QUIC Identify Probe

A lightweight command-line diagnostic tool for probing libp2p peers over QUIC. It dials a target multiaddress, runs the identify protocol, and prints the remote peer's identity information to stdout.

What It Does

1. Generates a throwaway Ed25519 keypair as the local identity
2. Dials the specified peer over QUIC
3. Waits for the remote peer to respond with an Identify message (up to 20 seconds)
4. Prints the peer's identity details and exits

Output

On success, the tool prints the remote peer's:

• Peer ID
• Protocol version
• Agent version
• Observed address
• Listen addresses
• Supported protocols
• Public key type

Diagnostic/progress messages (dialing, connection events, ping events) are written to stderr, while the final identify result is written to stdout.

Usage

cargo run -- /ip4/<node_public_ip>/udp/<swarm_port>/quic-v1
