Milestone 2 for the native Cordn client.
- Session now runs on the viewer's own signer (NIP-07/Amber/nsec) instead of a
raw key, so the Cordn identity is the user's pubkey. Added idbStore.ts
(Dexie 'SkateSpotsCordnDB', one snapshot per account) so MLS state survives a
reload, plus membership delivery: requestJoin / fetchJoinRequests /
fetchWelcomes / acceptWelcome / addMemberByIdentifier, and addMember now also
stores the Welcome on the coordinator for the target.
- useCordnNative owns the session lifecycle and lazy-imports the native module,
keeping @contextvm/sdk + ts-mls in a separate ~678 kB async chunk (entry
bundle unchanged at 1.9 MB).
- CordnNativePanel: a third 'Private chat' tab on the crew page — founder/admin
create the group and approve join requests; members ask to join and check for
an invite; live message list + composer (polling only for silent signers).
- Strings in i18n/legacy/cordnUi.ts (en/es).
Verified live against our coordinator with a new scenario
(join-request -> approve -> welcome) plus the existing two; npm test + smoke
pass. Not yet exercised in a real browser (browser tooling was offline this
session) — the dynamic-import failure path degrades to an inline error.
Add src/lib/cordn/native/ — a browser-safe Cordn client doing real RFC 9420
MLS over a ContextVM coordinator, mirroring Cordn's wire contract (reimplemented,
not copied from @cordn/cli).
- mls.ts: identity, key packages, group create/add/join, application messages,
the ChaCha20-Poly1305 coordinator wrapper, causal prev tags.
- coordinator.ts: ContextVM/MCP-over-Nostr client on @contextvm/sdk, validated
with @cordn/core schemas.
- session.ts: CordnSession (key packages, createGroup, addMember->Welcome,
joinGroup, send, fetch) with persistence behind an injectable CordnStore
(MemoryCordnStore today; IndexedDB adapter TODO).
- Verified end-to-end against our own coordinator: a two-member round trip
(CORDN_LIVE=1 vitest run native.live.test.ts) — create, add, join, and
bidirectional encrypted messages with proven senders.
Deps: @cordn/core, @contextvm/mcp-sdk, @noble/ciphers pinned 2.2.0 (fixes the
previously invalid tree: ts-mls wants 2.2.0, a stale root copy was 0.5.3).
src/test/setup.ts is now guarded for node-environment test files. Not wired to
any UI yet; nothing imports the module, so the web bundle is unchanged.
Close the metadata gap: the outer kind-4497 envelope was signed with the
sender's real key, so a coordinator/relay could see exactly who was talking.
- buildEnvelope now signs each envelope with a fresh ephemeral key (NIP-59
style) — the coordinator never learns the sender.
- Authorship moves inside the ciphertext: a new v2 sealed payload
(`nip44-group-v2`) carries a fully-signed inner author-proof event (kind 4498)
bound to the crew via an `a` tag. openGroupMessage verifies the signature,
author, content match, and group binding — so authorship stays unforgeable and
a proof can't be replayed into another crew.
- Transport trusts the verified v2 proof and surfaces the real sender; legacy
v1 envelopes remain readable (outer-key binding) for back-compat.
- NIP.md updated with the v2 format + an honest note on the residual
verbatim-replay caveat (full replay/forward-secrecy hardening lands with MLS).
Scope decision: kept to crew chat only. Regular 1:1/group DMs already use NIP-17
gift wrap (ephemeral keys, sealed per recipient) and have no coordinator, so
they need no change and stay idiot-proof.

The crew coordinator is no longer just a pointer — when a crew configures one,
the Chat tab runs through it for real.
- src/lib/cordn: clean transport/crypto split so an MLS (ts-mls) upgrade is a
drop-in swap of the crypto layer only.
- types.ts: CordnMessage/CordnEndpoint + envelope kind 4497 + app tag.
- crypto.ts: sealGroupMessage/openGroupMessage — real NIP-44 group encryption
(per-recipient sealing), the exact seam MLS encrypt-to-epoch slots into.
- client.ts: buildEnvelope/publishEnvelope/fetchGroupMessages with per-group
cursor ordering and ciphertext→author sender binding (anti-spoof).
- endpoint.ts: resolve a crew's `coordinator` to a usable relay endpoint
(wss/ws direct; https falls back to the ContextVM relay).
- useCordnChat: fetch-then-poll hook mirroring the NIP-17 chat API.
- CrewChat: uses Cordn when the crew has a coordinator, NIP-17 fallback
otherwise; header badge shows the active transport (Cordn vs Private).
- CrewCoordinatorCard: reflects that private chat is live.
- NIP.md: document envelope kind 4497, delivery (fetch-then-poll + cursors),
the nip44-group sealed content, and the honest crypto→MLS seam.
Real encryption, real coordinator routing, non-breaking (fallback intact),
with the MLS ratchet as a clearly-marked next step.
