Gate 1 — Profile Infrastructure Checklist

Completed

• [x] Observed facts are independent of WPF and Npcap.
• [x] Observation windows calculate frame and sample rates.
• [x] Stable-field changes become diagnostics instead of false values.
• [x] Sample-counter wrap candidates are detected from observed sequences.
• [x] Profile definitions carry evidence status and source metadata.
• [x] Sampling basis supports samples per cycle, samples per second, and custom definitions.
• [x] Profile detection explains match, conflict, and unknown evidence.
• [x] Missing observations do not improve confidence.
• [x] Strict and compatible configuration comparison are available.
• [x] Unknown and conflicting receive traffic remains observable.
• [x] Built-in catalog contains no unverified named-profile constants.
• [x] Deterministic engine tests protect the infrastructure.
• [x] Active public documentation uses neutral engineering terminology.
• [x] CI and Pages validate public terminology neutrality.

Remaining integration

• [ ] Feed live parsed frames into the observation accumulator.
• [ ] Feed PCAP-imported frames into the same observation accumulator.
• [ ] Convert selected SCL stream models into expected configurations.
• [ ] Add compact profile confidence state to Subscriber.
• [ ] Add expandable mismatch and evidence detail.
• [ ] Add report serialization for observed facts and detection evidence.

The remaining items are integration work. They do not require profile-specific constants.
