mrambossekandClaude Opus 5 a49bef5821 server: refuse unsigned releases and polluted reserved addresses
Self-update now verifies SHA256SUMS.sig (ed25519, relsign package) against
a public key baked into the binary; the private key exists only in the CI
secret store, so a compromised release host can withhold updates but not
inject one. CI signs on every server-v* tag and hard-fails without the
secret. Operators with their own pipeline override the key via
ECHOLOT_SELF_UPDATE_PUBKEY (mint a pair with release-sign -gen).

Startup also now proves 80/443 are actually free on the reserved
measurement addresses by asking the OS (throwaway bind), not the config -
CheckReserved could never see a stray process, and the adb-beacon receiver
on 0.0.0.0:443 was exactly that.

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 Opus 5 d5e15816b5 server: fix egress-MTU probe — connect the socket before reading IP_MTU
server-release / image (push) Successful in 15s
server-test / test (push) Successful in 27s
server-release / release (push) Successful in 27s
IP_MTU getsockopt returns ENOTCONN on an unconnected socket; the v0.3.4
probe set IP_MTU_DISCOVER and Sendto but never Connect'd, so every probe
errored. UDP-connect (no handshake) pins the route so IP_MTU reflects the
path; switched to Write (two return values). Sysctl audit already flagged
the four real fmr issues in v0.3.4; this makes the MTU proof report.

mrambossekandClaude Opus 5 4ae744aae5 server: self-test — sysctl audit + egress-MTU self-proof ("server proven good")
server-release / image (push) Successful in 15s
server-test / test (push) Successful in 27s
server-release / release (push) Successful in 28s
A measurement server must prove its own host isn't distorting results:
- sysctl audit (/proc/sys): flags accept_ra on a static host, ICMP
  redirects, ICMP rate-limiting of the server's own errors, and disabled
  TCP options — each a measurement-fidelity hazard, with the "why".
- egress-MTU self-proof: DF PMTUD probe (IP_MTU_DISCOVER + getsockopt
  IP_MTU, no root — Linux-only, stub elsewhere) to external anchors. If the
  server's own uplink is below 1500, client MTU tests measure THIS server,
  so we say so.
Exposed at GET /admin/selftest (full report) and as server_selftest
{mtu_ok, sysctl_ok} in the profile so clients can trust or skip MTU tests.
Recommended deploy/99-echolot-sysctl.conf + README section.
