2026-07-30 — module updates

Hypercore — v11.34.0–v11.35.1

Changed (v11.34.0): the tree-node proof cache is enabled, cutting repeated proof work for peers that serve many connections.
Added (v11.35.0): a manifest can be supplied as a raw buffer.
Fixed (v11.35.1): the idle range-completion scan.
Fixed (v11.34.1): the latest batch is always selected.

Hyperdrive — v13.3.3

Fixed: drive.download() and drive.has() silently stalled or fetched the wrong data for entries written with dedup: true. Those entries store blobs as a non-contiguous block map rather than a contiguous range, and the contiguous form was being used for every entry. downloadDiff() had the same bug.

HyperDHT — v6.33.0

Fixed: relayed server connections now inherit connectionKeepAlive the way direct sockets already did, and a relay-to-direct upgrade sends an explicit handoff packet so the peer observes the direct path before the relay is torn down.
Fixed: a LAN shortcut no longer blocks hole-punch fallback, and relay sockets close once a direct connection is established.
Removed: the internal global.Pear reference, following the Pear v3 removal of the ambient Pear API.

Corestore — v7.12.0, v7.11.1

Changed (v7.12.0): suspend() no longer performs an implicit flush. Write-ahead-log filtering makes reopening cheap, so the flush is no longer needed on every suspend.
Added (v7.11.1): a treeCache option for tuning Hypercore's tree-node cache—raise maxSize on peers that serve more connections than usual.
