feat(android): no text messages backup, and one build again

2026-10-15T13:09:58Z

READ_SMS sits behind restricted settings outside a store and Play keeps it for the default SMS application: not worth a second build. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

fix(auth): the sign-up notice links the privacy statement, with a space

2026-10-15T12:33:03Z

The link under the Register button was glued to the sentence before it: htm drops whitespace that holds a line break, so "deleted.Legal information". It also pointed at the hub's /legal/ index. Where an account is created is where GDPR art. 13 owes the person the information about their data, so it now links the privacy statement itself — /legal/confidentialite.fr.txt in French, /legal/privacy-statement.en.txt in every other language — on the hub that served the page, like every legal link. The sidebar's "Legal information" is unchanged. Checked in Chrome and Firefox (headless), in English and French. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

feat(hub): one account, several linked nodes

2026-10-15T07:33:28Z

An account links up to MAX_NODES_PER_ACCOUNT node keys (node_keys table) instead of the one users.pk_node_ed25519; the migration carries each account's key over and the downgrade keeps the last one linked. /v1/nodes/auth accepts any linked key, and its token names the key that won it (nk). PUT /me/node_key adds a key, idempotently, 409 past the limit; DELETE /me/node_key names the key: a browser session any of its own, a node only its own. Unlinking a key closes that node's socket and refuses its tokens at once, on REST and on the socket; the account's other nodes are untouched. /pubkeys no longer gives a node key to other accounts, and gives the caller its last linked one, which installed desktop apps read. The node reports waiting_for_node_key while its key is unlinked and signs in again as soon as the hub says so, so a key linked again is back within seconds; unlinking itself signs in first to hold a token naming its key. Profile -> Linked nodes lists each node (connected, last seen, IP, linked since, This machine in the desktop app) with Copy and Unlink, and adds a key by hand. The Node page banner, Create group and the desktop app add this machine's key instead of replacing another's. Messages that pointed at Settings -> Link Node point at Profile -> Linked nodes.

feat(hub): tell the person at sign-up what the hub keeps and why

2026-10-11T21:43:35Z

A line under the Register button: creating an account accepts the hub's terms of use, and the law requires the hub to keep the connection log (IP address, date, action) for one year, even after the account is deleted. It links to the legal pages of the hub in use, so a self-hosted hub shows its own operator's documents. A notice, not a checkbox: the account rests on the contract and the log on a legal obligation, so there is no consent to ask for, and one that blocks sign-up would be neither free nor withdrawable. legalUrl() moves to platform.js, shared by the sidebar and the form.

fix(android): what the first backup on a phone showed

2026-10-10T15:09:12Z

Slices are asked for in the address, not a Range header the WebView drops; a settings change runs at once; the notification is updated once a second; the SMS section says how to lift Android's restricted setting; the photo section says whether videos are included. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

feat(android): back up WhatsApp's own chat backups, and its media if asked

2026-10-10T14:29:20Z

A WhatsApp section takes WhatsApp's folder through the picker, sends its encrypted Databases and Backups (not the dated copies of earlier weeks) into /-whatsapp, and names the restore set in the manifest. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

feat(android): send a manifest of what each backup run sent

2026-10-10T14:15:48Z

Photos, videos and files record, per file, their path on the node, their path and album on the phone, dates, size and SHA-256, uploaded as meshbay-manifest/manifest-.jsonl once the run is done. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

feat(android): back up the files of folders the person chooses

2026-10-10T13:50:39Z

A Files section takes folders through the system picker (no storage permission), refuses DCIM, Pictures and Movies, skips what the photo backup sends, and runs on the photo backup's own runner into /-drive. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

feat(android): back the videos of the chosen albums up beside the photos

2026-10-10T13:11:52Z

A 'Videos too' option, off by default, sends them into the same YYYY/YYYY-MM folders. Files are read from the phone a ranged chunk at a time, so a large video is never whole in the page. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

feat(android): back the calendars up as an iCalendar file

2026-10-10T12:52:57Z

A Calendar section sends every calendar the person can edit, as a dated .ics, into /-calendar once a day when it changed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5
