Signs in to the hub, lists the account's groups and their folders, and downloads and uploads files directly with each group's node, end-to-end encrypted. With no argument it opens a two-pane interactive mode (Textual). Session and device keys are kept encrypted under the system's key storage, or a 0600 key file where there is none; node keys are pinned at first contact; a new machine links as a device. Packaged on its own on Linux (deb and rpm, on meshbay-common's venv, with a man page generated from the parser) and frozen next to meshbay-node in the full Windows installer, not the light one, with a self-test the build runs. client/keys.py ports keyderive.js and is LGPL like it.
