🧬 The NeckLink Fruit-Fly Brain Product Family

Every NeckLink product translates a distinct anatomical subsystem of the adult fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) into a standalone, zero-heap, zero-float ANSI C99 microcontroller library (ESP32, STM32, RP2040) paired with a clean Python package:

Why NLTP?

Standard TCP and QUIC stall on bursty wireless fades, while raw microcontroller protocols like ESP-NOW cannot cross routers/SIM cards or reassemble multi-kilobyte files when chunks drop. NLTP v1.2 bridges embedded hardware, mobile/web gateways, and cloud/shore software with a single encrypted, FEC-protected UDP wire format:

• Survives 20% Packet Loss & Bursty Fades: Systematic GF(2^8) Cauchy forward error correction (8-shard generations + incremental Gauss-Jordan decoding) reconstructs lost packets without waiting for round-trip retransmission timeouts.
• 1-RTT Bottleneck Pacing: Adaptive BBR-style delivery-rate and packet-train probing learns link capacity in a single round trip without overflowing router queues.
• One Wire Format Across 5 Platforms (ESP32 / C99 ↔ Python ↔ JavaScript/TS ↔ Java): Zero-malloc ANSI C99 (~65 KB RAM on ESP32) talks two-way (tx + rx on one UDP port) directly to Python, Node.js/Browser, and Java/Android endpoints, verified by ChaCha20-Poly1305 (256-bit AEAD), RFC 6479 replay protection, and end-to-end SHA-256 receipts (210/210 cross-language pairings verified).
• Built-In NAT & Carrier CGNAT Traversal: RFC 5389 STUN discovery, low-TTL (TTL=2) direct UDP hole-punching, keepalives, and automatic 3-second fallback to a zero-knowledge 1-port UDP relay (NLTPRelayHub).

⚡ 30-Second Quick Start

1. Python (pynltp — import nltp / import pynltp + nltp CLI)

Install on Windows, Linux, or macOS via pip:

pip install pynltp
# Or directly from GitHub:
pip install git+https://github.com/indian-aman/necklink.git

Send an out-of-line urgent command (send_reflex) and a SHA-256-verified encrypted file in 10 lines:

from nltp import NLTPServer, NLTPClient, generate_nltp_key

key = generate_nltp_key()  # 256-bit ChaCha20-Poly1305 key

with NLTPServer(("0.0.0.0", 9000), save_dir="./inbox", psk=key) as srv:
    with NLTPClient(("127.0.0.1", 9000), psk=key, max_tx_kbps=10_000) as cli:
        cli.send_reflex("ESTOP_CHECK")                 # Bypasses file queue (0 HOL blocking)
        receipt = cli.send_file("mission_log.bin")     # Cauchy FEC + SHA-256 verified
        assert receipt["verified_sha256"] is True

Or run directly from the terminal:

nltp gen-key
nltp stun
nltp serve --host 0.0.0.0 --port 9000 --psk "<KEY>" --save-dir ./inbox
nltp send-file --host <SERVER_IP> --port 9000 --psk "<KEY>" --file firmware.bin

---

2. JavaScript & TypeScript (Node.js / Browser / WebRTC)

Zero external dependencies (ESM + CommonJS + .d.ts TypeScript types + nltp/core for WebRTC / WebTransport):

npm install https://github.com/indian-aman/necklink/releases/download/v1.2.0/nltp-js-1.2.0.tgz

import { NLTPServer, NLTPClient, generateNltpKey } from 'nltp';

const key = generateNltpKey();
const srv = await NLTPServer.listen({ host: '0.0.0.0', port: 9000, psk: key, saveDir: './inbox' });
const cli = await NLTPClient.connect({ host: '127.0.0.1', port: 9000, psk: key, maxTxKbps: 10_000 });

await cli.sendReflex('ESTOP_CHECK');
const receipt = await cli.sendFile('mission_log.bin');
console.log('Verified SHA-256:', receipt.verifiedSha256);

await cli.close();
await srv.close();

---

3. Java 11+ & Android (io.necklink:nltp)

Zero external dependencies — includes portable constant-time RFC 8439 ChaCha20-Poly1305 and non-blocking NIO DatagramChannel (--release 11). Download nltp-java-1.2.0.jar or build via Maven/Gradle (java/):

import io.necklink.nltp.*;
import java.nio.charset.StandardCharsets;
import java.nio.file.Paths;

String key = NLTPWire.generateNltpKey();
try (NLTPServer srv = NLTPServer.builder().bind("0.0.0.0", 9000).psk(key).saveDir(Paths.get("./inbox")).build();
     NLTPClient cli = NLTPClient.builder().server("127.0.0.1", 9000).psk(key).maxTxKbps(10_000.0).build()) {
    cli.sendReflex("ESTOP_CHECK".getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8));
    TransferReceipt receipt = cli.sendFile(Paths.get("mission_log.bin"), 60_000L);
    assert receipt.verifiedSha256();
}

4. Arduino IDE & PlatformIO (ESP32)

• Arduino IDE (1-Click .ZIP): Download NLTP-Arduino-1.2.0.zip → Sketch → Include Library → Add .ZIP Library... → open File → Examples → NLTP (ESP32_Encrypted_Receiver, ESP32_Marine_Buoy_Sender, or ESP32_Relay_CGNAT_Node).
• PlatformIO (platformio.ini):

  lib_deps =
      https://github.com/indian-aman/necklink/releases/download/v1.2.0/NLTP-Arduino-1.2.0.zip
  

Minimal two-way encrypted ESP32 sketch (#include <NLTP.h>):

#include <WiFi.h>
#include <NLTP.h>

NLTPWiFiNode nltp;
uint8_t telemetryBatch[2048];

void setup() {
  WiFi.begin("YOUR_WIFI", "YOUR_PASS");
  while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) delay(250);

  nltp.begin(9700, "shared-256bit-key-or-passphrase");
  nltp.setPeer(IPAddress(192, 168, 1, 100), 9700);     // Python laptop / shore server
}

void loop() {
  nltp.poll();                                         // Drives both TX pacing & RX FEC decoding

  if (nltp.hasReceivedFile() && nltp.isReceivedShaOk()) {
    // Handle command/config received from Python server (nltp.receivedData(), nltp.receivedLength())
    nltp.clearReceived();
    nltp.sendBytes(telemetryBatch, sizeof(telemetryBatch), "buoy_batch.bin");
  }
}

5. Traverse 4G/5G Carrier CGNAT in 3 Commands

When both sender and receiver sit behind carrier NAT/firewalls with no public IP or port forwarding, run nltp relay on any tiny 1-port VPS (holds zero keys, sees only ChaCha20-Poly1305 ciphertext):

# 1. Public 1-port relay VM:
nltp relay --host 0.0.0.0 --port 9000

# 2. Shore receiver behind Office NAT:
nltp serve --relay <RELAY_IP>:9000 --room buoy-01 --psk "<KEY>" --save-dir ./inbox

# 3. Field / buoy sender behind 4G SIM CGNAT (Python or ESP32 beginRelay()):
nltp send-file --relay <RELAY_IP>:9000 --room buoy-01 --psk "<KEY>" --file sensor_batch.bin

---

6. Portable Zero-Heap ANSI C99 Core (csrc/)

Compiles cleanly under -std=c99 -Wall -Wextra -pedantic -Werror with zero malloc and zero floating-point operations:

make -C csrc all test
python scripts/c_interop_test.py

Direct STUN hole-punching with automatic 3-second relay fallback from the C CLI:

./csrc/build/nltp_cli recv 0.0.0.0 0 ./out.bin \
  --psk "<KEY>" --stun stun.cloudflare.com:3478 --punch --relay <RELAY_IP>:9000 --room buoy-01

./csrc/build/nltp_cli send 0.0.0.0 0 ./firmware.bin \
  --psk "<KEY>" --stun stun.cloudflare.com:3478 --punch --relay <RELAY_IP>:9000 --room buoy-01

3. NLTP v1.2 vs. ESP-NOW on ESP32 Hardware

Measured side-by-side on ESP32-D0WDQ6 (2.4 GHz Ch 11, -47 dBm, ESP-NOW v2.0, 5 runs/cell; results/esp32_espnow_vs_nltp.json).

Feature	ESP-NOW (Espressif)	NLTP v1.2 (necklink)
Network Layer & Direction	Layer 2 raw 802.11 action frames; two-way	Layer 4/7 over UDP/IP (or byte callback); two-way (tx+rx on one port)
Internet / 4G / Satellite	No — local 2.4 GHz hop only (~100–400 m; cannot cross routers or SIMs)	Yes — works over Wi-Fi routers, 4G/5G CGNAT, satellite, and marine IP radios
Direct Laptop / Cloud Link	No — ESP-to-ESP only (needs an extra USB bridge ESP32 on PC)	Yes — ESP32 talks directly to any Python laptop or Linux cloud server
Payload Size & Loss Recovery	250 B (v1) / 1,470 B (v2) per packet; no file chunking or FEC	Multi-MB files & batches; GF(2^8) Cauchy FEC + SHA-256 survives 20% loss
Encryption & Peer Limit	AES-128 CCMP, capped at 6–17 encrypted peers (20 total MAC peers)	ChaCha20-Poly1305 (256-bit) + RFC 6479 replay window; no peer-table cap
Deep-Sleep Coin-Cell Use	Wins (~1–3 ms wake-and-tx, no Wi-Fi router handshake)	Higher power — requires an active Wi-Fi / cellular IP session (~65 KB RAM)

• 18/18 Dual-NAT & Symmetric-CGNAT Suite (scripts/virtual_nat_test.py): 1 MB encrypted transfers across two separate Linux NAT routers (40 ms RTT + 5% loss on each last mile):
  • Direct STUN + low-TTL UDP hole-punching (C↔C and C↔Python): 9/9 direct P2P (1.22–2.26 s).
  • Zero-knowledge NLTPRelayHub: 3/3 (1.31–2.19 s).
  • Symmetric CGNAT (MASQUERADE --random-fully): automatic 3-second fallback to NLTPRelayHub completed in 1.80 s.
  • 4 s UDP NAT expiry across an 8 s idle gap: 1 s keepalives preserved the mapping (1.59 s second file).
