID.md`) and choose an initial priority (P0–P3).
 - **Register the ticket**: Add a row to `codex/STATE.md` capturing the ticket metadata. The table is the authoritative board and must mirror the ticket front matter.
+- **Set the owner handle**: Record the ticket owner's GitHub handle in both the front matter and `codex/STATE.md`. If the handle is not yet known, write `unknown` and replace it before any work begins.
 - **Deliver incremental work**: Keep updates small, land pull requests frequently, and cross-reference the ticket in PR descriptions.
 - **Maintain the board**: Whenever the status, owner, linked PRs, or priority changes, update both the ticket front matter and the `STATE.md` row.
 - **Close the loop**: Before marking a ticket **Done**, verify the acceptance criteria, ensure linked PRs are merged, and capture the final log entry.

+title: Stabilize group name search input
+---
+
+## Context
+
+> Typing into the "By Group Name" search field freezes the browser and drops characters because each keystroke appears to trigger a full route change, causing race conditions between the URL and the input state.
+
+## Plan
+
+- [x] Reproduce the input lag locally and capture the triggering code path.
+- [x] Identify existing debounce/search handling helpers that can be reused.
+- [x] Apply the minimal fix to keep the input responsive without extra reloads.
+
+## Acceptance
+
+- [ ] Typing into the "By Group Name" search box remains responsive with no missed characters.
+- [ ] Search results continue updating to reflect the current query.
+
+## Links
+
+- Primary PR: [#1540](https://github.com/6529-Collections/6529seize-frontend/pull/1540)
+- Follow-ups: _(reference additional tickets or TODO items)_
+
+## Log
+
+- 2025-10-14T09:06:25Z – Ticket opened and investigation started.
+- 2025-10-14T09:12:52Z – Debounced router updates to stop query-string races and keep typing responsive.
+- 2025-10-14T09:14:58Z – Elevated group card action menu z-index so options render above REP/NIC buttons; project checks flagged pre-existing type errors in GroupsPageListWrapper.tsx.
+- 2025-10-14T09:20:31Z – Bumped identity search results z-index to keep option clicks from falling through to group cards.
