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>docs: generate an HTTP API listing for the hub and the node control API</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.meshbay.org/meshbay.git/commit/?id=b8671635cd891068afee81fde05bed880124ec85'/>
<id>urn:sha1:b8671635cd891068afee81fde05bed880124ec85</id>
<content type='text'>
docs/MESHBAY_HTTP_API.md lists every route of the hub (by domain, with the
authentication each requires) and of the node's loopback control API. It is
written by docs/generate_http_api.py from the routes and their docstrings;
test_http_api_doc.py fails when the file drifts from the code or when a
route has no docstring, so a new route must say what it does.

79 routes had no docstring and get a one-line description; a few whose first
line did not describe the route get a summary line.

The login page's developer docs gain an API link next to Design and
Protocol, in every language. README, MESHBAY_DESIGN.md (§0.1, §6.7, §7) and
CLAUDE.md point to the listing; README also points to examples/.

The examples scripts with a shebang become executable.

<title>feat(protocol): MNP 4.0 flag day for the node-audience token (B2)</title>
<updated>2026-09-25T15:43:28Z</updated>
<author>
<name>Christophe Besson</name>
<email>cbesson@gmail.com</email>

<published>2026-09-25T15:43:28Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.meshbay.org/meshbay.git/commit/?id=3f3c67a4aff7b800c271e88e2bc5e5294b010fb9'/>
<id>urn:sha1:3f3c67a4aff7b800c271e88e2bc5e5294b010fb9</id>
<content type='text'>
The node-audience token (previous commit) is a change to what a peer must
present, so it is a MAJOR per the versioning rule (§5.6): a pre-4.0 client
presents its hub session token and a 4.0 node refuses it, and there is no
compatibility branch, because leaving one would keep a hub credential reachable
by every node (C6's lesson). So the floor moves with the version.

- MNP_VERSION 3.4 -&gt; 4.0 and MNP_MIN_SUPPORTED 3.0 -&gt; 4.0 (meshbay_common);
  transport.js MNP_V/MNP_V_MIN -&gt; 4.0 to match.
- MIN_CLIENT_VERSION 0.13.0 -&gt; 0.16.0 so a stale desktop client is told to
  update before connecting rather than meeting a handshake refusal it cannot
  read; the browser reloads this build from the hub.
- Regenerate tests/golden/dispatch.json: the only change is the `v` the node
  stamps on outbound messages, 3.4 -&gt; 4.0 (56 cases, v field only).
- Document the split and the flag day: MESHBAY_DESIGN.md §5.2 (the handshake
  token is the MNP-audience token), §5.6 (the 4.0 flag day), register E10 and
  decision 23; MESHBAY_NODE_PROTOCOL.md §6.3 (authorize_token binds MNP_AUD)
  and the wire-version banner.

Deploy is coordinated and atomic (common+hub+node+SPA together); a live
browser-to-node validation and the deploy itself remain. common (173), node
(1489, the pre-existing test_cli_golden argparse/prog artifact aside) and hub
(1471) suites all green.

<title>style: ruff's own fixes, mechanically applied</title>

`ruff check .` had gone unrun long enough to report 568 errors, which is the
same as having no linter: the next real finding would have been invisible in the
noise. This is the 521 it fixes by itself, in 173 files, and nothing else — the
98 it cannot fix are the next commit.

What actually changed: import sorting (225), imports nobody used (87, none of
them a re-export — no `__init__.py` is touched, which was the one way this could
have broken an import elsewhere), `datetime.timezone.utc` to `datetime.UTC` (69)
and `asyncio.TimeoutError` to `TimeoutError` (18), both plain aliases on the 3.12
this project requires, `Optional[X]` to `X | None` (24), and f-strings with
nothing to interpolate (19).

Checked rather than assumed: every module in the three packages still imports,
and the suite is 2893 passed — the same count, test for test, as the merge
before it.

<title>feat(hub): session lifetime is an admin setting, and a browser signs out when idle</title>

Browser idle sign-out (media playback counts as activity; not the desktop app),
refresh idle window and maximum session length, in hours. Sign-out now revokes
on the hub, and the profile has "sign out everywhere".

<title>fix(hub): federation is closed until two hubs have run it</title>
<updated>2026-09-13T20:14:47Z</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.meshbay.org/meshbay.git/commit/?id=413837a0845240241ed7e9d9ac1f3b1dc45a2f40'/>
<id>urn:sha1:413837a0845240241ed7e9d9ac1f3b1dc45a2f40</id>
<content type='text'>
Every MHP route answers a stated 503. `federation.FEDERATION_ENABLED` is the
only thing that decides it, applied as a dependency on the router so the six
routes that exist and any added later are covered by construction — a gate you
have to remember to write in each handler is the shape C6 is the standing
lesson about.

The protocol is not what is wrong with it. What is wrong is that nothing has
ever run it: two hubs have never completed one authenticated request between
them. AV14 was two defects in the same path — an issuer signing with a key
bound before it was loaded, naming itself after the reference deployment
whatever the instance was called, and a verifier naming no audience for the
`aud` the issuer sets, which PyJWT refuses outright. Both stood for a month
behind a green suite, and both were found by reading rather than by running,
because a second implementation of a peer proves the protocol and nothing about
two machines.

Four of the six routes carry no authentication of their own — the MHP token is
the authentication — and two of those write, a directory push and a revocation.
That is the surface being closed until somebody stands up a second hub.

A constant and not a `hub_settings` row, deliberately: a switch in the admin
panel invites an operator to turn on a feature that has never worked between
two machines, where this takes an edit, a deploy, and reading the comment above
it. `/v1/hub/info` reports the state, because the `mhp_version` beside it would
otherwise be a claim the hub does not honour.

The protocol tests open the gate for their own duration and say why; the one
that runs with the flag as it ships asserts all six routes refuse. §7.6 states
the closure, §15.2 carries federation between two hubs as not built.
