Research direction
Start at ee/packages/federation-matrix/src/api/_matrix/client/rooms-lifecycle.ts around line 250 and trace how the endpoint currently resolves rooms. Check the surrounding federation API entry points for alias-resolution handling. Done means this endpoint also accepts room aliases, with the relevant behavior covered by the project’s existing tests if one is identified.
