During January 2026, Avhi focused on modernizing network protocols in the anza-xyz/agave repository by migrating TPU communication from UDP sockets to a QUIC-based implementation. This transition involved removing deprecated UDP socket bindings and related configuration, updating dashboard interfaces, and introducing compatibility placeholders to maintain legacy support. Avhi refined test infrastructure and backend systems to align with the new QUIC protocol, ensuring scalable, low-latency networking across environments. Working primarily in Rust and leveraging expertise in backend development and network programming, Avhi coordinated cross-team changes to enable a robust migration path while minimizing disruption to existing production workflows.
