End-to-end simulation: 4 mix nodes with RLN spam protection, LEZ sequencer, gifter service, and two logos-chat-module clients exchanging double-ratchet-encrypted messages through 3-hop Sphinx onion routes. Simulation scripts: - run_simulation.sh: orchestrates sequencer, mix nodes, chat clients, with poll-based readiness checks and 15 verification checks - setup_and_run.sh: one-shot build + run for fresh clones - run_in_docker.sh: Docker-based Linux testing with pre-built modules - README.md: configuration, troubleshooting, architecture guide Configurable via SIM_* env vars (ports, timeouts, log level). Cross-platform: macOS native + Linux via Docker. Docker image (Dockerfile.sim) uses multi-stage build: - Stage 1: builds all LEZ modules, sequencer, liblogoschat, chat-module - Stage 2: copies only runtime nix closure (~1.9GB) + output artifacts - Pre-built modules are symlinked at runtime, skipping build_all.sh

# Mix + LEZ RLN Chat Simulation
|
||
|
||
End-to-end private chat between two `logos-chat-module` clients over a 4-node mix network with LEZ-backed RLN spam protection against a local LEZ sequencer.
|
||
|
||
Two logoscore instances (sender + receiver) load `chat_module` and establish an X3DH key agreement via an out-of-band intro bundle, then exchange double-ratchet-encrypted messages routed through 3-hop Sphinx onion routes with per-hop RLN proof generation and verification. Node 0 mounts the `rln_gifter` service; nodes 1-3 and both chat clients register RLN memberships on-chain via the gifter protocol. The chat clients run `mix: true, relay: false, filter: true` — the sender publishes via `lightpushPublish(mixify=true)`, the mix exit node verifies the RLN proof before fanning out via gossipsub relay to the shard, and the receiver consumes the message via a Waku filter subscription on one of the mix nodes.
|
||
|
||
## Architecture
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
logoscore (per mix node) logoscore (per chat client)
|
||
├── wallet_module (LEZ wallet) ├── wallet_module (LEZ wallet)
|
||
├── liblogos_rln_module (RLN proofs) ├── liblogos_rln_module (RLN proofs)
|
||
└── delivery_module (Waku mix relay) └── chat_module (logos-chat-module)
|
||
├── liblogosdelivery.so ├── chat_module_plugin.so
|
||
└── mix + relay + filter + gifter └── liblogoschat.so
|
||
└── mix client + filter + gifter client
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Node 0 runs the RLN gifter service. Nodes 1-3 register via gifter on startup. Chat clients also register via gifter when `startChat()` runs.
|
||
|
||
## Quick start
|
||
|
||
**Prereqs:** nix (with flakes), Docker (for guest zkVM binaries), cargo-risczero, SSH access to GitHub.
|
||
|
||
**Run from scratch:**
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
git clone -b feat/logos-delivery git@github.com:adklempner/logos-chat.git
|
||
cd logos-chat && bash simulations/mix_lez_chat/setup_and_run.sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Re-run (after initial build):**
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
bash simulations/mix_lez_chat/run_simulation.sh --fresh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Pass = **ALL 15 CHECKS PASSED**.
|
||
|
||
## Configuration
|
||
|
||
Override via environment variables:
|
||
|
||
| Variable | Default | Description |
|
||
|---|---|---|
|
||
| `SIM_NUM_NODES` | `4` | Number of mix relay nodes |
|
||
| `SIM_BASE_TCP_PORT` | `60001` | First node's TCP port (increments per node) |
|
||
| `SIM_BASE_DISC_PORT` | `9001` | First node's discv5 UDP port (increments per node) |
|
||
| `SIM_CLUSTER_ID` | `99` | Waku cluster ID |
|
||
| `SIM_LOG_LEVEL` | `INFO` | Node log level (TRACE, DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR) |
|
||
| `SIM_CHAT_RECV_PORT` | `60010` | Chat receiver TCP port |
|
||
| `SIM_CHAT_SEND_PORT` | `60011` | Chat sender TCP port |
|
||
| `SIM_KADEMLIA_MIN_WAIT` | `30` | Minimum seconds to wait for kademlia propagation |
|
||
| `SIM_RECEIVER_MIN_WAIT` | `15` | Minimum seconds to wait for receiver to join mix |
|
||
| `SIM_DELIVERY_TIMEOUT` | `120` | Max seconds to wait for message delivery |
|
||
|
||
Example — fast iteration with verbose logging:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
SIM_LOG_LEVEL=TRACE SIM_KADEMLIA_MIN_WAIT=10 SIM_RECEIVER_MIN_WAIT=5 \
|
||
bash simulations/mix_lez_chat/run_simulation.sh --fresh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## `--fresh` behavior
|
||
|
||
When `--fresh` is passed:
|
||
- Kills all existing `logos_host` processes
|
||
- Cleans `/tmp/logos_*` Qt RemoteObjects sockets
|
||
- Removes `.sim_state/` directory
|
||
- Removes sequencer state (`rocksdb/`, `bedrock_signing_key`)
|
||
- Rebuilds and restarts the sequencer
|
||
- Redeploys RLN programs via `run_setup`
|
||
|
||
Without `--fresh`, reuses existing sequencer if port 3040 is already bound.
|
||
|
||
## Checks (15 total)
|
||
|
||
| Category | Check | What it verifies |
|
||
|---|---|---|
|
||
| Mix nodes (4) | Node N mounted mix | Mix protocol handler registered |
|
||
| RLN gifter | Node 0 gifter service mounted | `/logos/rln-gifter/1.0.0` protocol handler |
|
||
| LEZ RLN | LEZ root polling active | Nodes polling valid Merkle roots from LEZ |
|
||
| Chat module (4) | Receiver/Sender initialized | `chatInitResult` event fired |
|
||
| | Receiver/Sender started | `Waku client started` + `chatStartResult` |
|
||
| | Receiver/Sender mounted mix+LEZ | Mix protocol + LEZ callbacks wired |
|
||
| | Receiver created intro bundle | X3DH pre-key bundle generated |
|
||
| Message exchange (2) | Sender sent message | `chatNewPrivateConversationResult` |
|
||
| | Receiver received message | `chatNewMessage` via filter subscription |
|
||
|
||
## Troubleshooting
|
||
|
||
**"Sequencer failed to start"** — port 3040 already in use:
|
||
```bash
|
||
kill $(lsof -ti tcp:3040) && bash simulations/mix_lez_chat/run_simulation.sh --fresh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**"run_setup failed" / "Timeout waiting for account"** — stale guest binaries or wallet state:
|
||
```bash
|
||
rm -rf vendor/logos-lez-rln/lez-rln/methods/guest/target
|
||
rm -f vendor/logos-lez-rln/dev/wallet_config.json vendor/logos-lez-rln/dev/storage.json
|
||
bash simulations/mix_lez_chat/setup_and_run.sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**"Sender started FAIL"** — stale Qt RemoteObjects sockets:
|
||
```bash
|
||
rm -f /tmp/logos_*
|
||
bash simulations/mix_lez_chat/run_simulation.sh --fresh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**"FAIL: Receiver received message (0)"** — timing issue, try re-running:
|
||
```bash
|
||
bash simulations/mix_lez_chat/run_simulation.sh --fresh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Adapting for other LEZ programs
|
||
|
||
This simulation provides a complete mix network infrastructure that other logos modules can reuse for testing. To test your own module:
|
||
|
||
### What the sim provides
|
||
- 4 logoscore mix nodes with `delivery_module` (Waku relay + mix + RLN)
|
||
- LEZ sequencer with deployed RLN programs
|
||
- RLN gifter service on node 0
|
||
- Wallet modules for on-chain transactions
|
||
|
||
### What you replace
|
||
The chat_module sender/receiver instances (phase 5 of run_simulation.sh). Your module needs:
|
||
|
||
1. **A C++ Qt plugin** implementing `PluginInterface` (see `chat_module_plugin.cpp`)
|
||
- `initLogos(LogosAPI*)` — receive the LogosAPI instance
|
||
- `eventResponse(QString, QVariantList)` signal — mandatory per logos-liblogos contract
|
||
- Methods exposed via `LOGOS_METHOD` for logoscore `-c` invocation
|
||
2. **A shared library** with your program logic (like `liblogoschat.so`)
|
||
3. **RLN integration** — wire `setRlnConfig` to pass RLN credentials from the C++ plugin to your library
|
||
4. **EVENT: stderr fallback** — on Linux, Qt signal forwarding from plugin to logoscore doesn't work across the FFI thread boundary. Write event data to stderr in `EVENT:name:data` format for cross-platform reliability.
|
||
|
||
### How to stage your module
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
MDIR=$(mktemp -d)
|
||
mkdir -p "$MDIR/your_module"
|
||
cp your_module_plugin.so "$MDIR/your_module/"
|
||
cp libyour_library.so "$MDIR/your_module/"
|
||
echo '{"name":"your_module","version":"1.0.0","type":"core",...}' > "$MDIR/your_module/manifest.json"
|
||
|
||
logoscore -m "$MDIR" \
|
||
-l "liblogos_execution_zone_wallet_module,liblogos_rln_module,your_module" \
|
||
-c "liblogos_execution_zone_wallet_module.open($WALLET_CONFIG,$WALLET_STORAGE)" \
|
||
-c "your_module.init(@config.json)" \
|
||
-c "your_module.start()"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
