Console-VM + user-VM pair: real async message-passing relay
Console sessions now route through the same general VM-to-VM messaging system (Phase C) any VM can already use for its own reasons -- not a synchronous shortcut. Per direct instruction: real async MSG-SEND/ MSG-DELIVER (Option B), not a VM-EXEC-based synchronous relay, because messaging is a general capability, not a console-specific mechanism. New CONSOLE-CMD-EVENT message type (common:messaging.4th). New sk_repl_dispatch_line() (repl.c), called from both sk_repl_step and sk_repl_run in place of a direct vm_interpret(): if the active VM's own name has a live "<name>~user" counterpart registered, the raw input line is wrapped as an S"-embedded CONSOLE-CMD-EVENT MSG-SEND and interpreted on the console VM instead of being run directly -- the console's own next MSG-TICK (Hera's idle pump) delivers it into the paired user VM via VM-EXEC, same mechanism every other message already uses. Falls back to direct interpretation if there's no pairing, or if the line contains a `"` (known v1 limitation, warned about explicitly rather than silently mishandled). New capsule_console_birth() (capsule_console.h/.c): a bare VM whose only content is loading common:messaging.4th -- the console side of a pairing, parallel in shape to RUNCAP's user-VM birth but with fixed embedded content instead of a devblock read (no identity, no thumbdrive involved). New PAIR-TEST diagnostic word (mama_forth_words.c, matches RUNCAP-TEST's own precedent): births both halves of a pairing and registers the "<name>~user" mapping. Not the real pairing call site -- that's the eventual attach/onboarding flow -- this exists to exercise the relay live before that flow exists. Found and fixed a real, serious bug live: console_set_vm_name() stored the caller's raw pointer instead of copying it. mama_word_use() (USE) passes a VMRegistryEntry field living on its own stack frame -- once USE returns, that pointer dangles, corrupting every console tag after the first USE (observed directly as garbled "[[]" / binary-looking prefixes instead of "[CaptBob]"). Fixed at the source: console_set_ vm_name() now copies into internal storage. That surfaced a second, related bug across every console_get_vm_name()-based save/restore call site in mama_forth_words.c (BIRTH, VM-STEP, VM-EXEC, CONNECT-HERMES, CONNECT-ARTEMIS): saving just a pointer into the single internal buffer meant an intervening console_set_vm_name() call silently corrupted the saved value before the restore ever ran. New console_save_vm_name() copies into caller-owned storage; every save/restore site updated. Verified end-to-end, live in QEMU: typed WELCOME at a paired console VM -- it did not execute directly (no UNKNOWN WORD), printed ok immediately (queued, async), and on the next idle tick "[CaptBob~user] Minted identity -- default personality" appeared on its own -- genuine delivery and execution in the paired user VM through the real MSG-SEND/MSG-DELIVER pipeline. Console tags confirmed clean (no garbling) across all three architectures' full regression boot.

Retire emergency CLI: Zuse goes thumbdrive-resident, ACL.4th activated
Three tightly-coupled changes, verified together per Captain Bob's own "getting rid of the emergency cli" direction: 1. Zuse's identity is thumbdrive-resident, never system-resident. New zuse_genesis_marker_t (magic/version/zuse_pubkey[32]/crc) replaces zuse_cert_devblock_t's slot in the top-of-device fence -- the system now remembers only that a root identity exists and its pubkey, never a seed. zuse_cert_devblock_t is kept in the repo, marked superseded, no longer written by any code path. capsule_mint_identity() grows a genesis mode (issuer_vm=NULL): no cert is built or written (Zuse isn't verified against a separate signer -- she's recognized by pubkey match against the marker) and two new optional out-params (out_pubkey/out_seed) let the caller install the cert immediately after a genesis mint. New capsule_zuse_boot_try_attach() (capsule_zuse_boot.c), called from sk_repl_idle() on every fresh USB attach (the only point in the boot lifecycle a thumbdrive can actually be detected -- attach polling doesn't exist yet at kernel_main.c's old one-shot mint point, which is why that whole block is gone): no marker + blank drive -> genesis-mint; marker present + matching drive -> read its own user_identity_seed_t, install the cert. Either way, re-runs ACL-ZUSE-BOOT (zuse.4th) so zuse_session activates exactly like it always has for a same-boot cert install -- ACL-PIN only blocks redefinition, not re-execution, so no new C-side auth logic needed. 2. ACL.4th activated (capsules/init.4th) -- inactive all session until now. Found and fixed a real bug this immediately surfaced: zuse.4th's ACL-ZUSE-BOOT tried `['] ACL-ZUSE-BOOT ACL-PIN` from inside its own still-compiling definition -- the word isn't findable yet at that point, so the whole definition silently failed to compile every previous boot this session (dormant, since ACL.4th never loaded). Fixed: pin after the definition closes, not from within it -- it only needs to happen once anyway, and pinning doesn't block the re-invocation genesis/attach needs. 3. The unauthenticated emergency-CLI ACL bypass is retired (repl.c): `emergency_console = is_hera ? (zuse_session ? 0 : 1) : 0` deleted from both sk_repl_step and sk_repl_run. Every word run from Hera's own bare prompt now goes through ordinary ACL enforcement; emergency_console is driven only by the genuine C-level fault handler again. Added ZUSE-SESSION? (starforth_words.c), a read-only diagnostic matching ZUSE-PUBKEY@'s own precedent, to verify the whole chain directly rather than by inference. Verified end-to-end live in QEMU: fresh boot, no thumbdrive -> ZUSE-SESSION? reads 0. Attach a genuinely blank drive via QMP -> genesis mint fires automatically (no typing) -> ZUSE-SESSION? reads -1 (true). Hermes/Artemis both birth clean on all three architectures with ACL now actually enforced for the first time all session -- no denials, no UNKNOWN WORD beyond the deliberate POST self-test cases.

MINT: parameterize with full name, username, email, phone
Extends user_identity_seed_t (version 2) with fixed-size full_name/ username/email/phone fields -- plenty of unused pad space (4016 bytes) was already there. Deliberately NOT encoded into the DER cert's Subject field: that would mean building a real X.509 RDNSequence (OIDs for commonName/emailAddress, PrintableString/UTF8String tagging), well past this project's own stated "deliberately not a general ASN.1/X.509 [builder]" scope. This human-readable profile data isn't security-relevant the way pubkey/serial are (the only two fields CERTVERIFY/BINDSTEP actually check) -- it travels alongside the keypair in the plain identity record instead. capsule_mint_identity() takes full_name/username (required, validated non-empty and within their fixed field widths) and email/phone (NULL or empty = null, matching the schema's own nullable convention). The MINT FORTH word's stack signature grows to 4 string pairs ( fname-c fname-u uname-c uname-u email-c email-u phone-c phone-u -- ok? ). Verified live in QEMU: minted two real identities with real profile data -- Zuse (full_name "Konrad Suse", username "Zuse", zuse@pantheon.org) onto disk/zuse.img, and a regular user (full_name "Captain Bob", username "CaptBob", capt.bob@pantheon.org) onto disk/user1.img -- then read the raw devblock bytes back off both images directly and confirmed every field byte-exact at its correct struct offset. Clean 3-architecture regression boot confirms no side effects. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_019ZGkimpfyh63EZyRkNbkPD |

Phase E: MINT -- real keypair, Zuse-signed DER cert, working default identity
capsule_mint_identity() (new capsule_mint.h/.c): mints a fresh identity onto a blank/unminted thumbdrive -- real Ed25519 keypair from virtio_rng, a fresh drive_uuid (independent random draw, not derived from the identity seed, per FABRIC-3.md §F.8 decision 3), a Zuse-signed DER cert in the CERTVERIFY format, and a small working default personality (a real WELCOME word, not a stub -- FABRIC-3.md §F.6/§F.8's own "default personality content" question stays open, but whatever mints today must actually do something when RUNCAP births it). Refuses to overwrite a drive that already reads as a recognized home-blocks drive, mirroring WRITE(10)'s own refuse-on-non-blank posture (decided now, not just "reasonable by analogy" as §F.8 left it). x509_build_user_cert() (x509_ed25519.h/.c): the encode-side counterpart to the existing decode functions (x509_extract_ed25519_pubkey(), x509_verify_signature(), x509_extract_serial()) -- a minimal DER TLV writer producing exactly the fields those functions read. Host-tested round-trip against the real decoder before trusting it in the kernel, including a high-bit-serial case that exercises the DER integer-padding rule; all assertions pass (pubkey/serial round-trip, signature verifies against the real issuer, correctly rejects the wrong key and a corrupted signature). New user_identity_seed_t (user_identity_seed.h): the on-disk record for a minted identity's own keypair, same magic+version+fields+pad-to-4096+ real-CRC convention as zuse_cert_devblock_t and homeblocks_sig_t. Fixed devblock layout: sig(1), cert(2), seed record(3), default personality(4). New MINT word (mama_forth_words.c) and a small accessor (sk_repl_get_attached_blk_dev(), repl.h/.c) exposing the currently attached USB device regardless of home-blocks recognition -- MINT's own target is a blank drive, which by definition never sets Phase D's sk_repl_get_homeblocks_dev(). Verified end-to-end live in QEMU: MINT on a genuinely blank test drive, then (after a detach/reattach so the sig cache picks up the fresh header -- a known workflow gap, not fixed here, flagged for whoever builds the real Console onboarding flow) RUNCAP birthed a VM from that drive's own newly-minted content, and VM-EXECing its WELCOME word printed the default personality banner. The full mint-to-birth Tripod identity flow works end to end for the first time. Clean 3-architecture regression boot confirms no side effects on normal boot.

Phase D: RUNCAP -- runtime capsule construction from thumbdrive content
capsule_runcap_birth() (new capsule_runcap.h/.c): builds a heap-only, single-entry CapsuleDirHeader + CapsuleDesc + CapsuleNameEntry + arena from a home-blocks drive's identity_src region (skipping the first devblock, reserved for MINT's user_identity_seed_t record) and hands it to the existing, unmodified capsule_birth_baby() -- no new birth mechanism, matching FABRIC-3.md §F.6's own trace. Found and closed a real gap in that trace along the way: capsule_birth_baby()'s signature check calls capsule_get_signatures(), which unconditionally returns the compile-time-baked global array -- meaningless for a heap-built directory, where index 0 would compare RUNCAP's own content against whatever real capsule happens to occupy that slot in the baked array (guaranteed-wrong, not a security check). Added an explicit skip_pki_sig flag (0 for all 4 existing call sites, 1 for RUNCAP): that content's trust comes from CERTVERIFY, a separate root, not the capsule-PKI chain. Also found live: capsule_birth_baby() never sets the registry entry's own .name (every existing caller does this itself afterward via capsule_vm_registry_set_name() -- RUNCAP now does too), and capsule_exec_payload() requires a "Block NNNN" header per chunk of content or it's silently skipped, never executed -- not a bug, but necessary context for whoever authors MINT's default personality content next. Added a small accessor pair (repl.h/.c) exposing the currently attached home-blocks device/sig -- the same gap F.9's own BINDSTEP scoping had already flagged, needed by both. Verified end-to-end live in QEMU: synthetic identity-source content written directly to a thumbdrive image's raw devblocks (no capsule build, no mkcapsule) was read, compiled, and executed by a genuinely new VM via a diagnostic RUNCAP-TEST word -- confirmed via VM-EXEC invoking a word defined only in that source. Clean 3-architecture regression boot (no RUNCAP drive attached) confirms no side effects.

mama_forth_words: KILL must not physics-retire Hera before refusing her
S" Hera" KILL called vm_physics_retire(hera_id) before capsule_vm_kill()'s own Hera guard ever ran. Hera's self-referential parent_vm_id makes vm_physics_find_root_id() return her own id immediately, so vm_physics_retire() treated her as an unreachable root and zeroed the fleet's entire execution_heat_q48 sum -- silently, with only the harmless-looking "cannot kill Hera" message as output. Guard the retire call the same way capsule_vm_kill() already guards the actual kill. Three-arch acceptance boot, all clean to ok>: logs/20260813-083429/amd64, logs/20260813-083551/aarch64, logs/20260813-083738/riscv64. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

starkernel: item 4.2 -- Hermes native on the Stadium (complete)
Migrates Hermes's message/channel lifecycle onto the Stadium's unified heat/capacity economy: MSG-ALLOC/FREE-NODE and CH-ALLOC/FREE-NODE now route entirely through stadium_admit()/stadium_evict(), replacing the old local free-list + independent heat-field mechanism. Eight kernel-only STADIUM-* FORTH primitives (ADMIT, EVICT, RES@, RES-PULL, RES-PUSH, HEAT@, HEAT!, WORD-HEAT), VM.stadium_vm_id threaded through all three vm_core.c dispatch sites (replacing item 4.1's hardcoded vm_uuid_hera()), and the stadium_owner[idx] fix so evict-credit lands in the VM that actually admitted a patron, not whoever owned cell 0. This session's own contribution, on top of that pre-existing implementation: found and fixed two bugs blocking the item's own K≡1.0 conservation self-check (HERMES-K was reading 0, not 65536): - Q.SLOT admission-heat fix (capsules/hermes/init.4th): MSG-SEND/ CH-ACCEPT admitted with Q.1 (the entire fleet-wide "1.0" unit) per item, a leftover from before the Stadium migration when each message/channel had its own unconstrained heat field. Instantly drained the shared, finite reservoir. - Reservoir floor for word-execution admission (stadium_words.c): stadium_word_dispatch() (item 4.1) pulls STADIUM_WORD_HEAT_QUANTUM on every word dispatch, not just first admission -- exhausts a VM's entire reservoir in ~32 dispatches, starving any application-level economy sharing that VM's reservoir before it gets a chance to pull anything. word_dispatch_pull() now clamps word-execution's own pulls to leave a Q48_ONE/3 floor (same fair-share figure COMMON-CH's own floor already uses); application-level pulls are unaffected. - STADIUM-WORD-HEAT primitive + stadium_words_resident_heat(): the floor deliberately leaves word-execution residents holding real heat, invisible to HERMES-K's original formula (MSG+CH+reservoir, no term for word patrons). Adding this term closes K to exactly 65536 on all three architectures. Also rules on two open scope questions in FABRIC.md: MBR-ALLOC/ MBR-FREE-NODE stay off the Stadium (membership records have no heat field, never did -- the acceptance bullet's inclusion of them was a completeness gesture predating a check of the actual layout), and records the effort number (12 implementation files, +759/-120 lines). Verified: all three architectures boot clean, full self-test passes, Stadium conservation closes exactly (resident_sum + reservoir = Q48_ONE) at both the C/Stadium level and the FORTH-level HERMES-K check.

starkernel: item 3.8 -- VM identifiers as UUID/GUID
Punch list §25 item 3.8 complete. Added after starting item 4.1
surfaced the need to thread a vm_id into stadium_admit()'s new quota
parameter; Captain Bob ruled UUID/GUID rather than keeping the
narrower uint32_t.
New VMUuid type (vm_uuid.h/vm_uuid.c): two uint64_t halves, RFC-4122-
shaped for logging. Not real randomness -- checked directly against
QEMU 10.2.1's actual CPU feature set: amd64 RDRAND and riscv64 Zkr are
both real, available features here; aarch64 has no RNG property on any
CPU model including "max" (verified exhaustively via QMP
query-cpu-model-expansion). Captain Bob ruled a uniform fallback
across all three ISAs rather than a per-architecture split.
Fallback is a deterministic PRNG (splitmix64) seeded from the Mama
capsule's content hash, pre-filling a 16-entry FIFO pool at boot and
refilling with another batch of the same stream when exhausted --
exactly the shape requested. Same capsule booted twice produces the
same id sequence, preserving the dict_hash reproducibility this
session has relied on throughout.
Hera keeps a fixed, reserved all-zero id, not drawn from the pool --
capsule_birth.c uses vm_id == 0 as a load-bearing sentinel in three
places (KILL protection x2, fleet heat-fanout parent-chain
terminator), found by reading before writing any code.
Two real sentinel-collision bugs caught before shipping, same class as
STADIUM_CONTAINS_NONE: vm_uuid_none() (all-ones, not all-zero) for
"not yet assigned"/"no VM" placeholders; confirmed item 3.7's quota
table already used an in_use boolean rather than a vm_id sentinel, so
no second collision was actually possible there -- the dead,
never-referenced STADIUM_QUOTA_SLOT_EMPTY macro was removed.
Blast radius larger than first scoped, flagged mid-work rather than
silently absorbed: capsule_vm_physics.c/.h (the fleet heat-transfer
layer item 2.1 modified earlier this session) has its own vm_id-keyed
node table and walks parent_vm_id chains through the same identity
space, so it needed the same change, plus its callers in
mama_forth_words.c and sk_vm_bootstrap.c.
One live FORTH word contract changed, by explicit ruling: CAPSULE-BIRTH
was ( capsule-id -- vm-id ), a single cell -- can't hold 128 bits.
Captain Bob picked pushing two cells ("there is doubles support in the
FORTH std word set anyway"): ( capsule-id -- vm-id-hi vm-id-lo ).
MAMA-VM-ID changed the same way: ( -- 0 0 ).
Verified: full (not standalone-file) kernel rebuild to catch cross-file
breakage given the size of this change -- it surfaced the
capsule_vm_physics.c blast radius a narrower check would have missed.
Three-architecture boot (amd64, aarch64, riscv64), all reaching ok>
with identical dict_hash=0x3d4e1daf289da94f matching the item-3.7
baseline.

starkernel: restate VM fleet heat transfer on the virtual tick
Punch list §25 item 2.1 complete. vm_physics_touch() no longer takes a wall-clock timestamp -- it reads fleet_heartbeat_tick_count internally, which is execution-paced (vm_runtime.c:143), not wall-clock. VMPhysics.last_active_ns -> last_active_tick, VMFleetTouchSample.elapsed_us -> elapsed_ticks, and a new explicit `touched` flag replaces the old `> 0` sentinel (tick 0 is a legitimate value a first touch can land on, unlike wall-clock ns). Verified: three-architecture boot (amd64 x2, aarch64, riscv64), all reaching ok> with identical dict_hash=0x3d4e1daf289da94f matching the item-0.10 baseline. No new compiler warnings in the touched files. Honestly flagged, not fixed: with Tripod pruned to Hera alone (item 0.1), vm_physics_touch()'s fan-out has no other live VM to pull heat from, so the fleet-heat-sum acceptance criterion is trivially satisfied rather than genuinely stress-tested -- a real check needs Phase 4's multi-VM fleet. fleet_transfer_slope_q48's seed (65536/3) was calibrated for elapsed microseconds and has not been re-fit for elapsed ticks; left as-is rather than guessed, deferred to item 5.1's DoE work.
