Disabled capsules/artemis/init.4th block 4170's ART-STRESS-CAMPAIGN -- its own comment already said to revert to disabled once the K-invariant/ heartbeat verification run (item 4.6, closed earlier this session) was done. This was the actual ~25-30 minute wall blocking interactive REPL access, unrelated to any DoE mechanism. Verified capsules/turtle.4th and capsules/sdk.4th live in a gtk-display QEMU session: a red hexagon (6 100 POLYGON) and a green self-intersecting star (100 STAR) both render with correct geometry and color. Screenshot in evidence/amd64/. Two real obstacles found and worked around along the way: CS's full- framebuffer PLOT loop is far slower under TCG than previously documented (closer to 20+ minutes than "slow"), and the kernel's heartbeat CSV logging draws to the same console surface PLOT writes pixels to, overwriting drawings within a fraction of a second unless silenced first with the existing HB-OFF word. Both HOWTOs updated to record this. Re-verified full three-arch acceptance boot (POST, DoE, parity) with the ART-STRESS-CAMPAIGN change: 1012/0/0 and matching dict_hash on all three, identical to the pre-change baseline.

StarForth / LithosAnanke Documentation
This is the lithosananke branch: the bare-metal StarKernel side of the project
(contrast master, which is the hosted-VM-only side). Documentation follows the
two-tier model described in docs/CLAUDE.md: formal/ is the polished,
citable LaTeX tier; working/ is living design notes and drafts that feed it.
Everything else in this directory is branch- or subsystem-specific material that
doesn't fit either tier.
Layout
- formal/ — Three-volume LaTeX documentation set (research volumes,
practitioner books, standalone reports) plus the
scraps/fragment library it's assembled from. Audience: patent counsel, SSRN reviewers, licensees, hobbyists with hardware in hand. Seeformal/CLAUDE.mdfor authoring conventions. - working/ — Living documents: architecture design notes, DoE
experiment logs, hardware/platform notes, draft specs, academic-paper source
material, and an archive of superseded docs. Source material for
formal/. - 03-architecture/ — Tripod VM architecture constraints (Hera/Hermes/Artemis) and the word-level ACL system design.
- lithosananke/ — LithosAnanke kernel branch documentation: milestone roadmap, system architecture, HAL reference, kernel command-line argument design, and the amd64 APIC-timer ISR postmortem.
- birthing/ — VM birthing plan and status for the Hera-spawns- Hermes/Artemis constellation, plus three-architecture QEMU acceptance logs.
- patent/ — Provisional patent application source. Legal hold — ask Bob before touching anything in this directory.
- api/ — Generated Doxygen tag file and warnings log (gitignored; not part of the tracked doc tree).
- pptx/ — Elevator-pitch and deep-dive slide decks for different audiences (technical, non-technical, academic, PhD-level).
Current Active Work
- LithosAnanke M7/M7.1 — VM parity validation and init capsule architecture.
See
lithosananke/README.mdandlithosananke/M7.1.md. - Word-level ACL system — Phase 6 complete on
master; Phase 7 (LithosAnanke parity) is the next step. See03-architecture/word-acl/README.md. - Tripod VMs — Hera (governor), Hermes (messenger), Artemis (memory/block
storage). See
03-architecture/tripod/README.mdandbirthing/.
Contributing
- Place new material in
working/first; promote toformal/only when it's ready to be cited (seeformal/CLAUDE.mdfor promotion criteria). - Never touch
patent/,formal/patent/,formal/scraps/legal/, orworking/legal/without Bob's explicit instruction. - Add a
README.mdto any new category-level subdirectory, following the format used throughout this tree: orientation paragraph + bullet list of real files with one-line descriptions.
