phantom-protocol 0.1.0

Phantom Universal Transport Core SDK — post-quantum secure L4/L6 network framework
Documentation
//! The `SessionTransport` byte-pipe abstraction — the boundary between
//! `PhantomSession`'s background data pump and a concrete physical transport
//! (`TcpSessionTransport`, `WebSocketLeg`, `EmbeddedLeg`, ...).
//!
//! Defined with **native async fn in trait** (AFIT, stable since Rust 1.75)
//! rather than the `#[async_trait]` macro: method calls do not allocate a
//! boxed future, and `Send`-ness of the returned futures is checked at the
//! *use* site (the concrete impl type), not at the trait-impl site. The
//! latter is what allows `EmbeddedLeg<R, W, ...>` to compose with
//! `embedded-io-async`, whose async-fn-in-trait futures are not `Send`-
//! bounded — `#[async_trait]` here would have failed to prove `Send`-ness
//! at the generic impl site.
//!
//! Dependency-light (only `bytes` + `CoreError`) so it can compile in a
//! future `no_std + alloc` build ahead of the rest of the crate.
//! Re-exported from [`crate::api::session`] so the historical import path
//! stays stable.
//!
//! Phase 3.6 (no-std foundation): module compiles without `std` because the
//! implementation uses only `core::future::Future` and pulls nothing from
//! `std::*`. The crate-level `#![cfg_attr(not(feature = "std"), no_std)]` in
//! `lib.rs` drives the no_std switch; this module needs no extra attribute.
