 # Changelog
 
+## 2026-03-16 - 4.6.1 - fix(remoteingress-core)
+avoid spurious tunnel disconnect events and increase control channel capacity
+
+- Emit TunnelDisconnected only after an established connection is actually lost, preventing false disconnect events during failed reconnect attempts.
+- Increase edge and hub control-channel buffer sizes from 64 to 256 to better prioritize control frames under load.
+
+## 2026-03-16 - 4.6.0 - feat(remoteingress-core)
+add adaptive per-stream flow control based on active stream counts
+
+- Track active stream counts on edge and hub connections to size per-stream flow control windows dynamically.
+- Cap WINDOW_UPDATE increments and read sizes to the adaptive window so bandwidth is shared more evenly across concurrent streams.
+- Apply the adaptive logic to both upload and download paths on edge and hub stream handlers.
+
+## 2026-03-16 - 4.5.12 - fix(remoteingress-core)
+improve tunnel liveness handling and enable TCP keepalive for accepted client sockets
+
+- Avoid disconnecting edges when PING or PONG frames cannot be queued because the control channel is temporarily full.
+- Enable TCP_NODELAY and TCP keepalive on accepted client connections to help detect stale or dropped clients.
+
+## 2026-03-16 - 4.5.11 - fix(repo)
+no changes to commit
+
+
+## 2026-03-16 - 4.5.10 - fix(remoteingress-core)
+guard zero-window reads to avoid false EOF handling on stalled streams
+
+- Prevent upload and download loops from calling read on an empty buffer when flow-control window remains at 0 after stall timeout
+- Log a warning and close the affected stream instead of misinterpreting Ok(0) as end-of-file
+
+## 2026-03-16 - 4.5.9 - fix(remoteingress-core)
+delay stream close until downstream response draining finishes to prevent truncated transfers
+
+- Waits for the hub-to-client download task to finish before sending the stream CLOSE frame
+- Prevents upstream reads from being cancelled mid-response during asymmetric transfers such as git fetch
+- Retains the existing timeout so stalled downloads still clean up safely
+
+## 2026-03-16 - 4.5.8 - fix(remoteingress-core)
+ensure upstream writes cancel promptly and reliably deliver CLOSE_BACK frames
+
+- listen for stream cancellation while waiting on upstream write timeouts so FRAME_CLOSE does not block for up to 60 seconds
+- replace try_send with send().await when emitting CLOSE_BACK frames to avoid silently dropping close notifications when the data channel is full
+
+## 2026-03-16 - 4.5.7 - fix(remoteingress-core)
+improve tunnel reconnect and frame write efficiency
+
+- Reuse the TLS connector across edge reconnections to preserve session resumption state and reduce reconnect latency.
+- Buffer hub and edge frame writes to coalesce small control and data frames into fewer TLS records and syscalls while still flushing each frame promptly.
+
+## 2026-03-16 - 4.5.6 - fix(remoteingress-core)
+disable Nagle's algorithm on edge, hub, and upstream TCP sockets to reduce control-frame latency
+
+- Enable TCP_NODELAY on the edge connection to the hub for faster PING/PONG and WINDOW_UPDATE delivery
+- Apply TCP_NODELAY on accepted hub streams before TLS handling
+- Enable TCP_NODELAY on SmartProxy upstream connections before sending the PROXY header
+
+## 2026-03-16 - 4.5.5 - fix(remoteingress-core)
+wait for hub-to-client draining before cleanup and reliably send close frames
+
+- switch CLOSE frame delivery on the data channel from try_send to send().await to avoid dropping it when the channel is full
+- delay stream cleanup until the hub-to-client task finishes or times out so large downstream responses continue after upload EOF
+- add a bounded 5-minute wait for download draining to prevent premature termination of asymmetric transfers such as git fetch
+
+## 2026-03-15 - 4.5.4 - fix(remoteingress-core)
+preserve stream close ordering and add flow-control stall timeouts
+
+- Send CLOSE and CLOSE_BACK frames on the data channel so they arrive after the final stream data frames.
+- Log and abort stalled upload and download paths when flow-control windows stay empty for 120 seconds.
+- Apply a 60-second timeout when writing buffered stream data to the upstream connection to prevent hung streams.
+
+## 2026-03-15 - 4.5.3 - fix(remoteingress-core)
+prioritize control frames over data in edge and hub tunnel writers
+
+- Split tunnel/frame writers into separate control and data channels in edge and hub
+- Use biased select loops so PING, PONG, WINDOW_UPDATE, OPEN, and CLOSE frames are sent before data frames
+- Route stream data through dedicated data channels while keeping OPEN, CLOSE, and flow-control updates on control channels to prevent keepalive starvation under load
+
 ## 2026-03-15 - 4.5.2 - fix(remoteingress-core)
 improve stream flow control retries and increase channel buffer capacity
