+## 2.9.22
+
+- **Fix**: The proxy no longer crashes on a repeat/remote WebRTC session (regression from 2.9.18). Two causes, both fixed: (1) `webrtc-manager.handleSignal` called `setRemoteDescription`/`addRemoteCandidate` with **no try/catch**, so when node-datachannel threw synchronously (`Failed to gather local ICE candidates`) the whole process died — killing every viewer and the tunnel — and was restarted by s6. It now contains the error per session (logs + closes only that session, never throws out of the handler). (2) Root cause of the gather failure: 2.9.18 set `enableIceUdpMux` per-PeerConnection but with **no persistent mux owner**, so the shared UDP socket was bound/freed with each connection — a session opened while a just-closed one still held the fixed port could not bind it and failed to gather. Fixed by creating ONE persistent `IceUdpMuxListener` on the fixed UDP port once at startup (owned by the WebRTC manager for the proxy's whole lifetime, released on shutdown via `dispose()`); every session keeps `enableIceUdpMux` + the same port and demuxes over the shared socket by ICE ufrag. This keeps the clean single-port model (one UDP port, one UPnP mapping, one reachable endpoint) while surviving session churn. Verified against libdatachannel issue #861 and locally: 5 sequential + 2 concurrent PeerConnections all gather on the one port with no error, and the srflx candidate carries the fixed port.
+
+## 2.9.21
+
+- **Chore**: Diagnostic — the `/api/sources/:key/stats` route now logs the real swarm state on every poll: `[stats] <key> peers=N down=NKB/s file=N% header=down/totalB`. This surfaces a cold-start download stall (0 peers / header not advancing), which is what makes `POST /api/playback-plan` block on the codec probe until the browser's data-channel request times out. (Diagnosis: on the first/cold attempt the file header has not downloaded within ~60 s — likely worsened by `uTP not supported` on arm64/musl limiting peers — so the blocking probe times out; a warm attempt minutes later, with the header already cached, probes in ~25 ms and plays. Verified by the same torrent failing cold on cellular and playing warm on desktop.)
+
+## 2.9.20
+
+- **New**: Startup NAT classification (`services/nat-classifier.js`, dependency-free — `node:dgram` + `node:crypto`). From a single local UDP socket the proxy sends a STUN Binding Request to two different public STUN servers (Google + Cloudflare) and compares the reflexive external port: same → **endpoint-independent (cone)** NAT (the fixed-port WebRTC mapping from 2.9.18 is sufficient, no port prediction needed); different → **symmetric** NAT (the mapped port varies per viewer, so WebRTC will need port prediction — a later roadmap step). The class is logged at startup. Best-effort: STUN probes are time-bounded and never block startup; an inconclusive probe is logged and ignored. Uses the modern dual-server, single-socket test (no RFC 3489 CHANGE-REQUEST, which public STUN servers like Google's do not support). Evaluated `@xmcl/stun-client`/`stun` (both MIT) but their public APIs create a fresh socket per query and/or rely on CHANGE-REQUEST, which is wrong for this test — hence the minimal in-house client.
+
+## 2.9.19
+
+- **Chore**: Diagnostics for verifying remote WebRTC reachability and root-causing failures. `port-mapper.js` now logs a `removed mapping for <proto> <port>` line on clean shutdown unmap (previously silent on success). `webrtc-manager.js` now logs the **full** local ICE candidate (`addr:port typ …`, so the pinned UDP port is visible), every **ICE-state** transition (`checking → connected/failed`), and — on connect — the **selected candidate pair** (`local=[…] remote=[…]` with type/address/port), the single most useful line for "did the WebRTC path connect, and over which route (LAN / public srflx v4 / v6)".
+
 ## 2.9.18
 
 - **New**: WebRTC is now reachable behind NAT via a static UDP port mapping. All sessions are pinned to a single UDP port (same number as the HTTP port, default 9090) and multiplexed over it (`enableIceUdpMux` + `portRangeBegin`/`portRangeEnd` in `webrtc-manager.js`), and that UDP port is UPnP/NAT-PMP-mapped at startup (a second `port-mapper.js` instance, protocol UDP, removed on shutdown). Because the socket is bound to a fixed, statically-mapped port, the proxy's `srflx` ICE candidate now carries `publicIP:9090` — reachable from the browser even behind symmetric NAT for that port (previously WebRTC used an ephemeral UDP port that UPnP could not map). Verified: two PeerConnections share the one UDP port with no bind conflict; host + srflx (v4 and global v6) candidates all carry the fixed port. The UDP endpoint is not reported to the server (the browser learns it via ICE, not the TCP dial-back probe).
