Bootstrapped from the working notes of two reverse-engineering efforts: - reticulum-lora-webclient (web/Capacitor) - reticulum-mobile-app (Kotlin Multiplatform / Android) SPEC.md consolidates byte-level wire format findings that aren't in the upstream Reticulum manual. Each section grounded in upstream Python source citations (file + line) where possible. agent.md establishes the verification rules: - Every claim is verified, unverified, or speculation; markers required - Verification means a runnable script or a source citation - PRs that quietly remove markers get rejected tools/ and test-vectors/ are placeholder scaffolding with READMEs describing the work needed. Sections in SPEC.md flagged as currently UNVERIFIED: - §2.3 Originator HEADER_1 -> HEADER_2 conversion - §4.3 app_data 3-element variant with capabilities - §7.1 path? always precedes LXMF (vs only on stale paths) - §7.4 ratchet ring count default = 8 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Verifier scripts
Self-contained Python scripts that test claims in ../SPEC.md against the upstream RNS / LXMF Python stack.
Conventions
- Each script verifies one claim or one related cluster of claims.
- Exit code 0 on PASS, non-zero on FAIL.
- Print a one-line PASS/FAIL summary plus a unified diff or hex dump on mismatch.
- Reference the SPEC.md section the script verifies in a docstring at the top.
Required environment
pip install rns lxmf
The scripts read RNS.__version__ at startup and print it in their output so a future reader can tell which RNS version a verification ran against.
Status
Empty placeholder. See ../agent.md §5 for the priority order.
Initial scripts to write:
| Script | Verifies SPEC.md section |
|---|---|
verify_destination_hash.py |
§1.2 — `dest_hash = SHA256(name_hash |
verify_packet_header.py |
§2.1, §2.2 — flag byte layout + HEADER_1/HEADER_2 round-trip |
verify_announce_roundtrip.py |
§4 — announce build matches upstream Identity().announce() bytes |
verify_token_crypto.py |
§3 — Token encrypt/decrypt against upstream RNS.Cryptography.Token |
verify_lxmf_opportunistic.py |
§5.1, §5.5 — opportunistic LXMF body bytes match upstream |
verify_link_handshake.py |
§6 — LINKREQUEST + LRPROOF + session key match upstream |
verify_path_request.py |
§7.1, §7.2 — path-request payload format |
verify_msgpack_quirk.py |
§9.3 — encoding name as bytes vs str affects upstream parsing |
