Fix/bootnodes typos and stale peer ids#73
Merged
Conversation
Found via a 200-endpoint bootyspector sweep against this file.
Typos (multiaddr parser rejected — these entries never reached any test):
- dwellir/{asset-hub-{kusama,polkadot},bridge-hub-{kusama,polkadot},collectives-polkadot}
had a double-slash before /tcp/ (e.g. `.com//tcp/443/wss/...`).
- turboflakes/people-paseo had a peer id starting with `2D3KooW…` (missing
the leading `1`, so 51 chars instead of the standard 52).
Stale peer IDs (multiaddr-declared id ≠ running node's id, surfaced as
NegotiationError(PeerIdMismatch) during dial):
- rotko/asset-hub-paseo (both tcp and wss variants):
LzC336hvwY7… → DapKRooNM78…
- stakeplus/collectives-polkadot: BCewTdMPoXNv… → QGy6gckVQXC8…
- stakeplus/coretime-polkadot: FJ2yBTKFKYwg… → QSCbhuSKP9Am…
- stakeplus/hydration (port 30332): GZaDfqPyzVxh… → AXMAjUzkvsWq…
- stakeplus/hydration (port 31332): BJMG8LCh6pLY… → H4wfLxJ69D3n…
- stakeplus/people-kusama: RuKr3ogzXwD8… → CXp4KET4ujUk…
- dwellir/people-polkadot: LVCw68epXsdX… → KMYu1L28TkDf…
Not addressed here:
- amforc TCP endpoints fail substrate protocol negotiation with
MultistreamSelectError on every network — needs amforc-side
investigation, not a config edit.
- A handful of stakeplus / amforc / radiumblock TCP entries time out
without a specific dial-failure event; same — operator-side issue.

Comparison of `bootnodes.json` against the upstream `paritytech/chainspecs` repo found 7 WSS variants of existing operator entries that the IBP was missing. Adding them widens client transport options and gives a working fallback for operators whose TCP endpoint is currently broken (notably amforc, where TCP fails substrate negotiation but WSS works fine). | operator | network | port | |-------------|--------------------|-------| | amforc | encointer-kusama | 30333 | | stakeplus | encointer-kusama | 31332 | | dwellir | hydration | 443 | | radiumblock | hydration | 30336 | | stakeplus | paseo | 31334 | | dwellir | people-polkadot | 443 | | radiumblock | polkadot | 30335 | Each address was taken verbatim from the bootNodes array in the corresponding chainspec, so peer IDs are upstream-canonical. Not auto-applied (require curator review): - 3 stakeplus entries (collectives-polkadot, hydration, kusama) where the chainspec declared peer id disagrees with both the IBP entry and the running node — chainspec appears stale. - 2 addr_diff cases for encointer-kusama (gatotech `boot.gatotech.network` vs chainspec `boot-cr.gatotech.network`; rotko `encointer-kusama.boot.rotko.net` vs chainspec `enc14.rotko.net`) — same peer id, different DNS name. - 2 operator entries in chainspec for coretime-polkadot (dwellir, radiumblock) that the IBP doesn't list at all — may be intentional omission. - 4 paseo system parachain networks (asset-hub, bridge-hub, coretime, people) — chainspecs are symlinks into a `downloads/` directory that wasn't fetched; couldn't compare. See `bootnodes-status.md` in the bootyspector repo for the full report. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
These operators have coretime-polkadot bootnodes in `paritytech/chainspecs` but were missing from the IBP config. Both operators are already IBP members on adjacent networks (asset-hub, bridge-hub, people, polkadot), so adding their coretime entries is consistent with the rest of their membership. dwellir/coretime-polkadot: /dns/coretime-polkadot-boot-ng.dwellir.com/tcp/443/wss/p2p/12D3KooWGpmytHjdthrkKgkXDZyKm9ABtJ2PtGk9NStJDG4pChy9 /dns/coretime-polkadot-boot-ng.dwellir.com/tcp/30361/p2p/12D3KooWGpmytHjdthrkKgkXDZyKm9ABtJ2PtGk9NStJDG4pChy9 radiumblock/coretime-polkadot: /dns/coretime-polkadot-bootnode.radiumblock.com/tcp/30333/p2p/12D3KooWFsQphSqvqjVyKcEdR1D7LPcXHqjmy6ASuJrTr5isk9JU /dns/coretime-polkadot-bootnode.radiumblock.com/tcp/30336/wss/p2p/12D3KooWFsQphSqvqjVyKcEdR1D7LPcXHqjmy6ASuJrTr5isk9JU Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

These are outputs of `scripts/bootnode_coverage.py` and `scripts/probe_bootnodes.py`. Committing them means: - they go stale the moment anyone edits bootnodes.json (PRs #73 and #74 immediately invalidated both), and - every regeneration produces a noisy diff against an artefact nobody reads from the repo. Removing both files and adding them to `.gitignore`. Generate locally with the scripts when you want a current snapshot. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

After landing #73 (typo / stale peer-id fixes) and #74 (Level6 / PAsset / metaspan cleanup), bootyspector swept the current `bootnodes.json` at 60s timeout with the retry-with-jitter path; 23 multiaddrs still failed to establish a substrate-level connection on two attempts. Removing them. Going from **211 endpoints → 188 working** (89%). Breakdown of what was removed: **amforc TCP — 12 entries.** Every amforc TCP listener fails substrate protocol negotiation with `MultistreamSelectError`. WSS works on all amforc networks; TCP is consistently broken across all 12 networks they serve. Likely the TCP listeners aren't running the substrate p2p stack. **amforc/encointer-kusama — also the WSS.** Both transports failed (`tcp/30333/wss` and `tcp/30338`). The encointer-kusama WSS was the one I added from chainspec in #73; it's not reachable either. amforc loses encointer-kusama coverage entirely. **stakeplus shared-host TCP — 3 entries** on `boot.stake.plus`: asset-hub-paseo `:44333`, encointer-kusama `:36333`, paseo `:43333`. Time out with no specific dial-failure event. **radiumblock/polkadot — both transports** (`:30333` tcp, `:30335` wss). The whole `polkadot-bootnode.radiumblock.com` polkadot bootnode appears to be down; radiumblock loses polkadot coverage entirely. **radiumblock/coretime-polkadot WSS.** TCP variant works; WSS times out. **radiumblock/hydration WSS, dwellir/hydration WSS.** Both were chainspec-sourced additions (#73); both fail in practice. **radiumblock/coretime-polkadot WSS.** Same. Also removing 4 now-empty operator entries: amforc/asset-hub-paseo, stakeplus/asset-hub-paseo, amforc/encointer-kusama, radiumblock/polkadot.
