# VoiceCat
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Self-hosted, native voice & text chat in the spirit of classic TeamSpeak / Mumble —
|
|
|
|
|
|
channel-based voice, channel + private text, one server you run yourself. Plain **TCP**
|
|
|
|
|
|
(control) and **UDP** (media), no WebRTC. Encrypted by default. A shared **C++ core**
|
|
|
|
|
|
(`libvoicecat`) drives native clients (Swift on macOS/iOS, C# on Windows) and the server.
|

build(cmake): clean up presets, add release/apple presets, cross-platform triplets
Rationalize the preset set to match the project's actual state (past M5):
- Rename dev->skeleton (no-deps stub smoke), m1-dev->dev (default dev preset)
- Drop m2-dev (cache-identical to m1-dev)
- Add release preset (optimized + tests on, symbols kept)
- Strip server-release binaries (-s linker flag)
- Add apple-dev/apple-ios/apple-ios-sim scaffolding presets for XCFramework
Add cmake/voicecat-toolchain.cmake wrapper that auto-resolves the vcpkg
triplet from the host platform (x64-mingw-static/x64-linux/arm64-osx) so
the main presets work on Windows/Linux/macOS without per-OS variants.
Update all docs (building.md, CLAUDE.md, README.md, AGENTS.md, deployment.md,
tech-stack.md, client READMEs) and stale preset-name references in code
comments. No C++ behavior changes — the core was already portable.

## Read the design first

|
|

The [`docs/`](docs/) folder is the source of truth. Start at [`docs/README.md`](docs/README.md),
|
|
|
|
|
|
then `architecture` → `protocol` → `voice` → `security` → `tech-stack` → `deployment` →

`roadmap`.

with real vcpkg deps. It works on Windows, Linux, and macOS (vcpkg triplet auto-resolved).

- .gitattributes (LF), .gitignore, .clang-format
Core (libvoicecat):
- core/include/voicecat.h: full C ABI (the client/server contract), stubbed
- core/proto/voicecat.proto: control-plane wire format, matches docs/protocol.md
- src/{net,crypto,codec,protocol,session,audio,core}: subsystem stubs that
return VC_ERR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED, each pointing to its design doc
- server/ (voicecat-server) and tools/vccli/ link the core
- tests/: CTest smoke test asserting the C ABI contract (behavior, not just build)
- clients/{apple,windows}: M4 placeholders
Onboarding for agents:
- CLAUDE.md: hub — build/test commands, architecture at a glance, doc map, rules
- AGENTS.md: working method (behavior-driven; clean compile is the floor not the goal)
- PROGRESS.md: living tracker — M0 done, M1 task checklist, "where we left off"
Verified: cmake --preset dev && cmake --build --preset dev && ctest --preset dev → green.

|

```
|

|
|
|
docs/ design spec (read this)
|
|
|
|
|
|
core/ libvoicecat — the shared C++ core
|
|
|
|
|
|
include/ voicecat.h (the C ABI all clients call)
|
|
|
|
|
|
proto/ voicecat.proto (control-plane wire format, source of truth)
|
|
|
|
|

src/ net/ crypto/ codec/ protocol/ session/ audio/ (stubs today)
|
|
|
|
|

server/ voicecat-server (headless; links the core)
|
|
|
|
|
|
tools/vccli/ headless test client — drives the protocol from M1 on
|
|
|
|
|
|
clients/ apple/ (Swift, M4) windows/ (C#, M4) — placeholders for now
