No case held the step of implementation_sha that adds what a test's own import imports in turn (`sibling_imports(sib, sibs)`), nor the recursion in sibling_imports itself: the judge.py of test_a_sibling_imported_inside_a_function_moves_the_tests_that_run_it imports nothing. Either line deleted kept test_manifest.py green, while on the real catalog the first drops motion.py's shared text from cloud.mode-switch's hash and setup.py's from motion.release's. The guard on the suite's package imports read the relative spelling alone: a `from forgetest import server`, an `import forgetest.server`, or a `from forgetest.suite.setup import ...` in a suite module passed it, and the sibling walk does not follow any of them, so the module they name joined no hash. The case's judge.py now imports limit.py, which imports base.py: an edit to either moves m.two and not m.one. The guard refuses any import of the package by its absolute name in a suite module, at any depth. No suite module imports the package that way. catalog.py does not change. Proof: forgetest-ci "Unit tests" (`python -B -m unittest discover -s tests -v` in forgetest): test_manifest.py runs 39 tests, OK, on Windows with python 3.14 and on Ubuntu 24.04 with python 3.12. Negative controls on scratch copies: catalog.py without `sibling_imports(sib, sibs)` in implementation_sha fails the case at the limit.py edit; the walk without its recursion fails it at the base.py edit; in suite/forgectrl.py, a `from forgetest import server` and an `import forgetest.server` inside a function, and forgectrl.auth's import of setup.py spelled `from forgetest.suite.setup import request, decode`, each fail the guard. pyflakes reports no undefined name. Acceptance: none. tests/ are in no fingerprint (source_sha of 43 of 43 unchanged).
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> 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.
