From 1e8eae1f3de765fcd8163716de6e5fe5aab5a034 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christophe Besson Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2026 09:33:28 +0200 Subject: feat(hub): one account, several linked nodes An account links up to MAX_NODES_PER_ACCOUNT node keys (node_keys table) instead of the one users.pk_node_ed25519; the migration carries each account's key over and the downgrade keeps the last one linked. /v1/nodes/auth accepts any linked key, and its token names the key that won it (nk). PUT /me/node_key adds a key, idempotently, 409 past the limit; DELETE /me/node_key names the key: a browser session any of its own, a node only its own. Unlinking a key closes that node's socket and refuses its tokens at once, on REST and on the socket; the account's other nodes are untouched. /pubkeys no longer gives a node key to other accounts, and gives the caller its last linked one, which installed desktop apps read. The node reports waiting_for_node_key while its key is unlinked and signs in again as soon as the hub says so, so a key linked again is back within seconds; unlinking itself signs in first to hold a token naming its key. Profile -> Linked nodes lists each node (connected, last seen, IP, linked since, This machine in the desktop app) with Copy and Unlink, and adds a key by hand. The Node page banner, Create group and the desktop app add this machine's key instead of replacing another's. Messages that pointed at Settings -> Link Node point at Profile -> Linked nodes.
