add unix Socket support to MetricsPort
tor recently got support for MetricsPort
in v0.4.5.1-alpha (#40063 (closed)).
According to the man page MetricsPort does not support unix sockets (like SocksPort or ControlSocket).
Using a socket allows for better access control than for example binding it to localhost and only allowing localhost in MetricsPortPolicy because that would allow any local process to access it.
To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have admin enable hashed storage. More information
