feat: copy a file's or folder's #/name@owner link from Files, Music, Photos and Search

2026-10-05T10:23:18Z

"Copy link" puts the address group-link.js resolves on the clipboard, on the hub's origin rather than the page's, so a link copied in the desktop application is not app://meshbay. Files offers it for one row, from the right-click menu or the toolbar with one row ticked (a phone's way in); Music on one track's menu, whose dots a phone has; Photos on a right-clicked tile and in the lightbox's bar. The video player and the file preview carry a link button next to Download. Applications get a `linkFor(entry | folderPath)` prop (MESHBAY_DESIGN.md §9.2) and offer the action only when it names a link. The group page builds it from the hub's row; Search from each result's own group and its path before the merged views prefixed it, and names no link for a folder of the merged tree, which a group name alone does not identify. harness/copy_link_probe.py mounts the three applications in Chrome and reads what reached the clipboard.

feat: open a group, a folder or a file from a #/name@owner link

2026-10-05T09:53:57Z

A group can now be reached by the handle shown under its name, and a path after it points inside the group: #/name@owner/root/dir/file downloads the file and opens Files on its folder; a folder opens Files there. The handle is resolved in the client against the account's own /v1/groups/mine, so no hub route answers for a name and nobody can probe for one. While a group is open the address shows the handle (replace, no history entry); a linked path is taken out of the address once acted on, so a reload does not download twice. Signing in no longer sends everyone home: the form stood in for the page the address named, and that is where a link opened signed out was going. group-link.js holds the parsing and lookups, executed whole by test_group_link.py; harness/group_link_probe.py drives the router in Chrome.

refactor(hub): the transport holds an identity, never a private key

2026-09-30T13:48:51Z

Two public keys, sign() and shared(); the apps take transport.signFn. What holds the keys (this page, or the desktop main process) is the identity's business alone. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

feat(hub): reports from public-group members, decided by an administrator

2026-09-28T20:06:07Z

A report needs a person's account at least a day old, membership of the public group, and fits a daily allowance per account. Past the threshold a hash is queued and administrators are notified; blocking without review is an instance setting, off by default. Report menu item in public groups, Reports tab and settings in the admin panel. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

refactor: remove dead code across packages

2026-09-28T16:22:07Z

Unused modules, functions, constants and client helpers with no caller, the unreachable hub:probe IPC handler, and the CSAM hash matching. Behaviour unchanged; the dispatch golden loses only the two removed message types. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

feat(hub): right-click menu in the Files tab

2026-09-23T13:21:30Z

The toolbar's actions on the row under the pointer, sharing one action list with the toolbar — which keeps showing what does not apply, disabled, while the menu leaves it out. A count only where more than one item is concerned. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5

fix: ask in the page instead of native confirm/alert

2026-09-21T17:53:33Z

A native confirm() or alert() leaves the desktop client unable to type until the window is refocused. ask.js draws both in the page; the SPA test now bans all three browser dialogs. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5

docs: cite MESHBAY_DESIGN.md and a section instead of the merged notes

2026-09-19T00:12:47Z

The per-feature design notes were merged into docs/MESHBAY_DESIGN.md and deleted from the tree on 2026-09-11, but ~230 comments across the three packages still named them — usually written `docs/musicbay.md §3.2`, as though the file were still in docs/. A reader had to know §16 existed to resolve any of them. They now name the section directly. Every mapping comes from §16, the concordance, which already records where each old section landed: musicbay -> §9.8, mediacenter -> §9.7 for the Videos app and §6.5 where the subject is derived data, photos -> §9.9, auth-confirm -> §3.6, refactoring-search -> §9.11, invite-pairing-v1 -> §3.4, per-node-identity-v1 -> §3.2, captcha -> §7.7, chat-sender-keys -> §4.5, apps/refactor-groups -> §9.1–§9.4, desktop-client-v1 per section. Bare citations of the same documents (`draft-v6 §2.11`, `§4.8`, `§3.4`) are retargeted too: those collide with real section numbers in the design document, so leaving them would have been worse than the named form. Four cases the concordance does not cover, each decided rather than guessed: Sub-item references into documents that no longer exist — mediacenter's `§3.3 row 4`, `§3.4b/c`, `apps.md §3b` — name rows and sub-items §9.7 and §9.2 do not reproduce. The module-level citation stays; the sub-item pointer is dropped. The V-findings keep their labels but lose the dead `§10.1/` prefix. §13.8 lists V1–V13 as per-application open items, which is not what the labels mean in these comments, so pointing them at §13.8 would have been a false citation. `apps.md §5`'s virtualization requirement has no counterpart anywhere in the design document. The requirement is stated in the comment itself, so the citation is dropped rather than aimed at a section that does not say it. Comments that attributed a *sentence* to an old note — musicbay's "several thousand files" example, its "what got measured" note, its measured ~11%/~26% cover-art figures, the "original no root, whole shared tree" call — state the fact without attribution now. §9.8 does not contain those sentences and citing it for them would have been wrong. CLAUDE.md's "a reference to a document that no longer exists" row now says the concordance is for git history and out-of-tree material; the code cites sections directly. Verified: 2851 passed, 4 skipped. The 12 errors in the run are the Firefox leg of test_sticky_header.py's browser harness, which is broken at the browser level on this machine — headless Firefox (snap) dies with `[GFX1-]: RenderCompositorSWGL failed mapping default framebuffer`, renders nothing, and the probe exits `{"error": "no measurement"}` after its full 90s wait. Chrome runs the same 12 assertions in 3.2s and passes. Nothing here can affect it: every changed line in style.css is inside a comment. Also checked: ast.parse on every changed .py, `node --check` on every changed .js, the /* */ balance in style.css, and that no changed line exceeds the width its file already used.

fix(hub): the Files listing sorts its folders by the chosen column too

2026-09-15T23:06:03Z

Folders were always ordered by name, whatever the column and direction, so reversing the name sort or sorting by size moved only the files. A folder's size is what it holds and its date its newest file; ties go to the name. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5

feat(hub): drop files and folders onto Files to upload them

2026-09-15T20:55:25Z

Into the folder on screen, under the Upload button's rule. A name already there, or one the node would refuse, cancels the whole drop with a message. Folders are recreated level by level; files go out a few at a time. The in-flight upload guard is keyed by folder and name. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5
