Add a status panel at the top of the Node page — always visible, even
before an MNP connection exists — showing the meshbay-node systemd
unit's own state (via `systemctl --user show`, main process only) with
Start/Stop/Restart controls. This is the piece the rest of the page
cannot provide: it has to work while the daemon is stopped or crash-
looping, which the MNP-based sections require the daemon to already
answer.
While touching node lifecycle: `reload` and `restart-daemon` in the
CLI shelled out to pgrep + SIGTERM/SIGHUP and respawned the process by
hand, logging to a hardcoded /tmp path. That pattern already SIGHUPed
a developer's own running node by accident once (see the old
test_cli_dispatch.py comment). Both now delegate to
`systemctl --user reload|restart meshbay-node`, which the unit already
supports correctly (ExecReload=, Restart=on-failure).

When the wizard calls node:start with {hubUrl, username}, the handler
writes a minimal node.toml and a random unlock.key if they don't exist.
The daemon then creates the keystore on first start using the unlock
file — fully non-interactive.
Existing configs are left untouched: if node.toml or unlock.key already
exist, provisioning is skipped and the node starts as before.

Desktop client guides new users through the full onboarding sequence
without a terminal: detect local node → start daemon (systemd with
direct-start fallback for dev) → link node key to hub → create group →
attach directories → gek-init → operator pair.
- node:detect returns configured field to distinguish missing vs stopped
- node:start tries systemctl first, checks is-active, falls back to
spawning the binary directly when the unit crashes (dev mode)
- probeNode() extracts the shared config→token→fetch pattern
- SetupWelcome on empty HomePage links to /create-group
- CreateGroupWizard step 0 handles node detection and start
- platform.js exposes node.installed() and node.start()
- 12 setup.* i18n keys added to all 10 locales
- Integration test for node:start fallback logic

Re-serve decrypted fMP4 video over HTTP on the LAN so a Chromecast can
play the stream. The relay runs in the Electron main process — same trust
boundary as downloads and MSE playback.
- cast-relay.js: HTTP server with BoxAccumulator (reassembles WebRTC
chunks into moof+mdat pairs), ring buffer, backpressure, finish() for
clean end-of-stream, fixed port range 19550-19553
- cast-chromecast.js: mDNS discovery (bonjour-service) + CASTV2 protocol
(castv2-client), connect/reload/disconnect lifecycle
- Seek-aware: relay restarts on every seek, Chromecast reloads new URL;
generation counter prevents stale async errors from killing active
restarts; landingPlayheadRef suppresses programmatic seeking events
- Device picker in video top bar with scan, device selection, copy-URL
fallback, and cast status indicator
- IPC bridge (main/preload/platform) for start/push/stop/finish/status/
discover/chromecastConnect/chromecastReload/chromecastDisconnect
- Phase 3 design doc for DLNA/Smart TV in docs/cast-smart-tv.md

Create Group wizard (Electron-only) consolidates 6 steps across 4 interfaces
into a single multi-step page: group creation on hub, node attachment, root
selection via folder picker, GEK initialization, and auto-pairing — all in one
flow. Browser SPA keeps its current behavior unchanged.
Public group support (Option A — GEK for all groups):
- All groups have GEK regardless of visibility; open-join groups auto-admit
via TOFU when join_policy is "open"
- Key rotation blocked for public groups (API guard + UI hidden)
- Hub signaling allows WebRTC offers for nodes hosting open-join groups even
when the caller isn't a member yet
- attach_group writes join_policy to node.toml
- Daemon loads GEK for all groups, not just private ones
- Known-device path in join_request now auto-admits to open-join groups
Node loopback API bridge (Electron IPC):
- node:detect, node:call, node:pairing-code IPC handlers in main process
- Renderer never sees tokens, paths, or keys (session token = physical access)
- platform.js node namespace for UI consumption
- Loopback endpoints: roots CRUD, member-upload toggle, reload
Bug fixes:
- Root change detection: removed premature ctx["roots"] updates from add_root
and remove_root that prevented indexer retarget on reload
- Duplicate offline message: global fallback now gated on !group
- Signaling membership check: fallback to open-join groups for non-members
Sidebar groups sorted by last_activity_at (most recent first):
- New Group.last_activity_at column with Alembic migration
- POST /v1/groups/{id}/activity endpoint, called on connect and chat send
- Client-side sort + throttled hub updates (1/min)

Node admin panel (NodePage) now covers every CLI operation over MNP:
group attach/detach, roster, member unpin, GEK rotate, denylist, reload.
Daemon hot-loads new groups and tears down removed ones on config reload
instead of requiring a full restart. Group attach/detach via MNP or
local API triggers an automatic reload so the group is live immediately.
Fixed GroupPage hang on first visit to a newly created group: the JWT
issued at login didn't include the new group, the node rejected with
not_a_member, and the token-refresh path returned without re-triggering
the connect effect (Boolean(token) didn't change). Now bumps retryKey
after a successful refresh so the effect re-runs with the fresh token.
NodePage marks groups hosted by the node but absent from the hub with a
"not on hub" badge so stale groups are visible and easy to remove.

- Download button feedback in FilePreview (spinner, auto-reset)
- Group mute toggle persists across navigation
- Login page autofocus, chat refocus after send
- Theme toggle closes menu, status badge and duplicate connecting removed

**Downloads were going through RAM.** `_openDownloadTarget` tries a granted
folder, then a service worker, then its floor: collect the whole file in the
page and hand the browser a blob. Both of the first two are absent in the
desktop application — `showDirectoryPicker` does not exist, and Chromium refuses
a service worker on a custom scheme — so every download under 512 MB took the
floor. A gigabyte of film meant a gigabyte of RAM, and the only visible symptom
was a Save As dialog at the *end* rather than the start, which is what the
operator noticed and asked about.
The main process now streams to disk: it honours "save automatically" with a
folder chosen once and no dialog, never overwrites (a colliding name gets a
suffix), awaits each write so the renderer cannot outrun the disk and queue the
file in memory anyway, and unlinks a cancelled download rather than leaving a
truncated file that looks complete to whoever opens it next. Settings now offers
the native folder picker instead of saying downloads are unsupported.
Measured in the running application: the file on disk grows 256 KB → 512 KB →
768 KB → 1 MB as the chunks arrive, and an aborted download leaves nothing
behind.
**A permanent scrollbar on sign-in.** `.layout` and `.page-center` each reserved
`100vh - 52px`, and `.page-center` sits inside `main`'s 24px vertical padding —
so the page overflowed by exactly 48px at every window size. Found by measuring
in the app rather than reading the stylesheet: `scrollHeight` 819 against a 771
viewport, then the bottom edge of every element. The centring page brings its
own padding, so main's is dropped for it and the duplicated arithmetic goes
rather than growing a third term. Now `scrollHeight == innerHeight`, no
overflowing elements.
**The first-run screen was unstyled.** It used a class name I invented
(`auth-page`) that appears nowhere in the stylesheet, so it had no card and the
button sat against the input. It now uses the same `page-center` + `login-card`
markup as sign-in, which is where the 12px gap comes from. The sign-in link in
the nav is hidden until a hub is chosen — it led to a page that could not work.
809 tests pass.

D4. The passphrase stays the account's credential and its only recovery path;
what changes is that it is not asked for on every launch.
**The renderer never holds the device key.** It is generated, stored and used
entirely in the main process, which signs `meshbay:user_auth:<username>:<ts>` on
request. Same rule as the save dialog, for the same reason: the renderer is the
part of this application that parses decrypted content from nodes, which is
attacker-controlled input. And this key is *not* a per-node identity key — those
are generated per node and never leave that relationship, so nothing here
correlates a person across operators.
First run asks which hub, with no default. A client that picks its own hub is a
client that can be pointed at one, and the address is the whole of what this
application trusts a hub for — the interface comes from the package.
Verified against a hub running this code, not against the deployed one:
register 201 → passphrase login 200 → device register 201 → **device sign-in 200
with a real session** → `/v1/users/me` 200 → a stranger's key 401. The
signature was also checked directly against the hub's own Python verifier before
any of that.
Inside the running application, over the debugging protocol: the bridge reaches
the main process, the renderer calls the hub **through it** (200 — the CORS fix
working end to end), and a call to a host that is not the configured hub is
refused.
**Not verified:** safeStorage persisting the key. This session has no secret
service, and standing one up in xvfb did not succeed. The application behaves
correctly there — it *refuses* rather than storing unprotected, and now says so
in Settings, which is a real case rather than a hypothetical one since it is
exactly what a headless or minimal desktop looks like.
Worth remembering for next time: meshbay.org runs whatever was last deployed. It
answered 405 on the Stage-C endpoints and reported MNP 0.2 while the tree had
0.3, so a local `uvicorn meshbay_hub.app:create_app --factory` on SQLite is what
tests hub changes. Nothing was deployed to production for this.
799 tests pass; e2e.py passes end to end.

Electron 42 / Chromium 148, launched under xvfb. The packaged interface mounts
over `app://` with a secure context, `crypto.subtle` present, Argon2 WASM
loaded, and no console errors. Three statements in the design were wrong, and
only launching it found them.
**A CSP in a `<meta>` tag silently drops `frame-ancestors`.** Chromium says so
in the console. A policy carrying a directive that does nothing is worse than
one without it, so the policy is sent as a header by the protocol handler —
which is also the only thing serving the interface, so one source instead of
two.
**`secure: true` is not what makes the service worker register.** Chromium
refuses a worker on a custom scheme whatever its privileges: "The URL protocol
of the current origin ('app://meshbay') is not supported". The application has
no service worker and needs none — it saves through a native dialog, which is
the better of the two paths. `sw.js` stays in the package because the same files
serve the browser, where it is one of only three ways to write a large file.
What `secure: true` is actually for was measured at the same time: without it
**the whole of `crypto.subtle` is undefined**. The first probe loaded a `data:`
URL and every algorithm failed with TypeError, AES-GCM included — which is why
the probe was rewritten before believing its answer. X25519 and Ed25519 are both
present on Chromium 148, settling the version floor left open as O6.
**The renderer cannot call the hub.** Its origin is `app://meshbay` and CORS
refuses it. The hub has *no CORS middleware at all* — its API is reachable from
no web origin whatever — and that is worth keeping. Widening it for
`app://meshbay` would be worse than it looks: that origin is not a credential,
since any Electron application can claim the same scheme and host name.
So every hub call leaves from the main process, exactly as saving a file does,
and it refuses any origin that is not the hub the user signed in to.
`platform.apiFetch()` is `fetch` in a browser and the bridge in the application,
so no caller has to know which it got. `transport.js` reaches it through a
global because it is a classic script, not a module — the alternative was a
second fetch path, which is how two callers of one hub start disagreeing about
how to reach it.
Verified from inside Electron: the main process gets 200 from
/v1/hub/version, the renderer is refused by CORS, and **a script served by the
hub is refused by the policy** — T3's mitigation demonstrated rather than
asserted.
Build note, written into the README because it will bite the next person:
**Ubuntu 24.04's nodejs 18 cannot install Electron at all** — the download
script `require()`s an ESM module, which Node gained in 22. Node 24 LTS,
checksum-verified against nodejs.org, is what this was built with.
package-lock.json is committed; builds use `npm ci`, not `npm install`.
799 tests pass, e2e.py still passes end to end. The session harness needed a
platform stub: it lifts `hubFetch` out of app.js as text and runs it, so the
adapter is now part of the environment it models.

Stage D, and the honest half of it.
D1 — the seam (done, and verified)
----------------------------------
`static/platform.js`. `HUB` becomes `platform.hubBase()` and the transport is
built with the same base, so one address has one source. In a browser it returns
'' and every path stays relative to the origin that served the page — the
acceptance criterion for this split was "the browser SPA behaves identically",
and it does. `platform.js` joins `_ASSETS`, or a change to it would not move the
content hash and a cached browser would never ask for it.
D2 — the shell (written, never launched)
-----------------------------------------
**There is no npm on this machine. Electron was never installed and
`packages/meshbay-client/` has not been run once.** That is stated here rather
than discovered later.
What is there: a main process serving the packaged interface over a privileged
`app://` scheme (`secure` and `standard` are not cosmetic — without them the
service worker refuses to register and streamed downloads break silently), a
preload exposing an enumerated bridge that never passes a filesystem path, a
window with `sandbox`, `contextIsolation` and no node integration, navigation
away from the package refused, and a CSP where the hub is reachable over
connect-src and is not a script source. The hub address arrives as a process
argument because `platform.hubBase()` runs before anything can await.
`test_desktop_shell.py` pins each of those by reading the source — the treatment
`test_downloads.py` already gives the three browser save paths. It catches a
property being removed and proves nothing about the application running. Two
were checked by breaking them.
The interface is *copied* into the package by `build/sync-ui.js` from the hub's
static directory, and `ui/` is gitignored: a silent fork is the only real way to
end up maintaining the interface twice.
D3 — partial
------------
The bridge, and the part worth having now: safeStorage's backend is reported
rather than assumed. On Linux it falls back to a fixed key when no keyring is
running, silently — someone who believes the OS is holding their keys is told
when it is not. The native key lifecycle belongs with D4 and needs a running
application to mean anything.
D8 — partial, and a real defect found
--------------------------------------
`meshbay-node.spec` installed the SYSTEM template — the one carrying `User=%i` —
into `%{_userunitdir}`. A user unit already runs as its owner and cannot carry
`User=`; systemd refuses the file, so the packaged unit could never have
started. Nothing noticed because nobody had built and installed the RPM.
Two units now: the template to `%{_unitdir}`, and a new `meshbay-node-user.service`
that a person enables themselves without a password — which is what lets the
desktop client install a node without asking for one. It carries ExecReload, so
`meshbay-node reload` does not have to stop a service somebody is streaming from,
and documents the drop-in for a drive outside the home, RequiresMountsFor
included.
798 tests pass; e2e.py still passes end to end. Nothing here was built or
launched: no npm, no rpmbuild.
