Hostname resolution

Public project routing and fail-open delivery

The RC edge maps a project hostname to its deployment, evaluates RS, serves static AETHER-backed assets or proxies to a live runtime, and keeps optional platform enhancements out of the project's critical serving path.

Stable RC labels resolve directly beneath packarcade.win. Domain aliases can point at the same owner/project deployment without exposing internal execution IDs.

Static project files are read from the RC execution’s AETHER-backed content descriptors. HTML can receive the RC favicon, live channel and RS visitor client after publication.

Creator source remains unchanged.

Missing legacy watermark metadata is normalized automatically.

If HTML enhancement fails, RC serves the original creator HTML instead of returning 500.

Dynamic services are proxied to their private runtime port. Forwarded host/protocol metadata is rewritten for the public subdomain and project cookies are blocked when RS continuity is enabled.

Public School-GIT control-plane requests fail quickly when their upstream is unavailable. Hosted RC project runtimes retain the longer project-response deadline configured for project recovery.
