March 2025 highlights for gofractally/psibase: Delivered a responsive UI overhaul with data-driven sub-navigation and resizable panels, enabling faster, device-agnostic workflows. Implemented core messaging improvements in the compose flow with sending messages and saving drafts, plus UI refinements in mail detail and message rendering. Fixed critical reliability issues: corrected recipient delivery, addressed TimePointSec handling in the Chainmail plugin, and strengthened not-logged-in state handling to improve security and user flows. Modernized validation and data handling with Zod-based validation and useMutation hooks, and moved UI/data hooks to usehooks-ts implementations. Cleaned up architecture and UI debt by removing the old Chainmail UI, linking the new dashboard, improving import sorting, and removing accidentally-added submodules. These changes reduce risk, improve developer velocity, and deliver more reliable, scalable user experiences.

Jan 1, 2025

Month: 2025-01 — This period delivered security-forward boot enhancements, multi-host deployment capabilities, and reliability improvements for the gofractally/psibase stack, translating to stronger production security, greater deployment flexibility, and improved developer experience. Key features delivered include (1) Server Key Management and AuthSig Integration: boot chain now uses the server public key, imports the server key into the AuthSig plugin, and sets the private key on production boot; (2) Development Boot improvements: Keyless Account Import to streamline development workflows; (3) Boot flow with multi-host configuration and HSM-backed production boot: supports multiple hosts, key device selection/unlock steps, and localhost production boot with enhanced pre-boot UI; (4) Accounts Service improvements: BP Account Import and ImportRefactor to reintroduce importAccount with dependencies addressed; (5) Production and UI refinements: higher compression for production boot and UI adjustments. Major bugs fixed include Development boot selection issues, non-secure HTTP handling for Development, removal of an admin importKey replacement, cleanup of UI logging, x-admin boot UI host fixes, configuration hosts page fix, HTTPS restriction enforcement on production, improved error handling for key devices and fetch failures, and secure context handling fixes. Overall impact: enhanced security posture (server-key-based boot, HSM integration, HTTPS-only production), greater deployment flexibility (multi-host and localhost production boot), improved reliability (development boot fixes and error handling), performance gains (production boot compression), and better maintainability and user experience (refactors, UI improvements, and log cleanup). Technologies/skills demonstrated: cryptographic key management, HSM integration, AuthSig, secure boot workflows, multi-host orchestration, feature/bug-driven development, UI/UX refinements, and robust error handling.
