Stage 8 of ~/next/improve-downloads.md, second half, plus the gap it exposed in
stage 7.
**Asking where to resume.** The node identifies an upload by (member,
directory, filename), so a client resuming one has to name the file — and
`transfer_open`, the obvious place to ask, travels in clear. Naming it there
would undo exactly what sealing this path bought in MNP 2.0: before it, the same
file was ciphertext leaving a node and plaintext arriving at one. So the
question is asked inside the seal that already exists, as an ordinary
`file_upload` with no bytes and `chunk_index: -1`. The node writes nothing,
creates no state, reserves no name, and answers with `resume_from` in the sealed
ack. A node that predates it refuses the index, which the client reads as "start
from the beginning" — the behaviour it had anyway — and the wait is bounded so
one that answers neither does not strand an upload.
The probe is answered after every check the write path makes, so it cannot ask
questions about a directory the caller may not write to, and it answers only
about the member who asks: otherwise one member could measure another's
progress on a file they never sent, and worse, resume it.
**Pausing an upload.** Reported: no pause button on an upload, even in the
desktop app. Stage 7 built pause around the download path — a target declares
whether it can be stopped — and an upload has no local target to ask. It was
also refused by design, since a transfer handed a lease it cannot re-create must
not be offered a button that would drop its slot for good. Uploads now ask for
their slot rather than being handed one, and say they are pausable outright: a
File is seekable and the node keeps the position. Resuming re-probes rather than
trusting the client's own memory, so it works across a reconnect too.
**And the slot they hold.** `_do_file_upload` never called `slots.touch(tr)`.
Chunks are not gated by the lease, so the file arrived — but the node reclaimed
a grant nobody appeared to be using after thirty seconds, twice, then abandoned
it, and the widget follows the lease. Measured from the journal: a 3.5 GB upload
read "waiting, 0 ahead" for a minute and a half while it was transferring. The
download twin of this was fixed on 2026-09-08; the same omission was still here,
invisible until uploads took a real lease.
`test_the_upload_itself_is_sealed` now checks every message `uploadFile` sends
rather than the first. Adding the probe put a second one in front of the one it
was written for, and it would have kept passing while guarding nothing.
Node suite 1202 passed, hub suite 850 passed.

Step 3 of ~/next/improve-downloads.md. Step 2 built the pools with constants;
this gives them to the operator, in the two scopes they belong to.
**The pools are the machine's.** `[node] max_concurrent_downloads` and
`max_concurrent_uploads`, default 8, on the §2.11 pattern: node.toml for a
fresh install, a roster.db override for immediate effect, editable from the
Node page and from `meshbay-node transfers show|set`, applied live through the
one `set_capacity` step 1 fixed.
**The per-member cap is a group's.** How many transfers one member may run at
once here — on the node like every other group setting (not the hub, which
would have authority over someone else's disk; not node.toml, which is
hand-written and needs a restart), changed by a signed operator instruction
(`OP_TRANSFER_LIMITS`, subject "d=2,u=2" so what is signed names the outcome),
broadcast to the group, and read live by the pools.
That was the one thing step 2's shape could not express: `per_member` was a
single node-wide number. `group_limits` and `member_cap(kind, member)` make it
a lookup — the group's own value if it has one, the node's default otherwise —
and it is deliberately the only dimension that is not node-wide.
Three refusals, each with a test:
- **absent means the default (2), never "unlimited".** A group that predates
the setting coming back unlimited would leave the node-wide pool as the only
control, which is the situation slots exist to end;
- **zero is not "unlimited"**, and is not "this member may not transfer"
either: the floor is one everywhere, and the CLI says to revoke the member
instead;
- **an unreadable row reads as unset**, not as zero — the same discipline the
sealed messages follow, where a payload that does not open must never become
a default state on its own.
`handshake_ack` carries this member's own caps for this group, so the interface
can say "2 of your 2 slots are busy" instead of drawing a bare spinner. Absent
reads as "no limit known" and the hint is not drawn — never as "unlimited",
which would have the interface contradicting the node.
1164 node, 793 hub, 0 failed.

Step 2 of ~/next/improve-downloads.md. A download is invisible to the node: it
is a series of independent `file_req` messages, with nothing saying one started
or ended, so there is nothing to count and nothing to cap. The lease is that
missing object.
`meshbay_node/transfers.py` holds the decisions and has no asyncio and no
transport in it, on purpose. The failure modes this has to survive — a slot the
node never gets back, a client waiting on a grant the node has forgotten — are
races through a DataChannel and unprovable there; here the clock is a parameter
and every method returns what changed, so the caller does the I/O and the tests
drive the worst case directly.
What it decides:
- two pools, downloads and uploads, separate from the stream pool: different
resources with different costs, and merging them makes both caps meaningless;
- per-member cap checked *before* the node-wide one, so a member at their own
limit queues behind their own transfers rather than holding a slot a second
member has none of. Per account across their devices, or the cap becomes a
function of how many tabs somebody opens;
- a queue that skips a member at their cap instead of waiting for them —
granting strictly in arrival order lets one member's limit stall everyone;
- `tr` drawn by the client and idempotent, which is what makes a reconnect safe;
- bounded per member, because unbounded queues are how a node runs out of
memory politely.
Every way a slot comes back, with the session teardown as the one that matters
(a closed tab, a quit browser and a dead network all arrive at
`shutdown_tasks`, and none of them needs a timer): explicit close, session
gone, a grant nobody took up in 30 s passed to the next in line, and a granted
transfer silent for 120 s reclaimed with its peer told, so a widget can offer a
resume rather than sit on a lie.
`GET /api/transfers` is the operator's window: when somebody reports a transfer
stuck at waiting, it is the only thing that says whether the node ever had them
in a queue — a log cannot, when the symptom is that nothing is happening. It
carries no filename and no path, which a test pins, because this is exactly
where one would be tempting.
Three things found while writing it, two of them mine:
- the randomised property test rejected `in_use <= cap` at once, and it was
right to: lowering a cap never interrupts a running transfer, so the count
legitimately sits above the new value. The invariant is that a *new* grant
never happens past the cap;
- the sweeper was started with `self._spawn`, which ties a task to one
session's set. It died with whichever peer opened the first transfer, and
every other peer's abandoned lease then stopped being reclaimed — a node that
fills up over days with nothing in the log. It belongs to the node now, with
its strong reference on the transport context;
- the pools are node-wide while `_peer_registry` is per group (finding H1), so
a slot freed in one group can grant one in another and the peer to notify is
not in the notifier's registry. Silently wrong in the first version.
Nothing enforces a lease yet: `file_req` is untouched, no client asks, and the
node grants everything. That is step 4's flag day, and this lands alone.
1148 node, 793 hub, 0 failed.

Chat messages have been signed by the sending device since MNP 2.0, but a
reader had no way to know that the device belonged to the account the node
named: the signature proved *a device*, and `sender_id` was still the node's
word. This closes that for any account a client has already seen.
**What was blocking it was not effort — the evidence was not being kept.**
`_do_device_add` verified the countersignature that admits a second device and
stored only `added_by_pk`: *which* key approved, never the proof. And
`device_add_transcript` binds `nonce_node`, the approving connection's handshake
nonce, so even a stored signature was unverifiable by anyone who had not been on
that connection. `identities` gains `add_sig`, `add_nonce` and `add_ts`, added
before the migration's early return — which fires on every roster widened since
2026-08-18, i.e. all of them, so putting them inside it would have meant they
never arrived.
`group_roster_req`/`resp` relays, sealed under a new groupbox purpose and
answered to **any member of the group**, every live device of every active
member with the evidence that admitted it. The node decides nothing: it hands
over evidence and the client walks the chain from each account's root outwards
(`_verifyRoster`). That is deliberate — the node is the party the property holds
against, so it is not asked to assert trust.
Two holes the tests caught while this was being built:
- "no signature" was being treated as a trust root, so a node that writes the
roster could put any key in an account's row and have it laundered straight
into the verified set. A root is a device that names **no** countersigner.
- pinning only the verified subset at first sight raised "key changed" on
legitimate second devices whose countersignature predates this change. First
sight pins everything the node says, because that is what trust-on-first-use
means and an alarm that fires on normal events stops being read.
The property, and it must not be rounded up: **once a client has seen an
account, a node that later substitutes a key for it is detected. Nothing is
gained at first sight**, where there is nothing to compare against — the same
boundary `per-node-identity-v1.md` draws, unmoved.
The cost, stated because it is real: the roster is member-visible, so every
member learns how many devices the others hold and their public keys. It stays
inside the group, the hub is not involved, and it is scoped per group. A member
who cannot see the keys cannot check them.
User-visible surface: one notice, "this account is using a key you have not seen
before", in ten languages. Nothing else.
16 tests — 7 on the node (the evidence is stored, it verifies from the roster
alone, a fabricated device carries none, another group's members are not
disclosed), 9 running the shipped `_verifyRoster` under node against rosters
built by the shipped Python: a chain of three in any order, a signature by the
wrong key, one for another node, one for another account, and two fabricated
devices signing each other admitting nothing.
Tier 3 (operator-signed roster attestation) stays deferred, with nothing
depending on it.

`chatbox.py` said per-device subkey derivation means "two devices never share
an AES key". That is false in the deployment that exists, and stating it hid
the reason the design is actually safe.
Two clients of one account on one node normally hold the **same** identity key:
a second browser fetches the keypair bundle from the node and recovers the
existing key rather than minting a new one, and so does a fresh Electron
install. Device linking — a distinct key, countersigned — is the exception, not
the rule, which is why nobody is ever asked to pin anything when they open a
second browser. So two clients routinely share a device key and therefore its
chat subkey.
What makes that safe is the nonce, not the derivation: 96 random bits, never a
counter. Two independent senders under one key collide only on the birthday
bound, unreachable at chat volume; two independent senders advancing one
*counter* collide immediately, which is precisely what C1 and §15.0b are about.
The true property is "no mutable sending state at all" — the hazard removed
rather than partitioned — and the design therefore degrades correctly into the
deployment as it is, where a chain-based one would have failed silently on the
day someone opened a second tab.

Both sides landed a breaking MNP change and both called it 2.0, which is right:
the sealed upload, the removal of `stream_seg` and mandatory chat encryption
share one flag day. They are recorded as one version in `__init__.py` rather
than as a race between two.
The resolutions that were decisions rather than mechanics:
* **`MNP_MIN_SUPPORTED` moves to "2.0".** The sealed upload alone was a
*confined* break — a 1.x peer could still connect, browse, download, stream
and chat, with only its uploads refused by `upload_not_sealed` — so the floor
deliberately stayed at "1.0". Mandatory chat encryption ends that
confinement: a 1.x peer can neither produce a sealed chat message nor read
one, so it would connect, look fine, and be unable to say anything. Refusing
it at the handshake is the honest form. The per-message `upload_not_sealed`
path is untouched and still right if the floor is ever lowered.
* **`sendChat` throws on an `error` reply**, from origin, applied to the sealed
send. It matters more after this change, not less: the node now refuses a
stale epoch, a malformed envelope and a device claim that is not the
connection's own, so there are three new ways for a message to be rejected
and none of them may look like a message that was sent.
* **`req_id` supersedes the per-type routing** this branch added for
`chat_keys_resp` and `device_hello_ack`. Both blocks are kept beside the
existing `chat_hist_resp` one, for the same stated reason — a node too old to
stamp — and their comments no longer claim to be the mechanism that closes
the class. `req_id` is.
* **`chat_send_probe.py` is rebuilt on origin's structure**, not beside it: two
scenarios, a stub that stamps `req_id`, `music_meta_req` as the older pending
request. The encrypted path is layered on — a real Ed25519 device key
generated in the page, and a `chat_keys_resp` sealed by the shipped Python,
because a payload the page built itself would prove only that the page agrees
with the page.
* **`test_reply_correlation.py` now sends a sealed message.** Its subject is
which of the two messages leaving that handler carries the id; plaintext chat
was only the fixture, and the node refuses one now.
* `groupbox` keeps both new purposes (`upload`, `chat_keys`); `protocol.py`
keeps origin's removal of `STREAM_SEGMENT` and this branch's correction of
the "Double Ratchet message" comment on `CHAT_MESSAGE`, which was wrong when
it was written and is wrong differently now.
Full suite on the merged tree: 1993 passed, 11 failed — the same 11 that fail
on a pristine checkout (2 Windows service tests, 1 apps-enabled policy, 7
transcode tests that pass in isolation, and the WebRTC invite test that hangs
on its own).

Downloads have been encrypted under a GEK-derived key since the beginning:
`file_chunk` and `stream_data` both go through `chunk_ciphertext`. Uploads
never were. `file_upload` carried the filename and the raw bytes in plain
msgpack, and `file_upload_ack` carried the name the node stored them under —
so the same file was ciphertext leaving a node and plaintext arriving at one.
There was no threat model behind that asymmetry.
Both halves now travel sealed under a third groupbox purpose,
HKDF(GEK, info="meshbay:upload:v1"). The filename, the destination folder and
the bytes are all inside the seal; only `upload_id` and `chunk_index` stay in
clear, because the node routes and orders on them before it can decrypt. This
direction seals *towards* the node — it holds the GEK for its own group — and
it opens the payload before it picks a destination or touches the disk.
What that forced, and why none of it is optional:
- `filename` was the correlation key on both sides. It cannot be: matching an
ack to its request by name would hand back exactly what the seal hides.
`upload_id` replaces it — client-drawn, opaque to the node, unique within a
connection, never an authorization input. The property it guarded (one
refusal fails one upload, not every upload in flight) is unchanged.
- Refusals can no longer quote what they refused. `No directory named 'X'`
becomes `No such directory in this group` plus the `code` that was already
there; the client knows what it sent.
- No plaintext fallback. A path that still accepts plaintext is not a sealed
path, so an unsealed `file_upload` is refused with `upload_not_sealed`.
Hardened while here, because what comes out of a seal is authenticated but not
validated — a member can seal anything: `filename` and `data` have their types
checked before any upload state is created, and `chunk_index`/`total_chunks`,
which are outside the seal by necessity, can no longer raise where a refusal
was meant.
Tests. `test_upload_sealed.py` pins the node half: nothing identifying on the
wire, tamper/wrong-key/wrong-group all refused with nothing written, and
multi-chunk reassembly unchanged. `test_upload_seal_client.py` drives the
shipped `uploadFile` over the shipped `crypto.js` under node and feeds its real
frames to the real `_do_file_upload` — the file lands intact, and the ack the
node actually produced comes back with the name it chose for a collision, which
is the half a source-reading test cannot see. Both upload purposes join the
JS/Python groupbox parity vectors.
BREAKING CHANGE: MNP 2.0. `file_upload`/`file_upload_ack` change shape on the
wire every deployed client speaks, which is MAJOR by the same rule 1.0 was —
but the break is confined to uploads. `MNP_MIN_SUPPORTED` stays at "1.0", so a
1.x peer still connects, browses, downloads, streams and chats; only its
uploads are refused, with a message saying which side is old. The client checks
the node's version before sending a chunk, so neither side meets this as a
timeout. This is the version negotiation shipped in 1.0 earning its keep: 1.0
cost a flag day, 2.0 costs a refusal code.

`stream_seg` answered with an MPEG-TS segment as base64 with no encryption at
all — the one message on the content plane that never went through a
GEK-derived key. Live on both transports, answering any authenticated member.
It predates `stream_data`, which does the same job properly (`chunk_ciphertext`,
keyed per segment, AES-256-GCM) and has since Phase 12. Its only browser caller,
`fetchStreamSegment`, was defined and never once invoked — a plaintext media
endpoint with no client. Removed rather than repaired.
Gone with it: `_extract_segment` and the ffmpeg semaphore in quic_server, the
`fetch_stream_segment` QUIC client method, and `_b64decode` in transport.js,
which had no other caller.
The H6 regression test lived on this handler — it pinned `_do_stream_segment_async`
to a coroutine so `subprocess.run` could not stall the event loop for thirty
seconds per request. It is replaced by the property that outlives the handler:
no transport carries media outside an AEAD, asserted on `stream_seg` and
`data_b64` across all three transport modules. The half of H6 that survives —
the live streaming path still spawns ffmpeg — keeps its own test.
BREAKING CHANGE: `stream_seg` is no longer answered on either transport. No
shipping client sends it. Recorded as part of MNP 2.0, whose other half — the
sealed upload — carries the version bump.

MNP carried no correlation id. A reply named its own type and nothing
else, so a client with more than one request in flight worked out which
one a message answered from the message itself — and for the replies
that name nothing it could not. `_dispatch` fell through to matching by
arrival order, which is a guess. `_sendAndWait` had the right value all
along: it keys `_pending` by `this._seqId++` and never put it on the
wire.
The guess fails asymmetrically, which is why it hid. The victim is not
the request that was answered wrongly — it is the unrelated one that now
waits out its own 30s timeout for a reply already delivered elsewhere.
Live on 2026-09-06: five `music_meta_req` sat pending for over 100
seconds behind a failing MusicBrainz, and a `device_list_result` was
handed to one of them. The composer is disabled while a send is in
flight, so a chat message whose reply went astray the same way left the
Chat tab looking frozen for thirty seconds, then unfroze on its own.
The `ack` half of this was fixed on 2026-08-30 by matching on request
type. That closed the instance and left the class open: a refusal has no
type to match on either, and `_dispatch_message`'s catch-all answers
every unforeseen failure with `{"type": "error", "detail": "Request
failed"}` — 238 of this module's 240 error sends name nothing at all.
`req_id` now rides on the request and comes back on the reply. On the
node it is published for the whole handler in a ContextVar and stamped
by `_send`: a parameter would have meant threading an argument through
all 240 send sites, and asyncio copies the context into a task, so a
handler that `_spawn`s its real work still answers under the right id.
It is never stamped on a broadcast — those answer nothing, and the
owner check in `_send` is what keeps a chat broadcast or an index push
from reaching another peer looking like a reply.
On the client, `_dispatch` resolves on `req_id` first and the
arrival-order fallback is gone the moment a node proves it stamps
(`_correlates`, armed by the handshake's own reply). The fallback stays
for an MNP 1.0 node, unchanged and no wider: there it is the only thing
there is, and removing it would leave device_list_result, join_result
and the handshake replies reaching nobody.
Two things fall out. `sendChat` refuses an `error` reply like every
other request in the file — it returned it as success, which did not
matter while a refusal reached the wrong caller anyway and would now
show a rejected message as sent. And `_group_ctx` uses `.get`: a reload
pops a removed group while sessions connected to it are open, and every
request they had left raised KeyError into that same catch-all.
Sealed index messages are the one exception to the fast path. They
cannot be handed over until they are opened, which is asynchronous while
`_dispatch` is not — resolving on the id alone gave `fetchIndex` the
envelope and skipped `onIndexSync` entirely. Caught by extending
`index_seal_probe.mjs` to stamp a reply the way a current node does,
after the hub suite passed over it: the probe built its own frames and
had never seen one.
Tests, all failing before and passing after: `test_chat_send.py` drives
the real ChatPanel over the real transport for both shapes of reply with
an older request pending (3 of its 6 are new, and the 3 for `ack` pass
either way, so it discriminates); `test_reply_correlation.py` pins the
node's half — the refusals that name nothing else, the broadcast that
must not be stamped, and a late reply from a spawned task answering
under its own id rather than the most recent request's.
Full suite: 1897 passed, same 11 pre-existing failures as before.
QUIC keeps its own dispatch and is not stamped. It is disabled by
default and no browser request reaches it, but the asymmetry is real.

Chat messages are sealed with AES-256-GCM under a key derived per group, per
epoch, per *device*, and signed over the ciphertext with the device key the
node pinned. The node relays and archives; it cannot read a message.
There is no switch. MNP goes to 2.0 and MNP_MIN_SUPPORTED moves with it, so a
1.x peer is refused at the handshake with `version_too_old` rather than
admitted and then unable to speak. An opt-in flag was designed and rejected:
every node is a test node, so it would have bought nothing and left a plaintext
branch reachable — C6's lesson one feature later. A test reads the source and
refuses any code that consults a `chat_encrypted` setting.
Not Sender Keys, and `senderkeys.py` is now documented as unused. With
distribution under the group key and a node that serves history to devices
which were not present, the node must retain each chain's earliest key, and a
chain key at iteration i yields every message key from i on by pure HKDF —
forward secrecy is zero either way. What the ratchet was left buying was
stateful client code with silent failure modes, three of them reproduced: any
member could sign as any other, a second device dropped the first's chain, and
the skipped-key cache grew without bound. The reasoning is in
docs/chat-sender-keys.md, which is the specification and the decision record.
Epochs, not rotation: the epoch key is wrapped under the group key at delivery
and never stored under it, so `gek_rotate` is a re-wrap. A group-key-derived
archive key would have made every message ever sent unreadable on the first
`member unpin`, which is the documented step after removing a member. A new
epoch opens on member revoke/unpin, device revoke and `gek_rotate`; old epochs
are kept and still delivered, so history stays readable to everyone who could
already read it, and nothing anywhere deletes one.
Three prerequisites this needed, each a live defect on its own:
* The peer registry was keyed by user_id, so one account's second device
evicted the first and the broadcast skipped recipients by account — a
person's phone never saw what they typed on their laptop.
* The handshake authenticated an account, never a device. `device_hello`
(additive, signed, refused unless the key is a live device of this account in
the node's own roster) is what lets the node refuse a member claiming
somebody else's key.
* `_admin_exec_file_delete` authorized against the exact uploading key, so
device linking had already broken deleting your own file from your other
device. It now authorizes against any non-revoked device of `uploader_id`.
Found by driving the real panel over the real transport, not by reading source:
`chat_keys_resp` was routed by arrival order and handed to an unanswered
`media_meta_req` — the original frozen-tab defect in a message type that did
not exist when that probe was written. And `_asText` had been deleted with an
unrelated helper beside it; its only caller sits inside a promise the panel
catches, so every conversation rendered empty with nothing in the console.
Existing node data is migrated by QE/migration/migrate_chat_encryption.py
(not versioned, per the QE rule), run with the node stopped.

`video_root` (a string), `audio_root` (a string) and `photo_roots` (a list)
said the same thing three ways: three roster accessors, three ops, three MNP
messages, three admin-op subjects. They become `set_app_directories(app_key,
paths)` and its single-directory wrapper, stored under `<app>_directories` and
keyed by the app's registry name — so an application can be added without
touching this layer, which is the whole claim of the plugin architecture.
The three old names still work. Their MNP messages are handled, and the roster
falls back to the old key when the new one is unset, so a node upgraded into
this keeps working with no migration step — the plan called for a script, and
a script nobody runs on the machine where it matters is worse than a fallback.
Two things are new rather than moved:
The paths are validated. The setters this replaces accepted anything, so a
typo — or a path left behind when a root was removed — was stored happily and
then matched no entry, leaving an app showing an empty tab with nothing to
distinguish "misconfigured" from "no files yet". Deliberately not
`RootSet.resolve()`: that also refuses a currently-unavailable root, and an
operator must be able to point an app at a library on a drive they ejected.
The legacy scalar is derived, never stored. `video_root` still rides on the
handshake ack for MNP 1.0 clients; kept as a second stored value it would
drift from the list within one run, which reads as "it works after a restart".
Also here: chat's own two settings (a directory, which must be on a read-write
root because it is a destination rather than a view, and a link-preview switch
gating the unfurl path — checked before the cache, or turning it off would
still serve every preview already fetched), the `app_directories`,
`chat_directory` and `chat_link_preview` MNP messages, the plural
`<app>_directories` on the handshake ack, and `music` as the app's one
identifier where storage said `audio` and the registry said `music`.
The Music enricher now resolves a boundary per configured directory rather
than one for the group: with several, a single boundary is wrong for all but
one of them, and for Music that is the difference between reading a folder as
an artist and reading it as a release.
Suite: 11 failures, all pre-existing.

Replace the upload boolean with per-root writable/removable/ejected flags.
Backend: new ops (update_root, eject_root, plug_root), MNP 1.1 protocol
messages, live RootSet updates so API always reflects current state, CLI
root subcommand (add/remove/set/list/eject/plug).
Frontend: SharedDirectoriesTable with optimistic toggle switches, eject/plug
in Files and Settings, upload gated on root.writable, ejected-root filtering
in all media apps, updated Create Group wizard, 10-locale i18n.

Files above 40 MB are no longer read in full. Instead, blake3 hashes
45 MB of samples (first 20 MB + last 20 MB + 5 MB at 50% offset).
Files at or below 40 MB are unchanged (full read, hash_version 1).
A new `hash_version` field on IndexEntry (default 1) travels on the
wire and through the cache so both versions coexist without breaking
existing nodes or clients.
The IndexCache auto-migrates its schema on open (ALTER TABLE), so no
manual step is required on upgrade. A standalone migration script is
available in QE/migration/ for operators who want to preview or force
a full re-hash.

A client whose clock is a little fast could not connect at all: the MNP
handshake verified the hub-issued token with no leeway, so a token whose
`iat` was a few seconds ahead of the node's clock failed with "the token
is not yet valid (iat)". Seen against a freshly-resumed VM guest.
`meshbay_common.handshake.JWT_LEEWAY_SECONDS = 60` is the shared value;
applied to the handshake, the node's own hub-token decode, revocation-token
verification, and the hub's access-token decode. 60s absorbs NTP-level skew
without meaningfully widening the window on a stolen token (they already
carry a jti and an exp).

`index_sync`, `index_delta` and the `handshake_ack` config payload now travel
sealed under a GEK-derived subkey (`meshbay_common/groupbox.py`, mirrored by
`sealGroup`/`openGroup` in `crypto.js`). Only `type`, `v`, `group_id` and the
ack's `node_pk`/`proof`/`sig` stay in clear — a receiver must route and
authenticate before it would trust a decryption. Verify, then decrypt.
The ack line is integrity, not confidentiality: the signed handshake transcript
names no ack field, so `is_node_admin`, `enabled_apps`, `video_root` and the
rest were authenticated by the DTLS channel alone. The index line is defence in
depth against a repeat of C1/C6 — a peer served before the handshake completes
now gets ciphertext, not filenames. Nothing against an observer, the hub, or a
member; that is the whole claim. `index_progress` stays clear (D3, counters
only). Chat is out of scope.
Failure is fatal: a payload that does not open ends the session naming the
message type — never an empty index or an empty `enabled_apps`, both of which
are legitimate states.
Version negotiation ships here too (phase 15.6, brought forward): `v` + `v_min`
on `handshake` and `handshake_challenge`, refused with `version_too_old` /
`version_too_new` / `version_unreadable`. The flag day was already being paid
for; the next breaking change now costs a refusal message.
BREAKING CHANGE: breaks the WebRTC wire every deployed client speaks. Hub and
every node must deploy together; the SPA is served by the hub, so a browser
picks up the new client on reload. See MESHBAY_NODE_PROTOCOL.md §11.1a, §13.1.

`file_chunk` and `index_sync` were each built twice, once per transport, and
the two copies did not agree. WebRTC sent binary, unsigned chunks carrying a
`file_id`; QUIC sent base64 fields, two BLAKE3 hashes, a per-chunk Ed25519
signature and no `file_id`. `index_sync` was plain entries on one transport
and a `GroupIndex.serialize()` envelope on the other. One message type, two
shapes, one consumer each, and nothing that failed when they drifted — finding
C6 one size down, in the two places the handshake unification did not reach.
Phase 9.15 moved WebRTC to the binary format and dropped the per-chunk
signature; the QUIC encoder was never brought along. It is dropped here rather
than reintroduced: the AES-GCM tag authenticates the ciphertext under a
GEK-derived key, and since C3 the node authenticates itself once in the
handshake instead of once per megabyte.
`meshbay_common.protocol` now owns the chunk codec (`chunk_ciphertext`,
`file_chunk_wire`, `file_chunk_plaintext`) and `meshbay_node/transport/wire.py`
the index builder, which also absorbs the delta the daemon used to hand-build.
`test_transport_wire_parity.py` fails if either server grows its own copy back.
`ChunkRequest`/`ChunkResponse` are deleted. `ChunkResponse` described the QUIC
half while reading like the contract for both, which is what made the fork hard
to see at all.
BREAKING CHANGE: MNP 0.15 changes the encoding of `file_chunk` and `index_sync`
on the QUIC transport. The WebRTC shapes are byte for byte unchanged and no
QUIC client ships, which is why this is a MINOR bump; a deployed QUIC peer
would have made it MAJOR.
Also fixes a test fixture that put a `Path` where the daemon puts a `RootSet`.
Nothing caught it: the old QUIC index handler never touched `roots`, and
`entry_abs_path` fell through `Path.resolve(strict=...)`, reading the virtual
path as a truthy flag and returning the right file by accident.

All three packages (common, hub, node) bump 0.9.0 -> 0.10.0 together.
Highlights since v0.9.0: email verification for registration, email
change and invitations; passphrase change and account recovery;
reCAPTCHA v2 on Register and Password Reset; node JSON-only control API
with the Node page absorbing the admin dashboard; WebRTC STUN fallback
fix; assorted hub UI fixes.

The passphrase derives two independent client-side values: auth_key (the
hub verifier) and bundle_key (AES-GCM key for the per-node identity
bundles, which live on nodes and never on the hub). Changing or
recovering a passphrase is therefore two operations — swap the hub
verifier, and re-wrap every reachable node's identity bundle.
Flow A — change a known passphrase (Profile page)
- POST /v1/users/password re-proves the current passphrase, swaps
pw_hash/salt/version, revokes every refresh token and returns a fresh
pair so the tab that made the change stays signed in.
- MeshBayTransport.rewrapAllNodes: for every group's online node, connect
with the old key, read the identity off the handshake, store it back
under the new key. Returns updated / unreachable / failed so the UI can
point at the operator-unpin fallback for the gaps. Always-shown
confirmation dialog listing reachable and unreachable groups.
Recovery key
- keyderive.js generateRecoveryKey (32 random bytes, grouped Base32) and
deriveRecoveryKey (HKDF-SHA256, domain meshbay:recovery:v1:<username>).
- Every per-node identity gets a second copy wrapped under the recovery
key: keypair_bundles.bundle_enc_recovery (node-only column, added in
_SCHEMA_KEYPAIR and via a PRAGMA-guarded ALTER for existing DBs),
carried on keypair_bundle_store / _resp. MNP 0.13 -> 0.14, additive.
- session.recoveryKey is persisted in IndexedDB (slot rk) and lazy-loaded
on connect, so a group joined in any later session still leaves a
recovery copy.
- Shown once at registration; optionally folded into the verification
e-mail as a pass-through the hub never stores or logs, with an opt-out.
- Profile -> Recovery key re-loads R and backfills every reachable node
via rewrapAllNodes in bundleKey mode (no passphrase re-entry).
Flow B — recover a lost passphrase (#/reset, linked from sign-in)
- POST /v1/users/password/reset-request {username, email}: both must be
the pair on file, checked against the blind email_hash (never
decrypted). A mismatch — wrong e-mail, unknown username, non-active
account — takes the identical no-op path (no code, no mail, same 200),
so it reveals nothing and cannot be used to spray reset mail from a
username alone. 5/min, 1-hour single-use code.
- POST /v1/users/password/reset {username, code, new_auth_key}: same
expiry / attempts / single-use checks as e-mail verification; revokes
every session and deletes every registered device key so a stored one
cannot sign back in past the reset.
- ResetPasswordPage: request code -> code + optional recovery key + new
passphrase -> reset + sign-in -> fan-out. connect() falls back to the
recovery-wrapped copy when the passphrase key cannot open bundle_enc.
Without a recovery key: sign-in is restored and each group needs the
operator-unpin fallback.
Supporting fixes (found in live testing)
- member unpin now also deletes the keypair bundle; connect() mints a
fresh identity when handed a bundle it cannot open (unless _rewrapOnly,
set by rewrapAllNodes), so a rejoin completes instead of dead-ending
before the invite-code prompt.
- A browser with no bundle key gets a passphrase prompt on the group page
instead of a "go back to the browser you registered on" message.
- RegisterPage / LoginPage / ResetPasswordPage trim the username so every
key derivation matches the hub's stored form.
Docs: docs/auth-confirm.md. Locale keys across all ten catalogues.
Tests: test_password_change, test_password_reset, test_recovery_email,
test_recovery_key, test_rewrap_fanout, test_bundle_store_recovery, plus
additions to test_admin_ops_mnp and test_webrtc_transport. Hub suite 492
passed; node suite 741 passed (the lone test_packaging_units failure is a
pre-existing RPM-spec flake, reproducible on main).

Expose invite_ttl_hours, pair_ttl_hours, device_request_ttl_minutes,
max_concurrent_streams and transcode_incompatible_video in the Node
management panel. Changes are applied immediately via roster.db and
written back to node.toml so they survive a DB wipe. On startup,
roster overrides take precedence over node.toml defaults.
Draft v6 §2.11 documents the design; MNP gains node_settings_set /
node_settings_set_ack for the browser path.

A one-click alternative to the full "Fix match" search-and-pick flow, and
reachable without SSH (`meshbay-node video rematch` clears a whole group).
- MNP 0.13: tmdb_rematch / tmdb_rematch_ack (additive — an older node
logs "unknown type", the button just does nothing). OP_TMDB_REMATCH,
signed like tmdb_override (media_cache is shared node-wide).
- media_cache.drop_tmdb_match(file_id): forgets the match AND the
override marker — deliberately stronger than clear_file_tmdb, since the
operator is explicitly asking for a fresh resolution.
- webrtc_server: _do_tmdb_rematch / _admin_exec_tmdb_rematch, dispatch +
admin-response routing, broadcasts tmdb_rematch_ack.
- transport.js: rematchTmdbMatch(fileId, signFn); 'tmdb_rematch' in the
admin-op allowlist; tmdb_rematch_ack handled like tmdb_override_ack.
- video-app.js: a "Re-match" button beside "Fix match" in the detail
modal (isNodeAdmin), then bumpMediaMetaGeneration(). video.rematch_one
key in all ten locales.
docs/mediacenter.md §10.1: V8–V13 marked done.

Bump the three packages to 0.8.0 (released together) and realign
meshbay-common's __version__, which had drifted to 0.7.0 while the
pyproject stayed at 0.6.0. Dependency pins updated to meshbay-common>=0.8.0.
Protocol versions are independent and unchanged: MNP 0.12, MHP 0.1. The
Electron client stays on its own 0.1.0 track (hub MIN_CLIENT_VERSION).
Since 0.6/0.7: public-groups admin switch with full server-side enforcement
and a group Revoke action; chat link previews (node-side URL unfurl, SSRF-
gated); chat composer focus + scroll-to-bottom on tab entry; whole-group
"Filter files" search.

Paste an http(s) link in a group's chat and it unfurls into an OpenGraph
card — title, description, site name, and image — the way WhatsApp/Signal/
Slack do it.
The fetch is the node's, never the browser's or the hub's. The browser
cannot: a strict img-src/connect-src and CORS block it, and a direct fetch
would leak every reader's IP to the linked host on each render. The hub must
not touch group content (draft-v6 §2.5). The node already fetches third-party
metadata for the Videos and Music apps, over the same authorised path.
Flow mirrors media_meta_req: the client sends `link_preview_req {url}`, the
node replies `link_preview_resp` with the card fields (or `ok: false`), and
any OG image is stored under its blake3 in the existing media_cache thumb
store — the client then fetches it via the normal file_req path, exactly like
a poster. Nothing durable is added: the card text lives in a bounded in-memory
TTL cache on the node (draft-v6 §2.7 — enrichment on demand, the asking device
caches), and MNP goes 0.11 → 0.12 (additive: an older node logs "unknown type"
and the client shows the bare link).
Because the URL is chosen by a *member* and triggers an outbound request from
the operator's machine, `linkpreview.safe_url` is an SSRF gate: http(s) only,
no credentials, and every resolved address must be globally routable — no
loopback, private, link-local, multicast or reserved range, cloud-metadata
included. Redirects are followed by hand so each hop is re-checked. Residual,
documented in the module: DNS rebinding between the check and connect, closed
properly by pinning the checked IP — a follow-up.
Also fixes a long-standing chat annoyance the preview cards made worse:
opening the Chat tab landed a screen or two above the newest message because
the scroll-to-bottom ran before attachment thumbnails and (now) preview cards
had loaded and grown the content. A ResizeObserver keeps the view pinned to
the bottom through late content growth, and does nothing once the reader
scrolls up.
Tests: test_linkpreview.py (the SSRF gate and the OpenGraph parse, incl.
redirect re-validation and image downscaling) and test_link_preview_request.py
(reply shape, the media_cache image round-trip, the result cache).

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 -> 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.

musicbay.md's original call — Music needs no root, tag reads are cheap so
just cover the whole shared tree — didn't hold up against a real messy
library: everything under every shared folder got mixed together with no
way to scope Music down to an actual music collection. This adds an
audio_root setting, symmetric to video_root in every respect: signed
operator op (audio_root/audio_root_ack, MNP bumped to 0.10), validated
against a real directory in the group's own roots before a signature is
even asked for, gates tag/cover enrichment exactly like video_root gates
ffprobe/TMDB (nothing runs until it's set, only files under it once it
is), and a set/change fires a one-off sweep of whatever the folder already
contains.
The old trigger — sweep everything the instant "music" joins enabled_apps
— is gone along with the root-less design it belonged to; setting
audio_root is now the trigger, mirroring set_video_root's
enrich_video_root_fn exactly.
Test coverage mirrors the video_root suite: policy (refuse before a
signature round trip, accept/store correctly) and the enrichment gate
itself (nothing without a root, only files under it, sweep on set).

Tagging and covers for these two formats landed already, but neither one
decodes in any mainstream browser's <audio> element at all — a real
library scan turned up 273 such files that would show up correctly in the
Music app and then simply fail on click. This closes that gap: the node
transcodes to AAC/M4A on request (a one-shot whole-file conversion, not
live-piped like video's fMP4 segments — an audio file is small enough that
streaming it buys nothing), caches the result under its own content hash
the same way a TMDB poster or a MusicBrainz cover is cached, and serves it
back through the ordinary file_req/chunk path. That path used to assume
anything in the media cache was thumbnail-sized (single chunk, always);
generalized it to slice a cached blob the same way a real file on disk
gets sliced, since a transcoded track can be several MB.
New MNP pair (`audio_transcode_req`/`_resp`, version bump to 0.9), shares
its concurrency cap with video's transcode pool rather than getting its
own — both are real ffmpeg processes on the same node. Every other audio
format is untouched: this only fires for .wma/.mpc, the two extensions
that need it.

Implements the node half of docs/musicbay.md against MNP 0.8:
- IndexEntry gains artist/album/track_no (reuses duration/thumb_hash/
display_title, already generic). New musicbrainz_config/_enabled and
music_meta_req/_resp message pairs, mirroring the TMDB shape.
- title_parse.parse_track_filename: track-number-prefix + title parsing,
fallback-only (embedded tags are the primary source, unlike Videos).
- indexer.enrich_audio.AudioEnricher: mutagen-based tag/embedded-cover
extraction through its own bounded pool (asyncio.to_thread, no
subprocess — no ffmpeg-shaped deadlock risk). Gated on "music" in a
group's enabled_apps rather than a video_root-style scoped folder.
- musicbrainz.py: MusicBrainzClient — no API key (unlike TMDB), just a
self-imposed ~1 req/s pace and a configurable, non-default User-Agent
contact string; inert (no calls at all) when no contact is configured,
never sends an unidentified client.
- media_cache.py: file_mbid/mbid_meta tables alongside the existing TMDB
ones, cover art reusing the thumbs table via a synthetic
musicbrainz:{mbid} id, pruned on file deletion.
- roster.py/ops.py/webrtc_server.py: musicbrainz_contact (node-wide) and
musicbrainz_enabled (per-group, from the start) as signed operator
settings, ALLOWED_APPS gains "music", _do_music_meta_request resolves
and caches a release-level MusicBrainz match per (artist, album).
- daemon.py: AudioEnricher/MusicBrainzClient wired alongside the video
ones; a group's existing library is swept when "music" is newly
enabled (no video_root equivalent — see musicbay.md §2.1).
41 new tests (musicbrainz.py against a mocked transport, admin-op policy
for both new settings, media_cache round-trip/pruning, enrich_audio
end-to-end against real ffmpeg-generated MP3s). Full suite (common +
node + hub): 1116 passed, no regressions.
Client-side (music-app.js, persistent player bar) not started yet.

Three bugs found live testing the Videos app against a real HEVC/EAC3 show,
plus a design change requested afterward:
- Streaming always did "-c:v copy", which faithfully reports a source's real
hev1 codec string but is unplayable in a browser with no HEVC decoder
(most Chrome/Linux builds). The node now transcodes to H264 whenever the
probed codec is browser-incompatible (media_probe.py's new
BROWSER_INCOMPATIBLE_VIDEO_CODECS), with a `transcode_incompatible_video`
node.toml opt-out for operators who know their viewers already decode it.
- Dropping a whole season into an already-watched folder gave no scanning
indicator and no progress bar: IndexProgress was only ever updated by the
two bulk scan paths, never by the real-time per-file watchdog path
(_schedule_update/_debounce/_update_entry). That path now accounts a
"burst" the same way, without double-counting a file rewritten mid-debounce.
- A stray literal "0" rendered in the video detail modal when there was no
TMDB match (`meta.confidence` is 0, and `0 && x` renders "0" in JSX/htm,
not nothing) — `confident` is now a real boolean.
- Whether TMDB is used at all moves from a node-wide setting to per-group
(OP_TMDB_ENABLED/tmdb_enabled/tmdb_enabled_ack, scoped like OP_VIDEO_ROOT):
an operator running a real media-library group alongside test/demo groups
on one node wants outbound TMDB traffic for the one that needs it, not all
of them. The custom API token and query language stay node-wide, one
shared credential/cache (tmdb_config/OP_TMDB_CONFIG, unchanged reasoning).
MNP_VERSION 0.6 -> 0.7, additive.

wizard polish
Two operator-facing fixes for a real 3-season show whose automatic TMDB
match was wrong at the show level: per-season overview/air_date tabs in the
detail modal (falling back to the show-level text when a season's own is
empty), and a "Fix match…" search-and-correct affordance that re-resolves
every file sharing the corrected show's display_title. New signed op
OP_TMDB_OVERRIDE and two read-only pairs (season_meta_req/resp,
tmdb_search_req/resp), MNP_VERSION 0.5 -> 0.6.
Also: the create-group wizard gets a spinning indexing indicator and an
app-selection step, group settings default the TMDB language to the
operator's own locale (never as a global default), and a file renamed
mid-session now re-triggers title parsing instead of being silently
skipped by the enrichment dedup guard.
Fixes two bugs found during this work: the search overlay's z-index lost
to the base video-overlay class and rendered invisibly, and season_meta's
own empty overview didn't fall back to the show-level one.

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.

reconcile, and delta sync
Indexer performance work, in four parts:
- Persistent (path, size, mtime) -> hash cache (indexer/cache.py) so a node
restart no longer re-hashes every file — measured at 23 minutes for a
114 GB library on a slow disk before this, near-instant after. Hashing
is deliberately kept sequential (max_workers=1): it was never actually
concurrent despite the pool size, and two interleaved reads seek-thrash
a spinning disk instead of going faster.
- Byte-based scan progress (IndexProgress), surfaced via the loopback
index-status route, the handshake ack, and a periodic INDEX_PROGRESS
push to connected peers — drives a progress bar in the Create Group
wizard and "add a directory" in Settings, and an animated presence dot.
Guaranteed to settle back to idle via try/finally and a final push on
the scanning->false transition.
- The reconcile backstop's directory walks now run in the executor
instead of blocking the daemon's event loop; its interval defaults to
10 min (was 60s) with adaptive backoff to 2h when nothing changes,
reset on a real change or a peer connecting, and is now a per-group
operator setting (signed op + group Settings UI).
- INDEX_DELTA wired up (protocol support existed, nothing called it):
_on_index_change now sends additions/deletions instead of rebuilding
the full entries list, coalesced over a short window so a burst of
file events produces one push, and the hub swarm registration for
public groups only (re-)registers newly added hashes.
Also fixes several bugs found while testing the above against real
libraries (a 114 GB and a 100+ GB group on a USB HDD):
- /api/reload blocked until the reload — including a brand-new group's
full initial scan — finished, which the Electron bridge's fixed 30s
call timeout turned into a hard failure on any real library. The route
now fires the reload without waiting (ops.start_reload), matching
add_root/remove_root's existing pattern; the wizard's own step order
was fixed to wait for the group to actually appear hosted before the
steps that need it (extra roots, GEK), with retries for the residual
race between that and the daemon's own bookkeeping.
- transport.js's hand-rolled msgpack codec had no case for uint64/int64
(0xcf/0xd3) and crashed decoding any message containing one — hit by
IndexProgress.scanned_bytes/total_bytes for any group over ~4.3 GB.
Verified against real msgpack-encoded bytes from the Python side.
- chat_hist_resp, and this change's own index_progress and
set_scan_settings_ack pushes, were not routed by message type and
could be handed to an unrelated pending request by the transport's
"oldest pending" fallback, stalling it until its own 30s timeout and
corrupting whatever received the wrong reply in its place.

The group UI's applications split, and the two missing-import bugs it
surfaced and fixed along the way.
MNP goes to 0.4: apps_enabled/apps_enabled_ack, and enabled_apps on the
handshake ack, for the group-applications registry. Additive — a node that
predates it is never sent the op, and a client that predates it never looks
for the field.

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.

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.

A group where every member may add files stays the default. Some groups want a
library the operator curates, and until now the only way to get one was to
designate no upload root at all — which refuses the operator too.
**The node enforces it; the interface merely stops offering it.** The Upload
button in the Files toolbar and the paperclip in the chat composer both
disappear, which is a courtesy to the people who are not trying. The control is
`_do_file_upload` refusing with `member_upload_off`, so a member on an old tab,
or one speaking MNP directly, gets the same answer. There is a test for each,
and the enforcement test is in the node package rather than beside the UI one so
nobody reads the hidden button as the mechanism.
**Changing it is a signed operator instruction** — `OP_MEMBER_UPLOAD`, on the
same path as removing a member. An unsigned one would let any member turn it
back on and make the setting a suggestion. The transcript's subject is `on` or
`off`: what the operator is shown before signing has to name the outcome, not
the operation.
**It lives on the node**, in a new `group_settings` table in `roster.db`. Not
the hub, which has no business deciding who may write to someone else's disk.
Not `node.toml` either: that file is hand-written and full of comments recording
decisions, `ops.py` appends to it rather than round-tripping it through a
writer, and a setting toggled from a panel must not rewrite the operator's file
or need a restart. The value is cached in the group context because the upload
path is synchronous, and the signed operation updates both — storing it without
applying it would make the panel say one thing while the node did another.
**Absent means allowed**, at every layer: no row in the table, no key in the
context, no field in `handshake_ack`. An older node and an older client both
behave exactly as before, and upgrading never silently closes a group. Each of
those three has its own test, because they fail independently.
The operator is always exempt — otherwise turning it off locks them out of their
own node with a config file and a restart as the only way back. `is_node_admin`
was being computed in two places by then and is now one function, since two
copies of "is this the operator" is how the ack and the gate come to disagree.
A change reaches everyone already connected via `member_upload_ack`, so the
button goes without a reconnection. That message is both a broadcast and the
reply to the request that caused it, which is why the client does not return
early on it.
Docs updated for a cold start: draft-v6 §2.1b and change 9, a new "Where Phase
13 stands" section in CLAUDE.md recording what is built, deployed and still
missing, the module map row, and desktop-client-v1 §10b on the Settings tab and
where group settings live.
883 tests pass.

Stage C. Identity keys are per node, so a browser and a desktop client are two
keys on one account there — and the node refused the second where it accepted
the first. Without this, an account created natively could never be opened in a
browser without an operator code per node, and "a native client must not prevent
web use" would have been dead on arrival.
Device linking (node)
---------------------
`identities` is keyed by `(user_id, pk_ed25519)` instead of `user_id` alone. The
old shape did `INSERT OR REPLACE`, so a second device overwrote the first
silently; SQLite cannot change a primary key in place, so the table is rebuilt.
Existing pins are carried over — verified against a live roster with 10 of them,
nobody re-pairs.
A new device files a request bound by `sha256(code ‖ its own keys)`, and a key
the node **already pinned** countersigns it. The hub cannot: it has stored no
user keys since 2026-08-14, which is what makes this safe to do without an
operator in the loop.
**The code never reaches the node.** It lists this account's pending requests
with their stored hashes; the approver recomputes and keeps the match. A node
offering fabricated keys would have to produce a hash over a code it has never
seen. Nothing rests on a human comparing digits — that ritual was dropped in
12.1 as "correct, unusable as the default" and must not return by the back door.
The design document had the approver look a request up *by* its hash, which is
circular: computing it needs the keys being asked about. Corrected in both.
Revocation marks rather than deletes, because a deleted row is a key the node
would happily pin again — which is the laptop somebody just reported lost. Your
last device cannot be revoked: coming back would need an operator's code.
Hub — the only change in the whole plan
---------------------------------------
`POST /v1/users/auth` signs in with a device Ed25519 key, on the same pattern as
`/v1/nodes/auth`, plus `/v1/users/devices` to register, list and retire. New
`user_devices` table with an Alembic migration, because `create_all()` is not
one.
This is **not** the key directory that was H3, and the tests say so: nothing
reads it but the hub, no group key is ever wrapped for one, and it is a
different key from the per-node identities. What it does cost is metadata — the
hub now knows how many devices an account has and when each last signed in.
Also `client.minimum` / `client.recommended` in `GET /v1/hub/version`: an
installed client meets a newer hub the day the interface ships in a package, and
that is cheap now and awkward to retrofit.
Browser
-------
The `key_changed` refusal becomes `unknown_device` and offers a linking code
instead of telling someone to find their operator. The Members panel lists this
account's devices here, approves one by code, and retires one.
773 tests pass. `e2e.py` gained a step that links a device end to end against
the live deployment — file, list, recompute, countersign, then open the group
with the new keys and no code — and it also gained `recv_type`, because a step
that assumes the next message is its own answer reads an ack left by the step
before.

Stage A — a group's content is a set of named roots
---------------------------------------------------
`shared_dir` becomes a list of {name, path, kind}. The name is the directory's
basename, derived once at add time and *stored*: recomputing it would
re-identify a whole library the day someone renames a folder on disk. Duplicate
names are refused case-insensitively and no root may contain another — both
compared with NFC folding, because most of these directories live on exFAT or
NTFS where `Films` and `films` are one directory.
Every index path carries its root name, in a one-root group as much as in a
five-root one. One path shape has to be got right once; two have to be kept
right for ever.
**A root that goes away freezes; it never empties.** Unmounting a volume makes
watchdog report every file under it as deleted, or presents an empty directory
to the next scan. Acting on either propagates deletions for a whole library to
every member, as though the owner had erased it. So a deletion is acted on only
once its root is confirmed readable, and availability is tracked per root — one
unplugged drive leaves the others serving. 12 tests, verified to fail against an
indexer without the check.
Events are not trusted to be complete either: ReadDirectoryChangesW drops them
under load and inotify on a FUSE mount misses changes made outside it. A
periodic reconciliation sweep is the only thing that recovers a missed event.
MNP 0.2 → 0.3 (additive). The hub needs no change: SwarmSource carries a content
hash, a node id and an endpoint — no paths, no filenames — and private groups
register nothing (H7).
Stage B — one implementation behind every front door
----------------------------------------------------
C1 and C6 were both "a second path into the node with its own weaker
handshake". Two implementations of `revoke` with two authorization checks is
that shape one size down. `meshbay_node/ops.py` holds each operation once,
takes the daemon state, and knows nothing about HTTP, argv or MNP. The loopback
API is one `_op(...)` line per endpoint; the MNP handlers call the same
functions. test_ops.py asserts the shape rather than trusting it.
Phase 14 is finished on top of it — `group list`, `gek init|rotate`, `reload`
(SIGHUP), `denylist show|clear`, `file list|rm`. **No operator action requires a
browser any more.** Plus `gek_rotate` and `member_unpin` as operator-signed MNP
operations: rotation is the half of revocation that revocation cannot do, since
the ex-member holds the current key, and the node generates the replacement
with its own CSPRNG — no key material crosses the wire, which is what the C5b
rule is actually about.
Two bugs found by running it rather than by testing it
------------------------------------------------------
GroupIndex is keyed by **content hash**, so the same bytes at two paths are one
entry — which is also why a scan reports ten files and indexes nine.
Reconciliation compared paths, so it decided the second path was a missed event
every 60 s, rewrote the entry and pushed an index update to every connected
peer. Seen in a live node's log.
`meshbay-node reload` crashed on first use with `subprocess` unimported: the
module compiles fine, which is the "syntax, not names" trap already recorded for
the SPA. test_cli_dispatch.py now walks every verb and refuses to let one be
added to the parser without an entry there.
Also corrected: protocol.py declared a second MNP_VERSION of "0.1" while the
wire carried "0.2" — harmless only because nothing imported it. And
_do_dir_create/_do_dir_delete referenced an undefined `filename` on their error
path.
740 tests pass; QE/deploy/e2e.py passes end to end against the live deployment.

`get_messages` pages forward from the oldest message. That is the right shape
for "what happened since I last looked" and the wrong one for opening a
conversation, and the browser asked it for `since=0, limit=200` — so a group
with more than two hundred messages showed its first two hundred and the
exchange anyone came for was unreachable. Demonstrated on 300 messages: the
newest was simply absent from the answer.
`get_recent` and `get_before` page backwards, cursored on the row id rather than
the timestamp. Nothing makes a `time.time()` float unique, and a cursor on a
value two rows can share eventually skips a message or repeats it.
PING/PONG covers liveness on an already-open channel: a DataChannel whose peer
vanished without closing still reads as connected, and nothing noticed until a
real request hung. It is not a discovery mechanism — opening a connection to
ping costs a full ICE/DTLS handshake, measured at 0.6-7 s across two ISPs — so
presence in the group list comes from the hub's registry instead.
Both additions are backward compatible: an 0.1 peer sends no `before` and is
answered with the newest page, which is what it wanted.

The web client speaks ten languages instead of one: French, Spanish,
Brazilian Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, German, Italian, Dutch
and Polish, all formal, with `hub`, `node` and `GEK` deliberately left in
English so the interface still matches the CLI and the docs. Catalogues
are fetched per language rather than shipped together, plural forms go
through Intl.PluralRules because Polish needs four of them, and locale
matching keeps the region so pt-BR and zh-CN resolve to the files written
for them.
Splitting one module into a loader and ten catalogues gave the SPA a
version dependency it did not have before, and the hub was serving static
assets with no explicit freshness at all. A browser that cached half a
deploy either rendered every string as its own key or, in the other
direction, failed to link the module graph and showed nothing. Static
responses now carry no-cache, which costs one conditional request and
answers 304 with no body.
The node and common packages carry no functional change; they move with
the version because the three are released together.

Twenty-one commits since 0.2, and enough of them change what the thing
does that moving the old tag would have been the wrong description.
Node: video streaming paced by the client rather than pushed at it, and a
stream that ends when the viewer closes instead of holding a transcode
slot for two minutes. An operator can remove an empty directory and
revoke a member over MNP. `meshbay-node group add` attaches another hub
group without hand-editing node.toml. The node.toml operator key is gone;
the roster is the only source of authority.
Hub and web client: transfers outlive the page that started them, with a
widget that shows the rate and can cancel them; downloads stream to disk
in every browser, through the File System Access API where it exists and
a service worker where it does not; a folder can be taken as a zip built
in the browser. A group owner can remove a member and edit the
description. Nodes are recorded at the address their signed announcement
arrived from, not the one STUN told them about. Deleted accounts stop
being counted while the connection log keeps their name.

**Closing the viewer left the node working.** Nothing told it to stop:
the player dropped its handlers, which only made the browser deaf. ffmpeg
kept running and held one of the node's two transcode slots until the
credit timeout expired two minutes later — which is why the next video
answered "server busy". `stream_stop` ends it at once, and the viewer
also drops its queue, ends the MediaSource and revokes the object URL on
the way out, any of which could be holding megabytes of decrypted video.
While there: `file_chunk` replies were matched to their requests by
arrival order, which was true by luck rather than by construction. The
reply now names the file it belongs to and is matched on that and the
chunk index; a chunk nobody is waiting for is dropped instead of being
handed to whatever request happens to be oldest.
**The administration panel counted its own history.** A deleted account
is tombstoned so the connection log stays readable, and every count and
list treated that row as a user — including a group's member count, and
the member list of the group itself. They do not any more.
**Where a node is.** `endpoint_hint` is what a node believes its address
to be, learned from a STUN server and sent to us: useful for reaching it,
and a claim. The announcement that carries it is signed with the node key
over a fresh timestamp, so the address that request *arrives from* is the
address of whoever holds that key — that is now recorded on the node row
and shown in a Nodes tab, next to the hint, with the difference spelled
out. Clients get the same treatment: `webrtc_offer` is logged with the
address the hub saw when a browser starts a peer connection.
Verified against the live deployment: the node's row reads 90.112.206.172
after a restart, and in e2e a stopped stream goes quiet in one message
and the next one starts immediately instead of being refused.

**Removing a member.** The owner can do it from the Members tab, and it
is two halves in the order that fails safe: the node stops serving the
group key first (an operator-signed request, so a paired browser only),
then the hub drops the membership row. The other order would leave
someone able to reach a node that still serves them.
It is a membership, not an account. The user row is never written: their
other groups, their files and their pinned identity survive, because one
group's owner must not be able to erase someone from the hub. It is also
per group — a node hosting two loses them from one — and it does not take
back the key they already unwrapped, which is what rotating the GEK is
for. The confirmation and the panel both say so.
**Downloads and streaming through the disk, in both browsers.** The audit
this started as found two ways to put gigabytes in a tab.
Firefox and Safari have no File System Access API, so every download
there was collected in memory. A service worker fixes it: the page keeps
the writable half of a transferred stream, the worker answers a made-up
URL with the readable half and a Content-Disposition header, and the
browser writes it to disk as it arrives, with real backpressure. The
worker caches nothing and falls through on every request that is not one
of these downloads. A zip announces no Content-Length, since the archive
is larger than the files in it and a length we miss truncates the file.
Video was worse and affected both browsers. The node pushed ffmpeg's
whole output as fast as it was produced while the player consumed a
segment at a time, so the queue held the film — and appending all of it
hit the SourceBuffer's cap, where the handler logged the error and
dropped the segment, leaving a hole in the middle of the film with
nothing to show for it. Streaming is credit-based now, 24 segments of
256 KB in flight, verified against the live node: three credits, three
segments, then silence until more are granted. The player evicts what is
more than a minute behind the playhead and retries a refused segment
rather than dropping it.

Two things a Files panel needs and did not have.
**Removing a directory** is privileged, where creating one is not: it
acts on a name other members are using, on the operator's disk. It is
refused unless the directory is empty, and that rule is the safety
property — whatever the browser sends, this cannot destroy content. The
check runs twice, once before the challenge and once after the signature
comes back, because a file can land during the round trip. A file also
accepts its uploader's key; a directory has no uploader, so only the
operator's key will do.
**Downloading a folder** produces a zip built in the browser, written
straight to disk as the chunks arrive. An archive of a group folder is
routinely tens of gigabytes, so nothing is held: peak memory is one chunk
plus a small record per file. The node is not involved at all — it serves
the same encrypted chunks as any other download, holds no temporary
files, and cannot be asked to compress anything.
zipstream.js is store-only. Group content is video and images, already
compressed, so deflate would spend CPU on every byte to save nothing, in
the thread that is also decrypting. Sizes and CRCs go in a data
descriptor after each file because a stream cannot seek back to patch a
header, and zip64 kicks in per entry past 4 GiB and for the archive
itself. Because none of that can be checked from the Python side of the
house, test_zipstream.py runs the real module under Node and reads what
it produces with zipfile — CRCs, UTF-8 names, zip64 records and all. The
archives also pass `unzip -t`.
Firefox and Safari have no File System Access API, so there is nowhere to
stream to: the fallback builds the archive in memory and says so, with
the size, before starting rather than after failing.
One mistake worth recording: the first version of deleteDirectory passed
the node's own answer as the value to check the challenge against, which
turns the comparison into a tautology. It checks the path we asked for.

The per-user quarantine is gone. `.uploads/{user_id}/` was the fix for C5a, and
it worked, but it made the shared directory something nobody could organise:
every file landed under a uuid nobody recognises. Files now go where the member
is looking, most often the root.
What the quarantine actually bought is kept, and is now what the tests assert
rather than the location:
- an existing file is never replaced. That was the real defect — overwriting a
file also made the attacker its recorded uploader, and therefore able to
delete it through the uploader path
- the name allowlist is unchanged
- the destination is confined under the shared root
That last one is new surface: the directory arrives from the client. safe_subdir()
is the single place that decides, with two independent guards — every segment
against the name allowlist, and the resolved result under the root — because one
of them will eventually be refactored by someone who does not know why it is
there. Ten traversal cases are covered, and they fail if both guards go.
Also adds `dir_create` (any member may organise a shared directory; audited like
anything that writes to the operator's disk) and makes the node report its real
directory list in index_sync — folders were inferred from file paths, so a new
empty one, or one that had been emptied, simply did not exist as far as the UI
was concerned.
Two C5a tests changed their assertions deliberately, as C5b's did before: they
encoded the quarantine path, which is the thing being removed. The property they
existed for is asserted more directly than before.

All three packages together, as the conventions require, plus the RPM and DEB
metadata and their changelogs.
The tag said 0.2 while every package announced 0.1.0, which would have shipped an
RPM claiming to be the reviewed build while containing a different protocol: the
hub schema lost the user identity keys, tokens lost pk_user, and
gek_bundle_store left the wire. Pre-1.0, a breaking change bumps MINOR.

One keypair was copied to every node its owner joined, so cracking the bundle on
any single node yielded the identity used on all of them: their content on other
operators' machines, and the ability to sign as them anywhere. That lateral reach
was the part of C4 worth attacking.
Each node now gets its own keypair, generated the first time its owner joins it
and left with that node alone. An operator who cracks what sits on their own disk
holds a key that is a stranger to every other node — and on their own node, one
that unlocks nothing they did not already hold: they serve the content, the index
and every byte of it by design.
Nothing changes for the user. A first contact with a node already needed that
operator's code, and the key is created in the same step; a second browser still
recovers it from the node with the passphrase alone. Two operators can also no
longer tell they host the same person by comparing keys.
BREAKING, and deliberately without a compatibility path — the deployment is wiped
for the next demo:
- users.pk_ed25519 / pk_x25519 dropped (migration a7c31f9e40b2)
- registration no longer sends or stores a key
- PUT /v1/users/me/keys and regenerateKeys() gone; rotation is now
`member unpin` plus a fresh code, decided on the machine that pinned it
- /pubkeys returns an account id and a node's linking key. It was the directory
H3 read, and nothing wraps for it any more
- the pk_user JWT claim is gone
That last one closed a live defect the inventory turned up: the node recorded
pk_user as the uploader's identity and authorized deletion against it, so a hub
issuing a token naming its own key could delete anyone's uploads on any node.
Attribution now uses the key the node itself pinned.
A simplification falls out. Registration generates nothing, so a scripted signup
is a real account: `demo.py bootstrap` takes a wiped hub and node to a working
demo with no browser, which was impossible while keys were born in one.
Also fixes, found by running it on a wiped deployment: the key handed back on a
join now belongs to the group the connection is for, not the group named in the
invitation — an operator pairs node-wide but redeems the code while opening a
group, and expects to read it.
Tests: 343, including the two that state the property — a key pinned by one node
is refused at another, and someone else's code does not admit it. Verified end to
end against a wiped hub and node: bootstrap, pair, invite, join, download,
stream, second browser, revoke.

Two things the multi-browser story made obvious.
**The backup is now opt-out.** Keys are kept, encrypted with the passphrase, on
every node whose group you join — that is what lets a second browser recover
them, and it is finding C4: a PBKDF2-protected blob on other people's disks,
attackable offline at the speed of PBKDF2, which is memory-light and therefore
cheap on a GPU. Until now everybody paid that cost, including people who will
only ever use one browser and get nothing back for it.
Settings → "Use this account on other devices". Turning it off does not merely
stop future uploads: the next connection to each node withdraws what that node
already holds (new keypair_bundle_delete, which only ever deletes the caller's
own, taken from the authenticated session and never from the message). The
warning says plainly what it costs — clearing the browser then loses everything
encrypted for that account, with no recovery, which is the point of choosing it.
Default is on. Silent, unrecoverable key loss is worse for an ordinary user than
an exposure the roadmap already tracks, but that is a judgement call and it is
now visible and reversible instead of implicit.
**Passphrase floor 8 → 12 characters, plus a strength estimate** shown while
typing, with a refusal below ~60 bits. This number matters more here than in
most applications: it is what stands between a node operator and your identity
keys. It has to live in the client — with the password split (T1) the hub never
sees a password and cannot enforce anything about one — so the UI says why it
is asking, rather than nagging.
The estimator is deliberately conservative and dependency-free: character
classes and length, penalised for repetition and for the handful of patterns
everyone tries.
Verified against the live deployment: withdrawing the backup leaves a second
browser unable to recover anything, which is exactly what it promises, and
re-enabling restores it.
Tests: 338.
