Both sides of the signal channel previously broke their recv loop on any deserialize error, which meant adding a new variant in one build silently killed signal connections from peers running an older build. This bit us during Phase 1 testing: a new client sending SignalMessage::Reflect to a pre-Phase-1 relay caused the relay to drop the whole signal connection, which looked like "Error: not registered" on the next place_call. Fix: - New TransportError::Deserialize(String) variant in wzp-proto carries serde errors as a distinct category. - wzp-transport/reliable.rs::recv_signal returns Deserialize on serde_json::from_slice failures (was wrapped in Internal). - wzp-relay/main.rs signal loop matches on Deserialize → warn + continue (instead of break). - desktop/src-tauri/lib.rs recv loop does the same. Other TransportError variants (ConnectionLost, Io, Internal) still break the loop — only pure parse failures are recoverable. This means future SignalMessage variant additions are backward- compat by construction: older peers will see "unknown variant, continuing" in their logs while newer peers can keep evolving the protocol.

Architecture
See docs/ARCHITECTURE.md for the full system architecture with Mermaid diagrams covering:
- System overview and data flow
- Crate dependency graph (8 crates)
- Wire formats (MediaHeader, MiniHeader, TrunkFrame, SignalMessage)
- Cryptographic handshake (X25519 + Ed25519 + ChaCha20-Poly1305)
- Identity model (BIP39 seed, featherChat compatible)
- Quality profiles (GOOD/DEGRADED/CATASTROPHIC)
- FEC protection (RaptorQ with interleaving)
- Adaptive jitter buffer (NetEq-inspired)
- Telemetry stack (Prometheus + Grafana)
- Deployment topology
Features
- 3 quality tiers: Opus 24k (28.8 kbps) / Opus 6k (9 kbps) / Codec2 1200 (2.4 kbps)
- RaptorQ FEC: Recovers from 20-100% packet loss depending on tier
- E2E encryption: ChaCha20-Poly1305 with X25519 key exchange
- Adaptive jitter buffer: EMA-based playout delay tracking
- Silence suppression: VAD + comfort noise (~50% bandwidth savings)
- ML noise removal: RNNoise (nnnoiseless pure Rust port)
- Mini-frames: 67% header compression for steady-state packets
- Trunking: Multiplex sessions into batched datagrams
- featherChat integration: Shared BIP39 identity, token auth, call signaling
- Prometheus metrics: Relay, web bridge, inter-relay probes
- Grafana dashboard: Pre-built JSON with 18 panels
