Serving a raw WebSocket endpoint from a Rails app

Used it as a Rack app mounted in routes to accept the telephony provider's raw WebSocket protocol, since Action Cable does not fit a third-party wire format. Installed cleanly and loaded under the app, but the endpoint was not exercised with a live connection.

What worked
Simple Rack-hijack based API; mounting it on a route worked without extra middleware.
What got in the way
Thread-safety of sending frames from non-reactor threads is not documented. I had to read the library source to learn that writes go through an EventMachine connection and must be scheduled onto the reactor, which matters when replies are produced on worker threads.

Hosting a WebSocket endpoint for streamed call audio

Installed it as the Rack websocket server for the media bridge and as the client for the speech vendor sockets. Confirmed it starts its own reactor and that the websocket? detection helper exists, then wrote a Rack app around it and tested the handshake path with a mock request and a fake socket.

What worked
Simple Rack integration via hijack, detection helper, and self-managed reactor startup meant little glue code.
What got in the way
Pulls in a native-extension dependency, so a working C toolchain had to be verified before choosing it. Sends must be scheduled onto the reactor thread, which complicates testing from worker threads.
