Apply locally-administered MAC bit manipulation Sets locally administered bit (bit 1 of first byte) and clears multicast bit (bit 0) This transforms a

BSSID key for map lookup (6 bytes as uint64_t)

Calculate simple checksum of buffer (for integrity checking)

Count number of unlocked achievements

Calculate XP remaining to next level Returns 0 if already at max level

Check if SSID is hidden (zero-length or all null bytes)

Check if RSSI indicates a usable signal (typically > -80 dBm)

Check if channel is valid for 2.4GHz band (1-14)

Build a disassoc frame (same structure, different frame control)

Check if RSSI indicates excellent signal (typically > -50 dBm)

=== THUNDER FLASH QUERY ===

Check if MAC is a valid locally-administered unicast address Locally administered bit (bit 1) set, multicast bit (bit 0) clear

Validate PCAP header magic and version

Convert 64-bit key back to 6-byte MAC address

MAC comparison helper [P8]

=== DRAWING ===

Heap-safe file scan for a normalized BSSID key (upper, no separators).

Force trigger a mood peek (for significant events like handshake capture)

Color helper for thunder flash inversion (matches Sirloin)

Initialize PCAP packet header from timestamp and length

Verify deauth frame structure

Convert milliseconds to TU (Time Units, 1 TU = 1024 microseconds) Used for beacon intervals

Convert TU to milliseconds

Helper to write CSV-escaped SSID field (quoted, doubles internal quotes, strips control chars)

Format uint64_t BSSID to string

Get message pair type for hashcat 22000 format: Returns 0x00 for M1+M2, 0x02 for M2+M3, 0xFF for invalid

Valid crackable pairs: M1+M2 (preferred) or M2+M3 (fallback if M1 missed)

Verify disassoc frame structure

Read and parse HTTP status code from a client response. Handles the occasional "HTTP/1.1 100 Continue" prelude.

read 4 bytes, little-endian. the only correct byte order. fight me.

Run a command and handle errors

Scan task check: returns true if should abort

Add phrase index to history (circular buffer)

the main event. parse a pcap file and judge it mercilessly. pcap format (libpcap): - global header: 24 bytes - magic: 4 bytes
