Changes
Changed
- FIPS status now distinguishes fallback mesh/relay transport from background
direct UDP probing, including native app state and nvpn status --json.
Fixed
- FIPS direct paths now behave like retryable candidates instead of sticky
privileged routes: link-dead UDP paths schedule quick reprobes, fresh discovered candidates can outrank stale static hints, and fallback mesh keeps traffic flowing without suppressing direct upgrades.
- Mobile-hotspot NAT flaps no longer turn one or two direct liveness failures
into long Nostr traversal cooldowns that pin a peer to mesh.
