+`StreamChatClient.hideChannel`, `showChannel` and `deleteChannel`, `Channel.hide`, `show` and `delete`, and
+`StreamChannelListController.deleteChannel` in `stream_chat_flutter_core`. A `try`/`catch` around one still
+compiles, but no longer catches a failed call: read the returned `Result` instead.

+  Navigator.of(context).pop();

+// v11
+final result = await channel.delete();
+result.fold(
+  onSuccess: (_) => Navigator.of(context).pop(),
+  onFailure: (error, _) => report(error),
+);

+
+**Each call answers its own response** where v10 answered `EmptyResponse`: `HideChannelResponse`,
+`ShowChannelResponse` and `DeleteChannelResponse`, which carries the deleted channel in a nullable `channel`.
+
+**`StreamChatApi.channel.hideChannel`, `showChannel` and `deleteChannel` are removed.** Call them on

+**Goal:** Move hiding, showing and deleting a channel ahead of [11](11-channels-and-members.md): they answer only a `duration` or a channel [15](15-partial-updates.md) already maps, so they need none of the message mappers.

+| `POST` | `/api/v2/chat/channels/{type}/{id}/show` | `showChannel` | `ShowChannelResponse` |
+
+## Decisions taken
+
+- **Split out of [11](11-channels-and-members.md), ahead of it.** None of the three reads anything
+  into client state — the `channel.hidden`, `channel.visible` and `channel.deleted` events do that —
+  and the one channel they answer goes through `channels_mapper.dart`.
+- **The v2 routes are the v1 handlers.** `lib/chat/routes.go` mounts hide, show and delete in the
+  shared `coreRoutes`; none is gated, in beta or deprecated.
+- **Moved off `ChannelApi`:** `hideChannel`, `showChannel` and `deleteChannel`, each now a
+  `StreamChatClient` method over `ChannelsRepository`.
+- **Each write answers its own envelope,** where v10 answered `EmptyResponse`: `HideChannelResponse`,
+  `ShowChannelResponse` and `DeleteChannelResponse`, freezed, in `models/response/`, with the spec's
+  names. `DeleteChannelResponse.channel` is nullable, as the spec declares it. `Channel.hide`, `show`
+  and `delete` keep their names.
+- **`StreamChannelListController.deleteChannel` returns the `Result`,** as `muteChannel` does.
+- **`hard_delete` is not exposed.** The server refuses it from a client-side token, and v10 never sent it.
+- **Show sends no body,** where v1 sent `{}`; the server accepts both. Hide still sends `clear_history`.
+- **The read and delivery receipts stay in 11 for now.** `markRead` and its siblings share endpoints
+  with the thread read calls, fabricate a response on the local-unread path, and feed
+  `MessageListUnreadController` and the public `ChannelDeliveryReporter`, which rely on a throw; they
+  move in a slice of their own.
+
+## Risks
+
+
+## Definition of done
+
+- [x] Every method above either routes through `DefaultApi` or is listed here as deliberately left
+      hand-written, with the reason.
+- [x] Public methods return `Future<Result<T>>`; no `getOrThrow()` inside the SDK.
+- [x] Hand-written request/response DTOs for this group are deleted, or their retention is justified.
+- [x] `copywith_audit.py` was run for every model that loses a v10 `copyWith`, every site it reports is
+      handled, and the semantics change is in the CHANGELOG and the guide ([README rule 2](README.md#domain-models)).
+- [x] `melos run analyze` clean, `melos run test:dart` green, persistence tests green if this group
+      persists anything.
+- [x] `migrations/v11-migration.md`: Symbol Map rows plus a feature section for every break.
+- [x] CHANGELOG entry under `🛑️ Breaking` for each break; PR title `refactor(llc)!:`.
+- [x] Decisions recorded in this file, and the status box ticked in `README.md`.
+- [x] Public dartdoc follows [`STYLE_GUIDE.md` § Documentation](../STYLE_GUIDE.md#documentation)
+      and [`EFFECTIVE_DART_DOC.md`](../EFFECTIVE_DART_DOC.md), including on symbols this group
+      retyped but whose docs it left alone.
+- [x] Tests follow [`TESTING.md`](../TESTING.md): no `group` organizing a file by method, each
+      name states its subject and behaviour.

 - The sort argument on every list controller is typed `List<ChannelSort>`, `List<MemberSort>` and so on, rather than `SortOrder<T>`. On the controllers that have a default, the `sort` property is non-nullable: leaving it unset selects that default, and `ChannelSort.empty` / `MemberSort.empty` / … query with the ordering the API applies on its own.
 - `defaultChannelListSort`, `defaultMemberListSort`, `defaultUserListSort`, `defaultDraftListSort`, `defaultMessageReminderListSort` and `defaultPollVoteListSort` are removed. Use `ChannelSort.defaultSort`, `MemberSort.defaultSort` and so on from `stream_chat`. Leaving a controller's sort unset still applies the same ordering.
 - `StreamChannelListController.muteChannel` and `unmuteChannel` return a `Result` instead of throwing.
+- `StreamChannelListController.deleteChannel` returns a `Result<DeleteChannelResponse>` instead of throwing.
 - `StreamPollController.addOption` and `updateOption` take the option's custom data as `custom` instead of `extraData`.
