TCP Transport

transport: tcp — length-prefixed frames over tokio::net::TcpStream; uses seq/ack for exactly-once delivery into the server’s queue; reconnects with exponential backoff.

address syntax: tcp:HOST:PORT (supports IPv4/IPv6)

framing:

• 8-byte big-endian length prefix

• followed by exactly that many payload bytes

dial / serve:

• tcp::dial::<M>(addr: SocketAddr) -> NetTx<M>

• tcp::serve::<M>(addr: SocketAddr).await -> (ChannelAddr, NetRx<M>)

notes:

• Disables Nagle’s algorithm (set_nodelay(true)) to reduce latency for small messages.

• Shares common framing/ack semantics with Unix and MetaTLS.
