Audit H5 (Alto, public). The control plane was signed but plaintext, so a
network MITM could read all metadata (subjects, endpoints, public keys, sealed
keys, blob hashes, the social graph) and drop requests. Signing gives integrity,
not confidentiality.
- membershipd serves the control plane over TLS (ListenAndServeTLS, MinVersion
1.2) with the same CA-signed cert as the data plane when --tls-cert is set; the
fail-open guard already requires --bus-auth enforce alongside it.
- The client gets a separate Options.CtrlTLS so the HTTP client pins the bus CA,
independent of the NATS data-plane TLS. Connect now sets both planes' TLS from
the one CA and REFUSES a plaintext http:// control-plane URL when a CA is
provided, so metadata is never sent in the clear when TLS is expected.
Connect's signature is unchanged; callers (worker/chat --ca, mobile NewSession)
must pass an https:// control-plane URL when they pass a CA. Documented for the
deploy step.

client.Connect is the single migration seam: a non-empty caPath connects with
TLS pinned to the bus CA plus nkey auth (matching enforce + bus-tls), an empty
caPath keeps the legacy plaintext dev connection; control-plane requests are
signed either way. worker and chat gain a --ca flag; the gomobile NewSession
gains a caPath parameter so the Android app bundles ca.crt and connects
securely. Every peer now flows through one code path.

busauth.LoadCATLSConfig turns a ca.crt path into a *tls.Config trusting only
that private CA (clients must pin it; the system roots would reject a
self-signed server cert). busauth.ServerTLSConfig loads the server keypair.
client.Options gains TLS; NewWithOptions calls nats.Secure when set, so the
data-plane connection is encrypted and the server pinned.

nats.go refuses to connect with an nkey to a server that does not advertise
nkey auth, so the connection cannot blindly always present one. New keeps the
legacy plain connection; NewWithOptions(Options{UseNkey:true}) presents the
peer's identity-derived nkey. NewWithOptions is the single place the data-plane
connection is built, so every peer gets identical behavior from the same
Options (TLS fields arrive in phase 0001d).

doJSON, putBlob and getBlob now go through newSignedRequest, which attaches
X-Unibus-Pub/Ts/Nonce/Sig signing membership.CanonicalRequest with the peer's
Ed25519 key. GETs are signed too so the server can authenticate the caller
uniformly under enforce. The payload-level owner signature (invite/rekey)
is unchanged and coexists with this transport-level signature.

A peer invited to an encrypted room needs to find it: the control plane is
pull-based (no server push of invitations), so add a discovery endpoint that
lists every room an endpoint belongs to, with the room's metadata and the
endpoint's role.
- store.ListRoomsForEndpoint: JOIN members+rooms, ordered by room id, empty
slice (not error) for an endpoint in no rooms.
- membershipd: GET /members/{endpoint}/rooms returns {room_id, subject, epoch,
policy, role}[].
- client.ListMyRooms + RoomRef: a bot polls this to discover and then Join +
Subscribe rooms it was invited to.
Tests: store-level (owner in N rooms, member in one, unknown endpoint → []) and
client-level e2e through the embedded harness (B discovers a room A invited it
to, without prior knowledge of the room id; owner sees role=owner).

Chat bots need replies, threads and reactions. Add two optional, omitempty
envelope fields (ThreadID, ReplyTo) plus a REACT frame type. The fields ride the
cleartext envelope (message-id references, not secret content) and are omitted
when unset, so non-threaded frames are byte-for-byte identical on the wire and
their signatures unchanged — a non-breaking, additive change.
Client gains PublishReply (threaded reply) and React (emoji reaction). The
reaction content travels in the payload, so it is sealed like any message and
stays confidential in E2E rooms; receivers dispatch on Frame.Type == REACT and
read Frame.ReplyTo for the target. Publish is refactored to share one
publishFrame path with the new helpers; its behavior is unchanged.
Tests: frame round-trip of a threaded REACT frame (golden), non-threaded
wire/sig back-compat asserting thr/re keys are absent (edge), Unmarshal of
garbage errors (error path), and an end-to-end reply+reaction round-trip in an
encrypted ModeMatrix room.

- membership server returns 403 + human-readable message on missing sealed key (was leaking 'sql: no rows in result set')
- client doJSON unwraps the server's {"error"} field instead of pasting the raw HTTP envelope
