Wires the axum Router (gateway endpoints + /healthz + /openapi.json + MCP + custom routes via extra_routes merge ADR-046) and drives hyper's HTTP/1.1 or HTTP/2 connection driver over a single QUIC bidirectional stream. The QUIC-to-hyper bridge wraps the (SendStream, RecvStream) pair as a TokioIo-compatible duplex and feeds it to hyper-util's auto Builder (which auto-detects HTTP/1.1 vs HTTP/2). h3 ALPN is not registered (ADR-044). Route handlers, healthz/decoy logic, openapi.json, the MCP route, and the WS upgrade handler are wired as 501 Not Implemented placeholders for their respective tasks. The router state holds Arc<OperationRegistry> + Arc<dyn IdentityProvider>; the router is built once at construction and cloned per connection (cheap Arc clone). DecoyConfig defaults to NotFound. Adds hyper-util dependency (server, service, tokio features).
Alknet
Status: Pre-alpha — This project is undergoing a major architectural pivot to an ALPN-as-service model. The previous implementation has been archived and a greenfield rebuild is in progress.
A self-hostable networking toolkit built on QUIC+TLS with ALPN-based protocol dispatch. Each protocol handler (SSH, SFTP, Git, HTTP, DNS, messaging, call protocol) registers an ALPN string on a shared endpoint. The ALPN negotiation during the TLS/QUIC handshake routes connections to the correct handler before any application bytes are read.
Core Insight
A service IS an ALPN. One endpoint, one port, many protocols — dispatched by the TLS handshake, not by application-level peeking or separate listeners.
