## Quick Start

```rust
use p2p_foundation::{P2PNode, NodeConfig};
use p2p_foundation::mcp::{Tool, FunctionToolHandler};
use serde_json::json;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> anyhow::Result<()> {
    // Create a P2P node with MCP server
    let node = P2PNode::builder()
        .listen_on("/ip6/::/tcp/9000")
        .with_mcp_server()
        .build()
        .await?;
    
    // Register an MCP tool
    let echo_tool = Tool::new(
        "echo",
        "Echo service that returns input",
        json!({
            "type": "object",
            "properties": {
                "message": {"type": "string"}
            },
            "required": ["message"]
        })
    ).handler(FunctionToolHandler::new(|args| async move {
        Ok(json!({"echo": args["message"]}))
    })).build()?;
    
    node.register_mcp_tool(echo_tool).await?;
    
    // Start the node
    node.start().await?;
    
    // Connect to peers and discover services
    let peer_id = node.connect_peer("/ip6/2001:db8::1/tcp/9000").await?;
    let remote_tools = node.list_remote_mcp_tools(&peer_id).await?;
    
    // Call remote tools
    let result = node.call_remote_mcp_tool(
        &peer_id, 
        "calculator", 
        json!({"a": 5, "b": 3, "operation": "add"})
    ).await?;
    
    println!("Result: {}", result);
    
    Ok(())
}
```

```

### Key Components

- **MCP Layer**: Model Context Protocol servers at each node for AI tool integration
- **Security Layer**: JWT authentication, capability-based permissions, audit logging
- **S/Kademlia DHT**: Secure variant with disjoint path routing and IP diversity enforcement
- **Tunneling**: Intelligent protocol selection based on network capabilities
- **Transport**: QUIC-first with automatic fallback and 0-RTT connections

## IPv6/IPv4 Tunneling Protocols

### ✅ Fully Implemented
- **6to4** (RFC 3056) - Automatic tunneling for public IPv4 addresses
- **Teredo** (RFC 4380) - NAT traversal with UDP encapsulation  
- **6in4** (RFC 4213) - Static tunneling with explicit endpoints
- **DS-Lite** (RFC 6333) - ISP-provided dual-stack lite tunneling
- **ISATAP** (RFC 5214) - Enterprise network tunneling with router discovery
- **MAP-E/MAP-T** (RFC 7597/7599) - Modern ISP transition mechanisms with deterministic mapping
- **Intelligent Auto-Selection** - Network capability-based protocol selection
- **Performance Monitoring** - Real-time tunnel health and metrics

## Three-Word Address System 🌟

Revolutionary user experience that transforms complex multiaddrs into memorable phrases:

```bash
# Traditional way (hard to share)
/ip6/2001:db8:85a3::8a2e:370:7334/udp/9001/quic

# Three-word way (easy to remember and share)
global.fast.eagle
```

### Benefits
- **Human-friendly**: `forest.lightning.compass` vs `/ip6/::/udp/9000/quic`
- **Voice-friendly**: Easy to share over phone or voice chat
- **Error-resistant**: Much less prone to typos than long addresses
- **Viral growth**: Users naturally share memorable addresses

### Usage

```bash
# Bootstrap with three-word addresses
cargo run --example chat -- --bootstrap-words 'global.fast.eagle'

# Traditional bootstrap still works
cargo run --example chat -- --bootstrap '/ip6/::1/tcp/9000'
```

```rust
use p2p_foundation::bootstrap::{WordEncoder, ThreeWordAddress};

let encoder = WordEncoder::new();
let multiaddr = "/ip6/2001:db8::1/udp/9000/quic".parse()?;
let words = encoder.encode_multiaddr(&multiaddr)?;
println!("Share: {}", words); // "outer.sharp.eagle"
```

### Flutter App Integration
The Ant Connect app showcases the complete three-word experience:
- Three-word input fields instead of complex multiaddr entry
- QR code generation with three-word addresses  
- Prominent sharing of your own memorable address

## Model Context Protocol (MCP) Integration

### ✅ Complete Implementation
- **Tool Registration**: Register and discover AI tools across the network
- **Remote Execution**: Execute tools on remote peers with full security
- **Service Discovery**: DHT-based service advertisement and lookup
- **Authentication**: JWT-based auth with configurable permissions
- **Security Levels**: Public, Basic, Strong, and Admin access controls
- **Rate Limiting**: Configurable request throttling per peer
- **Audit Logging**: Comprehensive security event tracking
- **Message Routing**: P2P message routing with TTL and reliability
