    • vacp2p/mix#73 feat: create surbs and send response back
      • From the flow described in #41 implemented:
        • Sender-side flow (Entry)
        • Exit-side flow (Sending Reply)
        • Currently working on Sender-Side Flow (Receiving Reply)
      • Refactor the entry layer to make it easier to understand whether exit is destination or not
      • Added proc registerFwdBehavior*(mixProto: MixProtocol, codec: string, fwdBehavior: fwdBehaviorCb) which lets you customize the read behavior in the exit node, for cases in which exit is not destination.

vac:dst:

  • admin/misc
    • Created requested VM for ACZ
    • Created job description for DevOps
  • vac:dst:ift:2025q3-dst-tooling:python-uv
    • Was finished, only closing PR was missing
  • vac:dst:status:2025q3-status-go-chat-protocol-benchmarks:delay-and-store
    • Status-waku discovered an issue with bootstraping. Trying to get more info
  • vac:dst:vac:2025q3-libp2p-evaluation:regression-testing
    • Final adjustments to the lab, weird results came up again.
  • vac:dst:vac:2025q3-libp2p-evaluation:evaluate-quic-v0.2.9
    • Did new experiments with suggested PR
    • Connectivity and delays looks more stable, but cant give accurate results because metrics missbehaving.
  • vac:dst:vac:2025q3-libp2p-evaluation:mix-re-evaluation
    • Coordinated with Pearson for help
    • "Only" rerun and analysis is needed.
  • vac:dst:waku:2025q3-waku-evaluation:js-waku
  • vac:dst:ift:2025q3-dst-tooling:workdir-experiments-track
  • vac:dst:waku:2025q3-dst-tooling:improve-tooling
  • vac:dst:ift:2025q3-dst-tooling:shadow-integration-scaffold
    • Extract and log nim-libp2p prometheus metrics in shadow
    • Able to extract binaries from nimlibp2p docker image and run in shadow.
      • Running existing docker images still requires addressing at-least two issues.
        • nimp2p-service (discovery) not available in shadow. Supporting this can allow running existing docker images as well.
        • prometheus metrics are exposted to server in existing images. Still need to try curl/other options to use these metrics.
    • New shadow release failing many compatibility tests on my machine (probably an issue with hypervisor)

vac:sc:

  • vac:sc:ift:2025q3-fv-tools-research
    • trying Kontrol with our repos tests
    • trying the opensource version of certora in local

    • Review of staking system
      • Found bug in leave system: withdraw allows immediate release of funds after leave #247
      • Found bug in leave system: withdrawFromVault allows withdraw after lockEnd without StakeManager notification (no leave precondition) #248
    • Improve coverage of staking system
      • Added tests that find the bugs above
    • Implemented change in stakemanager to allow for setting rewards when reward period is already pending
    • Upgrade testnet deployment

  • ift:2025q3-de-mls-tesnet:consensus-layer
    • Added real voting into PoC and made consensus service as event-based PR
  • ift:2025q3-zerokit:merkle-tree-revising
    • Merged this PR (completed task)
    • Reviewed PR
  • ift:2025q3-libp2p-mix-testnet:update-rfc
    • Resumed Section 8 refactor in PR PR #173.
    • Began adding payload encryption and handler logic (WiP).

    • Encountered issues running Mixnet with nim-libp2p v2.2.4.
    • Debugged Sphinx reply processing: destination was incorrectly embedded in final hop.
    • Implemented SURB handling changes in feat/surbs-process branch.
    • Identified issue behind SURB test failing — identifier I must be non-zero.
  • ift:2025q3-zerokit:libp2p-mix-repo
    • Synced with P2P team on achieving uniform behavior in Mix core regardless of exit != destination or not.
    • Aligned that hop selection remains a challenge: in exit == destination, the last hop must be the destination, which introduces a special case.
    • Discussed options: either expose hop selection to top-level applications or allow Mix core to be aware of the destination — both are not desirable.
    • Explored possibility of defining a custom client-relay protocol for GossipSub (suggested by Richard) to avoid this.
