A 1080p film is decoded by whoever watches it and re-encoded by the node
when no browser can decode the source. Both were on the CPU, and on an
Atom or Celeron mini-PC neither reaches real time — which is what
`transcode_incompatible_video` exists to refuse. This adds the mechanism
that makes refusing it unnecessary.
Node — `hwaccel.py`: VA-API on Linux, Quick Sync or NVENC on Windows,
established by encoding 1080p and reading the file back with ffprobe.
Nothing is accepted that does not produce the exact profile and level
`stream_init` announces, since the client checks that string before it
trusts a byte: an encoder that wrote another level would make the node's
own codec string a lie, and ffmpeg takes `-level 4.1` and `-level 41`
from h264_qsv without saying which it understood. Three modes per
stream — hardware decode and encode, hardware encode alone, libx264 —
demoted per source codec, because a GPU that decodes HEVC may have no
decoder for MPEG-4 Part 2 and only asking it finds out. A mode that
fails is detected on an empty stdout before `stream_init` goes out, so
the viewer sees one working stream and never an error.
Client — Chromium ships VA-API off on Linux. It is enabled where a
render node and a driver are present, then verified through
`navigator.mediaCapabilities`: a no moves to the next GL backend on the
next launch and an exhausted list drops the switches, so a renamed
feature cannot pass for a feature that is on and `--ignore-gpu-blocklist`
cannot survive on a machine it did not help. Feature lists now merge
rather than overwrite — `appendSwitch` replaces the value, and a second
caller would have silently cancelled the mDNS switch aiortc depends on.
Packaging — the drivers are weak dependencies on all four formats, so a
machine without a GPU installs exactly as before. `dpkg -i` and
`rpm -ivh` ignore weak deps; `packaging/README.md` now says so. Windows
needs no driver: the bundled ffmpeg already carries h264_qsv and
h264_nvenc, and a re-pin that dropped them would cost every low-power
Windows node its hardware encoding silently.
AMD on Windows (AMF) and macOS (VideoToolbox) are named gaps, not
oversights: neither could be tried anywhere in this project, and both
re-encode in software as before.

The packages carried a profile for LAN casting and none for the node's own
peer traffic, on the reasoning that the node exposes only a loopback admin
API. That is true of its administration surface and false of its transport.
WebRTC binds an ephemeral UDP port per connection, so there is no fixed port
to open, and a connection succeeds only if one side can initiate. Browsers
publish their host candidate as an mDNS `<uuid>.local` name, which aioice
cannot resolve on any platform and discards — so the node can never call a
browser back, and the browser must call the node. A node that refuses
unsolicited inbound UDP is unreachable from every browser on its own LAN,
leaving reflexive candidates, which fail whenever both peers share one public
IP and the router will not hairpin.
Hit twice in one session on two different hosts: a firewalld zone narrowed to
mdns + 19550-19553/tcp, and a ufw host with default deny-incoming. Both
presented as "the app cannot connect", neither as a firewall message.
Passive like the cast profile: packaged, not activated. The guide says to
scope it to a LAN zone or source, including the libvirt case, where traffic
from a guest to its own hypervisor is not masqueraded and so must be scoped
to the guest subnet rather than the LAN.

Remove the node daemon's server-rendered admin UI (GET / and /audit, the
_render_* helpers and inline templates) and the `meshbay-node ui` CLI verb.
The loopback control API stays; it is now JSON only, ruff-clean, and 453
lines (was 1074). Also drop three never-wired endpoints (/api/config,
/api/chat/history, /ws/chat, plus broadcast_chat) and the pointless
18000/tcp firewall profiles.
The desktop client's Node page (static/node-page.js) takes over what the
dashboard showed, reorganised into six tabs (Overview, Groups, Roster,
Peers, Audit, Settings):
- Overview: version, node id, QUIC port, hub, index-cache maintenance
- Roster: node-wide view with unpin
- Peers and Audit: auto-load on open, no Load button
- Audit: real usernames and group names (resolved from the roster and
node.toml), Previous/Next pagination newest-first, Export CSV of every
matching row
- Settings: node settings, STUN, ICE, denylist, then Unlink from hub
Backend: audit.get_entries gains `offset`; /api/audit and /api/peers
resolve ids to names via a new _display_names helper; CSP tightened to
default-src 'none' now that no HTML is served. draft-v6 sections 2.11 and
2.12 corrected -- the Node page uses the loopback API, not MNP.
One capability is intentionally dropped: browser-based admin on a headless
server. The CLI covers every operation there.

Shared venv architecture: meshbay-common owns the Python venv with all
pip deps pre-installed; hub and node add only their code into it.
Client is a standalone Electron app. No pip runs at install time.
- Add build scripts (packaging/build/) for common, hub, node, client
- Add orchestrator build-packages.sh with deb/rpm auto-detection
- Add .deb control/postinst for all 4 packages
- Add .rpm specs for all 4 packages (replaces python3-meshbay-common)
- Add Gnome .desktop launcher and icon resizing
- Add firewalld services (meshbay-cast, meshbay-node) and UFW profiles
- Update systemd units to use /opt/meshbay-common/venv/bin/ paths
- TMDB token baked into node package at build time via QE/node.env
- Fix package-lock.json sync for protobufjs override

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

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.

Two rounds of features and one long hunt.
The hub gained leaving a group, a cap of ten live public groups per owner, and
the rule that a group is listed only once a node has announced it — with
`prune-groups` to collect the ones that never got one. Presence rides on the
group list, from the registry the hub already keeps for signaling. The web
client speaks ten languages, splits Profile from Settings, and reads chat the
way it is written: newest first, paging backwards.
The rest was one symptom — "close the viewer, the next video hangs" — with three
independent causes underneath, none of which the test suite or e2e.py could see.
A background task the loop only weakly referenced, collected while it held a
transcode slot. A connection-state handler that forgot a peer without stopping
it. And `await proc.wait()` deadlocking on ffmpeg's own unread output, which no
amount of SIGKILL resolves. Found by instrumenting the node and reading the log,
after two confident fixes that addressed real but different bugs.
MNP goes to 0.2: PING/PONG and backward chat paging, both additive.

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

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

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

3 packages: python3-meshbay-common (dep), meshbay-hub, meshbay-node.
RPM: spec files with pre/post scriptlets (useradd, systemd macros).
DEB: DEBIAN/control + postinst for hub, control for node + common.
Systemd: hub.service (system, security hardening) + node.service
(user template @%i, EnvironmentFile for MESHBAY_UNLOCK_KEY).
packaging/README.md: build + install instructions.
