ScottW514 9711a7fa06 The audit's deferred findings: the checksum exclude, the resume-lead drill, the record
B-16: BB_SIGNATURE_LOCAL_DIRS_EXCLUDE in the distro conf names __pycache__
and .pytest_cache, so a workstation's bytecode caches never enter a
file:// checksum (proven in the build VM: a cache under the package leaves
the fetch task alone, a source change reruns it).

kernel.resume-lead: two phases behind one takeover at a 1 kHz tick. E, a
resume whose lead is longer than the data ends at end-of-data within a few
ticks (a lost end-of-data would show as 255 ms). L, a 1000-byte lead over
FIRE bits with the latch unlocked and the chain unarmed keeps the FIRE
line low through the lead and drives it from the waypoint byte on. The
bench proof for the module's K-4 and K-8 fixes; the catalog counts 55
tests, 0 uncovered.

BRINGUP items 9 and 11 and the CAMPAIGN-LOG entry record the batch and the
campaign rule: no campaign until every audit finding is on one image.

forgetest - the ForgeFIRM release acceptance tool

The daemon behind http://<machine>:8090/ on the dev image: runs the acceptance catalog against the machine, keeps the append-only result log, decides which results still apply to the image that is running, exports the release artifact scripts/release.sh gates on, and serves the bench diagnostics page. The contract - catalog, campaigns, fingerprints, inheritance, the gate, the coverage rule - is the Acceptance page of the documentation site.

Run the host tests

cd forgetest
python3 -m unittest discover -s tests -v

Run the daemon on a workstation (against a mock or a manifest file)

FORGETEST_DATA=/tmp/ft FORGETEST_MANIFEST=../tree-manifest.json \
FORGECTRL_URL=http://<machine>:8080 python3 -m forgetest --port 8090

scripts/manifest-from-tree.py produces tree-manifest.json from the recipe pins; the coverage lint is python3 -m forgetest.coverage --manifest ....

Environment

FORGETEST_BENCH_DIR /usr/share/forgetest/bench the installed bench scripts
FORGETEST_BENCH_DATA <FORGETEST_DATA>/bench passed to bench tools: where they keep their data files (with GF_HOST=127.0.0.1 and the panel token in GF_TOKEN)
FORGETEST_MARKER /run/forgetest.active takeover marker

Adding a test

Register it in the subsystem module under forgetest/suite/ with @test(...): id subsystem.name, kind, hardware, mode (the controller mode the test needs; the runner switches to it first), covers, requires, always, steps. The body gets a Context (log, check, fail, prompt, confirm, instruct, sleep, evidence, forgectrl, sysfs, grbl, takeover). Return normally for PASS, raise runner.Failed for FAIL. Then run the unit tests and the coverage lint.
