-# SmartProxy Interface & Type Naming Standardization Plan
+# SmartProxy Fully Unified Configuration Plan (Updated)
 
 ## Project Goal
-Standardize interface and type naming throughout the SmartProxy codebase to improve maintainability, readability, and developer experience by:
-1. Ensuring all interfaces are prefixed with "I"
-2. Ensuring all type aliases are prefixed with "T"
-3. Maintaining backward compatibility through type aliases
-4. Updating documentation to reflect naming conventions
+Redesign SmartProxy's configuration for a more elegant, unified, and comprehensible approach by:
+1. Creating a single, unified configuration model that covers both "where to listen" and "how to forward"
+2. Eliminating the confusion between domain configs and port forwarding
+3. Providing a clear, declarative API that makes the intent obvious
+4. Enhancing maintainability and extensibility for future features
+5. Completely removing legacy code to eliminate technical debt
 
-## Phase 2: Core Module Standardization
+## Current Issues
 
-- [ ] Update core module interfaces and types
-  - [ ] Rename interfaces in `ts/core/models/common-types.ts`
-    - [ ] `AcmeOptions` → `IAcmeOptions`
-    - [ ] `DomainOptions` → `IDomainOptions`
-    - [ ] Other common interfaces
-  - [ ] Add backward compatibility aliases
-  - [ ] Update imports throughout core module
+The current approach has several issues:
 
-- [ ] Update core utility type definitions
-  - [ ] Update `ts/core/utils/validation-utils.ts`
-  - [ ] Update `ts/core/utils/ip-utils.ts`
-  - [ ] Standardize event type definitions
+1. **Dual Configuration Systems**:
+   - Port configuration (`fromPort`, `toPort`, `globalPortRanges`) for "where to listen"
+   - Domain configuration (`domainConfigs`) for "how to forward"
+   - Unclear relationship between these two systems
 
-- [ ] Test core module changes
-  - [ ] Run unit tests for core modules
-  - [ ] Verify type compatibility
-  - [ ] Ensure backward compatibility
+2. **Mixed Concerns**:
+   - Port management is mixed with forwarding logic
+   - Domain routing is separated from port listening
+   - Security settings defined in multiple places
 
-## Phase 3: Certificate Module Standardization
+3. **Complex Logic**:
+   - PortRangeManager must coordinate with domain configuration
+   - Implicit rules for handling connections based on port and domain
 
-- [ ] Update certificate interfaces
-  - [ ] Rename interfaces in `ts/certificate/models/certificate-types.ts`
-    - [ ] `CertificateData` → `ICertificateData`
-    - [ ] `Certificates` → `ICertificates`
-    - [ ] `CertificateFailure` → `ICertificateFailure`
-    - [ ] `CertificateExpiring` → `ICertificateExpiring`
-    - [ ] `ForwardConfig` → `IForwardConfig`
-    - [ ] `DomainForwardConfig` → `IDomainForwardConfig`
-  - [ ] Update ACME challenge interfaces
-  - [ ] Standardize storage provider interfaces
+4. **Difficult to Understand and Configure**:
+   - Two separate configuration hierarchies that must work together
+   - Unclear which settings take precedence
 
-- [ ] Ensure certificate provider compatibility
-  - [ ] Update provider implementations
-  - [ ] Rename internal interfaces
-  - [ ] Maintain public API compatibility
+## Proposed Solution: Fully Unified Routing Configuration
 
-- [ ] Test certificate module
-  - [ ] Verify ACME functionality
-  - [ ] Test certificate provisioning
-  - [ ] Validate challenge handling
+Replace both port and domain configuration with a single, unified configuration:
 
-## Phase 4: Forwarding System Standardization
+```typescript
+// The core unified configuration interface
+interface IRouteConfig {
+  // What to match
+  match: {
+    // Listen on these ports (required)

+    
+    // Optional domain patterns to match (default: all domains)
+    domains?: string | string[];
+    
+    // Advanced matching criteria
+    path?: string;           // Match specific paths

+        key: string;
+        cert: string;
+      };
+    };
+    
+    // For redirects
+    redirect?: {
+      to: string;            // URL or template with {domain}, {port}, etc.
+      status: 301 | 302 | 307 | 308;
+    };
+    
+    // Security options
+    security?: {
+      allowedIps?: string[];
+      blockedIps?: string[];
+      maxConnections?: number;
+      authentication?: {
+        type: 'basic' | 'digest' | 'oauth';
+        // Auth-specific options
+      };
+    };
+    
+    // Advanced options
+    advanced?: {
+      timeout?: number;
+      headers?: Record<string, string>;
+      keepAlive?: boolean;
+      // etc.
+    };
+  };
+  
+  // Optional metadata
+  name?: string;             // Human-readable name for this route
+  description?: string;      // Description of the route's purpose
+  priority?: number;         // Controls matching order (higher = matched first)
+  tags?: string[];           // Arbitrary tags for categorization
+}

 ## Implementation Strategy
 
-### Naming Pattern Rules
+### Code Organization
 
-1. **Interfaces**:
-   - All interfaces should be prefixed with "I"
-   - Example: `DomainConfig` → `IDomainConfig`
+1. **New Files**:
+   - `route-config.ts` - Core route interfaces
+   - `route-manager.ts` - Route matching and management
+   - `route-connection-handler.ts` - Connection handling with routes
+   - `route-smart-proxy.ts` - Main SmartProxy implementation
+   - `template-engine.ts` - For variable substitution
 
-2. **Type Aliases**:
-   - All type aliases should be prefixed with "T"
-   - Example: `ForwardingType` → `TForwardingType`
+2. **File Removal**:
+   - Remove `port-range-manager.ts`
+   - Remove `domain-config-manager.ts`
+   - Remove legacy interfaces and adapter code
+   - Remove backward compatibility shims
 
-3. **Enums**:
-   - Enums should be named in PascalCase without prefix
-   - Example: `CertificateSource`
+### Transition Strategy
 
-4. **Backward Compatibility**:
-   - No Backward compatibility. Remove old names.
+1. **Breaking Change Approach**:
+   - This will be a major version update with breaking changes
+   - No backward compatibility will be maintained
+   - Clear migration documentation will guide users to the new API
 
-### Module Implementation Order
+2. **Package Structure**:
+   - `@push.rocks/smartproxy` package will be updated to v14.0.0
+   - Legacy code fully removed, only route-based API exposed
+   - Support documentation provided for migration
 
-1. Core module
-2. Certificate module
-3. Forwarding module
-4. Proxy implementations
-5. HTTP & TLS modules
-6. Main exports and entry points
+3. **Migration Documentation**:
+   - Provide a migration guide with examples
+   - Show equivalent route configurations for common legacy patterns
+   - Offer code transformation helpers for complex setups
 
-### Testing Strategy
+## Benefits of the Clean Approach
 
-For each module:
-1. Rename interfaces and types
-2. Add backward compatibility aliases
-3. Update imports throughout the module
-4. Run tests to verify functionality
-5. Commit changes module by module
+1. **Reduced Complexity**:
+   - No overlapping or conflicting configuration systems
+   - No dual maintenance of backward compatibility code
+   - Simplified internal architecture
 
-## File-Specific Changes
+2. **Cleaner Code Base**:
+   - Removal of technical debt
+   - Better separation of concerns
+   - More maintainable codebase
 
-### Core Module Files
-- `ts/core/models/common-types.ts` - Primary interfaces
-- `ts/core/utils/validation-utils.ts` - Validation type definitions
-- `ts/core/utils/ip-utils.ts` - IP utility type definitions
-- `ts/core/utils/event-utils.ts` - Event type definitions 
+3. **Better User Experience**:
+   - Consistent, predictable API
+   - No confusing overlapping options
+   - Clear documentation of one approach, not two
 
-### Certificate Module Files
-- `ts/certificate/models/certificate-types.ts` - Certificate interfaces
-- `ts/certificate/acme/acme-factory.ts` - ACME factory types
-- `ts/certificate/providers/cert-provisioner.ts` - Provider interfaces
-- `ts/certificate/storage/file-storage.ts` - Storage interfaces
+4. **Future-Proof Design**:
+   - Easier to extend with new features
+   - Better performance without legacy overhead
+   - Cleaner foundation for future enhancements
 
-### Forwarding Module Files
-- `ts/forwarding/config/forwarding-types.ts` - Forwarding interfaces and types
-- `ts/forwarding/config/domain-config.ts` - Domain configuration
-- `ts/forwarding/factory/forwarding-factory.ts` - Factory interfaces
-- `ts/forwarding/handlers/*.ts` - Handler interfaces
+## Migration Support
 
-### Proxy Module Files
-- `ts/proxies/network-proxy/models/types.ts` - NetworkProxy interfaces
-- `ts/proxies/smart-proxy/models/interfaces.ts` - SmartProxy interfaces
-- `ts/proxies/nftables-proxy/models/interfaces.ts` - NfTables interfaces
-- `ts/proxies/smart-proxy/connection-manager.ts` - Connection types
+While we're removing backward compatibility from the codebase, we'll provide extensive migration support:
 
-### HTTP/TLS Module Files
-- `ts/http/models/http-types.ts` - HTTP module interfaces
-- `ts/http/port80/acme-interfaces.ts` - ACME interfaces
-- `ts/tls/sni/client-hello-parser.ts` - TLS parser types
-- `ts/tls/alerts/tls-alert.ts` - TLS alert interfaces
+1. **Migration Guide**:
+   - Detailed documentation on moving from legacy to route-based config
+   - Pattern-matching examples for all common use cases
+   - Troubleshooting guide for common migration issues
 
-## Success Criteria
+2. **Conversion Tool**:
+   - Provide a standalone one-time conversion tool
+   - Takes legacy configuration and outputs route-based equivalents
+   - Will not be included in the main package to avoid bloat
 
-- All interfaces are prefixed with "I"
-- All type aliases are prefixed with "T"
-- All tests pass with new naming conventions
-- Documentation is updated with new naming conventions
-- Backward compatibility is maintained through type aliases
-- Declaration files correctly export both naming conventions
+3. **Version Policy**:
+   - Maintain the legacy version (13.x) for security updates
+   - Make the route-based version a clear major version change (14.0.0)
+   - Clearly communicate the breaking changes
+
+## Timeline and Versioning
+
+1. **Development**:
+   - Develop route-based implementation in a separate branch
+   - Complete full test coverage of new implementation
+   - Ensure documentation is complete
+
+2. **Release**:
+   - Release as version 14.0.0
+   - Clearly mark as breaking change
+   - Provide migration guide at release time
+
+3. **Support**:
+   - Offer extended support for migration questions
+   - Consider maintaining security updates for v13.x for 6 months
+   - Focus active development on route-based version only
