* Add capability bits to announce TLV Announces now carry an optional capabilities TLV (0x05): a little-endian bitfield with named bits for upcoming features (prekeys, wifiBulk, gateway, groups, board, vouch, meshDiagnostics). Old clients skip the unknown TLV; peers without it decode as nil so features can distinguish "legacy peer" from "advertises nothing". PeerCapabilities lives in BitFoundation with a minimal-length encoding that preserves unknown bits for forward compatibility. Peer capabilities are stored in the BLE peer registry on verified announce and exposed via BLEService.peerCapabilities(_:). The local advertisement set is empty until each feature ships its bit. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * Prekey bundles: forward-secret async first contact for courier mail Courier envelopes were sealed with one-way Noise X to the recipient's long-lived static key, so a later compromise of that key exposed every envelope captured in transit. This adds one-time prekey bundles: - PrekeyBundle (MessageType 0x24): 8 one-time Curve25519 public prekeys bound to the owner's Noise static key by an Ed25519 signature over "bitchat-prekey-bundle-v1" canonical bytes; gossiped mesh-wide on its own 60s sync round (SyncTypeFlags bit 9, 200-peer cap, 24h freshness) and verified against the announce-bound signing key before caching. - Sealed envelope v2: Noise X where the responder static is the one-time prekey, prologue "bitchat-prekey-v1" || prekeyID. Sender identity rides encrypted inside and is authenticated exactly like v1 (blocked-sender check included). CourierEnvelope gains an optional prekeyID TLV that v1 decoders skip as unknown. - Local prekeys live in the Keychain; consumed privates survive a 48h grace window for spray-and-wait redeliveries, then are deleted (the forward-secrecy clock starts at deletion). The batch tops back up and re-gossips when unconsumed count drops below 3, and everything is wiped in panic mode. - Routing: courier sealing picks a cached verified bundle when one exists (one prekey per message, reused across deposit retries), with the advertised .prekeys capability as a veto for on-mesh peers, and falls back to static sealing otherwise. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * Prekeys: authenticate bundle packets, fix consume-republish, deflake CI Fixes the prekey-bundle PR review + CI failure: - CI root cause: the receive queue (mesh.message) is concurrent, so a gossiped prekey bundle can be processed before the announce that binds its owner's signing key. The old handler dropped such bundles outright, so under CI parallel load the bundle was permanently lost and the cache/gossip tests flaked (verifiedBundleEntersGossipStore, prekeySealedMailTravelsViaCourierAndOpens). Bundles that arrive before their binding are now retained per-owner (bounded) and re-attempted when the verified announce lands, atomically to avoid a check-then-act race. - Authenticate the OUTER prekey-bundle packet (Codex P2 / review MEDIUM): require senderID == PeerID(bundle.noiseStaticPublicKey) and verify the packet's Ed25519 signature (covers senderID + timestamp) against the owner's bound signing key, in addition to the inner bundle signature. Stops replay under a fresh timestamp / fake senderID. - Key the gossip prekey-bundle store/dedup by the bundle's authenticated identity (noiseStaticPublicKey), not the unauthenticated packet senderID, so one valid bundle sprayed under many fabricated sender IDs can't multiply entries and exhaust the 200-owner cap. - Bump published-bundle generatedAt strictly on consume (Codex P1): consuming a prekey shrinks the published bundle, so it now republishes with a strictly newer generatedAt and re-gossips, so peers replace the cached copy and stop assigning the consumed ID before its 48h grace. - Guard the panic/clear detached Application Support tree-deletes behind TestEnvironment.isRunningTests: the SPM test process shares that tree, so the wipe could land mid-test and flake file-dependent tests. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * Update sync tests for prekeyBundle as bit 9 / default sync round Prekeys makes bit 9 (prekeyBundle) a known SyncTypeFlags bit and enables a prekey sync round by default. That broke tests authored by other PRs that assumed bit 9 was phantom or that only their own sync round fires: - SyncTypeFlags(Board)Tests: move the "unknown bits" probes to bits 10+ (0xFE -> 0xFC / 0xFD), since bit 9 is now assigned. - GossipSync(Board)Tests + GossipSyncManagerTests: disable the prekey sync round in configs that run maintenance (as they already do for message/ fragment/fileTransfer), so they isolate the behavior under test. Full app suite (1301 tests) green locally via SPM.

Test Harness Guide
This test suite uses an in-memory networking harness to make end-to-end and integration tests deterministic, fast, and race-free without touching production code.
In-Memory Bus
- File:
bitchatTests/Mocks/MockBLEService.swift - Registry/Adjacency: Global
registrymapspeerIDto aMockBLEServiceinstance;adjacencyrecords simulated links between peers. - Setup: Call
MockBLEService.resetTestBus()insetUp()to clear state between tests. - Topology: Use
simulateConnectedPeer(_:)andsimulateDisconnectedPeer(_:)to add/remove links.connectFullMesh()helpers in tests build larger topologies. - Handlers: Tests can observe data via
messageDeliveryHandler(decodedBitchatMessage) andpacketDeliveryHandler(rawBitchatPacket). - De‑duplication: A thread-safe
seenMessageIDsprevents duplicate deliveries during flooding/relays.
Broadcast Flooding
- Flag:
MockBLEService.autoFloodEnabled - Intent: When
true, public broadcasts propagate across the entire connected component (ignores TTL for reach) while still de‑duping to prevent loops. - Usage: Enabled in Integration tests (
setUp) to simulate large-network broadcast; disabled in E2E tests to keep routing explicit and verify TTL behavior (seePublicChatE2ETests.testZeroTTLNotRelayed).
Rehandshake Flow (Noise)
- Why: The legacy NACK recovery path was removed; recovery now relies on Noise session rehandshake after decrypt failure or desync.
- Manager:
NoiseSessionManagermanages per-peer sessions. - Pattern: On decrypt failure, proactively clear the local session and re-initiate a handshake. The peer accepts and replaces their session.
- Test:
IntegrationTests.testRehandshakeAfterDecryptionFailure- Corrupts ciphertext to induce a decrypt error.
- Calls
removeSession(for:)on the initiator’s manager beforeinitiateHandshake(with:)to avoidalreadyEstablished. - Verifies encrypt/decrypt succeeds post-rehandshake.
Tips
- Determinism: Add small async delays only where handler installation/topology changes could race the first send.
- Scoping: Keep
autoFloodEnabledtoggled only within Integration tests; always reset intearDown()to avoid cross-test contamination. - Direct vs Relay: Private messages target a specific peer when adjacent; otherwise they are surfaced to neighbors for relay and, if known, also delivered to the target.
Quick Start
- Create nodes and connect them:
let svc = MockBLEService(); svc.myPeerID = "PEER1"svc.simulateConnectedPeer("PEER2")
- Observe messages:
svc.messageDeliveryHandler = { msg in /* asserts */ }
- Enable broadcast flooding for Integration suites only:
MockBLEService.autoFloodEnabled = true
