READ_SMS sits behind restricted settings outside a store and Play
keeps it for the default SMS application: not worth a second build.

<title>feat(auth): the recovery key never reaches the hub</title>

<id>urn:sha1:28c77b7648b2a44a18be64ec44344d91cccfd742</id>
<content type='text'>
Ticking "also e-mail it to me" at registration sent the recovery key R in
the register body, and the hub appended it to the verification e-mail: the
hub saw R in clear on its way out, and the resend door — no captcha — let
anyone who knew a pending username and address have the hub mail a
"recovery key" of their choosing.

The box is gone. The recovery screen offers "E-mail it to myself", a mailto:
link that opens the person's own mail application with the key filled in;
the desktop shell hands mailto: to the system (http, https and mailto only)
and the Android shell to a mail application (ACTION_SENDTO). The CLI drops
--email-recovery-key and prints the key, as before. The hub mails the code
alone, and refuses a register that still carries a recovery_key rather than
dropping it, so an older client offering the option cannot tell someone
their key was sent when it was not.

A mailbox holding R remains, with the reset code that reaches the same
mailbox, enough to recover the account's identities; the link says so, and
it is the person's choice.

Checked in Chrome and Firefox (headless, the real page against a stubbed
hub) and by the CLI's end-to-end registration against a local hub. The
Android change was not built here, and the desktop link was not clicked in
the application.

<title>feat(hub): replace reCAPTCHA with a self-hosted proof of work</title>

<content type='text'>
Sign-up and passphrase reset sent every visitor's address and browser
details to Google, which needed a consent the sign-up form could not ask
for freely. The hub now issues its own challenge (ALTCHA's scheme, signed
with a key derived from the hub's private key, single-use, 30 minutes)
and the page solves it with SubtleCrypto while the form is filled in.

- GET /v1/users/captcha issues a challenge; 404 captcha_disabled when off.
- [captcha] enabled / max_number replace site_key / secret_key, which are
  now ignored with a warning; MESHBAY_CAPTCHA_ENABLED replaces the old
  variables.
- No Google origin left in the CSP of the hub, the desktop shell or the
  Android shell; captcha_site_key leaves /v1/hub/info.

<title>feat: let the operator pause and resume a root's indexing (MNP 6.2)</title>

<content type='text'>
A whole-root walk now checks its root before every file: removed or
ejected, it stops instead of reading the drive to the end; paused, it
finishes from the hash cache alone. A paused root is not watched, not
swept by reconcile and survives a restart (roster), its indexed files
stay served. Resume runs the reconcile sweep over the root, so entries
and their enrichment are kept.

Signed root_pause / root_resume over MNP, loopback routes, CLI
`root pause|resume`, a pause button on the indexing dock and
pause/resume in the roots table of Group settings.

Slices are asked for in the address, not a Range header the WebView drops;
a settings change runs at once; the notification is updated once a second;
the SMS section says how to lift Android's restricted setting; the photo
section says whether videos are included.

A WhatsApp section takes WhatsApp's folder through the picker, sends its
encrypted Databases and Backups (not the dated copies of earlier weeks) into
&lt;folder&gt;/&lt;account&gt;-whatsapp, and names the restore set in the manifest.

Photos, videos and files record, per file, their path on the node, their path
and album on the phone, dates, size and SHA-256, uploaded as
meshbay-manifest/manifest-&lt;date&gt;.jsonl once the run is done.

A Files section takes folders through the system picker (no storage
permission), refuses DCIM, Pictures and Movies, skips what the photo backup
sends, and runs on the photo backup's own runner into &lt;folder&gt;/&lt;account&gt;-drive.

A 'Videos too' option, off by default, sends them into the same YYYY/YYYY-MM
folders. Files are read from the phone a ranged chunk at a time, so a large
video is never whole in the page.

into &lt;folder&gt;/&lt;account&gt;-calendar once a day when it changed.
