ProtocolKindThe transport a Node speaks — tag-style names (apps rarely type this alias; they write
the literals or get inference from url / path):
"Http"—RpcClient.layerProtocolHttp(servers / CLIs)"WebSocket"— browser WS (layerProtocolWebsocket/ clientlayerProtocolSocketover WS)"IpcSocket"— Unix-domain socket (same-machine; see ipcServer)
Stamped on the node so the topology is self-describing about how to reach it — connect/client
derive the transport from it. Inferred from a ws(s):// url, an http target, or { path } →
IpcSocket; otherwise declare it explicitly.
