What it is for

Thin bounded wrapper around mtr --report --json: cited Observations from a network path trace, no verdicts.

Wire format verified live against real mtr output on this machine (not assumed): mtr --report --json --report-cycles 1 <target> produces {"report": {"mtr": {...}, "hubs": {"count", "host", "Loss%", "Snt", "Last", "Avg", "Best", "Wrst", "StDev"}, ...}} — a clean, typed structure (unlike Volatility3's tree-shaped renderer), so this crate deserializes into real structs rather than citing generic key=value pairs.

Capabilities

`NetTraceError`

Thin bounded wrapper around mtr --report --json: cited Observations from a

Item
`pub enum NetTraceError`
`fn parse_mtr_json(stdout : & str, rule_id : & str) -> Result <Vec <Observation>, NetTraceError>`
`async fn trace(mtr_bin : impl Into <PathBuf>, target : & str, limits : ExecLimits,) -> Result <Vec <Observation>, NetTraceError>`

How to use it

No examples/ target and no doctest in this crate's rustdoc. The tests listed under Verification are the closest executable usage.

Module structure

No public modules: the crate root is its whole surface.

Public surface

`crate root`

Item	What it is
`pub enum NetTraceError`	Every way a trace can fail.
`fn parse_mtr_json(stdout : & str, rule_id : & str) -> Result <Vec <Observation>, NetTraceError>`	Parse `mtr --report --json` stdout into cited Observations, one per hop
`async fn trace(mtr_bin : impl Into <PathBuf>, target : & str, limits : ExecLimits,) -> Result <Vec <Observation>, NetTraceError>`	Run `mtr --report --json --report-cycles 1 <target>` and cite each hop

No pub use re-exports: every item above is declared in this crate.

Boundary

Reaches into foundation, infrastructure.

Shares tier operations with 40 other crates: operations-approval-workflow, operations-assessments, operations-block-imaging, operations-boot-media, operations-browser-agent-worker, operations-camera-discovery, operations-camera-liveview, operations-camera-registry, … (40 total).

_What this crate deliberately does NOT own is a judgment. No committed registry records one for it, so none is stated here._
