ScottW514 0ceb4abc4a forgetest: cooling.fail-tier-stop waits for the crash fault to end with its session
The test raised a crash fault and handed the machine back with it still
standing. The engine trips the crash tier on one 1 Hz tick and ends the run
session on its next tick, which is when the fault and its hold clear ("head
crash fault cleared with the run session"). The supervisor has the new
controller up inside that second, and the test returned as soon as it saw
the new pid and the two log lines, so the runner's hand-back check could
read /cool/status before the clearing tick: phase run, hold true. A hold is
the run's doing by the baseline's rule, so the check recorded a leftover
and failed the test, though the wait that followed ended on its own.

Seen on the bench reference in campaign c-20260919202934-3d3a, the only
failure among 65 results: the trip at 20:54:44.871, the new controller at
20:54:45.094, the test's PASS line at 20:54:45, the session end at
20:54:45.863, and "cool=run/armed=False/hold=True ... -> waited" from the
hand-back check. The engine opened no session after that one; the 16 s the
check waited were the smoke phase that follows an armed session.

The test now asserts what the engine documents: after the restart checks it
waits up to 10 s for the verdict to leave CRASH, records how long that took
(fault_cleared_s) with the phase, verdict, hold and armed flags it found,
and fails when the fault does not end with the session. The machine is then
handed back in the engine's own post-job phase, which the baseline already
treats as the engine's work and not a leftover.

Proven: the cooling, artifact, campaign and queue host tests pass and the
catalog loads with the new source. No component source changed, so no pin
moves; the test's own source hash does, so its result comes from this
revision.

ScottW514 d482e76402 installer: a download that resumes and retries, and an install log
A field install failed on "firmware download failed", and worked after a
reboot. The download was one bare curl -fL: no retry, no resume, no bound
on a stalled transfer, and nothing on the machine recorded what had gone
wrong.

The download. download_fw makes up to five tries, 5, 15, 30 and 60 seconds
apart. Each try resumes the partial file (curl -C -) and is bounded: 20 s
to connect, and a transfer below 1 KB/s for 30 s ends the try. The file is
written as forgefirm.fw.part and takes its name only when curl finished;
the signature check that follows is what vouches for its content. A full
disk (curl 23) and a release that is not there (HTTP 404) end the tries at
once, because waiting cannot fix them. A partial file the server will not
resume (curl 33 or 36, HTTP 416) starts over. The loop is the installer's
own rather than curl --retry: the factory curl on the bench reference is
7.69.1, whose --retry does not count a resolver failure or a dropped
transfer as retryable, and older factory builds carry older curls. The
owner sees the reason in words with each retry, and the final failure says
that a re-run goes straight to the download, because the archives are kept.

The log. Every run appends to /data/log/forgefirm/install/install.log, in
the log tree's own line format (UTC, program "install"): the installer's
md5 (which revision ran), the factory version and the slots, the owner's
answers, each archive, each download try with curl's exit code, the HTTP
code and the reason, the machine's clock at each try (a wrong clock breaks
TLS), and after a failed try the address, the default route, the resolver
and whether github.com resolves; then the signature and identity checks,
the write, the boot selection, and the reason for any failure through
die(). The log is appended across runs, so the run that failed is still
there after the run that worked. Logging never fails the install.
forgectrl's log export carries the directory (forgectrl 0dae758).

Proven: tests/test_installer.py runs the installer's own functions under
sh against a scripted curl - a clean download, a resolver failure and a
dropped transfer that resume to the full file, the tries running out, 404
and a full disk ending them at once, a stale partial file starting over,
the TLS reason naming the clock, every log line in the tree format, die()
leaving its reason, and an unwritable log not failing the run. The whole
host suite, 409 tests, passes under Linux and the coverage lint is clean.
Bench: the same functions under the factory firmware's own shell (busybox
1.31.1 ash, the factory slot of the bench reference in a chroot) resumed,
retried, ran out of tries and logged exactly as under sh.

Acceptance: logs.tree-tail-export now plants a probe file in the install
directory and requires it back in the export bundle, its line intact and
its MAC and IPv4 address redacted, and requires an install log in the
bundle when the machine has one. The installer itself is not on the image:
the install page fetches it from master, so it is live with this push.

ScottW514 8232c8c9fe forgetest: image.network-boot - the boot does not wait on the network
A client that waits in ifup's foreground on a server's answer holds the
whole machine, because init starts the rest of the boot - sshd, forgectrl,
the console login - only after S01networking returns. A field machine sat
there forever on a router that refused DHCPv6 (the record is in the
meta-openglow commit that drops the DHCPv6 client). Nothing in the catalog
looked at the network boot path; this test does.

It asserts: wlan0 is in ifupdown's state file and no ifup is running; the
console getty is up; udhcpc runs with -b (it leaves ifup after three
unanswered discovers) and has been reparented to init; no DHCPv6 client is
named in /etc/network/interfaces, running, or on the image, and its hook
script is gone; IPv6 on wlan0 is the kernel's own - enabled, router
advertisements accepted, a link-local address up. A global address is
evidence only: a network whose router advertisement offers no SLAAC prefix
gives none. What a hostile server does to a client is a bench drill, not a
test.

covers is empty by design, as with setup.machine-name: the interfaces file
is layer content, in the platform identity of every fingerprint, so a
change there already makes every test necessary again.

Proven: the host tests for the parsers and the registration
(tests/test_image.py), and the whole host suite, 398 tests, under Linux.
The test's logic, run read-only on the bench reference against an image
that carries the client, fails exactly the four DHCPv6 checks and passes
every other one. The test fails on any image built from a meta-openglow
that still carries the client, so the kas lock moves to the layer head
that drops it.

ScottW514 cd4c176a87 Finish the x32 xy_microsteps default in the baseline test and the stream harness
The x32 default landed in forgetest/baseline.py and the driver, but two
callers still judged the machine at x8 and both failed on the host.

forgetest/tests/test_baseline.py: setUp seeded the fake machine from the x8
FIXED_SYSFS literals while enforce() compares against fixed_sysfs() of the
resolved mode, so x_mode, y_mode, step_freq and ramp_rate read as deviations
on a clean machine - 23 failures across BaselineTests and
TransientNotLeftoverTests. It seeds from fixed_sysfs() now, and the tick
expectations come from it (DEFAULT_TICK) rather than a typed 28160. The
xy_mode_of and ref_xy_mode unset/invalid cases expect 32, with an explicit
"8" case added that had no coverage. Two reference_preconfig dumps taken on
an x8 machine carry xy_microsteps = 8, because the markers are read at the
reference's own mode. wait_configured wrote the static CONFIGURED_MARKERS
where the function watches configured_markers() of the mode in force, and
the held-controller jog typed 221 steps for "4.144 mm", which is 1.036 mm at
x32; both derive from the mode now. 69 tests, all pass.

scripts/bench/laser_stream_test.py: STEPS_PER_MM was the x8 53.333, so the
X-peak check failed at 2133 steps against an expected 533. The whole harness
now derives from XY_MICROSTEPS_BASE/DEFAULT the way glowforge.h and
baseline.py do, which uncovered five more x8-only expectations behind the
first: the machine tick, the fire-gap limit (it grows as sqrt(k), not k - a
finer mode shortens the accel interval by sqrt(k) while speeding the tick by
k), the rung split in fire_spans, the density period and minimum burst
(laser_pulse_ticks is in x8 ticks and the stream scales it, so the config
keeps the x8 numbers and the measured lengths scale), and the decel/hold
budgets. Run against the null-sink build: all stream emission rules hold.

xy_mode_test.py's docstring still described the no-key case as x8 while its
own assertions had moved to x32.

No behavior change and no acceptance-catalog consequence: these are test
expectations and a bench harness, not image component sources. The coverage
lint is unchanged at 0 uncovered paths.

ScottW514 9a288b175b Track the x32 xy_microsteps default in forgetest and the bench tools
Acceptance baseline: XY_MODE_DEFAULT 8 -> 32, split out XY_MODE_BASE (8) for
the tick/ramp scaling, matching the driver. The mode-aware comparisons
(fixed_sysfs of the resolved mode) judge an unset machine at x32.

Host CI: xy_mode_test.py default and invalid cases expect x32/213.333/112640.

Bench tools: raster_dry.py and xy_pattern_accel.py set_mode() cleared the key
for mode 8, which relied on clear == the x8 default; clearing now yields x32,
so they set the mode explicitly and restore to x32. live_fire_drills
STREAM_RATE_HZ is the 28160 Hz laser reference tick, the same at every mode.

ScottW514 b17778f538 forgetest: verdict-cut holds the daemon under the report dead-man
laser.verdict-cut freezes the daemon so the verdict the controller
caches expires and the driver's pause tier holds the job, then resumes
and proves the job ran dark through the hold with the laser latch never
locked. The freeze was 3.5 s. The engine's report dead-man locks the
laser latch when the controller's report is older than 5.0 s while
armed, and the last report is up to 1 s old when the freeze starts, so
a 3.5 s freeze left only a half second of margin - a dead-man latch
lock reads exactly like the failure the test refuses.

The freeze is now 3.0 s: still past the 2.0 s the cached verdict takes
to expire (so the pause tier holds and the hold is seen), a full second
under the dead-man. No behavior changed, only the freeze the test
holds.

ScottW514 41417f820b forgetest: clear a latched controller error, bound the move-start check, and follow the fail-tier restart
Three acceptance tests broke on the WI-4/WI-5 firmware, all from a
behavior a change moved and no test tracked.

motion: soft limits are armed after a home (the driver's, since the bed
has no switches), so a jog past the bed is refused with error:15 - and
grblHAL then answers error:15 to every following G-code line, across a
fresh connection, until a blank line acknowledges it. A prior test's or
the baseline hand-back's rejected jog left that latch, and the next
test's first move failed with a stale error unrelated to the move.
clean_slate now clears it with a blank line before the first move. The
four "send G1, sleep, check Run once" sites are replaced by start_move,
which waits for Run on a bound and, when it does not come, names the
reply, the state, the drained messages and a forgectrl snapshot - the
capture that turned "the move did not start" into "answered error:15".

cooling.fire-watch-tiers: the FIRE fail tier now stops the controller
through the supervisor and starts it again, so leg 2's Grbl connection
dies mid-leg. It now records the pid, reads FIRE from the engine and
the latch from sysfs, waits out the restart, proves the supervisor
logged the fail-tier stop, and opens a fresh session for the legs that
follow; src/super.* added to its covers.

Proof: full forgetest host suite green; coverage lint clean (90 tests);
bench reference on the dev image, unattended queue: motion.* and
cooling.* pass, cooling.fire-watch-tiers and cooling.fail-tier-stop
pass with the button-lamp driver fix (grblHAL-glowforge).

ScottW514 db6015dc81 forgetest: cloud.mode-switch opens the lid behind the controller's start, ahead of the hunt
The supervisor holds every controller spawn until the enclosure is
closed (forgectrl 0.1.25), and the test opened the lid before it asked
for the cloud controller: POST /mode answered "waiting, the lid is
open" and the controller never came up. The round trip now switches
with the lid closed, polls /mode five times a second, and opens the
lid the moment the controller is running. The client requests its
connect-time hunt a few seconds after its start, right behind its
session, so the hunt still finds the lid open. The order is recorded
and judged: the hunt's request line must not be in the client's log
when the lid reads open (hunt_before_lid_open), and the test refuses
to start with the lid open. The catalog text tells the operator to
open the lid at once, with a hand ready on it.

Proof. Host: test_cloud_suite drives the round trip with the hunt
landing only once the lid reads open, as on the bench, plus the lost
race (the hunt requested before the lid opened fails the test with
"before the lid was open") and the start with the lid open refused;
8 mode-switch cases green. Bench reference (dev image 20260915001814,
forgectrl 0.1.25): cloud.mode-switch PASS in 118 s, the lid open 4 s
before the client requested its hunt, no refusal before the hunt's
end, the lens homed, the exhaust row unjudged, 5 service motions
after the lid closed, $H under gfhome homed in 48.4 s with 9 motion
windows. No catalog consequence beyond the test itself: its covers
map is unchanged.

ScottW514 f080d5d9cb Catalog: the cloud client's latch at the run, and a hold that never clears
The cloud client changes (python3-gfhardware: the latch unlocks at the
run and nowhere earlier, the warm-up is supervised, a live feed must
land and finish, fire needs a power byte first, the homing runner
always stops). This commit carries the catalog tests that hold the
part the bench can see.

forgetest/forgetest/suite/cloud.py:
- cloud.dark-print (new, kind operator, one press, dark by
  construction) replaces cloud.verdict-hold. The print arms on the
  press, waits for the engine's acknowledgment and runs: the laser
  latch is locked at the button and through the wait, unlocked only
  for the run (immediately before it starts), locked again when the
  job ends, and the print completes. The engine's own warm-up release
  stays proven by cooling.floor-and-warm-up.
- cloud.verdict-refuse (new, kind operator, one press, dark): the
  start gate far above the coolant and cloud_hold_max_s at its minimum
  keep the armed print under the warm-up past the bound. The client
  waits with the latch locked (sampled every two seconds), cancels at
  the bound with its own log line, never runs, closes the armed window,
  and the print ends ':cancelled'. The settings are restored.
- cloud.verdict-hold is retired: its release rode the loop heater at
  the flow-check duty against a gate one degree above the coolant,
  inside the upstream reading's noise band, and its run hovered for
  minutes with the engine's "warm-up stalled" line in the log. The two
  tests above prove the client's contract without the thermal race.
- cloud.oversize-stream already reads cnc/streaming back at both ends
  of the run, which is the readback the client now insists on. A
  forced streaming write failure has no seam on the board (the write
  goes to sysfs as root) and stays a host test.

tests/test_cloud_suite.py follows: excerpts and failure cases for the
two new tests in place of the retired one's.

Proof. Host: the forgetest unit tests. Bench reference:
cloud.dark-print passed (locked at the button, unlocked in the run,
locked after, ':completed'), cloud.verdict-refuse passed (held 60 s,
31 latch samples all locked, ':cancelled', settings restored);
motion.deadman's kill during $H ended the runner on SIGTERM alone; and
the retired cloud.verdict-hold passed once more on the new client
before it went (the latch locked through an 8 minute warm-up hold, the
release ran the print to completion).

ScottW514 7089a25721 Catalog tests for the supervisor: a kill during $H, a respawn behind the lid, the fail-tier stop, the 300 ms relock
The daemon's supervisor and engine change (forgectrl: controller death
as a signal, the homing runner and the kernel before a respawn, the
enclosure check before every spawn, the fail tiers ending the
controller). This commit carries the catalog tests that hold them.

forgetest/forgetest/suite/motion.py:
- motion.deadman gains a last phase: SIGKILL of the controller during
  $H (the web-service homing, run only with cloud mode enabled, the
  homing mode set and put back by the test). The homing runner must be
  gone before the respawn, the kernel idle when the new controller
  starts, no halt needed, and the pulse device held by the daemon and
  one controller. The head ends wherever the homing was.
- motion.respawn-gate (kind operator, the lid through the fixture where
  one is wired): the controller killed with the lid open. The
  supervisor safes (latch locked), reports waiting with why naming the
  lid, starts nothing while the lid stays open, and comes back verified
  when it closes, without a second motion probe.

forgetest/forgetest/suite/laser.py:
- laser.armed-kill reads the latch and the kernel state from sysfs
  every few milliseconds after the SIGKILL: the latch must lock within
  300 ms of the kill and the kernel leave running within a second (a
  death is a signal to the supervisor, not a poll). The emission bound
  stays at 2.5 s: the witness counts a window.

forgetest/forgetest/suite/cooling.py:
- cooling.fail-tier-stop (kind operator, one press, no emission): the
  crash watch's thresholds at their lowest make the head's own move
  trip the abort generator inside an armed, dark (S0) job. The engine
  logs the crash signal, the supervisor logs the stop and starts a new
  controller, the latch is locked, the kernel idle, no emission, the
  thresholds put back. The watch exists only inside the armed window,
  so the press is the arm, not a fire.

Proof. Host: the forgetest unit tests. Bench reference: motion.deadman
passed with the new phase (the runner gone in 0.9 s, the kernel idle
at the respawn, holders forgectrl and grblHAL_glowforge),
motion.respawn-gate passed (waiting 1.3 s after the kill with "the lid
is open", running and verified the moment the lid closed, no probe
line), cooling.fail-tier-stop passed (the signal at +0.27 s, the
controller pid 21823 to 22273, latch locked, emission 0).

ScottW514 2f2a4160af Stream and motion robustness: harness rules, catalog tests, the hand-back's counter scale
The GRBL driver's stream engine and its motion envelope change
(grblHAL-glowforge: the shipper writes outside the lock, a clamp inside
an armed window faults, the X/Y soft limits follow the home, the
machine's settings are pinned, the homing keys are clamped). This commit
carries the host rules and the catalog tests that hold them; the driver
commit follows, because its CI fetches these harnesses unpinned.

scripts/bench/laser_stream_test.py:
- Rule 28: a 300 ms producer stall while armed faults the stream with
  ALARM:17, the kernel sees no step burst (at most the planned steps per
  100 ticks), the stream ends dark, the latch sideband ends on the lock.
  The same stall unarmed is a warning: the move completes with every
  step, the clamp visible as the burst the kernel counts.
- Rule 29: a 300 ms stall of the sink's write leaves the producer on
  pace: no clamp, every step, lit through, dark at the end.
- The stand-in engine takes GFSINK_STALL_MS and GFSINK_WRITE_STALL_MS,
  null-sink only.

scripts/bench/z_envelope_test.py:
- Rule 10: homed (a gfcloud home), a program move past X max, Y max or
  the near edge alarms with ALARM:2 before any motion, a jog past the bed
  is refused with error 15, a move inside the bed runs, and a $20 write
  keeps the limits. The core repeats the last error for the line after a
  refused jog until an empty line clears it, so the rule sends one.

forgetest/forgetest/suite/motion.py:
- motion.soft-limits (kind auto, no emission): homes through the cloud
  suite's gfhome homing when the machine is not homed, then the three
  refusals (ALARM:2, the kernel counters still), the refused jog, the
  inside move, and the return to the corner read at rest.
- motion.deadman phase 2b: a 100 ms SIGSTOP mid-move, inside the
  kernel's queue: no underrun, the controller's log warns of the clamped
  late events, the move completes with every step (read at rest), the
  latch stays locked. The armed clamp is proven on the host (rule 28).

forgetest/forgetest/suite/cloud.py:
- gfhome_homing drains the driver's answer to $H once the session ends:
  it sits behind the status reports and passed for the reply to the
  caller's next command (a setting read as None).

forgetest/forgetest/baseline.py:
- The hand-back reads the position counters at the kernel's own
  microstep mode (cnc/x_mode, read before the sysfs restore puts the
  settings' mode back). At the x8 constant, an x32 machine's 30 mm read
  as 120 mm, beyond the return bound, and the displaced head was left in
  place. The dead band scales the same way. tests/test_baseline.py holds
  both.

Proof. Host: stream rules 1 to 29 and z_envelope rules 1 to 10 against
the null-sink driver, the forgetest unit tests. Bench reference:
motion.soft-limits passed (X 495 and Y 279 refused with ALARM:2 and
0.000 mm of kernel motion, X-1 the same, the jog error:15, the inside
move ran, back at the corner 0.0/0.0 mm); motion.deadman passed with
the new phase (92 late events clamped, max behind 92.3 ms, no underrun,
30.0 mm counted, latch locked) and the hand-back jogged the head back
under the x32 scale.

ScottW514 e9d5f3c842 Laser harness rules and catalog tests for the emission gates
The GRBL driver's emission gates change (grblHAL-glowforge: the per-tick
fire gate, the latch with an owner, the cooling verdict's two tiers, and
the arm-flow gates). This commit carries the host rules and the catalog
tests that hold them; the driver commit follows, because its CI fetches
these harnesses unpinned.

scripts/bench/laser_stream_test.py:
- Rule 24 is the verdict's pause tier: the client holds the job under the
  open window, the first deceleration runs lit to the stop (the dark lead
  before the stop is at most 1000 ticks: the producer's lead plus one
  shipper period), a resume under the standing verdict moves dark and is
  held again, the clean verdict resumes lit with no press, and the latch
  sideband carries only the arm's unlock and the program end's lock.
- Rule 25 is the fail tier: AIRFLOW mid-cut ends the job with ALARM:3,
  the stream ends dark well short of the line, the sideband ends on the
  lock, and a resume under the clean verdict that follows resumes nothing.
- Rule 26: a sender change mid-M3 holds the job with the deceleration
  dark: the gate follows the window on every tick.
- Rule 27: a verdict that goes stale holds the job at the cache's own
  expiry, lit to the stop, never a poll later; the engine's return
  resumes lit.
- The stand-in engine publishes the verdict name and has a stale mode;
  the session steps gain expect_text, reconnect and a wait_state timeout;
  every session reads the latch sideband (GFSINK_LATCH_LOG).

scripts/bench/laser_lifecycle_test.py:
- Rules 11 to 15: the pause tier resumes with no press and no prompt, the
  fail tier ends the job and nothing resumes it, a sender change during a
  re-arm cancels it, a jog does not hold the window open, and a press
  counts only after the button has been seen up. The stand-in engine
  takes a live verdict dict. start_armed_move waits for a fresh prompt
  and a fresh armed message: a press that lands before the wait has
  begun is not consent, and the old stale match let one land early.

forgetest/forgetest/suite/laser.py:
- laser.verdict-cut (kind live, one press): a 40 mm M3 line; the test
  pauses the daemon for 3.5 s so the verdict goes stale (the settings
  route is idle-gated and the engine reloads its gates at a session
  start, so no setting can trip a pause mid-cut; the crash tiers need a
  physical knock). The controller must hold with the SoC latch and the
  hardware button latch both clear in every sample, emission must read 0
  before the resume, and the clean verdict must resume the cut lit with
  no press and no prompt; M2 disarms as usual.
- laser.armed-kill asserts that the respawned controller comes up with
  the latch still locked.

Proof: both harnesses pass against the driver change on the host, and
the forgetest unit tests pass. On the bench reference, laser.verdict-cut
passed with no gap in the cut (held at +1.71 s after the pause began,
both latches clear in every sample, emission 0 at +2.06 s after the
hold, resumed lit at +4.0 s with the beam detector 678 counts over idle,
kernel drift 0.0 mm, disarmed 0.1 s after Idle) and laser.armed-kill
passed (emission 0 at +1.8 s after the supervisor's stop and +2.1 s
after the SIGKILL, latch locked, respawned with the latch locked, button
dark). Two earlier verdict-cut runs shaped the driver: a pause that
locked the latch resumed dark, because a lock sets the hardware button
latch, and a hold taken a poll after the gate closed left a several-mm
gap.

Catalog: one test added and one extended; both cover src/** of the
driver through the existing laser covers.

ScottW514 d8b8adaef4 forgetest: the setup suite, and the sensors check asks nothing
The commission.* tests are setup.* (subsystem "setup"): suite/setup.py,
setup_dark.py, setup_sheet.py, and the host tests test_setup_*.py. The
coverage maps name src/setup.* in place of src/commission.*, the record
is setup.json, and the bench seed in forgetest.init creates
/run/forgefirm/setup-override.

setup.check-sensors follows the check as it is now: no question is
asked and no setting is written. The test reads the settings before
and after and fails on any change, and fails at once if the check
opens a prompt. The host test drives the fake daemon with no prompt
and proves both outcomes.

Proof: test_setup_dark.py, test_setup_sheet.py, and
test_setup_suite.py pass (46 tests). The coverage lint names
src/commission.c and .h as uncovered until the forgectrl pin moves to
the revision that carries the rename.

ScottW514 884d014d2c Pin forgectrl 0.1.24 (verified fan writes) and cover the lost-duty put-back
forgectrl 0.1.24 = 2380e07: every fan duty write is read back and
retried, a duty a device lost is put back by the tick, and the airflow
fault names the duty commanded and the duty in force. The corner card
of the sheet on the bench reference was held as a slow air-assist fan
after a run-duty write the head never took; nothing checked.

Acceptance: cooling.fan-duty-readback (auto, grbl) opens an M8 session,
reads every fan's run duty back, writes the head's air-assist register
back to the idle duty and the exhaust PWM to zero behind the engine's
back, and holds both to their run duties again within a few ticks, each
loss named in the log, the session OK to its end, the idle duties after
M9. Covers the head driver too. On the bench reference with forgectrl
0.1.24 hot-deployed it PASSED: both duties back after 0.5 s.

ScottW514 a9f0ad0d51 Take forgectrl 0.1.23's theme.css into the forgetest page
The shared theme gained the release dialog's styles in forgectrl; the
copy the acceptance page uses follows it, as check-ui-vendor requires.
2026-09-12 12:58:27 -04:00
ScottW514 f41464cc58 Pin forgectrl 0.1.22 (the releases-API check and the release dialog) and cover its routes
forgectrl 0.1.22 = 0235a88: the release check reads the GitHub releases
API and never requests the firmware file's URL, the daemon checks daily,
and the panel raises a per-release dismissable alert and runs the install
from one dialog.

Acceptance: update.release-check (auto) exercises GET /update/release,
POST /update/check (a machine with no route to the API answers 502, which
the drill records and steps over), the v<semver> shape and `new` of a
published release, and the dismissal round trip, and puts the dismissal
back. forgectrl.auth's unauthenticated-write list gains /update/check and
/update/dismiss. Coverage lint: 84 tests, 0 uncovered paths; the
forgetest unit tests pass (373). On the bench reference (dev image
20260911203113 with forgectrl 0.1.22 hot-deployed) every check of both
tests passed; the runs were marked FAIL only by the hand-back baseline,
because the controller is gated until the changed privacy advisory is
accepted again.

ScottW514 20c6256527 forgectrl 0.1.21: the release check reads the tag from the first hop
Pin forgectrl at 92cead6 (0.1.21). The published-release check reads
the release tag from the first redirect hop instead of the end of the
chain, where the asset store's URL carries none; every image through
v0.0.3 reported "release server error (HTTP 200)" against a published
release. The forgectrl commit carries the proof (relcheck_test in its
CI). The update.slots-and-signature covers map names the new
src/relcheck.c and src/relcheck.h so the coverage lint stays whole. A
catalog test of the check against a published release is held for a
later change.

ScottW514 7b8f72b632 Run the commissioning sheet as a fresh machine, and pin forgectrl 0.1.18 (the lens frame)
forgectrl f8ddb17 puts the lens frame in one place and writes the focus
window before the card's controller starts, after two commissioning
cards ended in ALARM:2 on a Z the wizard sent from one source while the
controller's Z limit stood on another. The acceptance run had passed
only because the bench's settings already held the stops from an
earlier focus run, so the run is now a fresh machine's.

commission.sheet clears the three lens settings inside its Restore
before the cards, checks that the frame runs in the fallback window,
and, after the focus card, that the settings hold the window the ladder
ran in (the stops found or the fallback), that every ladder height lies
in that window's reach, and that the program served now agrees with
/status. Every served program's Z is checked against the reach /status
reports before the card starts, so a stray Z fails the test with nothing
burned. The test covers src/lens.*. The host mock in
tests/test_commission_sheet.py mirrors the daemon (the /status lens block
from the settings, the ladder served from the settings, the window
written at the focus start); two regression tests reproduce the defects:
a focus result naming a window the settings do not hold, and a served
program with a Z beyond the reach. 10/10 green.

scripts/bench/z_envelope_test.py, the grblHAL CI harness, adds the
referenced-lens cases: with forgectrl's marker and the shared settings,
the fallback window and a 14/20 window run to the ends of their reach
and two half-steps past either end alarms, and a count of 41 falls back
on its side alone. Passed on the null-sink build. The bench page's
description of the harness follows.

The forgectrl pin moves to f8ddb17 (0.1.18); every test covering
forgectrl re-runs.

ScottW514 c47f7d9a86 Put the head back after the hold in the disarm test
laser.disarm-in-hold streams a 40 mm move, feed-holds it two seconds in,
waits out the disarm grace, and then resets out of the hold. The recovery
put the laser and the controller back and left the head where the hold
had caught it: 11.34 mm along on the bench reference, 605 counts, which
the hand-back jogged out and reported.

The head goes back now, by the distance it actually travelled rather than
the distance the move asked for: the hold catches it at a slightly
different point every run - ten millimetres nominal at F300 for two
seconds, 11.34 measured - so the kernel counters before the move and
after the reset are what the return jog is built from. Where it stopped
and where it ended go into the evidence.

This is not the fault the M5 rapid job had. That job's moves netted plus
twenty by construction; this one stops part-way on purpose, and the
recovery simply never returned it.

laser.armed-kill has the same shape, a kill mid-fire that stops the head
where it stops, and is left alone until a run says whether it needs the
same treatment.
2026-09-10 13:58:23 -04:00
ScottW514 c217e24905 Put the head back at the end of the M5 rapid job
laser.m5-rapid-dark cut 20 mm out and then ran the two rapids the test is
about, one back and one out again. The three net to plus 20 mm, so the
job ended with the head 20 mm from where it started, every run: 1067
counts at 53.333 per mm, which the hand-back jogged out and reported.
That one is dirt, and the position dead band was right to leave it alone
- it is 20 mm, not the step a return rounds to.

A third rapid, back 20 mm with a short dwell, ends the job where it began.
It sits inside the sampling window and after the M5, so it is one more
rapid that must be dark, which is what the test already asks of the other
two: the assertion is wider, not narrower. The operator's clearance step
is unchanged, because the head still needs its 20 mm of +X.

Every job list in the suite that moves in G91 now nets zero on X
(cooling.py, laser.py twice).

ScottW514 b94c990bbc Leave the lens to the cloud client in cloud mode
cloud.verdict-hold printed to completion and then failed its hand-back on
head/z_mode=0. That job's header carried ZSmd 0, gfhardware's
set_mode_from_puls turns that into z_mode 0, and z_mode 0 is full step
(lenshome.c): the cloud client had set the lens the way the pulse file it
was playing asked. Nothing was left behind - the machine did what the job
said.

The baseline already skips nine attributes in cloud mode, for the reason
written above the list: the cloud client sets its own values for them
from every pulse header, and forcing the GRBL values under it would be
the baseline configuring another controller's machine. head/z_current and
head/z_mode are the same thing and were not on the list. They are now, in
cloud mode only; in GRBL mode the pair is still checked against 1 and 1,
which is the half of this an exemption could quietly break, so a test
holds it.

Host-proven: 89 baseline unit tests.
2026-09-10 13:08:33 -04:00
ScottW514 8d8ca2a8c6 Judge a hand-back on what a run left, not on the machine still working
A leftover is dirt a run left behind. Four of the checks were reporting
something else: the machine part-way through work of its own, which it
finishes on its own a few seconds later. Each one failed a run that had
done nothing wrong.

laser.arm-wait-lid found it. The test passed every check it makes and
failed on cool=smoke/armed=False/hold=False. The smoke clear is the
engine's post-job work - run duty for smoke_s after an armed session,
timed, ending by itself (cool.c, Cool_Smoke) - and the machine was idle
fifteen seconds later without being asked. Armed and hold were both
false: nothing had been left.

The four, and what each was catching:

  cool         a phase alone (the smoke clear, a cooldown). Armed or
               holding stays a leftover: the run left a job alive and the
               engine is keeping the fans up for it.
  controller   the supervisor's own start. A takeover ends by starting
               forgectrl again, and the respawn runs the liveness probe
               and the lens reference before it reports running and
               verified. The run had put it back.
  state        the ring draining to the end of a job. An underrun stays a
               leftover and is still acknowledged with cnc/stop: that one
               is the run's.
  leds         read_led read brightness, write_led writes target, and the
               smooth trigger fades brightness toward target. An LED the
               machine had already released still read lit mid-fade, and
               the restore called itself done before the fade had moved.
               Judged on target now: a run that left the button lit left
               a target standing.

The waiting, the restoring and the reporting of anything a run actually
left are unchanged. What changed is which readings count as dirt.

Host-proven: 87 baseline unit tests, two of them new - a fading button
LED is not a leftover, a lit one is.

ScottW514 4fbf14195b Wait for the purge fan's draw, do not read it in the same second
The airflow check reads the purge fan's off current with the fan off, and
the stand-down that follows commands it back on. The guard that proves
the machine was handed back whole read the draw immediately, so what it
got back was the off current the check had just measured: on the bench
reference, 74 against a 300 floor, with the fan drawing 631 a moment
later. The check failed for having worked.

The current follows the command; it does not arrive with it. The guard
now waits for the draw to reach the floor, up to PURGE_SPINUP_S, the way
the controller below it is already waited for, and logs how long it took.
It is no weaker: a fan that never reaches its floor still fails the
check, and the message now says how long it was given.

Pin: forgectrl 0.1.17 (a9e7073, the air assist and the purge in the
diagnostic run posture - the reason that check measured an idle fan and
wrote a floor from it).
2026-09-10 11:59:47 -04:00
ScottW514 d3fe1d90b9 Hand the machine back, do not describe what is wrong with it
The hand-back is the promise that a run leaves the machine where it found
it. Two of its checks reported instead of restoring, and the machine sat
in the state the run left it in.

The cooling engine: a run that ends without ending its job leaves one
alive behind it - the engine armed and holding for a job that is never
coming back, the fans at run duty. The check waited two minutes for that
to resolve itself, which it cannot, and wrote "failed: still
run/armed=True/hold=True". On the bench reference the fans then ran for
an hour.

The pulse ring: bytes the last job never played sit there, and the next
run replays them before its own. The check refused the return jog and
wrote "clear the ring (controller restart) before moving" - the
instruction, to a log, instead of the action.

Both end the same way: stop the controller and let the supervisor bring
it back. The job goes, the arm and the hold go with it, and the ring is
empty on the way in. stand_down() does that and proves it settled;
the cooling check calls it when the engine will not idle on its own, and
the return jog calls it when the ring has residue, refusing only if bytes
survive a restart. A leftover still reports what it found - the record of
what the run did is the point - but it reports having fixed it.

Host-proven: 62 baseline unit tests, including one that the hand-back
calls the stand-down for ring residue rather than describing it.
2026-09-10 11:34:27 -04:00
ScottW514 594b6990fd Stop a finished run's clock
Run.snapshot() computed elapsed_s from the current time on every call,
whether the run had ended or not. The page shows the last run until the
next one starts, and it polls, so a finished run's figure went on
counting: the result badge said FAIL beside a number still climbing, and
the run read as still going. On the bench reference a test that ended
after 5082 s was showing 5242 s and rising.

The figure a finished run should carry was already recorded next to it:
finished["duration_s"], fixed when the result was written. snapshot()
now returns that once the run has ended, and the live count only while
it is running.

Host-proven: two unit tests - a finished run's clock reads its duration
and does not move across a poll, a running one's still climbs.
2026-09-10 10:43:46 -04:00
ScottW514 57ba3454b4 Clear a setting the only way the daemon accepts, everywhere it is cleared
An empty form field never reaches the request, so POST /settings with an
empty value in the body carries no key at all and the daemon answers 400,
"no known setting in request". Only the query-string form gets an empty
value through. Measured on the bench reference:

    POST /settings -d "lid_policy="   -> 400, the value unchanged
    POST /settings?lid_policy=        -> 200, the key cleared

Three places in the suite already knew this and say so in a comment; two
did not.

motion.lid-policy-hold restored with the form body, so on a machine whose
lid_policy has never been set the restore was refused and the test failed
its own check. It now uses the query-string form for the empty value, as
the others do. This is the same test as the commit before: that one
stopped it from writing the word "cancel" where the machine had nothing,
and this one lets it write the nothing.

cloud.mode-switch had the older shape of the same fault: it restored
homing_mode to the literal "none" where the machine had it unset. On the
bench reference the restore branch never ran, because that machine homes
through the cloud, so it has not fired yet; on a machine with homing_mode
unset it would have. It now restores exactly what it found.

The rest of the suite was audited for this and is clean: camera.key-read,
cooling.critical-tier, cooling.tec-drive, cooling.crash-watch-plumbing,
cooling.fire-watch-tiers, cooling.floor-and-warm-up, cloud.verdict-hold,
forgectrl.settings, logs.levels and motion.xy-microsteps all either guard
the empty value or go through the shared Restore helper, which has always
done it correctly. commission.cloud-header-capture uses that helper too.
2026-09-10 10:26:25 -04:00
ScottW514 d58ee39086 Hand lid_policy back unset where the machine had it unset
motion.lid-policy-hold read the setting as

    was = (fc.settings() or {}).get("lid_policy") or "cancel"

and wrote `was` back at the end. On a machine that has never set the
policy the setting reads as the empty string and behaves as cancel, so
the `or` turned "unset" into the word and the test handed the machine
back carrying a setting it did not arrive with. The hand-back reported
it, restored it, and failed the test.

The value is now captured exactly, empty included, and restored as
captured; the default belongs to reading the value, never to writing it
back. The read-back check gets the same default, so it no longer compares
None with the empty string. lid_policy_in_force carries the effective
policy into the evidence, which is what the old expression was reaching
for.

Found on the bench reference, on the run after the position dead band let
motion.lid-cancel-home through. The four other places in the suite that
read a setting with `or` are safe: two default to the empty string, which
is what unset is, and two feed a check rather than a restore. The shared
Restore helper captures raw values and writes the empty string back for
unset, as this now does.

Only this test's earlier passes are invalidated: the change is inside its
own body, and the per-test source hash of the other eleven motion tests
is unchanged (checked against the file before the edit).
2026-09-10 10:13:16 -04:00
ScottW514 b2c42f0cc3 Do not fail a hand-back on the step the counters round to
The post-run pass compared the kernel position counters exactly, so a
test that put the head back within a hundredth of a millimeter failed
whenever that distance did not round to the same step.

motion.lid-cancel-home found it on the bench reference. The test cancels
a job with the lid twice and the controller returns the head to the job
start each time, landing 0.038 and 0.037 mm out - the same figures as the
run before it, which passed. This time the two returns left four steps on
X, 0.075 mm at 53.333 steps per mm, and the hand-back called it a
leftover. Twenty-three runs of that test, all passing, on returns of the
same accuracy: whether the residue rounds to zero is chance, not a
property of the machine or of the test.

A difference inside POSITION_DEADBAND_MM (0.1 mm, five steps at x8) on X
and Y is now the quantization rather than a leftover. The head is still
put back, so nothing accumulates over a campaign - only the failure goes.
Z stays exact: the return never moves the lens, so a Z difference is
still a leftover and still unrestorable.

Host-proven: four new unit tests on the boundary (four steps and a moved
Z on either side of it, and an unreadable reading), and the forgetest
suite.
2026-09-10 09:53:27 -04:00
ScottW514 1dd6ad608b Press the button when the machine asks, not when its LED is on
The sheet handed the bench actuator every press after the operator's
presence press, and the actuator pressed every time - into nothing. On
the bench reference all six cards were pressed before the card asked:
the frame by 8 s, the focus by 33, the floor by 10, the dose curve by 8,
the corner by 9, and the flow-load card by 69. The operator then pressed
all six himself, which is the opposite of what the ready gate promises.

arm_press() waits for hw.button_lit(), which is true when any button LED
is on, and burn() started that wait before run_check had even started the
wizard. The button is lit through parts of a card that are not the arm -
the lens reference, the program on its way to the controller - so the
wait ended at once, the press landed before the job waited for it, and
the thread was gone by the time the real cue came. forgectrl uses the
same predicate but only inside the job's own sample callback, with the
tube still dark, where a lit button does mean the arm.

The machine already says when it wants the press: a live check opens a
`press` wait prompt at that moment, and run_check sees every prompt. It
now presses there, through a new Ctx.press_now() - no LED read, no
waiting thread, no timing guess. That retires the per-card lit-timeout
column of CARDS, which existed only to give the flow-load card's coolant
settle enough room for a wait that was reading the wrong thing.

The four grbl-driven arm_press() callers in laser.py and cooling.py are
left as they are: they call it with the machine idle and its LEDs dark,
so the level read is the edge they mean. The same shape would bite them
if that ever stopped being true.

Pin: forgectrl 0.1.15 (6e69479, the flow-load tail ending at the coolant
peak and the way out of a finished setup page).

Host-proven: 357 forgetest unit tests, including two new ones - the
actuator presses on the prompt with button_lit stubbed false throughout,
so the LED is provably not consulted, and the press falls to the operator
without a takeover.
2026-09-10 08:41:53 -04:00
ScottW514 f0c40e7d4f Name every machine after its own MAC address, and drop mDNS
One name for every machine was wrong: an operator with two of them on a
network had one forgefirm.local, and mDNS does not work on many networks
at all. The machine now calls itself forgefirm-<xxxx>, from the last four
hex digits of its WiFi MAC address, and sends that name with its DHCP
request, so a network with dynamic DNS publishes it and a router lists
the machine by name. The name is the same at every boot, two machines
take different names, and no serial number leaves the machine.

forgefirm-hostname (new): reads the wlan0 MAC address (eth0 on a machine
with no WiFi) at S38 in rcS, after udev has probed the network drivers
and before poky's hostname.sh reads the file and before the network
starts. The rootfs is read-only, so the name is written through a
bind-mounted copy under /run/forgefirm. A bounded wait covers a slow
probe. hostname:pn-base-files is "forgefirm": the name before S38, and
the fallback when no MAC address can be read.

avahi is deleted - the bbappend, the daemon configuration, the service
file, the image install and the distro block. The address is the way in
that works on every network, and the DHCP name covers the rest.

forgefirm-banner: the marker lines are gone. "# ForgeFIRM addresses" and
"# end" delimited the address block inside /etc/issue, and getty prints
every line of that file, so both markers were on the console. The script
now keeps the image's own text in a second copy under /run/forgefirm,
captured once per boot before the first write, and renders the whole
banner from it. The block is the addresses alone: no mDNS name.

forgefirm-image.bb: the ForgeFIRM mark, under the OpenGlow one the base
image carries, with the version on the mark's own last line,
right-justified to the mark's last column. The mark is written once and
rendered per reader, because /etc/issue is parsed by busybox getty (a
backslash or a percent sign starts an escape, so the art goes in with
every backslash doubled) while /etc/motd is written out as it is. Widths
are measured in columns, not bytes: the color sequences take no room on
the screen. /etc/issue.net stays unused - the machine tells a client that
has not logged in nothing.

Acceptance: commission.mdns-announce is replaced by
commission.machine-name, which checks the name against the MAC address,
the bind-mounted /etc/hostname, the DHCP client's hostname option, the
banner's addresses, and that no mDNS responder is on the image; it covers
nothing by design, like the test it replaces. forgectrl.auth gains the
own-name Host check and its refusal with a domain on it. image.health
checks the /etc/hostname mount and the version on the mark's last line in
both files. commission.ssh-until-reboot asserts there is no
pre-authentication banner. commission_dark's lens coverage widens to
src/lenshome.* so src/lenshome.h is covered; the lint is clean at 83
tests.

Pins: forgectrl 0.1.14 (9e5330f, the hostname certificate and the Host
rule), meta-openglow ced2af2 (the DHCP hostname option and the motd mark)
in the kas lock.

Proven on the bench reference, hot-deployed and rebooted (image
20260910000208 dev): hostname forgefirm-b00a from MAC 2c:6b:7d:0d:b0:0a,
live and in the bind-mounted file; the DHCP client running with
-x hostname:forgefirm-b00a; the console banner and the motd carrying both
marks with the version aligned to the mark's last column, no marker line
and no .local name; forgectrl regenerating its certificate for the new
name. Host tests: 357 forgetest unit tests, forgectrl clean under
-Werror, tls_test and sanitize_test.

ScottW514 d858a23f45 Carry the panel stylesheet into forgetest
The acceptance page shares theme.css with the panel byte for byte, and forgectrl's copy gained the setup header's Download logs button. CI caught the drift, which is what that check is for; the pinned revision decides, so the copy follows.
2026-09-09 19:53:09 -04:00
ScottW514 c7b80ab2e8 A test that does not hand the machine back fails
The baseline has always examined the machine after every run and recorded
what the run left behind. It did nothing else with it: the leftovers went
to the log and the evidence, and the test still reported PASS. So a check
could measure correctly, walk away with the machine in a state nobody
chose, and be recorded green.

That is how the purge fan came to be left off by the airflow check. The
leftover was not even watched, but had it been, it would have been noted
and the test would have passed anyway, and an operator would still have
met the airflow hold at their first fire.

A post-run leftover now fails the run. One the baseline put back fails it
too: the restore is the bench cleaning up after a defect, not the defect's
absence. The message names what was left.

The baseline watches the head as well as the motion side now: purge air
on, which is how the machine idles, and the lens motor at its hold current
in half step, which the lens checks and the sheet cards take and must hand
back. The airflow check proves the machine is whole rather than merely
measured: afterward the purge fan must read commanded-on and must draw
above the floor the check itself just wrote.

The pin takes forgectrl 0.1.13 (a2d73ef), which restores the idle posture
after a diagnostic, fixes the lens session's takeover flag, and gives the
setup a Download logs button, since the panel's Logs tab is unreachable
until the setup is complete.

Expect this to find things. A test that has been handing the machine back
imperfectly has been passing until now, and the first campaign under the
rule is where that shows.
2026-09-09 19:44:24 -04:00
ScottW514 468e92655a Teach the manifest guard test about the version file
The guard keeps scripts/manifest-from-tree.py and forgefirm-image-manifest.bbclass computing the same identity, so it pins the skip list by value and the new suffix failed it. It now expects the version file in both places, and a second case proves the point the change exists for: setting the release number leaves the layer hash where it was. My miss: I proved the identity by hand and pushed without running the unit suite first.
2026-09-09 18:28:47 -04:00
ScottW514 64301d3221 Keep the configuration files inside /data/forgefirm; pin the three components
ForgeFIRM's own files live under /data/forgefirm; two configuration
files did not. The machine settings sat at /data/forgefirm.conf, in the
root of /data beside the factory's own files, and the cloud-mode
configuration sat at /data/etc/gfhome.conf, inside a directory the
factory owns. Both move:

  /data/forgefirm.conf   -> /data/forgefirm/forgefirm.conf
  /data/etc/gfhome.conf  -> /data/forgefirm/gfhome.conf

There is no migration: only the bench has ever run this firmware.
/data/etc now holds only the factory's wpa_supplicant.conf.

The acceptance check of the file modes reads the settings file at its
new path, and the two bench tools that read it directly follow. The
pins move to the revisions that carry the change, forgectrl also
bringing the fix that reads the module's disabled state as idle:

  forgectrl           468ee21 (0.1.12)
  grblhal-glowforge   9ee624b (0.1.10)
  forgefirm-app       56f134a (0.1.28+git)

The lock moves meta-openglow to b7ad6d9, which pins python3-gfhardware
on the same revision. The four upstream layers stay where they were:
`kas lock --update` moves every floating repository, and a release is
not the place to take poky, meta-openembedded and meta-freescale along
for the ride.

ScottW514 4a95595afd Pin forgectrl on the gate that waits for the enclosure; add its test
forgectrl now holds the motion check while a lid or the interlock is
open instead of starting the controller unverified: GET /mode reports
controller "waiting" with why, the button blinks amber, and the check
runs when the enclosure closes. motion.gate-waits-for-lid drives the
fixture's lid channel: the lid opens, forgectrl restarts, /mode must
read waiting with why naming the lid, no pid, motion unverified, the
button amber (sampled over a blink period: the smooth trigger's target
reads 0 through the off half) and no probe line in the log; the lid
closes, and the controller must come up verified with MOTION OK on the
first probe.

Proven on the bench reference: PASS, the controller verified 6.5 s
after the lid closed.

ScottW514 8af8b197ee Mount the rootfs read-only on both images
The rootfs mounted read-write, so a slot ran with its own files open to
change, and the factory-slot mounts rode along on the release image.
Both images now carry the read-only-rootfs feature: the ro root line and
the rcS default, the volatile links made at rootfs time, a writable copy
of /var/lib at boot, a build failure for a post-install that needs the
machine, and the removal of shadow, base-passwd, update-rc.d and
update-alternatives.

What must last or change at run time is handled file by file:

- forgefirm-users renders the four account files from the record into
  /run/forgefirm/accounts and bind-mounts each copy over its /etc file
  (useradd and the rest are gone with shadow); a render writes through
  the mount, and the image's own files apply until the first render.
- forgefirm-banner bind-mounts a copy of /etc/issue and writes the
  address block through it.
- sshd keeps its host keys under /data/forgefirm/ssh, so the fingerprint
  survives updates; both sshd configs carry the same HostKey lines.
- forgefirm-logging passes logrotate a state file under /var/run
  (logrotate refuses to run without one).
- forgefirm-persist points the boot timestamp and the random seed at
  /data/forgefirm.

The dev image appends the /factory slot mounts, without nofail (busybox
mount hands it to the kernel, which rejects it). The rootfs command
entries lose their semicolons: on scarthgap the value is the task's
vardeps, split on whitespace, so "name;" left the function body out of
the signature and a changed body did not remake the rootfs; with the
bodies tracked, the dev image's DATETIME string needs a vardepsexclude.
release.sh gains the read-only gate (root ro, no /factory line,
ROOTFS_READ_ONLY=yes, host keys on /data). image.health checks the
mounts, the account binds, the banner bind, the host keys and the
dev-only /factory mounts.

Proven on the bench reference (dev image 20260909140901): / ro, /data
rw, /var/lib a tmpfs copy, the four account files and /etc/issue bound
from tmpfs, the host keys in /data/forgefirm/ssh, no "Read-only file
system" line in any log; forgectrl.auth and commission.account-login (a
temporary account rendered, logged in over HTTPS and removed again),
kernel.latch-locked-idle and motion.liveness-probe PASS; logrotate runs
with the volatile state. forgetest unit tests 335 OK; both images build
clean, and debugfs on the built rootfs shows every setting above.

ScottW514 5f19ae01cd Follow the lens reference into the harness and the catalog
The lens now takes its hall-edge reference before any controller starts,
so Z is referenced on every start and M103 is gone. The laser-stream
harness opened its Z session by referencing the lens the way a
commissioning card did; it no longer has to, because Z is already open by
the time the session runs.

forgectrl.panel-serves gains the assertions for the per-axis reference:
homed_axes is an axis mask, homed agrees with it, and with a controller
running Z is referenced and reads inside the lens reach the same document
reports. That last check is the one that catches a panel showing nothing
for a Z the controller holds.

commission.check-motion already exercised the new path, because the
motion wizard's probe runs the same sequence the supervisor does, so its
covers map gains lenshome.c and its description names the lens reference
and the hard fault behind it.

ScottW514 e36a322ec5 Retire BRINGUP.md and CAMPAIGN-LOG.md
Every fact in the two documents is now on the documentation site, which
is the single source of truth. This repository carries no project
documentation any more: it is the build and release base plus the
acceptance tool, the bench tools and the fixture firmware.

BRINGUP.md was the runbook, the hardware facts bank and the open-work
list. CAMPAIGN-LOG.md was the dated record of how each result was
obtained. What replaces them: the site for present state, and the
commit message for the record of what a change did and how it was
proven, so the change and its record stay together. Local open work is
the developer's own file at the tree root and is not tracked here.

README.md becomes an index card: what this is, build, test, and where
the documentation is.

The release pipeline tags the documentation. Firmware on a machine
needs the documentation that agrees with it, so release.sh now tags the
forgefirm-docs checkout with the same v<version> as the release, and
prints the command that pushes the tag with the release. The checkout
must exist and be clean, which is a new gate before the signature.
FORGEFIRM_DOCS_DIR names the checkout (default: the sibling one) and
FORGEFIRM_DOCS_SKIP releases without a tag, loudly, and is never the
default. The tag is made at staging and pushed with the release, never
before: a documentation tag for a release that never shipped is worse
than no tag.

No catalog consequence. release.sh is host-side and is in no image.
The commission.py change is one sentence of a test description, not
behavior. accel_crash_probe.py and the kas header lose pointers to the
retired files.

Checks: bash -n and sh -n on release.sh, and the tracked trees carry no
reference to either retired file.

ScottW514 59c4516c00 The planner buffer depth harness; the XY microstep set is in
scripts/bench/planner_blocks_test.py restarts the null-sink controller
at $398=400 and at 1000 on one settings store and requires an answer on
the port, the depth in the status report and a move to Idle. It runs in
the grblHAL repo's CI; registered on the bench page and in the README.
BRINGUP: $398 runs over its whole range, the spin item is closed, and
the XY microstep item is committed, pushed and pinned. CAMPAIGN-LOG: the
landing and the index fix, with the host and bench proof.

No catalog consequence beyond the core submodule the motion tests
already cover; the coverage lint is clean.

ScottW514 8fc5250d6d XY microstep modes: the baseline, the catalog test and the bench tools
The baseline derives x/y_mode, step_freq, ramp_rate and the configured
markers from the xy_microsteps setting; ramp_rate joins the GRBL
controller's set (the driver writes it; the cloud client runs at the
module's). motion.microstep-modes cycles 8, 16 and 32: the save restarts
the idle controller, the kernel reads the mode with its tick and ramp,
$100/$101 are the mode's and a typed $100 is overwritten, a 40 mm jog at
top speed returns to Idle with the kernel counters over the mode agreeing
with the commanded travel and the accelerometer seeing the head move; the
setting is put back as found.

Bench tools: xy_mode_test.py (the null-sink harness the grblHAL CI runs),
raster_dry.py (a top-speed raster per mode), xy_pattern_accel.py (the
operator's pattern from home with the machine silent and the head
accelerometer listening), arc_tolerance_sweep.py (a $12 ladder on the 9
in circle: the chord rate the protocol loop feeds, about 300 a second, is
the ceiling, not the core), and the xymode and xycircle live drills.
BRINGUP carries the present state and the facts; CAMPAIGN-LOG the dated
record, including the planner-blocks spin (a $398 of 255 or more loops
forever at start, a core bug) and its recovery.

ScottW514 527d864eaf Register the Z envelope harness and record the rebase
A new scripts/bench python file must be entered in the bench registry as
well as in that directory's README: the registry is what the acceptance
page reads, and a file in neither is a tool nobody can find. The harness
joins the other two host-side CI harnesses, marked not a bench-page tool
for the same reason they are - it drives the host-built null-sink
controller, not the machine.

CAMPAIGN-LOG gets the dated record of the rebase onto core build
20260905: the settings-struct measurement taken before the machine was
touched, the harness and the two broken builds it was validated against,
and the bench results.

ScottW514 b0fa4ccaf5 A release publishes the source of the software it installs
The release build merges kas/source-bundle.yml, which turns on the Yocto
archiver: the upstream source of each recipe as upstream publishes it, the
patches with their series file, and the recipe with its includes. The
overlay adds tasks only, so the image manifest is unchanged and an
acceptance result still applies; proven on the build host, where the
archiver build and a plain rebuild of the same tree give the same
content_sha256.

scripts/source-bundle.py packs forgefirm-source-v<version>.tar.gz: the
archives, both license manifests, the license texts, the ForgeFIRM layers,
the kas configuration, the layer revisions and the build identity of the
image. What the bundle must hold comes from the image, not from a list in
the script: every recipe of license.manifest and image_license.manifest
whose license is in the include list must have an archive, or the release
stops with the recipe named. release.sh attaches the bundle and covers it
with sha256sums.txt; FORGEFIRM_SOURCE_SKIP=1 bypasses deliberately.

On the build host: 68 of the image's 111 recipes carry source, 313.7 MiB,
under the 2 GiB limit of a release asset.

No acceptance catalog consequence: the change is release tooling on the
build host and puts no file and no behavior on the machine. The host-side
proof is forgetest/tests/test_source_bundle.py, which holds the license
decision, the choice of archive and the refusal.

ScottW514 9f715f08de The GRBL settings store lives in /data/forgefirm
BRINGUP names the new path in the standalone start line and the
stored-settings note. forgectrl.panel-serves checks, in GRBL mode, that
the store is /data/forgefirm/EEPROM-glowforge.DAT and that nothing of it
remains at the top of /data. super.c is already in its covers map.
