feat(node): accept a device link request before the proof (MNP 6.3)

2026-10-14T20:20:15Z

A new device of a known account holds no identity the node pinned, so it cannot complete a handshake until a pinned device approves it: it now files device_add_request in the pre-proof window, as the desktop app's case already required. The request stays inert until countersigned; at most 10 are pending per account, the oldest dropped. A 6.2 node answers it "Handshake required", which a client reads as "cannot link here".

fix(node): index, serve and write files past Windows' MAX_PATH

2026-10-14T09:17:38Z

With the system's default setting (LongPathsEnabled off) every call given a plain path of 260 characters or more refuses it, so a deep library was partly invisible: the walk could not list such a directory and its files never reached the members. The node now hands each call that touches a group's disk the extended form (paths.long_path), and keeps the plain path in the index, the hash cache and the log. A directory is listed under its long form and its entries named from the plain one (indexer.walk_files, wire._walk_dirs). Covered: the walk, stats and hashing, reconcile and the watcher, the folder list members see, serving over WebRTC and QUIC, deletion, uploads and their recovery, folder creation and removal, audio tags and the cover beside a track, photos, and a show's episode numbering. ffmpeg extends a long path itself and keeps the plain one. long_path now normalises before prefixing (the extended form skips the system's normalisation) and starts at 248 characters, where creating a directory is already refused. test_long_paths.py runs with the setting off: 15 of its 17 tests fail without the change. Checked by hand in the installed app with files at 312 to 380 characters. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

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

2026-10-11T22:17:32Z

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.

feat: let the operator purge a group's chat (MNP 6.1)

2026-10-09T10:17:38Z

Signed chat_purge from the Chat settings deletes every stored message; epoch keys and attachments stay. The ack is broadcast so open chat panels empty. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

perf(node): sample 9 MB with the size above 9 MB, keep known ids

2026-10-07T23:27:58Z

hash_version 3: size + first 4 MB + last 4 MB + 1 MB at the middle, 5.5x faster cold on a USB disk than the 45 MB sample. The cache now serves a hit under whatever version it holds, so no existing id moves. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

fix(node): name members admitted without an invitation name

2026-10-07T20:20:45Z

A member who joined by link, by a new device or into an open group was pinned in the roster with no name, so the audit log showed only the first characters of their id. The hub's MNP token now carries the account's username, and after the handshake the node writes it into the roster for an account whose name is empty. An invitation's name is never overwritten; the name is a label, authority stays on `sub`. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

refactor(mnp): remove ten operator messages no client sent

2026-10-02T08:51:19Z

node_status, node_settings_set, roster_read, denylist_read, denylist_clear, node_reload and the signed gek_rotate, member_unpin, transfer_limits, group_detach leave MNP 6.0; the Node page and the CLI do this work over loopback. Their ops keep their tests, moved to the ops level. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5
