What this Tool does
Use the existing verified CRC-32/ISO-HDLC implementation to calculate the digest over only an explicit user-selected byte range, with an optional exact expected-digest comparison and no repair authority.
Coverage is explicit
The user must explicitly provide a start byte offset and positive byte length entirely within the selected file. Decimal and 0x-prefixed hexadecimal offsets are accepted by the browser UI; no checksum field or coverage range is auto-detected.
What the result means
A digest match is not proof of authenticity, semantic validity, game compatibility or safe editability. Phase 73 never repairs or rewrites a save and never guesses checksum coverage or byte order.
Safe workflow
Keep the source backed up, use only a checksum rule documented for the exact format, and preserve the generated receipt alongside the file you analyzed. The source file is never modified in place.
