exthost.panel-install leaves for the host proofs that carry it; the catalog goes from 88 to 87. - The upload sink is forgectrl's tests/host_ext.sh (005b159): 403 without the token, 409 and not idle while cnc/state reads running with the host never run, the host's refusal at 400 in its words with the staging file gone, an archive the host takes staged byte for byte as tier unverified with consent button, the discard, an install with nothing staged at 409, and a key without the button at 409 with no key written. The consent each tier takes, the phrase, the grants' form, the button the install and a key are passed, and the key's name and the host's refusal of it are forgectrl's extpkg_test; the tiers themselves are forgeext's install_test.py. - Its section header, "installing through the panel", held only it, and EXT_STAGE and the contextlib import, which only it read, go with it. Its requires line goes with the function. Three stay. exthost.package-routes: extpkg_test has the status document, the holds, disable and enable, remove, a bad action and a bad id at 400 with nothing run, and the host's refusal at 409, but not the 403 without the login on GET /ext/status and POST /ext/package, which is main.c's guard and no case of extpkg_test's. exthost.wizard: a package's check takes no lease (wizdark.c), and the lease is held in memory, so there is no lease file to assert absent at the prompt. exthost.catalog: install_test.py and extpkg_test assert every listed claim, and what is left is the image's own key. The coverage lint names no uncovered path, so no HOST_TESTED row is added: forgectrl's src/auth.* stays covered by other catalog tests, and src/extpkg.* by the three that stay. test_setup_suite.py (31) and test_manifest.py (34) pass. The coverage lint on the tree manifest finds no uncovered path and no host-tested row problem across the 87 tests; its one finding is setup.check-lens's empty src/lensfind.* entry. pyflakes reports nothing on exthost.py. The full forgetest suite was not run. Fingerprints: exthost.py's shared text moves, so 8 tests move: the 6 left in exthost.py, and exthost.catalog and exthost.wizard in the modules that read it. The pending pin bumps from forgectrl c274f19 and forgeext 2d0391e already owe 7 of them; exthost.platform is the one this adds. releases/ and TEST-AUDIT.md are unchanged.
OpenGlow / ForgeFIRM firmware for Glowforge
BETA
ForgeFIRM is in beta. Every release below 0.1.0 is a beta release. It's stable, but you may still hit the occasional bug, and expect frequent updates. Upgrade whenever a newer release is available, and report what you find on the community forum.
Open firmware for Glowforge brand CNC lasers. ForgeFIRM replaces the cloud-dependent factory software on the stock control board, with no hardware modification, and gives the machine a local controller, a local web control panel, and a standard Grbl interface. The factory cloud experience stays available as an option.
This repository is the base of the build and of the release: the
meta-forgefirm Yocto layer, the kas configuration, the image recipes, the
install and release scripts, the acceptance tool (forgetest/), the bench
tools (scripts/bench/), the bench actuator firmware (fixture/), and the
release artifacts (releases/).

Build
kas build kas/forgefirm-glowforge.yml
Build covers the host setup, the two images, the source variant and the debug kernel. Release flow covers the pins, the push order and the signing pipeline.
Test
cd forgetest && python3 -m unittest discover -s tests -v
The acceptance catalog that gates a release, and the bench tools, are on Acceptance and The bench.
Contributing
AGENTS.md carries the rules for this repository and for the project: safety ordering, proof before done, the push order, and the writing rules. They apply to human contributors too, and Contribute is the same set on the site.
What this costs
Nothing. ForgeFIRM is free in both senses, under MIT and GPL licenses. There is no paid tier, no license key, no subscription and no Pro edition. If someone offers to sell it to you, the licenses allow it, but what you take home is their build rather than this one: get it from the source.
Safety
These machines contain a CO2 laser: it burns, blinds, and starts fires. Never defeat the lid switches or the interlock. Never leave a running job unattended. Keep a fire extinguisher within reach. Read Safety before you cut your first job, and Regulatory and legal before you install.
This is experimental software. Use of it could seriously maim or kill you or others, and it may void your warranty. Use it at your own risk.
