Once Arti is more mature, we may switch to using a separate changelog for each crate. + + +# Arti 1.5.0 — 28 August 2025 + +Arti 1.5.0 continues development on important client features, +including [Counter Galois Onion][cgo] encryption, +[Conflux], [flow control and congestion control][flowctl-cc], +and onion service [proof of work][prop362]. +It also includes significant preliminary work for Arti relay support. + +Additionally, this release [mitigates][!3141] a [longstanding bug][#2079] +that could prevent Arti clients from bootstrapping. + +Arti 1.5.0 increases our MSRV (Minimum Supported Rust Version) +to 1.85, in accordance with our [MSRV policy]. + +As usual, there are also various under-the-hood improvements and bug fixes, +which are documented below. + +### Breaking changes + +- Arti now requires Rust 1.85 or later. ([#2095], [!3128], [!3145]) + +### Major bugfixes + +- We no longer count channel negotiation time against our circuit timeouts. + This may help avoid [a bug][#2079] where Arti would think that all of its + guards were failing due to a mismatch in expected circuit + construction times. ([!3141]) + +### Major features (experimental) + +- `tor-proto` now includes experimental backend support (unused, so far) for + [Conflux]-based multi-path tunnels, for improved performance and + resiliency. ([!3082]) +- Experimental support for [congestion control][flowctl-cc] for improved + performance. This is not yet enabled by default, while we perform more + testing and resolve [pending issues][#2130]. + ([!3113], [!3118], [!3131], [!3197]) +- Experimental support for [proof-of-work][prop362] in onion services, + for resistance to denial-of-service attacks. ([!3106], [!3132]) +- Experimental support for negotiating [Counter Galois Onion][cgo] + cryptography with versions of Tor that support it. + ([!3133], [prop359]) +- Arti now has experimental, incomplete support for the [`smol`] async runtime. + It is an improved replacement for [`async-std`], which will soon be + deprecated in Arti. We still recommend the [`tokio`] runtime for most users. + ([!2986], [!3194]) + +### Breaking changes in lower-level crates + +- Refactor `tor-proto` APIs to focus on _tunnels_ rather than circuits. + A tunnel may be either a Conflux multi-path bundle, or a single circuit. + A tunnel no longer has a _single_ path, but rather a collection of paths. + ([!3082]) +- Major API changes to consensus parsing and access APIs and types in + `tor-netdoc`. ([!3139], [!3164], [!3172]) +- Refactor some client-specific `tor-proto` APIs to have client-related names. + ([ebb97da7a209af06]) +- Move most functionality from `tor-proto::circuit` and `tor-proto::stream` + into `tor-proto::client`. + ([1ee26f2168ee2ded], [702e7276898d3f31], [!3193]) +- In `tor-cell`, remove the never-implemented `AUTHORIZE` cell type. ([8e9e5a2f6ff2036]) +- In `tor-cell`, remove the `ProofOfWorkV1::cap_effort()` method. ([eabd0c0bfe70333]) +- In `tor-chanmgr`, the `ChanBuilder::new()` API now takes an optional + key-manager argument. ([a187a2fef281d7da]) +- In `tor-circmgr`, the `get_or_launch_specific` API has been replaced with + tunnel-specific type launcher APIs, and + `CircuitBuilder` has been replaced with `TunnelBuilder`. + ([8333a2d7c9e48427]) +- In `tor-dirclient`, `SourceInfo::from_circuit` has been renamed to + `from_tunnel`. ([f89c0b38df232e5c8aa]) +- In `tor-hsclient`, `get_or_launch_circuit` has been renamed to + `get_or_launch_tunnel`, and the deprecated `get_or_launch_connection` + alias has been removed. ([8333a2d7c9e48427]) + +### Key manager development + +- Improved CLI output when describing keys. ([!3116], [!3143]) +- Design for a new key integrity checking subcommand. ([!3126]) +- Integration testing for `arti keys` subcommands. ([!3166]) + +### Relay development + +- Design work for a relay reactor backend. ([!3146]) +- Placeholder sketch implementation for a relay backend in `tor-proto`. + ([!3162]) +- Major refactoring to channel cell types and handling to prepare + for relay channel authentication. ([!3158], [!3173], [!3178], [!3198]) +- Revise `tor-proto` code to match correct behaviors with respect to + channel negotiation cells. ([!3174], [!3184]) + +### Directory authority development + +- Work on a new netdoc parser implementation for improved ergonomics + and macro support. + We'll use this to parse and generate vote documents, and eventually + more types of object. ([!3135], [!3180]) +- Refactor handling of different network-status types and flavors + (now collectively called "variants"), for better interaction + with future directory authority code. + ([!3139], [!3164], [!3172]) + +### Testing + +- Clean up documentation and implementation for time-mocking. + ([!3150]) +- Add tests for `create_unbootstrapped_async()`. ([#2121], [!3167]) + +### Documentation + +- Describe in-progress changes to our code submission process + as we deal with the effects of moving to a new flavor of Gitlab. + ([!3121]) +- Document why you should use `-p arti` when building arti. + ([!3134]) +- Several cleanups to website documentation for style and accuracy. + ([!3109]) +- Several cleanups to README.md for style and accuracy. ([!3115]) +- Fix comments in `ChannelCodec::encode`. ([!3155]) +- Document that memory tracking does not cover _all_ memory usage. + ([#2102], [!3165]) +- Internal documentation for `CC_XOFF_CLIENT` behavior. ([!3156]) +- Document license rationale for using `ring` rather than `aws-lc` with + `rustls`. ([!3170], [!3176]) +- Fix a link in Release.md. ([!3190]) +- Document how various protocol state machine rules in Arti are enforced. + ([prop349], [!3171]) + +### Infrastructure + +- Use a new version of [Chutney] in our CI, to get support for testing + onion services with Arti. ([bb3a2c99db37271e]) +- Tweak [Shadow] settings to avoid a flood of bug warnings from C Tor. + ([9289c00cb5a97943]) +- Adjust [Chutney] scripts and settings to bootstrap more cleanly, + with fewer warnings. ([!3149]) +- New script to generate a checklist for release tasks. ([!3125]) +- Replace dependency proxy with pull-through cache for improved + docker image rate-limiting in CI. ([!3175]) +- Use Rust 1.89 as our "recent" Rust image in CI. ([!3147]) +- Update minimum CI artifact lifetime to 1 day. ([#2064], [!3098]) +- Use the "quicktest" profile for integration testing. + What it costs in build time, it should save in runtime. ([!3157]) +- Refactor how our `check_licenses` script handles per-crate + exceptions. ([!3195]) + +### Cleanups, minor features, and bugfixes + +- Fix several warnings when compiling for Windows. ([!3114], [!3179]) +- Do not enable needless experimental features when building + the `obsf4-checker` example. ([a2d06cf94f2d0907]) +- Fix a comment format issue that was confusing vim. ([!3136]) +- Upgrade our codebase to the [2024 edition] of Rust. + ([#2101], [!3137]) +- Use several new features available with Rust 1.85. + ([#2135], [!3129], [!3138], [!3183]) +- Log errors with more report information in circuit reactors. + ([#2057], [!3122]) +- Use a newer version of [`slab`] to avoid a RUSTSEC warning. + ([!3151]) +- Refactor tunnel reactor to consolidate calls to `send_unbounded`. + ([!3154]) +- Remove outdated TODOs in `tor-hsservice`. ([bc5b3130283f0699]) +- Fix several new warnings and errors from nightly Rust. + ([#2124], [!3148], [!3169]) +- Allow our error-handling log macros (`warn_report!`, `info_report!`, etc) + to use fields in `tracing` messages. ([#2096], [#2116], [!3142]) +- Fix a few python linter warnings. ([!3168], [!3147]) +- Change format of redacted onion service IDs from `???xyz.onion` + to `[…]xyz.onion`. ([#2126], [!3177]) +- Distinguish RPC object identity types through a more sensible system. + ([!3191]) +- The "quicktest" profile now builds more quickly, + but produces less optimized binaries. + It still occupies a space between "dev" and "release". + ([4b9b53541feb8bb0]) +- Add more logs about timeout estimation and connection failures. ([!3152]) + +### Examples + +- New example showing how to use Arti as a custom + connector for use with [`hyper`]. ([49fab4945e515dc9]) +- Numerous fixes and revisions to other [`hyper`] examples. ([!2941]) + +### Acknowledgments + +Thanks to everybody who's contributed to this release, including +hashcatHitman, Jérôme Charaoui, luciole, Neel Chauhan, +Niel Duysters, thesw4rm, Omar Gorni, and Tobias Stoeckmann. + +Also, our deep thanks to +the [Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor], +and our [other sponsors] +for funding the development of Arti! + +[!2941]:
