Disabled capsules/artemis/init.4th block 4170's ART-STRESS-CAMPAIGN -- its
own comment already said to revert to disabled once the K-invariant/
heartbeat verification run (item 4.6, closed earlier this session) was
done. This was the actual ~25-30 minute wall blocking interactive REPL
access, unrelated to any DoE mechanism.
Verified capsules/turtle.4th and capsules/sdk.4th live in a gtk-display
QEMU session: a red hexagon (6 100 POLYGON) and a green self-intersecting
star (100 STAR) both render with correct geometry and color. Screenshot in
evidence/amd64/.
Two real obstacles found and worked around along the way: CS's full-
framebuffer PLOT loop is far slower under TCG than previously documented
(closer to 20+ minutes than "slow"), and the kernel's heartbeat CSV logging
draws to the same console surface PLOT writes pixels to, overwriting
drawings within a fraction of a second unless silenced first with the
existing HB-OFF word. Both HOWTOs updated to record this.
Re-verified full three-arch acceptance boot (POST, DoE, parity) with the
ART-STRESS-CAMPAIGN change: 1012/0/0 and matching dict_hash on all three,
identical to the pre-change baseline.

Artemis's 30-rep surface stress campaign was failing 100% of trials on all
three architectures: stadium_grant_quota() ran after IDENTITY exec in
capsule_birth.c, but Artemis's init.4th auto-runs the stress campaign as
part of that same IDENTITY exec, so every STADIUM-ADMIT call during it hit
a nonexistent quota slot and refused unconditionally. Moved the grant call
before IDENTITY exec. Verified 30/30 reps PASS on amd64, aarch64, and
riscv64 post-fix (was 30/30 FAIL on all three pre-fix).
Also fixed an independent, real bug found during the same acceptance pass:
aarch64's arch_cold_reset() issued PSCI SYSTEM_RESET using the SMC64
calling convention (0xC4000009), which is not a valid PSCI function ID --
SYSTEM_RESET has no SMC64 variant. Corrected to the SMC32 encoding
(0x84000009). This did not resolve the separate aarch64 BYE cold-restart
exception also found in this pass (root cause not yet found, tested and
refuted an interrupt-race hypothesis, documented in FABRIC-2.md Section I
for follow-up) but is a genuine spec fix worth keeping regardless.
Full writeup, evidence, and the still-open aarch64 crash investigation in
FABRIC-2.md Sections H and I.

The 30-replicate Artemis surface-stress campaign ran across all three
architectures: 30 reps x 50 trials x 3 arches = 4500 trials, zero failures.
The block_words.c stale-pointer cache-aliasing fix holds at scale.
Adds ART-STRESS-CAMPAIGN (block 4174) plus ART-STRESS-REP rep-tagging in
the CSV header/summary emitters, so a multi-replicate run is distinguishable
in the serial log. Campaign auto-invoke is left enabled in block 4170 for
now; Makefile.starkernel's QEMU boot deadlines stay at 12h to accommodate
long-running experiments.
Adds docs/working/architecture/ARTEMIS-COMPUDYNAMICS-IMPLEMENTATION-PLAN-20260802.md,
which documents the real gap this campaign exposed: block heat and message
heat do not decay at all. ART-TICK has zero call sites anywhere in the tree,
and HERMES-TICK has zero C call sites -- every caller is Hera poking it by
hand. BLK-HEAT@/MSG-HEAT@ read a number nothing ages, so blocks never reap
by cooling and message TTL never expires on its own.
The plan mirrors word-level physics as the reference model: lazy decay at
each access point against vm->heartbeat.tick_count, plus a bounded
background sweep with a resumable cursor (the existing answer to "sweeping
22,998 blocks per tick is too expensive"). Phase 1 Artemis, Phase 2 Hermes,
Phase 3 K participation deferred behind the Logical BAM.
The plan's preamble also records a wrong turn taken while investigating:
chasing VM-fleet heat instead of block heat, and building synthetic
Hera-driven VM-EXEC calls to force a physics reading -- which TRIPOD.md
prohibits outright. That work was reverted; the record is kept so it isn't
repeated.
Status: plan approved in shape, NOT final and NOT started. Six open
questions need answers and further design discussion is pending.

The generic block subsystem (blk_format_or_load_disk) auto-reformatted
any disk lacking its own low-level 'STFR' header at attach time, before
Artemis's Forth-level BLANK/LithosAnanke/Unrecognized classification
ever ran -- so ART-HALT-UNRECOG's "Disk preserved" message was false.
Split detection from commit: an unrecognized/blank disk is now left
PROVISIONAL (geometry computed in memory only, all writes refused)
until explicitly confirmed via the new blk_subsys_confirm_format() /
BLK-CONFIRM-FORMAT primitive. Artemis calls it from ART-FORMAT and
ART-RESUME, never from ART-HALT-UNRECOG.
Verified on amd64/aarch64/riscv64: parity intact (identical dict_hash),
normal recognized-disk resume + persist-read unaffected, and a
regenerated disk/artemis-unrecognized-test.img (the old copy had itself
been silently corrupted by this exact bug) now stays byte-for-byte
identical across a halted boot on amd64 and riscv64.
