 # Changelog
 
+## 2026-10-06 - 4.4.0
+
+### Features
+
+- `allocationPoolGuard.publishedPorts`: publications are exceptions of the allocation-pool guard. A `hostTransit` publication translates an inbound uplink flow to the router's transit address, which lies in a guarded pool, so the guard dropped every published flow in FORWARD by its current destination (and every reply by its current source) on any host that runs both tables: Pallet's docker-shared lab node delivered nothing on its published ports (serve.zone lab 2026-10-06, D12). Each entry `{ protocol, hostPort, hostPortEnd?, targetPort, targetAddress }` admits the flow translated from outside every pool to that exact pool address and port, and its replies, in the default conntrack zone: two or three rules in the guard chain after the original-destination denial, around the CONSTANT interval set `pool_published`. Absent and empty keep every guard's digest and compiled bytes. Readme: "Publications through the allocation-pool guard". Tests: `egress_poolguardpublished_tests` (exact admission, and the guard's own refusal for 18 foreign flows (other address, port, protocol, zone and untranslated flows), unchanged local and reply chains, canonical form, refusals, the largest guard's atomic budget).
+
+### Maintenance
+
+- Release tooling: pnpm 12.8.1, `@git.zone/cli` ^8.8.2, `@git.zone/tstest` ^7.1.0 and `@git.zone/tsrust` 4.0.0. tsrust 4 always remaps local paths and fails a build whose binary still records one, so the obsolete `remapLocalPaths` setting leaves `.smartconfig.json`.
+
+## 2026-10-02 - 4.3.1
+
+### Fixes
+
+- Drop the unused `@push.rocks/smartlog` dependency: `ts/plugins.ts` imported it but nothing used it, and it pulled the deprecated `@push.rocks/isounique` into every consumer's production tree. The production tree is now `@push.rocks/smartpromise` and `@push.rocks/smartrust` alone.
+
+### Maintenance
+
+- Release tooling: pnpm 12.7.0, `@git.zone/cli` ^8.4.0, `@git.zone/tsbuild` ^5.1.2, `@git.zone/tstest` ^7.0.0 and `@types/node` ^26.6.3; the exact cli, tstest and @types/node pins become caret ranges.

+#### Publications through the allocation-pool guard
+
+A `hostTransit` publication translates an inbound flow from the uplink into the
+router's transit address, which lies in a guarded pool, so the guard denies it by
+its current destination and its replies by their current source.
+`allocationPoolGuard.publishedPorts` is optional and lists the publications the
+guard admits: each `{ protocol, hostPort, hostPortEnd?, targetPort, targetAddress }`
+names the published port or range, and the exact pool address and port it is
+translated to (a range keeps every port, so `targetPort` equals `hostPort`). The
+target must be a unicast address inside a listed pool; each protocol and port is
+published at most once; up to 1024 fit. Compile the same publications into the
+guard and into the host-transit scope that translates them, which binds the uplink
+address and the handoff link the guard does not check.
+
+```typescript
+const guard: IManagedNftPolicyV2 = { schemaVersion: 2, revision: 1, scope: {
+  kind: 'allocationPoolGuard', authorityDigest, prefixes: ['10.240.0.0/16', '10.241.0.0/16'],
+  publishedPorts: [{ protocol: 'tcp', hostPort: 443, targetPort: 443, targetAddress: '10.240.0.1' },
+    { protocol: 'udp', hostPort: 20000, hostPortEnd: 20200, targetPort: 20000, targetAddress: '10.240.0.1' }] } };
+```
+
+The admissions sit in the guard chain right after its denial of every pool as an
+original destination, so only a flow translated from outside every pool can match,
+and ahead of every current-address denial: an ESTABLISHED packet of either
+direction and a NEW opening per protocol (TCP only with SYN and FIN/RST/ACK clear),
+in the default conntrack zone, each one lookup of the protocol, the reply tuple's
+source address and port (where the flow was translated to, in both directions) and
+the originally tracked destination port in the CONSTANT interval set
+`pool_published`. Another target, target port, published port, protocol or zone, a
+non-SYN opening and an original destination inside a pool meet the guard unchanged.
+A publication is the exception of every hook it crosses; a forwarded publication
+crosses FORWARD alone. Absent and empty are the same canonical policy, digest and
+compiled bytes. The largest guard (64 pools, 1024 host grants, 8 loopback port
+owners and 1024 publications) compiles to 99,688 rule bytes and 74,640 element
+bytes at revision 1.
