io/sparse_file — the single O_WRONLY output file (docs/04 §4). open()
posix_fallocate's the full size (falls back to ftruncate on
EOPNOTSUPP/ENOSYS, reported via preallocated()); write_at() pwrites at an
absolute offset, looping short writes and retrying EINTR; sync() is
fdatasync (timer/pause only); advise_dontneed() is
posix_fadvise(DONTNEED); resize() trims a preallocated tail or sizes a
chunked download. errno -> vdm::Error (ENOSPC->disk_full,
EACCES->permission_denied, ENOENT/ENOTDIR/...->path_rejected). No lock on
write_at — POSIX makes each pwrite atomic for a regular file, so N
segment threads writing disjoint ranges is safe (tested, TSan-clean).
io/write_buffer — per-segment accumulate-and-flush buffer, preallocated
at construction; append() only memcpys (no allocation on the write-
callback hot path, docs/04 §8 — asserted by a global-new counter in the
test). Flushes on fill via a caller-supplied FlushFn; a chunk >= capacity
arriving on an empty buffer writes straight through. On a flush error
next_offset() stays at the last durable position. Single-threaded; the
disk-writer-thread handoff is stage 8.
Also: vtest.hpp VT_CHECK_EQ/NE now copy operands (auto, not auto&&) — an
assertion must not outlive a temporary the expression returned a
reference into (ASan caught this on Result<void>{}.error().code).

net/content_disposition — total parser for the mojibake-prone header:
RFC 6266 filename (quoted/token), RFC 5987 filename* ext-values
(charset'lang'pct-encoded, incl. RFC 2231 continuations), legacy RFC 2047
encoded-words (=?UTF-8?B?..?= / ?Q?), and raw Latin-1 bytes; prefers
filename* over filename; strips path components AFTER decoding (a base64
payload can hold '/'). 22-case test table.
net/text_codec (internal) — percent-decode, UTF-8 validation, Latin-1->
UTF-8, base64, RFC 2047 — shared by the CD parser and the URL splitter.
net/url — a small total URL splitter (scheme/userinfo/host/port/path/
query/fragment, http(s) validity) and url_filename() for the last path
segment; used for the filename fallback.
net/probe — HEAD then a ranged GET bytes=0-0 that PROVES resumability
(206 + matching Content-Range + a validator), rather than trusting
Accept-Ranges which servers lie about; the ranged GET is also the HEAD-
refused (403/405/501) fallback. 401/407 -> success result with
requires_auth, not an error. Runs on its own pool (max_concurrent,
default 4) outside the segment budget per ADR 0011 §5. suggest_filename()
does the resolution order (explicit -> disposition -> URL -> download.bin)
with a light strip; rules/ (stage 9) owns the authoritative sanitize.
tools/fuzz — libFuzzer targets for the CD parser and the URL splitter,
compiling the parser sources directly so they're fully instrumented;
self-guards on VELOX_BUILD_FUZZ + Clang (the top-level CMake adds every
tools/* unconditionally). Seed corpora included.
Fixed on the way: a p -> Transfer -> State -> cbs -> p reference cycle in
Prober that leaked every probe (drop the stored Transfer; the worker
keeps State alive). Tests green under ASan/UBSan and TSan.

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.

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).
