-TCP/network Nomad Links use path-scaled proof budgets (`link_hops = clamp(path_hops, 3, 7)` → ~18–42s), matching released v5.25.0 multi-hop behavior more closely than #756’s flat ~18s cap (a HEAD regression for slower hub peers).

+TCP/network Nomad Links use path-scaled initiator hops (`link_hops = clamp(path_hops, 3, 7)`) and a LinkClient proof wait of the **remaining overall MeshChat deadline** (~45s TCP after instant pubkey recall), matching v5.25.0. Do not cap LRPROOF at hops×6 or a 30s floor — that false-failed multi-hop hub pages that still load on release. First attempts use a cached path when present (no DropPath storm); missing paths RequestPath briefly and may return `path_timeout`.

UI errors distinguish cached-path vs rediscovered-path link failures.
 
 **Cause**: Older `LinkClient` always waited for a fresh path-response announce for the destination public key, even when Nomad announces had already cached it. Successful fetches could also deregister all `nomadnetwork.node` announce handlers. Distant/high-hop nodes can still time out at the path stage (expected RF/mesh reachability limits).

-Cap `LinkClient::query` proof wait at `link.establishment_timeout` so a cached path cannot burn the entire overall Nomad deadline (MeshChat TCP link stage ~15s). Apply **after** the LinkClient Nomad overlay.
+Keep `LinkClient::query` proof wait on the **remaining overall deadline** (v5.25.0 / release parity). Earlier overlays capped at `establishment_timeout` (hops×6) or `max(establishment, 30s)` and false-failed multi-hop TCP hub Nomad pages (e.g. Northern Ireland) that need the rest of the MeshChat 45s window. Apply **after** the LinkClient Nomad overlay; the apply script migrates those older caps to remaining-deadline.
