fix(broker): libsodium dynamic import — extract .default for bun
await import('libsodium-wrappers') returns the namespace object in
bun, not the sodium API. randombytes_buf et al. live on .default.
Without this, every topic_create on the deployed broker errored
with 'sodium.randombytes_buf is not a function' and the WS handler
silently dropped — CLI saw a 5s timeout.

Confirmed via broker docker logs:
  warn ws message error: sodium.randombytes_buf is not a function

Same destructure pattern as crypto.ts (which uses the synchronous
default import).

@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

# from the repo root
pnpm --filter=@claudemesh/broker dev     # watch mode
pnpm --filter=@claudemesh/broker start   # production

Required env vars

Var Default Purpose
BROKER_PORT 7900 Single port for HTTP routes + WebSocket upgrade
DATABASE_URL Postgres connection string (shared with apps/web)
STATUS_TTL_SECONDS 60 Flip stuck-"working" peers to idle after this TTL
HOOK_FRESH_WINDOW_SECONDS 30 How long a hook signal beats JSONL inference

Routes (single port)

Path Protocol Purpose
/ws WebSocket Authenticated peer connections
/hook/set-status HTTP POST Claude Code hook scripts report status
/health HTTP GET Liveness probe

Depends on

  • @turbostarter/db — Drizzle/Postgres schema (uses the mesh pgSchema)
  • @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.
