server: canary DNS — authoritative zone with frozen §6.1 reference records
Stdlib DNS responder (no external deps): parses single-question queries
with EDNS OPT (bufsize, DO, ECS), serves the spec's frozen reference
records (ttl-{5,60,3600,86400} A/AAAA/TXT, many-rr 8×A in order, big-txt
~1800B), and per-query <nonce>.<session>.<zone> answers in 192.0.2.0/24.
UDP truncation sets TC past 512 (or the EDNS bufsize); TCP never
truncates — the EDNS-bufsize / TCP-fallback test. Every query is logged
(qname, resolver, transport, EDNS, ECS, case) and surfaced per session
prefix in GET /v1/sessions/{id}/observations as dns_canary. Profile gains
canary_zone + the canary-dns capability when configured.

Wire format validated against an independent client (correct rcodes,
answer counts, TC behavior, full EDNS response); unit tests cover
references, truncation-vs-EDNS, logging, NXDOMAIN.

Versioning: patch-first convention recorded in CLAUDE.md.

# Echolot — context for Claude Code
This repo is the **capability prober** for the Echolot project: an F/OSS Android app for detecting
and debugging local network issues (target audience: network engineers). The prober validates the
no-root feasibility matrix on real hardware before the production app is built.
## Project facts
- **Name:** Echolot. Domain echo-lot.app. URI scheme `echolot://`. Namespace `app.echo_lot.*`
(hyphen→underscore; appIds/packages can't contain hyphens). Prober appId: `app.echo_lot.prober`.
- **Stack:** native Kotlin + Jetpack Compose. No Flutter (all value is in platform APIs;
Flutter would be a Dart skin over a full Kotlin app + F-Droid build friction).
- **Tiers:** `app` (no root), `shizuku` (ADB-shell privileges via wireless pairing, shipped in v1),
`root` (future module). Every result records which tier produced it.
- **License:** code is **GPL-3.0-or-later** (`LICENSE`), the specs in `docs/` are **CC-BY-4.0**
(`docs/LICENSE`). New source files get the two-line SPDX header the existing ones carry.
The server, when it lands, is GPL too — not AGPL (see `docs/build-status.md` for the reasoning).
## Design docs (source of truth, in `docs/`)
- `docs/feature-catalog-and-feasibility.md` — full feature list + no-root feasibility matrix.
- `docs/measurement-schema.md` — the archived/exportable measurement JSON format (observation vs
finding separation, two-clock rule, columnar trains, anonymization types).
- `docs/probe-protocol.md` — client↔server wire protocol (pinned-TLS control plane, binary UDP data
plane with anti-amplification HMAC, STUN, canary DNS reference records).
- `docs/build-status.md` — running log of decisions, what is delivered, and the next steps.
The three specs are draft-complete and user-reviewed; treat them as the contract. `build-status.md`
is the mutable one — update it as work lands.
Keep prober result IDs aligned with the measurement-schema test-type registry.
## Versioning
Prefer **patch** bumps (`server-v0.3.1`) for additive/incremental work; reserve **minor** bumps
for real milestones. Don't burn through minor versions. Tags are namespaced: `server-v*` for the
Go server, `v*` for the app. Pushing a `server-v*` tag runs CI → binaries + Gitea release +
registry image; the server on fmr can `--self-update` from those releases.
## Layout
Monorepo. The prober is one deliverable; the Go server and the production app land as siblings.
```
docs/ design docs (above) — apply repo-wide, not just to the prober
echolot-prober/ the capability prober (self-contained Gradle build)
app/src/main/java/app/echo_lot/prober/
MainActivity.kt Compose host, runs probes sequentially
probe/ Probe interface + all app-tier probes + OS ABI helper
shizuku/ AIDL UserService + ShizukuRunner (shell command exec)
export/Report.kt JSON report + share intent
ui/ProberScreen.kt result cards colored by verdict
```
## Conventions
- Every probe returns a `ProbeResult` — never throws to the caller (MainActivity wraps anyway).
- Uncertain OS API paths (getsockoptInt, recvmsg, nat64Prefix) are reached via reflection/runCatching
and reported, not assumed — the prober's purpose is to discover what exists.
- Hardcoded Linux sockopt ABI numbers live in `OsAbi.kt` with rationale; do not "fix" them to
OsConstants names that don't exist.
## Build
From `echolot-prober/`: `./gradlew :app:assembleDebug` (needs local Android SDK; set `sdk.dir` in
`echolot-prober/local.properties`). The Gradle build is rooted there, not at the repo root.
First build downloads AGP/Compose/Shizuku from Google Maven + Maven Central.
## Working with test devices (hard-won lessons)
- **Prefer USB for adb.** Wireless debugging dies constantly: probe runs churn the wifi the
debug link rides on, the Lenovo tablet's ZUI power management kills the listener anyway, and
the port rotates on every restart. Never drive a probe run over *wireless* adb.
- Collection loop over USB, fully driveable by Claude: install → `am start` → tap "Run all
probes" → poll `uiautomator dump` until the button label returns to "Run all probes" → tap
"Export JSON" → the report lands in `cache/reports/` and comes back via
`adb shell run-as app.echo_lot.prober cat …` (no need to drive the share sheet; dismiss it
with BACK). Archive under `echolot-prober/reports/`, record findings in `docs/build-status.md`.
- Bash-tool `adb shell` calls with absolute device paths get mangled by Git Bash path
conversion (`/data/…``C:/Program Files/Git/data/…`); use the PowerShell tool for those.
- Bump `versionCode` on every deployed prober change — it shows on screen and as `proberBuild`
in the report; that's how a report is matched to a build.
- Known devices: OnePlus 15 (CPH2747, A16) — Shizuku UserService works;
Lenovo TB330FU (A15, multi-user) — UserService never binds, the `newProcess` fallback carries
it. Full history in build-status.md.
- As of the AGP 9.2.0 / Gradle 9.6.0 / Kotlin 2.2.10 bump, JDK 17+ (including 25) works —
AGP 9 requires Gradle 9.1.0+ and Kotlin 2.2.10+ as its minimum KGP version. On machines with
Android Studio, its `jbr` directory works as `JAVA_HOME`.
## Likely next steps
1. Run on physical devices; collect JSON reports across Android versions/vendors.
2. ~~C-over-JNI errqueue shim~~ — not needed; `trace.errqueue_reachable` and `traceroute.udp4`
are SUPPORTED on both known devices via `Os.recvmsg` + `StructMsghdr` reflection.
3. Fold the confirmed capabilities + Shizuku dump-format samples back into the production
`core-probe` / `core-shizuku` modules.
