+# Fuzzying gmid
+
+Here are some notes on how to fuzz (some) gmid parts using afl.
+
+ - run `make -C ../../ clean` beforehand so that we compile all relevant
+   sources with afl-clang.  Then, clean again before rebuilding gmid.
+
+ - run `make fuzz-iri` to fuzz the IRI parser.
+
+ - run `make fuzz-proto` to fuzz the proxy v1 protocol parser.
