Split the last open substrate-placement question:
- Unix: ships with the local feature v1 (dial_unix — same halves
shape as TCP; the wire enum already carried unix per ADR-001;
the params task's schema list includes all three values)
- Stdio: OUT of scope — a spawned process's stdin/stdout/stderr IS
alktty's pipe mode (LocalTtyBackend + tokio::process + Stdio::piped,
alktty tty-local.md): three multiplexed logical streams + the
exit-code control chunk (alktty ADR-004) + signal forwarding
(REQ-TTY-02). A stdio bridge here would be alktty's runner mode
with the terminal stripped out — a strictly worse duplicate that
also drops the semantics that matter (a byte tunnel has neither
exit codes nor signals). Remote command execution composes via
alktty on the same channels substrate.
Updated: open-questions.md OQ-TN-14 (resolved), overview.md feature
gate + deps + OQ summary, producer.md OQ ref, OQ-TN-10 promotion
(#3 split), phase-0-findings + both POC summaries' resolution notes,
params task (schema enum includes unix), local-socket-halves task
(unix ships, stdio does NOT — with the composition rationale),
oq-tn-14-tracker task repurposed (boundary-maintenance: re-opens only
if a consumer needs stdio-without-process-semantics — which would
need its own ADR, or if the alktty/alktunnels boundary needs
sharpening).
Verified: taskgraph valid (12 tasks, no cycles)
alkcall 0.7.0 resolved every open downstream-consumer finding,
including this crate's reverse-flow POC W1 (filed as ledger CF-005,
with the CF-006 corollary):
- CF-005 (a): ServingConfig.identity — the explicit override
- CF-005 (b): transport Connection::identity() propagates to
channel 0 — set_identity before dialing is the mTLS/QUIC path
- CF-006: the establisher/pump handler receive the per-call opener
identity (dispatch-resolved), not the install-time context
- CF-007: ADR-016 code list completed (doc-only)
- F-1 (POC finding): the ChannelPlan type doc now carries the
Send + Sync payload constraint
alktunnels updates:
- Cargo.toml: alkcall 0.6.0 -> 0.7.0 (lockfile resolves 0.7.0)
- AGENTS.md convention 11: pin note updated; the 0.7.0 identity
surface marked load-bearing (precedence order + per-call opener)
- AGENTS.md architecture context: CF-005/CF-006 row added; the
'What the POC does NOT settle' list replaced with the accurate
settled state (Phase 0 complete; Phase 1 = the spec)
- reverse-poc-summary: W1 marked RESOLVED with the remediation
validated from the POC's topology (16 tests over 0.7.0: transport
identity alone authorizes, ServingConfig.identity overrides,
identity-less fails closed, CF-006 witness); F-1 marked documented
upstream; what-the-POC-does-not-validate and verification blocks
updated
- phase-0-findings OQ-TN-10: reverse POC entry notes the 0.7.0
re-validation and W1 resolution
The reverse POC (/workspace/alktunnels-reverse-poc, 8b35818) re-
validated: the default harness now authorizes on transport identity
alone — the 0.6.0-era auth_token workaround is dead code.
Verification: cargo test, clippy --all-targets -D warnings,
fmt --check, wasm32 check, doc --no-deps — all clean
POC at /workspace/alktunnels-reverse-poc (14 tests, clippy/fmt clean,
repeat-run stable) over alkcall 0.6.0:
- The review 007 non-finding trace confirmed by execution: the hub
(accept side) opens tunnel channels toward a connect-side worker
serving its own open op (from_connection_with_serving +
ChannelOperations::register_on + post-hoc openable registration)
- ADR-047 §5 exercised in the Pub-like orientation: the worker
(connect side) allocates odd IDs; the hub adopts
- R-01 plan flow under concurrency: two same-resource opens, distinct
channels, distinct dialed handles — the forward POC's handoff race
is structurally gone
- OQ-TN-03's last open thread closed: no advertisement op needed —
the listener is the initiator's own local resource; a far-side
listener is a producer-side listen establisher over the same open op
- W4 EOF sentinel propagation validated (half-close semantics);
W3 adopter self-reaping pinned as a TunnelSession spec requirement;
W2 post-hoc registration viable
Findings:
- F-1: ChannelPlan's Send+Sync bound constrains plan payloads
(socket halves carry + Sync; spec should pin the constraint)
- F-2: empty UDP datagrams collide with the EOF sentinel in raw
pass-through (pinned by an executable test) — the length-framed
codec is mandatory for UDP; raw pass-through stays
stream-substrate-only. Second validation of the codec decision;
OQ-TN-02 mandate strengthened
W1 (connect-side serving path resolves caller identity only via
payload auth_token) filed upstream as alkcall consumer-findings
ledger CF-005 (alkcall 0d287a9).
Verification: cargo test 14/14, clippy --all-targets -D warnings,
fmt --check — all clean, repeat-run stable
