v1.2 Extended Protocol Coverage (In Progress)
Milestone Goal: Expand traffic classification with grouped protocol families that share recognizable sound signatures — from 14 classes to ~35, organized into frequency bands by family.
- Phase 8: Test and Constant Cleanup - 1 plan — Remove stale constants and update test bounds that would block all subsequent v1.2 work (completed 2026-03-27)
- Phase 9: Frequency Design and Group Architecture - 2 plans — Design complete Hz allocation for all ~35 classes in family bands and add Group field to FreqConfig
- Phase 10: Classification Layer - 2 plans — Add 21 new TrafficClass constants, 30 port rules, and test coverage for all new protocol families (completed 2026-03-27)
- Phase 11: Synthesis and Config Layer - Add ClassFreqConfigs entries for all new classes, update auto-assign range, and add group-header output to --print-config
Phase Details
Phase 8: Test and Constant Cleanup
Goal: Pre-existing test assertions and a stale exported constant that would block or mislead all subsequent v1.2 work are removed Depends on: Phase 7 Requirements: CLEAN-01 Success Criteria (what must be TRUE):
go test ./...passes on main with no modifications to the new v1.2 code path- The stale
NumLayers/GainPerLayerexported constant no longer exists in the synth package — callers cannot accidentally use it TestFrequenciesInRangeaccepts the new extended Hz range without manual test surgery when new classes are added in Phase 10 Plans: 1/1 plans complete Plans:
- 08-01-PLAN.md — Delete stale constants, future-proof test bounds, rename/consolidate tests
Phase 9: Frequency Design and Group Architecture
Goal: A complete, documented frequency allocation table for all ~35 traffic classes exists and the FreqConfig struct carries a Group field — design decisions are locked in before any protocol code is written Depends on: Phase 8 Requirements: FREQ-01, FREQ-02, FREQ-03, FREQ-04, GRP-01, GRP-04 Success Criteria (what must be TRUE):
- A written frequency allocation table (in a planning doc or code comment) lists every built-in class, its Hz value, waveform, and group — no class is TBD
- Every within-family pair of frequencies satisfies at least a major second interval (ratio 1.122), verifiable by inspection of the table
- The
autoAssignFreqbase for user-defined custom classes is set above all built-in frequencies, with no collision possible FreqConfighas aGroupstring field and all existingClassFreqConfigsentries compile with the new struct shape Plans: 1/2 plans executed Plans:
- 09-01-PLAN.md — Add Group field to FreqConfig, rebalance ClassFreqConfigs to major-second ladder
- 09-02-PLAN.md — Update auto-assign range from [1200,2350] to [2500,4000] Hz
Phase 10: Classification Layer
Goal: All new protocol families are classified — ~21 new TrafficClass constants exist, AllClasses() covers them, and DefaultRules maps all new ports to their classes Depends on: Phase 9 Requirements: PROTO-01, PROTO-02, PROTO-03, PROTO-04, PROTO-05, PROTO-06, PROTO-07, PROTO-08, PROTO-09 Success Criteria (what must be TRUE):
- A packet arriving on any new protocol port (e.g., TCP 143, TCP 3389, TCP 3306, UDP 5353, TCP 5060) is classified into the correct named TrafficClass, not into other-TCP or other-UDP
- All existing 10 protocol classifications continue to match as before — no regression in rule order or port assignments
- Multiple ports mapping to the same family class (e.g., IMAP port 143 and IMAPS port 993 both classify as the same Mail-IMAP class) behave identically in the classifier output
go test ./classify/...passes with no new test failures Plans: 2/2 plans complete Plans:
- 10-01-PLAN.md — Add 21 TrafficClass constants and 30 port-matching rules
- 10-02-PLAN.md — Add 28 classification subtests and update TestAllClassesCount
Phase 11: Synthesis and Config Layer
Goal: Every new traffic class produces a distinct, family-coherent sound and --print-config shows all classes organized by group with section headers Depends on: Phase 9, Phase 10 Requirements: GRP-02, GRP-03 Success Criteria (what must be TRUE):
- Running
netsynth --print-configshows all ~35 classes grouped by family with section header comments (e.g.,# Mail,# Database) — no class is listed without a group - A pcap or live capture that triggers Mail traffic produces tones that are audibly in the same timbral family — same waveform type, similar frequency register — while still being distinguishable from each other
- Users can define
[groups]in their TOML config to reassign a protocol to a different sound family, and --print-config reflects the reassignment go test ./...passes and a listening test on a representative pcap confirms family identity is perceptually clear Plans: TBD
