Architecture:

SlaveFactory ---\                  /--- Client/Browser
SlaveFactory ------[Master/Server]----- Client/Browser
SlaveFactory ---/                  \--- Client/Browser

GOAL:

• [DONE] control http client from server
• [DONE] switch between connected clients
• [DONE] stream client command output

Requirements:

• [DONE] HTTP -> TCP
• [DONE] TCP -> RPC

Potential use cases:

• distcc agent (cpu/io intensive)
• anonymous proxy endpoint (io intensive)
• crypto mining worker (cpu intensive)
• ddos attack agent (generate SYN flood, ICMP, UDP, TCP traffic)
• distributed web scraper (cpu/io intensive)
• podman/buildah/skopeo build log streaming with dind (Docker in Docker)
