The CatSniffer V3 host toolset (CatSniffer-Tools / catnip): one CLI over the CatSniffer that manages firmware and captures across protocols. It sniffs BLE (via the Sniffle firmware), IEEE 802.15.4 Zigbee/Thread and LoRa straight into Wireshark over an extcap; its cativity mode shows live 802.15.4 channel activity and Zigbee/Thread network topology; its SX1262 spectrum analyzer scans the sub-GHz/LoRa bands in real time; it decodes Meshtastic live or offline (trying default PSKs, with a TUI dashboard); the SX1262 reads and transmits (G)FSK packets on 433/868/915 MHz over a scriptable serial bridge; it scans Apple Find My / AirTag devices; and on Linux it presents the CatSniffer as a native HCI (hciX / vHCI) Bluetooth adapter for host tools like Bleak and bettercap.
