It was Gate One: https://github.com/liftoff/GateOne
(Note: Company no longer exists so it is unmaintained, fork at will =)
It's been so long since I've looked at the code but I did write excellent documentation, most of which is generated from docstrings. Example:
https://github.com/liftoff/GateOne/blob/master/gateone/core/...
You can read the documentation here:

If you look at the bookmarks plugin you can see an example of how I performed this style of client<->server synchronization using an Update Sequence Number (USN):
https://github.com/liftoff/GateOne/blob/6ae1d01f7fe21e2703bd...
After the web client connects to the websocket all the plugin's `init()` methods are called and the bookmarks plugin's javascript file calls `userLoginSync()`:
https://github.com/liftoff/GateOne/blob/6ae1d01f7fe21e2703bd...
It sends the current USN (which is retrieved from `localStorage`) to the server (the routing is quite sophisticated... Just know that the message ends up going to the correct function =) and if it's different from the USN on the server the server will send an updated list of bookmarks to the client at which point the client will take care of that via its own handler:
https://github.com/liftoff/GateOne/blob/6ae1d01f7fe21e2703bd...
If you examine the bookmarks.js from top to bottom (it's not THAT long) you should get the gist of where and how various states are stored. That plugin mostly deals with stuff in `localStorage` but if you poke around in Gate One you'll see vastly more sophisticated state synchronization and state update routines at work.
