fix: ask in the page instead of native confirm/alert
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 <noreply@anthropic.com>

| **Per-device revocation has no CLI** | A device is revoked over MNP (`roster.revoke_device`), from a device the node has already pinned. On a headless node the operator's only lever is `member unpin`, which removes **every** device of that account — so the per-device control the roster is built around is reachable from an interface and from nowhere else. §6.7 listed a `meshbay-node member device list\|revoke` verb that was never written, and that listing is how this was found: `USERGUIDE.md` was the first document written by reading the CLI rather than this specification, and the verb it copied out did not run |
| **Migrations run on SQLite only** | The chain reaches head and agrees with the models there (§12), which is not where it ships. **The exposure is one revision deep, not the whole chain**: every revision behind the first packaged release was development that no installation ever ran, so nothing replays them on PostgreSQL. What is unguarded is the *next* migration — a default, an index type or a constraint PostgreSQL refuses reaches a deploy without the suite saying so |
| **The loopback path removes access without writing an audit entry** | `ops.revoke_member` and `ops.unpin_member` log to the daemon's log and nothing to `audit.db`; the MNP admin handlers doing the same work audit `member_revoke` and `member_unpin`. So a removal made from the node page or the CLI — the two doors an operator sitting at their own machine actually uses — leaves the journal showing an admission and then, whenever that person next connects, a `join_refused` with nothing in between to explain it. §5.4's signed transcript is not what is missing: a loopback caller is authorized by being on localhost with the run token and signs nothing, so the gap is the record, not the authority. Found by reading a node's audit log for a refusal whose cause was six hours earlier and unrecorded |
+| **The Create group wizard calls two hooks after an early return** | `CreateGroupWizard` (`create-group-page.js`) returns during node detection, before its `useRef`/`useEffect` for provisioning, so the hook count changes between renders. Preact tolerates a list that grows, and nothing is known to break; `test_hook_ordering.py` checks declaration order, not this. Found while tracing the frozen-fields report, which had another cause (`ask.js`) |
| **A node key is read from the terminal or the desktop client, never a browser** | **Accepted.** `meshbay-node status` on the node's own machine and Node → Overview in the desktop client are the two places the key can be read; the Node page is Electron-only, because `platform.node` resolves to "not available" without the bridge, and no hub route exposes the key. The create-group wizard links it automatically over that same bridge, so the manual paste in **Profile → Link Node** exists for the operator who runs the node from a terminal and the hub from a browser — who has a terminal by definition. Anyone linking a node is already at a shell prompt, so a browser-reachable copy would buy nothing and widen what the hub knows about the node |
