Captain Bob, 2026-11-12: "Wire L2, keep L7 on". The table held the 128 cards of the 7-bit L1-L7 space; nothing read L7, and the rolling window recorded whatever the card said, so the 128 were 32 behaviours. - compudynamics.c: cd_tuning_word() sizes the table to 64 (L1-L6). - ssm_jacquard.c: card_bits() makes a card's 7-bit mask, L7 set, where a card is read, seeded and started (C4: 17 -> card 8); ssm_l8_force_config() still takes the 7-bit index, its L7 bit implied. - physics_execution_hooks.c, kernel vm_core.c: the rolling window records only while L2 is on (or before there is a config). - ssm_jacquard.h says what is wired, bit by bit (it said L7 was); v3/CLAUDE.md and the L8 reference corrected in place; FABRIC-3 XLVIII.21. Tests first, seen to fail against HEAD (logs/20261112-210510/kernel-tests): test_ssm_jacquard 4 of 7, test_physics_l2 1 of 4; all pass now. v4 reads no rolling window: acceptance is unchanged; the protocol runs next.

src/starkernel/
LithosAnanke — the bare-metal UEFI kernel that boots StarForth directly on
hardware (amd64/aarch64/riscv64). Built only via Makefile.starkernel; the
only valid acceptance test is the three-arch QEMU boot (see
.claude/CLAUDE.md), never make test.
kernel_main.c— kernel entry point, driving the boot milestones (console init, PMM, VMM, interrupts, timers, kmalloc heap, VM bootstrap).repl.c— kernel REPL.doe_log.c— kernel-side DoE (Design of Experiments) metrics logging.
Subdirectories:
arch/{amd64,aarch64,riscv64}/— per-architecture support (APIC/GIC/ PLIC interrupt controller, timers, boot/ISR assembly).boot/— UEFI loader, ELF loading, kernel command-line parsing.capsule/— capsule birth/run/load/validate pipeline.hal/— hardware-abstraction-layer implementation (console, framebuffer, VT100, memory, host services).hash/— XXHash64 content-addressing implementation.math/— kernel-build Q48.16 fixed-point arithmetic.memory/— physical/virtual memory managers and the kernel heap.pci/— PCI bus enumeration.virtio/— VirtIO block device driver.vm/— kernel VM subsystem (bootstrap, core interpreter, parity logging, capsule arena).
