FABRIC-3.md XXXIV.1, traced and fixed. vm_interpret() copied each text into the VM's one input buffer and reset the position. LOAD runs its block by calling it, so the block replaced the line LOAD was on and nothing after LOAD or THRU on that line was ever interpreted; the same for -->, a capsule's EXEC and a message kernel-Hermes delivers. vm_interpret() now keeps what the outer text had not yet read when it is called from inside another, and puts it back after, as FORTH-79's LOAD keeps the input stream it interrupts. In the kernel's VM and the hosted one alike. POST: LOAD.rest_of_line (1 LOAD 0 0 /) and THRU.rest_of_line (1 2 THRU 0 0 /) failed without the fix (logs/20261014-061222) and pass with it. Three-ISA acceptance: logs/20261014-061508 (amd64), -061624 (aarch64), -061837 (riscv64), 1052 tests, none failed, zuse prompt, hash 0x08873e0f44b7cb2a unchanged. The hosted binary: 100 LOAD 1 + . gives 8. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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material, and an archive of superseded docs.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 and the
word-level ACL system design. (Note: the fleet is now Hera/Artemis/Hestia post-
reshuffle; the old Hera/Hermes/Artemis framing in older docs is historical. The older,
triaged copy of this tree is
working/architecture/03-architecture/.) - 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
⚠
INDEX.mdis a dated triage snapshot (2026-06-16) and is stale. The authoritative current status lives in.claude/CLAUDE.mdanddocs/fabric/FABRIC-2.md/FABRIC-3.md/FABRIC-3.5.md/FABRIC-3.6.md— not in the status tags inINDEX.md.
- LithosAnanke M7.1 — live — init capsules, the Tripod fleet, Stadium physics-economy,
and word-level ACL (Phases 1–7 complete; Phase 8 Ed25519 PKI pending). See
lithosananke/ROADMAP.mdand the FABRIC documents above. - Tripod VMs (post-reshuffle) — Hera (governor), Artemis (memory/block storage),
Hestia; the Hermes VM was removed and messaging moved into the kernel as kernel-Hermes.
See
.claude/CLAUDE.md. - StarForth v4 — the F18-derived 32-opcode engine with the node/mesh design. See
v4.0.0/and../v4/README.md. - Word-level ACL system — see
03-architecture/word-acl/andlithosananke/ROADMAP.md.
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.
