ScottW514 9cc2e4eef4 forgetest: the machine's print behavior under the offline service
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.
