+# Live session-list updates
+
+Tracking: #26
+
+Live updates are an optional acceleration for an open server browser. The
+bounded `GET /v1/sessions` snapshot remains the source of truth, and join
+authorization still revalidates current capacity, presence, policy, and
+compatibility. A displayed player count is advisory, never an admission promise.
+
+## Snapshot, stream, reset
+
+Every `BrowseSessionsResponse` includes `streamCursor` in addition to its normal
+pagination cursor. Connect to `GET /v1/sessions/stream` with the same game,
+environment, protocol, optional region, and `excludeFull` filter. Send the most
+recent stream cursor as `Last-Event-ID`.
+
+| SSE event | Contract kind | UI action |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `session_upsert` | `sessionUpsert` | Add or replace the complete public projection by listing ID. |
+| `session_remove` | `sessionRemove` | Remove the listing ID. |
+| `reset` | `reset` | Discard local state, fetch a fresh snapshot, then reconnect with its cursor. |
+| `keepalive` | `keepalive` | Preserve the cursor and connection; do not change UI state. |
+
+Each SSE `id` equals the opaque cursor inside its JSON event. Cursors are signed,
+short-lived, monotonically ordered, and bound to the complete filter. A missing,
+expired, corrupted, foreign, future, or replay-gapped cursor produces `reset`
+instead of a potentially incomplete view. Do not parse or retain it as a stable
+identifier.
+
+Updates cover creation after fresh UDP presence, public-field/capacity changes,
+presence staleness and recovery, lease expiry, deregistration, operator or
+principal revocation, and visibility/region/protocol changes. Events contain the
+same bounded public `SessionListing` as snapshots. They never contain raw peer
+endpoints, lease tokens, punch capabilities, tickets, publisher subjects, or
+internal store identifiers.
+
+## SDK and polling fallback
+
+```csharp
+BrowseSessionsRequest filter = new()
+{
+    GameId = new("space-game"),
+    EnvironmentId = new("production"),
+    ProtocolVersion = 7,
+    RegionId = new("eu-central"),
+    ExcludeFull = true,
+};
+RendezvousClientResult<BrowseSessionsResponse> snapshot =
+    await browser.BrowseAsync(filter, cancellationToken);
+
+await foreach (RendezvousClientResult<SessionStreamEvent> update in
+    browser.StreamAsync(filter, snapshot.Value!.StreamCursor, cancellationToken))
+{
+    if (!update.IsSuccess)
+    {
+        // Switch to bounded polling with jittered backoff.
+        break;
+    }
+    // Apply upsert/remove by listing ID. On reset, discard and browse again.
+}
+```
+
+Cancellation or enumerator disposal closes the response and releases the server
+subscription. A normal connection-duration close is a reconnect signal: use the
+last applied event cursor. Repeated failures, unsupported platform HTTP stacks,
+and restrictive proxies fall back to snapshots with exponential jittered
+backoff, a capped interval, and `Retry-After`. Never open parallel streams to
+compensate for a slow UI.
+
+## TestClient
+
+```bash
+dotnet run --project src/FinalFactory.Rendezvous.TestClient \
+  --configuration Release --no-build -- \
+  watch --service https://rendezvous.example.invalid/ \
+  --game space-game --environment production --region eu-central --protocol 7 \
+  --run-seconds 60 --json
+```
+
+`watch.snapshot`, `watch.session-upsert`, `watch.session-remove`,
+`watch.keepalive`, and `watch.reconnect` are stable diagnostics. Add
+`--exercise-reset --script` to corrupt the snapshot cursor deliberately and
+verify a typed reset plus snapshot refresh. Use `--exercise-reconnect --script`
+while producing one update to close the first stream deliberately, reconnect
+from its prior cursor, and verify that the same ordered event is replayed.
+Polished list diffing, selection retention, animation, and accessibility remain
+in each game.
+
+## Bounds and slow consumers
+
+The v1 journal retains at most 4,096 public-only changes. It admits at most 256
+subscribers total and 64 per tenant, reads at most 128 changes per batch,
+waits a configurable 50 milliseconds after a live change and coalesces the
+resulting batch to the final change per listing, sends a keepalive every 15
+seconds, and closes a connection after five minutes. A consumer behind the
+replay window receives `reset`; it never acquires an unbounded queue.
+
+Normal optional-work concurrency and per-source/tenant rate controls apply for
+the stream lifetime. Exhaustion returns typed HTTP `429` before streaming.
+Shutdown cancels streams; reconnect only after readiness returns and expect a
+reset after a single-active restart because listings and replay are ephemeral.
+
+## Reverse proxy
+
+- Disable response buffering (`X-Accel-Buffering: no` is also emitted),
+  compression, transformation, and caching for `text/event-stream`.
+- Preserve `Last-Event-ID`; set upstream/read timeouts above the 15-second
+  keepalive and around six minutes for the five-minute connection ceiling.
+- Flush events promptly and use HTTP/2 only when streaming semantics survive.
+- Preserve the source-IP trust boundary and abuse controls; do not add a bypass.
+
+Verify the deployed proxy with an idle keepalive, update, reconnect, invalid
+cursor reset, slow reader, and graceful shutdown. An in-process pass does not
+prove that a production proxy is non-buffering.

+# Production-readiness decision and real-network canary
+
+Tracking: #23
+
+Rendezvous v1 is **not production-ready** until every required gate in
+[`production-readiness-v1.json`](../evidence/production-readiness-v1.json) is
+recorded as `pass`. The machine-checkable decision is intentionally fail-closed:
+
+```bash
+./scripts/check-production-readiness.sh
+```
+
+Exit `0` means every required gate is present and passing, exit `3` means the
+record is valid but at least one gate is pending or failed, and exit `2` means
+the record itself is malformed or contains identifier-, endpoint-, account-, or
+credential-shaped data. Editing only the top-level decision cannot make the
+check pass.
+
+The checked-in record is an index, not a log archive. It contains one
+repository-relative evidence reference and a short categorical note per gate.
+Raw packet captures, client event streams, publisher credentials, public or
+private network endpoints, listing IDs, and player/account identifiers must not
+be committed.
+
+## Required decision matrix
+
+The local matrix covers immutable artifacts, Debug and Release verification,
+both real game consumers, the candidate capacity/resilience profile,
+production-process recovery, and the combined security/privacy/observability
+gate. These may be reproduced by the project team on a clean candidate commit.
+
+The external matrix remains distinct because a local namespace, loopback,
+container bridge, or second process on one machine cannot prove it:
+
+| Gate | Required evidence |
+| --- | --- |
+| Public package empty-cache restore | A clean machine restores the exact Client and Contracts version using only the documented public sources. |
+| Signed publication | The immutable tag publishes packages, image digest, SBOMs, provenance, checksums, and verifiable signatures through the protected release workflow. |
+| Source-preserving UDP ingress | Packet capture on the service host proves the mediator observes each peer's real source tuple and replies from the advertised public tuple; no UDP proxy rewrites either direction. |
+| Same-LAN direct canary | Two independently operated game clients establish authenticated direct LiteNetLib traffic. |
+| Home-NAT direct canary | Host and joiner on distinct residential networks establish authenticated direct LiteNetLib traffic. |
+| Restrictive/CGNAT and blocked-UDP canaries | Each bounded join exits `12`, records a typed terminal category, and exposes the game-owned fallback policy without hanging or claiming success. |
+| IPv6 direct canary | Two external IPv6 clients record authenticated direct traffic and an observed `ipv6` peer address family. |
+| Public rate-shaped capacity | The documented HTTP/UDP workload mix meets its objectives through TLS, Kestrel, JSON, LiteNetLib, kernel sockets, and public ingress. |
+| One-hour endurance | The immutable production-shaped candidate completes the one-hour profile without a state, handle, memory, readiness, or latency failure. |
+| Alert delivery | A real alert sink receives both trigger and recovery notifications for the rehearsed outage. |
+| Cold-standby rollback | Drain, stop, socket release, replacement start, host re-registration, and rollback meet the process and host-visible recovery objectives. |
+| Documentation-only exercise | An operator who did not author the runbooks completes key rotation/revocation, outage, restart, re-registration, and rollback using only the checked-in documentation. |
+
+Failure or missing evidence is blocking. It is never converted into an accepted
+risk by changing the wording of the readiness note.
+
+When an external gate passes, add a redacted repository JSON attestation and
+point that gate's `evidenceRef` to it. The checker requires this exact shape and
+binds the gate to the evaluated candidate commit. `artifactDigest` is the SHA-256
+of the protected evidence bundle or public release record, not a peer endpoint,
+listing identifier, account identifier, or credential:
+
+```json
+{
+  "schemaVersion": 1,
+  "kind": "rendezvous-external-gate-attestation",
+  "gateId": "replace-with-the-exact-gate-id",
+  "candidateCommit": "replace-with-the-40-character-candidate-commit",
+  "result": "pass",
+  "performedAtUtc": "2026-01-01T00:00:00Z",
+  "artifactDigest": "replace-with-the-64-character-sha256",
+  "evidenceLocation": "protected-operations-record",
+  "reviewerRole": "independent-operator"
+}
+```
+
+Allowed evidence locations are `protected-operations-record` and
+`public-release-record`. Allowed reviewer roles are `release-operator`,
+`network-operator`, `security-operator`, and `independent-operator`. The checker
+rejects a missing file, wrong gate, wrong candidate, malformed digest, naive
+timestamp, extra fields, or sensitive-data-shaped contents.
+
+## Prepare one immutable canary build
+
+Use the exact release candidate on every canary machine. Verify a clean checkout,
+restore in locked mode, and build the TestClient before changing networks:
+
+```bash
+test -z "$(git status --porcelain)"
+dotnet restore Rendezvous.slnx --locked-mode
+dotnet build Rendezvous.slnx --configuration Release --no-restore
+```
+
+Keep shell tracing disabled. The host receives a short-lived, least-scope
+publisher credential through `RENDEZVOUS_PUBLISHER_CREDENTIAL`; it must never be
+put in an argument, coordination file, evidence file, command transcript, or
+support message. Set the public HTTPS service URL and advertised UDP mediator
+tuple separately. TestClient rejects credentials embedded in the service URL.
+
+## Run a success canary across two machines
+
+On the host machine, choose `same-lan`, `home-nat`, or `ipv6-direct`. The
+coordination file is mode `0600` and contains only the temporary listing UUID.
+It is not evidence; transfer it through an approved private channel, then delete
+both copies.
+
+```bash
+set +x
+export RENDEZVOUS_PUBLISHER_CREDENTIAL='supplied-by-the-approved-secret-boundary'
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_ROLE=host
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_TOPOLOGY=home-nat
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_ADDRESS_FAMILY=ipv4
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_HTTP_URL='https://service.example.invalid/'
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_UDP_ENDPOINT='203.0.113.10:9050'
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_COORDINATION_FILE="$HOME/.local/state/rendezvous-canary-listing"
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_OUTPUT="$PWD/artifacts/canary/home-nat-host.json"
+./scripts/run-real-network-canary.sh
+```
+
+The host prints only that it is ready and waits for the authenticated exchange.
+On the joiner, read the securely transferred UUID without placing it in shell
+history and run the matching topology:
+
+```bash
+set +x
+read -r RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_LISTING_ID < "$HOME/.local/state/rendezvous-canary-listing"
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_LISTING_ID
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_ROLE=client-success
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_TOPOLOGY=home-nat
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_ADDRESS_FAMILY=ipv4
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_HTTP_URL='https://service.example.invalid/'
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_UDP_ENDPOINT='203.0.113.10:9050'
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_OUTPUT="$PWD/artifacts/canary/home-nat-client.json"
+./scripts/run-real-network-canary.sh
+unset RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_LISTING_ID
+```
+
+The host summary requires authenticated direct traffic and deregistration. The
+client summary requires connection, authenticated direct traffic, accepted
+outcome reporting, and the declared address family observed on the actual peer.
+The summaries deliberately contain no network tuple or listing identifier.
+
+For IPv6, set the topology to `ipv6-direct`, the family to `ipv6`, and use the
+deployment's bracketed IPv6 mediator form. Record unsupported operating systems,
+console platforms, VPNs, and address families as untested; an IPv4 pass is not
+evidence for IPv6 or a platform network policy.
+
+## Run a bounded failure canary
+
+Start the host from an independently reachable network as above. On the joiner,
+apply the reviewed firewall rule that blocks the relevant UDP path, or use the
+known restrictive carrier network, then set `client-expected-failure` and the
+matching topology:
+
+```bash
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_ROLE=client-expected-failure
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_TOPOLOGY=firewall-blocked-udp
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_ADDRESS_FAMILY=ipv4
+export RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_OUTPUT="$PWD/artifacts/canary/firewall-blocked-client.json"
+./scripts/run-real-network-canary.sh
+```
+
+This role passes only when TestClient exits exactly `12`, emits a non-empty typed
+authorization/traversal outcome, and emits the authoritative fallback category.
+A timeout without the typed terminal outcome, exit `0`, direct-traffic success,
+or an unbounded process is a failed canary. Restore the firewall after the drill
+and verify normal traffic again.
+
+## Private diagnostics and retention
+
+The harness creates raw JSON events under a randomly named `0700`-equivalent
+temporary directory with a process `umask` of `077`. Successful raw events are
+deleted automatically. On failure they remain in that private directory so the
+operator can triage locally; do not attach them to an issue before removing
+listing IDs and reviewing every field. Set `RENDEZVOUS_CANARY_KEEP_RAW=true`
+only for an approved short-lived diagnostic capture, then delete it manually.
+
+The sanitized summary contains the commit, clean/dirty tree state, UTC time,
+role, declared topology, observed address-family gate, aggregate booleans, and
+the retention policy. Formal evidence requires the default clean-tree check.
+
+## Public ingress proof
+
+Success through a public hostname is insufficient proof that UDP source/reply
+addressing is preserved. During a canary, an authorized operator must capture
+only packet headers at the service host and verify:
+
+1. each authenticated contribution reaches the mediator with the external peer
+   source tuple visible to the server;
+2. introductions are sent from the same advertised public mediator tuple;
+3. no load balancer, user-space proxy, service mesh, or destination NAT changes
+   the source or reply tuple expected by LiteNetLib; and
+4. malformed or unauthenticated traffic receives no amplified response.
+
+Store the approval, capture time window, candidate digest, topology category,
+and pass/fail result. Do not retain packet payloads or peer tuples in the
+repository. A failed tuple check blocks release even if one canary happened to
+connect.
+
+## Rehearsal and triage
+
+Run the security, capacity, observability, deployment, rollback, privacy, and
+incident procedures against the same immutable candidate. The independent
+operator records which runbook revision they followed, start/end time, observed
+alerts, recovery time, unexpected decisions, and pass/fail result. Update the
+documentation and repeat any failed or ambiguous step.
+
+Before changing the readiness record, reconcile every open roadmap issue as one
+of: `blocking` with an owner and evidence needed, `accepted-v1` with a bounded
+documented limitation, or `post-v1` with a filed issue. HA, active-active or
+multi-region routing, relays, platform authentication, and scale above the
+single-active v1 envelope are not silently accepted; each needs a traceable
+post-v1 issue. The current follow-ups are relay decision [#24], HA/multi-region
+shared state and routing [#28], scale beyond the measured envelope [#29], and
+platform authentication adapters [#30]. Run the checker after every evidence
+update. Only its `READY` result may support a production-ready claim.
