--manifest mode's file scan is a completely separate code path from build mode (only ever walks .4th files, never the embedded PKI cert or font capsule) -- extended it to accept the same optional --sign-key <path> prefix build mode already has, factoring the key-loading code into a shared load_sign_key(), so the manifest can report real per-capsule signing status without touching or requiring a rebuild of capsule_generated.c. New "Signed" column on the capsule summary table: yes/no when --sign-key was given, n/a (with an explanatory footnote) when it wasn't -- never a bare blank that could be misread as "unsigned". Makefile.starkernel's manifest-generation call site now passes the same SIGN_KEY_ARGS the real build uses, so capsules/BLOCK_MAP.md reflects this machine's actual signed state by default. Verified: clean compile, BLOCK_MAP.md correctly shows "yes" for all 31 tracked capsules on a real signed build; a quick amd64 boot (no kernel code touched, host tooling only) confirmed no regression. This closes every open Milestone 6 item except magic-number content-type detection (shared with Milestone 4, not started) and the hard-refuse flip (deliberately deferred). Documented in FABRIC-3.md.

tools/
Build-time and integration-test utilities for the StarForth / LithosAnanke toolchain.
Contents
| File | Purpose |
|---|---|
mkcapsule.c |
Assembles .4th capsule files into capsule_generated.c baked into the kernel image. Invoked automatically by Makefile.starkernel. |
mkcapsule |
Compiled host binary (rebuilt on demand). |
ttftest.c |
Host TTF glyph-rendering test — font rasterization unit tests, no QEMU needed. |
pe_reloc_gen.py |
Generates PE32+ relocation tables for the UEFI loader. |
svg_to_png.py |
Renders every tracked .svg in the repo to a same-named .png via headless Chromium; leaves the source .svg untouched, run manually. |
hermes_smoke.sh |
Hermes v1 hosted smoke test — swaps in the Hermes init capsule and prints values for manual inspection. |
hermes_channel_smoke.sh |
Exercises the full Hermes channel-negotiation lifecycle (CH-REQUEST → CH-ACCEPT → CH-CLOSE → reap) per the protocol in .claude/HERMES.md. |
hermes_tripod_smoke.sh |
Full Tripod integration test — exercises all 6 inter-VM message paths using the DEFER VM-EXEC/IS VM-EXEC dispatcher shim from init.4th. |
kconfig/ |
Vendored Linux kernel Kconfig tooling (conf/mconf/qconf), GPL-2.0. See tools/kconfig/README.md. |
mkcapsule
# Invoked automatically by the kernel build:
make -f Makefile.starkernel ARCH=amd64 clean qemu
# Manual invocation (for inspection):
./tools/mkcapsule capsules/ build/amd64/kernel/capsule_generated.c
Scans capsules/ for .4th files, computes XXHash64 per capsule, assigns
type (m) to init.4th and (p) to everything else.
