vm->heartbeat.tick_count (FORTH-dispatch counter) Captain Bob's law is unambiguous: the adaptive heartbeat is the one and only clock, full stop. The first cut of this word read the wrong counter under that name -- vm->heartbeat.tick_count is a colon-word- dispatch counter gated at a fixed cadence (frozen during idle, blind to per-dispatch CPU cost, see FABRIC-2.md Section Q). The real adaptive heartbeat is heartbeat_ticks() in src/starkernel/heartbeat.c, driven directly by the ISR-latched 100Hz hardware timer -- genuinely time-based, confirmed advancing during idle wall-clock time on all three architectures (amd64 4039->5510, aarch64 6126->7607, riscv64 2965->4466, each over ~15s idle). Kernel build only (__STARKERNEL__); hosted build has no ISR timer and keeps the old fallback. Three-arch QEMU acceptance: POST 1012/0/0 on each, word live-tested.

FORTH-79 word implementations, one file per category, registered into the
dictionary via include/word_registry.h. Each .c file here has a
matching header in src/word_source/include/ and (for most categories) a
matching test module in src/test_runner/modules/.

mama_forth_words.h, whose .c implementation lives under
src/starkernel/capsule/ since it's kernel-only).
