DAEMON's daemon/docs/proto-requests-m1.md P1: velox::proto::Dispatcher's
on_* methods returned Result<T> = expected<T, ParseError>, and dispatch()
mapped every handler error to -32603 InternalError. A handler had no way to
return -32010 (download.get not-found), -32011 (download.add invalid-path)
or -32013 (probe-failed) with their data payloads -- three error fixtures a
conformant server must satisfy were unreachable, blocking DAEMON's
"conformance as a server" M1 DoD.
Two error channels now, kept separate on purpose:
- parse: Result<T> / ParseError -- dispatch() failing to turn the wire into
typed params. Always -32602, always structural.
- handler: HandlerResult<T> / HandlerError -- a handler deciding the request
can't be fulfilled. Carries any ErrorCode + message + free-form data.
struct HandlerError {
ErrorCode code{ErrorCode::InternalError}; // bare {} is a valid -32603
std::string message;
nlohmann::json data = nullptr; // straight into the error's data
};
template <class T> using HandlerResult = std::expected<T, HandlerError>;
dispatch()'s handler branch is now
make_error(id, r.error().code, r.error().message, r.error().data)
instead of a hard-coded InternalError. -32001/-32002/-32003 stay the server
layer's to raise around dispatch(), as DAEMON already does.
Verified end to end against the real dispatch() path: a handler returning
TaskNotFound/InvalidPath/ProbeFailed produces -32010/-32011/-32013 with the
data object intact, and a bare HandlerError{} still yields a clean -32603
with no data field. The `= nullptr` on the member (not `{nullptr}`) matters:
brace-init of nlohmann::json from nullptr is the array [null], not JSON null.
FixtureDispatcher regenerated to HandlerResult; conformance_main.cpp only
inspects dispatch()'s JSON and needed no change. TS side is untouched beyond
the version string -- no server Dispatcher is generated there.
P2 also handled: session.hello.version-mismatch's data.expected was a stale
"1.0.0"; now $any, with a note that the error-fixture compare is on `code`
only so a server echoing kProtocolVersion there is fine.
Version: minor, 1.3.0 -> 1.4.0. Wire is byte-identical (no schema, fixture,
or OpenRPC change) but every Dispatcher implementer must swap Result ->
HandlerResult on regen, and the bump is how lanes are told to. Not an ADR:
one lane consumes this binding, it's the one that asked, and the shape is
the one they proposed. Answered in contracts/proto-answers-daemon-m1.md.

Schemas for the whole v1 surface: 38 methods, 9 events, 25 named types and the
JSON-RPC envelope, with x-privileged / x-transports / x-deadlineMs / x-errors
annotations that both generators emit as data rather than prose.
Four generators over one IR (contracts/codegen/schema_ir.py), so the C++ structs,
the TypeScript types and the OpenRPC document cannot disagree about what the
contract says:
gen_cpp.py -> core/generated/velox_proto.{hpp,cpp}
gen_ts.py -> extension/src/shared/protocol/
gen_openrpc.py -> contracts/openrpc.json
gen_cpp_conformance.py -> tests/conformance/cpp/fixture_dispatcher.hpp
Inbound parsing never throws: parse<T>() returns std::expected<T, ParseError> and
nlohmann's throwing ADL from_json is deliberately not emitted. Schema constraints
(minimum, maxLength, pattern, ...) become real runtime checks in both languages —
the daemon does not trust the extension and the extension does not trust the
daemon.
59 golden fixtures: a success case per method, 12 error cases, 9 events. Replayed
by tests/conformance/ against both the generated C++ and a live server over both
transports. tools/mockd serves the same fixtures with unhappy-path flags so the
GUI and EXT lanes never wait for veloxd.
run.sh also proves capture.offer fails open: with a daemon answering slower than
750 ms the client gives up and lets Firefox take the download.
core/generated/ is libveloxproto, a separate target from libveloxcore, which
still never sees JSON — see docs/adr/0009.
