appsketch-works/app-tiktok is a dedicated AppSketch Works repo containing a TikTok-specific app.json signature definition, directly corroborating the AppSketch "Feature Factory" product's per-app signature-authoring workflow documented elsewhere in the corpus, with TikTok confirmed as a named target app.

A recurring weekly '[Xinjiang Unicom/Xinjiang Mobile] Traffic Analysis Report' (新疆联通/移动流量分析报告), produced by a 'Carrier Front-End Analysis Team' (运营商前端分析团队), spans Feb-Jul 2023 in this batch. It reports each carrier's total/access bandwidth (Xinjiang Unicom: 1.88 Tbps total, 880 Gbps access; Xinjiang Mobile: 4.4 Tbps total, 1 Tbps access) and per-app server-IP/location/traffic breakdowns for 31 named foreign platforms including Telegram, WhatsApp, Twitter, Facebook, Discord, Snapchat, Gmail and YouTube, alongside domestic-app sections — direct evidence of an ongoing, carrier-integrated domestic monitoring program for China's Xinjiang region.

A weekly operational report documents newly-added blocking rules for 25 mobile apps (18 hosted overseas, mostly on Hong Kong-region Azure/Alibaba/Tencent cloud IPs), where analysts extract each app's domains, IPs, and distinctive URL paths (e.g. '/tigase/getLastChatList', '/user/getUserMoney') and log 'system disposition: newly added blocking action' for every one; matching raw keyword-object exports using the identical URL-path style confirm these hand-extracted paths are loaded directly as live filter-list entries in production.

appsketch-works/app-test (and its fork app-test-fork) hold AppSketch signature definitions (signature.json/app.json/basic.json) for a broad app set spanning global platforms (TikTok, WeChat) and, notably, a Chinese provincial government app — 陕西社会保险 ("Shaanxi Social Insurance") — plus consumer apps (OPPO, Xiaomi, QQ, TIM, 义乌购/Yiwugou), showing AppSketch signature development covers domestic government/consumer apps, not only foreign circumvention-adjacent apps.

TSG's app-traffic classification relies on an updatable "App Sketch DB" component (uploaded as a versioned file to each deployment). A version bump at the Xinjiang Unicom province-exit + IDC site increased identified application-traffic share from 23% to 68% of total traffic within days, with ByteDance-attributed traffic alone rising from ~100TB/day to ~500TB/day identified, illustrating both the scale of traffic under classification and that classification itself is a frequently-updated, centrally-distributed database rather than a static build-time artifact.

The AppSketch/MAAT signature system contains a systematically dated, patch-versioned catalog of FQDN-based detection signatures for dozens of individually named commercial VPN apps (e.g. V2VPN, V2Netvpn, Turbo VPN, LetsVPN, AdGuard VPN, Avira Phantom VPN, TouchVPN, FinchVPN, Opera VPN, Ultrasurf VPN, GoFly VPN), each modeled as an 'app' object in category 'networking' / subcategory 'tunnels' whose default deny_action drops the flow while sending both an ICMP-unreachable and a TCP RST to the client. At least 35 such distinct VPN-app signature objects appear in this batch alone, dated July-November 2024, with repeated 'Patch0N' revisions to the same app as its domains rotate.

Side-by-side internal performance comparison across Xinjiang (China Mobile carrier deployment, hostname cmcc-xj-server1-sapp-244), Fujian (domestic), and Ethiopia (E21) explicitly references the same 'app_sketch_maat' diagnostic log format at all three sites, confirming the identical AppSketch app-fingerprinting stack is used for domestic Xinjiang surveillance and for the exported Ethiopia deployment.
