Removed all E2EE chat endpoints, crypto logic, and related API routes, transitioning chat to plain text storage and transport. Updated chat send/receive endpoints to use signed actions and enforce DM privacy settings. Cleaned up Swarm chat inbox, key management, and related debug endpoints. Updated user profile to support DM privacy, improved search for handle queries, and refactored conversation/message logic to support the new model. Migrated bot settings and privacy settings to new locations.
Added `{ cache: 'no-store' }` to fetch requests for chat keys in both the chat page and useSodiumChat hook to prevent stale key data. Also updated the chat key query to order by `lastSeenAt` descending, ensuring the most recent bundle is retrieved.
Reorganizes useEffect hooks in chat/page.tsx to follow a helper-functions-first structure, improving readability and maintainability. Adds error handling and user feedback for compose intent, preventing UI flash while processing. In send/route.ts, ensures remote user handles are fully qualified and adds debug logging. Temporarily disables key caching in keys/route.ts to address development key mismatches.
Replaces legacy chat encryption modules with new sodium-based implementation. Adds and updates API routes for chat key management and debugging, introduces new hooks and scripts for sodium chat, and updates related database schema and configuration. Removes old crypto modules and updates dependencies accordingly.
The messages API now resolves and includes sender DIDs for received messages, enabling proper decryption in the chat UI. The chat page adds logic to decrypt self-encrypted messages for sent items and improves V2 envelope handling, while useChatEncryption now serializes ratchet state before storage.
Introduces a migration to add a sender_did column to the chat_messages table and creates new tables for chat_device_bundles, chat_inbox, and chat_one_time_keys. Updates related API routes and adds a script for sender DID migration. These changes support device-based messaging and improved chat security.
Adds robust session serialization/deserialization for ratchet state, session cleanup for corrupted data, and improved error handling in chat encryption hooks. Enhances chat delivery to support both local and remote recipients, ensures conversation creation, and adds timeouts to key fetches. Also introduces utilities for deleting and clearing encrypted session data from storage.
Refactors the chat key fetch API to support fallback lookups using user handle and did:web aliasing, improving reliability when primary lookups fail. Updates useChatEncryption to detect and repair 'Zombie State' where local keys exist but are missing on the server, ensuring keys are republished as needed. Modifies sendMessage to pass recipient handle and bind sessions to the correct DID, supporting aliasing scenarios.
Introduces an API route to proxy remote key bundle fetches, improving CORS handling for secure chat. Updates chat UI to handle error states and retries, enhances key/identity synchronization, and refactors message sending to support remote node domains. Also adds CORS preflight support to the .well-known chat route and improves in-memory key store management.
Major update to chat page with new conversation list, message thread view, and support for V2 end-to-end encrypted messaging using DIDs. Adds chat lock state, message sending, conversation deletion, and improved polling. Updates user API and types to include DID and chatPublicKey. Fixes race conditions in feed loading, adds message button to user profile, and improves crypto and identity hooks for better locked/unlocked state detection.
Introduces an API route for deleting chat conversations, supporting deletion for self or both parties. Updates the chat page UI to allow users to delete conversations with confirmation modal and handles state updates after deletion.
Renamed 'Latest' feed to 'Following' across the home and profile pages for clarity, and updated related UI text. Improved chat experience by adding a scroll-to-bottom button, tracking scroll position, and only auto-scrolling when the user is at the bottom. Updated default node description to 'A swarm social network node.' in multiple locations.
All user and post profile URLs have been updated from /[handle] to /u/[handle] for consistency. Added a redirect page for /posts/[id] to the canonical /u/[handle]/posts/[id] route. Deprecated and removed legacy scripts and documentation related to chat and federation endpoints. Push-based federation endpoints are now disabled in favor of real-time pull-based federation.
Introduces a new chat page with end-to-end encryption, conversation list, and message thread UI. Adds new API endpoints for unread message count and debugging chat keys/messages. Improves chat key validation and reciprocal conversation/message creation for local recipients. Removes the old ChatWidget component. Updates login and chat API logic for better Turnstile and key handling.
