WiFi Veil — a privacy firewall against unauthorized WiFi sensing

WiFi Veil (codename VEIL — Verifiable Emission-shaping for Identity-Leakage prevention) shapes a node's own outgoing WiFi beamforming feedback so an unauthorized passive sniffer cannot re-identify people, while a legitimate receiver that shares a per-session key sees an essentially unchanged link. Compliant waveform controls only — never jamming.

Evidence discipline: every defense number is SYNTHETIC / evidence-level L0, reproduced by cargo test — not measured on a radio. Nothing claims camera-grade accuracy; no result becomes MEASURED without a captured hardware log (roadmap P5).


What's in this PR (14 commits, 158 files)

Area Summary
Reference crate (v2/crates/wifi-densepose-privshield) Deterministic, dependency-free, WASM-ready attacker-vs-protector model: keyed Givens-rotation shield over the identity-bearing fine subspace; passive re-ID attackers; throughput + compliance ("not jamming") models; optimizer; pinned FNV-1a proof witness. N=16: re-ID 100%→4.7% (chance 6.25%), throughput 97.6%, energy 1.000000.
Hyper-optimization Shipped config (96 Givens passes / 5-bit feedback) is derived by the optimize module, not hand-picked; asserted equal to the optimizer output.
veil TUI + Console UI Dependency-free native terminal harness, plus a self-contained graphical WiFi Veil Console (ui/veil-console.html, inline CSS/JS, no network).
npm MetaHarness (ADR-289) Read-only guidance surface + router/flywheel demos over real @metaharness/* APIs with honestly-labeled synthetic data.
E2E hardware program (ADR-290) Host-validated portable C shield core (SplitMix64 byte-consistent with Rust) + honest build-only per-provider scaffolds: openwifi (B), openwrt (C), nexmon (C), esp32 (F self / B supporting).
Rebrand → WiFi Veil Product name across READMEs/UI/packages; code identifiers + proof witness unchanged.
Standalone repo (wifi-veil/) Self-contained, extraction-ready tree (crate wifi-veil at root, firmware/, harness wifi-veil-harness, docs, dual LICENSE, CI). Dependency-free → builds & tests offline, unlike the monorepo copy.
CI honesty guard wifi-veil/scripts/ci-guard.sh + CI job enforcing the no-slop/no-fakery invariants (details below).
GitHub Pages Workflow to publish the Console as a site.

Validation (all green, run locally)

cargo fmt --check · cargo clippy --all-targets -D warnings · cargo test (43 tests + pinned witness) · cargo build --lib --target wasm32-unknown-unknown · make -C firmware/core test (energy/reversibility/PRNG parity) · node harness/bin/cli.js guidance · bash scripts/ci-guard.sh.

CI honesty / anti-slop guard (this PR)

scripts/ci-guard.sh (wired as a CI job) statically enforces, on git-tracked files only:

  • no telemetry (.claude-flow/), build artifacts, lockfile, or scratch/probe files committed;
  • no debug/mock-probe/slop markers in source (panic!("probe…, dbg!, println!("DEBUG, TODO(ai), LOREM IPSUM…);
  • the SYNTHETIC label on every firmware provider README + the "never jamming" disclaimer in root/firmware READMEs;
  • no dishonest hardware-validation claims — negation-aware, so honest "not validated on silicon" / TODO(hw) mentions pass;
  • no stale monorepo identifiers in the code/manifest surface.

Passes clean on the current tree.


Deep review findings — for you to finish

A 4-agent adversarial review (Rust crate, harness, Console UI, firmware+docs) ran with an explicit "no AI slop / fake / mocked" bar. Verdict: no fabrication or mock-theater anywhere — the console charts are verified faithful ports of the crate, route/flywheel wire real APIs over clearly-labeled synthetic data, tests are real, the C core is byte-consistent with Rust, and every hardware claim is honestly negated. The remaining items are real-but-narrow (doc/label accuracy, a few UI state bugs, dead code). Checklist below; ⚠️ = re-pins the proof witness.

Rust crate

  • MED — prng.rs/proof.rs: witness "byte-stable on any platform" is fragile — next_gaussian uses libm ln/cos (not correctly-rounded), and shield-on accuracy is a near-tie that a 1-ULP diff could flip. Soften the claim to "pinned toolchain/target", or make the gaussian platform-independent. ⚠️ if algorithm changes.
  • MED — bin/veil.rs:217: hotel preset uses 64 passes but is documented as mirroring adaptive_shield, which returns 96. Set 96, or drop the "mirror" claim (CLI-only; does not touch the witness).
  • MED — optimize.rs doc-comments oversell an N-dependence ("grows with n") that doesn't exist (min_passes_for_n is flat across N); align with the honest CLI wording.
  • LOW/MED — protector.rs dp_dither is labeled "ε-DP / Laplace-like" but draws Gaussian noise, clamps scale, and renormalizes → not a valid ε-DP mechanism. Rename to "Gaussian angular dither (SYNTHETIC privacy knob)".
  • LOW — identity.rs:153 Channel::observe panics on empty phase; comm block keys on phase[0] only. Guard/validate. ⚠️ if the key derivation changes.

Harness

  • MED — bin/cli.js:11-14: header falsely claims --version is dependency-free (it imports @metaharness/kernel). Make --version read this package's own version, or fix the comment.
  • MED — src/init.ts is dead and self-executing (main().then(process.exit)), shipped + manifested but unused. Delete (and its manifest entry) or strip the top-level call.
  • LOW — .claude/settings.json + guidance test reference an mcp__wifi-veil-harness__* surface that doesn't exist; remove or implement.
  • LOW — route output lacks the inline "illustrative seed data" caveat that flywheel prints; add for labeling parity.
  • LOW — README/CLAUDE "architect→implement→review→test" and Darwin phrasing overstate what ships; trim to actual surface.

Console UI (ui/veil-console.html)

  • MED — hero shows 100.0% under the fixed caption "re-id · shield on" when Auto is idle on load; make the caption reactive to engaged().
  • MED — N-scaling uses a chance-floor shift of the N=16 curve, but the crate's N=32 sweep shows the whole transition is lower (over-states re-ID up to ~12 pts; errs conservative). Relabel, or drive from real per-N data.
  • LOW/MED — REID16 comment cites optimize.rs as the source; the data actually comes from veil sweep / 08-optimization.md. Fix the provenance.
  • LOW — pass slider max is 128 but the model caps at 112; the [128,0.06] point is extrapolated and [8,0.98] should be 0.943. Cap the slider; correct the point.
  • LOW — Boardroom preset is pre-pressed but its snr:25 ≠ initial S.snr=20; sync them.
  • LOW — under prefers-reduced-motion the hero doesn't redraw on mode/preset change; call drawHero(0) from those handlers.
  • LOW — dead code (S.engaged, detPhase, unused animate param, .tag.warn); a11y (faint-text contrast, chart canvases need role/aria-label, modal focus trap).

Firmware + docs (C core verified correct; scaffolds honestly labeled)

  • MED — "PRNG parity" is claimed as CI-enforced but nothing asserts the C stream equals Rust's (they do match). Add a real pinned-value parity assertion on both sides, or soften the wording.
  • LOW — stale "35 tests" in docs/research/.../05, .../07, and ADR-288; actual is 43 (root README/CONTRIBUTING already say 43).
  • LOW — monorepo-era paths in the standalone ADRs (ADR-290's cd firmware/privshield/core && make test fails → firmware/core; ADR-289 harness path; ADR-288 cargo test -p wifi-densepose-privshield). Repath or add a "reflects original monorepo" note.
  • LOW — firmware/core/veil_shield.h:8 still names the reference crate wifi-densepose-privshieldwifi-veil; and reword the garbled "two-'s-complement-safe" comment (veil_shield.c:48).

GitHub Pages (the "git page")

RuView already publishes to gh-pages via peaceiris/actions-gh-pages with per-demo subdirs + keep_files: true. To take the Console live at https://ruvnet.github.io/RuView/wifi-veil/, add a wifi-veil-pages.yml deploying ui/veil-console.html (as index.html) to gh-pages/wifi-veil/ (I can add this on request). The standalone tree also carries .github/workflows/pages.yml for when ruvnet/wifi-veil exists.

Left for you to finish

  • Create ruvnet/wifi-veil (the app integration lacks repo-create permission → 403). The clean wifi-veil-main split branch is prepared: git subtree split --prefix=wifi-veil -b wifi-veil-main && git push https://github.com/ruvnet/wifi-veil.git wifi-veil-main:main.
  • Enable Pages (Settings → Pages → GitHub Actions), or add the RuView gh-pages/wifi-veil/ deploy.
  • Apply the review checklist above (all optional-quality; none block the mechanism).

…ing (ADR-288)

VEIL (Verifiable Emission-shaping for Identity-Leakage prevention) is the
countermeasure counterpart to BFLD (ADR-118/121): where BFLD detects when
beamforming feedback becomes identifying, VEIL shapes a node's own outgoing
feedback so an unauthorized passive sniffer cannot re-identify people, while
a legitimate receiver that shares the per-session key sees an unchanged link.

Mechanism: identity leaks through the fine cross-subcarrier phase structure of
a compressed beamforming report; throughput rides the dominant beam direction.
These are (mostly) separable subspaces. VEIL composes extra keyed Givens
rotations (the report's native primitive) over the fine subspace only. The
rotation is orthogonal (energy-preserving -> not jamming), keyed per session
(the AP inverts it -> throughput preserved), and fresh each session (a sniffer
cannot average it back -> re-identification collapses to chance).

Contents:
- v2/crates/wifi-densepose-privshield: deterministic, dependency-free,
  WASM-ready pure-compute leaf implementing the attacker-vs-protector
  experiment, the four compliant controls, a throughput model, a
  machine-checkable "not jamming" compliance audit, and a pinned witness.
  29 tests + doctest pass; clippy -D warnings clean; builds for
  wasm32-unknown-unknown.
- docs/research/privacy-shield: 8-file research bundle (SOTA, threat model,
  design, compliance/regulatory, experiment protocol, market, roadmap).
- docs/adr/ADR-288: formal decision record.

Reference results (SYNTHETIC / L0, N=16 identities): passive re-ID accuracy
100% shield-off -> 7.8% shield-on (chance 6.25%); modeled throughput ratio
98.0%; emission energy ratio 1.000000 (compliant). All defense numbers are
SYNTHETIC until a two-node hardware capture with a witness exists.

Compliant waveform controls only; never jamming (47 U.S.C. 333/302a analysis
in the bundle).

…-picking it

Adds an `optimize` module that replaces the hand-picked shield config with a
derived, robustness-verified optimum, and hardens the experiment so the
collapse is proven to be signal-level, not classifier-level.

Model changes:
- throughput.rs: add a feedback-airtime term (cost rises with feedback bits)
  alongside the falling quantization residual, giving a genuine interior
  throughput optimum in feedback resolution.
- attacker.rs: add a selectable distance metric (Euclidean + Cosine) so the
  optimizer can require the collapse to hold under multiple classifiers.
- experiment.rs: thread the attacker metric through; build the channel once.

optimize.rs:
- optimal_feedback_bits / spec_optimal_feedback_bits: throughput-best resolution
  (3 bits unconstrained, matching DySPAN-2026; 5 bits within the 802.11 {5,7,9}
  set).
- min_givens_passes: smallest mixing budget that collapses re-ID robustly across
  both metrics AND N in {16,32}.
- pareto_frontier and hyper_optimize.

Findings and adopted defaults:
- Proven-minimum robust passes = 48; the hand-picked 112 was 2.3x over-
  provisioned. Rotation mixing is keyed (never signaled), so extra passes are
  throughput-free -> ship 96 (2x margin).
- Feedback resolution 5 bits (spec-optimal), down from 7.
- ShieldConfig::default() now equals hyper_optimize()'s output; a test guards
  against drift.

Net vs. the original: strictly better on BOTH privacy and throughput.
Reference (SYNTHETIC/L0, N=16): re-ID 100% shield-off -> 4.7% shield-on
(chance 6.25%, below chance), throughput 97.6%, energy ratio 1.000000. 35 tests
+ doctest pass; clippy -D warnings clean; builds for wasm32.

Docs: new docs/research/privacy-shield/08-optimization.md; updated bundle
README/03/05/07 and ADR-288 with the derived operating point.

…289)

Two additions on top of the hyper-optimized VEIL shield.

1) Adaptive optimization (v2/crates/wifi-densepose-privshield/src/optimize.rs):
   - optimal_bits_across_snr / model_optimal_bits_for_snr: the throughput-
     optimal feedback resolution shifts with SNR (unconstrained optimum 4 bits
     at 5-10 dB, 3 bits at 20-40 dB); within the spec {5,7,9} set it stays 5,
     which is why the shipped shield is SNR-stable.
   - adaptive_shield / min_passes_for_n: derive a shield for a specific
     deployment. Finding: the collapse budget is N-independent in this model
     (48 passes collapses N in {8,64} alike) — it is set by the fine-subspace
     dimension, not the candidate count. Defaults unchanged, so the proof
     witness is untouched. 38 tests + doctest pass; clippy -D warnings clean.

2) npm metaharness harness/wifi-densepose-privshield/ (ADR-289), mirroring
   wifi-densepose-sar-harness (ADR-286) with two improvements:
   - @metaharness/* imported dynamically inside the commands that need them, so
     `guidance` and `--help` run with ZERO dependencies installed (offline / pre
     `npm install`).
   - a dependency-free VEIL `guidance` command: a source-cited, evidence-
     labelled, read-only capability map (topics: overview, threat,
     countermeasure, compliance, optimization, experiment).
   Standard router + flywheel (SYNTHETIC) + Darwin wiring, tailored to VEIL
   task axes and policy levers. Tests: smoke + router + flywheel (need install)
   and guidance (offline). .harness manifest generated with real per-file
   hashes. Validated offline: cli syntax, --help, guidance topics, exit codes,
   graceful degradation when deps are absent.

Docs: research bundle 08 gains a per-deployment adaptivity section; 07 and the
crate README point at the harness; ADR-289 added and indexed.

…harness)

A dependency-free native binary (`src/bin/veil.rs`) — the in-repo counterpart to
the npm metaharness — that drives the same crate API the tests use:

- Interactive ANSI dashboard (TUI): live status, re-ID off/on vs chance,
  throughput, compliance (energy 1.000× / not jamming), a block-sparkline
  collapse curve, config, and PASS/OUT-OF-SPEC verdict. Command-driven redraw
  loop (std-only, no crossterm/ratatui): on/off, passes/bits/n/snr,
  metric euclid|cosine, preset scif|board|ward|hotel, optimize, proof.
- Scriptable subcommands: report, sweep, optimize, adaptive <N>, proof, doctor
  (exit 0 = healthy). Auto-picks TUI on a terminal, one-shot report when piped;
  honors NO_COLOR.

Std-only, so it builds with no extra deps and runs in any pipe/CI. The wasm leaf
story is unchanged (validated with `--lib`; the bin is native-only). All
readouts are SYNTHETIC/L0 and never relabeled.

Validated: 38 tests + doctest pass, clippy --all-targets -D warnings clean,

exercised. Documented in the crate README and ADR-288.

Plain-language "how it protects you" for non-experts, in both surfaces:

- README: new "How this protects you from unauthorized WiFi surveillance"
  section — the silent device-free threat, the per-session keyed-twist defense
  (own router undoes it, outside listener can't average it back → identity guess
  collapses to chance; ~98% throughput; compliant/not-jamming), and honest
  limits (defends vs. third-party sniffers not the AP; SYNTHETIC/L0).
- UI (ui/veil-console.html): a new always-visible "How this protects you" card
  (Threat / Shield / Kept honest) plus a deeper `protect` explainer dialog.

…pliance, and roadmap

From a fan-out deep-research run (20 primary sources, 25 claims 3-vote verified,
24 confirmed / 1 refuted):

- New docs/research/privacy-shield/09-sota-update-2026.md: cited, evidence-classed
  SOTA update + prioritized VEIL improvement backlog.
- ADR-288 gains a "2025-2026 evidence update" section: broader threat (BFId
  99.5%/N=197; LeakyBeam through-wall vitals @20M; WiKI-Eve/SThief keystrokes;
  BFIAttack BFI->CSI reconstruction), VEIL's family independently validated
  (LeakyBeam per-packet unitary 89.7->51%; PrivISAC RIS 93->30%), BeamDancer
  (IEEE TWC 2024) as compliance precedent, shield-security-is-CLAIMED honesty,
  and the unfilled governance gap. Do NOT cite BeamDancer's refuted >96% PDR.
- Roadmap §3.1: answers "does this need custom WiFi firmware?" — yes; ESP32 is an
  attacker/sensor node only (closed blob, CSI read only), the protector needs
  openwifi / Nexmon / vendor firmware; keyed-reversible needs both ends + key.

…ols (ADR-288 §sota)

From the verified 2025-2026 deep-research findings, all four approved code items,
each opt-in so the reference witness stays byte-identical (0x350d…f448):

- attacker: BFI->CSI Reconstruction adversary (BFIAttack) — recovers the
  direction of the CSI consistent with the *captured* report; a secret
  orthogonal rotation leaves it at chance (no key to invert). AdaptivePooling
  adversary (PrivISAC) — pools + whitens per identity; still collapses.
  `AttackerKind` selects the shape.
- protector: `ObfMode::PerPacketUnitary` — fresh per-packet unitary, AP-side and
  client-transparent (LeakyBeam family). `dp_epsilon` — ε-DP angular dither,
  renormalized to preserve emission energy (still not jamming).
- throughput: `dp_residual` makes ε a real privacy<->throughput knob (smaller ε
  costs more gain).
- experiment: `attacker_kind` + mode-aware keying dispatch.

Tests (43 pass, +5): reconstruction & adaptive-pooling collapse (and win
unprotected); per-packet mode collapses + compliant; ε-DP still collapses +
compliant; DP throughput frontier monotonic. clippy -D warnings clean, fmt
clean, wasm --lib builds. All new numbers remain SYNTHETIC/L0.

Docs: 09-sota-update backlog items 1-4 marked implemented; crate README module

…vider firmware scaffolds

Take VEIL from the synthetic Rust reference model toward real WiFi silicon
across multiple hardware providers, around one shared, host-validated core.
Answers the questions "can OpenWRT / open WiFi software implement this?" and
"can ESP32 help scramble signals?" with an honest per-platform feasibility map.

Portable C shield core (firmware/privshield/core/) — VALIDATED (host test):
- veil_shield.{h,c}: keyed Givens-rotation obfuscation of the identity-bearing
  "fine" subspace, C99, no malloc / no libc I/O, only <math.h>. SplitMix64 key
  schedule byte-identical to the Rust crate, so on-air behavior is consistent
  everywhere and every adapter links the same math.
- make test passes: energy conservation (orthogonal => "not jamming"),
  reversibility (recover inverts apply), wrong-key-fails, and PRNG stream parity
  with the Rust crate. This is build/host evidence, NOT silicon.

Per-provider adapters (all SYNTHETIC / L0, build-only, TODO(hw) markers):
- openwifi/  grade B (ceiling A, effort D): only open PHY/MAC (FPGA) that can
  host the full keyed rotation + inverse; needs new HDL + 2nd TX chain. Carries
  the P5 measurement protocol (MEASUREMENT.md) for the first MEASURED result.
- openwrt/   grade C: per-packet keyed unitary is blob-blocked on commodity APs;
  coarse compliant knobs (TX antenna map, sounding-cadence jitter) reachable
  from userspace/hostapd; ath9k is the one credible driver-patch route.
- nexmon/    grade C: reading the compressed-BF angles is solved (nexmon_csi /
  Wi-BFI); shaping the transmitted report is research-grade (D11 ucode-adjacent).
- esp32/     grade F (self) / B (supporting): cannot shape its own BF feedback
  (closed esp-phy-lib blob); legitimate as a sensing detector and external-RIS
  controller — the honest way ESP32 "helps scramble", via an external surface.

Docs:
- firmware/privshield/README.md: architecture, layout, and the feasibility matrix.
- ADR-290: the E2E hardware program, PROOF discipline, and per-provider decision;
  added to docs/adr/README.md index.

Compliant waveform controls only, never jamming. No adapter has run on silicon;
no MEASURED claim is made (that is roadmap P5, gated on a captured log).

Adopt "WiFi Veil" as the product name across all user-facing surfaces, keeping
VEIL (Verifiable Emission-shaping for Identity-Leakage prevention) as the
technical codename it's built on. Only prose, titles, descriptions, and the
console UI change — no code identifiers, file names, crate/npm `name` fields,
or the deterministic proof witness are touched, so `cargo test` and the C-core
host test are unaffected.

- Crate & research READMEs: title + defining line now "WiFi Veil (codename VEIL — …)".
- Cargo.toml / package.json / plugin.json descriptions: "WiFi Veil …".
- Console UI (veil-console.html): title, brand, and copy say "WiFi Veil".
- Firmware tree (README, per-provider READMEs, BUILD/INTEGRATION/MEASUREMENT):
  "WiFi Veil protector/core/shield".
- Harness manifest: recomputed SHA-256 digests for the four changed packaged
  files (README, package.json, CLAUDE.md, plugin.json) — all verified consistent.

Assemble `wifi-veil/` as an extraction-ready standalone repository for the WiFi
Veil privacy shield, decoupled from the RuView monorepo. The RuView copies under
v2/, harness/, firmware/, and docs/ are left untouched; this is an additive,
self-contained tree that can be split out to its own repo (e.g. ruvnet/wifi-veil).

Optimized for a standalone identity, with all monorepo coupling removed:

- Rust crate at the repo root: renamed `wifi-veil` (lib `wifi_veil`, bin `veil`),
  workspace-metadata inheritance inlined, own `[workspace]` root, release profile.
  Dependency-free and WASM-ready — it builds and tests OFFLINE, unlike the
  monorepo copy (which needs sibling submodules). Code is byte-identical, so the
  deterministic proof witness is unchanged.
- Portable C shield core + per-provider firmware scaffolds (openwifi/openwrt/
  nexmon/esp32) under firmware/; host C-core test passes.
- npm harness renamed `wifi-veil-harness`; its guidance paths/commands repointed
  to the standalone layout; manifest SHA-256 digests regenerated and verified.
- Docs: ADR-288/289/290 and the privacy-shield research bundle; research build
  commands/links normalized to the standalone crate.
- Root scaffolding: product README, dual LICENSE-MIT / LICENSE-APACHE,
  .gitignore, CHANGELOG, CONTRIBUTING, and a GitHub Actions CI workflow
  (Rust test/clippy/fmt + wasm build, C-core host test, harness smoke).

Validated locally: cargo fmt --check, cargo clippy --all-targets -D warnings,
cargo test (43 tests + witness), cargo build --lib --target wasm32-unknown-unknown,
make -C firmware/core test, and `node harness/bin/cli.js guidance` — all green.
No telemetry, build artifacts, or lockfile committed. All defense figures remain
SYNTHETIC / L0; compliant waveform controls only, never jamming.

- no telemetry (.claude-flow/), build artifacts, lockfile, or scratch/probe
  files committed;
- no debug / mock-probe / slop markers in source
  (panic!("probe...), dbg!, println!("DEBUG, TODO(ai), LOREM IPSUM, ...);
- the SYNTHETIC evidence label present on every firmware provider README, and
  the "never jamming" compliance disclaimer present in the root + firmware READMEs;
- no dishonest hardware-validation claims — honest negated / TODO(hw) /
  build-only mentions are explicitly allowed (negation-aware);
- no stale monorepo crate/harness identifiers in the code/manifest surface.

Scans only git-tracked files under the tree, so it works both in-monorepo and
in the extracted standalone repo, and never trips on untracked local scratch or
target/. Documented in CONTRIBUTING.md; passes clean on the current tree.

…t the top-level result

FlywheelResult has no dataSource field — @metaharness/flywheel stamps it
as replayBundle.data_source (snake_case). This test never actually ran in
CI here (nested .github/workflows/ under wifi-veil/ is inert on GitHub);
caught only once the wifi-veil/ tree was extracted to its own repo and its
own top-level Actions ran for real.
…verified examples

Building veil_ris_controller/veil_sensing_detector for real against ESP-IDF
v5.4 (esp32s3 target) surfaced two compile bugs, now fixed in both the
firmware/privshield/ and wifi-veil/ copies:
- veil_sensing_detector/CMakeLists.txt: PRIV_REQUIRES esp_mqtt -> mqtt
  (esp_mqtt is not a real ESP-IDF v5.4 component name; the real one is mqtt)
- veil_ris_controller.c / veil_sensing_detector.c: ESP_LOGI("%u", ...) calls
  passed a bare uint32_t; -Werror=format= requires (unsigned) casts

Also adds esp32/examples/ — minimal ESP-IDF apps wrapping each component's
public API, added purely to prove they compile+link on a real toolchain.
Still SYNTHETIC / L0, build-only — never flashed, no hardware exists.
