Share parser modes and collision-free composite keys, enforce architecture guards, and consolidate redundant unit assertions into filesystem, CLI, MCP, and producer-backed workflows. Preserve concurrent upstream boundary fixes and exclude legacy Objective-C class-name bookkeeping labels.
Validation: source/composition suites (3358 passing), focused canonical digest and MCP checks, typecheck/lint, Knip, formatting, architecture guards, and real Foundation archive and Apple legacy simulator CLI/MCP verification. No real Hopper, Ghidra, or IDA verification claim.
Foundation encodes `encode(_:forKey: "UID")` as a `$top` dictionary
whose single key is `UID`. The keyed archive projection treated every
one-key `UID`/`CF$UID` dictionary as a reference marker, so that root
became a malformed reference and the real link to its object was lost.
Treat a one-key dictionary as a UID only when its value is a number,
matching the binary decoder's UID shape and Foundation's XML `CF$UID`
rule; otherwise descend into it as an ordinary dictionary.
