Four short prose corrections folded together to align operator-facing
docs with current v0.3.0 reality:
- README Rust prerequisite reconciled with the toolchain pin (1.94.1,
was 1.85+).
- CONTRIBUTING.md bumps the Rust prerequisite and adds the squash-merge
policy note.
- examples/sidecar-nostr-relay/Dockerfile drops stale --features tui
and the paired --no-default-features; the tui/ble/gateway cargo
features were replaced by platform cfg gates in cbc7809.
- README Features list adds two v0.3.0-visible items: the mesh-
interface security baseline (fips.nft conffile, fips.d/ drop-in,
opt-in fips-firewall.service across all packaging formats) and the
fipsctl stats time-series queries plus fipstop inline sparkline
dashboards.
Status badge bump (v0.3.0--dev to v0.3.0) is deferred to tag time per
the release-prep checklist.

Contributing to FIPS
Getting Started
Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/jmcorgan/fips.git
cd fips
Before changing code, read the protocol docs in this order:
- docs/design/README.md
- docs/design/fips-intro.md
- the specific design doc for the behavior you are touching
Prerequisites
- Rust 1.94.1 and Linux with TUN support
- Use the pinned toolchain from rust-toolchain.toml for deterministic builds
- For the default BLE-enabled build on Debian/Ubuntu:
sudo apt install bluez libdbus-1-dev pkg-config - Docker is required for the integration harnesses under testing/
If you do not want BLE locally, build and test without default features:
cargo build --no-default-features --features tui
cargo test --no-default-features --features tui
Local Verification
Choose the narrowest check that matches your change:
- Docs-only changes:
git diff --check
- Normal code changes:
cargo build
cargo test
cargo clippy --all -- -D warnings
- Local CI-style unit test run:
./testing/ci-local.sh --test-only
- Narrow integration run for transport, routing, Docker, or packaging-sensitive changes:
./testing/ci-local.sh --only static-mesh
See testing/README.md for the available integration and chaos harnesses.
Filing Issues
- Search existing issues before opening a new one.
- Include FIPS version, Rust version, and OS.
- For bugs: steps to reproduce, expected vs actual behavior.
Pull Requests
- All PRs must pass
cargo build,cargo test, andcargo clippy --all -- -D warnings. - Keep commits focused — one logical change per commit.
- Add tests for new functionality.
- Reference relevant design docs if the change touches protocol behavior.
- Pull requests are merged via squash-merge.
- Update docs in the same change when you modify:
- protocol or routing behavior
- wire formats
- configuration shape or defaults
- operational workflows or testing instructions
In practice this usually means updating one or more of:
- docs/design/fips-mesh-operation.md
- docs/design/fips-wire-formats.md
- docs/design/fips-configuration.md
- README.md
- testing/README.md
