Robert Allan JamesandClaude Sonnet 5 af20efaa15 FABRIC.md items 4.4v/4.4r/4.4ab: keyboard bridge, and simplify to a
full-screen vt100 terminal

4.4v -- keyboard-to-REPL bridge, real and tested:
Refactored KEY-EVENT's per-arch translation logic (keyboard_words.c) into
a shared C function, sk_key_event_poll(), so the REPL bridge reuses item
4.3.5f's already-converged Linux-keycode-namespace event stream instead
of building separate amd64/aarch64/riscv64 tables. repl.c's sk_kbd_getc()
decodes the standard US-QWERTY printable range plus Enter/Backspace/Shift
against that stream; sk_readline() polls it as a second source alongside
console_getc(). Verified via QEMU monitor sendkey injection, and by
Captain Bob typing directly into the live QEMU window over real emulated
PS/2 hardware mid-session (1 1 + . -> 2 ok, then a clean BYE shutdown).

4.4ab -- simplify to a full-screen terminal:
Captain Bob's call, reverting the 640x480 CANVAS box + independent REPL
strip (4.4o/4.4t/4.4x/4.4z) in favor of the simplest shape: the entire
framebuffer is one vt100 terminal, g_vt.cols/rows = fb_width()/fb_height()
divided by cell size, no origin offset, no box, no strip, no border
drawing. The REPL prompt is just the terminal's last scrolling line.
Scrollback, TTF rendering, and SGR color are all box-agnostic and keep
working unmodified.

4.4r -- reframed as a text/graphics mode toggle:
"Hide/show the scroll box" stopped meaning anything once the box was
removed; the underlying need survives as a whole-screen mode switch.
vt100_toggle_graphics() is a two-state machine (VISIBLE/HIDDEN) -- hidden
mode stops the terminal from touching the framebuffer while its logical
state keeps advancing, so direct framebuffer/TTF-TEXT drawing can use the
whole screen; showing again wipes and reuses scrollback_redraw() to
restore the terminal exactly. Reachable two ways, one transition function:
physically via Alt+TAB (4.4y revised from Ctrl+TAB) and programmatically
via the new ALT+TAB FORTH word.

Verified: three-arch clean QEMU boot + logs; amd64 screendump confirms
full-width text with no box/strip artifacts.

Punch list §25 items 4.4v/4.4r/4.4ab complete; 4.4y revised.

Robert Allan JamesandClaude Sonnet 5 1f3ec3554e starkernel: REPL scrollback, ~1000 lines (FABRIC.md item 4.4q)
Scope decided with Captain Bob before implementation: ring buffer +
recall on today's full-screen vt100 grid, not also confining REPL text
to the 4.4o 640x480 box (that confinement stays open as its own future
item, not a third silent deferral). No keyboard input path exists yet
(M8 unstarted), so the trigger is two new FORTH words, SCROLL-BACK
( n -- ) / SCROLL-FWD ( n -- ), exercised via serial injection.

vt100.c gains a text-only 1000-line ring buffer (kmalloc'd, tens of KB
-- not pixel snapshots, which would be ~1000x larger for no benefit)
plus a shadow buffer mirroring the current screen. scroll_up() now
pushes evicted rows into the ring before the pixel scroll. History is
one continuous sequence (ring then shadow); scrolling always redraws
from that sequence -- no separate pixel-scroll path for scrollback,
decided up front to avoid retrofitting later.

New src/word_source/scroll_words.c (Module 31), thin wrappers over
console_fb_scroll_back()/_fwd() -> vt100_scroll_back()/_fwd(). Bug
caught during live testing: both words initially used an off-by-one
underflow check (dsp < 1) copied from a different, older dsp
convention elsewhere in this codebase; vm_pop() (which these words
actually call) uses dsp as a 0-based top-of-stack index, so the check
rejected every legitimate single-argument call. Fixed by removing the
separate precheck and relying on vm_pop()'s own guard.

Live-verified on all three architectures (exceeds this item's
amd64-minimum bar): generated 50+ lines via a FORTH loop, confirmed
SCROLL-BACK recovers correctly older content, and on amd64 confirmed
SCROLL-FWD returns to genuinely live state (not a frozen snapshot) by
showing the injected commands' own echo. Known limitation confirmed by
direct pixel measurement: redrawn lines lose their original SGR color
(not stored per-cell) -- text recovers exactly, color does not.

Three-arch verified: Failed: 0, dict-hashes identical across all
three (values changed correctly from prior items -- two new words
were added).

Robert Allan JamesandClaude Sonnet 5 715ebcc57e ttf_words.c: TTF-TEXT entry point, hmtx advance widths (item 4.3.7e)
Punch list §25 item 4.3.7e complete. New src/word_source/ttf_words.c
registers TTF-TEXT ( c-addr u x y size color -- ): lazily loads the v1
default font capsule + raster cache once, decodes UTF-8 (C
reimplementation mirroring capsules/fabric.4th's DECODE-UTF8 exactly),
looks up each glyph's cached bitmap, blits via fb_put_pixel, advances
the pen by the glyph's real hmtx advance width scaled to pixels.

Necessary plumbing: ttf_parse() now also locates hhea/hmtx, and
ttf_glyph_advance_width() reads a glyph's advance width -- required for
this item's own "proportional spacing correct" acceptance clause, no
advance-width data existed anywhere else in the parser. Verified in
tools/ttftest.c: A/a/0/space all read advance_width=600, correctly
uniform since JetBrainsMono-Regular.ttf is monospace.

(x,y) is raster pixel space (top-left origin, Y-down), deliberately not
the stroke font TEXT's Cartesian Y-up convention -- recorded explicitly
in ttf_words.h, not conflated.

Verified live, amd64, screendump: injected
S" Hi 4.3.7e!" 200 200 28 16777215 TTF-TEXT over a serial socket after
boot, no error, captured a screendump showing the string rendered
legibly with correct mixed-case/digit/punctuation glyphs and even
spacing. TTF-TEXT is this item's permanent deliverable, not a
throwaway probe. Compile-checked clean on all three architectures.

Robert Allan JamesandClaude Sonnet 5 d0835c674b FORTH: KEY-EVENT unified keyboard interface, closes 4.3.5-4.3.5f (item 4.3.5f)
Punch list §25 item 4.3.5f complete. Keyboard-input slice done.

New KEY-EVENT ( -- keycode pressed -1 | 0 ) converges amd64's i8042,
riscv64's and aarch64's virtio-keyboard-pci behind one shape. Translation
needed is minimal: XT Set-1 make codes and Linux input keycodes are
numerically identical across the standard 84-key block (a documented
historical property of the Linux input subsystem, confirmed against this
host's own headers and this tree's own prior live observations), so amd64
needs two lines, riscv64/aarch64 need none. Verified live with a real
keypress on all three architectures: identical "-1 1 30" output everywhere.
Three-arch acceptance boot clean.

Robert Allan JamesandClaude Sonnet 5 a373c9124a aarch64: virtio-keyboard-pci, interrupt-driven keyboard input (item 4.3.5e)
Punch list §25 item 4.3.5e complete.

Extended virtio_input.c with a GIC-routed interrupt path alongside 4.3.5c's
PLIC one -- same capability walk, feature negotiation, eventq handling
(confirming §27.5.1's prediction that these items would share most of the
driver). aarch64_irq_handler() dispatches to virtio_input_isr() before its
EOIR write, same claim-dispatch-complete ordering riscv64 uses. Verified
with a real QEMU sendkey keypress: exact KEY_A/press match, two real
interrupts serviced, identical result to riscv64. Found (not fixed) an
unrelated pre-existing bug: BYE's cold-reset path faults on aarch64,
discovered incidentally since nobody had exercised it from a monitored
session before. Three-arch acceptance boot clean.

Robert Allan JamesandClaude Sonnet 5 8251aebcf8 riscv64: virtio-keyboard-pci, interrupt-driven keyboard input (item 4.3.5c)
Punch list §25 item 4.3.5c complete.

Amended from a nonexistent MMIO transport to PCI (matching the board's
actual virtio-blk-pci precedent). New virtio-input driver: eventq with
pre-posted buffers, PLIC source computed at runtime from PCI slot/pin
(derived live from this host's QEMU riscv64 DTB), mandatory ISR-status
read, PCI interrupt-disable-bit check. New VKBD-EVENT/VKBD-DEBUG FORTH
words. Verified with a real QEMU sendkey keypress: exact KEY_A/press
match, two real interrupts serviced, zero exceptions. Three-arch
acceptance boot clean.

Robert Allan JamesandClaude Sonnet 5 88eb73cfe8 starkernel: item 4.3.5 -- amd64 I/O APIC + i8042 keyboard, interrupt-driven
Punch list §25 item 4.3.5 complete.

New ioapic.c/i8042.c drivers (MADT-derived I/O APIC base, no hardcoded
constants) plus a KBD-SCAN/KBD-DEBUG diagnostic word pair. Three real
bugs found and fixed en route, all blocking this item's own acceptance:
a fatal LAPIC spurious-vector crash (nothing had driven a real external
interrupt through the I/O APIC before), OVMF leaving the keyboard device
itself scanning-disabled (0xF4 fix), and isr.S's stub table only having
individually-numbered stubs through vector 32 -- everything above that,
including our IRQ1 vector 33, silently reported as vector 255 regardless
of which IDT slot actually fired. Verified live via QEMU sendkey against
KBD-SCAN: correct XT Set-1 make/break codes for two different keys.

Robert Allan James ef9806977a starkernel: item 4.3.3 -- Cartesian coordinate machinery, found and fixed a VARIABLE alignment bug
Adds Module 28 (framebuffer_words.c/.h): PLOT ( x y color -- ), FB-WIDTH,
FB-HEIGHT -- raw hardware-boundary C primitives, kernel-only, no-op on
hosted builds, same pattern as every other module.

Adds capsules/fabric.4th (blocks 4900-4902, mkcapsule --lint clean):
COS45/Z->DELTA/PROJECT/CART-Y/CART-PLOT -- the 45-degree cavalier
orthographic projection and Y-flip, in FORTH per the compose-in-FORTH-first
rule (this is policy, not hardware access).

Found and fixed a second real bug while live-testing CART-PLOT over the
serial socket: defining_word_variable() (defining_words.c) captured
vm->here as a VARIABLE's address with no alignment call first, while
vm_load_cell/vm_store_cell require 8-byte-aligned addresses. This capsule's
VARIABLE ZD landed misaligned (945) purely by chance of what preceded it;
other capsules' variables happened to land aligned by luck, not guarantee.
Real deviation from FORTH-83/ANS, which specifies VARIABLE reserves an
aligned cell. Fixed with vm_align(vm) before capturing addr -- ALIGN
already existed as a word but VARIABLE wasn't calling it.

Verified end-to-end on amd64 via manual serial injection + QEMU screendump:
plotted 4 marker points (origin, +100 X, +100 Y, +50 Z) and confirmed all
landed at hand-calculated raster coordinates, including the diagonal
up-right shift for the Z-axis point -- the projection math is correct, not
just non-crashing. fb/fabric-test-cart-plot.png. 4.3.1's corner diagnostic
still renders correctly in the same shot, confirming no regression.

All three architectures (amd64/aarch64/riscv64) boot clean to ok> with the
DoE completing; dict_hash identical across all three
(0xc7f9adf885e306d2), confirming parity is unaffected.

FABRIC.md item 4.3.3 marked done with full acceptance evidence.
