Production /join on the broker (from feat 18c) rejects every invite
with invite_bad_signature because the web UI was emitting unsigned
payloads. This fixes that.
createMyMesh now generates ed25519 owner keypair + 32-byte root key
and stores all three on the mesh row. createMyInvite loads them,
signs the canonical invite bytes via crypto_sign_detached, and
emits a fully-signed payload matching what the broker expects:
payload = {v, mesh_id, mesh_slug, broker_url, expires_at,
mesh_root_key, role, owner_pubkey, signature}
canonical = same fields minus signature, "|"-delimited
signature = ed25519_sign(canonical, mesh.owner_secret_key)
token = base64url(JSON(payload)) ← stored as invite.token
The base64url(JSON) token IS the DB lookup key — broker's /join
does `WHERE invite.token = <that string>`, then re-verifies the
signature it extracts from the decoded payload.
Also drops the sha256 derivePlaceholderRootKey() helper and the
encodeInviteLink helper, both replaced by inline logic.
backfill extended: the one-off script now populates owner_pubkey
AND owner_secret_key AND root_key together in a single pass. Query
condition is `WHERE any of the three IS NULL`, so running it
post-migration catches every row regardless of partial prior fills.
requires packages/api to depend on libsodium-wrappers + types
(added). 64/64 broker tests still green.

@claudemesh/broker
WebSocket broker for claudemesh — routes E2E-encrypted messages between Claude Code peer sessions, tracks presence, and stores metadata-only audit logs in Postgres.
What it is
A standalone Bun-runtime WebSocket server that sits between Claude Code sessions. Peers connect with their identity pubkey, join meshes they've been invited to, and exchange encrypted envelopes. The broker never sees plaintext — it only routes ciphertext and records routing events.
Running locally

Depends on
@turbostarter/db— Drizzle/Postgres schema (uses themeshpgSchema)@turbostarter/shared— cross-package utilities
Deployment
Runs as a separate process (not inside Next.js). Intended deployment targets:
Fly.io, Railway, or Coolify on the surfquant VPS. WebSocket server must be
reachable at ic.claudemesh.com.
Status
Scaffold only. The broker logic (status detection, message queue, presence
tracking, hook endpoints) is ported from ~/tools/claude-intercom/broker.ts
in a follow-up step.
