+```
+
+Per-hop pool: `pool` = listener default, `pool:name` = explicit pool,

+
+## Bypass Rules (config)

+  - listen: 0.0.0.0:1080
+    bypass:
+      - 127.0.0.0/8        # CIDR

+      - pool
+```
+
+| Pattern | Type | Matches |
+|---------|------|---------|
+| `10.0.0.0/8` | CIDR | IPs in network |
+| `127.0.0.1` | Exact IP | That IP only |
+| `localhost` | Exact host | String equal |
+| `.local` | Suffix | `*.local` and `local` |
+
+## Listener Authentication (config)
+
+```yaml
+listeners:
+  - listen: 0.0.0.0:1080
+    auth:
+      alice: s3cret
+      bob: hunter2
+    chain:
+      - socks5://127.0.0.1:9050
+      - pool
+```
+
+```bash
+curl -x socks5h://alice:s3cret@127.0.0.1:1080 https://example.com
+```
+
+No `auth:` key = no authentication required (default).
+
+## Listener Retry Override (config)
+
+```yaml
+listeners:
+  - listen: 0.0.0.0:1080
+    retries: 5                               # override global retries
+    chain:
+      - socks5://127.0.0.1:9050
+      - pool
+  - listen: 0.0.0.0:1082
+    chain:
+      - socks5://127.0.0.1:9050             # 0 = use global default
+```
+
+Per-listener `retries` overrides the global `retries` setting. Set to 0 (or
+omit) to inherit the global value.
+
+## Pool Protocol Filter (config)
+
+```yaml
+proxy_pools:
+  socks_only:
+    allowed_protos: [socks5]                 # reject http proxies
+    sources:
+      - url: http://api:8081/proxies/all
+```
+
+When set, proxies not matching `allowed_protos` are silently dropped during
+merge. Useful when a source returns mixed protocols but the pool should
+only serve a specific type.
+
+## Multi-Tor Round-Robin (config)
+
+```yaml

+## Multi-Tor Round-Robin
+
+Distribute traffic across multiple Tor nodes instead of funneling everything
+through a single one. When `tor_nodes` is configured, the first hop in each
+listener's chain is replaced at connection time by round-robin selection.
+Health tests also rotate across all nodes.
+
+```yaml
+tor_nodes:
+  - socks5://10.200.1.1:9050
+  - socks5://10.200.1.254:9050
+  - socks5://10.200.1.250:9050
+  - socks5://10.200.1.13:9050
+```
+
+When `tor_nodes` is absent, listeners use their configured first hop as before.
+When present, `tor_nodes` overrides the first hop everywhere.
+
+If `pool_size > 0`, pre-warmed connection pools are created for all nodes
+automatically.
+
+### API
+
+`tor_nodes` appears in both `/config` and `/status` responses:
+
+```bash
+curl -s http://127.0.0.1:1090/config | jq '.tor_nodes'
+curl -s http://127.0.0.1:1090/status | jq '.tor_nodes'
+```
+
+## Named Proxy Pools
+
+Define multiple proxy pools with different source filters. Each listener can
+reference a specific pool by name via the `pool:` key.
+
+```yaml
+proxy_pools:
+  clean:
+    sources:
+      - url: http://10.200.1.250:8081/proxies/all
+        mitm: false
+    state_file: /data/pool-clean.json
+    refresh: 300
+    test_interval: 120
+    test_timeout: 8
+    max_fails: 3
+  mitm:
+    sources:
+      - url: http://10.200.1.250:8081/proxies/all
+        mitm: true
+    state_file: /data/pool-mitm.json
+    refresh: 300
+    test_interval: 120
+    test_timeout: 8
+    max_fails: 3
+```
+
+Each pool has independent health testing, state persistence, and source
+refresh cycles. The `mitm` source filter adds `?mitm=0` or `?mitm=1` to
+API requests.
+
+### Pool protocol filter
+
+Use `allowed_protos` to restrict a pool to specific proxy protocols.
+Proxies not matching the list are silently dropped during merge, regardless
+of source type (API or file).
+
+```yaml
+proxy_pools:
+  socks_only:
+    allowed_protos: [socks5]     # reject http/socks4 proxies
+    sources:
+      - url: http://api:8081/proxies/all
+  any_proto:
+    sources:
+      - url: http://api:8081/proxies/all   # no filter, accept all
+```
+
+Valid values: `socks5`, `socks4`, `http`. Visible in `/config` API response
+when set.
+
+### Backward compatibility
+
+The singular `proxy_pool:` key still works -- it registers as pool `"default"`.
+If both `proxy_pool:` and `proxy_pools:` are present, `proxy_pools:` wins;
+the singular is registered as `"default"` only when not already defined.
+
+## Multi-Listener Mode
+
+Run multiple listeners on different ports, each with a different number
+of proxy hops and pool assignment. Config-file only (not available via CLI).
+
+```yaml
+listeners:
+  - listen: 0.0.0.0:1080

+      - pool                                 # Tor + 2 MITM proxies
+      - pool
+```
+
+### Per-hop pool references
+
+Use `pool:name` to draw from a specific named pool at that hop position.
+Bare `pool` uses the listener's `pool:` default. This lets a single listener
+mix pools in one chain.
+
+```yaml
+listeners:
+  - listen: 0.0.0.0:1080
+    pool: clean                              # default for bare "pool"
+    chain:
+      - socks5://10.200.1.13:9050
+      - pool:clean                           # explicit: from clean pool
+      - pool:mitm                            # explicit: from mitm pool
+
+  - listen: 0.0.0.0:1081
+    pool: clean
+    chain:
+      - socks5://10.200.1.13:9050
+      - pool                                 # bare: uses default "clean"
+      - pool:mitm                            # explicit: from mitm pool
+```
+
+| Syntax | Resolves to |
+|--------|-------------|
+| `pool` | Listener's `pool:` value, or `"default"` if unset |
+| `pool:name` | Named pool `name` (case-sensitive) |
+| `pool:` | Same as bare `pool` (empty name = default) |
+| `Pool:name` | Prefix is case-insensitive; name is case-sensitive |
+| `[pool:a, pool:b]` | Random choice from candidates `a` or `b` per connection |
+
+The `pool` keyword in a chain means "append a random alive proxy from the
+assigned pool". Multiple `pool` entries = multiple pool hops (deeper chaining).
+
+### Multi-candidate pool hops
+
+Use a YAML list to randomly pick from a set of candidate pools at each hop.
+On each connection, one candidate is chosen at random per hop (independently).
+
+```yaml
+listeners:
+  - listen: 0.0.0.0:1080
+    chain:
+      - socks5://10.200.1.13:9050
+      - [pool:clean, pool:mitm]              # hop 1: random choice
+      - [pool:clean, pool:mitm]              # hop 2: random choice
+```
+
+Single-element pool references (`pool`, `pool:name`) and multi-candidate
+lists can be mixed freely in the same chain. All existing syntax is unchanged.
+
+When `pool:` is omitted on a listener with pool hops, it defaults to
+`"default"`. A listener referencing an unknown pool name causes a fatal
+error at startup. Listeners without pool hops ignore the `pool:` key.
+
+| Resource | Scope | Notes |

+| TorController | shared | One Tor instance |
+| Metrics | shared | Aggregate stats across listeners |

+
+## Listener Authentication
+
+Per-listener SOCKS5 username/password authentication (RFC 1929). When `auth`
+is configured on a listener, clients must authenticate before connecting.
+Listeners without `auth` continue to accept unauthenticated connections.
+
+```yaml
+listeners:
+  - listen: 0.0.0.0:1080
+    auth:
+      alice: s3cret
+      bob: hunter2
+    chain:
+      - socks5://127.0.0.1:9050
+      - pool
+```
+
+### Testing with curl
+
+```bash
+curl --proxy socks5h://alice:s3cret@127.0.0.1:1080 https://example.com
+```
+
+### Behavior
+
+| Client offers | Listener has `auth` | Result |
+|---------------|---------------------|--------|
+| `0x00` (no-auth) | yes | Rejected (`0xFF`) |
+| `0x02` (user/pass) | yes | Subnegotiation, then accept/reject |
+| `0x00` (no-auth) | no | Accepted (current behavior) |
+| `0x02` (user/pass) | no | Rejected (`0xFF`) |
+
+Authentication failures are logged and counted in the `auth_fail` metric.
+The `/status` API endpoint includes `"auth": true` on authenticated listeners.
+The `/config` endpoint shows `"auth_users": N` (passwords are never exposed).
+
+### Mixed listeners
+
+Different listeners can have different auth settings:
+
+```yaml
+listeners:
+  - listen: 0.0.0.0:1080        # public, no auth
+    chain:
+      - socks5://127.0.0.1:9050
+  - listen: 0.0.0.0:1081        # authenticated
+    auth:
+      alice: s3cret
+    chain:
+      - socks5://127.0.0.1:9050
+      - pool
+```
+
+## Bypass Rules
+
+Per-listener rules to skip the chain for specific destinations. When a target
+matches a bypass rule, s5p connects directly (no chain, no pool hops).
+
+```yaml
+listeners:
+  - listen: 0.0.0.0:1080
+    bypass:
+      - 127.0.0.0/8          # CIDR: loopback
+      - 10.0.0.0/8           # CIDR: RFC 1918
+      - 192.168.0.0/16       # CIDR: RFC 1918
+      - fc00::/7             # CIDR: IPv6 ULA
+      - localhost             # exact hostname
+      - .local               # domain suffix (matches *.local and local)
+    chain:
+      - socks5://127.0.0.1:9050
+      - pool
+```
+
+### Rule syntax
+
+| Pattern | Type | Matches |
+|---------|------|---------|
+| `10.0.0.0/8` | CIDR | Any IP in the network |
+| `127.0.0.1` | Exact IP | That IP only |
+| `localhost` | Exact hostname | String-equal match |
+| `.local` | Domain suffix | `*.local` and `local` itself |
+
+CIDR rules only match IP addresses, not hostnames. Domain suffix rules only
+match hostnames, not IPs. Exact rules match both (string compare for hostnames,
+parsed compare for IPs).
+
+When bypass is active, retries are disabled (direct connections are not retried).
+
+### Backward compatibility
+
+When no `listeners:` key is present, the old `listen`/`chain` format creates
+a single listener. If `proxy_pool` is configured without explicit `pool` in
+the chain, legacy behavior is preserved (1 pool hop auto-appended).
+
+Settings that require a restart: `listeners`, `listen`, `chain`, `pool_size`,
+`pool_max_idle`, `api_listen`.

+#### `POST /tor/newnym`
+
+Request new Tor circuit (NEWNYM signal).
+
+```bash
+curl -s -X POST http://127.0.0.1:1081/tor/newnym | jq .
+```
+
+```json
+{"ok": true}
+```
+
+Returns `{"ok": false, "reason": "rate-limited or not connected"}` when the
+signal cannot be sent. Returns `{"error": "tor control not configured"}` (400)
+when Tor control is not configured.
+
+#### Error responses
+
+All endpoints return errors as JSON with appropriate HTTP status codes:
+
+| Status | Meaning | Example |
+|--------|---------|---------|
+| 400 | Bad request | `{"error": "no proxy pool configured"}` |
+| 404 | Unknown path | `{"error": "not found"}` |
+| 405 | Wrong method | `{"error": "use GET for /status"}` |
+| 500 | Server error | `{"error": "reload not available"}` |

+### Per-listener retry override
+
+Each listener can override the global `retries` setting. Set `retries` on
+a listener to use a different retry count for that port. A value of 0 (or
+omitting the key) inherits the global setting.
+
+```yaml
+retries: 3                      # global default
+
+listeners:
+  - listen: 0.0.0.0:1080
+    retries: 5                  # deep chain: more retries
+    chain:
+      - socks5://127.0.0.1:9050

+    chain:
+      - socks5://127.0.0.1:9050  # Tor only: uses global retries=3
+```
+
+The effective retry count for a listener is `listener.retries` if set,
+otherwise `config.retries`. Visible in `/config` and `/status` API responses
+when overridden.

+### `/metrics` OpenMetrics endpoint
+
+`GET /metrics` returns all counters, gauges, pool stats, and latency summaries
+in OpenMetrics format (see [API Reference](#get-metrics) above). Use `/status`
+for the JSON equivalent with aggregate data.
+
+### Per-listener latency
+
+Each listener tracks chain setup latency independently. The `/status`
+endpoint includes a `latency` field on each listener entry:
+
+```json
+{
+  "listeners": [
+    {
+      "listen": "0.0.0.0:1080",
+      "chain": ["socks5://10.200.1.13:9050"],

+      "latency": {"count": 500, "p50": 1800.2, "p95": 8200.1, "...": "..."}
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+The aggregate `latency` in `/metrics` combines all listeners. Use
+`listener_latency` or the per-listener `latency` in `/status` to
+isolate latency by chain depth.
