GroupPage's 6620-line app.js carried Chat and Files wedged in directly, with
no way to add another group-level app without touching the shell itself. It
is now app.js (routing, non-group pages) plus nine focused files — apps.js
(the registry), chat-app.js, files-app.js, video-player.js, group-page.js
(the shell), group-settings.js, hub-client.js, icon.js and file-utils.js —
with docs/apps.md as the checklist for adding one (Videos/Music/Photos are
sketched there, not built).

Node side gained the matching enablement mechanism, mirroring
member_upload exactly: a roster setting, a signed apps_enabled op enforced
by _has_admin_authority, exposed in the handshake ack. Operators toggle
applications per group from Settings, which also gained a small reorder:
Invite, Pairing, Applications, Shared directories, Uploads, danger zone,
Your devices, Members.

Two bugs surfaced during the split, both missing an import across the new
file boundary and invisible to node --check or a module-load probe since
they only throw when the code path actually runs:

- group-page.js called onRefreshAuth on a stale-token handshake rejection,
  but app.js never imported refreshAccessToken from hub-client.js — so a
  brand new member (including a group's own creator) hit "Not a member of
  this group" and the retry silently failed, throwing before it could
  refresh the token.
- chat-app.js called getLocale() for message timestamps without importing
  it from i18n.js. Opening Chat on a group with real messages threw mid-
  render; uncaught, that appears to wedge Preact's render scheduler, so
  every button on the page stopped responding until reload.

Caught the second class of bug with a proper no-undef audit across all
split files (a temporarily installed ESLint 9, since the system one is too
old to parse this codebase's syntax) rather than trusting grep. 827 tests
pass; 6 new ones cover the apps_enabled policy.

- test_transport_contracts: CreateGroupPage was refactored into a
  routing wrapper; assertions now read CreateGroupFormSimple
- test_task_lifetime: _spawn now uses an _on_done wrapper instead of
  a bare self._tasks.discard callback; assertion checks both parts
- test_video_buffer_ceiling: target the real updateend handler, not
  the settled() utility; add awaitingInitRef to the MSE harness scope
- test_video_seek: silence debug console.log in window_leak harness
  so it does not pollute the JSON output

<title>fix: the chat tab no longer scrolls, and a group is listed or invite-only</title>

**The chat tab was 8px too tall, at every window size.** The panel is sized from
JS to `viewport - top - 16`, which puts its bottom 16px above the fold — but it
sits inside `.main`, which adds 24px of padding below it. Eight pixels of
document past the window, whatever the window. Measured at 700, 900 and 1200:
`scrollHeight` 708, 908, 1208.

This is the second one of these — the sign-in card was `.page-center` and
`.layout` each reserving `100vh - 52px` — so it is now measured in the suite
rather than reasoned about. `tests/harness/scroll_probe.py` renders the real
markup against the real stylesheet and **runs the real `fit()` lifted out of
`app.js`**: a copy of the formula in a test would go on passing after the
original changed, which is exactly the bug being guarded.

The fix does not encode 24 anywhere. The first pass runs as before, then the
leftover is measured and taken off, so anything added below the panel later is
absorbed the same way. Now `scrollHeight == innerHeight` at all three heights,
nothing below the fold, and the panel still fills the room it has — that last
one has its own test, because shrinking the chat to 240px would satisfy every
other assertion here and be useless.

The Settings tab was measured too and is **not** a bug: it fits at 1200px and
overflows only when its content is genuinely taller than the window.

**Group creation asked one question twice.** Visibility and admission were
separate selectors that could only ever be set together — picking Public reached
over and set the policy — and two of the four combinations are meaningless. The
API already refused public+invite with a 422, so the form could build a request
that could not succeed. Private+open was accepted and should not have been: a
group anyone may join that nobody can find is a listing with the listing
removed, since joining goes through the node and there is no link to pass
around.

So: one selector, "who can join", and the request derives the rest. The API now
refuses the other impossible pair as well, with a message that says which way to
resolve it. Six locale strings the visibility box owned are deleted rather than
left unread in ten files, and the two surviving descriptions now say what each
choice means for who can *find* the group — with the word "public" gone from the
page, nothing else would have said it, and someone would publish a group without
meaning to.

865 tests pass.

<title>fix(hub): a session that renews itself</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6562665c80f96f30fef95af83a0abcf71f41795f</id>

Reported: after an hour of watching a film, every action answers "token expired
or invalid", with signing out and back in as the only way on. Reopening the tab
the next day did the same.

The access token lasts an hour and the refresh token thirty days, and nothing
used the second one. `hubFetch` reported a 401 like any other error, and
watching a film is precisely an hour in which the hub hears nothing at all,
because the video travels over WebRTC. So the token aged out with no request to
notice, and a tab reopened the next morning presented a stale token with a
perfectly good refresh token sitting beside it in localStorage.

Underneath was the reason it could not be recovered from. The hub *rotates*:
the refresh endpoint revokes the token presented, returns a replacement, and
treats a revoked one presented again as theft, revoking the whole family. The
client kept only the access token out of that response. So the refresh token was
spent on first use and the second attempt did not merely fail — it destroyed the
family. Which is exactly the reported symptom.

Renewal now happens on a margin, on returning to the tab, on mount, and on a 401
with the request replayed. Concurrent renewals share one request: two 401s
racing would otherwise present the same refresh token twice, and the hub cannot
tell that from theft, so the remedy would have been worse than the fault. A
refusal signs out cleanly rather than leaving a session that fails every call
while looking signed in.

The lifetime goes to four hours, which is not what makes long sessions work —
renewal is — but is what someone has to notice by if renewal itself breaks. An
hour was less than a feature film. Twelve was considered and declined: it widens
the window in which a leaked token cannot be turned off, and it lets the renewal
path go a whole day between uses, which is how it came to be broken here without
anyone noticing. Production sets this in its own hub.toml, so both moved.

The tests run the shipped code against a hub that enforces rotation, because a
stub that accepted the same refresh token twice would have passed against the
broken client. Checked that dropping the rotated token reproduces the revoked
family, so the guard is guarding something.

Also widens the orphan-setter rule to ignore `setX` functions declared in the
module: `setAuth` is not a hook setter, and a rule that cries wolf is one
somebody eventually silences. Verified it still catches a real orphan.

<title>feat(hub): chat, presence, a Profile page, and downloads that do not freeze</title>

Chat opens on the newest hundred messages, loads fifty older on demand with the
reading position anchored — the distance from the *bottom*, since everything
above the viewport just grew — and follows new messages only when the reader was
already at the end. Day separators, sender grouping, an unread marker, and a
jump-to-latest pill. Messages are keyed by id: index keys plus prepending makes
Preact reuse the wrong bubbles.

A presence dot per group in the sidebar, three states, each backed by something:
the hub's registry, or a connection this browser made or failed to make. Never
colour alone — red and green are the pair colour-blind readers cannot separate —
so each dot carries a title and an aria-label.

Profile is split out of Settings: identity, node link, pinned node identities and
account deletion. Mixing them put an irreversible button two scrolls under a
theme picker. The create-group page loses its centred 520 px card, which left
190 px of margin either side, and its two button panels become a radio group —
a button conveys no chosen state to a screen reader, and side by side they read
as two independent actions rather than one either/or.

The Files toolbar shows its actions as icon buttons the moment Select is on,
disabled when they do not apply rather than appearing and vanishing. On a phone
the right-hand group could not wrap and ran 130 px off the screen.

Streamed downloads no longer freeze after one chunk. `registration.active` says
a worker exists, not that this page is controlled by it — and an uncontrolled
page's requests never reach its fetch handler, so the worker took the stream and
was never asked for it, leaving `writer.write()` waiting on backpressure that
would never lift. The page now requires control and the worker confirms it
actually served the request before the sink is trusted.

Fixed on the way: `setActionsOpen` outlived the state it belonged to and threw
on every Files action; the chat scrollbar stopped short of the bottom; the
owner's row sat lower than the rest; About showed a version hardcoded two
releases ago.
