WIREBIND cert verification: load Zuse's root pubkey independently of her live session
Root cause of the remaining "identity attach doesn't complete when Zuse never attaches this boot" issue: capsule_wirebind_verify_cert() gated on mama_vm->zuse_cert_installed, which is only ever set when Zuse's own drive attaches and authenticates this specific boot (capsule_zuse_boot_try_attach() -> install_and_activate() -> vm_zuse_cert_install()). Without her, any other identity's WIREBIND cert verification silently refused -- correctly, by the old design, but that design conflated two genuinely different things: "can mint new identities" (needs Zuse's live private seed, a real privileged operation) and "can verify an existing identity's cert" (needs nothing but her already-public key). That public key was already being persisted independently of her live session: zuse_genesis_marker_t (zuse_genesis_marker.h) stores it in the kernel's own top-of-device metadata fence (Artemis's resident storage), written once at genesis, specifically *not* alongside her private seed (which stays only on her own removable thumbdrive) -- the type's own doc comment says as much. It just wasn't being loaded for anything but confirming which drive is genuinely hers. Fix: a new capsule_zuse_boot_load_root_pubkey() (capsule_zuse_boot.c) reads that marker and populates two new VM fields, zuse_root_pubkey_known / zuse_root_pubkey (vm.h) -- deliberately separate from zuse_cert_installed/zuse_cert_seed/zuse_cert_pubkey, which stay untouched and still gate MINT exactly as before. Called once from kernel_main.c as soon as Artemis's own storage attaches, unconditionally, independent of whether Zuse's own drive is ever attached this boot. capsule_wirebind_verify_cert()/capsule_wirebind_try_attach() now check zuse_root_pubkey_known instead of zuse_cert_installed. One identity's attach must not depend on another identity's live presence -- each identity stands on its own once the fleet's root of trust has been established once, ever. Verified live, amd64: identity 00 (disk/thumbdrives/00-thumb-ident.img) now attaches and completes WIREBIND in 19 seconds with Zuse's own drive never attached this boot at all (previously: unbounded, many real minutes or effectively never, before today's other fixes; still slow/ stuck after those, stuck specifically on this silent refusal). Zuse's own attach flow re-verified unaffected (regression check, amd64). Three-arch clean qemu acceptance (amd64/aarch64/riscv64) passed with this change included.

Four bugs found live verifying the 8 identity thumbdrives (FABRIC-3.md §IX)
All found by actually running the identity workflow §VII/§VIII made possible, not by code review: 1. Zuse/WIREBIND cross-contamination on detach: capsule_zuse_boot_logout() and capsule_wirebind_unclean_detach() both had no device parameter, so an unrelated device detaching (while the real owner's own stayed attached) incorrectly tore down the wrong session. Both now compare the departing device against their own tracked one, mirroring capsule_wirebind.c's pre-existing g_wirebind_attached_dev precedent. 2. Dictionary-entry memory leak: vm_create_word()'s sf_malloc()'d DictEntry (plus a second per-entry allocation for transition_metrics) was never freed by vm_cleanup(), in both the hosted and kernel implementations. Caused a real kernel PANIC after 8-9 repeated VM birth/kill cycles in one boot. Fixed by walking vm->latest in both. 3. sf_malloc/sf_free (alloc_kernel.c) was a 4MB bump arena with a deliberate no-op free, sized on "VM born once, never killed" -- fix #2 alone didn't stop the panic because free() itself discarded the pointer regardless. Given a real free list (first-fit reuse). 4. Headless-console gate didn't re-engage after a mid-boot logout: the original fix (sk_console_mark_login(), one-way sticky) only gated the first login of the boot. Replaced with a live check (sk_console_identity_present()) re-evaluated continuously, including inside sk_console_readline()'s own blocking idle loop -- the console is normally sitting blocked there when a hot-unplug logout happens, so checking only at the top of the REPL loop wasn't enough. Also: MINT now verifies its own write (verify_mint(), capsule_mint.c) by reading back through the same check a real attach performs, rather than trusting blkio_write()'s BLK_OK alone -- logged via log_message(), not console_println(), per direct instruction. Verified live, amd64: the full 8-identity repeated attach/detach cycle that previously panicked at the same point every time now completes clean, and a full serial-log sweep found zero bare unauthenticated prompts anywhere in the run. Three-arch clean-qemu acceptance passed. Still open, not fixed here: a 3+-simultaneous-device USB enumeration failure found in a separate live test, not yet root-caused.

Rename FABRIC series: FABRIC.md->0, FABRIC-2.md->1, FABRIC-3.md->2, FABRIC-4.md unchanged
FABRIC.md -> FABRIC-0.md FABRIC-2.md -> FABRIC-1.md FABRIC-3.md -> FABRIC-2.md (the current/living document) FABRIC-4.md unchanged (new #3 to follow separately) Every cross-reference repo-wide updated to match, including doc-comment citations inside kernel source (.c/.h) files -- done via an ordered placeholder substitution (FABRIC-3.md->placeholder2, FABRIC-2.md-> placeholder1, FABRIC.md->placeholder0, then placeholders resolved to final names) in a single pass per file to avoid double-shifting already-renamed references. One line in capsules/font.4th grew past the 64-char block-format limit as a side effect of the longer filename; shortened it and reverified with mkcapsule --lint (34/34 pass) before rebuilding. Verified 3-arch boot to ok> (amd64/aarch64/riscv64, each in the foreground) after the fix; logs and DoE CSVs from this session's verification runs included per this repo's own audit-artifact convention.

FABRIC-3.md §I.3/§I.8: WIREBIND EJECT/detach + EXPIRE re-scoped as logout
Closes §I.3 (Milestone 5 remainder): WIREBIND now tracks which VM is attached via the home-blocks USB path, and a new EJECT word plus the existing hot-unplug signal both flush/reset-console/kill through it (FABRIC-3.md §F.10). Closes §I.8 (EXPIRE/ACL), re-scoped: the original "admit the zuse session as a Stadium patron and reap on TTL" plan was invalidated a second time -- Zuse authenticates directly onto Hera, who is patron zero and permanently pinned, so there is no patron for a reap sweep to ever find. Built instead as a detach-triggered logout (capsule_zuse_boot_logout()), the same trigger EJECT/hot-unplug use for regular WIREBIND users, so neither identity is a special case. Required a companion fix: install_and_activate() used to skip re-running ACL-ZUSE-BOOT whenever the cert was already installed, which made a logout permanent for the rest of the boot; the outer re-attach gate now checks zuse_session (clears on logout) instead of zuse_cert_installed (a deliberate permanent one-way ratchet, left untouched). Verified 3-arch boot to ok> (amd64/aarch64/riscv64, each in the foreground) after both steps; logs and DoE CSVs from this session's verification runs included per this repo's own audit-artifact convention.

Retire emergency CLI: Zuse goes thumbdrive-resident, ACL.4th activated
Three tightly-coupled changes, verified together per Captain Bob's own "getting rid of the emergency cli" direction: 1. Zuse's identity is thumbdrive-resident, never system-resident. New zuse_genesis_marker_t (magic/version/zuse_pubkey[32]/crc) replaces zuse_cert_devblock_t's slot in the top-of-device fence -- the system now remembers only that a root identity exists and its pubkey, never a seed. zuse_cert_devblock_t is kept in the repo, marked superseded, no longer written by any code path. capsule_mint_identity() grows a genesis mode (issuer_vm=NULL): no cert is built or written (Zuse isn't verified against a separate signer -- she's recognized by pubkey match against the marker) and two new optional out-params (out_pubkey/out_seed) let the caller install the cert immediately after a genesis mint. New capsule_zuse_boot_try_attach() (capsule_zuse_boot.c), called from sk_repl_idle() on every fresh USB attach (the only point in the boot lifecycle a thumbdrive can actually be detected -- attach polling doesn't exist yet at kernel_main.c's old one-shot mint point, which is why that whole block is gone): no marker + blank drive -> genesis-mint; marker present + matching drive -> read its own user_identity_seed_t, install the cert. Either way, re-runs ACL-ZUSE-BOOT (zuse.4th) so zuse_session activates exactly like it always has for a same-boot cert install -- ACL-PIN only blocks redefinition, not re-execution, so no new C-side auth logic needed. 2. ACL.4th activated (capsules/init.4th) -- inactive all session until now. Found and fixed a real bug this immediately surfaced: zuse.4th's ACL-ZUSE-BOOT tried `['] ACL-ZUSE-BOOT ACL-PIN` from inside its own still-compiling definition -- the word isn't findable yet at that point, so the whole definition silently failed to compile every previous boot this session (dormant, since ACL.4th never loaded). Fixed: pin after the definition closes, not from within it -- it only needs to happen once anyway, and pinning doesn't block the re-invocation genesis/attach needs. 3. The unauthenticated emergency-CLI ACL bypass is retired (repl.c): `emergency_console = is_hera ? (zuse_session ? 0 : 1) : 0` deleted from both sk_repl_step and sk_repl_run. Every word run from Hera's own bare prompt now goes through ordinary ACL enforcement; emergency_console is driven only by the genuine C-level fault handler again. Added ZUSE-SESSION? (starforth_words.c), a read-only diagnostic matching ZUSE-PUBKEY@'s own precedent, to verify the whole chain directly rather than by inference. Verified end-to-end live in QEMU: fresh boot, no thumbdrive -> ZUSE-SESSION? reads 0. Attach a genuinely blank drive via QMP -> genesis mint fires automatically (no typing) -> ZUSE-SESSION? reads -1 (true). Hermes/Artemis both birth clean on all three architectures with ACL now actually enforced for the first time all session -- no denials, no UNKNOWN WORD beyond the deliberate POST self-test cases.
