Plan updated with the alknet-tty findings: the drainer pattern (single ordered writer) makes outbound chunk-boundary parsing sound; TestStdinSink's try_send→Full→Pending is the inbound backpressure precedent; OQ-01(a) now cites the reference. Task graph (taskgraph-validated, 17 tasks, 6 generations, no cycles): - tasks/server/: core-types, auth, healthz-decoy, adapter - tasks/gateway/: dispatch, routes, publish - tasks/websocket/: byte-adapter (research POC), upgrade-session, overlay-ops - tasks/adapters/: from-openapi, from-jsonschema, to-openapi, from-wss, mcp - tasks/client/: http-host - tasks/infra/: integration-suite (phase 4) Critical path runs through server core → adapter → WS session → overlay tests → integration suite. High-risk tasks are the three WS tasks, de-risked by the ws-byte-adapter POC blocking upgrade-session.

Description
Targeted POC validating the WS↔byte-stream adapter contract (OQ-01)
before the production implementation: wrap axum's WebSocket as
AsyncRead + AsyncWrite such that alkcall's ChannelsAdapter demux
and mux run over it correctly.
Inbound: axum WS messages → shared bounded buffer → AsyncRead drains
(backpressure via the alknet-tty precedent: try_send → Full → Pending).
Outbound: AsyncWrite accumulates into a pending buffer; a task parses
outgoing 8-byte chunk headers (verified: header+payload are separate
writes; channel 0's write_frame is prefix+body separately) and emits
each complete chunk as one WS binary message; chunks over the WS
message cap (~1 MiB default) split across messages. Close: WS close →
transport EOF (REQ-CH-02); AsyncWrite::shutdown → zero-length
sentinel then Close frame (REQ-CH-01).
Acceptance Criteria
- POC: adapter + ChannelsAdapter + channel-0 Dispatcher over
tokio::io::DuplexStreampairs — call round-trip works - POC test: 16 MiB chunk splits across WS messages and reassembles
- POC test: interleaved channel writes preserve chunk integrity (no torn chunks)
- OQ-01 sub-items (a)-(d) resolved with concrete values, written back into open-questions.md
- Findings + go/pivot recommendation recorded in this task's Summary

Notes
Agent fills during implementation. This is a research task: the POC code lands under
.worktrees/research/or a#[cfg(test)]module — not as final production code — but the production adapter may grow directly from it if the shape holds.
Summary
Agent fills on completion.
