**Task 5 — golden-fixture parity for the C-ABI bindings.** Lifts the C#/Go/Java/R tests from *one indicator per archetype* toward reference-value parity, catching FFI wiring bugs (swapped params, wrong multi-output field) the math-only core tests cannot see.
## What's here
- **`examples/rust/src/bin/gen_golden.rs`** + **`testdata/golden/*.csv`** — a Rust generator computing a deterministic OHLCV series plus the core's reference outputs for a curated archetype-spanning set: scalar (`Sma`/`Ema`/`Rsi`), candle (`Atr`), scalar multi-output (`MACD`), candle multi-output (`ADX`), pairwise (`Beta`). `nan` marks warmup. Regenerate with `cargo run -p wickra-examples --bin gen_golden`.
- **Parity runners** replaying the identical fixtures through each FFI (rel-tol 1e-6), each a standard test in the binding's existing suite (no `ci.yml` change — rides `dotnet test` / `go test` / `mvn install` / `R CMD`+testthat). A walk-up search locates `testdata/golden` regardless of run dir.
- **C#** (`bindings/csharp/.../GoldenTests.cs`) — ✅ validated locally, 7/7 pass.
- **Go** (`bindings/go/golden_test.go`) — ✅ validated locally, pass.
- **Java** (`bindings/java/.../GoldenTests.java`) — modeled on the archetype API; validated by CI (no local mvn).
- **R** (`bindings/r/tests/testthat/test-golden.R`) — modeled on the archetype API; validated by CI (no local Rscript).
## Notes
- The curated set spans every marshalling archetype; extending the indicator list is mechanical (add to the generator + regenerate). Bars/profile archetypes can be added next.
- No new CI jobs.
The first language stecker on the C ABI hub: a .NET binding exposing all 514
indicators as idiomatic `IDisposable` classes, generated from `wickra.h`.
## What's here
- **`bindings/csharp/`** — the `Wickra` .NET 8 package. `[LibraryImport]`
source-generated P/Invoke (`NativeMethods.g.cs`) plus idiomatic wrappers
(`Indicators.g.cs`), both generated from the committed `bindings/c/include/wickra.h`.
The binding owns no indicator maths — it only marshals types across the C ABI.
- **Marshalling, verified end-to-end against the native library.** Opaque handles
cross as `nint` kept alive per call via a `SafeHandle`; `bool` as
`[MarshalAs(U1)]` (Rust `bool` is one byte); a self-correcting
`DllImportResolver` validates the loaded library actually exports the Wickra
ABI. Tests cover one representative per FFI archetype (scalar, candle, pairwise,
multi-output, bars, profile, values-profile, order-book / array-input) plus
exact Sma reference values.
- **NuGet packaging** — `dotnet pack` produces `Wickra.<version>.nupkg`; the
release pipeline stages prebuilt native libraries under `runtimes/<rid>/native/`
for six target triples (win/linux/osx × x64/arm64).
- **`examples/csharp/`** — nine examples mirroring `examples/c/`: streaming,
backtest, multi_timeframe, parallel_assets, three strategies, and
fetch_btcusdt + live_binance.
- **CI** — a `csharp` job on the three OSes builds the C ABI, tests the binding,
and runs the offline examples. **Release** — a gated `csharp-publish` job packs
and pushes to NuGet (gated on `NUGET_API_KEY`, independent of the GitHub-release
job so a C# hiccup never blocks the C/C++ asset release).
- **Docs consistency wave** — README, CONTRIBUTING, CHANGELOG, examples/README,
the issue / PR templates, `sync-about.yml`, and `.gitattributes`.
The native Python / Node / WASM bindings and the C ABI are untouched; this is
additive. Publishing to NuGet stays gated behind the release tag and the secret.
