forgectrl embeds its advisory documents in the binary, serves them, and records the operator's consent to one by its hash, so an edited advisory is a changed consent. They are Markdown under docs/, which the non-behavioral list takes out of every fingerprint, and that left setup.extensions-consent's covers entry for docs/advisories/extensions.md selecting nothing: the enforced coverage lint fails on it (exit 1 on the dev image's manifest of 20260922225653), and an edited advisory moved no fingerprint at all. A BEHAVIORAL list now keeps forgectrl's docs/advisories/** in, ahead of the non-behavioral one. forgeext's recipe installs the binary and its init script and nothing else, so packages/ (the official packages, which carry their own acceptance artifact), sdk/ (the author's kit), template/ and tools/ are non-behavioral for the image: without that, an edit to the alignment page or the kit would make every exthost test stale on the next image. Proof: test_manifest passes its 25 cases, the new ones among them; the enforced coverage lint on the dev image's manifest of 20260922225653 exits 0 with no empty entry and nothing uncovered, where it exited 1 before. The whole forgetest suite ran its 451 tests; one, test_cloud_suite's test_pause_resume_passes_on_the_machines_lines, errored under the suite's load and passes 16 runs of 16 alone, at HEAD and on this tree alike: it replays a print against timed hooks.
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.
