feat: TCP fallback, query minimization, UDP auto-disable
...
Transport resilience for restrictive networks (ISPs blocking UDP:53):
- DNS-over-TCP fallback: UDP fail/truncation → automatic TCP retry
- UDP auto-disable: after 3 consecutive failures, switch to TCP-first
- IPv6 → TCP directly (UDP socket binds 0.0.0.0, can't reach IPv6)
- Network change resets UDP detection for re-probing
- Root hint rotation in TLD priming
Privacy:
- RFC 7816 query minimization: root servers see TLD only, not full name
Code quality:
- Merged find_starting_ns + find_starting_zone → find_closest_ns
- Extracted resolve_ns_addrs_from_glue shared helper
- Removed overall timeout wrapper (per-hop timeouts sufficient)
- forward_tcp for DNS-over-TCP (RFC 1035 §4.2.2)
Testing:
- Mock TCP-only DNS server for fallback tests (no network needed)
- tcp_fallback_resolves_when_udp_blocked
- tcp_only_iterative_resolution
- tcp_fallback_handles_nxdomain
- udp_auto_disable_resets
- Integration test suite (4 suites, 51 tests)
- Network probe script (tests/network-probe.sh)

feat: recursive resolution + full DNSSEC validation
...
Numa becomes a true DNS resolver — resolves from root nameservers
with complete DNSSEC chain-of-trust verification.
Recursive resolution:
- Iterative RFC 1034 from configurable root hints (13 default)
- CNAME chasing (depth 8), referral following (depth 10)
- A+AAAA glue extraction, IPv6 nameserver support
- TLD priming: NS + DS + DNSKEY for 34 gTLDs + EU ccTLDs
- Config: mode = "recursive" in [upstream], root_hints, prime_tlds
DNSSEC (all 4 phases):
- EDNS0 OPT pseudo-record (DO bit, 1232 payload per DNS Flag Day 2020)
- DNSKEY, DS, RRSIG, NSEC, NSEC3 record types with wire read/write
- Signature verification via ring: RSA/SHA-256, ECDSA P-256, Ed25519
- Chain-of-trust: zone DNSKEY → parent DS → root KSK (key tag 20326)
- DNSKEY RRset self-signature verification (RRSIG(DNSKEY) by KSK)
- RRSIG expiration/inception time validation
- NSEC: NXDOMAIN gap proofs, NODATA type absence, wildcard denial
- NSEC3: SHA-1 iterated hashing, closest encloser proof, hash range
- Authority RRSIG verification for denial proofs
- Config: [dnssec] enabled/strict (default false, opt-in)
- AD bit on Secure, SERVFAIL on Bogus+strict
- DnssecStatus cached per entry, ValidationStats logging
Performance:
- TLD chain pre-warmed on startup (root DNSKEY + TLD DS/DNSKEY)
- Referral DS piggybacking from authority sections
- DNSKEY prefetch before validation loop
- Cold-cache validation: ~1 DNSKEY fetch (down from 5)
- Benchmarks: RSA 10.9µs, ECDSA 174ns, DS verify 257ns
Also:
- write_qname fix for root domain "." (was producing malformed queries)
- write_record_header() dedup, write_bytes() bulk writes
- DnsRecord::domain() + query_type() accessors
- UpstreamMode enum, DEFAULT_EDNS_PAYLOAD const
- Real glue TTL (was hardcoded 3600)
- DNSSEC restricted to recursive mode only

feat: self-host fonts, styled block page, wildcard TLS ( #16 )
...
* perf: optimize hot path — RwLock, inline filtering, pre-allocated strings
- Mutex → RwLock for cache, blocklist, and overrides (concurrent read access)
- Make cache.lookup() and overrides.lookup() take &self (read-only)
- Eliminate 3 Vec allocations per DnsPacket::write() via inline filtering
- Pre-allocate domain strings with capacity 64 in parse path
- Add criterion micro-benchmarks (hot_path + throughput)
- Add bench README documenting both benchmark suites
Measured improvement: ~14% faster parsing, ~9% pipeline throughput,
round-trip cached 733ns → 698ns (~2.3M queries/sec).

* chore: simplify benchmark code after review
- Remove redundant DnsHeader::new() (already set by DnsPacket::new())
- Remove unused DnsHeader import
- Change simulate_cached_pipeline to take &DnsCache (lookup is &self now)
- Remove unnecessary mut on cache in cache_lookup_miss bench
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com >
* site: landing page overhaul, blog, benchmarks, numa.rs domain
Landing page:
- Split features into 3-layer card layout (Block & Protect, Developer Tools, Self-Sovereign DNS)
- Add DoH and conditional forwarding to comparison table
- Fix performance claim (2.3M → 2.0M qps to match benchmarks)
- Add all 3 install methods (brew, cargo, curl)
- Add OG tags + canonical URL for numa.rs
- Fix code block whitespace rendering
- Update roadmap with .onion bridge phase
Blog:
- Add "Building a DNS Resolver from Scratch in Rust" post
- Blog index + template for future posts
Other:
- CNAME for GitHub Pages (numa.rs)
- Benchmark results (bench/results.json)

* feat: self-host fonts, styled block page, wildcard TLS
Fonts:
- Replace Google Fonts CDN with self-hosted woff2 (73KB, 5 files)
- Serve fonts from API server via include_bytes! (dashboard works offline)
- Proxy error pages use system fonts (zero external deps when DNS is broken)
- Fix Instrument Serif font-weight: use 400 (only available weight) instead of synthetic bold 600/700
Proxy:
- Styled "Blocked by Numa" page when blocked domain hits the proxy (was confusing "not a .numa domain" error)
- Extract shared error_page() template for 403 + 404 pages (deduplicate ~160 lines of CSS)
TLS:
- Add wildcard SAN *.numa to cert — unregistered .numa domains get valid HTTPS (styled 404 without cert warning)

update roadmap, add network economics doc, remove CLAUDE.md from repo
...
- Expanded roadmap: pkarr → global .numa names → audit protocol →
proof-of-service chain → .onion bridge
- Added docs/numa-network-economics.md: token model, proof-of-service,
chain design, competitive analysis vs Namecoin/ENS/Handshake
- Removed CLAUDE.md from repo (stays in .gitignore, local only)
- Unignored docs/ directory

add local service proxy with .numa domains
...
HTTP reverse proxy on port 80 lets developers use clean domain names
(frontend.numa, api.numa) instead of localhost:PORT. Includes WebSocket
upgrade support for HMR, TCP health checks, dashboard UI panel, and
REST API for service management. numa.numa is preconfigured for the
dashboard itself.
