Executive Summary

This review provides a comprehensive MVP-readiness assessment of the Krill Platform with special focus on the peer-to-peer mesh networking architecture.

What Improved Since Last Report (Jan 5, 2026)

1. Demo Mode Architecture - DemoNodeManager now properly isolated via DI
2. StateFlow Documentation - Inline comments clarify distinctUntilChanged is inherent to StateFlow
3. Architecture Stability - No regressions detected; codebase remains well-structured
4. Traffic Control - Proper deduplication prevents echo loops in client updates

Biggest Current Risks

1. 🟡 MEDIUM - /trust endpoint requires beacon discovery first; no direct server registration
2. 🟡 MEDIUM - Session expiry cleanup (cleanupExpiredSessions) marked TODO for server-only
3. 🟢 LOW - iOS/Android/WASM CalculationProcessor implementations incomplete
4. 🟢 LOW - No explicit TTL eviction for stale peer sessions during beacon processing

Top 5 Priorities for Next Iteration

1. Implement session TTL cleanup - PeerSessionManager needs periodic cleanup
2. Unify beacon/trust entry flows - Both should converge to same internal pipeline
3. Add direct server registration - Allow /trust without prior beacon discovery
4. Complete platform CalculationProcessor - iOS/Android/WASM implementations
5. Add reconnection backoff - WebSocket reconnection should use exponential backoff

Overall Quality Score: 89/100 ⬆️ (+1 from January 5th)

Architecture Posture Summary

Concern	Status	Evidence
Circular dependencies	✅ NONE	Koin lazy injection prevents cycles
Platform leakage	✅ NONE	expect/actual pattern properly used
Layering violations	✅ NONE	Clear separation: server → sdk → shared
Singleton patterns	✅ CONTROLLED	All via Koin DI, not object declarations
Global state	✅ MINIMAL	SystemInfo + Containers (protected with Mutex)

What’s Stable:

• Module boundaries are well-defined
• DI injection patterns are consistent
• Platform-specific code properly isolated via expect/actual

What’s Drifting:

• Container pattern (multiple static containers) could be unified
• Some factory vs single inconsistency in DI module

B) Krill Mesh Networking Architecture (Critical Executive Section)

Mesh Architecture Snapshot

The Krill mesh networking enables peer-to-peer communication between servers and clients without central coordination:

Key Classes/Symbols by Stage:

Stage	Key Components	Purpose
Discovery	BeaconSender, BeaconProcessor, Multicast, NetworkDiscovery	UDP multicast beacon send/receive
Trust	ServerHandshakeProcess, CertificateCache, /trust endpoint	Certificate exchange and validation
Handshake	ServerHandshakeProcess.attemptConnection()	Download cert, validate, retry
Download	ServerHandshakeProcess.downloadAndSyncServerData()	GET /nodes API call
WebSockets	ClientSocketManager, ServerSocketManager	Real-time push updates
Merge	NodeManager.update()	Actor-based node state merge
UI Propagation	NodeObserver → KrillApp.emit() → StateFlow	Reactive UI updates

1) Actors and Identity

Apps vs Servers:

• Server: port > 0 in beacon, persists nodes to disk, processes owned nodes
• App (Client): port = 0 in beacon, observes all nodes, posts edits to server

Identity Keys:

Key	Source	Persistence	Purpose
installId	Platform-specific UUID	FileOperations	Stable device identity across restarts
sessionId	SessionManager.initSession()	Memory only	Detects restarts (new session = reconnect)
host	Hostname/IP	Runtime	Network location

2) Discovery

Beacon Lifecycle:

sequenceDiagram
    participant MS as Multicast Network<br/>239.255.0.69:45317
    participant BS as BeaconSender
    participant BP as BeaconProcessor
    participant PSM as PeerSessionManager
    
    Note over BS: Server/App startup
    BS->>MS: sendBeacon(NodeWire)
    Note over BS: Rate limited: 1 beacon/second
    
    MS->>BP: NodeWire received
    BP->>PSM: isKnownSession(wire)?
    
    alt Known Session (heartbeat)
        PSM-->>BP: true
        Note over BP: Ignore duplicate
    else Known Host, New Session (restart)
        PSM-->>BP: false, hasKnownHost=true
        BP->>BP: handleHostReconnection()
        BP->>PSM: add(wire)
    else New Host
        PSM-->>BP: false, hasKnownHost=false
        BP->>BP: handleNewHost()
        BP->>PSM: add(wire)
    end

Server vs App Beacon Distinction:

• wire.port > 0 → Server beacon → trigger trustServer()
• wire.port = 0 → Client beacon → respond with own beacon

Dedupe Strategy:

• Key: installId (stable host ID)
• Session check: knownSessions[wire.installId]?.sessionId == wire.sessionId
• TTL: 30 minutes (SESSION_EXPIRY_MS = 30 * 60 * 1000L)
• Gap: cleanupExpiredSessions() is marked TODO

3) Trust Bootstrap via /trust (Mandatory)

POST /trust Flow:

sequenceDiagram
    participant Client as Krill App
    participant Server as Krill Server A
    participant Peer as Krill Server B
    
    Note over Client: User enters API key for Server B
    Client->>Server: POST /trust<br/>ServerSettingsData(id, trustCert, apiKey)
    
    Server->>Server: nodeManager.nodeAvailable(id)?
    
    alt Peer NOT in NodeManager
        Server-->>Client: 404 "peer must be discovered via beacon first"
        Note over Server: Cannot register unknown peer
    else Peer exists (discovered via beacon)
        Server->>Server: serverSettings.write(settingsData)
        Server->>Server: Update peer meta with settings
        Server->>Server: nodeManager.update() with USER_EDIT
        Note over Server: Triggers ServerServerProcessor
        Server->>Peer: trustServer(wire) via handshake
        Server-->>Client: 200 OK
    end

Critical Observation: /trust requires prior beacon discovery. This is a design decision that:

• ✅ Prevents registration of nonexistent peers
• ❌ Doesn’t support manual server registration for cross-network scenarios

Recommendation: Add optional hostname/port to /trust payload for direct registration without beacon.

4) Connection Pipeline

Handshake Flow:

sequenceDiagram
    participant BP as BeaconProcessor
    participant SHP as ServerHandshakeProcess
    participant CC as CertificateCache
    participant HC as HttpClient
    participant CSM as ClientSocketManager
    participant NM as NodeManager
    
    BP->>SHP: trustServer(wire)
    SHP->>SHP: mutex.withLock (dedupe)
    SHP->>SHP: Cancel old session job if exists
    
    SHP->>CC: hasValidConnection(installId)?
    
    alt Cached valid connection
        SHP->>HC: GET /nodes
    else No cache or error
        SHP->>HC: GET /nodes (attempt)
        alt SSL/Cert error
            SHP->>HC: GET /trust (download cert)
            SHP->>SHP: rebuildHttpClient with cert
            SHP->>HC: Retry GET /nodes
        else Auth error
            SHP->>NM: setErrorState("Unauthorised")
        end
    end
    
    SHP->>CSM: start(wire)
    CSM->>CSM: Connect WebSocket
    SHP->>NM: complete() for each downloaded node
    SHP->>CC: markValid(installId)

ERROR State Usage:

• ConnectionResult.AUTH_ERROR → nodeManager.setErrorState() with message
• WebSocket failures → setErrorState() via onDisconnect()
• Guardrails: ServerServerProcessor.post() skips nodes in ERROR state (line 28)

5) Mesh Convergence & Steady-State

Healthy Mesh State:

• All servers have each other’s nodes via WebSocket push
• All clients have all server nodes for UI display
• NodeManager.nodes() contains nodes from all peers
• Each server only observes its own nodes (node.isMine())

Update Propagation:

graph LR
    A[Node Change] --> B[NodeManager.update]
    B --> C[StateFlow.update]
    C --> D[NodeObserver.collect]
    D --> E[type.emit processor]
    E --> F[NodeEventBus.broadcast]
    F --> G[WebSocket push]
    G --> H[Remote NodeManager.update]
    H --> I[Remote UI recomposition]

6) Beacon-Triggered vs /trust-Triggered Flow Divergence

Entry Point	Discovery	Trust Persist	Handshake Trigger	Convergence Point
Beacon	Automatic	Settings from prior /trust	serverHandshakeProcess.trustServer(wire)	trustServer()
/trust	Manual (requires beacon first)	Immediate persist	nodeManager.update() → ServerServerProcessor.post() → trustServer()	trustServer()

Convergence: Both paths eventually call serverHandshakeProcess.trustServer(wire), ensuring unified handshake logic.

Divergence Gap: Beacon creates node if missing; /trust rejects if node missing.

Recommended Fix (Minimal Churn):

// In Routes.kt POST /trust
if (!nm.nodeAvailable(settingsData.id)) {
    // Option: Create minimal peer node from settings
    val meta = ServerMetaData(name = settingsData.hostname, port = settingsData.port)
    val peer = NodeBuilder().id(settingsData.id).meta(meta).type(KrillApp.Server).create()
    nm.create(MutableStateFlow(peer))
}
// Then proceed with existing logic

---

C) NodeManager Update Pipeline (Critical)

Server NodeManager Actor Pattern

sequenceDiagram
    participant Caller as HTTP/WebSocket/Beacon
    participant NM as ServerNodeManager
    participant Chan as operationChannel<br/>Channel.UNLIMITED
    participant Actor as Actor Job
    participant Nodes as nodes Map
    participant Obs as NodeObserver
    participant File as FileOperations

    Caller->>NM: update(node)
    NM->>NM: Create NodeOperation.Update
    NM->>Chan: send(operation)
    NM->>NM: await completion
    
    Chan->>Actor: receive operation
    
    alt Client node from other server
        Actor->>Actor: return (skip)
    else Exact duplicate node
        Actor->>Actor: return (skip)
    else DELETING state
        Actor->>Actor: return (skip)
    end
    
    alt New node
        Actor->>Nodes: Create MutableStateFlow
        Actor->>Obs: observe() if isMine()
    else Existing node
        Actor->>Nodes: existing.update { node }
    end
    
    Actor->>Chan: operation.complete(Unit)

Multi-Server Coordination

Aspect	Mechanism	Location
Ownership	node.isMine() check	ServerNodeManager.kt:101, 148
File persistence	Only owner persists	ServerNodeManager.kt:184
Remote deletion	POST to owner server	ServerNodeManager.kt:187-191
Consistency	Actor serialization	ServerNodeManager.kt:29-61
WebSocket push	EventBus broadcast	NodeProcessExecutor.kt:157

Potential Issues

Dominant Pattern: Actor-based serialization for all mutations ✅

Outliers Identified:

1. verify() in updateInternal (ServerNodeManager.kt:156-158): Calls nodeManager.execute() inside verify, which could re-enter update flow. Currently safe due to different state (filter execution), but could be cleaner.

2. Recursive delete (ServerNodeManager.kt:197-204): Launches scope.launch { delete(n) } for each child. Multiple concurrent deletes for large subtrees. Consider sequential processing.

---

D) StateFlow / SharedFlow / Compose Collection Safety (Critical)

Current Patterns Analysis

Location	Pattern	Status	Notes
ClientScreen.kt:90-94	debounce(16).stateIn()	✅ EXCELLENT	60fps protection
ClientScreen.kt:538	readNodeState().collectAsState()	✅ GOOD	Direct StateFlow subscription
ClientScreen.kt:480	readNodeState().collectAsState()	✅ GOOD	For removing nodes
NodeObserver.kt:44-46	subscriptionCount check	✅ EXCELLENT	Multiple observer detection
ExpandServer.kt:38	collectAsState()	✅ GOOD	selectedNode collection

StateFlow Documentation (Inline)

The codebase now includes excellent inline documentation (ClientScreen.kt:113-115):

// ⚠️ PERFORMANCE NOTE: distinct Applying 'distinctUntilChanged' to StateFlow 
// has no effect. See the StateFlow documentation on Operator Fusion.

This is correct - StateFlow inherently provides distinctUntilChanged semantics.

Recommendations

1. Already implemented: Debounce on swarm updates (16ms)
2. Already documented: StateFlow distinctUntilChanged behavior
3. Consider: Add conflate() to high-frequency snapshot updates if needed

Scope Risk Table

Component	Scope Source	Risk Level	Mitigation
ServerNodeManager	DI injected	✅ LOW	shutdown() closes channel
NodeObserver	DI injected	✅ LOW	close() cancels jobs
NodeEventBus	DI injected	✅ LOW	clear() cleans subscribers
ServerHandshakeProcess	Factory	✅ LOW	Mutex + job cleanup in finally
ClientSocketManager	Factory	✅ LOW	Job cleanup on disconnect
BeaconSender	DI injected	✅ LOW	Rate limited, no long-running

GlobalScope Usage

✅ NONE DETECTED - All scopes are properly injected via Koin DI.

---

G) Beacon Send/Receive & Multi-Server Behavior (Critical)

Race Condition Scenarios

Scenario	Current Handling	Risk
Multiple servers advertise simultaneously	PeerSessionManager dedupes by installId	✅ LOW
Client discovers multiple servers quickly	Each triggers separate handshake	✅ LOW
Servers discover each other in loops	Session-based dedupe prevents re-handshake	✅ LOW
Stale entries without TTL	30-min TTL defined but cleanup TODO	🟡 MEDIUM

Dedupe Strategy

// PeerSessionManager.kt:25-29
suspend fun isKnownSession(wire: NodeWire): Boolean {
    return mutex.withLock {
        knownSessions[wire.installId]?.sessionId == wire.sessionId
    }
}

Key: installId (stable) + sessionId (changes on restart)

Recommendations (Minimal Churn)

1. Implement TTL cleanup:

   // Add to ServerBoss tasks
   scope.launch {
    while (isActive) {
        delay(5.minutes)
        peerSessionManager.cleanupExpiredSessions()
    }
   }
   

2. Consider heartbeat interval: Current beacon rate is 1/second during discovery. Consider reducing after initial handshake.

Agent-Ready Task List (Mandatory)

Priority 1: Implement Session TTL Cleanup

Agent Prompt:

Implement periodic session cleanup in PeerSessionManager for server-only execution.

Touch points:
- krill-sdk/src/commonMain/kotlin/krill/zone/krillapp/client/PeerSessionManager.kt
- server/src/main/kotlin/krill/zone/server/Lifecycle.kt

Steps:
1. In PeerSessionManager, remove the TODO comment from cleanupExpiredSessions()
2. In ServerLifecycleManager.onReady(), add a coroutine that periodically calls 
   peerSessionManager.cleanupExpiredSessions() every 5 minutes
3. Inject PeerSessionManager into ServerLifecycleManager

Acceptance criteria:
1. Sessions older than 30 minutes are removed on server
2. Cleanup runs every 5 minutes
3. No memory leaks from accumulated sessions
4. Verify with logging that cleanup executes

Priority 2: Add Direct Server Registration to /trust

Agent Prompt:

Allow /trust endpoint to register unknown peers by including optional 
hostname and port in the request.

Touch points:
- krill-sdk/src/commonMain/kotlin/krill/zone/io/ServerSettingsData.kt
- server/src/main/kotlin/krill/zone/server/Routes.kt

Steps:
1. Add optional `hostname: String?` and `port: Int?` fields to ServerSettingsData
2. In POST /trust handler, if peer not found AND hostname/port provided:
   - Create a new server node with ServerMetaData(name=hostname, port=port)
   - Call nodeManager.create(peer)
   - Then proceed with existing settings persistence
3. If peer not found AND hostname/port NOT provided, return 404 as before

Acceptance criteria:
1. Existing beacon-first flow still works unchanged
2. New direct registration works with hostname+port
3. Settings are persisted before handshake
4. Error response if incomplete data provided

Priority 3: WebSocket Reconnect with Exponential Backoff

Agent Prompt:

Add exponential backoff to WebSocket reconnection in ClientSocketManager.

Touch points:
- krill-sdk/src/commonMain/kotlin/krill/zone/krillapp/client/ClientSocketManager.kt

Steps:
1. Add private val reconnectDelays = listOf(1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 30) // seconds
2. Track retry count per peer in activeConnections value or separate map
3. In connectWebSocket catch block, before cleaning up:
   - Calculate backoff delay based on retry count
   - Log the delay
   - delay() before allowing reconnection
4. Reset retry count on successful connection

Acceptance criteria:
1. First retry happens after 1 second
2. Delays increase: 1s, 2s, 4s, 8s, 16s, 30s max
3. Successful connection resets delay to 1s
4. Backoff prevents rapid reconnect storms

Priority 4: iOS CalculationProcessor Implementation

Agent Prompt:

Implement CalculationProcessor for iOS platform using pure Kotlin math parsing.

Touch points:
- krill-sdk/src/iosMain/kotlin/krill/zone/krillapp/executor/calculation/

Steps:
1. Find or create CalculationProcessor.ios.kt
2. Implement using the same parser pattern as JVM version
3. Support basic arithmetic (+, -, *, /)
4. Support parentheses for grouping
5. Support common math functions (sin, cos, sqrt, abs)

Acceptance criteria:
1. Basic expressions evaluate correctly
2. Error handling returns empty string on failure
3. Matches JVM CalculationProcessor behavior
