Extract the messaging vocabulary (arenas, MSG-*/CH-*/MBR-* words) out of
capsules/hermes/init.4th into a new shared capsules/common/messaging.4th
that Hermes and Artemis each load at birth, giving every VM its own
private MSG-ARENA/CH-ARENA instead of only Hermes having one. Hermes
stays the owner of the one real, canonical COMMON-CH; Artemis subscribes
into it via VM-EXEC at her own birth, and Hermes proactively subscribes
Hera (idx 0) since Hera always exists first.
Hera does NOT get her own copy: register_child_vm_words()'s own doc
comment explains why the STADIUM-* primitives common:messaging.4th
depends on are deliberately never registered in her dictionary (keeps
her dict_hash off item 4.1's baseline). Confirmed live by loading it
into her dictionary anyway first -- every colon-definition referencing
an unregistered Stadium primitive was silently dropped (MSG-HEAT@/!,
CH-HEAT@/!, MSG-COOL-ALL, MSG-TICK all missing after boot). Reverted
that path; she orchestrates via BIRTH/VM-EXEC/VM-CALL instead.
Added capsule_vm_registry_get_by_index() (capsule_birth.c/.h) for
registry enumeration by birth-order position, and a pump in repl.c's
existing idle hook that walks every live VM once per idle beat and
VM-EXECs MSG-TICK into each one except Hera's own entry.
Verified clean (no UNKNOWN WORD / VM-EXEC errors after birth) on all
three architectures.

capsules/lib.4th:13-14 defined ": USE ( addr u -- ) EXEC ;" and the
same for RUN, shadowing the C-registered mama_word_use()/RUN primitives
(CLAUDE.md names both, with BIRTH, as untouchable C primitives) with an
unrelated "load/exec a capsule" meaning. This broke the interactive
USE-based VM-redirect (S" Artemis" USE printed "EXEC: failed: Artemis"
instead of redirecting), discovered while chasing FABRIC-3.md's
live-MIGRATE verification.
Traced every real caller before touching anything: RUN's alias was
dead code, never called anywhere as bare RUN. USE's alias had exactly
one real caller -- capsules/hermes/init.4th:397, intentionally
exploiting the shadow to load common:msg.4th right after lib.4th
itself loaded. Both aliases were pure EXEC wrappers with zero added
behavior, so this deletes both definitions outright and switches the
one real call site (plus its matching doc comment in
capsules/common/msg.4th) to call EXEC directly. No new names invented,
the C primitives untouched.
Verified live: Hermes still births and her COMMON-CH-eviction
self-test (depends on common:msg.4th having loaded) still passes;
interactively, S" Artemis" USE now correctly redirects the REPL and
prints "USE: now using Artemis". mkcapsule --lint clean (31/31).
Clean compile and clean boot with Stadium conservation intact
(resident_sum + reservoir == Q48_ONE) on all three architectures.
