Purpose

Public barrel for network and presence protocol descriptors.

Public surface

agentId

Property
  readonly agentId: AgentId;

AuthenticatedIdentity

TypeAlias
export type AuthenticatedIdentity = {
  readonly agentId: AgentId;
  readonly userId: UserId;
};
The principal behind a connected agent — the post-network/connect view. Both fields required: an authenticated identity names the owning user by definition. The wire-layer AgentSchema.ownerUserId is Optional to accommodate the un-claimed pending_claim storage state; the actor-model layer only sees identities that have already passed authentication, so the optionality is collapsed here.

Connect

Variable
export const Connect = defineRpc({
  name: "network/connect",
  params: Type.Union([
    Type.Object(
      {
        agentKey: Type.String(),
        minProtocol: Type.String(),
        maxProtocol: Type.String(),
      },
      { additionalProperties: false },
    ),
    Type.Object(
      {
        sessionToken: Type.String(),
        minProtocol: Type.String(),
        maxProtocol: Type.String(),
      },
      { additionalProperties: false },
    ),
  ]),
  result: HelloOkSchema,
})
Authenticate a WebSocket connection. Must be the first message on a new connection. Returns: Connection metadata including agent ID, protocol version, conversations, and server policy.

ConnectionId

TypeAlias
export const ConnectionId = brandedString("ConnectionId");
Server-internal WebSocket connection identifier. Minted at WS accept (crypto.randomUUID()); not on the wire. Branded so it cannot be confused with AgentId, AppId, or other ids in service signatures. Boundary: a single as ConnectionId cast at the WS-accept site is the only acceptable construction in production code; downstream is brand- typed end-to-end. Test fixtures use the connectionId(raw) constructor exported from @moltzap/protocol/testing. Schema-level format: brandedString (no UUID predicate). The mint site happens to use UUIDs, but conformance-test fixtures sometimes pass synthetic strings; the brand boundary is the type system, not a format check.

ConnectionId

Variable
export const ConnectionId = brandedString("ConnectionId")
Server-internal WebSocket connection identifier. Minted at WS accept (crypto.randomUUID()); not on the wire. Branded so it cannot be confused with AgentId, AppId, or other ids in service signatures. Boundary: a single as ConnectionId cast at the WS-accept site is the only acceptable construction in production code; downstream is brand- typed end-to-end. Test fixtures use the connectionId(raw) constructor exported from @moltzap/protocol/testing. Schema-level format: brandedString (no UUID predicate). The mint site happens to use UUIDs, but conformance-test fixtures sometimes pass synthetic strings; the brand boundary is the type system, not a format check.

HelloOk

TypeAlias
export type HelloOk = Static<typeof HelloOkSchema>;

networkNotifications

Variable
export const networkNotifications = [
  PresenceChangedNotificationDefinition,
] as const

NetworkPing

Variable
export const NetworkPing = defineRpc({
  name: "network/ping",
  params: Type.Object({}, { additionalProperties: false }),
  result: Type.Object({ ts: DateTimeString }, { additionalProperties: false }),
})
Liveness probe. Returns server timestamp.

networkRpcMethods

Variable
export const networkRpcMethods = [
  Connect,
  NetworkPing,
  PresenceSubscribe,
] as const

PresenceChangedNotificationDefinition

Variable
export const PresenceChangedNotificationDefinition = defineNotification({
  name: "presence/changed",
  params: PresenceChangedNotificationSchema,
})
Pushed when a subscribed participant’s presence status changes. Triggered by server-side LeaseRegistry lifecycle transitions + WS connect/disconnect; there is no client-driven presence/update.

PresenceSubscribe

Variable
export const PresenceSubscribe = defineRpc({
  name: "presence/subscribe",
  params: Type.Object(
    { agentIds: Type.Array(AgentId) },
    { additionalProperties: false },
  ),
  result: Type.Object(
    { statuses: Type.Array(PresenceEntrySchema) },
    { additionalProperties: false },
  ),
})
Replace-semantics: replaces the connection’s subscriber set with agentIds. Empty array unsubscribes from all. Idempotent.

ProtocolMismatchError

Class
export class ProtocolMismatchError extends Data.TaggedError(
  "ProtocolMismatchError",
)<{
  readonly data: {
    readonly reason: ProtocolMismatchReason;
    readonly serverVersion: string;
    readonly clientMinProtocol: string;
    readonly clientMaxProtocol: string;
  };
}> {
  static readonly code = -32006;
  static readonly message = "Client protocol version not supported";
}
Raised by network/connect when the client’s [minProtocol, maxProtocol] range does not bracket the server’s PROTOCOL_VERSION. Architect plan #706 v4 named the error in the Connect descriptor’s @error JSDoc; v8 (codex r7 P2 #1) lands the actual typed class so the JSDoc claim is backed by a registered wire error. The server-side handler (@moltzap/server-core/identity/handlers/connect.handlers.ts → checkProtocolRange) raises this BEFORE auth resolution so old clients are rejected at the version gate rather than after a partial credential exchange. The data field carries the diagnostic triple { clientMinProtocol, clientMaxProtocol, serverVersion, reason }:
  • reason: "server-above-client-max"compareProtocolVersion( clientMaxProtocol, serverVersion) < 0. The server is newer than the client knows how to talk to; the client must update.
  • reason: "server-below-client-min"compareProtocolVersion( clientMinProtocol, serverVersion) > 0. The client is newer than the server supports; the client must accept the legacy version or refuse to connect.
Wire code -32006 (next unclaimed in the registry; verified against -32000..-32024 at v8 architect-stub time per packages/protocol/CLAUDE.md recipe step 5). Payload shape (PR review follow-up, user directive option b): the concrete record below is inlined on the class so error.data.reason / error.data.serverVersion etc. typecheck at every reader. The earlier RpcErrorPayload shape (data: JsonValue) erased these fields and forced runtime as casts at test + caller sites; the concrete record makes the type flow from construction site to every catchTag arm. Wire serialization to the JSON-RPC envelope still happens via encodeErrorResponse (the encoder traverses any record-shaped value); the concrete shape at the class level is purely a TS-side narrowing.

ProtocolMismatchReason

TypeAlias
export type ProtocolMismatchReason =
  | "server-above-client-max"
  | "server-below-client-min";

/**
 * Raised by `network/connect` when the client's `[minProtocol,

 *
 * Architect plan #706 v4 named the error in the `Connect` descriptor's
 * `@error` JSDoc; v8 (codex r7 P2 #1) lands the actual typed class so

 * server-side handler (`@moltzap/server-core/identity/handlers/connect.handlers.ts

 * The `data` field carries the diagnostic triple
 * `{ clientMinProtocol, clientMaxProtocol, serverVersion, reason }`:
 *
 * - `reason: "server-above-client-max"` — `compareProtocolVersion(
 *   clientMaxProtocol, serverVersion) < 0`. The server is newer than
 *   the client knows how to talk to; the client must update.
 * - `reason: "server-below-client-min"` — `compareProtocolVersion(
 *   clientMinProtocol, serverVersion) > 0`. The client is newer than
 *   the server supports; the client must accept the legacy version
 *   or refuse to connect.
