The mutation corpus of spec 64 gains format 3: 209 cases, 169 of the
spec.
- The 33 mutations of the first two lists on format3_single and
format3_time_and_key_portable, named "format 3: ...", with a sibling
written by EncryptFiles and built capsules that hold a BODY.
- The list of format 3, 47 cases: one for each value of a line with
several (AREA_LEN 0, 511, 513 and 66048; SECURITY_LEN 0 and 513;
HEAD_LEN 0 and 2^24 + 1), and the three that open without a code,
with the verdicts X, F1 and S1. VERSION 4 is "format 3: version
changed", as in format 2. Each seals BODY again with FK_PAYLOAD and
the nonce of its fixture, and the control with the new L when L
changes; the two that need a head followed by another STREAM chunk
derive from format3_tree, whose comment takes the bytes the path
loses so that only the head and its chunk change.
- Further cases: format 3 relabeled 1, and time_and_key relabeled 2
with the identity and with the .dkk.
- A mutation may expect the capsule to open with its verdicts; the
exported case records them, with the result ok at step 0.
- Splice gives an edit for each run of changed bytes, runs closer than
16 bytes merged, and one more for what one side has beyond the
other: a head sealed again changes its bytes and the tag of its
chunk, 64 KiB apart. Earlier cases are written with more edits and
give the same capsules. The corpus is 706 KB, 476 KB of them the
capsule of 65536 implicit folders, whose head is 235 KB.

Step 2b: package codec is rewritten without reflection or struct tags. A
strict Decoder accepts only the spec §58 profile, Unmarshal decodes,
re-encodes and compares, Peek reads the type tag and version, and Walk is a
bounded iterative helper for vectors and fuzzing. Every schema has its own
hand-written encoder and decoder that checks all CDDL rules before the
fields with their own error codes. github.com/fxamacker/cbor/v2 and
github.com/x448/float16 are gone; nothing replaces them. Valid objects
encode and decode exactly as before (1.34 million differential verdicts);
the invalid-input differences are documented in CHANGELOG and
traceability decision 12. A review found and fixed an access_policy check
that truncated to uint8.
Step 3: testdata gains vectors/cbor.json (generic and per-schema CBOR
vectors), vectors/mutations.json (the 55-case mutation corpus, replayable
offline), vectors/inspect_differential.json (1,825 fixed-seed mutations
with the Go verdict) and one inspect -json golden per fixture, all
regenerated byte-identically by genfixtures and documented in
testdata/README.md for second implementations.
Gate green with 90 s of fuzzing per target on all 15 targets; codec at
100 % coverage; pre-existing testdata byte-identical.
