quest: plan browser route-key proofs verified at the relay - #8037
Why it matters: a tab proves a route key whenever its WebTransport has exportKeyingMaterial, and the relay ends a session whose proof does not verify. So a browser whose exporter disagrees with the relay's draft-ietf-webtrans-http3 derivation cannot open a lite-07 session at all, and no real browser exporter has ever run against the relay. Firefox 155-159 implement an older draft, Firefox 160 (stable Nov 10) the spec, and Chromium is in Canary targeting 158.
Decisions (maintainer, 2026-11-06)
Goal?
✅ Yes, as stated: Firefox and Chromium, a mismatch blocks the cut
Firefox only until Chrome 158 ships
Drop it
How the check runs?
✅ A nightly Playwright lane in the interop suite (nightly and the release gate)
A one-time manual check before the cut
Firefox 155-159, if their older-draft export differs?
✅ Detect at setup and send no proof (the tab connects unproven)
Require Firefox 160+
Ignore 155-159
Playwright 1.64.1 bundles Chromium 156 and Firefox 157, so neither tab proves (Pullfrog)?
✅ Bump Playwright; the cut waits for it (playwright-pin.md, waiting on nixpkgs and on a release that bundles Firefox 160)
Run installed Chrome and Firefox channels
Keep the lane informational, so the cut doesn't wait
Review
Head d1c8f6d: review exempt, a conflict-free merge of origin/main (GitHub had reported the branch as conflicting).
Codex gpt-6.1-sol (medium), fresh round 1 on head 116643f: no findings. This head answers the online reviews of 7be024a:
Pullfrog, Playwright pin: settled by the decision above.
Pullfrog, no way to observe acceptance: the page reports whether proveRouteKey returned a proof, and the session staying open past SETUP shows the relay accepted it.
Pullfrog, detection contradiction: the old-draft predicate is named from a measurement on the pinned Firefox 157, not from arity, since WebIDL length counts only required arguments.
CodeRabbit, Ed25519 fallback: documented in the Goal.
CodeRabbit, pin freshness: lane expectations are keyed on reported browser versions, and the lane prints both builds.
Checks: sh/markdown.sh check and quest check --base origin/main pass.
Public API and wire impact: planning only. Wire: none planned. A fix would change only whether a tab sends its proof.

Reviewed head 7be024a149d7173f463d6ff99142aca666aeacef against base 809994ba841de7cf5dfed0a0e8b62068496ee5cb after the PR became ready for review.
No actionable findings in this planning-only change. The new quest is linked under the Routes epic's Required list, and its acceptance criteria address the actual gap: both browser engines must prove a key that the relay verifies, rather than merely connect successfully or silently skip an unavailable exporter. Requiring exporter-capable pinned builds in the test lane is consistent with separately allowing older incompatible clients to connect unproven.
I checked the plan against proveRouteKey, both Rust WebTransport exporter derivations, PeerSetupState::prove, the existing Playwright harness/interop workflow, and the follow-up recorded in #8022. The linked MDN BCD PR supports the stated Firefox API-shape distinction. The proposed direction is appropriate: compare both ends of the same real session, fix the derivation mismatch if present, and make the proven-key outcome a nightly/release assertion.
Limits: GitHub-only static review of the two Markdown changes and relevant source context. No browser, local commands, quest checks, or interop tests were run. Browser compatibility and the older-Firefox fallback still need the empirical validation this quest requests; this review does not establish that either works. Exact-head Check was still in progress at the final recheck.
The documentation adds a lite-07 browser route-key proof plan and a required README checklist item. The plan specifies nightly Firefox and Chromium Playwright coverage, relay comparison, and recording pinned browser versions. It also specifies that Firefox 155–159 sends no proof when its exporter shape does not match the relay, allowing an unproven connection.

The relay already verifies proofs, but the planned positive browser check does not detect a regression that records a supplied key without validating its signature. Add a case that sends a tampered proof and requires the relay to reject the session.

Add a rejected-proof control to the browser interop lane described in the “A
nightly Playwright lane” section: send a tampered proof and assert that the
relay rejects the session. Keep the existing valid-proof check to confirm
accepted sessions still work.
The planned lane covers current browsers. Existing Firefox media tests use WebSocket. A two-argument, fixed-32-byte exporter fixture can check that setup omits the proof and completes an unproven session. Ensure Ed25519 works in the test so its failure cannot mask a fallback regression.
Suggested plan update
- ✅ **A browser whose exporter cannot match sends no proof.** If Firefox
155-159's older-draft export differs from the relay's derivation, the JS
client tells it apart at setup from the exporter's shape (the old draft
takes two arguments, the spec three) and sends no proof there, so the tab
connects unproven. Never send a proof the relay will reject. Not chosen:
requiring Firefox 160+; ignoring 155-159.
+- Add a regression fixture for the older two-argument exporter and assert that+ the client omits the route-key proof and completes an unproven session.+ Ensure Ed25519 is available so its failure cannot mask the fallback result.

The lane this plan gates the cut on cannot pass with the repo's current Playwright pin, and the older-Firefox detection is described in a way that contradicts itself. Both are fixable in the plan text before implementation.

New browser-proof quest — quest/m2/cluster-routing/routes/browser-proof.md plans Firefox and Chromium route-key proofs verified at the relay, with three decisions: cover both engines, run a nightly Playwright lane, and have older Firefox send no proof.
Epic index entry — quest/m2/cluster-routing/routes/README.md lists the quest under the Routes epic's Required, which gates the lite-07 cut.
I checked the plan's code references: js/net/src/lite/route_key.ts proves when the exporter exists, both Rust WebTransport wrappers derive the session exporter per draft section 4.8, rs/moq-net/src/lite/setup.rs returns a protocol violation for a bad proof, and the transcript-vector and both-ends exporter tests are where the plan says.

One new P2 planning finding: the version-dependent acceptance table allows the release lane to pass with Firefox still unproven. The inline comment gives the concrete Playwright 1.65.0 combination and the required separation between fallback coverage and release readiness.
The update usefully makes the Playwright prerequisite explicit, documents the Ed25519 fallback, and adds observation of whether a proof was actually produced. I checked all three changed documents, the root/interoperability pins, the referenced freshness/update workflows, and Playwright v1.65.0's browser manifest. The overall direction remains appropriate: keep fallback behavior testable, but require a verified proof from each supported engine to satisfy the cut gate. I have not duplicated the existing browser-freshness discussion.
Limits: GitHub-only static review. No browser exporter comparison, local commands, Markdown/quest checks, or interop runs were performed. This is a defect in the planned gate's acceptance condition, not a claim that an implemented lane already exhibits it. Exact-head Check was still in progress at the final recheck.

[P2] Require both browsers to prove before the release gate passes
The release check here rejects only not yet covered, while Firefox 155-159 sending no proof is an expected passing outcome. At the first planned bump, Playwright 1.65.0 bundles Chromium 158 and Firefox 159 (also confirmed by its browsers.json): Chromium can satisfy proven, Firefox can satisfy sends no proof, and neither is not yet covered. The release lane described here therefore goes green without ever verifying a Firefox proof, contrary to the stated decision that the cut waits for both engines and the Firefox 160 bump. The separate Required quest records the prerequisite but does not make this acceptance condition enforce it.
Keep the old-Firefox fallback case as a valid compatibility test, but make release readiness fail for either not yet coveredorsends no proof; require proven for both engines. Add the Chromium-158/Firefox-159 intermediate combination as a gate regression case.

ℹ️ No critical issues — the decisions and the new quest structure hold; three factual claims in the plan text need correcting.

Playwright bump quest — added playwright-pin.md, a new [S] quest scoping the Playwright and nixpkgs bumps the proof lane waits on, with its Waiting parties.
Cut dependency — recorded the maintainer decision that the lite-07 cut waits on that bump, linked the new quest from the browser-proof Plan, and added both quests to the epic's Required list.
Old-draft predicate — replaced arity-based detection with a measurement-first predicate and a Firefox-major fallback.
Lane expectations and observability — documented how the lane observes the proof decision plus relay acceptance, and keyed expectations on reported browser builds.
Ed25519 gate — noted in the Goal that a page without Ed25519 sends no proof.
I rechecked the new quest's external facts against their sources: npm playwright-core@1.65.0 bundles Chromium 158.0.8127.18 and Firefox 159.0, and both the flake-pinned nixpkgs (fa45202b) and nixpkgs-unstable currently carry playwright-driver1.64.1, so the version description is accurate.

WebIDL length does separate the drafts: the old draft's optional context leaves one required argument, while the spec's three required parameters leave three. The current wording contradicts the Goal above it and rules out a length < 3 predicate that works.

Name the old-draft predicate from that run, not from the exporter's arity:
WebIDL's `length` counts only required arguments, and the old draft's

The lane expectation hard-codes "send none" for Firefox 155-159, but the client gate above is conditional on the measured bytes differing. If the bytes match the relay's derivation (the client already passes an empty context and asks for 32 bytes), a 155-159 tab proves and this expectation fails a correct client.

Plans Browser tabs prove their route key to the relay, a child of the m2 Routes and announces epic that gates the lite-07 cut. It's a follow-up from moq-dev/moq#8022, queued 2026-11-06.
Why it matters: a tab proves a route key whenever its WebTransport has
exportKeyingMaterial, and the relay ends a session whose proof does not verify. So a browser whose exporter disagrees with the relay's draft-ietf-webtrans-http3 derivation cannot open a lite-07 session at all, and no real browser exporter has ever run against the relay. Firefox 155-159 implement an older draft, Firefox 160 (stable Nov 10) the spec, and Chromium is in Canary targeting 158.Decisions (maintainer, 2026-11-06)
