The hub address is where the person's account lives, so it sits with the
account: on the Profile page, after Sessions and before deleting the account.
Settings keeps "Keys on this device", which describes the machine.

The hint now says what the setting is: the hub this application connects
to, and that changing it signs you out while the account stays on that hub.

POST /me/bundle-pepper (was GET) and POST /users/devices require auth_key.
A refreshed or lifted token could otherwise fetch the pepper, or register a
device whose every sign-in carries it. Both callers have just been given the
passphrase.

Off for an account made there: its identities stay on the device and nothing is
left on nodes. Turned on from the Profile page behind a native confirmation;
each node is settled when its group next opens. The hub keeps a mirror a
browser reads to say why a group will not open; it grants nothing.

keyring.js derives, opens, mints, seals, signs and agrees there; the page gets
public keys and a handle. Argon2 comes from the page's own WebAssembly build
(Electron's crypto has none). Without OS key storage the page keeps its keys as
a browser does. A node's bundle is settled after connecting, re-sealed when the
key changed.

<title>feat: bundles sealed per node under the passphrase and the hub's pepper</title>

The session key is M = HKDF(Argon2(passphrase) || pepper, account id); each
node's bundle key and the playlist key derive from it. Bundles are MBK3, bound
to account and node; MBK1/MBK2 are refused by name, never replaced silently.
Playlists move to key v2 and are re-sealed over unreadable node copies.

<title>fix(hub): require the passphrase to change the e-mail on file</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6b9b5394c5ec01c5de01b7bf23bc161792f38278</id>
<content type='text'>
A member hands its hub access token to every node it connects to (the MNP
handshake), so a node operator holds a live bearer token for that member.
PATCH /v1/users/me {email} needed only that token, and the confirmation code
goes to the new address — so an operator could point the account's e-mail at
their own inbox, confirm it, and then use the passphrase-reset path to take the
account over. This is the immediate mitigation of that chain; the full fix
(a node-audience token distinct from the API session token) follows.

Changing the address now requires the passphrase-derived auth_key, verified
through the same throttle as a passphrase change or an account deletion — the
hub still never sees the passphrase. A PATCH that does not change the address is
unaffected. The profile page prompts for the passphrase and derives auth_key
with the existing MeshBayKeys.deriveAuthKey, as the delete and change-password
flows already do.

test_email_change_requires_passphrase.py: refused without / with a wrong
passphrase, proceeds with the right one, and a no-email PATCH still works; red
before, green after. test_mail_is_not_a_relay.py updated to pass the auth_key.

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.

<title>docs: cite MESHBAY_DESIGN.md and a section instead of the merged notes</title>
<updated>2026-09-19T00:12:47Z</updated>
<author>
<name>Christophe Besson</name>

<published>2026-09-19T00:12:47Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.meshbay.org/meshbay.git/commit/?id=20a824118c09af15d6c338db4c9480ffe5cbcdb6'/>
<id>urn:sha1:20a824118c09af15d6c338db4c9480ffe5cbcdb6</id>
<content type='text'>
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 -&gt; §9.8, mediacenter -&gt; §9.7 for the
Videos app and §6.5 where the subject is derived data, photos -&gt; §9.9,
auth-confirm -&gt; §3.6, refactoring-search -&gt; §9.11, invite-pairing-v1 -&gt;
§3.4, per-node-identity-v1 -&gt; §3.2, captcha -&gt; §7.7, chat-sender-keys -&gt;
§4.5, apps/refactor-groups -&gt; §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.

<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): a per-account sign-in lockout, and a reviewed unauthenticated surface</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.meshbay.org/meshbay.git/commit/?id=392b5e4a53aace725794c7bbabf9e95fb4e1b9c5'/>
<id>urn:sha1:392b5e4a53aace725794c7bbabf9e95fb4e1b9c5</id>
<content type='text'>
Passphrase sign-in locks per username: after `login.max_failures` wrong
passphrases (default 4) the name is refused with `429 account_locked` and a
`Retry-After` for `login.lockout_minutes` (default 60), without the passphrase
being checked. Both numbers are instance policy an admin sets from the panel;
zero failures turns it off. The per-IP limit bounds one address, and IPv6
gives every subscriber a /64 of them — an online guess targets an account, so
the account is what is counted.

- Counted by the name as typed, existing or not, so `login` stays uniform (M1).
  The key is a hash: people type passphrases into the username field.
- The attempt is taken before the check in one `INSERT … ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
  … WHERE … RETURNING`, so a concurrent burst gets no more than the limit.
- Sign-in, passphrase change and account deletion count on the same row; the
  last had no rate limit at all.
- A lockout refuses passphrase sign-in and nothing else: sessions, renewal and
  device sign-in continue, and a reset code clears it (AV26). A session learns
  its own lockout from `/v1/users/me`, and the passphrase change checks it
  before re-wrapping any node's bundle — the hub accepts the new passphrase
  only after the nodes have it.

The SPA now shows what the hub said. `loginAndRecover` threw "Login failed:
{json}", so `email_verification_required` never matched and was never shown;
the passphrase-change form rendered no error at all in its first phase.

The unauthenticated surface, reviewed route by route:

- No `/docs`, `/redoc` or `/openapi.json`, in the code. The Caddyfile hid them
  on meshbay.org only; a packaged hub behind any other proxy published all three.
- The node socket's first message must arrive within ten seconds. It is
  accepted before anyone is known, and an unbounded read is a connection any
  stranger holds for free.
- `/v1/relays` answers 503 behind `relay.RELAYS_ENABLED`, as federation does:
  nothing in the tree calls it and two of its routes take no account.
- `test_unauthenticated_surface.py` walks every route and fails on one without
  an authentication dependency that is not listed with its reason.

Verified in Chrome against a local hub: the lockout and wrong-passphrase
messages, the admin section saving both lockout and mail limits, and the
passphrase change refused while locked. Not verified in Firefox (a running
instance blocks the headless one), nor the upsert's concurrency on PostgreSQL.
