Decompose the source-to-spec sync for the core and call crates into atomic, dependency-ordered tasks for implementation agents: Core (7 tasks + review): - peer-entry-model: PeerEntry struct, AuthPolicy.peers (ADR-030 keystone) - credential-store-trait: CredentialStore/InMemoryCredentialStore/StoreError (ADR-031/035) - identity-store-trait: IdentityStore async write trait (ADR-035) - config-identity-provider-peerentry: ConfigIdentityProvider PeerEntry resolution (ADR-030) - fingerprint-normalization: ed25519:hex for raw keys across quinn/iroh (ADR-030 §6) - three-remote-roles-docs: document ADR-034 roles and verifier selection - review-core-sync: phase gate before call consumes new identity semantics Call (9 tasks + review): - retire-remote-safe: remove ADR-028 machinery, AccessControl is the gate (ADR-029 §3) - operation-context-forwarded-for: forwarded_for field, wire-ingress only (ADR-032) - peer-composite-env: PeerCompositeEnv, PeerId=Identity.id, remove UUID (ADR-029/030) - operation-env-invoke-peer: invoke_peer/peer_contains/PeerRef (ADR-029 §2) - services-list-accesscontrol-filtered: AccessControl filter, list-peers opt-in (ADR-029 §6) - call-client-verifier-selection: TLS client-auth, verifier by PeerEntry (OQ-29, ADR-034) - from-call-forwarded-for: populate forwarded_for, peer-keyed registration (ADR-029 §5, ADR-032) - dispatch-peer-identity: AccessControl::check(peer_identity), PeerId from resolution (ADR-029 §3, ADR-030 §5) - review-call-sync: phase gate for the call sync Validated: 58 tasks, no cycles, logical topo order, two review checkpoints.
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 The previous implementation has been archived and a greenfield rebuild is in progress.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.
