## プロジェクトの歴史と使われ方

toxcore is the C implementation of the Tox peer-to-peer encrypted messaging protocol. The official repository describes Tox as a serverless instant messenger intended to make security and privacy easier for regular users, using libsodium-based encryption and authentication.

### プロジェクトの歴史

The current official repository is maintained under the TokTok organization and is identified on GitHub as forked from the earlier irungentoo/toxcore repository. That lineage reflects the transition from the early Tox implementation into the current TokTok-maintained C core.

The repository has treated toxcore as a low-level cryptographic networking library rather than an end-user chat client. Its README includes a prominent warning that the library is experimental, has not been independently audited by cryptography specialists, and should be used at the user's risk.

### 採用の歴史

toxcore's adoption is mostly indirect: it is the shared protocol library and bootstrap tooling that downstream Tox clients and bots build on. Homebrew packages the library and its bootstrap executables, while the source facts also show packages in Alpine, Fedora, MacPorts, and Arch/pacman.

GitHub Releases record a 'First Stable API' release at v0.1.0 in December 2016. The later changelog shows an active 0.2.x line focused on hardening, testing, ToxAV fixes, group chat work, network profiling, and preserving public API compatibility across releases.

### 使われ方

Developers embed toxcore by creating a Tox instance, registering callbacks for events such as friend requests and messages, and repeatedly calling the event-loop function `tox_iterate` at the interval returned by `tox_iteration_interval`.

For package users, the Homebrew-visible executables `DHT_bootstrap` and `tox-bootstrapd` represent toxcore's infrastructure side: maintaining bootstrap nodes and helping peers enter the decentralized Tox network rather than launching a full chat UI.

### パッケージ好きにとっての重要性

toxcore is significant to package nerds because it is a packaged C protocol library with security-sensitive dependencies, ABI/API concerns, and downstream clients. Packaging it correctly matters for encrypted-messaging clients that rely on shared system libraries instead of vendored snapshots.

The project also illustrates the package-maintainer tension around cryptographic software: widely packaged, useful to privacy-oriented users, but officially documented as experimental and unaudited.

### タイムライン

- 2016: GitHub Releases publish v0.1.0 as 'First Stable API'.
- 2024: v0.2.20 changelog includes security and ToxAV fixes.
- 2025: v0.2.21 changelog adds DNS-disable support and a network profiler.
- 2026: v0.2.22 and v0.2.23 changelog entries emphasize hardening, architectural refinement, and security fixes.

### Related projects

- The repository includes toxcore, toxav, and toxencryptsave components, and the README points readers to Tox clients, the Tox wiki, and example bots such as minitox.
