Relay nodes run in store-and-forward mode with no local gate configs,
so gate_manager.can_enter() always returned "Gate does not exist" —
silently rejecting every pushed gate message. This broke cross-node
gate message delivery entirely since no relay ever stored anything.
Relay mode now skips the gate-existence check after signature
verification passes, allowing encrypted gate blobs to flow through.
Phase 1 — Transport layer fix:
- Bake in default MESH_PEER_PUSH_SECRET so peer push, real-time
propagation, and pull-sync all work out of the box instead of
silently no-oping on an empty secret.
- Pass secret through docker-compose.yml for container deployments.
Phase 2 — Per-gate content keys:
- Generate a cryptographically random 32-byte secret per gate on
creation (and backfill existing gates on startup).
- Upgrade HKDF envelope encryption to use per-gate secret as IKM
so knowing a gate name alone no longer decrypts messages.
- 3-tier decryption fallback (phase2 key → legacy name-only →
legacy node-local) preserves backward compatibility.
- Expose gate_secret via list_gates API for authorized members.

- Derive gate envelope AES key from gate ID via HKDF so all nodes
sharing a gate can decrypt each other's messages (was node-local)
- Preserve gate_envelope/reply_to in chain payload normalization
- Bump Wormhole modal text from 9-10px to 12-13px
- Add aircraft icon zoom interpolation (0.8→2.0 across zoom 5-12)
- Reduce Mesh Chat panel text sizes for tighter layout
Docker/Linux containers have no DPAPI or native keyring, causing all
wormhole persona/gate/identity endpoints to crash with
SecureStorageError. Detect /.dockerenv and auto-allow raw fallback
so mesh features work out of the box in Docker.
Gate messages now propagate via the Infonet hashchain as encrypted blobs — every node syncs them
through normal chain sync while only Gate members with MLS keys can decrypt. Added mesh reputation
system, peer push workers, voluntary Wormhole opt-in for node participation, fork recovery,
killwormhole scripts, obfuscated terminology, and hardened the self-updater to protect encryption
keys and chain state during updates.
New features: Shodan search, train tracking, Sentinel Hub imagery, 8 new intelligence layers,
CCTV expansion to 11,000+ cameras across 6 countries, Mesh Terminal CLI, prediction markets,
desktop-shell scaffold, and comprehensive mesh test suite (215 frontend + backend tests passing).
