-# SmartProxy Project Hints
-
-## Project Overview
-- Package: `@push.rocks/smartproxy` – high-performance proxy supporting HTTP(S), TCP, WebSocket, and ACME integration.
-- Written in TypeScript, compiled output in `dist_ts/`, uses ESM with NodeNext resolution.
-
-## Repository Structure
-- `ts/` – TypeScript source files:
-  - `index.ts` exports main modules.
-  - `plugins.ts` centralizes native and third-party imports.
-  - Subdirectories: `networkproxy/`, `nftablesproxy/`, `port80handler/`, `redirect/`, `smartproxy/`.
-  - Key classes: `ProxyRouter` (`classes.router.ts`), `SmartProxy` (`classes.smartproxy.ts`), plus handlers/managers.
-- `dist_ts/` – transpiled `.js` and `.d.ts` files mirroring `ts/` structure.
-- `test/` – test suites in TypeScript:
-  - `test.router.ts` – routing logic (hostname matching, wildcards, path parameters, config management).
-  - `test.smartproxy.ts` – proxy behavior tests (TCP forwarding, SNI handling, concurrency, chaining, timeouts).
-  - `test/helpers/` – utilities (e.g., certificates).
-- `assets/certs/` – placeholder certificates for ACME and TLS.
-
-## Development Setup
-- Requires `pnpm` (v10+).
-- Install dependencies: `pnpm install`.
-- Build: `pnpm build` (runs `tsbuild --web --allowimplicitany`).
-- Test: `pnpm test` (runs `tstest test/`).
-- Format: `pnpm format` (runs `gitzone format`).
-
-## Testing Framework
-- Uses `@push.rocks/tapbundle` (`tap`, `expect`, `expactAsync`).
-- Test files: must start with `test.` and use `.ts` extension.
-- Run specific tests via `tsx`, e.g., `tsx test/test.router.ts`.
-
-## Coding Conventions
-- Import modules via `plugins.ts`:
-  ```ts
-  import * as plugins from './plugins.ts';
-  const server = new plugins.http.Server();
-  ```
-- Reference plugins with full path: `plugins.acme`, `plugins.smartdelay`, `plugins.minimatch`, etc.
-- Path patterns support globs (`*`) and parameters (`:param`) in `ProxyRouter`.
-- Wildcard hostname matching leverages `minimatch` patterns.
-
-## Key Components
-- **ProxyRouter**
-  - Methods: `routeReq`, `routeReqWithDetails`.
-  - Hostname matching: case-insensitive, strips port, supports exact, wildcard, TLD, complex patterns.
-  - Path routing: exact, wildcard, parameter extraction (`pathParams`), returns `pathMatch` and `pathRemainder`.
-  - Config API: `setNewProxyConfigs`, `addProxyConfig`, `removeProxyConfig`, `getHostnames`, `getProxyConfigs`.
-- **SmartProxy**
-  - Manages one or more `net.Server` instances to forward TCP streams.
-  - Options: `preserveSourceIP`, `defaultAllowedIPs`, `globalPortRanges`, `sniEnabled`.
-  - DomainConfigManager: round-robin selection for multiple target IPs.
-  - Graceful shutdown in `stop()`, ensures no lingering servers or sockets.
-
-## Notable Points
-- **TSConfig**: `module: NodeNext`, `verbatimModuleSyntax`, allows `.js` extension imports in TS.
-- Mermaid diagrams and architecture flows in `readme.md` illustrate component interactions and protocol flows.
-- CLI entrypoint (`cli.js`) supports command-line usage (ACME, proxy controls).
-- ACME and certificate handling via `Port80Handler` and `helpers.certificates.ts`.
-
-## TODOs / Considerations
-- Ensure import extensions in source match build outputs (`.ts` vs `.js`).
-- Update `plugins.ts` when adding new dependencies.
-- Maintain test coverage for new routing or proxy features.
-- Keep `ts/` and `dist_ts/` in sync after refactors.

-# SmartProxy Unified Forwarding Configuration 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.
-
-## 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
-
-This separation creates configuration complexity and reduced cohesion between related settings.
-
-## Proposed Solution: Clean Use-Case Driven Forwarding Interface
-
-### Phase 1: Design Streamlined Forwarding Interface
-
-- [ ] Create a use-case driven `IForwardConfig` interface that simplifies configuration:
-
-```typescript
-export interface IForwardConfig {
-  // Define the primary forwarding type - use-case driven approach
-  type: 'http-only' | 'https-passthrough' | 'https-terminate-to-http' | 'https-terminate-to-https';
-  
-  // Target configuration
-  target: {
-    host: string | string[];  // Support single host or round-robin
-    port: number;
-  };
-  
-  // HTTP-specific options
-  http?: {
-    enabled?: boolean;                 // Defaults to true for http-only, optional for others
-    redirectToHttps?: boolean;         // Redirect HTTP to HTTPS
-    headers?: Record<string, string>;  // Custom headers for HTTP responses
-  };
-  
-  // HTTPS-specific options
-  https?: {
-    customCert?: {                    // Use custom cert instead of auto-provisioned
-      key: string;
-      cert: string;
-    };
-    forwardSni?: boolean;             // Forward SNI info in passthrough mode
-  };
-  
-  // ACME certificate handling
-  acme?: {
-    enabled?: boolean;                // Enable ACME certificate provisioning  
-    maintenance?: boolean;            // Auto-renew certificates
-    production?: boolean;             // Use production ACME servers
-    forwardChallenges?: {             // Forward ACME challenges
-      host: string;
-      port: number;
-      useTls?: boolean;
-    };
-  };
-  
-  // Security options
-  security?: { 
-    allowedIps?: string[];            // IPs allowed to connect
-    blockedIps?: string[];            // IPs blocked from connecting
-    maxConnections?: number;          // Max simultaneous connections
-  };
-  
-  // Advanced options
-  advanced?: {
-    portRanges?: Array<{ from: number; to: number }>; // Allowed port ranges
-    networkProxyPort?: number;        // Custom NetworkProxy port if using terminate mode
-    keepAlive?: boolean;              // Enable TCP keepalive
-    timeout?: number;                 // Connection timeout in ms
-    headers?: Record<string, string>; // Custom headers with support for variables like {sni}
-  };
-}
-```
-
-### Phase 2: Create New Domain Configuration Interface
-
-- [ ] Replace existing `IDomainConfig` interface with a new one using the forwarding pattern:
-
-```typescript
-export interface IDomainConfig {
-  // Core properties
-  domains: string[];  // Domain patterns to match
-  
-  // Unified forwarding configuration
-  forwarding: IForwardConfig;
-}
-```
-
-### Phase 3: Implement Forwarding Handler System
-
-- [ ] Create an implementation strategy focused on the new forwarding types:
-
-```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;
-}
-
-/**
- * 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}`);
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Usage Examples for Common Scenarios
-
-### 1. Basic HTTP Server
-
-```typescript
-{
-  domains: ['example.com'],
-  forwarding: {
-    type: 'http-only',
-    target: {
-      host: 'localhost',
-      port: 3000
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 2. HTTPS Termination with HTTP Backend
-
-```typescript
-{
-  domains: ['secure.example.com'],
-  forwarding: {
-    type: 'https-terminate-to-http',
-    target: {
-      host: 'localhost',
-      port: 3000
-    },
-    acme: {
-      production: true  // Use production Let's Encrypt
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 3. HTTPS Termination with HTTPS Backend
-
-```typescript
-{
-  domains: ['secure-backend.example.com'],
-  forwarding: {
-    type: 'https-terminate-to-https',
-    target: {
-      host: 'internal-api',
-      port: 8443
-    },
-    http: {
-      redirectToHttps: true  // Redirect HTTP requests to HTTPS
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 4. SNI Passthrough
-
-```typescript
-{
-  domains: ['passthrough.example.com'],
-  forwarding: {
-    type: 'https-passthrough',
-    target: {
-      host: '10.0.0.5',
-      port: 443
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 5. Mixed HTTP/HTTPS with Custom ACME Forwarding
-
-```typescript
-{
-  domains: ['mixed.example.com'],
-  forwarding: {
-    type: 'https-terminate-to-http',
-    target: {
-      host: 'localhost',
-      port: 3000
-    },
-    http: {
-      redirectToHttps: false  // Allow both HTTP and HTTPS access
-    },
-    acme: {
-      enabled: true,
-      maintenance: true,
-      forwardChallenges: {
-        host: '192.168.1.100',
-        port: 8080
-      }
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 6. Load-Balanced Backend
-
-```typescript
-{
-  domains: ['api.example.com'],
-  forwarding: {
-    type: 'https-terminate-to-https',
-    target: {
-      host: ['10.0.0.10', '10.0.0.11', '10.0.0.12'], // Round-robin
-      port: 8443
-    },
-    security: {
-      allowedIps: ['10.0.0.*', '192.168.1.*']  // Restrict access
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 7. Advanced Proxy Chain with Custom Headers
-
-```typescript
-{
-  domains: ['secure-chain.example.com'],
-  forwarding: {
-    type: 'https-terminate-to-https',
-    target: {
-      host: 'backend-gateway.internal',
-      port: 443
-    },
-    advanced: {
-      // Pass original client info to backend
-      headers: {
-        'X-Original-SNI': '{sni}',
-        'X-Client-IP': '{clientIp}'
-      }
-    }
-  }
-}
-```

-
-## Detailed Type Documentation
-
-### 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

-      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
