Work in progress on StarForth-v4.0.0; not yet accepted (plan 2026-10-29-stick-5, Task 1). - zuse_genesis_marker.h: the marker's version 2 -- the proxy's key and the real Zuse's -- beside version 1. - capsule_zuse_boot.c: capsule_zuse_boot_check_key() (the identity-record half of the check) and capsule_zuse_boot_genesis_mint() (the mint half of v3's genesis) split out; v3's two callers unchanged in behaviour. - sk_v4_marker.c: the v4 boot reads version 1 as a proxy with no real Zuse, and writes version 2. - sk_v4_identity.c: no marker and a blank identity partition -> genesis: mint, read back, then the marker; the proxy logs in. A marker with a real key: no session for the proxy (the fixed screen is Task 5). - qemu_session.py: boot()/shutdown(), so a mode can boot twice; modes genesis and stick_genesis; stick_boot now expects genesis and the prompt. Logs: genesis on amd64 before the change (both boots: "no genesis on this disk", FAIL) and after (minted, then recognised: PASS). The DoE CSV of 032532 is from a run whose QEMU never started (no display; its empty log directory was removed).

src/starkernel/
LithosAnanke — the bare-metal UEFI kernel that boots StarForth directly on
hardware (amd64/aarch64/riscv64). Built only via Makefile.starkernel; the
only valid acceptance test is the three-arch QEMU boot (see
.claude/CLAUDE.md), never make test.
kernel_main.c— kernel entry point, driving the boot milestones (console init, PMM, VMM, interrupts, timers, kmalloc heap, VM bootstrap).repl.c— kernel REPL.doe_log.c— kernel-side DoE (Design of Experiments) metrics logging.
Subdirectories:
arch/{amd64,aarch64,riscv64}/— per-architecture support (APIC/GIC/ PLIC interrupt controller, timers, boot/ISR assembly).boot/— UEFI loader, ELF loading, kernel command-line parsing.capsule/— capsule birth/run/load/validate pipeline.hal/— hardware-abstraction-layer implementation (console, framebuffer, VT100, memory, host services).hash/— XXHash64 content-addressing implementation.math/— kernel-build Q48.16 fixed-point arithmetic.memory/— physical/virtual memory managers and the kernel heap.pci/— PCI bus enumeration.virtio/— VirtIO block device driver.vm/— kernel VM subsystem (bootstrap, core interpreter, parity logging, capsule arena).
