Adds a reply_to_id column (self-FK on topic_message) plus end-to-end
plumbing so a message can mark itself as a reply to a previous one in
the same topic.
- Schema: 0027_topic_message_reply_to.sql adds reply_to_id with
ON DELETE SET NULL + index for backlink lookup.
- Broker: appendTopicMessage validates parent shares the topic, writes
reply_to_id; topicHistory + topic_history_response surface it; WS
push envelope now carries senderMemberId, senderName, topic name,
reply_to_id, and message_id so recipients have everything they need
to reply without a follow-up query.
- REST: POST /v1/messages accepts replyToId (validated server-side);
GET /messages and SSE /stream emit it per row.
- CLI: \`topic post --reply-to <id|prefix>\` resolves prefixes against
recent history; \`topic tail\` renders an "↳ in reply to <name>:
<snippet>" line above replies and shows a copyable #shortid tag on
every row.
- MCP push pipe: channel attributes now include from_pubkey,
from_member_id, message_id, topic, reply_to_id — the recipient can
thread a reply directly from the inbound notification.
- Skill + identity prompt updated to teach Claude how to use the new
attributes for replies.
Bumped CLI to 1.9.0.
await import('libsodium-wrappers') returns the namespace object in
bun, not the sodium API. randombytes_buf et al. live on .default.
Without this, every topic_create on the deployed broker errored
with 'sodium.randombytes_buf is not a function' and the WS handler
silently dropped — CLI saw a 5s timeout.
Confirmed via broker docker logs:
warn ws message error: sodium.randombytes_buf is not a function
Same destructure pattern as crypto.ts (which uses the synchronous
default import).

A bad ed25519 pubkey on the creator member (legacy data) made
sealTopicKeyForMember throw, which propagated up through createTopic
and made the WS topic_create handler never send a topic_created
frame. CLI saw a 5s timeout and printed 'topic create failed'.
Wraps the seal call in try/catch — topic creation succeeds even if
no copy gets sealed for the creator. They'll see GET /v1/topics/:name/key
return 404 until they re-seal (or a holder does it for them via
the phase-3 background loop).

Wire format:
topic_member_key.encrypted_key = base64(
<32-byte sender x25519 pubkey> || crypto_box(topic_key)
)
Embedding sender pubkey inline lets re-sealed copies (carrying a
different sender than the original creator-seal) decode the same
way as creator copies, without an extra schema column or join.
topic.encrypted_key_pubkey stays for backwards-compat metadata
but the wire truth is the inline prefix.
API (phase 3):
GET /v1/topics/:name/pending-seals list members without keys
POST /v1/topics/:name/seal submit a re-sealed copy
POST /v1/messages now accepts bodyVersion (1|2); v2 skips the
regex mention extraction (server can't read v2 ciphertext).
GET /messages + /stream now return bodyVersion per row.
Broker + web mutations updated to use the inline-sender format
when sealing. ensureGeneralTopic (web) also generates topic keys
per the bugfix that landed earlier today; both producers now
share one wire format.
CLI (claudemesh-cli@1.8.0):
+ apps/cli/src/services/crypto/topic-key.ts — fetch/decrypt/encrypt/seal
+ claudemesh topic post <name> <msg> — encrypted REST send (v2)
* claudemesh topic tail <name> — decrypts v2 on render, runs a
30s background re-seal loop for pending joiners
Web client stays on v1 plaintext until phase 3.5 (browser-side
persistent identity in IndexedDB). Mention fan-out from phase 1
already works for both versions, so /v1/notifications keeps
working through the cutover.
Spec at .artifacts/specs/2026-05-02-topic-key-onboarding.md
updated with the implemented inline-sender format and the
phase 3.5 web plan.

WSSendMessage gains an optional mentions field; the broker forwards
it into appendTopicMessage so WS-driven topic sends get the same
write-time fan-out path as REST POST /v1/messages. v1 messages
(today's plaintext-base64) still fall back to a body regex when the
field is omitted, so existing CLIs aren't broken; v2 ciphertext
clients in phase 3 will populate it.
Also drops the duplicate meshMember import (kept the meshMember-as-
memberTable alias which the rest of the file uses).

Phase 2 (infra layer) of v0.3.0. Topics now generate a 32-byte
XSalsa20-Poly1305 key on creation; the broker seals one copy via
crypto_box for the topic creator using an ephemeral x25519
sender keypair (whose public half lives on
topic.encrypted_key_pubkey). Topic key plaintext leaves memory
immediately after the creator's seal — the broker can't read it.
Schema 0026:
+ topic.encrypted_key_pubkey (text, nullable for legacy v0.2.0)
+ topic_message.body_version (integer, 1=plaintext / 2=v2 cipher)
+ topic_member_key (id, topic_id, member_id,
encrypted_key, nonce, rotated_at)
API:
+ GET /v1/topics/:name/key — return the calling member's sealed
copy. 404 if no copy exists yet (joined post-creation, no peer
has re-sealed). 409 if the topic is legacy unencrypted.
Open question parked: how new joiners get their sealed copy
without ceding plaintext to the broker. Spec at
.artifacts/specs/2026-05-02-topic-key-onboarding.md picks
member-driven re-seal (Option B). Pending-seals endpoint, seal
POST, and the actual on-the-wire encryption ship in phase 3.
Mention fan-out from phase 1 (notification table) is decoupled
from ciphertext, so /v1/notifications + MentionsSection keep
working unchanged through both phases.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Phase 1 of v0.3.0 — replaces the regex-on-decoded-ciphertext scan
in /v1/notifications and the dashboard MentionsSection with reads
from a new mesh.notification table populated at write time.
Schema 0025: mesh.notification (id, mesh_id, topic_id, message_id,
recipient_member_id, sender_member_id, kind, created_at, read_at)
with a unique (message_id, recipient) so a re-fanned message yields
one row per recipient. Backfills existing v0.2.0 messages by
regex-matching the (still-base64-plaintext) bodies — guarded with
a base64 + length check so binary ciphertext doesn't crash the
migration.
Writers (POST /v1/messages + broker appendTopicMessage) now
extract @-mentions from either an explicit `mentions: string[]`
on the request OR a regex over the base64 plaintext (transitional
fallback). Targets are intersected with the mesh roster + capped
at 32 per message. Web chat panel sends the explicit array now so
it keeps working after phase 2 lands.
Readers switch to JOIN-on-notification:
/v1/notifications — table-backed, supports ?unread=1
POST /v1/notifications/read — new, mark by ids or all-up-to
MentionsSection (RSC) — same JOIN, returns readAt for each row
GET /v1/notifications also gains a read_at field per row so a
future bell UI can show unread vs read.
Once per-topic encryption (phase 2) lands, the regex fallback
becomes a no-op for v2 messages — clients MUST send `mentions`,
which they already do.

claudemesh apikey revoke <id> reported success even when the input
didn't match any row in mesh.api_key. The CLI's `apikey list` shows
truncated 8-char prefixes; users naturally paste those; broker did
exact-id match against meshApiKey.id; UPDATE affected 0 rows; old
revokeApiKey returned void so the CLI couldn't tell. Discovered via
end-to-end CLI smoke test against prod (roadmap validation pass).
Three-part fix:
- broker.revokeApiKey now returns
{ status: "revoked"|"not_found"|"not_unique"; id?, matches? } and
accepts either the full id or a unique prefix (>=6 chars). Prefix
matching is bounded to the caller's mesh and only succeeds if
exactly one row matches; ambiguous prefixes return not_unique so
we never silently revoke the wrong key.
- New WSApiKeyRevokeResponseMessage carries the structured status
back to the CLI. Old apikey_revoke_ok type removed before being
released — never shipped to users. The error path is no longer
used for not_found/not_unique cases; the unified response carries
both outcomes.
- CLI's apiKeyRevoke now resolves with { ok, id } | { ok: false,
code, message }. runApiKeyRevoke surfaces the code/message and
exits non-zero on failure (NOT_FOUND for missing, INVALID_ARGS
for ambiguous prefix).
Net effect: pasting `claudemesh apikey revoke vq0fwjdX` now actually
revokes the key whose id starts with vq0fwjdX (or fails loud if 0
or >1 keys match). Verified against prod via the new branch's CLI
binary before commit.

Web-first owners had no mesh.member row because the broker only ever
created one on first WS hello (CLI flow). The topic chat page server
component requires that row to issue a dashboard apikey
(issuedByMemberId is a FK to mesh.member), so visiting the chat for a
web-only mesh hit notFound() on the owner's own room.
Forward fix: createMyMesh now generates a fresh ed25519 peer keypair,
inserts a mesh.member row with role=admin and dashboardUserId=userId,
and subscribes the owner to the auto-created #general topic as 'lead'.
The peer secret key is intentionally discarded — web users don't sign
anything in v0.2.0 (no DMs, base64 plaintext on topics). If the same
user later runs the CLI, the broker mints a separate member row from
its own keypair; both work for their respective surfaces.
Backfill: apps/broker/scripts/backfill-owner-members.ts walks every
non-archived mesh whose owner has no member row, generates real
ed25519 keypairs via libsodium, inserts the rows in a transaction,
and subscribes each as 'lead' on #general. Already run against prod
— 13 owner rows minted, ddtest verified end-to-end via playwriter
(send → poll → render round-trip ok).

Now that the filename-tracked runner is in place and prod is bootstrapped,
BROKER_SKIP_MIGRATE=1 is no longer needed. Removed from Coolify env;

drizzle's _journal.json drifted to idx=11 while the file system had 25
.sql files; the prod drizzle.__drizzle_migrations table was further
behind with 3 rows. The runtime migrator silently skipped anything
outside the journal, so every new schema change required psql -f by
hand.
The new runner tracks applied files in mesh.__cmh_migrations
(filename PK + sha256 + applied_at). On startup it bootstraps the
tracking table inline, lists migrations/*.sql lexicographically,
filters out already-applied files, and runs the rest in transaction
order under the existing pg_advisory_lock. SHA mismatches on
already-applied files emit a warning but don't fail (cosmetic edits
are common); production drift detection lives elsewhere.
Bootstrap script at apps/broker/scripts/bootstrap-cmh-migrations.ts
computes file hashes and seeds the tracking table — already run
against prod with all 25 current files registered as applied. Future
deploys pick up only truly new migrations.

The web chat surface needed a guaranteed landing room — a topic that
exists for every mesh from creation onward so the dashboard always has
somewhere to drop the user. #general is the convention; ephemeral DMs
remain ephemeral (mesh.message_queue) so agentic privacy is unchanged.
Three hooks plus a backfill:
- packages/api/src/modules/mesh/mutations.ts — createMyMesh now calls
ensureGeneralTopic() right after the mesh insert. New helper is
idempotent via the unique (mesh_id, name) index.
- apps/broker/src/index.ts — handleMeshCreate (CLI claudemesh new)
inserts #general + subscribes the owner member as 'lead' in the
same handler.
- apps/broker/src/crypto.ts — invite-claim flow auto-subscribes the
newly minted member to #general as 'member', defensively ensuring
the topic exists if predates this change.
- packages/db/migrations/0024_general_topic_backfill.sql — one-shot
backfill: creates #general for every active mesh that doesn't have
one, subscribes every active member, and marks the mesh owner as
'lead' based on owner_user_id == member.user_id. Idempotent.

- policy: apikey create + revoke prompt by default (issuing or
disabling a credential is meaningful)

handleSend's pre-flight check rejected #<topicId> sends because the
target wasn't matched by @group / * / pubkey, so it fell into the
"direct" branch and looked for a peer with that pubkey. Topic targets

matching connected peers.

Broker (apps/broker/src/index.ts)
- Unified disconnect/kick handler uses close code 1000 for disconnect
(CLI auto-reconnects) vs 4001 for kick (CLI exits, no reconnect).
- Ban now closes with code 4002.
- Hello handler: revoked members get a specific 'revoked' error with a
'Contact the mesh owner to rejoin' message, then ws.close(4002).
Previously banned users saw the generic 'unauthorized' error.
- list_bans handler returns { name, pubkey, revokedAt } for each
revoked member.
CLI (apps/cli)
- ws-client: close codes 4001 and 4002 set .closed = true and stash
.terminalClose so callers can surface a friendly message instead of
the low-level 'ws terminal close' error. Revoked error in hello is
also captured as a terminal close.
- withMesh catches terminalClose and prints:
4001 → 'Kicked from this mesh. Run claudemesh to rejoin.'
4002 → the broker's 'Contact the mesh owner to rejoin.' message
- kick.ts now exports runDisconnect + runKick with clear hints:
'disconnect' → 'They will auto-reconnect within seconds.'
'kick' → 'They can rejoin anytime by running claudemesh.'
- cli.ts adds 'disconnect' dispatch; HELP updated.
Semantics:
disconnect: session reset, no DB state, auto-reconnects
kick : session ends, no DB state, user must manually rejoin
ban : session ends + revokedAt set, cannot rejoin until unban

Broker WS handlers:
- kick: disconnect peer(s) by name, --stale duration, or --all.
Authz: owner or admin only. Closes WS + marks presence disconnected.
- ban: kick + set revokedAt on mesh.member. Hello already rejects
revoked members, so ban is instant and permanent until unban.
- unban: clear revokedAt. Peer can rejoin with their existing keypair.
- list_bans: return all revoked members for a mesh.
Session-id dedup (previous commit): handleHello disconnects ghost
presences with matching (meshId, sessionId) before inserting the new
one. Eliminates duplicate entries after broker restarts.
CLI (alpha.37):
- claudemesh kick <peer|--stale 30m|--all>
- claudemesh ban/unban <peer>
- claudemesh bans [--json]
- Uses new sendAndWait() on ws-client for request-response pattern
over WS (generic _reqId resolver).

When a client reconnects with the same session_id before the 90s
stale sweeper runs, the old ghost presence stays in the connections
map. Result: duplicate entries in list_peers for the same Claude
Code instance.
Now: handleHello iterates connections for matching (meshId, sessionId),
closes the old WS, deletes from map, marks disconnected in DB.
One session_id = one presence, always.

Backwards compat shim (task 27)
- requireCliAuth() falls back to body.user_id when BROKER_LEGACY_AUTH=1
and no bearer present. Sets Deprecation + Warning headers + bumps a
broker_legacy_auth_hits_total metric so operators can watch the
legacy traffic drain to 0 before removing the shim.
- All handlers parse body BEFORE requireCliAuth so the fallback can
read user_id out of it.
HA readiness (task 29)
- .artifacts/specs/2026-04-15-broker-ha-statelessness-audit.md
documents every in-memory symbol and rollout plan (phase 0-4).
- packaging/docker-compose.ha-local.yml spins up 2 broker replicas
behind Traefik sticky sessions for local smoke testing.
- apps/broker/src/audit.ts now wraps writes in a transaction that
takes pg_advisory_xact_lock(meshId) and re-reads the tail hash
inside the txn. Concurrent broker replicas can no longer fork the
audit chain.
Deploy gate (task 30)
- /health stays permissive (200 even on transient DB blips) so
Docker doesn't kill the container on a glitch.
- New /health/ready checks DB + optional EXPECTED_MIGRATION pin,
returns 503 if either fails. External deploy gate can poll this
and refuse to promote a broken deploy.
Metrics dashboard (task 32)
- packaging/grafana/claudemesh-broker.json: ready-to-import Grafana
dashboard covering active conns, queue depth, routed/rejected
rates, grant drops, legacy-auth hits, conn rejects.
Tests (task 28)
- audit-canonical.test.ts (4 tests) pins canonical JSON semantics.
- grants-enforcement.test.ts (6 tests) covers the member-then-
session-pubkey lookup with default/explicit/blocked branches.
Docs (task 34)
- docs/env-vars.md catalogues every env var the broker + CLI read.

Broker (all need redeploy):
- sweepOrphanMessages: DELETE undelivered message_queue rows older
than 7 days; hourly sweep. Stops unbounded growth when a sender
typos a name (queued forever, never claimed).
- Per-member send rate limit: TokenBucket(60/min, burst 10) keyed on
memberId so reconnecting can't bypass. Surfaces as queued=false,
error='rate_limit: ...'.
- Pre-flight size cap: reject at handleSend if nonce+ciphertext+
targetSpec exceeds env.MAX_MESSAGE_BYTES with a clear error
instead of silent WSS frame-level kill.
- No-recipient reject: for direct sends, check any matching peer
is connected BEFORE queueing. Kills the self-send silent drop
(sending to your own pubkey when you only have one session
connected) and typo-to-offline-peer silent drops.
- WSAckMessage.error field added for structured failure reasons.
CLI:
- ws-client ack handler reads msg.queued and msg.error; surfaces
rate_limit / too_large / no_recipient to callers instead of
returning ok:true with a dummy messageId.

When a user opens multiple Claude Code instances on one laptop they
all share the same memberPubkey (one identity, one config.json). The
broker was broadcasting each Claude Code start/stop to every OTHER
session of the same user — showing as 'peer agutierrez left / joined'
spam in every active claude terminal.
Now: skip broadcast to presences whose memberPubkey equals the joining
or leaving presence's memberPubkey. Other actual peers on the mesh
still see the event.

Older CLIs sometimes called POST /cli/mesh/create without a pubkey,
and the broker stored the string 'pending' as peer_pubkey on the
owner's mesh.member row. Every subsequent hello from the real CLI
failed the membership lookup silently, leaving the connection in
'reconnecting' forever with no useful log line.
Now: validate pubkey is 64 hex chars before creating the owner
member row. Existing 'pending' rows on prod were patched manually.
