Four cloud tests no longer need the app, an account, a network, or anything on the bed: cloud.lid-interlock-abort, lid-during-button-wait, paused-lid-cancel and oversize-stream run under the offline service (enter_offline restarts the cloud client with the /run marker for that one start; Offline is the socket; offline_job writes the job). The jobs come from forgetest/puls.py: the header of a factory print of this machine type (134 tags, MCsn 0, so the client's limits and settings come from where a service job's do) over a square traced at a steady feed with a leading power byte of zero and no LASER bit anywhere - the arm unlocks the latch, the beam is never commanded, so the tests stay live and need no scrap. A job longer than the ring (33 MiB of ticks, an hour of squares) is an 87 kB gzip written in a tenth of a second, in place of a full-bed raster designed in the app. session_live reads the offline mark as "no web session"; enter_cloud restarts an offline client with the service, so cloud.pause-resume (the one real print left, with cloud.mode-switch the service-protocol half of the catalog) follows the offline tests without the operator's hand. Replays over a fake socket; the contract and BRINGUP say how the cloud catalog splits. Catalog consequence: the four re-ported tests move; nothing else is invalidated.
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
docs/ACCEPTANCE.md.
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 ....

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.
