The push handler previously fell through to base64-decoding the
raw ciphertext whenever decryptDirect() returned null. For direct
(crypto_box) messages that produces garbage binary which surfaces
as garbled bytes in Claude's <channel> reminder. Limit the base64
fallback to legacy broadcast/channel messages (no senderPubkey),
and emit a clearer "⚠ message from <pubkey> failed to decrypt"
warning when direct decryption fails.

Full parity with claude-peers:
1. Push-injection (the "tap on shoulder" UX)
- MCP server now declares experimental.claude/channel capability
- BrokerClient onPush handlers emit server.notification({
method: "notifications/claude/channel",
params: { content, meta: {from_id, from_name, mesh_slug,
mesh_id, priority, sent_at, delivered_at, kind}}
})
- Claude Code injects each push as <channel source="claudemesh">
system reminder, so the receiver session sees inbound messages
WITHOUT calling check_messages manually
- Updated MCP instructions with the "RESPOND IMMEDIATELY" framing
(adapted from claude-peers)
2. Status hooks in install (default-on, --no-hooks to opt out)
- new apps/cli/src/commands/hook.ts: reads stdin JSON (Claude Code
hook payload), extracts cwd+session_id, POSTs /hook/set-status
to every joined mesh's broker in parallel with process.ppid +
1s timeout per POST. Silent fail, fire-and-forget.
- install.ts: writes to ~/.claude/settings.json registering
`claudemesh hook idle` on Stop + `claudemesh hook working` on
UserPromptSubmit. Idempotent, preserves other hook entries.
- uninstall.ts: removes both hook entries + MCP entry; leaves
unrelated hook/MCP entries alone.
- dedupes by brokerUrl (multiple meshes on same broker → one POST)
3. CLI surface
- new subcommand: `claudemesh hook <status>` (internal, but
exposed so Claude Code can invoke it via the hook shell command)
- `install --no-hooks` for users who want bare MCP registration
- --help updated
Coexistence with claude-peers: both tools register Stop and
UserPromptSubmit hooks, each POSTs to its own broker. Claude Code
fires multiple hooks per event without conflict.
npm version 0.1.0 → 0.1.1 (patch).
Verified:
- install with hooks → 2 entries added to settings.json ✓
- install --no-hooks → "Hooks skipped" ✓
- uninstall → both MCP entry + 2 hook entries removed ✓
- `echo '{...}' | claudemesh hook idle` with no joined meshes →
silent no-op ("no joined meshes, nothing to do") ✓
- MCP initialize response includes experimental.claude/channel ✓

Pairs with claudemesh-2's new /join/[token] landing page. Users can
now paste a clickable HTTPS URL instead of the dev-only ic:// scheme.
apps/cli/src/invite/parse.ts — new extractInviteToken() handles
four input formats before handing the raw base64url token to the
existing parseInviteLink pipeline:
- https://claudemesh.com/join/<token> (primary, clickable)
- https://claudemesh.com/<locale>/join/<token> (i18n prefix)
- ic://join/<token> (still supported, dev)
- <raw-token> (last resort: bare base64url)
User-facing strings updated to the HTTPS form:
- cli help: "join <url>"
- install success message
- list (no-meshes) hint
- MCP server "no meshes" error
- README.md primary example
- docs/QUICKSTART.md Path A + Path B
Verified extractInviteToken() on all 4 formats — each returns the
same base64url token → same broker /join lookup.

@claudemesh/cli was already taken on npm by an unrelated project
(claudemesh "domain packages", v1.0.7). PM picked option A: publish
unscoped as claudemesh-cli. Binary name stays "claudemesh" — users
type the natural thing on install:
npm install -g claudemesh-cli
claudemesh install
claudemesh join ic://join/...
renamed references everywhere:
- apps/cli/package.json: name
- apps/cli/README.md: title + install command
- apps/cli/src/{index.ts, mcp/server.ts, commands/install.ts} headers
- docs/QUICKSTART.md: install command, version banner, npx hint
- docs/roadmap.md: package name
also (PM journey-friction #5): surface the "restart Claude Code" step
LOUDLY in install output. Added a yellow-bold warning line after the
✓ success lines so new users don't miss the restart step (MCP tools
only load on Claude Code restart).
⚠ RESTART CLAUDE CODE for MCP tools to appear.
ANSI colors gated on isTTY + NO_COLOR/TERM=dumb guards.
bundle rebuilt. ready for npm publish pending user's `npm adduser`.

Direct messages between peers are now end-to-end encrypted. The
broker only ever sees {nonce, ciphertext} — plaintext lives on the
two endpoints.
apps/cli/src/crypto/envelope.ts:
- encryptDirect(message, recipientPubkeyHex, senderSecretKeyHex)
→ {nonce, ciphertext} via crypto_box_easy, 24-byte fresh nonce
- decryptDirect(envelope, senderPubkeyHex, recipientSecretKeyHex)
→ plaintext or null (null on MAC failure / malformed input)
- ed25519 keys (from Step 17) are converted to X25519 on the fly via
crypto_sign_ed25519_{pk,sk}_to_curve25519 — one signing keypair
covers both signing + encryption roles.
BrokerClient.send():
- if targetSpec is a 64-hex pubkey → encrypt via crypto_box
- else (broadcast "*" or channel "#foo") → base64-wrapped plaintext
(shared-key encryption for channels lands in a later step)
InboundPush now carries:
- plaintext: string | null (decrypted body, null if decryption failed
OR it's a non-direct message)
- kind: "direct" | "broadcast" | "channel" | "unknown"
MCP check_messages formatter reads plaintext directly.
side-fixes pulled in during 18a:
- apps/broker/scripts/seed-test-mesh.ts now generates real ed25519
keypairs (the previous "aaaa…" / "bbbb…" fillers weren't valid
curve points, so crypto_sign_ed25519_pk_to_curve25519 rejected
them). Seed output now includes secretKey for each peer.
- apps/broker/src/broker.ts drainForMember wraps the atomic claim in
a CTE + outer ORDER BY so FIFO ordering is SQL-sourced, not
JS-sorted (Postgres microsecond timestamps collapse to the same
Date.getTime() milliseconds otherwise).
- vitest.config.ts fileParallelism: false — test files share
DB state via cleanupAllTestMeshes afterAll, so running them in
parallel caused one file's cleanup to race another's inserts.
- integration/health.test.ts "returns 200" now uses waitFullyHealthy
(a 200-only waiter) instead of waitHealthyOrAny — prevents a race
with the startup DB ping.
verified live:
- apps/cli/scripts/roundtrip.ts (direct A→B): ciphertext in DB is
opaque bytes (not base64-plaintext), decrypted correctly on arrival
- apps/cli/scripts/join-roundtrip.ts (full join → encrypted send):
PASSED
- 48/48 broker tests green

broker-client: full WS client with hello handshake + ack, auto-reconnect
with exponential backoff (1s → 30s capped), in-memory outbound queue
(max 100) during reconnect, 500-entry push buffer for check_messages.
MCP tool integration:
- send_message: "slug:target" prefix or single-mesh fast path
- check_messages: drains push buffers across all clients
- set_status: fans manual override across all connected meshes
- set_summary: stubbed (broker protocol extension needed)
- list_peers: stubbed — lists connected mesh slugs + statuses
manager module holds Map<meshId, BrokerClient>, starts on MCP server
boot for every joined mesh in ~/.claudemesh/config.json.
new CLI command: seed-test-mesh injects a mesh row for dev testing.
also fixes a broker-side hello race: handleHello sent hello_ack before
the caller closure assigned presenceId, so clients sending right after
the ack hit the no_hello check. Fix: return presenceId, caller sets
closure var, THEN sends hello_ack. Queue drain is fire-and-forget now.
round-trip verified: two clients, A→B, push received with correct
senderPubkey + ciphertext. 44/44 broker tests still pass.
