Two bugs the v0.6.2 Discover story was going to expose:
1) Many named personas don't have a profile post yet, so the planned
profile-post-driven Discover listing would show them as headless.
Existing personas predate the Phase 2d profile-post primitive, and
imported personas arrive with a display_name but no matching post.
2) Fresh install always generates a blank disposable persona before
the user can pick fresh-vs-import. If the user picks import, that
blank persona lingers forever — visible in the Personas list, a
potential default, confusing.
Fixes:
Profile-post backfill (node.rs):
- New `Node::backfill_profile_posts_for_named_personas`: scans posting
identities, skips unnamed or already-covered ones, and emits a
signed profile post at the persona's own `created_at` timestamp. Run
once from `Node::open_with_bind` after migrations. Idempotent via
the new `Storage::has_profile_post_by_author` check. Chronology is
preserved (post timestamp matches persona creation), so a later
genuine profile update the user authors always wins the `> old_ts`
monotonicity check on receivers.
- `Node::create_posting_identity(name)`: if `name` is non-empty, emits
the profile post inline so new named personas are Discover-able the
moment they're created. Uses the new `publish_profile_post_as`
helper, which signs with the persona's own secret (not the default
posting secret) and propagates via `update_neighbor_manifests_as`.
First-run persona marker + targeted prune (node.rs + storage.rs + import):
- `Node::open_with_bind`'s auto-gen block now also writes
`first_run_auto_persona_id = <hex>` into the settings kv. This marks
the specific disposable persona from the fresh-install flow; later
prune logic uses this id, not a "any empty persona" rule, so manual
empty personas are never touched.
- `Node::try_prune_first_run_auto_persona`: deletes the marked id iff
all four gates pass — still exists, no display_name, no authored
posts, no authored reactions/comments, and it's no longer the
current default. Any one failure → clear the marker and keep the
persona. New storage helpers `has_any_post_by_author`,
`has_any_engagement_by_author` back the check.
- `set_profile` clears the marker when a non-empty name lands on the
marked persona (user claimed it).
- `storage.delete_setting(key)` — new one-line helper.
- `import_as_personas_cmd` in tauri-app calls the prune after import
completes; the cmd's return message reports "(cleared blank starter
persona)" when it fires.
- New `get_first_run_auto_persona_id` Tauri command so the frontend
can filter the blank persona out of the Personas list while it
still exists.
- Frontend `loadPersonas` filters the marker id out of
`personasCache` before rendering.
Tests: 124 / 124 core tests pass.
