Parse PE optional-header commitments before provider selection and expose provider-neutral executable role and managed-code observations. Hash targets through the same open file handle used for classification so later provider snapshots can reject path replacement by digest. Cover native applications, DLLs, managed images, malformed directory declarations, and delayed PE headers while preserving managed-provider behavior.
Move Hopper loader derivation and compatibility projection into the Hopper adapter so BinaryTarget carries only provider-neutral identity and format metadata.
Introduce bounded canonical analysis-profile commitments, exact provider/profile snapshot v2 bindings, legacy snapshot rejection guidance, and backward-compatible profiled Evidence v2 records. Partition cache and replay behavior by target, concrete provider build, and profile while preserving custom Hopper loader overrides.
Propagate profiles consistently through CLI, MCP, composed workflows, and session lifecycle; preserve the 78-tool contract and legacy loaderArgs response projection. Add migration documentation, generated API updates, property regressions, package verification, and real Hopper coverage.
