What it is​

GT is reported as a Golden Thread embroidery format lead.

Satin Studio direction​

Do not probe by extension alone.

Versions and variants​

Tracked as a low-volume lead until sample files establish variants and ecosystem.

File identification notes​

Reported structure is a 512-byte header followed by unsigned x, y, control-style stitch records.

Observed structure notes​

  • GT has been observed as a 512-byte header followed by the same y, x, control Z-style triplets used by some DSZ/ZSK leads.
  • Because the ecosystem lead is low-volume, treat command decoding as provisional until files with provenance validate it.

Structure sketch​

GT is modeled as a header plus Z-style records until better files prove otherwise:

struct GtCandidate<'a> {
    header: [u8; 0x200],
    records: &'a [ZStyleRecord],
}

struct ZStyleRecord {
    y: u8,
    x: u8,
    control: u8,
}

What we still need​

Sample files with provenance, command mapping, and reader validation.
