fix(hub): Search reaches each group with one offer, and a busy hub is not a dead node

2026-09-23T22:10:41Z

The other half of the 4G failure. The page negotiated every group twice: the sweep opened a connection, read the index and closed it, then the warm-up opened the same group again. The sweep, the warm-up and the tiles each had a concurrency ceiling of their own, and together they went past what the hub admits per account. Whatever the hub refused was then reported as "node unreachable" and remembered as down, which put that group last next time. - Every connection goes through ConnectionPool, which holds the page's one ceiling (six at once, sized for twenty groups on a phone) and keeps what the sweep opened for the tiles. A visit costs one offer per group. A refresh costs none for a connection that answers a four-second ping, and a connection that died while the phone slept is replaced, not waited on. - A connection whose index is being read is held against eviction. With more groups than the pool keeps, it was otherwise the least recently used one. - Negotiations still under way when the page closes close what they get, and a sweep cut short that way remembers nobody as down. - transport.js sends an offer again on 429, 502 or 503, honouring Retry-After, with jittered waits of about twenty seconds at worst. Search counts each retry as progress. A 404, 403 or 504 still fails at once, so a dead node costs no time. The fan-out tests assumed a ceiling of three and were re-measured: four dead groups of twelve now hold nothing back, even on a first visit. The pool and the retry run as shipped code, lifted as text, against a fake clock. Each guard was checked by removing it and seeing its test fail. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

fix(hub): a redeemed invitation link leaves the owner's list

2026-09-23T17:30:47Z

The list under "Invite by link" answered every ticket the group had ever minted, so a link that somebody had already used sat there saying "used by " for the thirty days of KEEP_REDEEMED — beside the member row it had just produced, and above the links that still wait for somebody, which are the only ones there is anything to do about. The node's own `member list` had never shown them: it selects `used_at IS NULL`. The listing now selects `redeemed_by IS NULL`, and drops the `redeemed` status and the `redeemed_by` field with it. The row itself still lives for KEEP_REDEEMED, which is what lets a reload or a second tab of the invitation page be answered rather than refused; its comment says that now instead of naming a list it is no longer in. The SPA filters too, because the desktop client's copy of this interface can be newer than the hub it is signed into. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5

feat(hub): open, create and join invitation links in the interface

2026-09-23T16:05:14Z

#/invite takes the link out of the address on load and keeps it in the tab through registration and sign-in; joining is one click, only the ticket goes to the hub, and the code goes only to the node the link names once it has signed its challenge. Members tab gains "Invite by link" (shared e-mail box, pending list, cancel both halves); home page takes a pasted link. Browser probe drives the real app, signed out and in.

feat(hub): invitation-link tickets bound to a verified address

2026-09-23T15:46:48Z

group_invite_links holds sha256(ticket) and the invitee's address blind index; redeeming grants membership to that account only. Owner-only create/list/cancel (a node token may create, never mail), 20 outstanding per group, optional mail written by the hub itself and capped at 10 per sender per day (mail.invite_link_daily_cap). MESHBAY_DESIGN.md §3.4 now carries the whole link design. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

feat: the node signs its handshake challenge (MNP 3.4)

2026-09-23T15:14:26Z

node_pk in handshake_challenge is now signed over the channel binding and both nonces, so a client can check the node key before a join rather than only at the ack. Both transports; the browser and the QUIC client refuse a wrong signature and treat an absent one as an older node. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

feat(hub): make mailing an invitation a remembered choice

2026-09-23T15:01:07Z

A "Send the invitation by e-mail" box under the Invite member field, checked by default and stored as the invite_email preference. Unchecked, invite-notify is never called and the hub never sees the code. 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

fix(hub): removing from a group no longer unpins the account

2026-09-20T23:35:13Z

The node half called `unpin` after `revoke`, and an unpin takes no group: it deletes the identity and every member row the account holds on this node, and drops the stored keypair bundle with them. Taking somebody out of one group took them out of all of them, silently. `revoke` is group-scoped and is what withdraws the key. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5

fix(hub): keep the video read-ahead across a reconnection

2026-09-20T22:43:14Z

A reconnection restarted the stream at the playhead, and that empties the source buffer — spending the whole read-ahead at the one moment it was the thing carrying the film. It carries on from the end of the buffer instead, except where the buffer is short, the stream already ended, or a cast is active: the receiver is fed from the wire and never had that buffer, so resuming there would skip it forward by the lot.
