DH Protocol Documentation

Hello! I'm working on a server implementation in Rust and I'd like to write a plugin for my own server to support DH clients in the same capacity that a modded server might. Before I completely get into the guts of
distant-horizons-server-plugin
distant-horizons-server-plugin
(which I understand operates with some caveats that differentiates it from a modded server), I am having some naïve hope that there might be some hidden gem of documentation that outlines the packet structure used by DH to send that information to clients. So far, I haven't found such a silver bullet.
Solution
The protocol itself is not very complicated, so you'd probably be able to understand it from reading the plugin code as well. The only complicated part is the LOD object format
