Summary
AI summaryAdded combined managed stream plus tunnel backend with supporting APIs and documentation.
Full changelog
wfb-link v0.1.0-alpha.4
This alpha adds the combined managed stream plus tunnel backend path requested
in issue #4.
Highlights
- Added
ManagedWfbTunnelConfig. - Added
ManagedWfbStreamsConfig::with_tunnel(...). ManagedWfbStreamsBackendcan now supervise named raw application streams
and one IP tunnel in the same radio runtime session.- The combined backend starts the extra tunnel
wfb_tx,wfb_rx, and
wfb-tun-macoshelper processes alongside the existing per-stream helpers. LinkReady.endpoints.tunnelis populated when a managed tunnel is present.- Managed-stream backend reports now include a
tunnelsection with the tunnel
radio ports, product UDP sockets, internal radio UDP sockets, tunnel profile,
summary file path, and parsedwfb-tun-macossummary when available. - Tunnel helper criticality follows the stream model: required tunnel helper
failures fail startup/readiness, while best-effort tunnel failures report the
__tunnelsentinel indegraded_streams. - The managed-streams example supports
ENABLE_TUNNEL=1for combined
stream+tunnel launches. - Updated README and product integration docs to describe the combined backend.

Known Limitations
- A receiver-backed combined managed-stream plus tunnel bench gate still needs
to be added and run against the Linux peer. - RF calibration is still not full Linux parity across all conditions. Runtime
IQK, LCK, and EFUSE TX-power profiles remain receiver-gated. - The Linux backend remains a contract/design stub; Linux products should use
native WFB-NG over monitor mode for now. - Android USB host transport is planned but not implemented.
- Helper binaries, firmware, service TOML, and key material remain product
release artifacts.
