Responsibilities

Section titled “Responsibilities”

The forward module implements shc forward — an SSH-style port-forward that tunnels a local port through the SHC daemon to a specific service inside a running stack, on the node that owns the stack. It is the operator’s equivalent of kubectl port-forward and is used for debugging and one-off access to services that aren’t exposed through ingress.

ForwardService handles the bidirectional relay. There is no persistent state and no HTTP endpoint; the transport is internal.
