Four reference implementations — Python, Node.js (falsify-js), Go, Rust. All pass 21/21 vectors byte-for-byte; CI verifies 4 × 21 = 84 byte-for-byte agreements plus 4 × 14 = 56 reject-vector checks per push.
Conformance test vectors — 21 vectors total (13 v0.1 normative + 8 v0.2 candidate), all with locked SHA-256 digests.
