The step backend now lives in github.com/ScottW514/grblHAL-glowforge
(grblHAL driver convention: core submodule, driver.c HAL, board header).
Add build-glowforge.sh, update the BRINGUP runbook (no -t throttle,
EEPROM path, kill-before-scp, producer stats line, reset/disconnect
semantics), and teach bench_m2.py to parse the F: status field (no
spindle registered = no FS: field). Settings-write crash fix is
upstream as grblHAL/core PR 999.
Extract the factory motion profile from the _RESOURCES pulse streams
(new puls_profile.py): 700/590 mm/s2 X/Y accel on v2.6.0 firmware,
202 mm/s travel peak at the 28160 Hz travel tick, PIC currents X 135/33
and Y 22/5 run/hold, decay mode 1. Add the bench_m2.py round-trip jog +
feed-hold suite (all green 2026-08-02: sustained 200 mm/s, exact
returns, clean hold/resume, zero underruns) and update BRINGUP.md:
board moved to a fixed lease at 172.16.1.97, analog config now applied
by the sink itself, $RST=$ note for stale stored settings.
