The tray's Start/Stop already drove nodeService.status/stop/restart, which
had full win32 branches for both startup modes from the Node page work --
so enabling it on Windows is widening two platform gates (the `tray`
capability in preload.js, the window:minimize-to-tray handler in main.js),
not new logic.
Replaced the tray icon: the previous white chevron-in-a-box read as an
envelope at tray size. New icon is a small "M" drawn as mesh nodes and
edges, echoing the app icon's own motif, in the brand blue instead of
plain white so it stays legible on both light and dark taskbars/panels.

package twice
Chromium CVEs are fixed in Electron releases, and a client built against
an old one ships those holes to every user. That is a certain harm; a
build that breaks on a new Electron is a repairable one. build-client.sh
now bumps to the latest on every build, prints the comparison, and lets
the build fail if it cannot cope — the failure is the signal to fix, not
a reason to stay behind. It writes package.json and the lockfile on
purpose: the new pin is meant to be committed. A registry it cannot reach
is a warning, not a failure.
Exercised by pinning back to 42.9.2 and building: "==> Electron 42.9.2 ->
44.1.1", exit 0, electron=44.1.1 in the packaged output. Note npm audit
would have said nothing about any of this — Chromium CVEs fixed in
Electron do not reliably reach the npm advisory database.
Separately, package.json declared linux.target [deb, rpm] with its own
deb/rpm depends, so `npm run dist` built a second package under the same
name. The two had drifted: /opt/MeshBay/meshbay-client against
/opt/meshbay-client/meshbay, and Depends: python3-meshbay-common naming
none of the Electron runtime libraries the real DEBIAN/control lists — it
would have installed cleanly and then refused to start. Nothing in the
tree referenced `npm run dist`, which is why the drift was free to
happen. That config is gone, "dist" delegates to build-client.sh, and
test_desktop_shell.py refuses its return.
`--dir` was re-run with no linux block at all: exit 0, same binary
build-client.sh consumes. It needs appId, productName and files, nothing
else.

Needed for the paired meshbay-hub commit that makes the registration
captcha unconditional (M1): the desktop client renders the same
RegisterPage widget the browser does, which needs its script, its
challenge iframe and its assets to load.
script-src, the new frame-src, and img-src now allow exactly
https://www.google.com and https://www.gstatic.com, and nothing else
external — the hub's own origin is still absent from script-src, so
T3 (nothing the hub returns is executed) is unaffected. This is a
one-time source change: it ships identical in every build via
`files: ["src/**"]` in electron-builder's config, with no build step,
packaging step, or installer action for anyone to perform, and no
setting for an end user to touch.
test_desktop_shell.py updated to pin the exception precisely: the
reCAPTCHA hosts are the *only* external origins allowed anywhere in
the policy, and a bare `https:` scheme is still refused in script-src.
Third security review, finding M1 (Option A, desktop half).

The test reads index.html and sync-ui.js to verify security properties.
Update the paths to match the directory rename from the prior commit.

**Full-screen was denied, and the denial was invisible.** The permission
handler was written from a true sentence — nothing here needs a camera, a
microphone or a location — and implemented as `callback(false)` for everything.
Chromium's own video controls ask for the `fullscreen` permission, so a film
could not be watched full-screen.
What made it hard to find, and what the test now pins: **a denied `fullscreen`
does not reject.** `requestFullscreen()` returns a promise that never settles.
No exception, no console message, nothing in the renderer that mentions a
permission — the button just does nothing. Measured rather than reasoned: the
probe reported `NEVER SETTLED` while the main process, instrumented for one run,
logged `PERMISSION ASKED: fullscreen`. After the fix the same probe reports
`granted` with `document.fullscreenElement` set.
The handler now enumerates what is *granted* — `fullscreen`, and nothing else —
so a camera, a microphone, a location, notifications and MIDI are still refused
and whatever Chromium adds next arrives refused rather than quietly allowed.
`Permissions.query` takes the other handler, so both now answer from the one
list instead of eventually disagreeing.
The old test asserted `callback(false)`, which is to say it locked in the bug.
It is replaced by three: what must stay denied, that `fullscreen` is granted,
and that both handlers read the same list.
**"Save automatically" opened a dialog.** The automatic path required a folder
to have been chosen first, and on a new profile nobody has chosen one — so the
very first download fell through to Save As, which is the one thing the setting
promises not to do. A browser does not make you pick a folder before it will
save a file; the system Downloads folder is the answer when there is no other.
Verified on a fresh profile with a home of its own: no dialog, 1024 bytes on
disk, destination reported as the default (`/home/…/Téléchargements` on this
machine, via the localized XDG directory).
A folder that *was* chosen and has since gone still asks. Silently redirecting
those files is worse than a dialog: someone who picked an external drive wants
to be told it is not there, not to find the film in their home directory a week
later. Settings shows the effective destination either way, and offers "forget"
only for a folder somebody actually chose.
813 tests pass.

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

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