Hyper-DERP v0.2.0

[github-actions[bot]]

What's new

hyper-derp now does WireGuard.

WireGuard relay mode

Two NAT'd peers point their Endpoint = at hyper-derp; the relay forwards UDP between them. Works with stock wg, wg-quick, pfSense, and the mobile WireGuard apps — no client-side changes.

Optional XDP fast path forwards in the kernel, hitting 10.4 Gbit/s on 25 GbE bare-metal and 3.7 Gbit/s on a 4-vCPU GCP VM.

Homelab quickstart — eight copy-paste steps from a clean Debian box.

One-package install

apt install hyper-derp now ships everything you need: the operator CLI is bundled, the systemd unit comes pre-configured, and the IPC dir is set up by the postinst. Nothing else to do.

Naming

hd-cli → hdcli, hd-wg → hdwg to line up with the existing hdctl / hdcat. Pre-release rename — no compat aliases.

DERP path

Unchanged. Still drop-in compatible with Tailscale, Headscale, and any standard DERP client.
