Robert Allan JamesandClaude Sonnet 5 4270cf23f1 docs: fix stale proof-suite claims in FABRIC-2.md; correct docs/CLAUDE.md's Makefile pointer
FABRIC-2.md item 5.2: both lemmas described as deliberately oops-flagged
(ROLL semantics, pipeline pm_wf invariant) were actually resolved
2026-08-13, same day, but FABRIC-2.md was never updated to match --
found during a docs-tree maintainability sweep. Corrected both, and
flagged a real untracked finding the pipeline fix surfaced: the Isabelle
model's accuracy num/den fraction pair doesn't correspond to the real
PipelineGlobalMetrics C struct at all. Also reconciled the theory-count
drift (53/54 mid-sweep numbers vs. the actual current 52, matching
proof/COVERAGE.md; proof/FINDINGS.md's own stale "53" flagged but not
fixed, out of this pass's scope).

docs/CLAUDE.md described a docs/Makefile with docs-formal/docs-working/
docs-index/docs-audit targets that doesn't exist anywhere in the tree.
The real build is docs/formal/Makefile with a completely different
target set (vol1/vol2/vol3/books/standalone/doxygen/clean) -- corrected
to match, and noted docs/INDEX.md has no automation and goes stale
between manual triage passes.

doxygen installed on this machine (was missing entirely, blocking the
API-reference build target).

StarForth / LithosAnanke Documentation

This is the lithosananke branch: the bare-metal StarKernel side of the project (contrast master, which is the hosted-VM-only side). Documentation follows the two-tier model described in docs/CLAUDE.md: formal/ is the polished, citable LaTeX tier; working/ is living design notes and drafts that feed it. Everything else in this directory is branch- or subsystem-specific material that doesn't fit either tier.

Layout

  • formal/ — Three-volume LaTeX documentation set (research volumes, practitioner books, standalone reports) plus the scraps/ fragment library it's assembled from. Audience: patent counsel, SSRN reviewers, licensees, hobbyists with hardware in hand. See formal/CLAUDE.md for authoring conventions.
  • working/ — Living documents: architecture design notes, DoE experiment logs, hardware/platform notes, draft specs, academic-paper source material, and an archive of superseded docs. Source material for formal/.
  • 03-architecture/ — Tripod VM architecture constraints (Hera/Hermes/Artemis) and the word-level ACL system design.
  • lithosananke/ — LithosAnanke kernel branch documentation: milestone roadmap, system architecture, HAL reference, kernel command-line argument design, and the amd64 APIC-timer ISR postmortem.
  • birthing/ — VM birthing plan and status for the Hera-spawns- Hermes/Artemis constellation, plus three-architecture QEMU acceptance logs.
  • patent/ — Provisional patent application source. Legal hold — ask Bob before touching anything in this directory.
  • api/ — Generated Doxygen tag file and warnings log (gitignored; not part of the tracked doc tree).
  • pptx/ — Elevator-pitch and deep-dive slide decks for different audiences (technical, non-technical, academic, PhD-level).

Current Active Work

  • LithosAnanke M7/M7.1 — VM parity validation and init capsule architecture. See lithosananke/README.md and lithosananke/M7.1.md.
  • Word-level ACL system — Phase 6 complete on master; Phase 7 (LithosAnanke parity) is the next step. See 03-architecture/word-acl/README.md.
  • Tripod VMs — Hera (governor), Hermes (messenger), Artemis (memory/block storage). See 03-architecture/tripod/README.md and birthing/.

Contributing

  • Place new material in working/ first; promote to formal/ only when it's ready to be cited (see formal/CLAUDE.md for promotion criteria).
  • Never touch patent/, formal/patent/, formal/scraps/legal/, or working/legal/ without Bob's explicit instruction.
  • Add a README.md to any new category-level subdirectory, following the format used throughout this tree: orientation paragraph + bullet list of real files with one-line descriptions.
