ProtoPirate
for Flipper Zero
ProtoPirate is an experimental rolling-code analysis toolkit developed by members of The Pirates' Plunder. The app currently supports decoding for multiple automotive key-fob families (Kia, Ford, Subaru, Suzuki, VW, and more), with the goal of being a drop-in Flipper app (.fap) that is free, open source, and can be used on any Flipper Zero firmware.

Features
📡 Protocol Receiver
Real-time signal capture and decoding with animated radar display. Supports frequency hopping.
📂 Sub Decode
Load and analyze existing .sub files from your SD card. Browse /ext/subghz/ to decode previously captured signals.
⏱️ Timing Tuner
Tool for protocol developers to compare real fob signal timing against protocol definitions.
- Protocol Definition: Expected short/long pulse durations and tolerance
- Received Signal: Measured timing from real fob (avg, min, max, sample count)
- Analysis: Difference from expected, jitter measurements
- Conclusion: Whether timing matches or needs adjustment with specific recommendations
