About Protostripe: Wire Decoder

Protostripe: Wire Decoder is a focused, fully on-device app. An offline Protocol Buffers wire-format decoder for varints, fixed values, strings, nested messages, packed fields, schema overlays, unknown fields, and payload comparison.

KEY FEATURES
- Decode schema-free protobuf wire fields safely
- Apply optional .proto field names and types
- Inspect varints as signed, unsigned, and zigzag
- Explore nested, packed, text, and raw byte candidates
- Diff payloads by field path and exact byte range
- Complete bundled sample and local comparison workflow
- Local PDF report and Apple system share export
- Original offline technical reference library

ONE-TIME AND PRIVATE
- One paid download; no subscription or in-app purchase
- No account, advertising, analytics, tracking, or developer-operated backend
- Core features and bundled content work offline
- Work remains on device unless you deliberately share or export it through an Apple system interface

Debugging aid. Schema-free interpretations are hypotheses; use the authoritative schema and application behavior for correctness and security decisions.
