| Interface | cli malai http 3000 --public, or malai http-bridge to run a bridge. |
| Tooling | malai CLI; self-hostable http-bridge. |
| Composes with | Would have shared a free VM's HTTP port over iroh; nothing to chain while the bridge is paused. |
| Reliability | Hosted bridge is paused; the client is open source and self-hostable, which is the fallback. |
| Notes | Recorded as dead rather than deleted so the next session does not rediscover it. The pattern, an iroh relay plus a community bridge, recurs in several 2025-2026 launches and the bridge is the part that dies. Historical citation moved out of evidence because it no longer proves the present claim: 'Launch: share a dev server over P2P on the iroh stack, no signup, public bridge at kulfi.site.' (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43844500, 2025-04-30). |
