The release build merges kas/source-bundle.yml, which turns on the Yocto archiver: the upstream source of each recipe as upstream publishes it, the patches with their series file, and the recipe with its includes. The overlay adds tasks only, so the image manifest is unchanged and an acceptance result still applies; proven on the build host, where the archiver build and a plain rebuild of the same tree give the same content_sha256. scripts/source-bundle.py packs forgefirm-source-v<version>.tar.gz: the archives, both license manifests, the license texts, the ForgeFIRM layers, the kas configuration, the layer revisions and the build identity of the image. What the bundle must hold comes from the image, not from a list in the script: every recipe of license.manifest and image_license.manifest whose license is in the include list must have an archive, or the release stops with the recipe named. release.sh attaches the bundle and covers it with sha256sums.txt; FORGEFIRM_SOURCE_SKIP=1 bypasses deliberately. On the build host: 68 of the image's 111 recipes carry source, 313.7 MiB, under the 2 GiB limit of a release asset. No acceptance catalog consequence: the change is release tooling on the build host and puts no file and no behavior on the machine. The host-side proof is forgetest/tests/test_source_bundle.py, which holds the license decision, the choice of archive and the refusal.
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.
