sk_hermes_publish() now enforces SK_HERMES_CHUNK_MAX_PAYLOAD (1024) on every message's payload_len uniformly, chunked or not -- closing the gap task 3.3 explicitly parked. A chunk carrier is [SkHermesChunkHeader][content slice], slice capped at 1024 - sizeof(header) rather than 1024 itself, so every message on the wire satisfies the same one-block bound vm_interpret()'s own drain limit already requires -- a future chunk-aware drain never has to special-case a carrier that can't be handed to vm_interpret() as-is. Deliberately no chunking-sender API: building one would need kernel-Hermes to own chunk-buffer memory with a real lifetime it has no way to track (kept alive until every subscriber drains it). Sending is a loop pattern a caller writes with sk_hermes_chunk_count() + sk_hermes_publish(), demonstrated by this task's own self-test. sk_hermes_reassemble() is pure and memory-agnostic: validates msg_id agreement, exact seq coverage, and per-chunk slice sizes before a single memcpy, with the total length computed once and checked against the caller's buffer once -- never order-dependent on which chunk happens to overflow. Verified live on all three architectures: a 1024-byte payload as one message, a 1025-byte send refused outright with the ledger untouched, and a 3000-byte payload split into 3 chunks, drained, and reassembled byte-exact against the original. dict_hash unmoved and identical across architectures.
