Robert Allan JamesandClaude Opus 5.5 9bf2e8ec95 Fix out-of-bounds stack pushes/pops in four vendored word files (found during S-1a)
physics_freeze_words.c, dictionary_heat_diagnostic_words.c,
physics_diagnostic_words.c, physics_benchmark_words.c treated dsp as a
count (data_stack[dsp++] push, data_stack[--dsp] pop) while the VM's dsp
is the top index. On an empty stack a push wrote data_stack[-1], 8 bytes
before the VM struct -- POST's DECAY-RATE@ test did it every boot (on
aarch64 it hit parity.c's counter, elsewhere the POST block RAM tail).
All 28 sites now use vm_pop/vm_push; four one-item guards fixed (dsp<0).

Evidence on amd64/aarch64/riscv64: bytes before the VM struct unchanged
across POST; DECAY-RATE@ leaves 1 item; LOOKUP-STRATEGY! now works;
G interleave, precedence, console under load, relay 3, dict_hash unchanged.

Design of Experiments (DoE) campaign data and analysis for the LithosAnanke kernel.

  • bare_metal/ — the bare-metal DoE experiment: blind full-factorial 2⁴ runs measuring the L8 Jacquard mode selector's effect on the Steady-State Machine across amd64/aarch64/riscv64. See experiments/bare_metal/README.md for the full directory layout (runs/, latest/, analysis/{charts,tables,report}).

Hosted-VM DoE campaigns (factorial/heartbeat/ablation studies) live under docs/working/experiments/ instead — this top-level directory is specifically the kernel/bare-metal side.
