Addresses four issues from PR #119 review feedback on IPv4/IPv6 detection implementation.

Port validation hardening

  • PORT_SUFFIX_REGEX now enforces valid port range (0-65535) instead of accepting any 1-5 digit number
  • Previous regex would match invalid ports like 99999 or 70000

Test comment accuracy

  • Corrected misleading comment in test_ipv4_version_numbers
  • Updated test expectations to reflect that all valid IPv4 addresses are now accepted

Version number heuristic removal

  • Removed the version number filtering logic that rejected IPv4 addresses where all octets < 20
  • is_ipv4_address() now accepts ALL valid IPv4 addresses in dotted-quad notation, even if they could be version numbers (e.g., "1.2.3.4")
  • Removed the whitelist of common IPs (8.8.8.8, 1.1.1.1, etc.) that were exceptions to the heuristic
  • Updated documentation to clarify that disambiguation between IP addresses and version numbers is the caller's responsibility
  • This simplifies the code by ~30 lines and provides more predictable behavior

Minor fixes

  • Fixed typo: "Simplicy" → "Simplicity" in code review hook name

The approach now favors accepting false positives (treating version numbers as IPs) over false negatives (rejecting legitimate IPs), allowing users to disambiguate based on context when necessary.

@copilot Let's flip this around and allow false positives of version numbers. So any valid IPv4 or IPv6 should be returned as an IP, even if it actually could be a version number instead. It is better to let the user sort out of its a version number in those limited cases where it is in dotted-quad notation and each number is between 0 and 255.

@copilot Let's flip this around and allow false positives of version numbers. So any valid IPv4 or IPv6 should be returned as an IP, even if it actually could be a version number instead. It is better...

Flipped the approach as requested. The version number heuristic has been removed, and all valid IPv4 addresses are now accepted, even if they could be version numbers like "1.2.3.4".

Changes:

  • Removed the octet < 20 filter and common IP whitelist (~30 lines)
  • Simplified is_ipv4_address() to only validate via std::net::Ipv4Addr
  • Updated documentation to clarify caller responsibility for disambiguation
  • Updated tests to expect version-like addresses to be accepted

All CI checks pass. Commit 2e7c1ec.

…/IPv6 detection (#119)

* feat(hooks): add Code Simplicity Checker for automated code review

- Introduced a new hook that triggers a comprehensive code review upon agent completion, focusing on simplifying code, reducing test bloat, and ensuring idiomatic style.
- The hook includes detailed analysis steps and simplification principles to guide the refactoring process, enhancing code maintainability and readability.

This addition aims to streamline the code review process and promote best practices in code simplicity.

* feat(steering): add comprehensive documentation for Rust standards, error handling, performance optimization, and configuration management

- Introduced multiple markdown files detailing standards and best practices for Rust development within the Stringy project.
- Added guidelines for Cargo.toml configuration, error handling patterns using `thiserror`, performance optimization techniques, and strict coding standards.
- Included examples and code snippets to illustrate best practices for string extraction, error handling, and performance benchmarks.
- Enhanced documentation aims to improve code quality, maintainability, and performance across the project.

This addition significantly enriches the project's documentation, providing clear guidance for developers and contributors.

* feat(simplicity-review): add documentation for code simplicity review process

- Introduced two new markdown files: `simplicity_review.md` and `simplicity-review.prompt.md`.
- The `simplicity_review.md` outlines steps for reviewing code for simplicity.
- The `simplicity-review.prompt.md` provides detailed analysis steps and simplification principles to guide developers in refactoring code effectively.
- This addition aims to enhance code maintainability and promote best practices in code simplicity.

* feat(classification): enhance semantic classifier with IPv4/IPv6 detection and documentation updates

- Implemented detection for both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses within the `SemanticClassifier`, including support for port handling and bracketed notation.
- Updated the classification logic to include comprehensive validation for IP addresses, reducing false positives through heuristic checks.
- Enhanced documentation in `README.md` and `classification.md` to reflect new capabilities and provide usage examples for IP address classification.
- Refactored the `semantic.rs` module to improve code clarity and maintainability, including detailed comments on the classification process.

This enhancement significantly improves the library's ability to analyze network indicators, facilitating better binary analysis and string extraction.
