ExplorePage → explore-page.js (static import), LoginPage/RegisterPage/
FirstRunPage → auth-page.js (static import, LoginPage receives onLogin
as a prop), CreateGroupPage/wizard → create-group-page.js (lazy-loaded
via dynamic import(), same pattern as AdminPage/NodePage).

app.js goes from 1803 to 914 lines. webapp.py _ASSETS extended with the
three new files and the previously missing extracted pages. Test fixtures
updated to follow the moved components.

b6f3139 renamed `fit` to `fitAndPin` in chat-app.js and rebound the
resize / orientationchange / visualViewport listeners to it, but
test_the_panel_refits_when_the_viewport_changes still grepped for the old
name and failed. `fit` itself still exists (fitAndPin wraps it), so
test_the_measurement_survives_a_scrolled_page was unaffected.

<title>fix(hub): chat scroll-to-bottom, message loading on group switch, connecting spinner</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c4813d1aaf1f4fdf3eb9dc07909f324f5745544d</id>
<content type='text'>
Three regressions fixed in ChatPanel:

- Scroll pinning: layout effect now depends on [messages, hasMore] so the
  "load older" button appearance triggers a re-pin; setHasMore is called
  before setMessages to avoid an intermediate render without the button;
  fit() is wrapped in fitAndPin() so panel resizing re-pins the scroll.

- Message loading on group switch: fetch effect depends on the status prop
  instead of transportRef.current?.connected to avoid racing with
  GroupPage's cleanup; loadedRef resets on fetch failure so a retry works.

- Connecting spinner restored in the Chat tab empty state.

Adds structural regression tests (test_chat_scroll_bottom.py) that lock
the dependency arrays and setState ordering so these invariants break
loudly in CI.

<title>feat(hub): group names unique per owner, shown as name@owner</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.meshbay.org/meshbay.git/commit/?id=58ca879b017da62e77f40752d8d94fef3f315a1e'/>
<id>urn:sha1:58ca879b017da62e77f40752d8d94fef3f315a1e</id>
<content type='text'>
A group's identity stays its UUID. What changes is that "the name is
unique" — until now an unenforced expectation — becomes real, scoped to the
owner account, and the owner's username is surfaced so two groups called
"photos" on different nodes can be told apart.

Hub:
- `groups` gains a functional unique index `uq_groups_owner_name` on
  `(admin_id, lower(name))` (model + migration c3d4e5f6a7b8). The migration
  pre-flights: if the data already clashes it aborts and lists the
  offending (admin_id, name) pairs rather than renaming anyone's group.
  meshbay.org checked clean.
- `create_group` trims the name, rejects blank (422) and an owner-scoped
  case-insensitive clash (409), with an IntegrityError backstop for the
  race, and returns `owner_username`.
- `owner_username` added to `/v1/groups/mine`, `GET /v1/groups` (local
  rows), `POST /v1/groups/{id}/join`, `GET /v1/admin/groups`.

SPA:
- new `static/group-name.js` — `&lt;GroupName name owner [inline]&gt;` renders the
  name with the `@owner` handle on a smaller grey line under it.
- used in the sidebar, the group-page header, Explore cards, the Admin
  groups table, and cross-group Search (via a widened `cacheGroupIndex`
  carrying the owner). Delete/leave confirmations show `name@owner` inline.
- federated Explore rows show `@&lt;source_hub&gt;` instead of an account.

Design record and the locked decisions: ~/next/groupnames.md (out of repo).
MNP unchanged. Tests: test_group_name_unique.py, test_group_name_migration.py.

<title>feat(hub): let a hub admin disable public groups instance-wide</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.meshbay.org/meshbay.git/commit/?id=b5b4f188a39fc96c4d32e67151e067b1add6dcfc'/>
<id>urn:sha1:b5b4f188a39fc96c4d32e67151e067b1add6dcfc</id>
<content type='text'>
A new General tab in Administration carries one switch, allow_public_groups,
stored in a hub_settings key/value table (runtime-editable, unlike hub.toml).
Default is on; an absent row means on, so an upgrade changes nothing.

Enforcement is server-side on every hub-mediated path, not just the SPA:

  - create_group        refuses visibility=public (403), staff included
  - list_public_groups  the directory returns nothing (local + federated)
  - join_group          open-joining a public group is refused
  - group_online_nodes  a non-member of a public group is handed no node
  - signaling.webrtc_offer  drops the "node hosts an open group" fallback
  - federation.export_directory  advertises nothing to peer hubs

The switch is read live, so flipping it back restores every path. Existing
members of a group that predates the switch keep their membership row and
their access — this is plan A, not a purge. GET /v1/hub/info exposes the
flag (unauthenticated) so the create-group form and the sidebar's "Public
groups" link render correctly.

Also in the admin Groups tab: a Revoke action beside Suspend. Suspend is the
reversible hub flag; Revoke calls POST /v1/admin/revoke, which sets
status=revoked and broadcasts a signed revocation every node enforces
(denylist + dropped live sessions). It is confirm-guarded and names the group.

And a message fix the revoke work surfaced: group_online_nodes, join_group and
webrtc_offer answered "Group is suspended" for any non-active status. They now
report the real state, so a member of a revoked group is told "Group is
revoked" rather than something reversible-sounding.

Tests: test_public_groups_toggle.py (10) covers the switch end to end and the
five enforcement paths; test_revocation.py gains the status-message assertion.

<title>feat: add Photos group app</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.meshbay.org/meshbay.git/commit/?id=2fcdd07d1e5d331ad02b723f1c45603a0989c264'/>
<id>urn:sha1:2fcdd07d1e5d331ad02b723f1c45603a0989c264</id>
<content type='text'>
A new group application (docs/apps.md's plug-in mechanism), following the
plan in docs/photos.md. Unlike Videos/Music: several photo roots per group
instead of one (photo_roots is a set, one signed op replaces it whole),
a single album-grid view with no third-party matching step, and per-photo
info read from the file's own EXIF at index time — no metadata service,
no credential, no outbound network call at all.

Protocol (meshbay-common, MNP 0.10 -&gt; 0.11, additive): `taken_at`/`camera`
on IndexEntry; `photo_roots`/`photo_roots_ack`; `OP_PHOTO_ROOTS`.

Node: roster.py stores photo_roots as a group_settings entry (JSON list,
same shape as enabled_apps); ops.py/webrtc_server.py validate and sign the
whole set in one op, same pattern as apps_enabled; a new PhotoEnricher
(indexer/enrich_photo.py) runs Pillow in its own small bounded pool,
separate from the video/audio pools, producing a resized thumbnail plus
the two EXIF fields — never GPS, checked by a grep-based regression test.

Client: photos-app.js — one album card per directory containing images,
a per-album photo grid, and a lightbox with next/previous (keyboard and
buttons), zoom in/out/fit/100% starting from the actual on-screen fit
percentage, and a "zip this album" button reusing files-app.js's own zip
mechanism (lifted into file-utils.js's downloadDirectory so both call the
same implementation). group-settings.js gets an add/remove multi-root
picker, distinct from Videos/Music's single-value one.

Bugs found and fixed before this ever shipped, worth keeping the story of:

- enrich_photo.py read width/height from the raw image *before* applying
  EXIF orientation correction, and read DateTimeOriginal off the plain
  0th-IFD Exif object — a real camera stores it in the Exif sub-IFD, which
  Pillow only exposes via get_ifd(Exif). A flat, hand-built EXIF dict
  round-trips through Pillow either way, which is exactly what would have
  hidden both bugs; the regression test builds EXIF with piexif instead,
  matching what real hardware produces.
- photos-app.js's album grouping stripped a trailing path segment from
  entry.path under the assumption it still carried a filename — it
  doesn't (files-app.js's own convention: e.path is already the
  containing directory), so every album collapsed one level into its
  parent. Found live against a real multi-folder library.
- transport.js's ADMIN_OP_TYPES allowlist (already the fix for an
  identical bug on video_root/apps_enabled, see 4783d81) was missing
  photo_roots: its admin_challenge matched no pending request and was
  silently dropped, so saving a photo root just timed out after 30s with
  no error.
- daemon.py pruned a thumbnail when its file left the index (root removed
  or reconfigured) but never forgot the content hash was "already
  attempted" — the same bytes reappearing under a renamed/relocated root
  (an operator's real workflow) were then permanently skipped, forever,
  with nothing to indicate why. Discarding the attempt alongside the
  cache entry on prune is what makes pruning actually reversible.
- packages/meshbay-client's app:// protocol handler served every file
  with no Cache-Control header, so Chromium was free to serve a stale
  cached copy indefinitely — none of several `npm run sync-ui` + reload
  cycles during development actually picked up the new code until the
  renderer's disk cache was cleared by hand. Now sends Cache-Control:
  no-store.
- the lightbox's zoomed image used flex centering (align-items/
  justify-content: center) combined with overflow: auto — a well-known
  trap where the browser centers overflowing content by shifting it, and
  the leading half of that overflow (here, the top of a zoomed photo)
  sits outside what the scrollport can actually reach. Reported live as
  "unusable". Fixed by switching to top/left alignment once zoomed.

<title>feat(hub): Music app client — album grid, flat list, persistent player</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8c780b9928db8145b7fe18ecd137384ccfe25d8f</id>
<content type='text'>
Implements the client half of docs/musicbay.md against MNP 0.8:

- music-app.js: album grid (grouped by artist -&gt; album, from index-time
  artist/album fields) or flat folder view, per-group localStorage
  toggle like Videos. MusicBrainz (music_meta_req) is only looked up
  when a track has no embedded cover at all — well-tagged files never
  trigger a network call, unlike Videos where TMDB is unconditional.
  Reuses video-app.js's MediaThumb/LazyTile (now exported) rather than
  duplicating the chunk-path thumbnail decode + virtualization.
- music-player.js: the persistent player bar — queue, shuffle (Fisher-
  Yates, keeps the current track in place when toggled), repeat (off/
  all/one), volume (localStorage), prev/next, a one-track prefetch
  cache. No MSE, no node-side streaming: a track is downloaded and
  decrypted once via file-utils.js's pipelinedDownload, same chunk
  pipeline Files already uses, then played from a blob URL.
- group-page.js: owns musicQueue/musicbrainzConfig state and renders
  MusicPlayerBar outside the tab-switched area — deliberately, so
  playback survives navigating to Chat/Files, the same reasoning the
  video/preview modals are shell-owned rather than app-owned.
- apps.js: registers "music". transport.js: fetchMusicMeta (keyed by
  path, same reordering-hazard fix as fetchMediaMeta),
  setMusicbrainzConfig/setMusicbrainzEnabled (signed ops, mirroring
  TMDB's), and the three new ack handlers. group-settings.js: a
  MusicBrainz settings section (contact string, per-group toggle) —
  the existing Applications checklist already picks up "music" for
  free, per apps.md's own claim.
- icon.js: music/pause/skip-next/skip-prev/shuffle/repeat/volume,
  drawn in the same stroked style as the existing set.
- i18n: group.tab_music, the music.* and settings_node.musicbrainz_*
  keys, translated (not just copied) across all ten locales, Polish
  carrying full one/few/many/other plural forms for music.n_tracks.
- webapp.py's _ASSETS, test_hook_ordering.py's STATIC_FILES and
  test_transport_contracts.py's SPLIT_FILES gain the two new files.

Full suite (common + hub + node): 1116 passed, no regressions.
`npm run sync-ui` in meshbay-client confirmed both files copied.

<title>feat(node,hub): add Videos group app (poster grid, flat list, TMDB metadata)</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6af05abf410bbd038ce7fa6915a659defc509071</id>
<content type='text'>
Implements docs/mediacenter.md: a "Videos" group application built on the
existing files index rather than a separate catalogue. On the node side,
new indexer enrichment (technical probe, filename/season parsing, thumbnail
generation) runs per-file once an operator has chosen a video_root for the
group, plus a TMDB client for on-demand poster/metadata lookups (never
client-side, thumbnails delivered over the existing chunk path). On the hub
side, a new video-app.js renders a lazily-mounted poster grid or a
thumbnail-only flat list, with TMDB entirely optional per group.

Along the way: the global apps registry now drives Settings' default-tab
picker instead of a hardcoded list, and the video_root is configured from
group Settings (like uploads) rather than from Files, with the node
refusing to run any TMDB/thumbnail work until one is set.

Fixes several bugs found via live testing against a real library, notably
a race between two effects writing the same "image ready" state that could
leave a poster grid spinning forever on a same-tab revisit — see
mediacenter.md §5.4 for the full account of each one.

<title>fix(node,hub): always transcode video audio to stereo AAC, never copy</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b6e2dcea65124673da047f9b3c92bc5e25980d63</id>
<content type='text'>
MSE only decodes AAC/Opus, so copying a source's real audio codec left
non-AAC files silently unplayable in-browser (E-AC-3 additionally made
ffmpeg itself refuse to write the fragmented MP4 header). Audio is now
always transcoded to AAC and downmixed to stereo — multichannel AAC is
accepted by ffprobe/VLC but silently rejected by some browsers' MSE
decoder once real fragments are appended, which forces the SourceBuffer
out of its MediaSource with no explicit error. Video stays copy-only.

Also: report a clear client-side error instead of a bare STREAM_END when
ffmpeg exits nonzero before producing any output, add video-element/
MediaSource error logging on the client for the next time this class of
bug needs diagnosing, and fix a hub test that had grown too broad a scan
window after an earlier, unrelated transport.js change.
