Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I'd like to chat with people without them "ever logging in" (notice, I'm not saying "without them registering" because that might be done automatically in background as well as subsequent manual removal or manual "merge" with an existing account).

This is basically to mimic chat from Zendesk or similar "ChatOps" solution but based purely on NextCloud and its apps.

Describe the solution you'd like

UI & behavior similar to Zendesk, but using NextCloud and its Contacts & Talk/Spreed & etc. apps as "backend".

Describe alternatives you've considered

Using Zendesk itself. But it's not integrated with NC Contacts (see feed support for an example how such integration could/should look lie) nor with other NC apps.

Research direction

The issue names no repository files, tests, or entry points. Start by mapping how Nextcloud Contacts and Talk/Spreed handle unauthenticated users and account creation, then compare that with Zendesk-style chat behavior. Done would require an agreed UI, authentication flow, and integration scope before implementation can begin.
