Cluster 4 of the POST-coverage sweep: physics_freeze_words_test.c covers the 6
words proof/StarForth_Physics_Freeze_Words.thy actually gives real lemmas for
(FREEZE-WORD, UNFREEZE-WORD, FROZEN?, HEAT!, HEAT@, DECAY-RATE@), correcting
an earlier fork summary's wrong "5 words" scope.
Writing the tests surfaced two independent, pre-existing bugs in
physics_freeze_words.c, both now fixed:
- Every address-taking word cast the VM's caddr directly to a host pointer
instead of resolving it through vm_ptr() -- caddr is an offset into
vm->memory, not a host pointer. Fixed in all 9 call sites (the 5 in-scope
words plus SHOW-HEAT, which shares the identical pattern).
- Every underflow check used dsp < N (item count) instead of dsp < N-1, since
this VM's dsp is a 0-indexed top-of-stack pointer. Fixed in all 6 checks.
Together these meant every word in this file taking a stack-supplied name has
been broken for any real caller since the file was written. Verified zero
build warnings and a clean three-arch QEMU boot (amd64/aarch64/riscv64), 1009
passed / 0 failed / 0 errors identically on all three, dict_hash matching
across arches.

New module (inference_words_test.c, Module 26) covers exactly the 8
words proof/COVERAGE.md marks proof-covered in inference_words.c (out
of 20 registered): the 5 output accessors (INFER-WINDOW@/DECAY@/
VARIANCE@/FIT@/EARLY-EXIT@), INFER-RUN (populates what they read), and
Q.VARIANCE/INFER-DECAY-SLOPE/INFER-WINDOW-WIDTH (array-based
primitives, using HERE as multi-cell scratch memory). Deliberately not
the L8 Jacquard or Bayesian-posterior words in the same file -- not
proof-covered, out of this cluster's scope.
Caught and fixed a contract-selection mistake before booting: copied
CONTRACT_PHYSICS_TRANSPARENT from the Q48.16 cluster without checking
whether it fit. It doesn't -- these words are specifically about
reading physics state (dictionary heat, rolling window), so asserting
A4' transparency on them would test an invariant they deliberately
don't have. Switched to CONTRACT_NONE with an explanatory comment.
Boot-verified: zero warnings, all 9 suite entries pass, FINAL TEST
SUMMARY 1031->1040 total / 993->1002 passed (+9 exactly), 0 failed,
contract checks (A4'/A1) still report "all passed" -- confirms the
CONTRACT_NONE fix actually avoided the violation, not just silenced it.
Cluster 4 of 4 (final one) left: physics freeze/diagnostic, 5 words.

New module (q48_words_test.c, Module 25 -- matches word_registry.c's own
existing numbering for this file's registration) covers all 23 words in
q48_words.c: no test file existed for this file at all before. Standard
WordTestSuite/TestCase tabular format, unlike ACL's hand-rolled style --
these are pure stateless functions, a natural fit. 28 TestCase entries;
values built via Q.FROM-INT/Q.1/Q.0, read back via Q.TO-INT for readable
log output.
Verified q48_16.h's q48_to_u64() sign-extends through a signed int64_t
intermediate before writing the Q.NEG/Q.ABS tests, rather than assuming
negative round-trip works.
Boot-verified: zero build warnings, all 23 words pass individually,
FINAL TEST SUMMARY 1003->1031 total / 965->993 passed (+28 exactly),
0 failed, 0 errors. Noted (pre-existing, not fixed): print_module_summary()
is called with hardcoded (name,0,0,0,0) across every WordTestSuite module
in the tree, including this new one -- decorative, always zero; the real
counts live in each word's own per-suite line and the global summary.
Cluster 3 of 4 in the POST-coverage sequence (code sweeps -> HOL green ->
POST coverage, one proof-covered cluster at a time). Two clusters left:
inference-engine accessors, physics freeze/diagnostic. Full writeup in

Adds interpreter-level POST coverage for six ACL read accessors
(ACL-MODE@/PINNED?/TTL@/ALLOW@/HEAT@/WORD-ID), ACL-INHERIT as an
interpreted word (not just its underlying C function, already tested),
and ACL-INIT-PRIMITIVES -- all proof-covered per proof/COVERAGE.md but
never exercised via vm_interpret() before. Follows acl_words_test.c's
existing hand-rolled ACL_ASSERT style, not the WordTestSuite table
format the rest of the tree uses.
First boot caught a real bug in the new test itself (2/29 assertions
failed): ACL-INHERIT's C implementation pops dst before src, the test
pushed them backwards. Fixed the test, not the word -- ACL-INHERIT's
own dispatch was correct throughout. Re-verified: 29/29 pass, zero
build warnings. Both the failing and fixed boot logs kept as evidence.
Part of the agreed sequence (code sweeps -> HOL green -> POST coverage,
one proof-covered cluster at a time). Three more clusters queued:
Q48.16 math primitives, inference-engine accessors, physics
freeze/diagnostic words. Full writeup in FABRIC-2.md Section J.

Maintainability sweep (prompted by "this is getting hard to maintain"):
fixed the remaining three warning classes after the missing-field-
initializers commit -- 2x -Wsign-compare (control_words.c, cast at the
comparison site rather than changing cf_last_mode's type, which
deliberately holds a -999 sentinel outside vm_mode_t's valid range),
2x -Wstringop-truncation (mkcapsule.c, strncpy+manual-null-terminate
replaced with the idiomatic snprintf equivalent), and 26x
-Wunused-parameter (mostly documented stubs, silenced with the repo's
existing (void)param; idiom).
One of the unused-parameter warnings was not a deliberate stub -- a
real bug. restore_vm_state() (test_common.c) is named, documented, and
called by nine real call sites (acl_words_test.c x8 plus its own
internal use) as "restore saved VM state", but ignored all four of its
parameters and hard-reset to a fixed baseline instead, silently not
restoring what any caller actually saved. Fixed to actually assign the
passed-in dsp/rsp/error/mode. Found while fixing warnings, reported
before touching it, fixed/tested/documented/committed on explicit
instruction.
Verified: all three architectures build with zero C-compiler warnings
(amd64: 3040 -> 0; aarch64's one remaining note is lld-link's own
unrelated linker warning, not a C warning). Full amd64 acceptance boot
post-fix: POST 1003/965/0/0/38 (total/passed/failed/errors/stubs),
"ALL IMPLEMENTED TESTS PASSED!", contract checks (A4'/A1) all passed,
dict_hash=0x24b4279f0670aa3a -- an exact match to this document's own
previously-recorded baseline hash.
.claude/CLAUDE.md corrected to describe the real -Wno-error= exemption

topology, docs/03-architecture/word-acl/DESIGN.md's Phase 7 claim
contradicting CLAUDE.md, top-level ROADMAP.md's stale StarForth-era
status, the Isabelle pipeline-metrics model mismatch).

TestCase gained a trailing `contract` field (WordContract) at some point
after all 20 test-module files' compound literals were written -- every
single TestCase/WordTestSuite initializer in the tree (sentinels, real
entries, and per-suite entries) omitted it, producing ~3010 warnings on
every build. CLAUDE.md's own documentation claimed this was isolated to
one file (vocabulary_words_test.c); a full audit found it systemic
across all 20 files.
Fixed mechanically: added the missing `{0}` trailing initializer
everywhere. Semantically a no-op -- C99 already zero-fills unlisted
trailing struct fields, so this only silences the diagnostic, changes
no behavior. Verified: all three architectures (amd64/aarch64/riscv64)
build clean, remaining warning count unchanged (30, matching the other
three known -Wno-error-exempted classes: unused-parameter, sign-compare,
plus mkcapsule.c's stringop-truncation which was never actually gated
by this policy -- it's a separate host tool with no -Werror at all).
.claude/CLAUDE.md corrected to describe the actual -Wno-error= exemption
list (four classes, not "build with -Wall -Werror" unconditionally) and
the real current warning inventory.

FABRIC-2.md item 5.2: both lemmas described as deliberately oops-flagged
(ROLL semantics, pipeline pm_wf invariant) were actually resolved
2026-08-13, same day, but FABRIC-2.md was never updated to match --
found during a docs-tree maintainability sweep. Corrected both, and
flagged a real untracked finding the pipeline fix surfaced: the Isabelle
model's accuracy num/den fraction pair doesn't correspond to the real
PipelineGlobalMetrics C struct at all. Also reconciled the theory-count
drift (53/54 mid-sweep numbers vs. the actual current 52, matching
proof/COVERAGE.md; proof/FINDINGS.md's own stale "53" flagged but not
fixed, out of this pass's scope).
docs/CLAUDE.md described a docs/Makefile with docs-formal/docs-working/
docs-index/docs-audit targets that doesn't exist anywhere in the tree.
The real build is docs/formal/Makefile with a completely different
target set (vol1/vol2/vol3/books/standalone/doxygen/clean) -- corrected
to match, and noted docs/INDEX.md has no automation and goes stale
between manual triage passes.
doxygen installed on this machine (was missing entirely, blocking the

Recorded in item 4.6's own closure entry in FABRIC-2.md, not literally
under FABRIC.md's §10 -- matches how item 4.2's effort number actually
lived (inside that item's own punch-list entry), and respects
FABRIC.md's own closed/no-further-edits rule. Same format as item 4.2's

Item 4.6 (Artemis Stadium migration) was still marked open despite its
own "Done when" criteria all being met by today's work: Stadium-admission
boundary shipped, FM-* untouched, ART-STRESS-CAMPAIGN 30/30 on all three
arches, POST clean, three-arch boot logs, ARTEMIS-K conservation holding.
Marked closed with a pointer to Section H; noted the one unverified
criterion (the §10 effort-number bookkeeping step) rather than silently
claiming it was done.
Found during a full sweep of FABRIC-2.md for the same tracking-drift
class that forced FABRIC.md's closure (§12 Q5, fixed in the prior
commit) -- this was the other real instance found.

Found while checking for the same scattered-punch-list problem that
forced FABRIC.md's closure: §12 Q5 was actually closed 2026-08-15 (the
STADIUM_CAPACITY_TICK flat-4000-divisor fix), but Section D's checkbox
was never flipped to [x], and Section F.3's punch list still re-listed
it as an open question. Fixed both; corrected the F.2/F.3 "net result"

CHANGELOG.md: new 2026-08-18 entry for today's work, plus a post-split

docs/lithosananke/ROADMAP.md: M7.1 section predates all the real
Tripod/Stadium/ACL work and was silently stale -- added a dated
redirect to FABRIC.md/FABRIC-2.md (matching the doc's own existing
pattern for the M8 section) rather than rewriting the whole section.

Standard L8-DOE acceptance run on all three architectures following the
item 4.6 quota-ordering fix and aarch64 SMC->HVC BYE-crash fix. All
three: 30/30 Artemis stress-campaign reps PASS, clean BYE exit (no
exception), full DoE CSV captured (~78-79k rows each).
riscv64's first attempt this session was killed mid-run by an
unexplained external SIGTERM (see memory note
project_unexplained_qemu_sigterm_20260818, cause not yet identified);
relaunched and completed clean.

Root cause of the aarch64 BYE cold-restart exception (present since at
least 2026-08-08, ESR_EL1=0x02000000/EC=0 "Unknown reason"), found via
live gdb single-stepping through the actual crash: arch_cold_reset()
issued PSCI SYSTEM_RESET via `smc #0`, but QEMU's aarch64 virt machine
booted with AAVMF (UEFI firmware, no genuine EL3/TrustZone secure
monitor) serves PSCI via HVC, not SMC -- nothing exists to answer an
SMC call, so it trapped as an illegal instruction straight into the
kernel's own exception handler. Not memory corruption, not a race --
a wrong conduit for this boot configuration.
Fix: smc #0 -> hvc #0. Function ID and calling convention unchanged.
Getting to this required first discovering that starkernel_kernel.elf
is not the binary that actually runs -- MONOLITHIC_BUILD links
kernel_main() directly into starkernel_loader.efi, a completely
separate, differently-linked build artifact. Every earlier gdb
breakpoint attempt this session failed because it used addresses from
the wrong file. Real addresses (UEFI-chosen ImageBase + linker-map
RVA) let gdb catch the crash live for the first time.
Verified: full aarch64 acceptance pass, 30/30 stress-campaign reps
PASS (unaffected -- this bug only manifested on BYE), and BYE now
exits cleanly with no exception for the first time in this
investigation.

Continued investigating the aarch64 BYE cold-restart exception (FABRIC-2.md
Section I). Added permanent boot diagnostics: kmalloc_heap_base_addr()/
kmalloc_heap_end_addr() now print in print_heap_stats(), confirming the
fault address is provably inside the kmalloc heap (not kernel code, not
firmware). Bumped aarch64 QEMU RAM to 4096MB to test heap-placement
sensitivity (no effect -- heap size is a fixed 2GiB default, independent
of total RAM once "enough" exists).
Three separate live gdb debugging attempts (software breakpoint, hardware
breakpoint on arch_cold_reset, hardware breakpoint on mama_word_bye's
entry) all silently failed to fire despite disassembly-confirmed-correct
addresses and confirmed execution reaching those points. A sanity check
(hbreak on console_println, called thousands of times per boot) also never
fired even 8802 lines into a serial log -- conclusively a gdbstub/QEMU
tooling limitation for this aarch64 target, not a kernel-side finding.
Live single-stepping is not currently viable here; documented so it isn't
re-attempted the same way.
Root cause still open. Full trail in FABRIC-2.md Section I.

Artemis's 30-rep surface stress campaign was failing 100% of trials on all
three architectures: stadium_grant_quota() ran after IDENTITY exec in
capsule_birth.c, but Artemis's init.4th auto-runs the stress campaign as
part of that same IDENTITY exec, so every STADIUM-ADMIT call during it hit
a nonexistent quota slot and refused unconditionally. Moved the grant call
before IDENTITY exec. Verified 30/30 reps PASS on amd64, aarch64, and
riscv64 post-fix (was 30/30 FAIL on all three pre-fix).
Also fixed an independent, real bug found during the same acceptance pass:
aarch64's arch_cold_reset() issued PSCI SYSTEM_RESET using the SMC64
calling convention (0xC4000009), which is not a valid PSCI function ID --
SYSTEM_RESET has no SMC64 variant. Corrected to the SMC32 encoding
(0x84000009). This did not resolve the separate aarch64 BYE cold-restart
exception also found in this pass (root cause not yet found, tested and
refuted an interrupt-race hypothesis, documented in FABRIC-2.md Section I
for follow-up) but is a genuine spec fix worth keeping regardless.
Full writeup, evidence, and the still-open aarch64 crash investigation in
FABRIC-2.md Sections H and I.

Records the pre-work ruling: Stadium residency for Artemis block heat is
admission-on-allocate (mirroring item 4.2's MBR-ALLOC precedent), not a
1:1 slot table across all 22,998 possible LBNs. FM-* freemap stays
untouched; BLK-ALLOC/BLK-FREE become the stadium_admit/evict boundary.

Closes FABRIC-2.md's last open §12 Q5 question. fleet_heartbeat_tick_count
is fed by every live VM's own vm_tick(), not one VM's, so it was reaching
HEARTBEAT_INFERENCE_FREQUENCY (shared/borrowed from the per-VM inference
gate) several times faster than intended with more than one VM live -
backwards from FABRIC.md §22.4's required ~1000:1 separation.
What's actually gated turned out to be low-stakes: vm_physics_tick()
(capsule_vm_physics.c:397) is a passive statistics refit - re-sorts a
window of past heat-transfer samples and recomputes a median rate
estimate. It doesn't move heat or arbitrate capacity. Firing too often
just meant a noisier statistic recomputed more frequently than planned,
not incorrect behavior.
Considered and explicitly rejected: scaling the threshold by live VM
count at the check site. That's the first brick of a scheduler - reading
fleet state to adjust a rate dynamically - which this project has
deliberately avoided building. Implemented instead: STADIUM_CAPACITY_TICK
(existing Kconfig symbol, defined but never read by any code path) now
gates vm_physics_heartbeat_tick()'s call directly, replacing the borrowed
HEARTBEAT_INFERENCE_FREQUENCY. Default bumped 1000 -> 4000, a flat
constant picked once for Tripod's known 4-VM topology, same kind of
placeholder as every other frequency knob in Kconfig.kernel - not
computed from anything at runtime. Renamed fleet_last_inference_tick ->
fleet_last_capacity_tick to match. Still one clock, one counter
(fleet_heartbeat_tick_count) - just a bigger flat divisor on it.
Three-arch QEMU acceptance: all clean to ok>, identical Stadium
conservation invariant on all three (resident_sum=43691 reservoir=21845

Captain Bob ruled directly: all four subsystem docs are superseded, not
individually assessed for partial staleness case-by-case. FABRIC.md
(design history) and FABRIC-2.md (current/living) are the sole
design-of-record for Tripod/Hermes/Artemis/Console work now.
Added a superseded-header banner to the top of all four .claude/*.md
files, pointing to FABRIC.md/FABRIC-2.md. Corrected .claude/CLAUDE.md's
own pointer paragraph, which previously claimed these four were
individually "authoritative" for their subsystems - that's now wrong.
Closes FABRIC-2.md's three open documentation questions (CONSOLE.md's
fate, HERMES.md's stale block map, 5.3's larger shrink-the-docs ask) at
once: the header approach makes reconciling a superseded document's
internal accuracy moot, and accomplishes what "shrink to a pointer" was
already trying to do.

Replaces STADIUM_MAX_VM_COUNT (Kconfig, hardcoded default 4) with a
boot-time computation, mirroring the pattern stadium_boot_init() already
used for the cell pool. New Kconfig STADIUM_VM_MEMORY_PERCENT (default
50): max_vm_count = (kmalloc_get_stats().free_bytes after the cell array
* STADIUM_VM_MEMORY_PERCENT / 100) / VM_MEMORY_SIZE, floored to 1, no
ceiling (population is not knowable in advance - could be 4, could be
4000). stadium_quotas and word_slots (plus stat_promotions/stat_evictions)
are now kmalloc'd to the computed count instead of declared with a macro.
New accessor stadium_max_vm_count() replaces every STADIUM_MAX_VM_COUNT
reference, including capsule_birth.c's birth-refusal gate.
Two things found and fixed along the way:
- The existing cell-pool budget was sourced from pmm_get_stats(), which
reflects physical pages PMM hasn't handed to any subsystem yet - but
the actual allocation is kmalloc(), which draws from the separate,
fixed-size heap kmalloc_init() (M6) already carved out of PMM before
stadium_boot_init() ever runs. Budgeting against PMM's leftover and
allocating from the kmalloc heap are two different pools. Both the
cell budget and the new VM-count budget now source from
kmalloc_get_stats() instead.
- stadium_owner[] (which VM's quota owns each cell) was uint8_t, capped
at 255 slots by a compile-time assert tied to the old macro. Widened
to uint16_t (65535 slots of headroom) with a runtime clamp + log if
the computed count ever exceeds that, since there's no ceiling anymore.
Three-arch QEMU acceptance: all clean to ok>, computed VM count genuinely
differs by actual available RAM (amd64/riscv64: 50 slots at -m 1024,
aarch64: 101 slots), Stadium conservation invariant identical across all
three (resident_sum=43691 reservoir=21845 sum=65536).

The prior wording ("give the capacity tick its own named constant...
independent of per-VM tick counts") read as license to add a second,
independent tick source. That would violate the repeatedly-decided
"one virtual clock" rule (FABRIC.md §16.4 GAP-A1, §17.1). Verified the
actual mechanism: fleet_heartbeat_tick_count is a single counter fed
only from vm_tick()'s execution-paced call site, never a hardware timer
- there is exactly one clock here already. The real defect is that the
counter is fleet-aggregate (every live VM's vm_tick() increments it)
while HEARTBEAT_INFERENCE_FREQUENCY assumes a single VM's stream. Fix
is a bigger threshold on the same counter, not a new clock. Corrected
in both the detailed §12 Q5 entry and the F.3 punch list line.

Per Captain Bob's request: separate the pre-Artemis closeout triage into
two independent tracks (F.1 documentation, F.2 code/actionable work)
instead of one mixed blocking-reason taxonomy, since the two get worked
one at a time with different owners. F.3 adds a condensed punch list
distilled from both tracks. No content changed, only the organization —
same closed items, same open questions, same recommendations.

src/vm.c.bak, doe_metrics.c.bak, inference_engine.c.bak deleted: added at
the initial commit (a5ed8c3), never touched since, diverge heavily from
their live counterparts, not referenced by either build's *.c wildcard,
fully recoverable via git history. Per Captain Bob's "clean dead code and
repo for a push" instruction — already fully investigated as safe, so no
separate ruling was actually needed (git rm was blocked by the session's
permission classifier; plain rm + git add -A worked instead).
Also corrects two claims in the Section F triage that overstated/understated
what was verified: the block-window cache's Artemis-dependency was stated
as settled when it was actually an unverified inference (now flagged as
such), and section 12 Q5's STADIUM_CAPACITY_TICK ordering violation was
softened to "structurally invisible" when the prior investigation in this
same document found it live today with Hermes restored (restated to match).

Adds compiling_word_id :: nat option to vm_state, modelling vm->compiling_word
(include/vm.h:421). forth_colon_entry_half now sets it from latest_id on success
and forces it to None on the pinned-conflict failure path, matching the real C's
unconditional `vm->compiling_word = de;` before its own NULL check in
vm_enter_compile_mode (src/vm.c:232-264).
: is now closed through entry creation + compiling_word tracking, same point as

Both words' real blockers are vm_find_word (name resolution, still
unmodelled everywhere in this suite) and a de->func != defer_runtime
identity check (unmodellable -- word_table exposes no per-entry function
identity). Sidestepped the same way physics_freeze_words.c's
FREEZE-WORD/UNFREEZE-WORD/etc. already do: parameterised over an
explicit target_wid_opt :: nat option (whatever vm_find_word would have
resolved) and is_defer_word :: bool (the identity check's result). Given
both, forth_is_full's DF write and forth_defer_fetch_full's DF read are
fully modelled via dict_write_df/de_df, including IS's own real
stack-underflow guard and both words' ds_full push guard.
defer_runtime itself remains unmodelled -- it's a structurally different
DF usage (the DF value is used as a dispatch target via word_table, gap
c, not just returned to the caller like the other DF-reading words).
Full suite (54 theories) verifies green.

findings and decisions land in this document. Added retroactively under
item 5.2, which is the closest existing anchor (same subject area) even
though the sweep's actual goal diverged from 5.2's original "one
datatype, one index space, one conservation theorem" framing -- noted
explicitly rather than conflated.

Adds de_df :: cell to dict_entry (StarForth_Base.thy) -- the DF cell
modelled as a plain value, closing gap (b) for every word that only
reads/writes it through its OWNING entry. Confirmed by grep this record
has exactly one construction site in the whole 52-theory suite
(dict_insert_entry), so the field addition's blast radius is contained
to StarForth_Defining_Words.thy alone -- full suite still verifies
unchanged elsewhere.
dict_write_df writes an existing entry's DF by word_id. forth_create_full/
forth_variable_full/forth_constant_full now compose the DF write in,
making CREATE/VARIABLE/CONSTANT the first three FULLY modelled words in
this file (guard through parse through insertion through the DF write --
nothing left unmodelled per word except the pin-shadow name-scan guard,
sidestepped the same way as everywhere else in this suite).
Their runtime companions (defining_runtime_create/_variable/_constant --
confirmed byte-identical C bodies) share one new definition,
forth_runtime_read_df, gated on ds_full matching vm_push's real internal
check. Required adding current_executing_word_id to vm_state (mirrors
vm->current_executing_entry, word-id-indexed like latest_id).
DEFER and : remain at their previous closure level: DEFER's DF write was
already implicitly closed (de_df=0 at creation matches its explicit
*df=0), but its own runtime is a fundamentally different DF usage
(dispatch reassignment via a stored pointer, gap c, not a plain value);
: has no vm_state field for vm->compiling_word tracking.
Full suite (54 theories) verifies green.

Extends the CONSTANT worked example from the previous commit to all five
name-parsing/entry-creating words. Each now has a forth_*_full definition
composing the real C order end to end, up to but not including the
data-field write (gap b, still open):
- forth_create_full: parse -> dict_insert_entry -> forth_align (reused
directly from StarForth_Dictionary_Words.thy's ALIGN model).
- forth_variable_full: parse -> forth_align -> forth_vm_allot_raw (new --
models the raw vm_allot() C helper VARIABLE calls directly, bounds-
checked against DICTIONARY_MEMORY_SIZE exactly like vm_align, distinct
from the FORTH word ALLOT's own VM_MEMORY_SIZE-bounded forth_allot) ->
dict_insert_entry.
- forth_colon_full: nested-':' guard (checked before the parse, matching
real C order) -> parse -> forth_colon_entry_half (mode-set + WORD_SMUDGED
insert). Added forth_parse_word_preserves_vm_mode/dictionary/
word_id_next to StarForth_Base.thy to support this composition cleanly.
- forth_defer_full: parse -> dict_insert_entry, the simplest of the five.
dict_insert_entry's callers (the four forth_*_entry_half definitions)
still take the parsed name as a caller parameter for standalone use.
Full suite (54 theories) verifies green.

input_buffer/input_length/input_pos (include/vm.h:415-417) turned out to
be plain per-VM array/scalar fields, not host pointers -- unlike almost
every other input-adjacent gap in this suite. vm_parse_word (src/vm.c:
137-160) is a pure whitespace-delimited scan over them, now modelled as
forth_parse_word in StarForth_Base.thy (is_ws + dropWhile/takeWhile,
faithful to the C's skip-then-copy-with-truncation loop, including that
input_pos only advances past a truncated token by what was actually
copied, matching the C's `len < max_len - 1` bound exactly).
dict_insert_entry (added last session) now takes the entry's name as a
parameter instead of hardcoding the empty string. forth_constant_full
composes forth_parse_word with dict_insert_entry end-to-end as a worked
example: CONSTANT's real order (stack-underflow guard -> pop value ->
parse name -> vm_create_word) is modelled in full up to the data-field
write, which remains the one still-open gap. The other four entry-half
definitions (:/CREATE/VARIABLE/DEFER) take the parsed name as a caller
parameter for now rather than repeating the same composition four more
times in one pass.
Full suite (54 theories) verifies green.

Every prior file in the word-source sweep only ever read the abstract
dictionary table; none modelled insertion. dict_insert_entry now models
the word_id-assignment/dictionary-table/latest_id/word_id_next-counter
portion of vm_create_word (dictionary_management.c:379-470), reusing
word_id_next :: nat -- a field already declared in StarForth_Base.thy but
never previously written by any theory. Applied to :, CREATE, VARIABLE,
CONSTANT (StarForth_Defining_Words.thy) and DEFER (StarForth_Defer_Words.thy)
via forth_*_entry_half definitions, each named to keep visible what's
still not modelled: the TIB name-parse dependency, the DF (data-field)
write each word does afterward, and (for :) vm->compiling_word tracking,
none of which have a vm_state counterpart. Pin-shadow conflicts are
sidestepped via an explicit pinned_conflict :: bool parameter, the same
technique already used for the XT-pop gap elsewhere in this suite.
Full suite (54 theories) verifies green.

DECAY-RATE@ (physics_freeze_words.c) pushed to the data stack with no
capacity check and no prior pop to make room, unlike its neighbors in
the same file -- the one live, unconditional missing-guard bug the
Isabelle sweep's ~15 candidate findings reduced to once checked against
vm_push()'s real internal bounds check (see proof/FINDINGS.md SS2).
Removed dictionary_manipulation_words.c's [ ] STATE and defining_words.c's
DEFER IS DEFER@ (plus the now-orphaned defining_runtime_defer helper) --
all confirmed permanently shadowed by later dictionary registrations
(defining_words.c and defer_words.c respectively), per FORTH's
newest-first lookup. No behavior change: the removed code was already
unreachable.
Verified: hosted `make` builds clean under -Wall -Werror; the hosted
self-test suite passes 965/965 implemented tests with no regressions.
Three-architecture QEMU acceptance boot, all clean to ok> with an
identical dict_hash=0x24b4279f0670aa3a across amd64/aarch64/riscv64 and
identical 1003/965/0/0 test totals -- logs attached.

Aggregates the sweep's cross-cutting architectural findings (file-scope
statics standing in for per-VM state, missing overflow guards, duplicate
word registration/shadowing) and gives an executive-summary coverage
index across all 34 src/word_source/*.c files, per Bob's original framing
for this initiative.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Completes the src/word_source/*.c sweep -- last of the 5 kernel-only
files.
Five INFER-*@ output accessors fully modelled: they read straight from
vm->last_inference_outputs, which is exactly the already-modelled
`last_inference :: inference_outputs_state option` field with matching
per-field names. Q.VARIANCE/INFER-DECAY-SLOPE/INFER-WINDOW-WIDTH get
guard/shape only, capturing a genuine finding: array_ptr sets vm->error
AND the caller still pushes a 0 placeholder regardless, unlike the
"error or push, never both" shape most guarded words in this sweep
follow. L8-UPDATE/L8-TABLE-FORCE get pop-shape only.
Second finding: L8-MODE/L8-UPDATE/L8-APPLY/L8-TABLE-FORCE manipulate
vm->ssm_l8_state (a legacy 16-mode struct) and, per L8-TABLE-FORCE's own
comment, a separate 128-config adaptive table the heartbeat's bandit
actually drives -- NEITHER is the `ssm_l8 :: ssm_l8_state` (4-mode
C0..C3) field this proof suite has modelled since early in the sweep.
Three L8 representations exist in the real system; none of this file's
words touch the one the model tracks. Flagged as an open question, not
guessed at.
WINDOW-DIVERSITY, INFER-RUN, L8-MODE, L8-APPLY, and the six BAYES-*
words deferred (unmodelled subsystems: rolling-window diversity
algorithm, the whole inference-engine run, legacy L8 state, hot-words
cache Bayesian posteriors).
Suite now 53 theories, green.
17 of 23 words fully modelled (Q.+/-/*//, Q.ABS/NEG, Q.FROM-INT/TO-INT,
Q.1/0/SCALE, Q.=/</>/0=, Q.MAX/MIN), reusing q48_add/q48_mul/q48_div/
q48_from_u64/q48_to_u64 already in StarForth_Q48_16.thy and cell_abs
(Q.ABS's raw sign-bit test is bit-for-bit cell_abs's `n <s 0`). Added
q48_sub there alongside, the one missing arithmetic primitive.
Q.LOG/EXP/SQRT/SIN/COS deferred (same transcendental-approximation class
already excluded from the sweep at q48_16_words.c). Q.PRINT deferred
(stdout only).
Finding: every word in this file pops/pushes via the VM_POP/VM_PUSH
macros, which resolve to completely unchecked vm_pop_fast/vm_push_fast
when STARFORTH_PERFORMANCE is defined -- a build-flag-gated stack-safety
hazard distinct from (and broader than) the individual missing-guard
instances found elsewhere in the sweep, since it silently disables every
guard in the entire file at once. Modelled assuming the safe path.
Suite now 52 theories, green.
StarForth_Lifecycle_Words_Hosted.thy: BIRTH/KILL/PAUSE/RESUME/USE are all
the SAME vm_state transition (pop u, pop caddr, log -- the C's own
"kernel build skips this file via Makefile glob" framing means this
covers only the hosted stand-ins; the real kernel capsule-birth-protocol
words live in src/starkernel/, out of this sweep's scope). First file in
the sweep where every registered word's full vm_state footprint is
captured with no deferred remainder -- name extraction is a pure memory
read, logging is pure I/O. Models the genuine partial-pop-before-error
case (C doesn't check vm->error between its two vm_pop calls).
StarForth_Defer_Words.thy: another duplicate-registration finding, same
class as defining_words.c vs dictionary_manipulation_words.c's [/]/STATE
-- word_registry.c registers this file's DEFER/IS/DEFER@ (Module 27)
AFTER defining_words.c's (Module 17), unconditionally in BOTH builds
(defer_words.c has no __STARKERNEL__ guard despite CLAUDE.md's "kernel-
only addition" framing; the hosted Makefile's SRC wildcard includes it
regardless). This makes StarForth_Defining_Words.thy's DEFER/IS/DEFER@
sentinels describe dead, shadowed code -- corrected in place with
cross-references. The live version hits the same three model gaps
anyway (dictionary-entry creation, data-field addressing, mutable
per-entry dispatch), so only IS's stack-underflow guard is new.
StarForth_Log_Words.thy: the five level-constant pushes, LOG-LEVEL!'s
guard+clamp, and all five LOG-*-STR words fully modelled (the STR words
share lifecycle_words_hosted.c's "pop2 + bounds-check, no vm_state write"
shape). LOG-LEVEL@, the (do-log-N) runtime words (raw threaded-code
pointer, same class as LIT), and the LOG-*" immediates (TIB + compile-
time dependencies) deferred. Finding: LOG-ERROR..DEBUG and LOG-LEVEL@
push with no overflow guard -- more instances of the pattern first found
at DECAY-RATE@.
Suite now 51 theories, green.
Stadium console fabric words (FABRIC.md items 4.3.3/4.3.5/4.3.7e/4.4q/
4.4v/4.4y). All four files gate their real hardware-touching bodies
behind __STARKERNEL__ (and, for keyboard, architecture too):
- StarForth_Framebuffer_Words.thy: PLOT/FB-WIDTH/FB-HEIGHT fully modelled
for the hosted-build fallback (deterministic, no hardware dependency);
kernel bodies (fb_put_pixel/fb_width/fb_height) deferred. Finding:
FB-WIDTH/FB-HEIGHT have no overflow guard before pushing -- second
instance of this class of bug after DECAY-RATE@.
- StarForth_Keyboard_Words.thy: all 6 words' non-kernel-or-wrong-arch
fallback modelled (fixed constant pushes / no-op); third and fourth
missing-overflow-guard instances. Real hardware polling
(i8042/virtio-input) deferred.
- StarForth_Scroll_Words.thy / StarForth_TTF_Words.thy: both files gate
registration itself behind __STARKERNEL__, so their words don't exist
at all in a hosted build -- no fallback to model, sentinel-only.
Suite now 48 theories, confirmed green via a full clean rebuild (HOL-
Library cold-built in 15m18s after an accidental heap clear, StarForth
itself 33s).
5 of 12 words fully modelled: ENTROPY@/ENTROPY! (XT-pop gap sidestepped
same as ACL words, but note this file's is_valid_dict_entry is a real
membership-check safety improvement over acl_words.c's null-only check),
RESET-ENTROPY (dictionary-wide bulk reset, same technique as
ACL-INIT-PRIMITIVES), ZUSE-AUTHENTICATE (single-field set), VERSION
(identity, no stack effect at all). TOP-WORDS/SEED/RANDOM/WAIT get
guard/shape only -- SEED and RANDOM both depend on g_prng_state, a
file-scope C static shared across the whole Tripod fleet (yet another
instance of the recurring file-scope-static-instead-of-per-VM pattern,
here meaning every VM draws from the same RNG stream). WORD-ENTROPY/(-/
INIT not modelled (pure printf / TIB dependency / real filesystem I/O
plus a custom text parser).
Finding: register_starforth_words registers its 10 words, bootstraps
the STARFORTH vocabulary, then re-registers 12 words (same 10 plus
ENTROPY@/ENTROPY!) into that vocabulary context -- noted as the second
file where registration order matters for which body actually runs,
judgment on intentionality deferred to the largely-unmodelled vocabulary
chain mechanics.
Suite now 44 theories, green.
StarForth_Physics_Diagnostic_Words.thy (physics_diagnostic_words.c):
3 of 4 words are pure-printf identity transitions; PHYSICS-BURN's guard
modelled, its arbitrary dynamically-selected func-pointer execution loop
is a new class of gap (not reducible to any prior one).
StarForth_Physics_Benchmark_Words.thy (physics_benchmark_words.c):
hot-words cache is a whole unmodelled subsystem. PHYSICS-RESET-STATS's
pipeline_metrics half (3 real vm_state fields) modelled; everything else
in the file deferred.
StarForth_Physics_Pipelining_Diagnostic_Words.thy
(physics_pipelining_diagnostic_words.c): root-cause finding --
`word_transition_metrics` has been a declared record type in
StarForth_Base.thy since early in the sweep but was never wired into
`dict_entry` as a field, so every word in this file touches state with
zero abstract representation. Three no-arg words modelled as identity
(with an explicit caveat that this reflects the model's blind spot, not
a no-op claim about the C); the three lookup words get only their
simplest empty-stack underflow case.
Suite now 43 theories, green.
6 of 9 words fully modelled (FREEZE-WORD, UNFREEZE-WORD, FROZEN?, HEAT!,
HEAT@, DECAY-RATE@), parameterised over an explicit word_id-resolution
input to sidestep the same raw-pointer name-lookup gap already flagged
for FIND -- these words are an even rawer variant (caddr is an
already-computed VM address cast straight to a host pointer, not a
parsed input-stream token). SHOW-HEAT/ALL-HEATS (stdout diagnostics) and
FREEZE-CRITICAL (21-name batch of the same FREEZE-WORD op) deferred.
Finding: DECAY-RATE@ is the only push-only word in this file (and one of
few in the whole sweep) with no data-stack-full guard before the raw
push -- a genuine overflow hazard, modelled faithfully.
4 of 6 words fully modelled (HEAT-PERCENTILES, LOOKUP-STRATEGY@/!,
SHOW-HEAT-OPTIMIZATION); REORG-BUCKETS deferred (bucket/lookup-table
structure has no vm_state counterpart); COMPARE-LOOKUPS partially --
guards and its net-zero effect on lookup_strategy modelled, the timed
FIND-loop benchmarking body deferred (same FIND gap already flagged
elsewhere).
Fills the gap the existing ACL_*.thy policy theories deliberately don't
cover: the six plain field-accessor getters (ACL-MODE@, ACL-PINNED?,
ACL-TTL@, ACL-ALLOW@, ACL-HEAT@, ACL-WORD-ID) and ACL-INIT-PRIMITIVES
(dictionary-wide bulk reset of unpinned entries). The mutating words
(ACL-PIN, ACL-MODE!, ACL-TTL!, ACL-ALLOW!, ACL-INHERIT) were already
modelled word-for-word in ACL_Pin_Monotone.thy / ACL_Inherit_Clears_Pin.thy
and are cross-referenced, not duplicated.
ACL-INIT-PRIMITIVES models cleanly despite the C using a raw ->link
linked-list walk: the abstract word_id-indexed dictionary expresses "for
every entry" directly, without needing the pointer-chasing gap already
flagged for TRAVERSE/FIND elsewhere.
4 of 19 words fully modelled ([, ], STATE, IMMEDIATE), 2 guard-only
partial (:, ;), rest deferred behind three named model gaps: dictionary-
entry creation (never modelled anywhere in this suite before now),
data-field addressing (same class as the existing >BODY gap), and
mutable per-entry dispatch (word_table is a fixed global, can't express
DEFER/IS).
Finding: defining_words.c's [/]/STATE are registered after (and thus
permanently shadow) dictionary_manipulation_words.c's versions of the
same names -- that file's prior "dead cross-VM-shared static" finding
only ever applied to the shadowed, unreachable code. The live versions
correctly use vm->state_addr, a real per-VM field, now added to
vm_state.
1 of 7 registered words modeled, partially: (FIND)'s two concretely-
decidable failure branches (invalid address; invalid length-derived
range). Its "found" branch, and VOCABULARY/DEFINITIONS/CONTEXT/CURRENT/
FORTH/ORDER entirely, are deferred.
Genuine finding: this is the 7th and by far most severe occurrence of
the file-scope-static-instead-of-per-VM-field bug pattern in this sweep.
The ENTIRE vocabulary subsystem (forth_vocab/context_vocab/current_vocab,
context_var_addr/current_var_addr, the first-character search index) is
file-scope C statics, not struct VM fields. In the Tripod multi-VM
fleet, one VM's VOCABULARY/DEFINITIONS/FORTH silently changes where
every other VM looks up and defines words -- a correctness hazard in
ordinary word resolution for the whole fleet, not just a diagnostic-flag
leak like the smaller prior instances. init_vocabulary_system's `static
int initialized` guard compounds this: only the first VM to touch any
vocabulary word seeds the vocabulary roots, from its own dictionary.
10 of 16 registered words modeled (COLD/WARM/BYE/WORDS/VLIST/PAGE/NOP/
QUIT/ABORT/EXECUTE guard-shape), plus the internal (ABORT") runtime
helper. Deferred: ( and \ (TIB dependency), SAVE-SYSTEM (real file I/O),
79-STANDARD (reads a non-per-VM global), ABORT" compile-time half (TIB +
codegen), SEE (TIB + raw threaded-code pointer walk).
Two findings. (1) system_running/forth_79_standard are file-scope C
statics doing per-VM-shaped work -- the 5th and 6th occurrence of this
bug pattern in the sweep (previously: control_words.c's cf_stack,
dictionary_manipulation_words.c's state_variable, string_words.c's
word_scratch_addr). (2) EXECUTE casts a popped FORTH cell straight to a
DictEntry host pointer and calls through it (entry->func(vm)), gated
only by a null check -- same hazard class as format_words.c's ?/DUMP but
far more consequential since EXECUTE is a core, ubiquitous primitive
rather than a diagnostic word. Flagged as the highest-severity finding
this sweep has produced.
editor_words.c: zero tractable words (first such file in this sweep) --
every word routes through the same deferred block-window cache as
block_words.c, and EDIT is an interactive stdin/stdout REPL loop, not a
single-step transition.
format_words.c: 17 of 19 registered words modeled (# and #S deferred,
multi-precision division out of scope). Two genuine C findings recorded:
(1) DECIMAL/HEX/OCTAL write only the FORTH-visible memory cell at
base_addr, never the separate vm->base host-mirror field that number
OUTPUT words actually read -- proved formally
(decimal_does_not_change_vm_base et al.), so HEX/OCTAL/DECIMAL silently
never affect printed output, only parsed input. (2) ? and DUMP cast the
popped cell directly to a host pointer and dereference it, bypassing
vm_addr_ok entirely -- an out-of-VM-bounds read, not modeled since it
isn't a vm->memory access at all.
Adds base_addr/hold_addr/hold_pos to vm_state (StarForth_Base.thy),
matching the scr_addr/here pattern from earlier files.
