A review pass over the diff found seventeen confirmed defects. The worst was
the contract itself: every method's parameters were published as a single
descriptor named `params`, so a client generated from openrpc.json sent
{"params":{"params":{…}}} and every call failed -32602. Parameters are now
published per field, with a test asserting the published names are the keys
the daemon actually deserializes.
Security and lifecycle:
- download.start no longer lets a caller name a directory, which was an
arbitrary write on the daemon's host.
- The Unix socket is bound under a temporary name and renamed into place; it
was briefly connectable by any local user between bind and chmod, and on
that transport connecting is authenticating.
- Pre-auth reads are capped at 1 MiB with a 30s handshake timeout, and
connections are capped, so an unauthenticated peer cannot exhaust memory or
threads.
- A read error no longer returns past the hub unsubscribe, which leaked a
subscriber and two threads per occurrence.
- A client whose event queue fills is now actually disconnected. It used to be
dropped from the fan-out and left connected, working on but blind to every
event after — the documentation already promised otherwise.
- A client whose daemon vanishes mid-transfer is told at once instead of
waiting out its full timeout and reporting a misleading "gave up".
Contract accuracy: errors carry an explicit null id (a missing one reads as a
notification and gets dropped), a second auth answers with the published
shape, and nullable fields are sent rather than omitted so a generated client
sees one shape.
Also splits proto.rs and server.rs, whose concerns had diverged, and applies
the review's simplifications.
SOULSEEK_E2E_MODE=daemon makes the existing e2e harness serve every session
from a daemon instead of the command's own login, so the same 83 tests assert
the same records and exit codes both ways. CI runs the suite twice.
Two defects it found:
serve judged whether anything was shared from this run's configuration
rather than from the session, so routed to a daemon it would start with
nothing to serve and report success.
The TUI showed an empty conversation when attached, because the daemon's
message history was never asked for. It is now a SessionApi method, empty
locally, which puts the difference behind the seam.
main.rs is now a thin entry point over the library rather than a second copy
of every module, so the program compiles once instead of twice.
Commands and the TUI now hold an Arc<dyn SessionApi> instead of an
Arc<Client>. The trait is implemented on Client itself, so the local path
is the same client behind one vtable and no wrapper type exists to keep in
sync. Daemon mode plugs a remote implementation into the same handle.
