Custom Routing Rules & Real-time Validation

  • Comprehensive custom routing rules supporting DOMAIN, DOMAIN-SUFFIX, DOMAIN-KEYWORD, IP-CIDR, IP-CIDR6, and GEOIP with custom targets (DIRECT, REJECT, PROXY, or proxy groups).
  • Dual-mode editing supporting visual form and Clash text line syntax, with real-time field-level validation and syntax error hints.
  • Top priority in routing chain, and direct domain custom rules are automatically injected into fake-ip-filter to bypass DNS hijacking.

Live Rule Simulation, Verification & Hot Reload

  • One-click rule test in editor and route simulation engine highlighting custom rule matches with distinctive green CUSTOM badges.
  • Seamless hot reload via lightweight IPC without restarting network extensions or dropping active connections.

Tailscale CGNAT Bypass & Headscale Timeout Resolution

  • Explicitly added Tailscale CGNAT 100.64.0.0/10 to TUN default excluded routes, preventing kernel packet interception.
  • Built-in direct bypass and Fake-IP avoidance for Tailscale domains, permanently eliminating Tailscale and SSH timeouts.

Application Termination Synchronization Optimization

  • Introduced synchronous pre-termination cleanup, cancelling in-flight health and probe tasks immediately, cutting exit latency from 60s to < 0.5s.

Hardware & VM Matrix Verification

  • Verified across all 6 engine and routing matrix permutations in Tart VM (aether-diag-1434) with 100% pass rate and clean post-run teardown.
  • Verified on physical Apple Silicon Mac mini via remote automated test gate with 100% pass rate (TCP 8032–9670 Mbps, UDP 0 drops).

Release Information

  • This stable package uses the normal production core, is Developer ID signed and Apple double-notarized (app + dmg stapled), and contains no QA automation flags.
  • Authorized by the maintainer for stable release following real hardware and VM matrix verification.
