Reverse engineer / decode CAN bus signals: find which CAN ID, byte and bit encode a real-world quantity (vehicle speed, engine RPM, state-of-charge, coolant temp, throttle, door lock, ...) and derive its start-bit, length, endianness, scale and offset into a DBC. A deterministic chain of Python scripts (survey -> correlate -> bitsearch -> build_dbc -> verify) replaces "a human watches the screen to spot correlations". Works three ways: (1) OFFLINE - decode a signal from an EXISTING recorded log
