Reduces open followups from 11 → 10 (back at the soft threshold).
Step 0 triage flagged F1 as resolvable now: M4's connect-path
example will need a from_env constructor anyway, and the hostname
lookup is portable enough not to need a native-libc dep.
New
- NtlmClientContext::from_env() -> Result<Self, NtlmError>: reads
MX_RPC_USER / MX_RPC_PASSWORD / MX_RPC_DOMAIN env vars. Empty
MX_RPC_DOMAIN is permitted (workgroup auth). Mirrors the .NET
ManagedNtlmClientContext.FromEnvironment() at cs:41-49.
- local_hostname() -> String public helper: checks COMPUTERNAME
(Windows) then HOSTNAME (POSIX) and returns the empty string when
neither is set — same "unavailable" semantics as
Environment.MachineName returning null. No gethostname(2) call,
no unsafe, no native-libc dep. Callers needing reliable POSIX
hostnames can pass workstation explicitly.
- NtlmError::MissingEnvVar { name: &'static str } variant.
Tests (8 new in ntlm; total 27)
- from_env three-var happy path
- from_env missing each of the three vars (3 tests)
- from_env accepts empty MX_RPC_DOMAIN
- local_hostname prefers COMPUTERNAME over HOSTNAME
- local_hostname falls back to HOSTNAME
- local_hostname returns empty when neither set
- All env-mutating tests serialize via a static ENV_LOCK Mutex inside
EnvScope, since std::env::set_var touches process-global state and
cargo runs #[test]s in parallel by default.
design/followups.md: F1 moved to Resolved.
Open followups: 11 → 10 (back at soft threshold).
Test count delta: 498 -> 506 (+8). All four DoD gates green.

design/ — Rust port architectural plan
This folder is the design contract for the Rust replacement of AVEVA/Wonderware MXAccess. It is the gap between the .NET reference in src/ and the Rust crates that will be written under a sibling rust/ workspace (per CLAUDE.md).
The folder is structured as a small set of focused documents. Read in order; each builds on the previous.
| File | Purpose |
|---|---|
00-overview.md |
Mission, two-layer goal, architectural principles, non-goals |
10-raw-layer.md |
Byte-accurate raw MXAccess layer (codec + transport + session) |
20-async-layer.md |
Idiomatic Tokio async layer on top of the raw layer |
30-crate-topology.md |
Cargo workspace, crates, dependencies, build/test commands |
40-protocol-invariants.md |
Bill of materials: IIDs, opnums, envelope/handle bytes |
50-error-model.md |
MxStatus, error types, panic/cancellation policy |
60-roadmap.md |
Milestones M0..M6, validation strategy |
70-risks-and-open-questions.md |
Parity gaps, unproven flows, cross-platform constraints |
dependencies.md |
Cross- and within-milestone parallelism map; agent budget per phase |
review.md |
Adversarial review log (BLOCKER/MAJOR/MINOR/NIT findings, all resolved) |
prompt.md |
/loop driver prompt for autonomous M2–M6 execution |
followups.md |
Open / resolved deferred work items; auto-triaged by prompt.md Step 0 (created on first /loop run if missing) |
The design is grounded in the .NET reference at src/ and the protocol artifacts in docs/, analysis/, and captures/. Do not introduce protocol behavior in these documents that is not already proven in the reference. When adding a new claim about wire format, cite either:
- a
.csfile path insrc/MxNativeCodec/,src/MxNativeClient/, orsrc/MxAsbClient/, or - a
docs/*.mdspec file, or - a
captures/0NN-frida-*directory oranalysis/frida/*.tsvrow.
This folder is documentation, not code. When the Rust workspace is created, the design here is the contract it must satisfy. When evidence in captures/ invalidates a design decision here, update the design first, then the code.
Reading order
- New contributor: 00 → 30 → 10 → 40 → 20 → 50 → 60 → 70.
- Protocol question: 40 first, then the relevant section of 10.
- API question: 20 first, then 50.
- Planning a milestone: 60 first, cross-reference 70 for blockers.
- Scheduling concurrent work:
dependencies.mdfor the per-phase parallelism map. - Driving M2–M6 autonomously via
/loop:prompt.md(and thefollowups.mdtriage log it maintains).
