Techstream for Linux: recovering Toyota diagnostic formats and workflows

Techstream for Linux reconstructs selected Toyota and Lexus diagnostic resource formats, command behavior and transport handling in a Python GTK4 workbench. It browses local CT and DDB data, decodes recordings and replays diagnostic sessions using synthetic fixtures. The author reports that physical vehicle communication remains unconfirmed.
