A multi-day batch covering: a security review punch list (Day 1-3),
the visual-encryption profile-picture feature, a fast deploy
infrastructure, ack resilience + UX polish, several nostr ecosystem
alignment changes, and a key server-independence fix.
Security review (Day 1)
- Envelope v2 (ephemeral x25519 per message; AAD-bound AES-GCM;
no plaintext from/to). Big metadata-leak fix flagged by reviews.
Forward secrecy at the per-message level; v1 decrypt kept for
a one-week migration window.
- Routing tag rename h → q (NIP-29 collision fix).
- Web Push payload now empty (was leaking recipient handle to FCM).
- Log demotion + process-instance salt-hash of handles so debug
logs don't permanently encode the social graph.
Security review (Day 2)
- Replay protection: SEEN_CAP 500 → 10_000 ids; reject events with
impossibly old/future created_at; openMessage enforces ±7d/+5min
freshness on plaintext sent_at.
- Reveal Recovery Phrase now requires a fresh passphrase prompt.
Verifies via the same unlockIdentity that the initial unlock
uses. Bonus: works for biometric-only sessions (recovers the
phrase that wasn't in memory before).
- POST /v1/messages per-IP rate limit (60/min, capacity 60, with
a periodic idle-bucket sweep). New rate_limit.rs module + tests.
Security review (Day 3 Option A)
- Unforgeable acks: kind-4244 events now carry a `kez-sig` tag,
the recipient's ed25519 signature over the acked event id.
Sender verifies against the conversation peer's KEZ primary.
Unsigned acks still accepted during the migration window.
- Default `since=` lookback shortened 7d → 48h (matches relay
retention).
- Bounded concurrency on push fanout: tokio::sync::Semaphore(32).
Security review (Day 3 Option B — nostr ecosystem alignment)
- NIP-65 (kind:10002): publish our relay list so other clients
can discover where to find us.
- NIP-42 AUTH: attachSigner / detachSigner wires the user's seed
into the relay pool so AUTH-gated relays (damus.io DMs) deliver.
- Minimal kind:0 baseline on first session unlock (unblocks
writes on relays that reject unknown pubkeys).
- Acks now include ["p", senderNostrPubkey] for NIP-25 / NIP-10
routing convention.
Web Push end-to-end
- Server-side nostr listener (nostr_listener.rs): the chat-server
subscribes to relays for every registered handle's addr, so
Web Push fires even when chat goes over nostr (the live default).
- Push fanout from messages.rs spawned with bounded concurrency.
- Empty payload (no recipient handle leaked to FCM).
- Self-heal endpoint GET /v1/push/subscriptions/:handle —
auto-re-registers a subscription if server lost it.
- Auto-enable push on first unlock (was opt-in toggle hunt).
- In-chat nudge banner + iOS PWA install hint.
Persistent sessions
- persistent-session.ts: AES-GCM encrypt seed under a
non-extractable IDB key, 30-day sliding-window TTL, restore on
every boot.
- Auto-fetch own kind:0 from nostr on a fresh device so the user
sees their own avatar without re-setting it.
Profile pictures + visual encryption
- Avatar component accepts a `picture` prop (data URL); falls
back to the deterministic identicon when absent.
- profile-store.ts: pick → resize to 256×256 JPEG → save locally
+ publish as NIP-01 kind:0.
- Visual encryption (visual-crypto.ts): keyed Fisher-Yates pixel
permutation + xoshiro256** PRNG. Output is a valid PNG with
scrambled content. Salt embedded as a #kez-visual-v1:<hex>
URL fragment.
- Default ON for new pictures. Strangers see colored noise on
public nostr; contacts see the real face.
- Per-recipient AES wraps embedded in kind:0 content
(kez_visual_keys map). The picture's symmetric key is wrapped
via the same SealedEnvelope crypto our DMs use.
- Self-wrap (sender wraps to their own primary too) so a fresh
device of the same user can descramble its own picture.
- Stranger-view preview thumbnail in Settings (the badge tucked
into the avatar's bottom-right corner — "this is what the
world sees").
- Tap-to-zoom: header avatar in a thread opens a fullscreen
overlay.
Peer-profile resolution
- peer-profile-store.ts: IDB-cached one-shot kind:0 fetch +
descramble.
- peer-profile-cell.svelte.ts: reactive mirror for UI.
- 6h bulk-scan staleness + force-refresh on thread open.
- Avatar usages in Messages.svelte pass peer.picture through.
Local-echo + delivery receipts
- Outbound messages render instantly with status="sending"; flip
to "sent" when ≥1 relay accepts; "delivered" (check-in-circle)
when recipient's client publishes an ack.
- SVG status icons inside the bubble; "via X" footer on outbound.
- Persistent pending-ack queue with retry on next session start.
- Catch-up scan (fetchAcksForEventIds) self-heals delivered
state on conversation open.
- markDeliveredByEventId verifies the ack signature.
Active-relay tracking + reply preference
- SimplePool.trackRelays = true. Capture first-to-accept on send
via Promise.any over per-relay publish promises.
- InboxMessage.via_relay set from pool.seenOn on receive.
- Conversation.peer_via_relay persisted on every inbound DM.
- sendMessage takes `preferRelay` and orders publish targets
accordingly. Acks bias the same way.
- "via relay.X" footer renders on outbound bubbles.
Conversation list polish
- Per-conversation `unread_count` on the Conversation type.
- Bumped on every genuinely-new inbound; reset on thread open.
- Accent-color pill badge in the sidebar (rounds at "99+").
Server-independence fix
- sendMessage skips the /v1/u/:handle lookup when the caller
passes recipientPrimary (which Messages.svelte does, from the
cached peer_primary on the conversation row). Chat over nostr
no longer breaks when the chat-server is down — only brand-new
conversations still need the directory lookup.
Relay set
- Added wss://relay.snort.social and wss://nostr.wine to the
default pool (was 3, now 5).
Fast-deploy infrastructure (new in this batch)
- Dockerfile gains an `export` scratch stage (extracts binary +
web/dist only).
- Dockerfile.runtime: tiny runtime image that COPYs prebuilt
artifacts — no rust/npm on the remote.
- docker-compose.fast.yml: compose override pointing chat-server
build at Dockerfile.runtime.
- .dockerignore: excludes target/, node_modules/, prebuilt/,
.buildx-cache/, .git, *.db. Critical: without this, an earlier
bug had the buildx cache nested under the build context and
blew up to 17GB by feeding itself into itself.
- Old: ~10 min remote build. New: 3–5 min local + 5s remote
runtime swap. Cache lives at ~/.cache/kez-chat-buildx
(outside any project tree).
UI polish (margins, layout, banners)
- Authenticated routes (Welcome / Settings / Identity / Dashboard
/ Claims / AddClaim) wrapped in max-w-2xl mx-auto px-4 py-6.
- WhatsApp-style chat bubbles: shrink-wrap to content, asymmetric
rounded corners, inline bottom-right timestamp.
- Push-notification nudge banner at top of /chats with iOS
install hint.
- Relay state popover off the "● live (N)" indicator.
WebAuthn biometric fix
- user.id now uses the raw 32-byte ed25519 pubkey (was the
72-byte "ed25519:<hex>" identity string, which exceeded
WebAuthn's 64-byte limit — Android Chrome rejected it with
"user handle exceeds 64 bytes").
Documentation
- kez-chat/TODO.md tracks every reviewer finding with status,
file:line references, and a phased plan. All Day 1-3 items
marked DONE; remaining roadmap items (Double Ratchet,
WebAuthn-gated rehydrate, addr rotation, NIP-65 peer-relay
fetch on send) documented for future sprints.

# Compose override for the "deploy fast" path. Layer on top of the

# a-tiny-runtime-image-using-the-prebuilt-binary.

# Usage on the remote (handled by deploy-fast.local.sh):

# The build context shrinks from the entire repo root to just this

# deploy/ directory — meaning rsync only has to ship the prebuilt
|

# binary + SPA, not the rust/, kez-chat/, and rust-sig-server/ trees.
|
|
#
|
|
# sig-server is left alone (it still does its own build); only
|
|
# chat-server needs the fast path right now.
