ScottW514 db6015dc81 forgetest: cloud.mode-switch opens the lid behind the controller's start, ahead of the hunt
The supervisor holds every controller spawn until the enclosure is
closed (forgectrl 0.1.25), and the test opened the lid before it asked
for the cloud controller: POST /mode answered "waiting, the lid is
open" and the controller never came up. The round trip now switches
with the lid closed, polls /mode five times a second, and opens the
lid the moment the controller is running. The client requests its
connect-time hunt a few seconds after its start, right behind its
session, so the hunt still finds the lid open. The order is recorded
and judged: the hunt's request line must not be in the client's log
when the lid reads open (hunt_before_lid_open), and the test refuses
to start with the lid open. The catalog text tells the operator to
open the lid at once, with a hand ready on it.

Proof. Host: test_cloud_suite drives the round trip with the hunt
landing only once the lid reads open, as on the bench, plus the lost
race (the hunt requested before the lid opened fails the test with
"before the lid was open") and the start with the lid open refused;
8 mode-switch cases green. Bench reference (dev image 20260915001814,
forgectrl 0.1.25): cloud.mode-switch PASS in 118 s, the lid open 4 s
before the client requested its hunt, no refusal before the hunt's
end, the lens homed, the exhaust row unjudged, 5 service motions
after the lid closed, $H under gfhome homed in 48.4 s with 9 motion
windows. No catalog consequence beyond the test itself: its covers
map is 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 ....

Environment

Variable Default Purpose
FORGETEST_DATA /data/forgetest results.jsonl, bench.jsonl, token, export/
FORGETEST_MANIFEST /etc/forgefirm-manifest.json the image manifest
FORGETEST_PORT, FORGETEST_HOST 8090, 0.0.0.0 listener
FORGETEST_BENCH_DIR /usr/share/forgetest/bench the installed bench scripts
FORGETEST_BENCH_DATA <FORGETEST_DATA>/bench passed to bench tools: where they keep their data files (with GF_HOST=127.0.0.1 and the panel token in GF_TOKEN)
FORGETEST_MARKER /run/forgetest.active takeover marker
FORGECTRL_URL, FORGECTRL_TOKEN_FILE http://127.0.0.1, /data/forgefirm/panel.token forgectrl client (HTTP; the token authorizes writes from the board)
FORGECTRL_TLS_URL https://127.0.0.1 forgectrl over HTTPS (self-signed, unverified), for the login test
GF_SYSFS_ROOT /sys/glowforge/ kernel module sysfs
GRBL_HOST, GRBL_PORT 127.0.0.1, 23 Grbl TCP

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.
