✨ What’s New

🔌 Socket.IO Proxy System (New Beta Stuff!)

A complete proxy layer that lets external services communicate with users connected to your Socket.IO server — without exposing your main server directly.

Features include:

• 🧩 User Virtualization — Each real client is mirrored as a SocketIoProxyUser, allowing remote systems to emit and listen to events as if they were directly connected.
• 📡 Event Forwarding Layer — Supports custom events, broadcast operations, room routing, and user-specific messaging.
• 🔄 Automatic State Synchronization — Connection, disconnection, and user metadata updates are streamed to proxy clients in real time.
• 🛡️ Safe Authentication Workflow — Proxy clients authenticate using the AUTH_PROXY channel before gaining access to any user interactions.
• 🧘 Optional Debug Mode — Enables deep introspection of all proxy events for troubleshooting.

This module enables advanced architectures such as:

• Remote moderation dashboards
• Bot systems
• External automation tools
• Distributed services communicating through a single gateway

🛠️ Minor Fixes and Streaming Mode Support – 2025-06-27

✅ What’s New

• 🔧 Fixed fs Import Issues
  Adjusted module imports to resolve compatibility problems with fs. This improves consistency across environments, especially when using ES Modules.

• 📡 Added rangeOnlyMode Option
  Introduced a new flag to enable bandwidth-saving behavior for streaming endpoints.
  When rangeOnlyMode is enabled, the server responds only with the requested range segment (e.g., a video or audio chunk), avoiding full file delivery.
