Serious question, why not just use websockets? AFAIK, it's effectively a TLS socket with a little bit of handshake overhead when starting.

I'm literally working on a web interface I want to use for classic BBS door play... currently working on a DOS era EGA interface, and intend to do similar for PETSCII/Comodore64/128 play as well. I've got a couple rendering bugs to explore for ansis submitted that messed up in the viewer test mode.

It's been an opportunity to play with AI dev as well... spent as much time getting the scrollback working how I want as it took on the general rendering.
