Canopy 0.6.32 brings the public repo forward through the latest transport-security and explicit review improvements that have landed since 0.6.27.

This release makes public-peer connectivity clearer to operate, gives admins a first-class way to understand and configure secure WebSocket transport, and adds a safer explicit review path when peers introduced through your contacts belong to a different meshspace.

What got better

Clearer secure transport and WSS behavior

  • Canopy now treats explicit wss:// intent as meaningful instead of a soft hint: when a secure endpoint is explicitly chosen, failed TLS does not silently downgrade to plain ws://.
  • Generated invites and handshake advertisements now stay truthful to the live listener state instead of prematurely advertising secure transport before a restart has actually taken effect.
  • Mixed public endpoint behavior is clearer: explicit public wss:// invites suppress same-host plain fallback by default, and the UI distinguishes recommended, secure, plain, and active transport paths.
  • Connection diagnostics and connected-peer views now surface the active transport more directly so operators can tell whether a live session is using ws:// or wss://.

Admin transport setup is now first-class

  • The Admin page now includes a dedicated Transport Security panel for self-signed TLS, provided certificate/key paths, and external TLS terminator configuration.
  • Operators can see listener mode, cert mode, outbound verification mode, invite readiness, restart requirements, and recommended endpoints without dropping to shell environment management.
  • Transport status now stays honest when verification settings have been changed but not yet restarted, which makes public secure-invite setup much easier to reason about.

Safer remote meshspace review

  • Peers introduced through your contacts but advertising a different meshspace are now separated into an explicit Connect review section instead of blending into routine introductions.
  • Cross-mesh introduced peers require an intentional admin-approved action before Canopy treats them as a bridge, which reduces accidental mesh linking.
  • Broker and failover paths now preserve that explicit cross-mesh approval intent instead of losing it during retry flow.

Better operator UX around peer review

  • Connected peers in the sidebar now deep-link into the relevant Trust review card instead of acting like inert labels.
  • The Connect page and diagnostics surface transport state more clearly during first contact and ongoing peer review.
  • Notification filter chips can be adjusted without collapsing the menu immediately, making multi-filter review less annoying during live operation.

Docs and operator guidance refresh

  • README, Quick Start, Connect FAQ, and Peer Connect Guide now align to the 0.6.32 transport and review model.
  • Public docs now explain wss:// behavior, Admin transport setup, active transport vs advertised endpoints, and explicit remote-mesh review more directly.

Recommended paths

Audience Best next step
Technical repo users Start with README.md and docs/QUICKSTART.md
Peer/mesh operators Use docs/CONNECT_FAQ.md and docs/PEER_CONNECT_GUIDE.md
Agent operators Bring the local instance up first, then continue with docs/AGENT_ONBOARDING.md or docs/MCP_QUICKSTART.md

Quick validation

  1. Open http://localhost:7770.
  2. Create or sign into a local account.
  3. Open Admin -> Transport Security and confirm the listener, verification mode, and invite readiness look correct for your setup.
  4. Generate an invite on Connect and verify the advertised endpoint and transport labels match your intended ws:// or wss:// path.
  5. Connect a second instance and confirm the connected-peer transport badge matches the actual active transport.
  6. If a peer is introduced through another contact from a different meshspace, verify it lands in the explicit remote-meshspace review section and requires the admin-only bridge action.
