\section{Session Log: StarForth Kernel Transformation Plan}

This document is a whimsical-named session log containing a detailed
technical plan for transforming StarForth from a hosted FORTH-79 VM into
a UEFI-bootable microkernel. The plan predates LithosAnanke and documents
the architectural thinking that preceded it. The current LithosAnanke
implementation (v1.0.8, milestone M7) supersedes this plan. The session
log is preserved as a historical design record.

Key architectural decisions recorded in this log that survived into
LithosAnanke include: the StarForth VM as ring-0 microkernel (no separate
kernel layer), FORTH words as kernel service primitives, UEFI PE32+
executable format, ExitBootServices transition sequence, and the
six-phase milestone structure (UEFI boot, kernel primitives, FORTH
integration, platform I/O, multi-architecture, advanced features).

The capsule system, LithosAnanke component architecture (Hera, Hermes,
Artemis), and the current three-architecture build (amd64, aarch64,
riscv64) all trace to the design intent recorded here.

%% TODO(bob): if the formal dev-guide volume carries a LithosAnanke
%% architecture chapter, this session log can supply footnotes for
%% design rationale decisions (e.g., pure FORTH userspace, no ELF loader).
