- fix(cli): stop printing the startup banner ("ostp-cli vX.Y.Z | OS: ...")
to stderr on every single command invocation. init_tracing() ran
unconditionally before command dispatch, so `ostp -V`, `ostp gk`, etc. all
showed it. It's still written to the log file (useful there), just no
longer echoed via the stderr tracing layer for one-shot commands.
- feat(client): add ostp-client::migrate, the ONE place config migration
runs. Previously there were three uncoordinated migration paths: a Python
snippet embedded in scripts/install.sh (only touched server api.* fields,
ran on every update), the old 0.3.x line's auto-migration on every hot
reload (silent besides a log warning), and nothing at all for the current
rebuild. Consolidated into one module covering every config shape that's
actually existed:
- v0.3.1-v0.3.21 modular (inbounds/outbounds/routing) -> current flat
schema, including correctly resolving routing.default_outbound through
a urltest/selector group to the real server, and reporting (not
silently dropping) every additional server a multi-server config had.
- pre-0.3.1 flat configs carrying now-dead fields (tun.wintun_path,
tun.ipv4_address, transport.wss) -> dropped with an explicit reason,
everything else passes through untouched.
- server configs -> backfills api.* defaults and drops legacy api.token
(ported straight from the install.sh Python, same behavior, correct
place).
6 unit tests cover all of the above against realistic fixtures. Wired up
as `ostp migrate` (was missing from Commands entirely) — no other code
path calls into this module, so a config's shape only ever changes when
explicitly asked.
- feat(cli): `ostp import <url>` now asks the same TUN/mux/debug questions
`ostp connect <url>` always did. Previously import just wrote flat
defaults to disk with no way to turn any of that on short of hand-editing
the resulting config.json afterward. Extracted the shared prompt into
prompt_client_options() so both paths stay in sync.
- chore(install): remove the embedded Python config-migration snippet from
install.sh; schema migration must never happen implicitly during an
install/update. Points users at `ostp migrate` instead.
Stable releases were already "vX.Y.Z" (from the actual git tag pushed for
that channel), but nightly/beta tags were bare "X.Y.Z-nightly"/"X.Y.Z-beta"
— inconsistent with the v-prefixed convention used everywhere else. Every
channel's tag now starts with v: "vX.Y.Z-nightly", "vX.Y.Z-beta", "vX.Y.Z".
run-name showed "release version nightly" / "release version pre-release"
for every branch-push run — read exactly like the release TAG was bare
"nightly"/"pre-release" (the bug fixed earlier), when the actual GH Release
tag has been correctly versioned (e.g. "0.4.3-nightly") all along via
resolve-channel. run-name can't reference job outputs (it's evaluated before
any job runs), so it can't show the real computed tag directly — spell out
"channel" instead so the label can't be mistaken for the release tag again.
Replaces ad-hoc manual tag pushes (which is how the confusing v0.4.1-beta /
v0.4.2-beta / bare "nightly" / "pre-release" release mess happened) with one
script that always goes through the same path: bump every version manifest,
commit, and push in the way release.yml's resolve-channel job actually
expects (branch push for nightly/pre-release, a real "vX.Y.Z" tag for
master — never a hand-pushed "vX.Y.Z-beta"-style tag).
Remembers the last {version, branch, prefix} used in .release-state.json, so
a bare run repeats last time's channel with the patch version bumped, and
-Switch starts a new version line (e.g. 0.3.x -> 0.4.0) without disturbing
which channel is currently being released to.
- New "Commit Message Conventions" section (type(scope): summary + a body
only when the why isn't obvious from the diff) — formalizes the style
already used across this rebuild's history.
- New "Branch Strategy" section documenting the nightly -> pre-release ->
master promotion model (pre-release/master are fast-forward-only,
never committed to directly).
- Fixed PR/branch-creation instructions that still said "target master" /
"branch from master" — contributor work targets nightly now.
- Clarified the ostp-control build step is optional for day-to-day
core/client/server work (the server embeds a dummy dist/ otherwise).
run_client_core previously ran once: if the OSTP protocol connection, the
TUN device, or the local proxy listener ended for any reason (network
change stranding the socket/adapter on a dead interface, a transient
crash, a drop the inner Bridge-level "TunnelStopped" retry couldn't
recover from), the whole client returned/errored and just stayed down.
Wrapped the existing body (now run_client_once) in an outer supervising
loop: any non-shutdown-requested exit triggers a full clean restart —
fresh DNS resolution, fresh Bridge, fresh TUN/proxy — with backoff
(1/2/5/10/20/30s, resetting once a run has been stable for 60s). Only an
explicit shutdown request stops the loop. connection_state reports
"connecting" during the retry wait so the UI shows reconnecting, not
disconnected.
- README.md/README.ru.md: License section still said "Business Source
License 1.1 ... converts to MIT in 2030" while the badge right above it,
Cargo.toml, and LICENSE itself all say AGPL-3.0 — a direct contradiction.
Now both say AGPL-3.0 and link to LICENSE.
- README.md/README.ru.md: CLI Reference / Quick Start described the old
flag-based interface (--init, --check, --generate-key, --links, bare
positional URL) that no longer exists after the subcommand refactor.
Rewrote both to the current `ostp <command>` surface (run/connect/setup/
init/check/gk/links/import/update/migrate/prober/proxy-env/uninstall),
including gk's alias and update's --branch/--version. RU previously had
no command reference at all; added one to match EN.
- docs/{en,ru}/obfuscation.md: removed the XTLS-Reality section (feature
removed in §A) and replaced it with an accurate description of junk
packets + TCP fragmentation, the actual current supplementary stealth
mechanism, including the per-key junk marker (no global DPI signature).
Also corrected the key-derivation and masking-algorithm descriptions,
which described a much older scheme (SHA-256(access_key)[0..8] + static/
nonce-based XOR) than what derive_all_secrets()/derive_payload_mask()
actually implement now (HKDF with version-gated, domain-separated
outputs; HMAC-SHA256 mask keyed on the packet's own ciphertext). The RU
version was additionally rewritten out of an oddly formal "industrial
telemetry" register into plain technical Russian.
- .ostp_public_ip: a server RUNTIME cache file (its own detected public IP),
never meant to be tracked — got committed by accident from a dev run in
the repo root. Removed and gitignored so it can't happen again.
- test.json (2 bytes), test_addr.rs (95 bytes): leftover scratch files with
no references anywhere in code, CI, or docs.
- refactor.py: a one-off AST-surgery script hardcoding an absolute path to
a specific dev machine (d:/ospab-projects/ostp/...); its job (splitting
up bridge.rs::run()) is long done, and it isn't invoked by anything.
- server.json: duplicate/stale example config at repo root — the real
canonical example already lives at docs/relay-config-example.json, and
this one still had a "reality" section for the TLS-mimicry feature we
removed in §A.
- ostp-wiki/: duplicate in-repo copy of wiki content. The old 0.3.x
lineage already deleted this once ("remove useless ostp-wiki folder from
root") before this rebuild branched off an earlier point that predates
that cleanup — removing it here brings v0.4.x back in line with that
decision.
- GUI launch_as_admin now matches the CLI's UAC diagnosis: detects
ERROR_CANCELLED (1223, user declined the prompt) instead of silently
treating it as success, and reports GetLastError()+exe path for any other
ShellExecuteW failure, replacing the old single opaque "denied or missing"
message that made GUI/TUI failures impossible to tell apart.
- generate-key subcommand renamed to `gk` (kept `generate-key` as an alias).
- Fixed a real short-flag collision: GenerateKey's --count used short='c',
which collides with the global --config short (propagated into every
subcommand); clap validates the whole command tree on first parse(), so
this could break parsing for the entire CLI, not just generate-key/gk.
--count is now short='n'.
- ostp-flutter/pubspec.yaml version was stuck at 0.2.97+12; bumped to 0.4.1+13.
- release.yml: added a resolve-channel job that computes one release tag per
run instead of repeating the logic in five upload steps. Rolling channel
pushes now carry the actual Cargo.toml version instead of a bare channel
name: `{version}-nightly` for the nightly branch, `{version}-beta` for
pre-release. workflow_dispatch gained a `channel` input restricted to
nightly/beta only — a manual run can never accidentally publish a "stable"
release; that still requires an explicit vX.Y.Z tag push.
Brings the useful work from the old master/pre-release lineage (5c2b5a0)
onto the clean rebuild, since that lineage never had the multi-server/WSS/
Reality removal or any of the 0.4.0 stability work. This is a manual port,
not a cherry-pick — this file's Args/ClientConfig shape had already
diverged too much for the patch to apply mechanically.
- ostp/src/main.rs: flat Args -> clap subcommands (setup, init, generate-key,
links, check, connect, uninstall, update, import, proxy-env,
proxy-env-clear), bridged onto the existing ~500 lines of flag-driven
dispatch via a LegacyArgs struct so none of that logic had to change.
- Fixed a real bug found while porting: GenerateKey's `count` used
short='c', colliding with the global `--config` short (also 'c'), which
clap validates across the whole command tree on first parse() -- a
duplicate short flag there could break every subcommand's parsing, not
just generate-key's.
- `update` now takes `-b/--branch` and `-v/--version` explicitly (was a
bare flag with no way to target a channel or exact version).
- Added the UAC elevation step for TUN mode that this lineage's CLI was
completely missing (`run_client_directly` went straight to creating the
TUN adapter unelevated). Also fixed the elevation check itself: it only
tested `ret <= 32`, but ShellExecuteW returns ERROR_CANCELLED (1223) when
the user clicks "No" on the UAC prompt -- > 32, so a denied prompt was
read as success and the process exited silently without starting the
tunnel. Now ret==1223 is reported explicitly, and a genuine failure logs
GetLastError() so the real Win32 cause is visible next time.
- scripts/install.sh: added -b/--branch alongside the existing -v/--version,
and channel-aware release resolution (nightly/pre-release use their own
rolling tag; stable resolves via the GitHub API's "latest").
- release.yml: added nightly/pre-release branch-push triggers for rolling
prereleases. Fixed the tag_name logic from 5c2b5a0, which mapped
`master` pushes to a release tagged "nightly" -- backwards from master
being the most stable channel. github.ref_name already equals the
branch or tag name that triggered the run, so no per-branch remapping is
needed at all; master is intentionally left off the branch-push list --
it only ever gets real version tags.
Verified: `cargo build -p ostp` succeeds, and `ostp update --help` /
`ostp generate-key --help` / `ostp --help` show the expected flags with no
clap panic.

security / protocol:
- Derive a PER-KEY junk marker (obfuscation.rs, info byte 0x04) instead of the
global constant [0x88,0x1A,0x93,0x5D]. A fixed marker was a universal DPI
signature identifying ALL OSTP users at once — exactly what the HKDF version
gate avoids for the handshake. Server drops junk via a new DispatchOutcome::Junk
inside the existing key-trial loop (secrets already derived → zero extra cost);
client stamps its own key's marker.
- §E: configurable junk/fragmentation params (junk_pc / junk_ps / frag_chunk / frag_sleep).
GUI (desktop):
- Light theme + toggle, GUI version footer in Settings.
- Fix mouse-wheel scroll on Settings (flex child needed min-height: 0).
- Drop the false "process exclusions unsupported in TUN mode" warning — they DO
work (native_handler maps port->process via GetExtendedTcpTable).
release / infra:
- build.ps1: add -PreRelease (tag CURRENT version as v<ver>-beta.N, no bump, no
master commit); guard the panel build when ostp-control ships no source; bump
the real ostp-gui/package.json instead of the nonexistent ostp-control one.
- release.yml: mark hyphenated tags as GitHub pre-releases; don't hard-fail the
web-panel step when there is no source (use committed dist/).
- Versions aligned to 0.4.1; README license badge BSL 1.1 -> AGPL v3.

In the Closing state the old code force-transitioned to Closed after a
SINGLE inbound packet, so any data/ACKs the peer still had in flight when we
initiated Close were dropped (Closed returns Noop for everything). Stay in
Closing and process inbound normally; handle_inbound already owns the
Close->Closed transition when it actually receives the peer's Close frame.
Also handle Tick in Closing so our own Close frame is retransmitted until
acknowledged.
Ported surgically from 47d44fa — only the Closing-state correctness fix, NOT
that commit's bundled RFC-6298 RTO / congestion rewrite (a behavioural change
to the working base) or the sent_history BTreeMap perf swap (broad hot-path
change for a perf-only gain). cargo test -p ostp-core: 36/36 incl.
test_close_sequence.

Previously start_tunnel returned early if a tunnel was already running, so
changing the server while connected silently kept the OLD connection. Per
the plan ("server change = full stop+start, not hot-reload"), tear down any
existing InProcess/Helper tunnel before starting a fresh one. For the
elevated helper, wait ~1.2s after sending stop so it releases the ostp_tun
adapter before a new helper recreates it (avoids name clashes). start_tunnel
is only invoked on an explicit connect, so restarting here is safe.

The plan's share feature for the (single-config) desktop GUI. The QR is
rendered locally so the access key never leaves the device.
- src-tauri: add `qrcode = "0.14"` (features=["svg"]) + `generate_qr`
command (string -> SVG), registered in the invoke handler. Ported from
the current ostp-gui. (cargo check on src-tauri passes.)
- Frontend: "Share" button next to Import builds `ostp://KEY@HOST?sni&type`
from the current config fields, calls generate_qr, and shows a modal with
the QR + a read-only link + Copy. Added i18n keys (en/ru) so the new
data-i18n labels resolve (missing keys would render as the raw key).
Note: Rust side verified via cargo check; the frontend is syntax-checked
(node --check) but not runtime-verified — needs a Tauri build to confirm
visually.

Brand identity per the plan (dark theme + eagle). Ported faithfully from the
current ostp-gui:
- assets/logo.svg + logo.png (the eagle vector/raster).
- .watermark layer: centered, 80%/max-600px, opacity 0.05, behind the
screens (z-index 0, pointer-events none), with a light-theme invert.
- Watermark div added after the ambient blobs in index.html.
Dark theme already existed in styles.css; this adds the eagle the plan calls
for. Backend-independent (pure HTML/CSS/asset).

Anti-DPI obfuscation the project wants to keep, ported from 0.3.x with the
harmful UDP behaviour designed out from the start.
- Junk: before the handshake on a UoT/TCP connection, send 2-5 random
length-prefixed frames (100-1000 B). The server reads each as a frame,
fails to authenticate it, drops it and keeps reading (drop-and-continue),
so junk perturbs DPI flow analysis without breaking the connection. Junk
is NEVER sent over UDP — there each junk would be a lone datagram
indistinguishable from a port scan (probe-flood / wasted CPU / the very
"self-ban" risk the plan calls out). Verified the server has no
probe-based ban, and the unauthorized-probe log is already rate-limited
(§B), so junk-over-UoT produces one debug line, not a flood.
- TCP fragmentation: new `transport.tcp_fragmentation` flag (default off).
When set, the writer splits the first real frame (the handshake) — length
header byte-by-byte then payload in 2-byte chunks with short gaps — so DPI
can't classify the handshake from a single read.
- Ranges are hardcoded for now; §E fine-tuning (configurable Jc/Jmin/Jmax,
S1/S2, H1..H4) is deferred.
Verified by loopback E2E: a UoT client with tcp_fragmentation=true connects
(junk logged as one rate-limited probe, then real handshake accepted) and
curl via SOCKS5 tunnels HTTPS successfully.

The base already derives all secrets from the access key, so derived
secrets were never the gap — the gap was that nothing distinguished a
current handshake from an older-format one, so an old client could still
connect to a new server.
Rather than the plan's literal "plaintext version byte before the crypto
layer" (which would add a constant, DPI-visible marker and defeat the
project's stealth north-star), fold the version INTO the HKDF derivation:
- Add PROTOCOL_VERSION (= 4 for 0.4.0), mixed into the IKM of
derive_all_secrets so a different version yields a completely different
obfuscation key / psk / padding. No marker ever appears on the wire —
the output stays indistinguishable from random.
- A pre-0.4.0 peer derives a different obfuscation key, so the 0.4.0
server cannot recover its handshake header and drops it as an
unauthorized probe. Bump PROTOCOL_VERSION on any future wire break.
Verified:
- cargo test -p ostp-core: 36/36 incl. new test_protocol_version_gates_
old_clients (old-version obf key does NOT recover the session_id).
- Loopback E2E: new client <-> new server connects and tunnels HTTPS
(curl via SOCKS5 returns egress IP).
- Old v0.2.98 client vs new server: handshake times out / aborts, server
accepts 0 clients — exactly the plan's §C criterion.

Ported only the fixes that actually apply to the pre-refactor base
(the handshake fixes 6eb7b36/d65af35 fix bugs the 0.3.1 multi-server
refactor introduced into the new outbounds/ostp.rs; the base bridge.rs
already waits for the handshake response with retransmit + NAT64
fallback, so they are intentionally skipped).
- EMFILE (922cf0b): rlimit::increase_nofile_limit at CLI startup.
- Logs (1151726): UoT connect/disconnect → debug; rate-limit the
unauthorized-probe log to one line / ~30s so a junk/probe flood can't
spam the log (and a client running junk-over-UDP can't self-ban).
- Helper lifecycle + bypass routes (b6e78c1):
* ostp-tun-helper forces std::process::exit(0) after run_server so the
WinTun adapter and its metric-0 default route are reclaimed instead
of lingering as a zombie that breaks the next connect.
* windows_route: delete_routes_for_dest() purges stale /32s, dedupe
bypass IPs, and log add failures at warn!.
* windows: retry tun::create through the transient ERROR_INVALID_
PARAMETER window and widen the adapter-index lookup to ~15s.

The "system" TUN stack that shelled out to a bundled tun2socks binary is
long-dead — Flutter already hardcodes the native OSTP stack — and only
bloats the build.
- ostp-jni: drop the tun2socks spawn branch and the tun_child handle;
the native TUN (run_native_tunnel_from_fd) is now unconditional. The
JNI signature is kept ABI-stable (t2sBinPath/localProxy retained but
ignored) to avoid breaking the Kotlin linkage without an Android build.
- Delete the committed 10 MB tun2socks-arm64 asset; drop the tun2socks
download steps from the Android build scripts.
- Remove the dead tun2socks.exe entry from the desktop build_dist.js
(it required a file nothing downloads, breaking the GUI dist build).
- Reword stale tun2socks references in proxy.rs, the GUI config comment,
install.ps1, the release workflow matrix, and CONTRIBUTING.

Clean-rebuild on the stably-working v0.2.98 base. The project's stealth
path is zapret-like (packet obfuscation / junk / fragmentation), NOT
TLS-mimicry, so WSS and Reality are dropped entirely.
- Delete dead orphan files: ostp-client/src/transport/xhttp.rs and
ostp-core/src/crypto/reality.rs (never declared as modules → not even
compiled), plus ostp-core/src/framing/wss.rs.
- Scrub the `wss` transport field from client config/bridge, the unified
CLI (ostp/src/main.rs), the Tauri GUI backend, the GUI frontend
(index.html/main.js), and the Flutter UI; also drop the Reality
pbk/sid plumbing and XTLS auto-search modes from both frontends.
- Drop now-unused client deps (x25519-dalek, chacha20poly1305, hex).
- Bump workspace to version 0.4.0 and license AGPL-3.0; make ostp's
ostp-core dep path-only so the version bump resolves.
- gitignore ostp-control/ (panel assets built separately; a dummy dist
is created for the rust-embed build).
