-* Mesh join — the challenge–response that authenticates a node to the hub
-* (D802). Shared by the hub (`$hub.joinChallenge` / `$hub.authenticateNode`)
-* and the agent (`MeshJoinClient`).
-*
-* The exchange, over the clear-text Moleculer transport:
-*
-*   agent → hub   `$hub.joinChallenge {}`                        → { nonce }
-*   agent → hub   `$hub.authenticateNode { nodeId, nonce,

-*   K        = SHA-256(cluster secret)   — the value each side already holds
-*
-* What it buys over the D797 hash (`clusterSecretHash` in `registerNode`):
-*  - nothing reusable crosses the wire: the nonce is the hub's, single use,
-*    short-lived and bound to the SENDER node id, so a sniffed proof answers a
-*    challenge that no longer exists;
-*  - the agent authenticates the HUB too (`hubProof` over the agent's own
-*    nonce): a rogue node answering to `hub` on the LAN — found through UDP
-*    discovery — cannot prove it knows the secret, and the agent refuses it.
-*
-* What it does NOT buy: the transport stays clear text, and the sender node id
-* of every later packet is self-declared. A LAN host that watches a node join
-* can still spoof that node id afterwards. Only mutual TLS (the next step,
-* `docs/design/2026-10-09-mesh-mtls-plan.md`) closes that.
