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

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): 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

perf(hub): bound video read-ahead by bytes, not by seconds

2026-09-20T22:21:50Z

A browser limits bytes, so a bound in seconds had to be sized for the highest-bitrate file and every ordinary one then held a fraction of what the same buffer would have taken. Floored at the old 90 s so nothing pulls less than before, and walked up rather than declared. A refused append now waits for an eviction instead of retrying on every tick.

test(hub): the Firefox probe stops opening the developer's own profile

2026-09-19T16:55:53Z

`test_sticky_header.py[firefox]` failed with twelve setup errors whenever a Firefox was open, and the note in CLAUDE.md said to close it and trust the Chrome half meanwhile. The cause was not snap's single instance: the harness pointed HOME at a throwaway directory, snapd sets its own HOME inside the sandbox, and that directory came back empty on every run — so Firefox opened the real profile, which the open browser locks. `--profile` needs a path the sandbox can see: the snap has a private /tmp, and its home interface grants no hidden directory. Both refusals print "Firefox is already running", which it also prints when nothing is. 24 passed in 15s with a Firefox open throughout, against 12 errors in 60s. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5

fix(hub): the members table stops hanging off the side of a phone

2026-09-19T16:32:47Z

`.admin-table` column heads are `white-space: nowrap`, which meets a translated string: "Username" is one word, "Nom d'utilisateur" is three, uppercased with letter-spacing on top. The heads alone overflowed a 360px window by 11px, and on Android an overflowing document takes every sticky element with it. 11px was only what could be measured: the probe served no members, so the table measured its headers and nothing else. With one realistic username in it the same page overflowed by 248px, at 420px-wide windows too. The cells get `word-break: break-word`, as `.file-name` already had. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5

Merge origin/main: the tree-wide ruff pass beside the Music reconnect work

2026-09-19T15:58:05Z

fix(hub): a track with no artist tag reaches the Music grid

2026-09-19T15:22:20Z

The grid's unit is an album, so a track whose artist tag is empty was drawn nowhere — while `empty` counted it and stayed false, so no message appeared either. An untagged library rendered a toolbar over a blank page, with every track one mode-switch away and nothing saying so. It gets a card, the same shape the singleton folding already mints. No cover is looked up for it, or for any album this file invented: the release name is one the browser wrote, and the request cannot match. music_untagged_probe.py renders the real grid and reads the page back.

fix(hub): a reconnect re-reads the index, not just the handshake

2026-09-19T15:13:17Z

_reconnectLoop re-did the handshake and nothing else, so a page kept whatever it last saw until someone reloaded it. That is invisible until the node restarts: it rebuilds its index from index_cache.db, which holds no enrichment, and Music is the one app whose enrichment is persisted nowhere — for the length of the re-read pass it serves tracks with no artist, and the album grid drew nothing. onReconnected was one slot the video player took on open and cleared on close; it is a listener set now, and carries the fresh ack. docs/MESHBAY_DESIGN.md §15.3 records the two defects found alongside and not fixed here.
