mrambossekandClaude Opus 5 8118e213ae server: upstream trains, observed TTL/DSCP/ECN, rate limits, action ids
Types 0x03/0x04/0x05 land with a bounded columnar train buffer (head kept,
truncation declared) and grant-free multi-part reports - a report row is
smaller than the packet it answers, so $3.4 holds without a grant. The
read loop now collects TTL/TOS cmsgs on Linux, replacing the 0xFF stubs in
the observation block with what the kernel saw; downtrain gained a dscp
parameter, so DSCP survival is measurable in both directions.

Rate limiting ($2.5) exists now: per-credential AND per-source buckets,
429 on the control plane, silent drop on the data plane after the HMAC
gate and before the replay window. UDP ceilings default above the largest
legitimate run - a limit that clips a real measurement produces a
confidently wrong number.

Every granted packet carries its action_id at payload[8:16]; overlapping
actions were unattributable before. Canary DNS logs now honor the stated
24h privacy default. /admin/enroll-tokens answers the spec's JSON shape.
protocol_version 1.0.1 (additive).

mrambossekandClaude Fable 5 ce1aaa332a server: send granted traffic from the address the session actually used
server-release / image (push) Successful in 15s
server-test / test (push) Successful in 30s
server-release / release (push) Successful in 30s
fmr binds two IPv4 addresses. connFor picked whichever socket of the right
family came first in the bind list, so a downtrain for a session established on
.150 went out from .151 — and every packet was dropped by the client's NAT,
which has no mapping for that pair. tcpdump on the server showed all 50 leaving;
the client saw none. Read as "100% downstream loss", which is the worst kind of
wrong: a confident measurement of something that never happened.

Sessions now record which of our own bound addresses received their traffic, and
granted sends (and delayed echo) go back out through that socket. The fallback
to a family match is kept for the case where nothing has been received yet, and
the test pins both paths — a single-homed lab can never reproduce this.

Also: the client-side halves of the same work — anonymizer (core-privacy), local
run archive with retention (core-archive), upload client, and the app's settings
and history screens.

mrambossekandClaude Fable 5 2521d39989 server: DF-mode big_send + uploaded-run storage with an operator policy
big_send now forces the Don't-Fragment bit for the whole burst by default, so
the largest size that arrives IS the downstream path MTU rather than "fragments
got through" — two different measurements the schema already separates. Sizes
above our own egress MTU (from the startup self-test) are refused up front and
reported as max_df_bytes, because absence caused by our kernel must not be read
as a limit of the client's path.

Uploads: one JSON file per run under the state dir, with the policy the operator
actually cares about — who may upload (off / anonymous / account), how large,
how long to keep, and the least anonymization accepted. The profile advertises
all of it so the app can present the switch honestly instead of discovering the
rules by failing. `account` refuses today rather than falling back to anonymous:
picking the strict setting before OIDC lands must not silently mean the loose one.

mrambossekandClaude Opus 5 7e1015c211 server: §3.4 asymmetric grants + downtrain and big_send actions
server-test / test (push) Successful in 29s
server-release / image (push) Successful in 34s
server-release / release (push) Successful in 29s
The grant is the keystone that makes server->client sends safe: created
only by an authenticated control-plane action, bound at creation to the
session's OBSERVED data-plane source (so it can never be aimed at a third
party), and bounded by bytes, average rate and expiry. Sends stop the
moment the budget runs out, so a buggy action cannot become a flood.

Two granted actions on top of it:
- downtrain: N packets at a given size/interval toward the client, with
  seq + send-timestamp in the payload — downstream loss/reorder/jitter,
  which an upstream-only train cannot measure.
- big_send: one datagram per requested size, echoing the intended size in
  the payload — downstream MTU / black-hole evidence the client cannot
  produce for itself (only the far end can emit a large packet toward it).

Tests cover the security properties: no grant without a verified
destination, client requests clamped to server limits, byte budget stops
sending exactly, expiry refuses, and the rate ceiling throttles a burst.
Capabilities gain downtrain + big-send.
