- Each entry's flags cell also holds v3's four fields: denied, pinned, mode and a 16-bit TTL. - compile.v4: INTERPRET checks every word it is about to execute or compile -- recheck at TTL 0, else count down; a denied word is refused with v3's line, the stack emptied and the line ended. - capsule/acl.v4: ACL-MODE@ ACL-MODE! ACL-TTL@ ACL-TTL! ACL-ALLOW@ ACL-ALLOW! ACL-PINNED? ACL-PIN ACL-INHERIT ACL-INIT-PRIMITIVES ACL-HEAT@ ACL-WORD-ID, and ACL-HOOK. - capsule/ACL.fth: v3's ACL.4th as FORTH source the node compiles; loading it switches access control on. - v3 checks every execution, inside definitions too. v4's code is native, so it checks a word when it is compiled as well as when interpreted; a call compiled while the word was allowed is not checked again. DECOMPOSITION.md 5.20 says so. - ACL-HEAT@ is 0 until heat is readable (D-6). - tests/test_host_quit.c: seven transcripts of the v3 binary; the policy file loaded and exercised; COLD.

v4/
StarForth v4: the 32-instruction F18-derived core. The design lives in
docs/v4.0.0/JUSTIFICATION.md (why) and docs/v4.0.0/DECOMPOSITION.md
(every v3 word mapped to a v4 fate).
The first deliverable is the hosted C99 golden model (JUSTIFICATION.md §10,
step 1). It must pass POST and hold K≡1.0 with 32- and 64-bit cells on all
three host ISAs.
Acceptance (JUSTIFICATION.md §16): v4 must be equivalent to v3 at any point
in time, with the same vocabularies and behaviour, on the F18-derived engine;
and every ISA, hosted and bare metal, must still reach its ok prompt.
make -C v4 test passing is a development check, not acceptance.
What exists so far is the single node: registers, circular stacks, memory, all
32 opcodes, per-opcode and per-call-target heat, and three console
registers (CONSOLE-TX, which captures output, and CONSOLE-RX and CONSOLE-STATUS, which hand out
input a test feeds) standing in for the console node until the mesh exists. The tests load definitions
onto a node either opcode by opcode (v4/include/v4/asm.h) or as text in the notation DECOMPOSITION.md
uses (v4/include/v4/text.h). make -C v4 test builds
and runs the tests at both cell widths; make -C v4 sanitize repeats them
under ASan and UBSan. There is no compiler capsule, no POST and no K
measurement yet.
