2026-02-16 Logos storage weekly

Week 7 2026

Highlights

• Draft approach for logos-storage anonymous download using the mix protocol.
• New block exchange protocol enhancements
• Logos Storage Module headless mode support

Status Integration

• achieved:
  • final round of heavy refactorings (naming some of them, there was more):
    • a number of renamings, the most important changing the archiveId to archiveLink to remove ambiguity between archive hashe (called archiveID in status-go) and archiveLink (an network identifier for the last archive bundle, e.g. magnet link for BitTorrent and CID for LogosStorage)
    • introducing NOP pattern in ArchiveManager allowing for:
      • removing defensive checks like m.torrentConfig != nil && m.torrentConfig.Enabled - this makes code safer and way easier to understand
      • significantly simplifying life-cycle managent of the new ArchiveManager
  • improving archive cleanup and thread safety - old torrent implementation was missing out here in a couple of places
  • porting all the above changes from the branch feat/status-go-codex-integration (status-go/pull/7201) to refactor/extract-archive-service (status-go/pull/7312) - those changes are still not there at the moment of this writing but will be there by Monday 16-FEB. I expect to release the letter PR for review.
• next: For better clarity, below is what still need to happen to close the whole task of integrating LogosStorage with status-go:
  • fixing tests on status-go/pull/7312 and hopefully getting this PR merged at the beginning of the week
  • fixing the tests on status-go/pull/7201 - a bit more work as we have here more new LogosStorage tests that need adjustment after heavy refactorings
  • if things go well with status-go/pull/7312 re-basing status-go/pull/7201 on top of the develop branch
  • after re-basing updating the nix configuration
  • this will result in a mid-range small PR with just build changes
  • releasing status-go/pull/7201 for final review and merge.

Testnet filesharing client

• achieved:
  • Block exchange protocol
    • Decoupled manifest fetching from block exchange
    • Download manager and scheduler API cleanup
    • Multi-download per CID
  • Testing
    • Added local libstorage tests and replaced CI with the same ones run locally
    • Enable rest api in libstorage in debug builds
• next:
  • Block exchnage protocol
    • Rebase on latest
    • Add, cleanup and consolidate tests

AnonComm Collaboration

• achieved:
  • Continued discussion and meetings with the AnonComm team.
  • Draft approach for logos-storage anonymous download using the mix protocol.
  • Work on partial Groth16 proof generation for RLN and integration into zerokit: Added serialization, improved API, added FFI API, and tests.
• next:
  • Improve and refine on the initial approach for logos-storage anonymous download after discussions.
  • Draft hidden-services over mix approach for logos-storage anonymous publishing.

Integration with Logos Core

• achieved:
  • Contribute to the SDK by providing support for boolean argument logos-cpp-sdk/pull/17 and including the comments from the interface file into the generated header logos-cpp-sdk/pull/16.
  • Finalize the Storage Module by adding download and make it ready for the headless mode: logos-storage-module/pull/8, logos-storage-module/pull/10, logos-storage-module/pull/11, logos-storage-module/pull/12.
  • Provide a tutorial for the Storage Module logos-storage-module/pull/9.
  • Add Storage Module to the Logos modules list logos-modules/pull/17
  • Fix a bug in the package manager when the build phase is not explicitly defined: logos-package-manager-module/pull/26
  • Meeting with Aqeel to sync with the design implementation
• next:
  • Focus on design implementation
