- kas/README.md: the real-time rationale rests on the feeder's bounded
queue depth, not ring size; the ring is 16 MiB (~84 s at 200 kHz,
~28 min at the 10 kHz cloud tick), a capacity for cloud-mode preload.
- BUILD.md, kas config, release checklist, cold-build workflow: only
forgefirm and meta-openglow (branch scarthgap) are cloned as
siblings; every ForgeFIRM source repo is fetched by pinned SRCREV.
- UPDATE-SYSTEM.md reads as the present-state design: the cloud-mode
compatibility baseline is the cloud client's configured firmware
version, not release metadata; decisions and open items listed
plainly.
- README.md states what GRBL mode still needs the Glowforge service
for (camera-referenced homing) and what runs without it.
- BRINGUP.md: generic build-host and fwup-lab references, the retained
reproductions of the no-fire drill, the System tab.
- LIGHTBURN.md: the arm-window timeouts are machine settings.
- forgefirm-image.bb describes forgectrl as the machine-services
daemon and points at the right backlog entry.
- American spelling throughout.
- LIGHTBURN.md: mandatory "Before you cut" safety section; the
walkthrough now reflects the firing machine (dry runs need the
layer output off or M5; live first-cut instructions); the homing
entry documents homing_mode and the gfcloud method; the machine
address is a placeholder.
- README.md: condensed safety section linking the full text and the
regulatory notes.
- INSTALL.md: "Regulatory and legal" section ahead of the install
steps; routine updates route through the panel updater rather than
the installer.
- BRINGUP.md: the release signing key is described as held offline
(no on-disk path); bench address and credential notes removed;
Next-work item 7 corrected (the installer embeds the production
release key); status entry for audit remediation Phases 0-1; the
GATE A kernel drills join the pending image-flash checklist.
- bench scripts: the target host comes from GF_HOST (or argv) instead
of a hardcoded address.
- laser_stream_test.py: per-session controller runs with a hermetic
cooling-verdict publisher; new assertions that every stream
terminates with FIRE clear (including M3 held to stream end) and
that no FIRE bit rides a zero-step gap; a cycle-churn session
exercises the stop/start seams.
Audit findings D-1, D-2, D-3, D-5, D-10, D-12, B-10, and the harness
half of D-4/G-1.
README: replace the stalled REST/GUI roadmap with what the firmware does -
GRBL mode over TCP for LightBurn/UGS/cncjs, optional cloud mode, the web
control panel, cameras, A/B install beside the factory firmware - plus the
supported hardware incl. the 8 MP camera limitation and a real roadmap.
kas/README: xvclk is the board's 24 MHz oscillator; the pin/push rule covers
every source repo; camera and motion sections are hardware-validated, with the
OV8856 caveat spelled out; the device-tree item closes with the control_12v
residue named; forgectrl is the machine-services daemon with two supervised
controllers.
LIGHTBURN.md: drop the pre-first-light status line.
BUILD.md: state the NXP firmware licensing and where the EULA lives on the
machine. The image now installs firmware-imx-lic, so the EULA text ships beside
the VPU/EPDC blobs it covers; a bbappend declares that package at parse time,
which is what makes it installable from an image recipe.
