Evidence infrastructure, not protocol functionality. Built before gates 7-10
because those sessions cannot be reproduced -- a later run is a different
session, and the migration-validation runs happen once. Gates 5-6 already went
past without their bytes being recorded.
TWO LAYERS
live FIFA traffic
├── raw capture exact RX/TX bytes, mode 0600, gitignored
└── blaze-sanitize → repository-safe, replayable fixtures
CAPTURE. Off unless OPENFUT_BLAZE_CAPTURE names a file. Deterministic
big-endian container: 20-byte file header, then per-frame records carrying
connection id, a global monotonic sequence, timestamp, direction and the EXACT
frame bytes. RX is recorded as received; TX only AFTER a successful write, so a
record means the bytes were sent rather than intended.
Component/command/msgNum/msgType/payload length are deliberately NOT stored
beside the frame: they are already in its 16-byte header, and a redundant copy
can disagree with the bytes, leaving a reader unable to tell which is true.
Record::header() derives them, so every field the requirements name is
available without duplicating it.
SANITIZER. Redacts only the named tags in SENSITIVE_TAGS (KEY, AUTH, SESS,
MAIL, PML) and reports every substitution with path, kind and length.
Replacement is LENGTH-PRESERVING, so the TDF varint, payload length and Fire2
header are unchanged and the sanitized frame is exactly the size of the
captured one -- asserted per frame, failing rather than emitting a subtly
different conversation. Frames with nothing sensitive keep their exact wire
bytes. Payloads that will not decode are passed through and REPORTED, so a
reader knows they were never inspected rather than assuming they were checked.
TESTS. 39 in this crate. All nine required cases: capture disabled produces no
artefact; RX and TX captured exactly; ordering preserved; fragmented input
(one byte at a time) reconstructs the same frames as a single write; coalesced
input is captured as separate frames, not per-read; capture does not alter wire
output; sanitization removes a real session key from a real captured login;
malformed/truncated/wrong-version captures fail clearly; every listed sensitive
tag is provably reachable.
MUTATION TESTED. Dropping TX capture, truncating captured frames to their
header, and removing KEY from the sensitive list were each verified to turn the
suite red. One mutation was NOT caught: moving the TX capture above the write.
It is indistinguishable while writes succeed and only diverges when one fails.
That invariant is held by code placement and a comment saying so, not by a
test, and the code says as much rather than implying coverage it does not have.
Python oracle unchanged.

OpenFUT
Offline Ultimate Team — like SPT, but for FIFA 23.
OpenFUT replaces EA's retired FUT servers with a fully offline, single-player backend. You own FIFA 23 legitimately. You just want to keep playing after EA shut down the servers.
Repositories

SQLite database
Core is game-independent. It speaks a clean REST API and knows nothing about FIFA 23 internals.
Bridge is FIFA-specific. It speaks FIFA 23's wire protocol and translates it into Core API calls. Bridge is where all reverse engineering work happens.

Running
# Start the offline backend
cd openfut-core
cargo run
# Start the proxy (for traffic capture / FIFA integration)
cd openfut-bridge
cargo run
Core listens on http://127.0.0.1:8080 by default.
Bridge listens on http://127.0.0.1:8443 by default.
Design Principles
- Offline-first. No EA account required. No internet connection needed.
- Single-player only. This is not a multiplayer server emulator.
- Data-driven. All cards, packs, SBCs, and objectives are JSON files. Everything is moddable.
- Clean architecture. Core has zero knowledge of FIFA 23. Bridge has zero game logic.
- No copyrighted assets. No real player images, no EA trademarks in data files.

This project is not affiliated with EA Sports. You must own FIFA 23 legitimately to use this software. This project does not bypass any ownership verification and is intended only to restore offline playability of a game whose online services have been retired.
