glm-5.2 e98cfa77d8 Implement core/config: StaticConfig, DynamicConfig, AuthPolicy, ApiKeyEntry, RateLimitConfig, ConfigReloadHandle, TlsIdentity, ConfigError
- StaticConfig: immutable startup config (listen_addr, tls_identity, iroh_relay, drain_timeout=2s)
- TlsIdentity enum: X509, RawKey (iroh feature-gated), SelfSigned
- DynamicConfig: hot-reloadable via ArcSwap (auth + rate_limits), derives Clone/Debug/Default
- AuthPolicy: authorized_fingerprints (HashSet<String>), api_keys (Vec<ApiKeyEntry>) — no russh dep
- ApiKeyEntry: prefix/hash/scopes/description/expires_at
- RateLimitConfig: max_connections_per_ip=100, max_auth_attempts=5
- ConfigReloadHandle: reload() atomic swap, dynamic() load_full
- ConfigError: thiserror enum with all variants

14 unit tests covering defaults, construction, atomic reload swap, and error displays.

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 The previous implementation has been archived and a greenfield rebuild is in progress.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.
