chore: license MeshBay — LGPL protocol layer, AGPL for the rest

2026-10-05T07:20:38Z

The protocol layer is LGPL-3.0-or-later in every language it exists in, so any client may use it whatever its own licence: meshbay-common, and the files marked with an SPDX line — keyderive.js, crypto.js, playlist-crypto.js, transport*.js; keyring.js, transcripts.js and argon2-wasm.js on the desktop; Kdf.kt, Keyring.kt and Transcripts.kt on Android. Everything else is AGPL-3.0-or-later, which the RPM specs and package.json already declared without a licence file to back them. Two AGPL section 7 permissions: - group applications may be under any licence when they use the interface only through a named surface (static/licenses/APPLICATION-EXCEPTION.txt); the reference application is 0BSD so that copying it brings no AGPL code; - the Android application may be conveyed linked with Google Play services. Third-party code is accounted for: THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.txt is generated from what a build ships (packaging/third_party_notices.py) for the deb/rpm venv and the frozen Windows node — PyAV's wheel grafts in libx264 and libx265, which its BSD licence does not mention — and the vendored browser libraries get their licence texts and htm-preact.js its provenance. Wheels carry SPDX metadata, RPMs %license, debs a DEP-5 copyright file, every Windows target LICENSE.txt. test_licensing.py holds the line: the LGPL layer imports nothing under the AGPL, the reference application nothing outside the application interface, and every SPDX line is one of the known ones.

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

fix(client): no confirmation dialog for adding a folder or its flags

2026-10-02T08:32:18Z

Removes confirmFolder (addRoot, attachGroup) and the writable confirmation added in e4f6177, with their two catalogue keys. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

feat(mnp): sharing a folder is decided on the node's machine only (MNP 6.0)

2026-10-02T08:20:09Z

root_add, root_update and group_attach leave MNP: adding a directory and switching writable/removable go through the loopback API (native dialog in the desktop app) or the CLI. The operator's Settings tab still lists the roots from any browser, read-only. The desktop app refuses to sign those ops; a loopback flag change now reaches open pages (publish_roots).

chore: remove a spike page served in production and an unused derivation

2026-10-01T11:25:58Z

static/webrtc-test.html posted a raw password to /login from the hub's own origin; meshbay_common/keyderive.py derived keys from a password and nothing called it (F-32). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

fix: downloads are marked and keep their extension; Explorer files are refused

2026-10-01T09:47:39Z

The desktop app writes the Mark-of-the-Web on each file it saves on Windows, as a browser does. Bidirectional controls are reserved characters in a saved name (portable-name.js and paths.sanitize_for_download, and again in the main process), so a name cannot display one extension and carry another. The node refuses uploads of files Windows Explorer acts on by itself: desktop.ini, .lnk, .url, .scf, .library-ms, .searchConnector-ms (F-19). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

fix: an identity signs a named kind, and a device approval answers a request

2026-09-30T19:04:39Z

The desktop main process builds every transcript itself from fields (transcripts.js) and signs no raw bytes; the page's identity has the same contract (crypto.js transcriptFor). The keyring seals no bundle while browser access is off. On the node, device_add must redeem a pending request filed by the same keys, and device_revoke is signed under its own prefix (meshbay:device_revoke:v1), so a retirement signature admits nothing.

chore: bump version to 0.17.0, and the client minimum with it

feat(client): save files under a name every platform can write

2026-09-28T20:25:07Z

A node serves the name its disk gave a file; the client now makes it portable at save time (single file, zip entries, zip name) and says so on the transfer row. Same rule as paths.sanitize_for_download, held by a parity test. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5
