- schematics, bill of materials, board photographs, continuity tests, optical
direction tests, and teardown evidence for the exact hardware revision.
+FOG does not assume that a PC provides a native TOSLINK port. The intended
+high-assurance profile uses dedicated offline `TOTX` and online `TORX` boards
+with narrowly allowlisted local interfaces. A consumer optical audio port or
+adapter may support a functional experiment but does not establish physical
+directionality.

+The optical diode constrains data flow through the selected fiber only. It

+covert signal into the permitted offline-to-online output, and it cannot
+protect unlocked Composer state from compromised local firmware, drivers,
+peripherals, or host software.

TOSLINK defines optical transmitter and receiver device classes, not the
complete FOG-SX modulation. Before activation the candidate must fix the exact
