What it does

Six dogs, local discoveries, earned outfits and a passive receiver for selected 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi management frames and legacy BLE advertisements. The application does not associate, probe, advertise, inject frames or upload observations. See all features.

Initial alpha release · 0.1.0-alpha.1

Initial hardware checks and host regression tests are recorded. Controlled RF accuracy, card/power interruption checks and formal release acceptance remain open. See current status and release gates.

A match describes radio evidence, not intent or proof of surveillance. Some equipment emits nothing Hound can recognize; no matching signals is not an all-clear.
