One HttpClient owns a small pool of workers, each with its own CURLM; an
easy handle lives on one worker for its life. Public start/pause/resume/
cancel enqueue a command + curl_multi_wakeup(); callbacks (on_head /
on_data / on_finished) run on the worker thread and return a DataAction
(proceed / pause / abort). Covers redirects (final-response head only),
ranges (inclusive ByteRange -> CURLOPT_RANGE), proxy/SOCKS5, basic/digest
auth, cookies, verbatim headers, stall detection, a coarse recv-rate cap,
and a curl_share DNS/TLS cache across workers. CURLcode + HTTP status ->
vdm::Error in net/curl_error. A probe is on_head returning abort: it
finishes successfully (head_complete), not canceled.
Tests drive tools/testserver: full GET, ranged 206, redirect chain, 404
-> not_found, connection refused -> connect_failed, HEAD probe + ranged
0-0 probe (no body), cancel mid-transfer, pause/resume completes. Skip
cleanly if testserver isn't in the tree.

Pure formatting, no behaviour change. PKG landed .clang-format (Google
base, 4-space indent, 100 cols); this brings util/ and the test harness
into conformance so `clang-format --dry-run -Werror` is clean. Build and
all six test binaries unchanged and green.

util/ carries no wire surface, so it lands before the contract freeze.
- error: enum class Error, the engine-wide failure taxonomy; is_retryable
enumerates every value (no default:) so -Wswitch forces the retry
decision on each future addition. ErrorInfo carries context/http_status.
- result: Result<T> over std::expected<T, ErrorInfo>, Result<void>,
VDM_TRY / VDM_TRY_ASSIGN. Errors returned, never thrown, on the
transfer path.
- bytes: span aliases, LE load_le/store_le (debug-asserted precondition,
not input validation), and a bounds-checked latching ByteReader for the
.veloxpart.meta reader.
- event_bus: typed thread-safe pub/sub; header states plainly that
unsubscribe is not a quiesce point and download_task will need its own
drain.
- thread_pool: std::jthread pool; dtor joins in the body before members
die (fixed a use-after-destruction on cv_/mu_). Header notes shutdown is
drain-only and DAEMON will need a cancel mode.
- log: sink interface (core does no I/O); DAEMON installs one.
Tested: -Werror clean, 6 binaries green under plain / ASan+UBSan / TSan.

Self-contained core/CMakeLists.txt (veloxcore STATIC + velox::core alias),
warnings at target scope so the sanitizer presets' CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS override
doesn't drop -Werror. vtest: ~150-line header-only harness (VT_TEST /
VT_CHECK / VT_REQUIRE / VT_CHECK_EQ) behind a one-function vdm_add_test(),
so the swap to a real framework once PKG picks one is mechanical.

Lays out Velox Download Manager (IDM-class download manager for Ubuntu
26.04) as a monorepo ready for parallel lane development. No implementation
code by design.
- docs/: architecture, roadmap M0-M7, IDM-parity GUI spec, engine design,
Firefox extension spec, risks/spikes, packaging
- contracts/: wire-contract skeleton (JSON Schema + fixture templates) —
the single synchronization point between lanes
- docs/agents/: one brief per lane (PROTO, CORE, DAEMON, GUI, EXT, PKG/QA)
with owned directories, build order and definition of done
- CLAUDE.md: rules of engagement — lane ownership, layering, non-negotiables
- CMake scaffolding with dev/tsan/release/ci presets
Two environment findings shape the design: Firefox here is the Mozilla snap
(native-messaging risk, so the extension carries a loopback-WebSocket
fallback), and Wayland forbids passive clipboard monitoring (so clipboard
capture is explicit-action-first).
