hello everybody.
I'm trying to build a mobile authenticator using fido2.2.
the protocol list 2 optional relays to communicate with the client platform.
but when im trying to connect through a websocket it says that the connection is not upgraded to websocket.
i tried to use the code from the docs (image attached) and im getting "bad handshake". is there anyone who tried it and can help me?

thanks in advance!

Hybrid transport (and CTAP in general) is implemented by the mobile platform and not something you implement in your application. If you are trying to build a software-based passkey authenticator on mobile, you need to create a passkey provider app that interfaces with the platform using the appropriate system APIs (Android | iOS

Tim is correct, but also note that an authenticator owns its tunnel service. So cable.ua5v.com is specific to the hybrid implementation in Chrome on Android and Play Services. Apple devices use a different tunnel service and, if there was a different mobile OS that wanted to be an authenticator,  it would need its own tunnel service.
