Promote pipeline-parallel-inference to a first-class app and consolidate observability on the datastream wire, decoupling the dashboard crate from `distribution`.
- apps/pipeline-parallel-inference: move the example out of `examples/` into `apps/` as its own workspace, rename binaries to `pp-worker`/`pp-orchestrator`, and strip release binaries
- cluster: add `ClusterNode`, a synchronous facade over the actorized distribution protocol (IrohDriver + per-node Runtime hosting Swim/Registry/Metadata/Directory actors with a `MembershipFanout`), replacing ad-hoc `driver.node()`/`tick()` call sites
- fleet: add per-node fleet telemetry that ships identity/resource records as `DatastreamFrame`s over the cluster transport to the orchestrator's `DatastreamSink`, folded into a `FleetView` on a 3s tick
- provision: add best-effort, opt-in SSH boot-phase telemetry (`PP_DEPLOY_KEY`) that streams rented-node boot logs onto the orchestrator's datastream as `proc.boot.<stage>.*`
- dashboard: rewire the crate dependency from `distribution` to `datastream`, drop the standalone `swactor-datastream-dashboard` binary, and rewrite `datastream_source.rs` to demux per-node frames into Overview/Distribution/Fleet views with live-node TTL filtering
- distribution: refresh dist/netmap plugin copy and README from "Kademlia routing" to gossip-directory terminology

Strip the collector/aggregator/postproc/snapshot, vastai sampler+shipper,
host/iroh/subprocess/swim introspection, relay observability, sink/spool, and the diag
binaries; drop the t_diag_* tests. Remove DiagEvent emission from iroh_driver. Add
datastream emit/wire (mux + NoopSink/UdpFrameSink/ClusterFrameSink) and rewire the
dashboard onto datastream_source.

Upgrades iroh/iroh-relay across datastore, distribution, node, and integration,
adapts iroh_driver to the new Endpoint::builder(Minimal).relay_mode(...) API, and
removes the vendored ed25519-dalek patch now that 0.98 resolves the upstream compile
errors. Adds the SIM_SPEC.md simulator MVP spec under pipeline-parallel-inference.

Remove the unused TCP transport and dead CLI/simulation scaffolding and collapse scattered single-purpose modules into consolidated files across the dashboard, process, and simulation crates.
- crates/transport: drop the TCP transport (src/tcp.rs and its tcp feature), leaving only ed25519 identity and encoding utilities behind the iroh transport
- crates/dashboard: collapse actor_detail_html/actors_html/dashboard_html/topology_html into a single html.rs, drop command/parse.rs, and inline the trace types into lib.rs
- crates/process: fold driver, pipeline_types, queue, subscriber, waker, and local pipes/signal/wait into local/mod.rs, pipeline.rs, and a unified types.rs, consolidating the public re-exports
- crates/simulation: remove the ci subdirectory (local_sim, sim) and dead node/config/trace modules, and flatten the distribution subdirectory into top-level files
- crates/datastore: remove the unused store_cli, cli, and in-memory storage, and deduplicate crypto.rs across datastore and distribution (about 190 lines of shared code removed)
- crates/distribution: drop dead codec code and trim the messages module

Remove co-dependencies for different modules found in `crates` and migrate the development history to a new repository. The docs were stale, and largely not getting used, so simply deleted for now. When code stabilizes more, they will become useful again.

Introduce a gossip-converged pooled datastore protocol layered on SWIM piggybacking, backed by a reusable gossip-channel abstraction, plus a Docker-free multi-process cluster test runner.
- crates/distribution/src/gossip_channel.rs: add the GossipChannel trait (piggyback on SWIM messages) and a budget-limited DisseminationBuffer<T> that replaces the four duplicated Lambda*ceil(log2(n)) dissemination copies
- crates/datastore/src/pool: add PoolDisseminator (CRDT state for membership/capacity/content-location/ACL with join/leave/announce) and PoolCoordinator (placement-aware CRUD actor delegating to the co-located DatastoreNode)
- crates/shared-types/src/pool.rs: add shared pool protocol types (PoolId plus member/capacity/content-location/ACL entries and PoolConfig) consumed by both distribution and datastore
- crates/dashboard/src/pool_html.rs: add a live pool dashboard page (membership, capacity, content locations) and add pool_tests integration coverage
- xtask/src/sim_cluster.rs: add the sim-cluster runner that spawns N swactor nodes over iroh through a local relay server, reusing the docker cluster scenarios without Docker
- crates/distribution/src/iroh_driver.rs: add relay-URL resolution (cache, then SWIM gossip, then home relay) with a 2s connect timeout to back the relay-based connections

Extract the timer wheel and watch registry from the worker into a reusable std-extension crate, generalize the worker around a RuntimeExtension factory, and decompose the monolithic runtime test file into focused suites.
- crates/std: extract TimerWheel (deterministic tick-counted one-shot/interval timers) and WatchRegistry (target-to-watcher death-notification index) out of src/worker.rs into reusable modules
- crates/std: add Ctx extension traits (CtxMonitoring, CtxNaming, CtxWatching, CtxTimers) and Runtime extension traits (RuntimeNaming, RuntimeWatching, RuntimeGroups) wiring monitor/name/watch/timer/group support
- src/worker.rs: replace the hard-coded timer/watch fields with a generic RuntimeExtension factory and add route_to_pool_or_remote for message routing (local pool, then cross-worker address map, then external inboxes)
- tests: split the 4622-line tests/runtime_api.rs into focused suites (actor_lifecycle, message_delivery, runtime_stress, std_extension) plus a shared tests/common/mod.rs harness, and drop watch_api.rs
- benches/fuzz: add runtime_benchmarks and adjust the runtime fuzz target
- tools/docs: add fn_complexity.py and loc_analysis.py analysis scripts and refresh the runtime and worker-thread docs

Stand up a runnable distribution stack on top of the core node logic.
- distribution: add NodeDriver bridging DistributedNode to real TCP I/O
(TcpTransport/TcpAcceptor), translating NodeActions to/from wire messages;
refine swim probe timing and transport wiring.
- node: new swactor-node binary (crates/node) hosting a real node over TCP.
- tests/docker: multi-host LAN cluster harness (compose, run-lan-cluster.sh,
cluster + lan_cluster integration tests) exercising the full SWIM path.
- simulation: cluster_scenarios integration + distribution property coverage.
- docs: reorganize into distribution/, runtime/, diagrams/, connectome/; add
DOCKER_REALIZATION + SIMULATION_TESTING realization notes.

Lay down the wasm-actor host, a frontend-agnostic command layer, and a
distribution registry.
- command (new crate): CommandRouter dispatching to built-in inspection handlers
(overview/workers/actors) plus user-registered handlers, with line and
query-param parsers; built for REPL/REST/TUI/WebSocket frontends.
- wasm-actor (new crate): skeleton host — WasmActor, Builder, Engine, error
types — with echo/double/silent guest fixtures and integration tests.
- distribution: add Registry (member catalog + lookups) and Snapshot, with tests.
- core: extend the worker watch API; add watch_api integration tests.

hashing, config, stats), adds a fuzz target, a proptest suite, expands runtime_api
tests, and adds cfuzz cycle notes + benchmarks.

Make mailbox push infallible and replace the locked tick-timing buffer with a
lock-free ring.
- channel: HybridChannel::push and Sender::send now return () — overflow always
absorbs, never rejects — dropping the Result<(), T> surface and its callers.
- stats: tick_timings moves from Mutex<VecDeque> to a lock-free crossbeam
ArrayQueue (drop-oldest-on-full), removing the per-tick lock.
- ripple the signature change through worker/runtime/config; drop worker_benchmarks.
- expand runtime_api tests around the new channel/stats shapes.

Adds some basic benchmarking, stress tests. They still need to be properly examined to ensure they are testing the correct properties, but fit for "good enough". Implements the HybridChannel type, which features a channel buffer that can withstand overflows. It does so by providing a dequeue behind a mutex. Without overflow, will push messages into the lock free ArrayQueue implemented by crossbeam_queue; when that buffer fills, will use the locking portion provided by the Mutex<VecDequeue>.
In the future we can even further optimize this, perhaps with some linked list implementations of lock-free channels, but, like the benchmarks, this fits the "good enough" bar for now.
