VerseVDI Data Plane

This private-Gitea repository is the GPLv3 implementation boundary for the separately deployed VerseVDI data plane. Phase 3C will add the pure-Go gateway and Apollo adapter here; later phases add the Rust streaming core and native clients. The proprietary Connection Server remains a separate process and repository.

Current status

The repository is prepared for Phase 3C-G gateway implementation. It does not yet contain a gateway or Apollo adapter. Implementation uses deterministic pinned-source fixtures and a bounded fake provider; the owner will perform live Apollo/macOS acceptance after both candidates exist. Deferring that live row does not authorize direct client-to-Apollo routing, cgo, a native sidecar, or decode/transcode behavior.

The existing Xcode project is retained for the later native-client phase. It is not Phase 3C gateway evidence and must not be used to move provider or Connection Server authority into a client.

Repository boundaries

• gateway/ owns the separately deployed pure-Go gateway and provider adapters.
• core/ and clients/ are reserved for later approved Rust/native-client work.
• integration/, packaging/, and docs/ may be added only by their corresponding approved OpenSpec tasks.
• The repository never owns PostgreSQL, commercial licensing, durable user or assignment authority, or general Connection Server administration.
• The Verse client never receives or connects to an Apollo/provider endpoint.
• The Protocol repository is the sole wire-contract authority; consumers pin an immutable release without a filesystem replace.

Verification

The baseline uses Go 1.26.5 and OpenSpec 1.5.0:

make verify

The command checks formatting, module integrity, compilation, vet, tests, and strict OpenSpec validation. Verification is change-driven: rerun affected checks after a change and the complete repository gate once after a candidate is frozen. Do not run time-based verification loops.

Licensing and publication

The repository currently uses the GNU GPL version 3 engineering baseline and is private in Gitea. Public distribution, final SPDX/legal review, release artifacts, and Corresponding Source promotion evidence require separate authorization. See LICENSE, THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md, and CONTRIBUTING.md.
