+- Opt-in automatic session reconnection in the Tokio managed driver and `BlockingManagedClient`. Continuous measurement runs can retry initial connection failures, failed or peer-closed sessions, and server-limited session completion. Silence detection reconnects a session that stops replying while probes are being sent.
+- Each desired target retries independently, leaving healthy targets running. Exponential backoff doubles from `reconnect_initial_delay` (default 250 ms) to `reconnect_max_delay` (default 10 s); a valid reply restores the initial delay. Reopening resolves the original endpoint again. Target removal and explicit shutdown cancel recovery.
+- Exported `VERSION` for compiled component-version reporting.
+
+#### Fixed
+
+- Stopping or replacing a target during session opening cancels the pending open immediately, instead of waiting for its retry schedule to finish.
+
+#### Compatibility
+
+- `ManagedClientConfig` gains `reconnect_timeout`, `reconnect_initial_delay`, and `reconnect_max_delay`; update complete struct literals or use `..Default::default()`. Reconnection is disabled by default (`reconnect_timeout: None`) and is valid only for continuous normal measurement mode, with a positive schedulable silence timeout. Retry delays must be positive and schedulable, and the maximum must be at least twice the initial delay.
+- `ManagedConfigError` gains `InvalidReconnectPolicy` and `InvalidReconnectDelays`; downstream exhaustive matches must handle them. Delay validation applies even when recovery is disabled.
+- A reconnecting target returns to pending/opening status rather than producing a terminal outcome for each retry. Consumers must handle repeated session-start events for the same target instance and reset session-bound statistics and sequence tracking on each new session.
+- Use `irtt-stats` 0.6 with this client version when exchanging `ClientEvent` values. Tokio remains optional; the default low-level client remains runtime-free. No wire-protocol migration is required.

+- Updated the public `irtt-client` dependency to 0.7. Applications passing `ClientEvent` values into this crate must upgrade both dependencies together; client 0.6 and 0.7 event types come from different crate versions and cannot be mixed.
+- Added signed nanosecond changes to `IpdvPairUpdate`: `rtt_ipdv_ns`, `send_ipdv_ns`, and `receive_ipdv_ns`. Existing `Duration` fields and aggregate IPDV statistics remain absolute magnitudes. Update complete struct literals to include the new fields.

+#### Fixed

+- Directional IPDV is available with midpoint timestamps, using the midpoint for both server endpoints.
+- Per-packet IPDV preserves the sign of the delay change instead of reporting only its magnitude.
+

+#### Fixed
+
+- The client now responds to SIGINT and SIGTERM while stdout is blocked, so a stalled output reader no longer prevents shutdown.
+- Interrupted measurements preserve partial statistics summaries when output can be written. A shared 250 ms grace period bounds output flushing during shutdown.
+
+### 0.10.0
+
+#### Added
+
+- Continuous CLI recovery with `--continuous --reconnect` (or `--duration 0 --reconnect`). Failed initial opens, failed or closed sessions, server-limited completion, and reply silence trigger independent per-target retries. Healthy targets keep running, including in multi-target and `--targets-stdin` runs; removing a desired target cancels its retries.
+- `--reconnect-timeout` configures reply-silence detection while sending (default 10 s). `--reconnect-initial-delay` and `--reconnect-max-delay` configure per-target exponential backoff (defaults 250 ms and 10 s); the maximum must be at least twice the initial delay. Valid replies reset the backoff. Explicit stops do not retry.
+- `--no-stats` disables client statistics collection, retention warnings, and final summaries while retaining measurement events and structured output columns. Statistics-dependent fields have absent values.
+- Optional `stats` Cargo feature, enabled by default and required by `tui`. Build a lightweight client without statistics using `cargo build --release -p irtt-rs --bin irtt-client --no-default-features --features client`; use `--features client,stats` for a client-only build with statistics.
+- `--continuous` as an explicit alias for zero duration, `-d` for duration, `-i` for interval, `-l` for packet length, client `-f` for output format, and `-v` for verbose output. Client/TUI durations accept fractional and composite values such as `2.5s` and `1m30s`.
+- Client/TUI `--timeouts` configures the session-opening attempt schedule independently of session reconnection.
+- Client `-n` / `--no-test` negotiates parameters and exits without measurement probes, using the selected output format.
+- `--version` on the dispatcher and applets; applets also report their compiled library versions and whether client statistics are disabled.
+
+#### Fixed
+
+- Signed per-packet IPDV is preserved in output; directional IPDV is available with midpoint timestamps.
+
+#### Compatibility
+
+- Reconnection is opt-in for the CLI and requires continuous measurement mode; it cannot be combined with `--no-test`. Statistics reset on every reopened session, so summaries describe only the latest session per target, not the whole continuous run. A warning explains this when recovery and statistics are both enabled. Continuous TUI recovery remains enabled as before.
+- Statistics are no longer implied by the `client` feature. Existing custom builds using `--no-default-features --features client` must add `stats` to retain collection and summaries. `--no-stats` is accepted in builds without statistics; output schemas are preserved, with absent IPDV values.
+- Nonzero duration values require units; zero (including `0s`) still selects continuous mode. `--continuous` and an explicit `--duration` are mutually exclusive.
+- Application-library users must account for the added client argument/configuration fields and optional statistics feature. Dependencies are now client 0.7 and stats 0.6, with proto >=0.5.2 and server >=0.5.4 for component-version reporting. MSRV remains Rust 1.88.
+
+### 0.9.0
+
+#### Added
+
+- Client and TUI `--bind-addr IP[:PORT]` selects a local source address and optional UDP port. Omitted ports and port `0` use an ephemeral port; IPv6 addresses with an explicit port use `[ADDR]:PORT`. The bind address must match the target's address family, and fixed ports can conflict across multiple target sockets.
+- Client and TUI `--bind-device DEVICE` binds sockets to a network interface on Linux, Android, and Fuchsia.
+- Client and TUI `--mark MARK` sets a socket firewall mark for policy routing or firewall rules on Linux, Android, and Fuchsia. It accepts decimal and `0x`-prefixed hexadecimal unsigned 32-bit values.
+- Client and TUI `--fib FIB` selects a routing table on FreeBSD, accepting a decimal unsigned 32-bit value.
+
+#### Fixed
+
+- Restored CLI compatibility with upstream IRTT for hexadecimal HMAC keys: client, TUI, and server `--hmac`, server `IRTT_SERVER_HMAC`, and client/TUI per-target `@hmac=KEY` accept a lowercase `0x` prefix followed by hexadecimal bytes, with either case allowed for digits. Literal UTF-8 keys remain supported; the HMAC-MD5 algorithm is unchanged.
+- Server argument debug output now redacts HMAC keys, matching the client and TUI. Server help hides the `IRTT_SERVER_HMAC` value, and invalid global HMAC keys are rejected during configuration preparation without echoing key material.
+
+#### Compatibility
+
+- Keys beginning with literal `0x` are now interpreted as hexadecimal. Empty keys, empty hexadecimal keys, odd-length hexadecimal strings, and invalid hexadecimal digits are rejected. Per-target `@hmac=` continues to disable authentication explicitly.

-| Statistics in continuous mode | Running count/min/max/mean/variance per target; exact medians unavailable; bounded IPDV tracking | None in streaming mode — raw/event output only, by design, to avoid unbounded memory |
-| Multi-target probing (one invocation) | Supported, with labels and staggered/burst pacing | Not supported — one remote address per invocation |
-| Terminal UI | `irtt-tui`, a live graph/dashboard applet | Not present |
-| Output formats | table, csv, tsv, jsonl, with selectable columns | Text summary, JSON (optionally gzip to file), and a fixed-field raw mode; no CSV/TSV and no column selection |
-| Client/server library API | Separate, independently versioned Rust crates (`irtt-client`, `irtt-server`) | One combined Go package exposing both roles |
-| Server: multiple listeners | `ServerSet` supervises several listeners in one process | `ListenAndServe` also serves multiple requested addresses |
-| Server: wildcard reply-source | Default behavior on Linux/macOS/FreeBSD; refused elsewhere rather than served incorrectly | Opt-in via `--set-src-ip`, with a documented per-packet allocation cost |
-| Server: zero-argument bind | Binds the wildcard address on both families by default, gated by the platform check above | Binds the wildcard address on both families by default; no documented platform gate |

-server-side fill policy (this project's server always honors a session's

+### Dynamic targets from stdin
+
+If another application decides which servers to probe, `--targets-stdin`
+lets it change targets without restarting the client. It works in
+continuous mode:
+
+```sh
+irtt-client --continuous --targets-stdin --reconnect --no-stats \
+  --format csv --columns event,target,seq,rd_us,sd_us
+```
+
+Send one comma-separated target set per line to stdin, for example:
+
+```text
+ams=ams.example:2112,lhr=lhr.example:2112
+ams=ams.example:2112
+[]
+```
+
+Each line gives the complete desired target set. Unchanged targets keep
+running, removed targets stop, and new or changed targets start. Use `[]`
+to clear all targets without exiting.
+
+The CSV includes an `event` column so your script can distinguish
+`echo_reply` measurements from other events.
+
+Keep stdin open while controlling the client. Closing it sends EOF and stops the run gracefully.
+
+See [Dynamic target sets from standard input](docs/irtt-client.md#dynamic-target-sets-from-standard-input)
+for the full syntax and behavior.

@@ -35,6 +35,21 @@ Use `ClientEvent::from(receipt)` for an `EchoSent` event with `scheduled_at` and
 `timer_error` absent; the managed driver supplies those schedule measurements
 and publishes committed sends even when post-send processing fails.
 
+Managed continuous measurement runs can opt into automatic recovery with
+`ManagedClientConfig.reconnect_timeout: Some(timeout)`. Initial connection
+failures, closed/failed sessions, server-limited completion, and reply silence
+while sending trigger independent per-target retries. `reconnect_initial_delay`
+(default 250 ms) doubles to `reconnect_max_delay` (default 10 s); a valid reply
+resets the delay. Both delays must be positive and schedulable, with the maximum
+at least twice the initial delay. Explicit stop and target removal cancel retries.
+Recovery is disabled by default and is invalid for finite or negotiation-only runs.
+
+In 0.7, complete `ManagedClientConfig` literals must include the three recovery
+fields (or use `..Default::default()`), and exhaustive `ManagedConfigError`
+matches must handle the new recovery-policy variants. A target can emit repeated
+session-start events within one instance; reset session-bound state, including
+statistics, for each reopened session. Use `irtt-stats` 0.6 with client 0.7 events.
+
 Tokio stays optional: the default build has no runtime and no Tokio
 dependency at all.

-## FINITE VERSUS CONTINUOUS OPERATION
+## Negotiation only
+
+`-n` / `--no-test` connects to each target, negotiates the requested parameters,
+and exits without sending measurement probes. For example:
+
+```sh
+irtt-client --no-test host.example:2112 --duration 30s --interval 100ms
+```
+
+On successful negotiation, the `no_test_completed` event includes the
+negotiated duration, interval, and packet length. Output format and column
+selection work as usual. The client prints no measurement summary or
+statistics-memory warning. Negotiation failures use the normal target
+diagnostics and exit policy: an uninterrupted run exits nonzero if no
+target succeeds.
+
+Duration options still specify the duration to negotiate; even with
+`--continuous` or `--duration 0`, the client exits after negotiation.
+`--no-test` cannot be combined with `--targets-stdin`.
+
+## Finite versus continuous operation
+
+`--duration` and `--interval` accept fractional and composite durations, such as
+`2.5s`, `1m30s`, and `1h`, as well as `ms`, `us` (or `µs`), and `ns` units
+(e.g. `500us` or `100ns`). A nonzero value requires a unit. The interval must
+be greater than zero; a zero test duration, including `0s`, selects continuous
+mode.
+
+`--timeouts 1s,2s,4s,8s` sets the session-opening retry schedule. Each
+comma-separated duration is the receive timeout for one open attempt; attempts
+stop when a valid open reply arrives. The list must be nonempty, with each
+value at least `200ms`, and uses the same duration syntax as `--interval`.
+Omitting the option preserves the library default schedule.
 
 `--duration` controls the run length:

-## OUTPUT
+### Optional recovery and event-only runs
+
+If you only need individual measurements, use `--no-stats` to disable
+statistics collection and final summaries. Columns that need statistics,
+such as IPDV, are unavailable. The runtime flag still leaves the
+`irtt-stats` dependency in the build.
+
+To omit statistics at compile time, build with:
+
+```sh
+cargo build --release -p irtt-rs --bin irtt-client --no-default-features --features client
+```
+
+Use `--features client,stats` to include statistics in a client-only build.
+Default builds include statistics, and `tui` always enables them. Without
+compiled statistics, `--no-stats` remains accepted, summaries and statistics
+warnings are disabled, and IPDV columns retain their names with absent values
+(`-` in tables, empty CSV/TSV fields, and JSON `null`). Measurement events and
+protocol-level received statistics remain available.
+
+Use `--reconnect` to recover individual targets in continuous mode
+(`--continuous` or `--duration 0`). The client retries failed connections,
+closed sessions, and unresponsive servers while the other targets keep
+running. By default, the delay doubles after each failed attempt, from
+250 ms up to 10 seconds. A valid reply resets it to the initial delay.
+Each target backs off independently.
+
+You can change the delays with `--reconnect-initial-delay DURATION`
+(default: `250ms`) and `--reconnect-max-delay DURATION` (default: `10s`).
+Both require `--reconnect` and must be positive and schedulable. The maximum
+must be at least twice the initial delay. For example,
+`--reconnect-initial-delay 1s --reconnect-max-delay 5s` retries after `1s`,
+`2s`, `4s`, `5s`, then `5s` from there on.
+
+`--reconnect-timeout DURATION` sets how long a session can go without valid
+replies before the client tries to reconnect (default: `10s`). It only
+applies while actively sending probes, so allow for your probe interval and
+expected packet loss.
+
+Reconnecting resets statistics for that target, so its final summary only
+covers the latest session. The client warns about this when reconnection
+and statistics collection are both enabled. Use `--no-stats` to disable
+collection and suppress the warning.
+
+For continuous CSV output from multiple targets without statistics:
+
+```sh
+irtt-client --continuous --reconnect --no-stats \
+  --reconnect-timeout 10s \
+  --reconnect-initial-delay 250ms --reconnect-max-delay 10s \
