enforcement) Automated driver (scratchpad run_cell.sh) replicating Section R's validated pilot procedure per cell: independent clean build, boot, load doe.4th, load ACL.4th + ZUSE-AUTHENTICATE for enabled cells, HB-OFF/HB-ON bracketed HEARTBEAT-TICKS@ before/after a seed/30-rep EXEC-DOE run. Randomized 18-cell order (9 arch/seed pairs x 2 ACL states), same discipline as Section P/Q. 4/18: amd64/13579/enabled, riscv64/12345/enabled, riscv64/12345/disabled, amd64/12345/disabled -- all 480/480 rows, 0 errors.

capsules/
FORTH personality files loaded by the VM at boot. A capsule is an immutable, content-addressed payload; its XXHash64 hash is its identity. Any mutation changes the hash and the birth protocol rejects the image.

Block namespace
Block ranges are shared across all loaded capsules — collisions cause silent word-definition overwrites.
| Range | Owner |
|---|---|
| 2048–2099 | init.4th |
| 2100–2199 | doe.4th |
| 3000–3999 | workload capsules |
| 4000+ | user-defined (ACL.4th, zuse.4th, …) |
Each block is limited to 1024 bytes. Verify with wc -c before committing.
