I've written dozens of things that deal with TCP. I already have a fully-working example of what I want. The idea was to test if I could recreate it using LLMs.
How is it supposed to work? How does it put in the code I already know I want?

I can't tell if you are a troll or not, but you can't complain that nobody understands your intentionally vague and obtuse way to describe the problem at hand to pretend you're superior.
You have to rename the file ending to PDF. It's probably the wrong spec, because I'm basing this research on literally four letters that could mean anything since there is zero context given here. I've also found some German documents about chemistry.
If your argument is that LLMs and humans are stupid because they don't know what a "GD92" is, then yeah maybe it's a you problem.
Go and throw the spec into openai codex inside limactl (get it from GitHub) and use zed (the editor) and a SSH remote project to get inside the VM, don't forget to enable KVM for performance. The free tier for openai is fine, but make sure to use codex 5.2.
First ask questions on what the binary encoding is based on. It's probably X.400, then once you've asked enough questions, tell it to implement it. You probably won't have to read the spec at all yourself.
I started the task 56 minutes ago with one prompt, and now I have an implementation I can show you. There's plenty to quibble about - the files splayed over the main directory are quite ugly, and there is no actual test data that we can use on the public internet - but these are all trivially resolvable issues.
I didn't do any additional research for this. I gave it the spec PDF, your instructions upthread, and told it to build a library. You can also consult the transcripts (linked in the README) to see that I have no tricks up my sleeve. I didn't need to decompose the task in any meaningful way: the only input I provided was on minor matters of taste.
