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).

Registration now creates a pending account and sends a 6-digit code via
email; the account activates only after verification. Email changes on
the profile page follow the same flow. Group invitations send a
notification email to the invitee (without revealing their address to
the inviter) containing the invite code and hub link.
Backend: blind HMAC-SHA256 email index for uniqueness without decryption,
mail.py for localhost Postfix delivery, verification endpoints, cleanup
of expired codes and stale pending accounts, startup backfill of
email_hash for existing users.
Frontend: 3-phase register page, inline email change verification on
profile, invite-notify call with status display. All 10 locales updated.

ExplorePage → explore-page.js (static import), LoginPage/RegisterPage/
FirstRunPage → auth-page.js (static import, LoginPage receives onLogin
as a prop), CreateGroupPage/wizard → create-group-page.js (lazy-loaded
via dynamic import(), same pattern as AdminPage/NodePage).
app.js goes from 1803 to 914 lines. webapp.py _ASSETS extended with the
three new files and the previously missing extracted pages. Test fixtures
updated to follow the moved components.

b6f3139 renamed `fit` to `fitAndPin` in chat-app.js and rebound the
resize / orientationchange / visualViewport listeners to it, but
test_the_panel_refits_when_the_viewport_changes still grepped for the old
name and failed. `fit` itself still exists (fitAndPin wraps it), so
test_the_measurement_survives_a_scrolled_page was unaffected.

spinner
Three regressions fixed in ChatPanel:
- Scroll pinning: layout effect now depends on [messages, hasMore] so the
"load older" button appearance triggers a re-pin; setHasMore is called
before setMessages to avoid an intermediate render without the button;
fit() is wrapped in fitAndPin() so panel resizing re-pins the scroll.
- Message loading on group switch: fetch effect depends on the status prop
instead of transportRef.current?.connected to avoid racing with
GroupPage's cleanup; loadedRef resets on fetch failure so a retry works.
- Connecting spinner restored in the Chat tab empty state.
Adds structural regression tests (test_chat_scroll_bottom.py) that lock
the dependency arrays and setState ordering so these invariants break
loudly in CI.

A group's identity stays its UUID. What changes is that "the name is
unique" — until now an unenforced expectation — becomes real, scoped to the
owner account, and the owner's username is surfaced so two groups called
"photos" on different nodes can be told apart.
Hub:
- `groups` gains a functional unique index `uq_groups_owner_name` on
`(admin_id, lower(name))` (model + migration c3d4e5f6a7b8). The migration
pre-flights: if the data already clashes it aborts and lists the
offending (admin_id, name) pairs rather than renaming anyone's group.
meshbay.org checked clean.
- `create_group` trims the name, rejects blank (422) and an owner-scoped
case-insensitive clash (409), with an IntegrityError backstop for the
race, and returns `owner_username`.
- `owner_username` added to `/v1/groups/mine`, `GET /v1/groups` (local
rows), `POST /v1/groups/{id}/join`, `GET /v1/admin/groups`.
SPA:
- new `static/group-name.js` — `<GroupName name owner [inline]>` renders the
name with the `@owner` handle on a smaller grey line under it.
- used in the sidebar, the group-page header, Explore cards, the Admin
groups table, and cross-group Search (via a widened `cacheGroupIndex`
carrying the owner). Delete/leave confirmations show `name@owner` inline.
- federated Explore rows show `@<source_hub>` instead of an account.
Design record and the locked decisions: ~/next/groupnames.md (out of repo).
MNP unchanged. Tests: test_group_name_unique.py, test_group_name_migration.py.

A new General tab in Administration carries one switch, allow_public_groups,
stored in a hub_settings key/value table (runtime-editable, unlike hub.toml).
Default is on; an absent row means on, so an upgrade changes nothing.
Enforcement is server-side on every hub-mediated path, not just the SPA:
- create_group refuses visibility=public (403), staff included
- list_public_groups the directory returns nothing (local + federated)
- join_group open-joining a public group is refused
- group_online_nodes a non-member of a public group is handed no node
- signaling.webrtc_offer drops the "node hosts an open group" fallback
- federation.export_directory advertises nothing to peer hubs
The switch is read live, so flipping it back restores every path. Existing
members of a group that predates the switch keep their membership row and
their access — this is plan A, not a purge. GET /v1/hub/info exposes the
flag (unauthenticated) so the create-group form and the sidebar's "Public
groups" link render correctly.
Also in the admin Groups tab: a Revoke action beside Suspend. Suspend is the
reversible hub flag; Revoke calls POST /v1/admin/revoke, which sets
status=revoked and broadcasts a signed revocation every node enforces
(denylist + dropped live sessions). It is confirm-guarded and names the group.
And a message fix the revoke work surfaced: group_online_nodes, join_group and
webrtc_offer answered "Group is suspended" for any non-active status. They now
report the real state, so a member of a revoked group is told "Group is
revoked" rather than something reversible-sounding.
Tests: test_public_groups_toggle.py (10) covers the switch end to end and the
five enforcement paths; test_revocation.py gains the status-message assertion.

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.

Implements the client half of docs/musicbay.md against MNP 0.8:
- music-app.js: album grid (grouped by artist -> album, from index-time
artist/album fields) or flat folder view, per-group localStorage
toggle like Videos. MusicBrainz (music_meta_req) is only looked up
when a track has no embedded cover at all — well-tagged files never
trigger a network call, unlike Videos where TMDB is unconditional.
Reuses video-app.js's MediaThumb/LazyTile (now exported) rather than
duplicating the chunk-path thumbnail decode + virtualization.
- music-player.js: the persistent player bar — queue, shuffle (Fisher-
Yates, keeps the current track in place when toggled), repeat (off/
all/one), volume (localStorage), prev/next, a one-track prefetch
cache. No MSE, no node-side streaming: a track is downloaded and
decrypted once via file-utils.js's pipelinedDownload, same chunk
pipeline Files already uses, then played from a blob URL.
- group-page.js: owns musicQueue/musicbrainzConfig state and renders
MusicPlayerBar outside the tab-switched area — deliberately, so
playback survives navigating to Chat/Files, the same reasoning the
video/preview modals are shell-owned rather than app-owned.
- apps.js: registers "music". transport.js: fetchMusicMeta (keyed by
path, same reordering-hazard fix as fetchMediaMeta),
setMusicbrainzConfig/setMusicbrainzEnabled (signed ops, mirroring
TMDB's), and the three new ack handlers. group-settings.js: a
MusicBrainz settings section (contact string, per-group toggle) —
the existing Applications checklist already picks up "music" for
free, per apps.md's own claim.
- icon.js: music/pause/skip-next/skip-prev/shuffle/repeat/volume,
drawn in the same stroked style as the existing set.
- i18n: group.tab_music, the music.* and settings_node.musicbrainz_*
keys, translated (not just copied) across all ten locales, Polish
carrying full one/few/many/other plural forms for music.n_tracks.
- webapp.py's _ASSETS, test_hook_ordering.py's STATIC_FILES and
test_transport_contracts.py's SPLIT_FILES gain the two new files.
Full suite (common + hub + node): 1116 passed, no regressions.
`npm run sync-ui` in meshbay-client confirmed both files copied.

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.

MSE only decodes AAC/Opus, so copying a source's real audio codec left
non-AAC files silently unplayable in-browser (E-AC-3 additionally made
ffmpeg itself refuse to write the fragmented MP4 header). Audio is now
always transcoded to AAC and downmixed to stereo — multichannel AAC is
accepted by ffprobe/VLC but silently rejected by some browsers' MSE
decoder once real fragments are appended, which forces the SourceBuffer
out of its MediaSource with no explicit error. Video stays copy-only.
Also: report a clear client-side error instead of a bare STREAM_END when
ffmpeg exits nonzero before producing any output, add video-element/
MediaSource error logging on the client for the next time this class of
bug needs diagnosing, and fix a hub test that had grown too broad a scan
window after an earlier, unrelated transport.js change.

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.

- test_transport_contracts: CreateGroupPage was refactored into a
routing wrapper; assertions now read CreateGroupFormSimple
- test_task_lifetime: _spawn now uses an _on_done wrapper instead of
a bare self._tasks.discard callback; assertion checks both parts
- test_video_buffer_ceiling: target the real updateend handler, not
the settled() utility; add awaitingInitRef to the MSE harness scope
- test_video_seek: silence debug console.log in window_leak harness
so it does not pollute the JSON output

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

**The chat tab was 8px too tall, at every window size.** The panel is sized from
JS to `viewport - top - 16`, which puts its bottom 16px above the fold — but it
sits inside `.main`, which adds 24px of padding below it. Eight pixels of
document past the window, whatever the window. Measured at 700, 900 and 1200:
`scrollHeight` 708, 908, 1208.
This is the second one of these — the sign-in card was `.page-center` and
`.layout` each reserving `100vh - 52px` — so it is now measured in the suite
rather than reasoned about. `tests/harness/scroll_probe.py` renders the real
markup against the real stylesheet and **runs the real `fit()` lifted out of
`app.js`**: a copy of the formula in a test would go on passing after the
original changed, which is exactly the bug being guarded.
The fix does not encode 24 anywhere. The first pass runs as before, then the
leftover is measured and taken off, so anything added below the panel later is
absorbed the same way. Now `scrollHeight == innerHeight` at all three heights,
nothing below the fold, and the panel still fills the room it has — that last
one has its own test, because shrinking the chat to 240px would satisfy every
other assertion here and be useless.
The Settings tab was measured too and is **not** a bug: it fits at 1200px and
overflows only when its content is genuinely taller than the window.
**Group creation asked one question twice.** Visibility and admission were
separate selectors that could only ever be set together — picking Public reached
over and set the policy — and two of the four combinations are meaningless. The
API already refused public+invite with a 422, so the form could build a request
that could not succeed. Private+open was accepted and should not have been: a
group anyone may join that nobody can find is a listing with the listing
removed, since joining goes through the node and there is no link to pass
around.
So: one selector, "who can join", and the request derives the rest. The API now
refuses the other impossible pair as well, with a message that says which way to
resolve it. Six locale strings the visibility box owned are deleted rather than
left unread in ten files, and the two surviving descriptions now say what each
choice means for who can *find* the group — with the word "public" gone from the
page, nothing else would have said it, and someone would publish a group without
meaning to.
865 tests pass.

the widget
**"Zone sensible" said nothing.** The heading is now the name of the action in
it — "Quitter le groupe", or "Supprimer le groupe" for the owner, who sees a
different button. Worth stating because it is not quite what was asked for: a
fixed "Quitter le groupe" would have sat above a delete button for whoever owns
the group. The red goes with it; only the button is red, which is where the
warning belongs. `members.danger_title` is gone from all ten locales rather than
left behind unread.
**A folder name no longer ends in a slash.** The folder icon in the cell beside
it already says what it is.
**The transfers widget turns green while transfers run.** The badge counts them,
but a count has to be read; colour is what carries from across the room, which
is the point of a widget in the nav bar rather than on the page. Derived from
the live list on every render, so there is no state that can forget to clear
when the last transfer ends.
The class is set in `app.js` and coloured in `style.css` — either alone does
nothing and neither fails loudly, so there is a test for each half.
848 tests pass.

settings tab
**Joining a group could hang.** Reported after a first attempt that never
finished and a later one that worked — the shape of a network wait with no
deadline, and there were two.
Signaling here is non-trickle: the offer is not sent until ICE gathering says
it is done. A STUN server that is slow, filtered, or resolved through a DNS that
is not answering means `icegatheringstatechange` never reaches `complete`, and
`connect()` never returns. Same shape as the fullscreen denial fixed yesterday:
a promise that never settles leaves no error to find. Gathering now has four
seconds, after which the offer goes out with what it has — host candidates are
already there, which is enough on a LAN, and giving up instead would turn a slow
STUN server into a refusal to connect.
The second: `hub:fetch` in the desktop client had no timeout, so a host that
accepts a connection and then says nothing holds the request for as long as the
OS allows. `hub:probe` had one; the handler that carries signaling did not. Now
thirty seconds — longer than the hub's own fifteen-second signaling wait, so it
cannot abort a call that was about to succeed — and it says the hub did not
answer rather than "fetch failed".
**Resume positions belonged to the machine, not the account.** Stored as
`mb:pos:<file>`, so a second account signing in on the same computer was offered
"resume where you left off" in a film it had never opened. Wrong on its own
terms, and a small disclosure of what the other person watches, since the offer
only appears for files someone has actually been through. The account is in the
key now. Positions written before this are deleted rather than re-keyed: there
is no record of whose they were, and guessing hands them to whoever signs in
next, which is the bug.
**The staggered rules in the members table.** `display: flex` on the actions
`<td>` — a flex table cell stops being a table cell, so it no longer stretches
to its row and its bottom border is drawn wherever its own content ends.
Measured: in a row whose other cells were `top 76, height 40`, that cell was
`top 77, height 30`, its rule nine pixels above the rest. It is a table cell
again, held open by a zero-width strut so the owner's row — which has no remove
button — stays as tall as the others. Every cell now shares its row's top and
bottom exactly, at 420px and 900px.
**Members became Settings.** It was a list with three unrelated forms stacked
above it, laid out with inline styles on whichever element needed them, and the
group's own controls somewhere else entirely — leaving or deleting a group sat
in the page header beside the title. Now one tab in sections: invitations,
operator pairing, your devices on this node, leaving or deleting, and the roster
last, since it is the only part with no upper bound.
One consequence worth stating: the tab bar no longer waits for the node.
Membership is hub-side, and gating it on a live connection would have made
"leave this group" unreachable exactly when a node is down — which is when
someone most wants it. Files and chat still need the node and say so.
**A download button in the viewer**, beside the close button and in the same
style, for both the video player and the file preview.
844 tests pass.

**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.

All three came from the operator running the application on Ubuntu GNOME. None
would have been found by anything already in the suite.
**A second copy of the hub address.** `keyderive.js` carried
`const HUB = '' // same origin` — true of a page the hub served, false of one
loaded from a package, where the origin is `app://meshbay` and `/v1/users/register`
resolves against the application's own protocol handler. **Sign-up and sign-in,
the first two things anybody does, failed with "Not found."** The seam was
changed in `app.js` and in the signalling call and this was missed: the same
shape as the duplicate `MNP_VERSION` in `protocol.py`, a second copy of a
constant that is harmless until the context changes. `test_hub_address_seam.py`
refuses any file that decides where the hub is, and any `fetch('/v1/…')`
relative to the page origin.
**A window handler reading a variable another path reassigns.** Changing the hub
closes one window and opens another; `closed` arrives *after* the replacement is
assigned, so the outgoing window nulled the reference to the incoming one and
its `ready-to-show` crashed on it — a modal "A JavaScript error occurred in the
main process". Every handler now belongs to the window it was created with. The
CDP test wrote `config.json` in advance, so it never took the one path that
creates a second window; it does now, starting from an empty user-data dir.
**A first run that could not be undone.** The hub address was accepted on
anything URL-shaped and there was no way to change it afterwards — the prompt
only appears when none is set, so a typo meant editing JSON by hand. `https`
typed at a hub speaking `http` produced `TypeError: fetch failed`, which names
nothing. Now: the address is probed before being written, failures say which
URL and why ("does not speak https. If this hub is on your own machine, it is
probably http"), Settings can change it, and Electron's
"Error invoking remote method" wrapper is stripped from what a person reads.
Verified on the operator's desktop: **safeStorage really uses the GNOME
keyring** — Settings reports `gnome-libsecret`, and `secrets.bin` is written
0600 with Chromium's `v11` prefix, the marker for keyring-backed encryption
(the fixed-key fallback writes `v10`). Headless, the same code reports
`unavailable` and refuses to store rather than downgrading in silence, which is
now explained in Settings instead of shown as a bare word.
Unrelated but found while testing: `test_locales.py` assigned to
`globalThis.navigator`, which is read-only from Node 22. The client's build
already requires Node 22+, so the first CI machine configured for it would have
failed these tests for no visible reason. 809 tests pass on Node 18 and Node 24.

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.

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.

Reported: after an hour of watching a film, every action answers "token expired
or invalid", with signing out and back in as the only way on. Reopening the tab
the next day did the same.
The access token lasts an hour and the refresh token thirty days, and nothing
used the second one. `hubFetch` reported a 401 like any other error, and
watching a film is precisely an hour in which the hub hears nothing at all,
because the video travels over WebRTC. So the token aged out with no request to
notice, and a tab reopened the next morning presented a stale token with a
perfectly good refresh token sitting beside it in localStorage.
Underneath was the reason it could not be recovered from. The hub *rotates*:
the refresh endpoint revokes the token presented, returns a replacement, and
treats a revoked one presented again as theft, revoking the whole family. The
client kept only the access token out of that response. So the refresh token was
spent on first use and the second attempt did not merely fail — it destroyed the
family. Which is exactly the reported symptom.
Renewal now happens on a margin, on returning to the tab, on mount, and on a 401
with the request replayed. Concurrent renewals share one request: two 401s
racing would otherwise present the same refresh token twice, and the hub cannot
tell that from theft, so the remedy would have been worse than the fault. A
refusal signs out cleanly rather than leaving a session that fails every call
while looking signed in.
The lifetime goes to four hours, which is not what makes long sessions work —
renewal is — but is what someone has to notice by if renewal itself breaks. An
hour was less than a feature film. Twelve was considered and declined: it widens
the window in which a leaked token cannot be turned off, and it lets the renewal
path go a whole day between uses, which is how it came to be broken here without
anyone noticing. Production sets this in its own hub.toml, so both moved.
The tests run the shipped code against a hub that enforces rotation, because a
stub that accepted the same refresh token twice would have passed against the
broken client. Checked that dropping the rotated token reproduces the revoked
family, so the guard is guarding something.
Also widens the orphan-setter rule to ignore `setX` functions declared in the
module: `setAuth` is not a hook setter, and a rule that cries wolf is one
somebody eventually silences. Verified it still catches a real orphan.

Reported: on mobile you see only the right-hand edge of the panel, without the
content. Measured, before anything was changed:
320 px viewport -> panel at -138..192, 138 px off the left
360 px -> -98..232
412 px -> -46..284
The panel is 330 px wide and anchored to the right edge of its button — but
that button is not at the right edge of the screen, since the bell and the user
menu come after it. What falls off is the left-hand side, which is where the
file names are, so what stayed on screen was a strip of progress bars belonging
to nothing.
Narrowing it would not have helped: the overflow comes from where the right
edge is pinned, not from the width. Below the existing 768 px breakpoint the
panel is anchored to the viewport instead, full width on a phone and capped at
420 px on a tablet, where stretching two filenames across 750 px would be
silly. Desktop keeps its 330 px against the button.
The interesting part is how it was found. The responsive tests read numbers out
of the stylesheet and said, in their own docstring, that a layout could not be
measured because the suite had no browser. It has one now — Chrome, from the
video work — so layout_probe.py renders the real stylesheet at a given width and
returns rectangles. `width: 330px` was never the thing worth asserting on.
An iframe carries the viewport, because a headless window will not go below
about 500 px, and one browser measures every width: launching one per test put
three minutes on the suite against twenty-six seconds for all of them. Checked
that the new tests fail with the rule removed — three of them do — and that
they pass with it back.

`const a = useCallback(fn, [b])` evaluates `[b]` where it is written, so a `b`
further down the component is still in its temporal dead zone. ReferenceError on
every render, before anything the component does can run — and the symptom is
the component simply not appearing. Clicking a video did nothing at all: no
picture, no error on screen, nothing in the node's log because nothing was ever
requested. It reached production.
Nothing caught it. `node --check` passes, the code is well-formed. Worse, the
MSE harness extracts the player functions into an order of its own and therefore
*reordered* them before running — quietly repairing the one class of defect it
was best placed to catch. It sorts by position in the file now, and
test_hook_ordering.py checks the property directly across the whole SPA. Both
the rule and the harness are checked against the layout that actually shipped.
test_video_seek.py covers the rest of seeking, and window_leak.mjs forces the
race that made the third seek hang: the whole in-flight window arriving while
`reinitAt` is still awaiting. Before, the player is left believing eight
segments are in flight and grants nothing; after, the window comes back. A run
that happens to work proves nothing about a race, which is the point of forcing
the worst case rather than trusting a longer session.

`Cache-Control: no-cache` requires a browser to revalidate, but it only binds
one that asks. A browser that cached app.js before that header existed applies
heuristic freshness instead — a fraction of the file's age, which for a file
dated weeks ago is days — and never asks. It then runs an old player against a
new node.
That cost most of a session. A phone kept a player without the read-ahead bound
and filled the browser's buffer ceiling at 106 MB, the exact symptom the bound
had been written to remove, for an hour after the bounded player went live. A
fix that is written, tested, deployed and served, and still not what runs, is
indistinguishable from a fix that does not work.
The whole module graph now lives under `/a/<content-hash>/`. A path prefix
rather than a query string, because relative imports inherit it: `app.js`
reaching for `./i18n.js` gets the build it was written against, and never a
mixture of two — which does not render a stale page, it fails to link. The URL
changes with the content, so those may be cached hard.
`sw.js` stays at the root. Its scope is its own path, and under the prefix it
would no longer control the pages whose downloads it exists to intercept.

A 500 MB film loaded about 100 MB and hung on "buffering" for good. 100 MB is
not a number in our code: it is where the browser stops. ffmpeg remuxes with
`-c copy`, so the bytes on the wire are the file's own, and credit granted per
append meant taking them as fast as the network allowed — which for a film is
very much faster than watching it. The SourceBuffer ceiling arrived in the
first minute.
Past it every append was refused, and the refusal was unrecoverable: a refused
append fires no `updateend`, `updateend` was where credit was granted, so the
node sent nothing and no segment arrived to retry the append. Every wakeup the
pipeline had was downstream of the append that had just failed. Playback
continuing — the one thing that frees room — woke nothing at all.
Credit now follows the buffer instead of the writes. `pump()` is the only
place it is granted, it keeps `STREAM_WINDOW` segments in flight while less
than `BUFFER_AHEAD_S` of film is held past the playhead, and it is driven by a
one-second clock and by playback progress, never by arriving data. Buffering
by time makes a two-hour film cost what a two-minute clip costs.
A window rather than a debt, and this took a second measurement to get right:
accumulating a credit per append and releasing the balance when the buffer
finally drained sent six megabytes in one burst, overshot by a minute of film,
then said nothing for forty-six seconds. Measured in Chrome against real
fragmented MP4.
Two smaller things found on the way. `updateend` fires for `remove()` as well
as `appendBuffer()`, so crediting from it paid the node for the player's own
evictions. And a viewer that is deliberately far enough ahead grants nothing
for minutes, which the node read as a closed tab — it now sends `stream_more`
with n=0, which grants no room but proves someone is there.
The first version of the test modelled the credit loop and passed while the
player still hung: a model written by whoever wrote the fix agrees with it by
construction. `tests/harness/mse_harness.mjs` lifts the real functions out of
app.js as text and runs them against a SourceBuffer that has a ceiling. What is
modelled is the browser.

Chat opens on the newest hundred messages, loads fifty older on demand with the
reading position anchored — the distance from the *bottom*, since everything
above the viewport just grew — and follows new messages only when the reader was
already at the end. Day separators, sender grouping, an unread marker, and a
jump-to-latest pill. Messages are keyed by id: index keys plus prepending makes
Preact reuse the wrong bubbles.
A presence dot per group in the sidebar, three states, each backed by something:
the hub's registry, or a connection this browser made or failed to make. Never
colour alone — red and green are the pair colour-blind readers cannot separate —
so each dot carries a title and an aria-label.
Profile is split out of Settings: identity, node link, pinned node identities and
account deletion. Mixing them put an irreversible button two scrolls under a
theme picker. The create-group page loses its centred 520 px card, which left
190 px of margin either side, and its two button panels become a radio group —
a button conveys no chosen state to a screen reader, and side by side they read
as two independent actions rather than one either/or.
The Files toolbar shows its actions as icon buttons the moment Select is on,
disabled when they do not apply rather than appearing and vanishing. On a phone
the right-hand group could not wrap and ran 130 px off the screen.
Streamed downloads no longer freeze after one chunk. `registration.active` says
a worker exists, not that this page is controlled by it — and an uncontrolled
page's requests never reach its fetch handler, so the worker took the stream and
was never asked for it, leaving `writer.write()` waiting on backpressure that
would never lift. The page now requires control and the worker confirms it
actually served the request before the sink is trusted.
Fixed on the way: `setActionsOpen` outlived the state it belonged to and threw
on every Files action; the chat scrollbar stopped short of the bottom; the
owner's row sat lower than the rest; About showed a version hardcoded two
releases ago.

Leaving is its own endpoint rather than a relaxation of the owner's removal
check — an authorization rule with an exception in it is the one that gets read
wrong later. The owner cannot leave: the group would be left with nobody able
to admit, edit or delete it, which is the answer removal and account deletion
already give.
Public groups are capped at ten live ones per owner. They are the ones that
cost other people something — listed in Discover, joinable by anyone — so a
script that opens hundreds fills the directory for everybody. Private groups
are invisible to non-members and are not capped. Hub staff are exempt; the cap
is anti-spam, not a rule about running an instance. Creation is the only place
it can be checked, and deliberately so, because PATCH refuses to change
visibility at all.
A group is now listed only once a node has announced that it hosts it. Before
that it has no files, no key and nothing to connect to, so showing it to a
member produces a name they cannot open and cannot be told why; its owner still
sees it while they set the node up. `meshbay-hub prune-groups` collects the
ones that never got a node, meant for cron, with --dry-run. The migration
backfills hosted_at from created_at: without that the first run would have
deleted every live group.
Presence rides on the group list itself, read from the signaling registry the
hub already keeps — no poll, no timer. It says a node is connected *to the hub*,
which is not a promise that this browser can reach it and not something a
dishonest hub could not fake; the client downgrades it on a connection it tried
and failed, which is the evidence that concerns the reader.

French, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese,
German, Italian, Dutch and Polish, all in the formal register. `hub`,
`node` and `GEK` stay in English: they name the CLI, node.toml and the
docs, and translating them would cut the interface off from everything an
operator reads and types.
Catalogues move out of i18n.js into locales/, one file per language,
fetched with a dynamic import. A visitor downloads their language plus
English as a fallback — about 36 KB rather than the ~180 KB that ten
inlined catalogues would have cost everyone. i18n.js keeps only the
loader, so the first render now waits for initLocale().
Three things the old code got wrong, none of them visible until there was
a second language:
- Resolution trimmed a tag to its base before matching, so a browser
reporting pt-BR looked for a `pt` catalogue that does not exist and fell
back to English. Matching is now exact first, then by base language.
- Counted strings were single strings, so Polish could not express
1 plik / 2 pliki / 5 plików at all. t() selects through
Intl.PluralRules; en.js gains the same treatment, which incidentally
fixes "1 files".
- Interpolation used String.replace, which reads `$&` in the replacement.
A file named rap$&sody.mp3 rendered corrupted in its own delete dialog.
Five strings were still hardcoded in app.js — the group name placeholder
and the four visibility/join-policy descriptions — and are now keyed.
test_locales.py holds the nine translations to the shape of en.js: same
keys, a counted string stays counted everywhere, every plural entry covers
each category Intl actually produces for that language, and the
{placeholders} survive translation. Verified failing first, against a
catalogue with a key removed, a placeholder dropped and the Polish `few`
form deleted.
The language menu also grew from one entry to ten, which overran a short
viewport inside a dropdown that clipped instead of scrolling.

**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.

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.

Downloading a selection of twenty files meant twenty Save As dialogs,
which is the wrong answer for the feature that had just been built.
Settings → Downloads now offers saving automatically, and that is the
default; asking every time stays available for people who want it.
The correction worth recording: a web page cannot be given a filesystem
path and cannot read one either. There is no ~/Downloads to configure and
nothing to type, on any operating system — which is also why none of this
will need changing on Windows. What a browser grants is a handle to a
folder the user picked in a dialog, so that is what the setting keeps:
picked once, stored in IndexedDB, re-confirmed once a session because the
grant comes back as a claim rather than a permission. Where no folder has
been granted, and in Firefox and Safari where none can be, files go to
the browser's own download folder — which on most machines is the folder
that was meant all along.
Automatic saving has one risk a dialog does not: it can silently replace
a file. It does not — a taken name gets a suffix before the extension,
`clip (2).mp4`, so a download folder does not fill up with files the
system no longer recognises. That, and the default, are what
test_downloads.py pins.

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.

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 uploader read a 48 KB slice, sent it, and waited for the node to
acknowledge it before reading the next one. That caps throughput at one
chunk per round trip regardless of available bandwidth, and it is worse
than the arithmetic suggests: the sender is idle for almost the whole
time, so SCTP's congestion window never opens either, and the transport
stays slow even when the link is not.
Measured against the real node over a 100 ms path (netem on loopback):
48 KB chunks, one at a time 0.16 MB/s
48 KB chunks, 32 in flight 3.47 MB/s
On loopback with no latency both are ~32 MB/s, which is why nothing here
ever caught it: the local end-to-end run cannot see a round-trip problem.
transport.uploadFile() now keeps a window of chunks in flight and matches
acks by arrival, with the node's own ordering rule as the guard — a
DataChannel is ordered and reliable, and the node refuses any chunk that
is not the one it expects next. It pauses when the channel's buffered
amount gets high, so the progress bar keeps reporting what the node has
taken rather than what the browser has queued. Both callers, the Files
panel and chat attachments, go through it.
The end-to-end harness grew an opt-in benchmark behind MESHBAY_BENCH=1
that removes its own files afterwards, and it taught me something about
the harness rather than the code: it took an unsolicited index_sync push
for an upload ack, because unlike app.js it had no place to put one.

A description could only be set the moment a group was created, so every
group made before anyone thought of one stayed blank for good. The owner
can now edit it from the group's page, and PATCH /v1/groups/{id} takes it.
That endpoint takes the description and nothing else, deliberately. The
name, the visibility and the join policy are the terms members joined on;
a private group that can quietly become public is not the group they
agreed to be in. Changing those needs a decision about who gets told, not
a field on a form — there is a test saying so.
Separately, the legacy operator key is gone. `admin_pk_ed25519` in
node.toml named the operator before the roster existed and was kept so
that an existing deployment would keep working; nothing uses it, and a
second source of node authority is not something to carry around out of
politeness. Authority is the roster, read fresh on every check.
It is removed rather than ignored: a config that still names the key gets
a warning at startup pointing at the file. Dropping it in silence would
refuse invites and file deletion with a signature error that looks like a
bug somewhere else — which is exactly how finding M3 presented.
Two tests were verifying admin operations by naming a key in the context,
which was the legacy path. They now pair an operator into a roster, the
way an operator does. The authority test anchored on the deleted function
and passed vacuously once it disappeared; it states the invariant against
the verifier and the daemon instead.
Also defined .btn-secondary, used in four places and styled in none.

The connection log took the name from a join on `users`, and deletion
tombstones that row — so every record belonging to a deleted account
reported `deleted-3f9a1c`, which is the one answer that helps nobody. The
log is kept for a legal retention period precisely so it can say who did
what; losing the name at deletion kept the data and lost the point of it.
`ip_logs.username` is written as the account is erased, and stays NULL
while the account is alive, where the join is better because it cannot go
stale. The admin view prefers the stored name when there is one: the join
still answers after deletion, just with the tombstone.
Releasing the username for re-registration and keeping it in the log are
separate things, and the guide now says so.
On the node side, the pre-proof audit line records the username the
session already knew, instead of leaving the column empty.

pairing form
Moving the invite form above the member list cut both out of MembersPanel and
pasted them into AdminPage, where `doInvite`, `members`, `adminId` and
`inviteCode` do not exist. A standard member saw an empty Members tab, the
group owner saw only a pairing form, and the hub's own Users tab referenced
four undefined names.
The pairing form outstaying its welcome is a second bug and an older one.
`is_node_admin` compares the connecting account with the account that owns the
node — it says nothing about whether *this browser's key* was ever paired, which
is the thing pairing changes and the thing that lets you sign an invite. So the
form showed for an operator who paired months ago, accepted a fresh code,
reported success, and stayed exactly where it was. The node already reports the
roster role in `join_result`; the transport keeps it, and the form appears only
when this identity is not an operator key yet.
Also dropped a clause from the pairing hint: the code never passing through the
hub is worth saying, the theory behind it is not.
test_spa_ordering.py gets three checks for this class of bug — a cut-and-paste
between components is invisible to every other test we have.

Four things were wrong, and they compounded: a busy chat produced one row
per message, muting a group did nothing at all, there was no way to clear
the list, and the one person guaranteed to know about a message — its
author — was told about it.
The author bug was a name mismatch across two processes. The node sent
chat_notify without saying who wrote the message, so the hub used the
node's own token subject, which is the operator's account. The skip
therefore matched the operator and no one else: everybody was notified of
their own messages, and the operator was notified of nobody's. The node
now names the author and the hub reads that field.
Muting lived in the browser's localStorage and nothing ever read it, so
the checkbox was decoration. It is a column on group_members now, checked
where the notification is created — a notification nobody wants is not
written at all.
Chat keeps a single row per (user, kind, group) whose date moves and whose
read flag clears, so a conversation is one line saying when it last spoke.
Clicking it opens the group and dismisses it; joining a group dismisses
its invitation; and DELETE /v1/notifications clears the lot.
The hub deploy now runs alembic. create_all() only creates missing tables,
so group_members.muted never arrived on the running hub and /v1/groups/mine
answered 500 — worth catching in the script rather than in a browser.
Verified end to end against the deployed hub and node: the author receives
nothing, the other member receives exactly one, carrying its group_id.

Both go through the same erasure, so there is one description of what happens
rather than two that drift.
Gone: credentials, email, node key, group memberships, notifications, refresh
tokens, node registrations. The username is released.
Kept, on purpose and stated in the UI: the row itself, emptied, and the IP log
that points at it. Those logs exist for a year to answer legal requests, and a
log that can no longer say whose connection it recorded keeps the data while
losing the only thing it is for. So the account becomes a tombstone rather than a
hole in the table.
Out of reach, also stated: files uploaded to nodes, and the identity keys nodes
pinned. Those are on machines the hub does not command, and only their operators
can remove them — `member unpin` and a delete on their own disk. Saying so in the
confirmation matters more than the button.
Owning groups blocks deletion, with the list. Cascading would delete other
people's groups out from under them; the account holder can hand them over or
delete them first, deliberately.
Self-deletion re-checks the passphrase. A live token may be a borrowed laptop or
a tab left open, and it is not consent to something irreversible. Admin deletion
requires admin rather than moderator: suspension is the reversible moderation
tool and stays one click away.
A deleted account's access token stops working at once — the status check already
refuses anything but "active", which the tests now pin down, because refresh
tokens being gone would otherwise leave up to an hour of usable session.
Tests: 8 covering what survives and what does not, plus a db_session fixture for
assertions that cannot honestly be made through the API.

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.

Argon2id memory 64 → 128 MB. Memory is the lever, not time: it caps how many
guesses a card can hold at once, so the ceiling on one high-end GPU moves from
roughly 4k to roughly 2k guesses/s and its 24 GB fits ~187 lanes instead of ~375.
Measured through the vendored build: 640 ms, against 322 ms at 64 MB.
While measuring the real cost of a sign-in, found the SPA deriving the bundle key
twice — once for the key pair kept for the session, then again inside
decryptBundle() for the local bundle. At these parameters that is 0.6 s of pure
waste. Measured now, end to end:
auth_key (PBKDF2 600k) 239 ms
bundle v1 (PBKDF2 600k) 240 ms legacy, until every bundle is upgraded
bundle v2 (Argon2id 128MB) 650 ms
-----------------------------------
sign-in 1 129 ms (889 ms once no v1 bundles remain)
Once per sign-in, and only then: reopening a group, downloading, streaming and
reloading the page all reuse the key, which lives in IndexedDB from login.
Also bounds two waits in the node's hub WebSocket, found because the node went
silent again mid-deploy. It had reconnected after the hub restart, sent its auth
frame, and waited for a reply that never came — `ws.recv()` had no timeout, so a
hub that accepts a socket and then says nothing for a few seconds while starting
up parks the task forever: node running, logging nothing, invisible to everyone.
The auth exchange now times out at 15 s, connect at 15 s, and a refused auth
retries with a fresh token instead of ending the task for good.
QE harness signs in once per account and reuses the token — several clients there
stand for several browsers of one person, and what tells them apart is which keys
they hold, not which token, while the hub quite rightly rate-limits repeated
logins from one address.
Tests: 341, plus the live workflow.

Two corrections to yesterday's judgement, in the order they matter.
**The toggle is gone.** Asked to make the remote key backup optional, I shipped a
setting whose "off" position meant: no second browser, ever, and clearing your
storage destroys the account. I wrote the warning that says so without drawing
the conclusion. A control whose only effect is to break the ordinary case is not
a control, and removing an exposure by removing the feature is not a fix. Every
browser backs its keys up again, unconditionally.
**The exposure is fixed where it actually lives: the KDF.** The keypair bundle
rests on every node whose group its owner joins, protected by the passphrase
alone (finding C4). It used PBKDF2-SHA512 at 600k — compute-only, which is
exactly what a GPU eats. Measured on this machine: PBKDF2 600k costs 241 ms and
Argon2id 64 MB/t=3 costs 322 ms, near enough the same honest work, except only
one of them forces an attacker to find 64 MB per guess.
So the bundle key is now Argon2id 64 MB / t=3 / p=1, via a vendored WebAssembly
build (no external host — the CSP forbids one, and 12.2 will tighten it further).
Parameters chosen by measurement through that build: 19 MB is OWASP's floor at
118 ms, 256 MB is 1.3 s and too slow for a phone, 64 MB sits where a login should.
What this buys, stated honestly: cracking a bundle yields the owner's identity
keys, and with them content on OTHER nodes and the ability to sign as them — not
the content on the operator's own node, which they host in the clear by design.
Argon2id raises that price steeply; it does not remove it, and a weak passphrase
still loses. Hence the floor raised to 12 characters and ~60 bits in the same
breath, which can only be enforced client-side: with the password split (T1) the
hub never sees a passphrase.
Migration is automatic and invisible. Bundles carry an "MBK2" marker; the old
form is still readable, and is re-encrypted the first time a browser backs it up.
Both keys are derived at sign-in, because which one a bundle needs is only known
once it is read and the passphrase is deliberately not kept around.
Two implementations of the KDF now exist — the browser's WASM and argon2-cffi in
QE — so a parity test holds them byte-identical. A disagreement would not look
like an error; it would look like an account nobody can open.
keypair_bundle_delete stays, without a UI. It is the mechanism behind withdrawing
your data from a node, exercised end to end, and it will belong to a deliberate
"forget me on this node" action rather than a setting that quietly disables
multi-device.
Verified against the live deployment: the full workflow passes, including
recovering keys on a second client from the passphrase alone.
Tests: 341.

The mechanism was already there — the encrypted keypair bundle goes to the node
after a first successful connection, and any client holding the password can
recover it — but nothing exercised it. e2e.py never pushed a bundle, so the case
that matters to an ordinary user was the one case never tested.
It now does what app.js does: backs the member's keys up to the node, then opens
a second client carrying nothing but a username and a password. Against the live
deployment that client recovers its identity keys, is recognised as the same
person with no second code, gets the same group key, and browses the group.
Also guards the ordering this depends on: the keypair bundle must be fetched
before joinGroup() runs, or a browser that did not register has no key to sign
the join with — invisible on the browser that did register, broken on every
other one.

join_request signs a transcript over the node key and the node nonce, and runs
before the GEK proof — a first-time member has no key to prove with. Both values
were read further down, beside the proof that also uses them, so by the time
joinGroup() ran neither was set and every invited member got "Handshake
incomplete — reconnect and retry".
They are now recorded the moment the challenge arrives.
Third bug of the same shape found in a browser, and the reason is worth writing
down: QE/deploy/e2e.py cannot catch any of them. It is a second implementation of
the client, written in the right order by construction, so it passes while the
SPA fails. It proves the protocol; it proves nothing about app.js.
So this adds ordering guards over transport.js — source-level, which is not how
one would normally test behaviour, but it is what sees this class of mistake:
- node_pk and nonce_node are captured before joinGroup() runs
- the join happens before the GEK proof
- the ack still verifies the key the challenge announced
Verified the way the suite requires: each fails against the source as it was, on
the ordering assertion rather than on a missing marker.
e2e.py also waits for the node to re-register rather than reporting "no nodes" at
whoever just restarted the hub.
Tests: 337 across the three packages.

Phase 11.5.10.
POST /v1/nodes/announce accepted any pk_node with no proof the announcer held
the matching private key, so a user could register a node record carrying
someone else's node key, and records accumulated without limit.
The announcer now signs a domain-separated message binding the key to their
account — meshbay:node_announce:{user_id}:{pk_node}:{timestamp} — reusing the
shape already proven by /v1/nodes/auth, so a signature for one can never
satisfy the other. Same 60-second window.
Re-announcing the same key now updates the existing record in place instead of
creating a new row.
Three test helpers had to be taught to sign, which is the useful part: nothing
in the suite had ever exercised announce with an attacker's key. The new tests
cover the missing proof, a foreign key, a stale timestamp, and idempotence.
Note for the record: the node key is independent of the user's identity key.
Two hub tests asserted the announced pk_node equalled the user's pk_ed, which
happened to be true only because the daemon announces its keystore key. They
now assert against the announced key itself.
Tests: 157 hub+common, node suite green.
