The first IP plugin, built on the data plane boundary the core already had.
Plugin:
- one X25519 key per network in the plugin's own wireguard.sqlite, separate
from the iroh identity and from the network secret; a damaged store is an
error, never a silently regenerated identity
- deterministic IPv6 ULA overlay: every member derives the same /64 from the
network id and its own /128 from its WireGuard public key, so no
coordinator allocates addresses
- AllowedIPs are derived locally, never taken from a peer's announcement, so
a member cannot claim another member's overlay address; a mismatched claim
is rejected
- bounded, versioned, validated announcement carried as the existing opaque
capability payload, which the core still never parses
- each agent builds its own full-mesh configuration (N-1 peers) and
reconciles on every change and on a timer, repairing drift
- WireguardBackend abstraction: RecordingBackend in memory, and WgToolBackend
driving real wg/ip on Linux, split into a pure planner plus parsers and a
thin executor so everything interesting is testable without root
Core, three generic additions the plugin needed:
- IpPlugin::on_network_activated, so per-network state is ready before peers
- PluginContext for re-announcements and error reports from plugin tasks,
with errors counted by the owning network runtime
- IpPlugin::shutdown, awaited with a grace period, so system objects go away
94 tests pass offline with no privileges: 35 new WireGuard unit tests and 12
integration tests over real iroh connections. The real wg/ip backend needs
root and is behind --ignored in tests/wireguard_system.rs; it was not run.
