feat(host): GameStream/Moonlight compat is now opt-in (--gamestream) — secure native-only by default
Follows the security audit (#5/#9): the GameStream-compat plane carries inherent on-path weaknesses
that can't be fixed on the wire without breaking stock Moonlight — its pairing runs over plain HTTP
(#9, MITM-able during the pairing window) and its legacy control encryption can reuse GCM nonces (#5,
a passive eavesdropper can recover/forge input). The native punktfunk/1 plane (SPAKE2 PIN pairing +
per-direction AEAD nonces) has neither. So flip the default to secure-by-default:

- `serve`              → native punktfunk/1 plane + management API ONLY (no GameStream surface).
- `serve --gamestream` → ALSO the GameStream/Moonlight-compat planes (nvhttp pairing, RTSP, ENet
  control, _nvstream mDNS). Opt-in, logged with a trusted-LAN caveat. `--moonlight` is an alias.
- The native plane is now ALWAYS on in `serve` (`--native` is a kept-for-compat no-op); the unified
  GameStream+native host is `serve --gamestream`.

`gamestream::serve` gates the GameStream spawns (nvhttp/rtsp/control/mdns) on the flag; the native
plane + mgmt + native-pairing handle always run.

To avoid silently regressing validated Moonlight deployments, the explicit deployment configs PRESERVE
Moonlight via `--gamestream` (each documents dropping it for a secure native-only host): the Linux
systemd unit, the Steam Deck installer, and the Windows service default (DEFAULT_HOST_CMD). The bare
`serve` default (new/manual use) is secure.

Docs swept to match (host-cli, moonlight, quickstart, install, packaging READMEs, CLAUDE.md, README,
…): Moonlight setup now instructs `--gamestream`; native/console refs use bare `serve`. OpenAPI
regenerated (a stale "run `serve --native`" string). fmt + clippy clean; 94 host tests green.

punktfunk-host — Debian/Ubuntu package (apt)

punktfunk-host is published as a .deb to Gitea's Debian package registry in the public unom org, so the Ubuntu hosts update with plain apt. CI (.gitea/workflows/deb.yml) builds and publishes on every push to main (a rolling 0.2.0~ciN.g<sha> build) and on host-v* tags (a clean X.Y.Z) — the rolling builds outrank the stray 0.1.1, so plain apt upgrade always gets the latest (no version pin needed).

The same workflow also publishes punktfunk-web (the browser management console — pairing + status) and punktfunk-client (the GTK4 couch/Deck client). punktfunk-host Recommends punktfunk-web, so a default apt install punktfunk-host pulls the console too (alongside the udev/sysctl bits) unless you've disabled weak deps; punktfunk-client is independent — install it on the box you stream to. (punktfunk-probe is the headless reference/test tool, not packaged here.)

Package layout mirrors the Fedora RPM (../rpm/punktfunk.spec): the host binary, the /dev/uinput udev rule, the systemd user unit, headless session helpers, the example config, and the OpenAPI doc. Runtime Depends are computed by dpkg-shlibdeps from the binary itself (built in the Ubuntu 26.04 rust-ci image, so the lib soname package names match the target). The NVIDIA driver (libnvidia-encode / libEGL_nvidia / libcuda) is not a dependency — it's installed out of band, like on the RPM side.

Install on a host (one-time)

The registry is public, so no apt auth is needed — just trust the repo's signing key:

sudo install -d -m 0755 /etc/apt/keyrings
curl -fsSL https://git.unom.io/api/packages/unom/debian/repository.key \
  | sudo tee /etc/apt/keyrings/punktfunk.asc >/dev/null

echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/punktfunk.asc] https://git.unom.io/api/packages/unom/debian stable main" \
  | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/punktfunk.list

sudo apt update
sudo apt install punktfunk-host

Then, as the desktop user:

sudo usermod -aG input "$USER"          # virtual gamepads (re-login to take effect)
mkdir -p ~/.config/punktfunk
cp /usr/share/punktfunk-host/host.env.example ~/.config/punktfunk/host.env   # then edit
systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-host
# Web console — enable it and read the auto-generated login password (then open http://<host-ip>:3000):
systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-web
journalctl --user -u punktfunk-web-init | sed -n 's/.*password generated: //p'

Firewall

Open the ports the host listens on. The native punktfunk/1 plane:

  • QUIC control plane: UDP 9777 (serve --native-port N to change).
  • Data plane: an ephemeral UDP port — negotiated per session, so there is no fixed port to open. For a restrictive firewall you'd need to allow a UDP range (the repo does not pin one).

And the GameStream / Moonlight ports (fixed) — only needed if you run the host with serve --gamestream (opt-in, trusted LAN only); bare serve is native-only and doesn't open these:

Port Proto Purpose
47984 TCP HTTPS nvhttp (paired, mutual-TLS)
47989 TCP HTTP nvhttp (/serverinfo, /pair PIN flow)
48010 TCP RTSP handshake
4799848010 UDP Video RTP (+ FEC), ENet control (47999), audio (48000)
5353 UDP mDNS auto-discovery

The mgmt API (TCP 47990) binds to loopback by default — leave it closed unless you move it off loopback with --mgmt-bind IP:PORT (which then requires --mgmt-token).

With ufw:

sudo ufw allow 9777/udp                                 # punktfunk/1 control plane
sudo ufw allow 47984/tcp && sudo ufw allow 47989/tcp && sudo ufw allow 48010/tcp
sudo ufw allow 47998:48010/udp
sudo ufw allow 5353/udp
# plus the ephemeral punktfunk/1 data port — open a UDP range you reserve for it.

With raw nftables (add to your inet filter input chain):

udp dport 9777 accept                  # punktfunk/1 control plane
tcp dport { 47984, 47989, 48010 } accept
udp dport { 47998-48010, 5353 } accept
# plus the ephemeral punktfunk/1 data port (a reserved UDP range).

Updates

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade        # picks up the newest published build
systemctl --user restart punktfunk-host    # if the unit was already running

Build a .deb locally

VERSION=0.0.1 bash packaging/debian/build-deb.sh   # -> dist/punktfunk-host_0.0.1_amd64.deb

Needs dpkg-dev (dpkg-shlibdeps, dpkg-deb). It builds the release binary first if missing. Build it in the rust-ci image (or on an Ubuntu 26.04 box) so the resolved Depends match the hosts; building on a GPU box is fine — the NVIDIA driver lib is filtered out either way.
