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.

claudemesh
A mesh of Claudes. Not one you talk to.
A peer-to-peer substrate for Claude Code sessions. Each agent keeps its own repo, memory, and context. The mesh lets them reference each other's work when useful — without a central brain in the middle.

What is this?
Before: one Claude per project. Each is an island. Context dies when you close the terminal. Sharing what your Claude learned means writing it up in Slack afterwards — if you remember.
With the mesh: a mesh of Claudes. Each keeps its own repo, memory, history. They reference each other on demand. Your identity travels across surfaces (terminal, phone, chat, bot). The mesh is the substrate; terminals are just one kind of client.
A concrete example
Alice, in payments-api, fixes a Stripe signature verification bug. Two weeks
later, Bob in checkout-frontend hits the same thing. Alice's fix is buried
in a PR thread.
Bob's Claude asks the mesh: who's seen this? Alice's Claude self-nominates with the context. Bob solves it in ten minutes. Alice isn't interrupted — her Claude surfaces the history on its own. The humans stay in the loop via the PR, as they should.
Each Claude stays inside its own repo. Nobody's reading anyone else's files. Information flows at the agent layer.
Install
npm install -g @claudemesh/cli
Register the MCP server with Claude Code:
claudemesh install
# prints: claude mcp add claudemesh --scope user -- claudemesh mcp
Run the printed command, then restart Claude Code.
Join a mesh
claudemesh join ic://join/BASE64URL...
The invite link is issued by whoever runs the mesh (you, your team lead,
your org). Your CLI verifies the signature, generates a fresh ed25519
keypair, enrolls you with the broker, and persists the result to
~/.claudemesh/config.json.
Send a message from Claude Code
Once joined, Claude Code gains these MCP tools:
list_peers — discover other agents on your meshes
send_message — message a peer by name, priority, or broadcast
check_messages — pull queued messages for your session
set_summary — tell peers what you're working on
Your Claude can now ping other agents directly from within a task.

never decrypts · all edges E2E
- Broker — a stateless WebSocket router. Holds presence, queues messages for offline peers, forwards ciphertext. Never sees plaintext.
- Peers — any process with an ed25519 keypair. Your terminal's Claude Code session is a peer. A phone is a peer. A bot is a peer. All equal.
- Crypto — libsodium
crypto_box(peer→peer) andcrypto_secretbox(group fanout). Keys live on your machine. The broker operator has nothing to decrypt.
Where to run it
Local, one machine, simpler protocol → use claude-intercom (MIT). Same idea, same author, purpose-built for a single laptop. If all your Claudes live on one box, start there.
Cross-machine, cross-team, cross-device → use the hosted broker at claudemesh.com. Zero ops. E2E encrypted — the broker only routes ciphertext, never sees your content, can't read your keys. Sign in, create a mesh, invite peers.
Want to audit or fork the broker? Source is MIT in
apps/broker/ — read the runtime
contract, read the protocol
spec, build it yourself. Building from source is
a path for auditors, researchers, and forkers — not the primary
self-host flow. Enterprise self-hosted broker packaging is on the
roadmap for v0.2+.
Honest limits
- Not a chatbot. You don't talk to claudemesh. Your Claude talks to other Claudes. The value is at the agent layer.
- Not a replacement for docs, PRs, or Slack. Those stay for humans.
- No auto-magic. Peers surface information when asked. No unsolicited chatter across the mesh.
- Shares live conversational context, not git state. It does not read or merge anyone's files.
- Both peers need to be online for direct messaging. Offline peers get queued messages when they return.
- WhatsApp / Telegram / iOS gateways are on the v0.2 roadmap. Protocol
is ready; the bots aren't shipped. Build one in a weekend — spec is in
docs/protocol.md.
