## Requirements & limits

- The documented environment uses Linux, QEMU, PostgreSQL, extraction dependencies and recursively cloned components, with modified MIPS/ARM kernels. The README explicitly excludes x86 firmware emulation.
- The project is marked a research prototype, not production-ready. Its setup includes legacy Python/binwalk tooling, and missing NVRAM values or unsuccessful network inference can require manual adaptation.
