Into the folder on screen, under the Upload button's rule. A name already
there, or one the node would refuse, cancels the whole drop with a message.
Folders are recreated level by level; files go out a few at a time. The
in-flight upload guard is keyed by folder and name.

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.

Stage 7a of ~/next/improve-downloads.md: pausing within a session, on the
targets that can actually do it. Resuming across a reload is 7b.
A paused transfer holds **nothing**. Its slot goes back to the node the moment
it stops and resuming rejoins the queue at the tail, because anything else lets
one member close a node by pausing four downloads and going to lunch. So the
lease is taken inside the run loop rather than before it, and pause is refused
outright for a transfer that could not ask for another one.
Resuming is exact rather than approximate: the pipeline stops between two
chunks and never inside one, so what is on disk is always a whole number of
chunks and `fromChunk` is a verified position. The failure mode being avoided
is a file that looks complete and is quietly corrupt.
The target has to survive it, so a pause no longer reaches the `abort()` that a
failure does -- that would delete Electron's `.part` or the file just created in
the granted folder, leaving nothing to continue. And the in-memory fallback
keeps its accumulated chunks rather than starting a second array.
The button is drawn only where the target says it can. A service-worker stream
says no, in its own code and for its own reasons: the browser is already writing
an HTTP response into its own download folder, not feeding it stalls that
download where we cannot see or resume it, and an idle worker is terminated
within seconds. Firefox and Safari therefore keep cancel and get no pause, which
is the decision recorded in §6.5.
Cancelling a paused transfer ends it. A paused run is parked on a promise;
without waking it the row said "cancelled" over work that had not stopped and a
target that was still open.
Six cases, each checked against the unfixed source. Hub suite 842 passed.

Clicking Download produced nothing — no row, no icon, no panel — for as long as
it took to open somewhere to write, and then several rows at once. The streamed
path waits for the worker twice; a Save As dialog waits for a person. The row
was created after that, so the slowest part of a download happened with nothing
on screen to say it had begun.
The store gains a `prepare` step, distinct from `run`, and the order is now:
row, then target, then slot.
That last part is why the obvious fix was wrong. Taking the slot first would let
the row appear immediately, and it was tried this morning: a granted slot has to
be taken up within the node's deadline, opening a target can outlast it, and
three downloads became one. (The diagnosis at the time blamed that ordering for
revocations which were in fact a missing `touch()` call — the revert was right
for the wrong reason.) `makeLease` is called after `prepare` succeeds, never
before.
Three behaviours fall out, each with a test:
- a dismissed dialog leaves nothing behind. `prepare` returning false drops
the row: nothing started, so nothing should remain on screen to explain it;
- the row takes the name the file was actually saved under, once known;
- a refusal above the memory ceiling fails the row that is already there,
rather than creating one to kill it.
`preparing` counts as live everywhere — badge, cancel, clearFinished, and
`_busy`, since closing a transport under a preparing transfer strands it exactly
as under a queued one. Six places asked "is this finished?" and were drifting
apart; there is one definition now.
Two mistakes in the tests, worth the note: one counted positions in an output
array by hand and was one out, which reads exactly like a failing assertion
about the code — the values are tagged now, not indexed. And
test_zip_size_limit.py's stub did not run `prepare`, so it no longer reached the
size check the file is about; it now behaves like the real store.
819 hub, 1169 node, 0 failed.

Steps 5 and 6 of ~/next/improve-downloads.md. The node has handed out slots
since step 2 and nothing asked for one; now the client does, and the panel shows
what is happening.
`transport.openTransfer()` returns a Lease: `acquire()` resolves when the node
grants, `release()` gives it back exactly once, and nothing else in the client
speaks to the node about slots. Whether a node hands out slots is read from the
handshake ack rather than guessed from a timeout — "no answer yet" and "this
node will never answer" are indistinguishable in time, and guessing wrong either
stalls every download or defeats the cap.
Two things exist only because a queue can lie: a watchdog re-asks when a pushed
grant does not arrive (the node is idempotent on `tr`, so asking again is free),
and a grant for a transfer the page has forgotten is handed straight back rather
than held until the node's deadline.
The slot is asked for **after** there is somewhere to write, and that ordering
is load-bearing: opening a target takes thirty seconds of streamed-download
timeouts, or as long as somebody leaves a Save As dialog open, and a grant not
taken up in time is revoked. Moving it earlier looked better and broke three
downloads into one. Pinned by a test.
The panel groups by state — running, waiting, finished — rather than re-sorting a
flat list, so a row moves only when its own state does. The ETA is withheld until
the speed window holds real measurement: a figure from the first two chunks
swings between four seconds and an hour, and people plan around the first number
they see. One live region announces state changes and not progress.
Three silent paths closed on the way: a download refused for want of a user
gesture (a browser grants one file picker per gesture, and downloading three
files is one gesture) now falls back to the streamed path, which needs none; a
click with no connection says so instead of doing nothing at all; and a queued
transfer counts as busy, so a transport is never closed under one that is
waiting for a grant that could then never arrive.

of it
Two bugs in what shipped last, and both were mine.
Automatic mode still opened Save As, because with no folder granted the
code fell through to the file picker — while the documentation said it
would use the browser's own download folder. It does that now. Over
512 MB it still asks, since getting there means holding the file in
memory and a tab will not survive a 40 GB blob; Settings is where to stop
it asking again.
Selecting two files downloaded one. They were started without awaiting,
so each asked the browser for a save dialog at once, and a browser allows
exactly one — the rest were rejected and the errors went nowhere. They
are awaited one at a time now, which serializes the dialogs and not the
transfers: each call returns as soon as its transfer is registered.
Then the adjustments. The transfers widget offers Open on a finished
download that went into a granted folder — the bytes go to a new tab, and
that is the whole of what a page can do: no browser lets one start a
desktop application or show a file manager, so the folder half of that
request cannot be built and the guide says so.
The Files toolbar was four controls of three different heights in a row.
It is three groups now — what you can add, where you are, what you can do
with what is here — on one baseline, with icons from the set and a gap
between the dots and the word Actions. Chat comes first among the tabs
and is the one you land on. The three Discover entries in the sidebar
have icons. And a link in a chat message becomes a link: built as an
element and never as markup, http and https only, so `javascript:` is not
one message away from running here.

per-row menus
Downloads and uploads were state inside GroupPage. Leaving a group
unmounted the component, its cleanup closed the DataChannel, and a
half-written file was all you had — which is also why only one thing
could be in flight at a time.
They live in a module-level store now. A group page hands its transport
over on the way out rather than closing it, and the last transfer using
it closes it; signing out is the one thing that cancels everything,
because those transfers are moving data on a token about to stop being
ours. The store is plain JavaScript with no browser globals, so
test_transfers.py runs it under Node and pins the parts that are timing
and lifetime rather than markup: that a cancel stops the work instead of
greying out a row, that a stalled transfer reads as stalled rather than
reporting its own historical average, and that a released transport is
closed by the last transfer and not before.
The widget by the bell shows each transfer with its rate and a cancel
button, so the Files panel no longer carries progress bars — you can
watch a 40 GB archive from the chat, or from another group.
Selection replaces the per-row menu: a Select toggle puts checkboxes on
files and folders, and ⋮ Actions acts on what is ticked. Ticks survive
walking into another folder, so a selection can span directories.
Downloads start together and run together. Videos offer Play only — View
did the same thing, which is the sort of duplication that makes people
wonder what the difference is.
Uploads had to become parallel-safe for any of this to mean anything:
their acks were matched by arrival order, so two at once credited each
other's progress. The node names the file in every ack, so they are keyed
by name now — with the same file twice refused, since the node keys its
own upload state that way too.
Two mistakes worth recording. The selection column went into the body
rows and not the header, because that edit matched nothing and I had not
made it assert; the columns were misaligned until a screenshot showed it.
And the Actions menu opened leftwards from a button at the right edge of
the toolbar, half of it off-screen.
