-# SmartProxy Unified Forwarding Configuration Plan
+# SmartProxy Complete Route-Based Implementation Plan
 
 ## Project Goal
-Create a clean, use-case driven forwarding configuration interface for SmartProxy that elegantly handles all forwarding scenarios: SNI-based forwarding, termination-based forwarding (NetworkProxy), HTTP forwarding, and ACME challenge forwarding.
+Complete the refactoring of SmartProxy to a pure route-based configuration approach by:
+1. Removing all remaining domain-based configuration code with no backward compatibility
+2. Updating internal components to work directly and exclusively with route configurations
+3. Eliminating all conversion functions and domain-based interfaces
+4. Cleaning up deprecated methods and interfaces completely
+5. Focusing entirely on route-based helper functions for the best developer experience
 
-## Current State
-Currently, SmartProxy has several different forwarding mechanisms configured separately:
-1. **HTTPS/SNI forwarding** via `IDomainConfig` properties
-2. **NetworkProxy forwarding** via `useNetworkProxy` in domain configs
-3. **HTTP forwarding** via Port80Handler's `forward` configuration
-4. **ACME challenge forwarding** via `acmeForward` configuration
+## Current Status
+The major refactoring to route-based configuration has been successfully completed:
+- SmartProxy now works exclusively with route-based configurations in its public API
+- All test files have been updated to use route-based configurations
+- Documentation has been updated to explain the route-based approach
+- Helper functions have been implemented for creating route configurations
+- All features are working correctly with the new approach
 
-This separation creates configuration complexity and reduced cohesion between related settings.
+### Completed Phases:
+1. ✅ **Phase 1:** CertProvisioner has been fully refactored to work natively with routes
+2. ✅ **Phase 2:** NetworkProxyBridge now works directly with route configurations
+3. ✅ **Phase 3:** Legacy domain configuration code has been removed
+4. ✅ **Phase 4:** Route helpers and configuration experience have been enhanced
+5. ✅ **Phase 5:** Tests and validation have been completed
 
-## Proposed Solution: Clean Use-Case Driven Forwarding Interface
+### Project Status:
+✅ COMPLETED (May 10, 2025): SmartProxy has been fully refactored to a pure route-based configuration approach with no backward compatibility for domain-based configurations.

-### Phase 3: Implement Forwarding Handler System
+## Clean Break Approach
 
-- [ ] Create an implementation strategy focused on the new forwarding types:
+To keep our codebase as clean as possible, we are taking a clean break approach with NO migration or compatibility support for domain-based configuration. We will:
 
-```typescript
-/**
- * Base class for all forwarding handlers
- */
-abstract class ForwardingHandler {
-  constructor(protected config: IForwardConfig) {}
-  
-  abstract handleConnection(socket: Socket): void;
-  abstract handleHttpRequest(req: IncomingMessage, res: ServerResponse): void;
-}
+1. Completely remove all domain-based code
+2. Not provide any migration utilities in the codebase
+3. Focus solely on the route-based approach
+4. Document the route-based API as the only supported method
 
-/**
- * Factory for creating the appropriate handler based on forwarding type
- */
-class ForwardingHandlerFactory {
-  public static createHandler(config: IForwardConfig): ForwardingHandler {
-    switch (config.type) {
-      case 'http-only':
-        return new HttpForwardingHandler(config);
-        
-      case 'https-passthrough':
-        return new HttpsPassthroughHandler(config);
-        
-      case 'https-terminate-to-http':
-        return new HttpsTerminateToHttpHandler(config);
-        
-      case 'https-terminate-to-https':
-        return new HttpsTerminateToHttpsHandler(config);
-        
-      default:
-        throw new Error(`Unknown forwarding type: ${config.type}`);
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
+This approach prioritizes codebase clarity over backward compatibility, which is appropriate since we've already made a clean break in the public API with v14.0.0.

-### Core Forwarding Types
-
-```typescript
-/**
- * The primary forwarding types supported by SmartProxy
- */
-export type ForwardingType = 
-  | 'http-only'                // HTTP forwarding only (no HTTPS)
-  | 'https-passthrough'        // Pass-through TLS traffic (SNI forwarding)
-  | 'https-terminate-to-http'  // Terminate TLS and forward to HTTP backend
-  | 'https-terminate-to-https'; // Terminate TLS and forward to HTTPS backend
-```
-
-### Type-Specific Behavior
-
-Each forwarding type has specific default behavior:
-
-#### HTTP-Only
-- Handles only HTTP traffic
-- No TLS/HTTPS support
-- No certificate management
-
-#### HTTPS Passthrough
-- Forwards raw TLS traffic to backend (no termination)
-- Passes SNI information through
-- No HTTP support (TLS only)
-- No certificate management
-
-#### HTTPS Terminate to HTTP
-- Terminates TLS at SmartProxy
-- Connects to backend using HTTP (non-TLS)
-- Manages certificates automatically (ACME)
-- Supports HTTP requests with option to redirect to HTTPS
-
-#### HTTPS Terminate to HTTPS
-- Terminates client TLS at SmartProxy
-- Creates new TLS connection to backend
-- Manages certificates automatically (ACME)
-- Supports HTTP requests with option to redirect to HTTPS
-
-## Handler Implementation Strategy
-
-```typescript
-/**
- * Handler for HTTP-only forwarding
- */
-class HttpForwardingHandler extends ForwardingHandler {
-  public handleConnection(socket: Socket): void {
-    // Process HTTP connection
-    // For HTTP-only, we'll mostly defer to handleHttpRequest
-  }
-  
-  public handleHttpRequest(req: IncomingMessage, res: ServerResponse): void {
-    // Forward HTTP request to target
-    const target = this.getTargetFromConfig();
-    this.proxyRequest(req, res, target);
-  }
-}
-
-/**
- * Handler for HTTPS passthrough (SNI forwarding)
- */
-class HttpsPassthroughHandler extends ForwardingHandler {
-  public handleConnection(socket: Socket): void {
-    // Extract SNI from TLS ClientHello if needed
-    // Forward raw TLS traffic to target without termination
-    const target = this.getTargetFromConfig();
-    this.forwardTlsConnection(socket, target);
-  }
-  
-  public handleHttpRequest(req: IncomingMessage, res: ServerResponse): void {
-    // HTTP not supported in SNI passthrough mode
-    res.statusCode = 404;
-    res.end('HTTP not supported for this domain');
-  }
-}
-
-/**
- * Handler for HTTPS termination with HTTP backend
- */
-class HttpsTerminateToHttpHandler extends ForwardingHandler {
-  private tlsContext: SecureContext;
-  
-  public async initialize(): Promise<void> {
-    // Set up TLS termination context
-    this.tlsContext = await this.createTlsContext();
-  }
-  
-  public handleConnection(socket: Socket): void {
-    // Terminate TLS
-    const tlsSocket = this.createTlsSocket(socket, this.tlsContext);
-    
-    // Forward to HTTP backend after TLS termination
-    tlsSocket.on('data', (data) => {
-      this.forwardToHttpBackend(data);
-    });
-  }
-  
-  public handleHttpRequest(req: IncomingMessage, res: ServerResponse): void {
-    if (this.config.http?.redirectToHttps) {
-      // Redirect to HTTPS if configured
-      this.redirectToHttps(req, res);
-    } else {
-      // Handle HTTP request
-      const target = this.getTargetFromConfig();
-      this.proxyRequest(req, res, target);
-    }
-  }
-}
-
-/**
- * Handler for HTTPS termination with HTTPS backend
- */
-class HttpsTerminateToHttpsHandler extends ForwardingHandler {
-  private tlsContext: SecureContext;
-  
-  public async initialize(): Promise<void> {
-    // Set up TLS termination context
-    this.tlsContext = await this.createTlsContext();
-  }
-  
-  public handleConnection(socket: Socket): void {
-    // Terminate client TLS
-    const tlsSocket = this.createTlsSocket(socket, this.tlsContext);
-    
-    // Create new TLS connection to backend
-    tlsSocket.on('data', (data) => {
-      this.forwardToHttpsBackend(data);
-    });
-  }
-  
-  public handleHttpRequest(req: IncomingMessage, res: ServerResponse): void {
-    if (this.config.http?.redirectToHttps) {
-      // Redirect to HTTPS if configured
-      this.redirectToHttps(req, res);
-    } else {
-      // Handle HTTP request via HTTPS to backend
-      const target = this.getTargetFromConfig();
-      this.proxyRequestOverHttps(req, res, target);
-    }
-  }
-}

-## Benefits of This Approach
-
-1. **Clean, Type-Driven Design**
-   - Forwarding types clearly express intent
-   - No backward compatibility compromises
-   - Code structure follows the domain model
-
-2. **Explicit Configuration**
-   - Configuration directly maps to behavior
-   - Reduced chance of unexpected behavior
-
-3. **Modular Implementation**
-   - Each forwarding type handled by dedicated class
-   - Clear separation of concerns
-   - Easier to test and extend
-
-4. **Simplified Mental Model**
-   - Users think in terms of use cases, not low-level settings
-   - Configuration matches mental model
-
-5. **Future-Proof**
-   - Easy to add new forwarding types
-   - Clean extension points for new features
+4. **Future-Proof Design**:
+   - Clear foundation for new features
+   - Easier to implement advanced routing capabilities
+   - Better integration with modern web patterns
