Date: May 2026
Current version: 0.3.1 Beta
Gate status: PRODUCTION_GATE.md Gate 1 complete (with minor doc/packaging follow-ups)
v0.3.1 Beta is shipped: core file operations work, all CTest suites pass, installers are on GitHub. The daemon uses a simplified custom protocol — not verified against native rsync(1). TLS, production security, and native client compatibility remain v0.4.0 / v0.5.0 work.
| Area | Status |
|---|---|
| Linux DEB / RPM, FreeBSD PKG, macOS PKG/DMG | ✅ |
| Module list/upload/download/delete/mkdir | ✅ |
Protocol parsing + key=value args |
✅ |
| INI config + validation | ✅ |
| Password auth (SHA-256 + legacy plain) | ✅ |
| CTest 5/5 | ✅ |
| README + project docs (post May 2026 update) | ✅ |
| Component | % | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Build / packaging | 95 | Windows MSI less exercised |
| Custom protocol + modules | 85 | Beta-stable |
| INI configuration | 90 | Primary format |
| Authentication | 70 | No OAuth2; SHA-256 not bcrypt |
| TLS / crypto transport | 25 | Stub |
| Rate limiting (runtime) | 10 | Config only |
| Native rsync compatibility | 0 | Unverified |
| Observability | 10 | No Prometheus |
| Documentation accuracy | 85 | User guide partially updated |
v0.2.0 MVP — core code
v0.3.0 Packaging — installers; tests red
v0.3.1 Beta — tests green, doc scrub, release assets
v0.4.0 Security-ready (planned)
v0.5.0 Production (planned)
- Linux CI
cteston push - macOS DMG path parity audit vs PKG
- Install smoke-test doc (package → start → one transfer)
- Full user-guide scrub (
docs/shared/user-guide/)
Strengths: Professional build/packaging, passing test suite, honest Beta positioning.
Risks: Security features mostly config-level; do not expose to untrusted networks without v0.4.0.
Overall: Ready for controlled beta deployments; not ready for general production.
