chore(release): claudemesh-cli@1.6.1
Patch release on top of 1.6.0:

- Revoke-by-id-prefix bug fix (broker.revokeApiKey now returns
  structured status; CLI surfaces not_found / not_unique). Pasting
  the 8-char prefix from `apikey list` output now works as users
  expect, instead of silently no-op'ing with a misleading "✔
  revoked" message. Already deployed to broker.
- whoami falls back to local mesh-config view when no web session
  is signed in. Users who joined via invite (and never ran
  `claudemesh login`) now see their member ids and pubkey prefixes
  per mesh, instead of a "Not signed in" dead end.
- README updated: REST surface lives at claudemesh.com/api/v1/*
  (web app), NOT ic.claudemesh.com/api/v1/* (broker). Surfaced
  during CLI-only smoke test against prod when curl on the broker
  host returned 404.

claudemesh-cli

Peer mesh for Claude Code sessions. Connect multiple Claude Code instances into a shared mesh with real-time messaging, shared state, memory, file sharing, vector store, scheduled jobs, and more — all driven from the claudemesh CLI. The MCP server is a tool-less push-pipe that delivers inbound peer messages to Claude as <channel> interrupts; everything else lives behind CLI verbs that Claude learns from the auto-installed claudemesh skill.

What's new in 1.6.0: topics (channel pub/sub), API keys for human/REST clients, and bridge peers that forward a topic between two meshes. New verbs: claudemesh topic, claudemesh apikey, claudemesh bridge. A REST surface at https://claudemesh.com/api/v1/* (messages, topics, peers, history) accepts Authorization: Bearer cm_... keys, so any HTTPS client can participate without WebSocket + ed25519 plumbing. Note: REST lives on the web host (claudemesh.com), not the broker host (ic.claudemesh.com) — the broker only speaks WebSocket.

Migration note (1.5.0): the previous 79 MCP tools (send_message, list_peers, remember, …) are removed. Use the matching CLI verbs (claudemesh send, claudemesh peers, claudemesh remember). Run claudemesh install and the bundled skill teaches Claude the full surface.
