+# SmartProxy Byte Counting Audit Report
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+After a comprehensive audit of the SmartProxy codebase, I can confirm that **byte counting is implemented correctly** with no instances of double counting. Each byte transferred through the proxy is counted exactly once in each direction.
+
+## Byte Counting Implementation
+
+### 1. Core Tracking Mechanisms
+
+SmartProxy uses two complementary tracking systems:
+
+1. **Connection Records** (`IConnectionRecord`):
+   - `bytesReceived`: Total bytes received from client
+   - `bytesSent`: Total bytes sent to client
+
+2. **MetricsCollector**:
+   - Global throughput tracking via `ThroughputTracker`
+   - Per-connection byte tracking for route/IP metrics
+   - Called via `recordBytes(connectionId, bytesIn, bytesOut)`
+
+### 2. Where Bytes Are Counted
+
+Bytes are counted in only two files:
+
+#### a) `route-connection-handler.ts`
+- **Line 351**: TLS alert bytes when no SNI is provided
+- **Lines 1286-1301**: Data forwarding callbacks in `setupBidirectionalForwarding()`
+
+#### b) `http-proxy-bridge.ts`  
+- **Line 127**: Initial TLS chunk for HttpProxy connections
+- **Lines 142-154**: Data forwarding callbacks in `setupBidirectionalForwarding()`
+
+## Connection Flow Analysis
+
+### 1. Direct TCP Connection (No TLS)
+
+```
+Client → SmartProxy → Target Server
+```
+
+1. Connection arrives at `RouteConnectionHandler.handleConnection()`
+2. For non-TLS ports, immediately routes via `routeConnection()`
+3. `setupDirectConnection()` creates target connection
+4. `setupBidirectionalForwarding()` handles all data transfer:
+   - `onClientData`: `bytesReceived += chunk.length` + `recordBytes(chunk.length, 0)`
+   - `onServerData`: `bytesSent += chunk.length` + `recordBytes(0, chunk.length)`
+
+**Result**: ✅ Each byte counted exactly once
+
+### 2. TLS Passthrough Connection
+
+```
+Client (TLS) → SmartProxy → Target Server (TLS)
+```
+
+1. Connection waits for initial data to detect TLS
+2. TLS handshake detected, SNI extracted
+3. Route matched, `setupDirectConnection()` called
+4. Initial chunk stored in `pendingData` (NOT counted yet)
+5. On target connect, `pendingData` written to target (still not counted)
+6. `setupBidirectionalForwarding()` counts ALL bytes including initial chunk
+
+**Result**: ✅ Each byte counted exactly once
+
+### 3. TLS Termination via HttpProxy
+
+```
+Client (TLS) → SmartProxy → HttpProxy (localhost) → Target Server
+```
+
+1. TLS connection detected with `tls.mode = "terminate"`
+2. `forwardToHttpProxy()` called:
+   - Initial chunk: `bytesReceived += chunk.length` + `recordBytes(chunk.length, 0)`
+3. Proxy connection created to HttpProxy on localhost
+4. `setupBidirectionalForwarding()` handles subsequent data
+
+**Result**: ✅ Each byte counted exactly once
+
+### 4. HTTP Connection via HttpProxy
+
+```
+Client (HTTP) → SmartProxy → HttpProxy (localhost) → Target Server
+```
+
+1. Connection on configured HTTP port (`useHttpProxy` ports)
+2. Same flow as TLS termination
+3. All byte counting identical to TLS termination
+
+**Result**: ✅ Each byte counted exactly once
+
+### 5. NFTables Forwarding
+
+```
+Client → [Kernel NFTables] → Target Server
+```
+
+1. Connection detected, route matched with `forwardingEngine: 'nftables'`
+2. Connection marked as `usingNetworkProxy = true`
+3. NO application-level forwarding (kernel handles packet routing)
+4. NO byte counting in application layer
+
+**Result**: ✅ No counting (correct - kernel handles everything)
+
+## Special Cases
+
+### PROXY Protocol
+- PROXY protocol headers sent to backend servers are NOT counted in client metrics
+- Only actual client data is counted
+- **Correct behavior**: Protocol overhead is not client data
+
+### TLS Alerts
+- TLS alerts (e.g., for missing SNI) are counted as sent bytes
+- **Correct behavior**: Alerts are actual data sent to the client
+
+### Initial Chunks
+- **Direct connections**: Stored in `pendingData`, counted when forwarded
+- **HttpProxy connections**: Counted immediately upon receipt
+- **Both approaches**: Count each byte exactly once
+
+## Verification Methodology
+
+1. **Code Analysis**: Searched for all instances of:
+   - `bytesReceived +=` and `bytesSent +=`
+   - `recordBytes()` calls
+   - Data forwarding implementations
+
+2. **Flow Tracing**: Followed data path for each connection type from entry to exit
+
+3. **Handler Review**: Examined all forwarding handlers to ensure no additional counting
+
+## Findings
+
+### ✅ No Double Counting Detected
+
+- Each byte is counted exactly once in the direction it flows
+- Connection records and metrics are updated consistently
+- No overlapping or duplicate counting logic found
+
+### Areas of Excellence
+
+1. **Centralized Counting**: All byte counting happens in just two files
+2. **Consistent Pattern**: Uses `setupBidirectionalForwarding()` with callbacks
+3. **Clear Separation**: Forwarding handlers don't interfere with proxy metrics
+
+## Recommendations
+
+1. **Debug Logging**: Add optional debug logging to verify byte counts in production:
+   ```typescript
+   if (settings.debugByteCount) {
+     logger.log('debug', `Bytes counted: ${connectionId} +${bytes} (total: ${record.bytesReceived})`);
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. **Unit Tests**: Create specific tests to ensure byte counting accuracy:
+   - Test initial chunk handling
+   - Test PROXY protocol overhead exclusion
+   - Test HttpProxy forwarding accuracy
+
+3. **Protocol Overhead Tracking**: Consider separately tracking:
+   - PROXY protocol headers
+   - TLS handshake bytes
+   - HTTP headers vs body
+
+4. **NFTables Documentation**: Clearly document that NFTables-forwarded connections are not included in application metrics
+
+## Conclusion
+
+SmartProxy's byte counting implementation is **robust and accurate**. The design ensures that each byte is counted exactly once, with clear separation between connection tracking and metrics collection. No remediation is required.

+# SmartProxy Development Hints
+
+## Byte Tracking and Metrics
+
+### Throughput Drift Issue (Fixed)
+
+**Problem**: Throughput numbers were gradually increasing over time for long-lived connections.
+
+**Root Cause**: The `byRoute()` and `byIP()` methods were dividing cumulative total bytes (since connection start) by the window duration, causing rates to appear higher as connections aged:
+- Hour 1: 1GB total / 60s = 17 MB/s ✓
+- Hour 2: 2GB total / 60s = 34 MB/s ✗ (appears doubled!)
+- Hour 3: 3GB total / 60s = 50 MB/s ✗ (keeps rising!)
+
+**Solution**: Implemented snapshot-based byte tracking that calculates actual bytes transferred within each time window:
+- Store periodic snapshots of byte counts with timestamps
+- Calculate delta between window start and end snapshots
+- Divide delta by window duration for accurate throughput
+
+### What Gets Counted (Network Interface Throughput)
+
+The byte tracking is designed to match network interface throughput (what Unifi/network monitoring tools show):
+
+**Counted bytes include:**
+- All application data
+- TLS handshakes and protocol overhead
+- TLS record headers and encryption padding
+- HTTP headers and protocol data
+- WebSocket frames and protocol overhead
+- TLS alerts sent to clients
+
+**NOT counted:**
+- PROXY protocol headers (sent to backend, not client)
+- TCP/IP headers (handled by OS, not visible at application layer)
+
+**Byte direction:**
+- `bytesReceived`: All bytes received FROM the client on the incoming connection
+- `bytesSent`: All bytes sent TO the client on the incoming connection
+- Backend connections are separate and not mixed with client metrics
+
+### Double Counting Issue (Fixed)
+
+**Problem**: Initial data chunks were being counted twice in the byte tracking:
+1. Once when stored in `pendingData` in `setupDirectConnection()`
+2. Again when the data flowed through bidirectional forwarding
+
+**Solution**: Removed the byte counting when storing initial chunks. Bytes are now only counted when they actually flow through the `setupBidirectionalForwarding()` callbacks.
+
+### HttpProxy Metrics (Fixed)
+
+**Problem**: HttpProxy forwarding was updating connection record byte counts but not calling `metricsCollector.recordBytes()`, resulting in missing throughput data.
+
+**Solution**: Added `metricsCollector.recordBytes()` calls to the HttpProxy bidirectional forwarding callbacks.
+
+### Metrics Architecture
+
+The metrics system has three layers:
+1. **Connection Records** (`record.bytesReceived/bytesSent`): Track total bytes per connection
+2. **ThroughputTracker**: Accumulates bytes between samples for global rate calculations (resets each second)
+3. **connectionByteTrackers**: Track bytes per connection with snapshots for accurate windowed per-route/IP metrics
+
+Key features:
+- Global throughput uses sampling with accumulator reset (accurate)
+- Per-route/IP throughput uses snapshots to calculate window-specific deltas (accurate)
+- All byte counting happens exactly once at the data flow point
+
+### Understanding "High" Byte Counts
+
+If byte counts seem high compared to actual application data, remember:
+- TLS handshakes can be 1-5KB depending on cipher suites and certificates
+- Each TLS record has 5 bytes of header overhead
+- TLS encryption adds 16-48 bytes of padding/MAC per record
+- HTTP/2 has additional framing overhead
+- WebSocket has frame headers (2-14 bytes per message)
+
+This overhead is real network traffic and should be counted for accurate throughput metrics.
+
+### Byte Counting Paths
+
+There are two mutually exclusive paths for connections:
+
+1. **Direct forwarding** (route-connection-handler.ts):
+   - Used for TCP passthrough, TLS passthrough, and direct connections
+   - Bytes counted in `setupBidirectionalForwarding` callbacks
+   - Initial chunk NOT counted separately (flows through bidirectional forwarding)
+
+2. **HttpProxy forwarding** (http-proxy-bridge.ts):
+   - Used for TLS termination (terminate, terminate-and-reencrypt)
+   - Initial chunk counted when written to proxy
+   - All subsequent bytes counted in `setupBidirectionalForwarding` callbacks
+   - This is the ONLY counting point for these connections
+
+### Byte Counting Audit (2025-01-06)
+
+A comprehensive audit was performed to verify byte counting accuracy:
+
+**Audit Results:**
+- ✅ No double counting detected in any connection flow
+- ✅ Each byte counted exactly once in each direction
+- ✅ Connection records and metrics updated consistently
+- ✅ PROXY protocol headers correctly excluded from client metrics
+- ✅ NFTables forwarded connections correctly not counted (kernel handles)
+
+**Key Implementation Points:**
+- All byte counting happens in only 2 files: `route-connection-handler.ts` and `http-proxy-bridge.ts`
+- Both use the same pattern: increment `record.bytesReceived/Sent` AND call `metricsCollector.recordBytes()`
+- Initial chunks handled correctly: stored but not counted until forwarded
+- TLS alerts counted as sent bytes (correct - they are sent to client)
+
+For full audit details, see `readme.byte-counting-audit.md`
+
+## Connection Cleanup
+
+### Zombie Connection Detection
+
+The connection manager performs comprehensive zombie detection every 10 seconds:
+- **Full zombies**: Both incoming and outgoing sockets destroyed but connection not cleaned up
+- **Half zombies**: One socket destroyed, grace period expired (5 minutes for TLS, 30 seconds for non-TLS)
+- **Stuck connections**: Data received but none sent back after threshold (5 minutes for TLS, 60 seconds for non-TLS)
+
+### Cleanup Queue
+
+Connections are cleaned up through a batched queue system:
+- Batch size: 100 connections
+- Processing triggered immediately when batch size reached
+- Otherwise processed after 100ms delay
+- Prevents overwhelming the system during mass disconnections
+
+## Keep-Alive Handling
+
+Keep-alive connections receive special treatment based on `keepAliveTreatment` setting:
+- **standard**: Normal timeout applies
+- **extended**: Timeout multiplied by `keepAliveInactivityMultiplier` (default 6x)
+- **immortal**: No timeout, connections persist indefinitely
+
+## PROXY Protocol
+
+The system supports both receiving and sending PROXY protocol:
+- **Receiving**: Automatically detected from trusted proxy IPs (configured in `proxyIPs`)
+- **Sending**: Enabled per-route or globally via `sendProxyProtocol` setting
+- Real client IP is preserved and used for all connection tracking and security checks
