Extract _reqId from incoming WS messages and include it in every direct response sendToPeer call and sendError call. Clients can now match responses to requests by ID instead of relying on FIFO ordering. Old clients without _reqId are unaffected (field simply omitted).

@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.

@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.
