glm-5.3-flash 0f16c4f2f9 chore: release alkhttp 0.8.1
- version bump 0.8.0 -> 0.8.1 (patch per the dep-wave convention:
  0.4.1 rode alkcall 0.7.1; alkcall 0.10.1 is a patch release with no
  API or wire-format change, see the preceding consume commit)
- changelog: cut [0.8.1] with the alkcall 0.10.1 consumption (the
  adopt-window ordering fix; no surface reached through the HTTP API)
- README dependency snippet 0.7.0 -> 0.8.1 (was left stale by the
  0.8.0 release)

Verification: cargo test (467), clippy --all-targets -D warnings,
fmt --check, cargo publish --dry-run clean

alkhttp fuzzing

cargo-fuzz targets for the HTTP surface's hand-rolled parse paths. The design and operating rules live in docs/plans/fuzzing.md (adopted from alkcall's docs/research/fuzzing.md); this README is the operational cheat-sheet.

Layout

  • fuzz_targets/ — nightly-only fuzz_target! binaries (thin wrappers).
  • shared/ — stable-toolchain library holding the invariant logic; the corpus replay tests run here on plain cargo test.
  • corpus/<target>/ — committed seeds (regenerate with python3 fuzz/gen_fuzz_seeds.py).
  • artifacts/ — gitignored crash/oom/timeout artifacts + campaign logs.

Targets

Target Drives
sse_parser SseParser::feed + the FWD-17 envelope mapping (src/adapters/forward.rs) — the SSE frame parser every subscription forwards through
ws_chunk_framing WriteChunkWalk (the write pump's chunk walk) (src/websocket/byte_adapter.rs)
spec_import OpenAPISpec::from_str/from_yaml/from_json, the YAML normalization boundary, CompiledInputSchema compile/harden/validate, FromMCP::build_spec (src/adapters/openapi_spec.rs, input_validation.rs, from_mcp/mod.rs)
ws_session_opseq stateful op sequences over the WS byte adapter's generic pumps (run_read_pump/run_write_pump over the mock socket flavor) — interleavings, close timing, loud-gate mapping, backpressure
retry_throttle the inlined RetryAfterMiddleware's throttle map: capacity bound, eviction policy, ceiling clamp, refresh contraction, Retry-After parse partition

Running a campaign — always detached

Agent sessions must never run fuzzing in the foreground (an OOM in a target can take down the session host; see docs/plans/fuzzing.md §2). Use the detached runner:

fuzz/run-detached.sh sse_parser
# poll:
tail -n 50 fuzz/artifacts/sse_parser-*.log
ls fuzz/artifacts/sse_parser/
pgrep -f "cargo fuzz run sse_parser"

FUZZ_RUNTIME_SECS=1800 fuzz/run-detached.sh sse_parser for a longer campaign. The runner pins -fork=1 -rss_limit_mb=2048 -malloc_limit_mb=2048 -timeout=25 and detaches via setsid + nohup.

Corpus replay (the standing fuzz gate)

cargo test --manifest-path fuzz/shared/Cargo.toml

Replays every committed seed through the same invariant functions the fuzzer runs, on stable, no nightly needed. Part of the release verification checklist (AGENTS.md).

Toolchain notes

rust-toolchain.toml pins nightly for this subtree only (llvm-tools required by cargo-fuzz); the crate itself stays on stable at MSRV 1.88. cargo fuzz build must be run with the fuzz dir as CWD or trust the toolchain file (rustup resolves per directory).

Run campaigns before releases and after touching src/adapters/forward.rs (the SSE parser), src/websocket/byte_adapter.rs (the WS chunk walk), or the import adapters (src/adapters/openapi_spec.rs, input_validation.rs, from_mcp/).
