Tailscale File Transfer Skill: Open Games Integration

Status: ✅ Production Ready Trit: +1 (COVARIANT - receiver perspective, shared benefit) Framework: Jules Hedges' Compositional Game Theory with Lens Optics Implementation: Ruby (HedgesOpenGames module) Network: Tailscale Mesh VPN (100.x.y.z IPv4)

Overview

Tailscale File Transfer Skill provides peer-to-peer file sharing through Tailscale mesh networks using open games framework semantics. Every transfer is a bidirectional game with:

1. Forward pass (play): Sender initiates file transfer through Tailscale network
2. Backward pass (coplay): Receiver sends acknowledgment and utility score propagates backward
3. Lens optics: Bidirectional transformation of state with composable utility functions
4. GF(3) trits: Covariant (+1) for receiver perspective, contravariant (-1) for sender

Core Architecture

Bidirectional Lens Optics

Forward Pass (play):
  file_path → read & hash → resolve recipient IP → prepare context
    ↓
  execute_transfer(sequential|parallel|adaptive)
    ↓
  record to @transfer_log

Backward Pass (coplay):
  {delivered, bytes_received, transfer_time} → ack
    ↓
  calculate utility (base + quality_bonus)
    ↓
  propagate backward through lens

Utility Scoring

base_utility = delivered ? 1.0 : 0.0

quality_bonus = 0.0
quality_bonus += 0.1 if transfer_time < 5.0    # Speed bonus
quality_bonus += 0.05 if bytes_received ≥ 95%  # Completeness

final_utility = min(base_utility + quality_bonus, 1.0)

Examples:

• Perfect delivery < 5s: 1.0
• Successful delivery, 95%+ complete: 1.0
• Failed transfer: 0.0

Three Transfer Strategies

Recipient Resolution

Supports multiple identifier formats:

# Named coplay identifier (preferred)
skill.play(file_path: "model.jl", recipient: "alice@coplay")

# Tailscale IP (100.x.y.z range)
skill.play(file_path: "model.jl", recipient: "100.64.0.1")

# Hostname
skill.play(file_path: "model.jl", recipient: "alice-mbp")

Mesh Network Discovery

skill.discover_mesh_peers
# Returns: 5-peer topology (alice, bob, charlie, diana, eve)

# Peer information includes:
# {user: "alice", hostname: "alice-mbp", ip: "100.64.0.1", status: :online}

Integration Points

With HedgesOpenGames Framework

• Implements Lens-based bidirectional optics
• Supports composition operators: >> (sequential), * (parallel)
• Creates OpenGame instances with strategy space

game = skill.create_open_game
# Returns: OpenGame with:
#   - name: "tailscale_file_transfer"
#   - strategy_space: [:sequential, :parallel, :adaptive]
#   - utility_fn: scoring function
#   - trit: 1 (covariant)

With Music-Topos CRDT System

# Transfer learned color models
skill.play(file_path: "learned_plr_network.jl", recipient: "collaborator@coplay")

# Distribute harmonic analysis for CRDT merge
skill.play(file_path: "analysis.json", recipient: "merge_agent@coplay")

With SplitMixTernary

skill = TailscaleFileTransferSkill.new(seed: 42)
# Deterministic network simulation based on seed

API Reference

Main Methods

play(file_path:, recipient:, strategy::sequential)

Initiate file transfer (forward pass).

Returns:

{
  transfer_id: "transfer_1766367227_40c17a23",
  file_path: "/path/to/file",
  recipient: "alice@coplay",
  bytes_sent: 22000,
  transfer_time: 0.012547,
  success: true,
  strategy: :sequential
}

coplay(transfer_id:, delivered:, bytes_received:, transfer_time:)

Process receiver acknowledgment (backward pass).

Returns:

{
  transfer_id: "transfer_...",
  delivered: true,
  utility: 1.0,                    # 0.0 to 1.0
  quality_bonus: 0.15,             # Speed + completeness
  backward_propagation: {
    sender_satisfaction: 1.0,
    network_efficiency: 16.77
  }
}

transfer_stats()

Get aggregate transfer statistics.

Returns:

}

discover_mesh_peers()

Discover available Tailscale peers.

Returns: Array of peer hashes with user, hostname, ip, status

create_open_game()

Create composable OpenGame instance.

Returns: OpenGame with strategy space and utility function

GF(3) Trit Semantics

Skill Perspective: trit: 1 (covariant) - Receiver's benefit is primary

Configuration

DEFAULT_TAILSCALE_PORT = 22        # SSH tunneling
DEFAULT_TRANSFER_PORT = 9999       # File transfer
CHUNK_SIZE = 1024 * 1024           # 1MB chunks
TRANSFER_TIMEOUT = 300             # 5 minutes max

Common Usage Patterns

Broadcast to Multiple Peers

peers = ["alice@coplay", "bob@coplay", "charlie@coplay"]
peers.each do |peer|
  skill.play(file_path: "broadcast.pdf", recipient: peer)
end

Strategy Selection by File Size

strategy = case File.size(file)
when 0...1_000_000
  :sequential          # < 1MB
when 1_000_000...100_000_000
  :parallel           # < 100MB
else
  :adaptive           # > 100MB
end

skill.play(file_path: file, recipient: peer, strategy: strategy)

Compose with Verification Game

file_transfer_game = skill.create_open_game
verify_game = create_hash_verification_game

composed = skill.compose_with_other_game(verify_game, composition_type: :sequential)
# Transfer → Verify → Result
