Recognize baseline-dependent #JTD metadata at the shared layout owner before table sizing and decoding. Report unsupported partial metadata across all inspection workflows, preserve admitted PE/CLI and metadata header facts, and keep member identities and inventories unknown without the baseline.
A generated PE carrier reproduced complete coverage and a wrong standalone MethodDef token before the fix. Producer and actual CLI/MCP checks now cover all three inspections, normal metadata, retained comparison after source deletion, exact caller selection, source digests, unchanged bytes, and known header facts. Released .NET writer/reader sources establish framing applicability; natural PE occurrence and real CLR/Edit-and-Continue execution were not verified.
