 # Changelog
 
+## 2026-03-31 - 1.16.4 - fix(server)
+register preloaded WireGuard clients as peers on server startup
+
+- Adds configured clients from the runtime registry to the WireGuard listener when the server starts.
+- Ensures clients loaded from config can complete WireGuard handshakes without requiring separate peer registration.
+- Logs a warning if automatic peer registration fails for an individual client.
+
+## 2026-03-31 - 1.16.3 - fix(rust-nat)
+defer TCP bridge startup until handshake completion and buffer partial NAT socket writes
+
+- Start TCP bridge tasks only after the smoltcp socket becomes active to prevent server data from arriving before the client handshake completes.
+- Buffer pending TCP payloads and flush partial writes so bridge-to-socket data is not silently lost under backpressure.
+- Keep closing TCP sessions alive until FIN processing completes and add logging for dropped packets when bridge or route channels are full.
+
+## 2026-03-31 - 1.16.2 - fix(wireguard)
+sync runtime peer management with client registration and derive the correct server public key from the WireGuard private key
+
+- Register, remove, and rotate WireGuard peers in the running listener when clients are added, deleted, or rekeyed.
+- Generate client WireGuard configs with the public key derived from the configured WireGuard private key instead of reusing the generic server public key.
+- Handle expired WireGuard sessions by re-initiating handshakes and mark client state as handshaking until the tunnel becomes active.
+- Improve allowed IP matching and peer VPN IP extraction for runtime packet routing.
+
+## 2026-03-30 - 1.16.1 - fix(rust/server)
+add serde alias for clientAllowedIPs in server config
+
+- Accepts the camelCase clientAllowedIPs field when deserializing server configuration.
+- Improves compatibility with existing or external configuration formats without changing runtime behavior.
+
+## 2026-03-30 - 1.16.0 - feat(server)
+add configurable client endpoint and allowed IPs for generated VPN configs
+
+- adds serverEndpoint to generated SmartVPN and WireGuard client configs so remote clients can use a public address instead of the listen address
+- adds clientAllowedIPs to generated WireGuard configs to support full-tunnel or split-tunnel routing
+- updates TypeScript interfaces to expose the new server configuration options
+
+## 2026-03-30 - 1.15.0 - feat(vpnserver)
+add nftables-backed destination policy enforcement for TUN mode
+
+- add @push.rocks/smartnftables dependency and export it through the plugin layer
+- apply destination policy rules via nftables when starting the server in TUN mode
+- add periodic nftables health checks and best-effort cleanup on server stop
+- update documentation for destination routing policy, socket transport mode, trusted client tags, events, and service generation
+
 ## 2026-03-30 - 1.14.0 - feat(nat)
 add destination routing policy support for socket-mode VPN traffic

+### IPC Transport Modes
+
+The bridge between TypeScript and Rust supports two transport modes:
+
+| Mode | Use Case | How It Works |
+|------|----------|-------------|
+| **stdio** | Development, testing | Spawns the Rust daemon as a child process, communicates over stdin/stdout |
+| **socket** | Production | Connects to an already-running daemon via Unix domain socket, with optional auto-reconnect |
+
+```typescript
+// Development: spawn the daemon
+const server = new VpnServer({ transport: { transport: 'stdio' } });
+
+// Production: connect to running daemon
+const server = new VpnServer({
+  transport: {
+    transport: 'socket',
+    socketPath: '/var/run/smartvpn.sock',
+    autoReconnect: true,
+    reconnectBaseDelayMs: 100,
+    reconnectMaxDelayMs: 5000,
+    maxReconnectAttempts: 10,
+  },
+});
+```

+### 🎯 Destination Routing Policy
+
+Control where decrypted VPN client traffic goes — force it to a specific target, block it, or allow it through. Evaluated per-packet before per-client ACLs.
+
+```typescript
+await server.start({
+  // ...
+  forwardingMode: 'socket', // userspace NAT mode
+  destinationPolicy: {
+    default: 'forceTarget',                    // redirect all traffic to a target
+    target: '127.0.0.1',                       // target IP for 'forceTarget' mode
+    allowList: ['10.0.0.0/8'],                 // these destinations pass through directly
+    blockList: ['10.0.0.99'],                  // always blocked (deny overrides allow)
+  },
+});
+```
+
+**Policy modes:**
+
+| Mode | Behavior |
+|------|----------|
+| `'forceTarget'` | Rewrites destination IP to `target` — funnels all traffic through a single endpoint |
+| `'block'` | Drops all traffic not explicitly in `allowList` |
+| `'allow'` | Passes all traffic through (default, backward compatible) |
+
+In **TUN mode**, destination policies are enforced via **nftables** rules (using `@push.rocks/smartnftables`). A 60-second health check automatically re-applies rules if they're removed externally.
+
+In **socket mode**, the policy is evaluated in the userspace NAT engine before per-client ACLs.
+
+### 🔗 Socket Forward Proxy Protocol
+
+When using `forwardingMode: 'socket'` (userspace NAT), you can prepend **PROXY protocol v2 headers** on outbound TCP connections. This conveys the VPN client's tunnel IP as the source address to downstream services (e.g., SmartProxy):
+
+```typescript
+await server.start({
+  // ...
+  forwardingMode: 'socket',
+  socketForwardProxyProtocol: true,  // downstream sees VPN client IP, not 127.0.0.1
+});
+```

+### 🏷️ Client Tags (Trusted vs Informational)
+
+SmartVPN separates server-managed tags from client-reported tags:
+
+| Field | Set By | Trust Level | Use For |
+|-------|--------|-------------|---------|
+| `serverDefinedClientTags` | Server admin (via `createClient` / `updateClient`) | ✅ Trusted | Access control, routing, billing |
+| `clientDefinedClientTags` | Client (reported after connection) | ⚠️ Informational | Diagnostics, client self-identification |
+| `tags` | *(deprecated)* | — | Legacy alias for `serverDefinedClientTags` |
+
+```typescript
+// Server-side: trusted tags
+await server.createClient({
+  clientId: 'alice-laptop',
+  serverDefinedClientTags: ['engineering', 'office-berlin'],
+});
+
+// Client-side: informational tags (reported to server)
+await client.connect({

+Generate systemd (Linux) or launchd (macOS) service units:
+
 ```typescript
 import { VpnInstaller } from '@push.rocks/smartvpn';
 
 const unit = VpnInstaller.generateServiceUnit({
+  binaryPath: '/usr/local/bin/smartvpn_daemon',
+  socketPath: '/var/run/smartvpn.sock',
   mode: 'server',
-  configPath: '/etc/smartvpn/server.json',
 });
-// unit.platform  → 'linux' | 'macos'

+// unit.platform    → 'linux' | 'macos'
+// unit.content     → systemd unit file or launchd plist
 // unit.installPath → /etc/systemd/system/smartvpn-server.service
 ```
 
+You can also call `generateSystemdUnit()` or `generateLaunchdPlist()` directly for platform-specific options like custom descriptions.
+
+### 📢 Events
+
+Both `VpnServer` and `VpnClient` extend `EventEmitter` and emit typed events:
+
+```typescript
+server.on('client-connected', (info: IVpnClientInfo) => {
+  console.log(`${info.registeredClientId} connected from ${info.remoteAddr} via ${info.transportType}`);
+});
+
+server.on('client-disconnected', ({ clientId, reason }) => {
+  console.log(`${clientId} disconnected: ${reason}`);
+});
+
+client.on('status', (status: IVpnStatus) => {
+  console.log(`State: ${status.state}, IP: ${status.assignedIp}`);
+});
+
+// Both server and client emit:
+server.on('exit', ({ code, signal }) => { /* daemon process exited */ });
+server.on('reconnected', () => { /* socket transport reconnected */ });
+```
+
+| Event | Emitted By | Payload |
+|-------|-----------|---------|
+| `status` | Both | `IVpnStatus` — connection state changes |
+| `error` | Both | `{ message, code? }` |
+| `client-connected` | Server | `IVpnClientInfo` — full client info including transport type |
+| `client-disconnected` | Server | `{ clientId, reason? }` |
+| `exit` | Both | `{ code, signal }` — daemon process exited |
+| `reconnected` | Both | `void` — socket transport reconnected |
+
