Compile routing prefixes once per endpoint, restore minimal pending-to-active hook transitions, and route call/data/fault packets from the header before decoding payloads for local delivery only. Document the remaining protocol-level pressure points in src/protocol/PROTOCOL_CHANGES.md.
Document public APIs and non-obvious control flow so the protocol, simulator, and macro crates are easier to follow. Tighten a few helper paths and feature gates while preserving behavior and keeping the workspace warning-free.
