- Local TLS: auto-generated CA + per-service certs (explicit SANs, not wildcards — browsers reject *.numa under single-label TLDs). HTTPS proxy on :443 via rustls/tokio-rustls. `numa install` trusts CA in macOS Keychain / Linux ca-certificates. - Service persistence: user-added services saved to ~/.config/numa/services.json, survive restarts. - Blocking panel: renamed "Check Domain" to "Blocking" with sources display, allowlist management UI, unpause button. - Query types: recognize SOA, PTR, TXT, SRV, HTTPS (type 65) instead of logging as UNKNOWN. - Blocklist gzip: reqwest now decompresses gzip responses from CDNs. - Unified config_dir() in lib.rs for consistent path resolution under sudo and launchd. TLS certs use /usr/local/var/numa/ (writable as root daemon). - Dashboard UX: panel subtitles differentiating overrides vs services, better placeholders, proxy route display, 600px query log height. - Deploy: make deploy handles build+copy+codesign+restart cycle. - Demo: scripts/record-demo.sh for recording hero GIF with CDP.

# CLAUDE.md
|
|
|
|
This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
**Numa** — a portable DNS resolver with ad blocking, developer overrides, and a live dashboard. Built from scratch in Rust. Named after Numa Pompilius, the Roman king who established lasting institutions.
|
|
|
|
Today: DNS forwarding/caching proxy with ad blocking, ephemeral overrides, live dashboard, and system DNS integration.
|
|
Next: Self-sovereign DNS via pkarr/Mainline DHT.
|
|
Vision: Incentivized resolver network with staking, challenge-based auditing, and token economics.
|
|
|
|
## Build & Run
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cargo build # compile
|
|
sudo cargo run # run with default config (numa.toml)
|
|
sudo cargo run -- path/to/config # run with custom config path
|
|
RUST_LOG=debug sudo cargo run # verbose logging
|
|
make lint # clippy + rustfmt check
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Test with: `dig @127.0.0.1 google.com`
|
|
|
|
CLI commands:
|
|
```bash
|
|
numa help # show all commands
|
|
numa install # set system DNS to 127.0.0.1
|
|
numa uninstall # restore original DNS
|
|
numa service start # install as persistent service (launchd/systemd)
|
|
numa service stop # uninstall service + restore DNS
|
|
numa service status # check service status
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Dashboard: http://numa.numa (or http://localhost:5380)
|
|
|
|
## Architecture
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
UDP :53 ──▶ handle_query()
|
|
│
|
|
├─ 1. Override Store (ephemeral, auto-expiry)
|
|
├─ 2. .numa TLD (local service domains → 127.0.0.1)
|
|
├─ 3. Blocklist (385K+ domains, subdomain matching)
|
|
├─ 4. Local Zones (TOML config)
|
|
├─ 5. Cache (TTL-aware, lazy eviction)
|
|
└─ 6. Upstream Forward (auto-detected from OS, conditional forwarding)
|
|
|
|
HTTP :80 ──▶ Reverse proxy for .numa domains (WebSocket support)
|
|
HTTPS :443 ──▶ TLS reverse proxy (auto-generated local CA + wildcard *.numa cert)
|
|
HTTP :5380 ──▶ Axum REST API (22+ endpoints) + Dashboard
|
|
```
|
|
|

## Config
|
|
|
|
`numa.toml` at project root. Sections: `[server]`, `[upstream]`, `[cache]`, `[blocking]`, `[proxy]`, `[[services]]`, `[[zones]]`. Falls back to sensible defaults if file is missing. Upstream auto-detected from system resolver if not set.
|
|
|
|
## REST API
|
|
|
|
Dashboard: GET `/` (embedded HTML)
|
|
Override management: POST/GET/DELETE `/overrides`, POST `/overrides/environment`
|
|
Services: GET/POST `/services`, DELETE `/services/{name}`
|
|
Blocking: GET `/blocking/stats`, PUT `/blocking/toggle`, POST `/blocking/pause`, POST `/blocking/unpause`, GET/POST `/blocking/allowlist`, GET `/blocking/check/{domain}`
|
|
Diagnostics: GET `/diagnose/{domain}`, `/query-log`, `/stats`, `/cache`, `/health`
|
|
Cache: DELETE `/cache`, `/cache/{domain}`
|
|
|
|
## Key Details
|
|
|
|
- Rust 2021 edition, async via `tokio` (rt-multi-thread)
|
|
- Deps: tokio, axum, hyper, hyper-util, serde, serde_json, toml, log, env_logger, reqwest, futures, rcgen, rustls, tokio-rustls, time (zero DNS libraries)
|
|
- Shared config dir: `~/.config/numa/` via `config_dir()` in `lib.rs` (handles sudo correctly)
|
|
- TLS: auto-generated local CA + wildcard `*.numa` cert at `~/.config/numa/`. `numa install` trusts CA in OS keychain.
|
|
- Service persistence: user-added services saved to `~/.config/numa/services.json`, survives restarts
|
|
- Deploy workflow: `make deploy` (build release → copy → codesign → kill → launchd respawns)
|
|
- DNS buffer size: 4096 bytes (EDNS-compatible). UNKNOWN record types (e.g. OPT) filtered on serialization.
|
|
- `BytePacketBuffer::read_qname` handles label compression (pointer jumps)
|
|
- `type Error = Box<dyn std::error::Error + Send + Sync>` / `type Result<T>` aliased in `lib.rs`
|
|
- Shared state via `Arc<ServerCtx>` with `std::sync::Mutex` (sub-microsecond holds, never across `.await`)
|
|
- Cache: TTL clamped between `min_ttl` and `max_ttl`, lazy eviction every 1000 queries
|
|
- Blocklist: parsed outside lock, swapped atomically. `is_blocked()` takes `&self` (read-only).
|
|
- Upstream: auto-detected from `scutil --dns` (macOS) or `/etc/resolv.conf` (Linux). Falls back to Quad9.
|
|
- Conditional forwarding: Tailscale/VPN domains auto-routed to correct upstream.
|
|
- macOS service: launchd plist with KeepAlive + RunAtLoad. Use `launchctl bootstrap/bootout` (not load/unload).
|
|
- Logging controlled via `RUST_LOG` env var. Default: `info`
