2026-06-16 17:12:32 +00:00 | 17 commits to main since this releaseA reliability and polish release, with most of the new work aimed at operators.
The optional Matrix alert bot is now something you set up and verify with two
short commands instead of hand-editing systemd, and several bugs that quietly
stopped it from starting on a fresh deploy are fixed. On the visitor side, the
home page and order book start faster, the "new version available" banner now
appears promptly when you come back to the tab, and a trade chat can offer a
one-tap prompt to turn on reply notifications. A wrong description of the
welcome bonus in the FAQ was corrected in every language.For operators: there's nothing required beyond deploying this build. If you want
Matrix alerts,morphit-ops matrix set @you:your.serverturns them on and
morphit-ops matrix testsends you a real test alert so you know delivery works
end to end. If you upgrade from beta.19 and had configured the alert bot, this
build is the first one where its service unit actually starts cleanly.Improved
- The home page and order book load faster. The browser no longer pulls the
elliptic-curve signing and seed-phrase libraries (and the Blurt client) into
the very first page load on pages that don't need them. First-paint JavaScript
on the home page dropped by roughly a fifth. These libraries still load the
moment you do something that needs them — create an account, sign in, open an
encrypted chat — and not before. - The "a new version is available" banner now appears promptly. It used to
rely on a slow background timer, so on mobile it could take several minutes to
notice a freshly deployed build (and on a desktop tab that was already up to
date it correctly showed nothing). It now re-checks the instant you bring the
tab back to the foreground, or when your connection comes back, so the prompt
shows up within a beat of an update being available. - Optional reply notifications inside a trade chat. When you open a trade
conversation, Morphit can offer a small, dismissible prompt to turn on chat
notifications so you're pinged when the other person replies even with the tab
closed. It rides the same private web-push mechanism the rest of the app uses
— an opaque browser endpoint, no email, phone number, or other personal detail
— and "Not now" hides it for good.
For operators
- Manage the Matrix alert bot with
morphit-ops matrix. The alert bot is
installed by default but only runs once you give it a valid Matrix username to
notify.morphit-ops matrix set @you:your.serverturns it on (and starts it),
morphit-ops matrix clearturns it off (and stops it), andmorphit-ops matrix
shows its current status. Upgrades re-check the setting automatically, so the
bot's running state always matches your configuration. - Confirm alerts actually reach you with
morphit-ops matrix test. One
command asks the running bot to send you a clearly-labelled test alert DM, so
you can verify the whole delivery path — token, direct message, encryption —
without the old manual log-watching dance. (The first message from the bot
arrives as a room invite you accept once.) - The alert bot's service unit now starts cleanly on a fresh deploy. Three
packaging bugs that could stop the unit from starting — a mount path it never
used, the wrong launcher path, and an over-restrictive/procsetting that
broke its log reader — are fixed. - Alerts from the shell-based system monitors now reliably reach the bot. On
some hosts, alerts emitted by the host/disk/firewall/etc. monitors were landing
in the journal without the unit attribution the bot filters on, so the bot
silently missed them. They now flow through the path that carries reliable
attribution. (If your indexer and relay are your only alert sources, you were
unaffected either way.)
Fixed
- The FAQ described the welcome bonus incorrectly. One FAQ answer said new
traders receive "10 BP delegated"; the welcome bonus is actually 10 Blurt plus
10 Blurt Power granted (powered up and owned, not a revocable delegation),
and it omitted the liquid Blurt entirely. This was corrected in all ten
languages, and a related reward-description wording fix was made in the two
Chinese locales. The fee and reward reference docs were brought into line.
Under the hood
- A slimmed production install can no longer break the services at launch.
The indexer, relay, Matrix bot, and MCP server all run their TypeScript source
throughtsxat runtime, but several of them only declaredtsxas a dev
dependency — so a production-style install (npm install --omit=dev,
NODE_ENV=production) would have stripped it and stopped those services from
starting.tsxis now a regular dependency wherever a service runs it, and a
new check fails the build if that ever regresses. - The
/devdiagnostic pages are disabled in production builds. The internal
diagnostic pages (icon catalogue, responsive-layout preview, and a hardware
security-key probe) were reachable on a deployed site. They now return "not
found" in a production build and are available only when running the app
locally for development. - DNS-rebinding hardening on the alert bot's local self-test endpoint, plus
a small set of audit-driven accuracy fixes across the documentation. - Dependency-licensing transparency. A
THIRD-PARTY-LICENSES.mdnow documents
that the dependency tree is otherwise fully permissive except for one
source-available (no-military-use) runtime library, and a new check fails the
build if any non-free dependency license is introduced.
