Contributor guide
Research direction
The issue names the Go SDK and encoding/decoding of EvenTime, windows, and length prefixes, but gives no files or tests. Start by locating those Go SDK encoders and their counterparts in other SDKs, then compare behavior on matching values. Done means identified differences are resolved and validation confirms parity.
