Retail Gates A-G passed on the pinned CardsDLL build (4706a881), and the repair
has been live-proven repeatedly, so it is now a promoted feature. Arming it from
OPENFUT_SBC_DISPATCH meant any launch that did not export it (Steam, the launcher
Launch button, a bare umu-run) silently lost the SBC screen to the known
response-to-deserializer dispatch defect, leaving a harness script as the only
working entry point.
REPAIR_PROMOTED is now a build constant with a compile-time contract, and both
install sites derive from it: sbc_dispatch::install always arms, and
sbc_trace::install derives the parser/notifier/controller-registration traces from
it because those traces ARE the repair decision inputs, not optional diagnostics.
Promotion weakens no check. Safety stays in the runtime evidence gate rather than a
flag: the worker still validates the exact CardsDLL signatures before installing a
detour, and decide() still requires the transport sentinel status, the pinned
category-response vtable captured while the response object was provably live,
balanced parser counts on the one parser thread, this generation notifier having
entered AND returned, the captured controller/model identity, and one repair per
deserializer generation. An unrecognised build leaves native execution untouched.
Rollback is a file swap (restore the previous version.dll via the hook harness
backup), the documented client rollback path, deliberately not an env kill-switch.
fmt clean, strict clippy clean on default and fifa17 features, 22 tests pass,
release cross-build to x86_64-pc-windows-gnu produces artifact 3641d581.
Modernize manual nul-terminated byte strings to C-string literals (c"...")
at all Win32 GetModuleHandleA/GetProcAddress/getaddrinfo call sites (byte-identical),
drop two redundant SOL_SOCKET-as-i32 casts, remove a needless return in the fifa17
install path, and add a # Safety section to DllMain. Scope the FIFA-23-path
dead-code/unused-import lints (unused only under the fifa17 feature, stripped by the
linker) with a documented crate-level cfg_attr allow. Cross-verified: both the
default and fifa17 builds now pass clippy -D warnings and compile; probe and
capture_baseline still build.
- sbc_hook.rs: trace SBC submission/response flow with request IDs
- sbc_request_trace.rs: capture request/response bodies for analysis
- sbc_trace.rs: runtime trace buffer with structured logging
Work in progress - needs validation against live FIFA 17 client
In-process, read-only probes and transport observation built while closing
the online/FUT route from both the memory and network sides.
- probe.rs / dial_notification.rs: menu-time ctx dump, connMgr enumerator,
synthetic dial-notification + direct-call dial trigger, and the
[element+0x40] container write-watchpoint. All env-gated, one-shot,
VirtualQuery-guarded; none alter game state by default.
- transport_watch.rs + connect/connectex/hooks/lib: M0 transport observation
(grep-friendly TRANSPORT_WATCH logging on the existing getaddrinfo/connect/
WSAConnect/ConnectEx detours) and an IPv6 (v4-mapped) EA-redirect so the
game's IPv6 :443 dials land on the bridge instead of the dead servers.
Findings: the game never initiates a Blaze connection offline; the dial
handler is registered by a self-registering, message-driven state machine
whose container stays empty with no Blaze exchange. See openfut-bridge
docs/closure-and-preservation.md.

install_force_connect() is no longer auto-called from install_probes_deferred,
so normal probe builds don't poke the online flow. Kept for reference; re-enable
the call to reproduce the 2026-07-02 forcing experiment.

Expands to 8 entry probes across the connect-state lifecycle (ctor, controller
accessor, four vtable steps) to distinguish entered-but-stalled from never-entered.
Result: ctor fires x4, everything else 0 — subsystem created but dormant.

Replaces the anadius-connectivity probes with the game-side Nucleus-connect
functions (nucleusConnectREST/Trusted, connect-state tick) and adds a
VirtualQuery-guarded sampler thread that reads X=[0x14acd02c0] -> M=[X+0x360]
-> ctx=[M+0x778] once/sec to observe the session context directly. Per-slot
log cap prevents per-frame handlers flooding the log. Run 3 result: ctx is
non-null but the connect functions are never called (see bridge findings).

The OnlineStatusEventT::HandleMessage dispatch resolves its game-side
listener only at runtime (call [rax+0x28]). openfut_listener_stub patches
FIFA23.exe+0x274d4d7 to replicate the four dispatch instructions while
logging the resolved vtable/fn, then resumes. Alignment-safe (saves/rounds
rsp before the log call). Result: listener = FIFA23.exe+0x2751060 = ret 0,
a no-op default vtable slot -> the online->auth transition is state-polled,
not callback-driven.

Hook-side tooling for the LSX/Blaze reverse-engineering effort:
- probe.rs (new, `probe` feature): passive logging detours on FIFA's online-flow
functions via the unhook/rehook pattern (no trampoline/relocation, works on
RIP-relative prologues). Deferred install waits for anadius64.dll to load, then
logs enter/return for GoOnline + GetInternetConnectedState (anadius) and the
OnlineStatusEvent/Login deserializers (FIFA23.exe). Revealed that our pushed LSX
events reach FIFA and parse OK, while GoOnline never fires — localizing the online
gate to FIFA's game-side event consumer.
- connect_hook.rs: redirect FIFA's LSX connect :3216 → :3217 so it lands on the
native openfut-bridge LSX server (slips past anadius's in-process :3216 intercept);
gated off under the `capture_baseline` feature.
- recv_hook.rs: boundary-safe trampolines + LSX peer filtering for the
capture_baseline path (log anadius's real LSX frames when the redirect is off).
Build the instrumented DLL with `--features probe` (or `--features capture_baseline`
for the anadius-baseline capture). Both features are off by default.

Adds connect_hook, connectex_hook, recv_hook, ssl_patch, tls_bypass, lsx, ea_stub,
and origin_spy modules to intercept EA's TLS and socket layers in addition to
getaddrinfo. Adds DLL-level logging to C:\openfut_hook.log for debugging. Also
patches windows-sys feature flags to include Cryptography and Threading APIs needed
by the new hooks.

The DLL now reads openfut.cfg from its own directory on DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH
and uses the IP it contains as the redirect target instead of hardcoding
127.0.0.1. Falls back to 127.0.0.1 if the file is absent.
The launcher writes openfut.cfg alongside version.dll when deploying, and
the Setup tab exposes a "Redirect IP" field with an "Update" button that
rewrites openfut.cfg in-place without redeploying the DLL. Useful when
running the emulator on a different machine on the LAN.

Adds openfut-hook/, a Windows DLL (cdylib, x86_64-pc-windows-gnu) that
patches the IAT of FIFA 23 at load time to redirect getaddrinfo calls
for fut.ea.com / utas.*.fut.ea.com to 127.0.0.1, sending all FUT
traffic to the local bridge — no /etc/hosts changes needed.
Deployment: the launcher copies openfut_hook.dll into the FIFA 23 game
folder as version.dll (a DLL FIFA loads but delegates to system).
Proton picks up the local copy automatically when you set:
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="version=n,b" %command%
in Steam launch options.
Also updates cert install to try the Wine/Proton cert store (wine
certutil) before falling back to the Linux system CA store, and removes
all hosts file code from setup.rs / app.rs.
