I would use header for this:
(def chunk
(header :int-be
#(ordered-map
:type (b/repeated :byte :length 4)
:data (b/repeated :byte :length %)
:crc (b/repeated :byte :length 4))
#(count (:data %))))
The resulting data structure would not contain the field length in this
case. Length only gets used to configure the inner codec for the body (the
map with :type, :data and :crc). You can read this codec as: "Read a
big-endian integer, then use this value to construct a new codec to read
the body. When writing, count the :data field, write the length using :type and
then write the body".
