Acceptance verified in full on 2026-07-29 (evidence in the detail file's
Progress section): windows-host bakes embed the default punkshell.ico
into all 10 buildable win32 kits across zip (x64 + ix86), sdx-metakit
and stamped-concat assembly, verified by twapi resource inspection
byte-matching the source ico; override round-trip proven and reverted;
boots for zip, metakit and concat images from scratch copies; linux
cross-target kit gets its sidecar with NOT APPLICABLE; the two
incapable-host conditions produce their distinct notices in REAL bakes
(mingw tclsh86: twapi not loadable; WSL linux cross-bake: cross-host
with the G-128 remedy named - and the cross-baked kit boots on windows,
the recorded known shortcoming live); idempotence converges; runtime
store originals untouched; vendored-twapi no-toolchain arm proven under
tclsh9.0.5-punk.
Index entry moves to GOALS-archive.md (ID position); the detail-file
move to goals/archive/ follows as its own pure-rename commit. Reference
sweep: G-023, G-028, G-127 and G-128 notes gain achieved/archive markers
plus what each consumes from the delivered mechanism (G-128: the seam
now exists - kit_icon_process entry point, sidecar record, cross-host
notice naming it as remedy; G-028: the stub-first ordering concentrates
the locked-target exposure at deploy, punk9_beta observed). AGENTS.md
owning-doc pointers land alongside: src/vfs (override convention),
src/runtime (default-icon role + derivation sidecar), src/assets/logo
(propagation honesty: G-057 consumes the src/runtime copy - syncing the
four build-consumed copies after artwork changes stays deliberate, with
assetorigin stale-detection as the drift signal), and an ARCHITECTURE.md
build-section bullet (architecture_lint clean).

Non-PE targets skip as not applicable; incapable hosts (no twapi / non-windows build host) skip with distinct notices; the sidecar is written in every case.

Suite child shells scrub `TCL<major>_<minor>_TM_PATH` as well as TCLLIBPATH/TCL_LIBRARY/TK_LIBRARY - without it a census measures the machine's module trees.

### G-057 [achieved 2026-07-29] Kit builds carry a configurable icon: text sidecar for every target, embedded PE resources for windows targets → detail: goals/archive/G-057-kit-icon-embedding.md
Scope: src/make.tcl (kit/zipkit wrap steps); src/runtime/punkshell.ico (project default, existing); src/vfs/*.vfs (override placement convention); src/runtime/mapvfs.config (only if an explicit config element is the chosen override mechanism); TEMP_REFERENCE/tcl-sfe (read-only reference); helper proc location decided in the work (make.tcl inline vs punk::mix lib); kit icon sidecar record (emission points recorded in the work)
Acceptance: a `make.tcl bake` on a windows host producing a win32-target kit produces kit executables whose embedded icon resources are the project default punkshell.ico, and a kit whose .vfs supplies an override icon gets that icon instead (verified by resource inspection, e.g twapi::extract_resources, not just Explorer eyeballing); the icon-replaced executables still boot to a working punk shell reading their vfs payload for the kit types we build (kit, zip, zipcat per mapvfs.config); runtimes under src/runtime are never modified - replacement applies to the built copies only; a target with no PE resources (linux, freebsd, macosx) skips embedding as NOT APPLICABLE rather than as degradation and still gets its sidecar, while a win32 target on a host that cannot perform the update (twapi unavailable, or a non-windows host cross-baking a windows kit) skips embedding with a DISTINCT notice naming which condition applied, still writes the sidecar, and the build otherwise completes unchanged - the cross-host case is recorded here as a known shortcoming with its remedy; the sidecar is produced for every kit on every target, carries the same icon data the PE embedding uses (source .ico identity and provenance) in a documented plain-text form, is byte-stable across rebuilds at unchanged input, and is defined so the parked RT_VERSION follow-on extends the same file rather than adding a second one; the embedding implementation sits behind a single internal entry point with the mechanism selected inside it, so a later portable replacement is a substitution rather than a rewrite; the twapi mechanism remains available INDEFINITELY as the no-toolchain windows path - the seam SELECTS between mechanisms rather than replacing one with the other - and a fresh checkout that fetches a runtime and bakes produces iconed kits with no build toolchain installed; rebuilds are idempotent (re-wrapping an already-iconed build copy converges, no resource accumulation); the override convention (filename/location in the kit's custom .vfs folder vs a mapvfs.config element) and the stub-vs-split ordering decision are recorded in the detail file with the tcl-sfe attribution - the override is SHARED across a kit definition's targets and carries no target dimension (decided 2026-07-26): it is used where embedding applies and ignored elsewhere.
Acceptance: a punk91-style kit (tclsfe-x64 + punk9win.vfs, no thread dll in the vfs) boots to a working repl with no "can't find package Thread" - punk::console loads in the code interp, and package require Thread succeeds there and in a punkshell-created worker thread, resolving to the static version; in the same kit, twapi resolves per the documented policy (no repeat of the observed static-Twapi-masked-by-older-vfs-twapi-5.0.2 double load; a genuinely newer bundled copy remains reachable by that policy); dll-based kits (punk902z) boot and pass their existing shell test baseline unchanged, as does a plain tclsh dev launch; the seeding mechanism is generic - driven by the captured baseline, no runtime-specific package naming - and the boot-time static baseline is introspectable at the repl; the seeding/preference logic is covered by un-gated unit tests against simulated baselines (runnable under plain tclsh), while kit-boot integration tests are gated behind a capability-probed tcltest constraint (a built kit whose baseline shows static entries including Thread) that skips cleanly when no such kit is present; the runtimes used for verification (tclsfe-x64.exe at minimum) are added to the punkbin artifact repository under win32-x86_64 with sha1sums.txt updated, so the constraint is satisfiable on other machines via the existing runtime-retrieval path; the punk91 code-interp vfs/vfs::zip load failure is re-diagnosed after the fix and either resolved or recorded as a distinct issue/candidate goal.

Goal: kit/zipkit builds record a build-time icon choice for every target - defaulting to the project icon src/runtime/punkshell.ico and overridable per kit by its .vfs folder - in a text sidecar that ships with the kit whatever its target, and embed it as PE icon resources when the target has them and the build host can write them - by replacing the icon resources in the built executable using the twapi-based mechanism demonstrated in tcl-sfe (TEMP_REFERENCE/tcl-sfe, by twapi author and Tcl core member Ashok P. Nadkarni): RT_ICON/RT_GROUP_ICON replacement via twapi resource-update APIs, applied so the appended vfs payload stays intact (icon the stub before appending, or sfe-style split/update/reattach), behind a single mechanism seam so the embedding implementation can be replaced without touching its callers.

Interim line format - the schema's eventual home is the G-024 toml conversion. Element positions are fixed, so declaring smoke-requires means also spelling out the target platform.
- **Target platform (4th element, G-122).** A kit config entry may name the canonical punkshell platform its runtime is for (`help platforms` lists the names). It decides which `bin/runtime/<platform>/` tier the runtime is read from (macosx-* collapsing to the universal `macosx` folder), whether the runtime file and the built kit carry `.exe`, and whether the pre-deploy process sweep applies. It is a property of the RUNTIME: entries on one runtime line may repeat it but must not disagree (a conflict, or a name that is not an `<os>-<cpu>` platform-dir name, is a fatal config error). Omitted means the build host's default target - which for an msys2/cygwin-runtime tclsh is `win32-x86_64`, not that host's own canon. The live example is the `tclkit-902-Linux64-intel-dyn` entry (target `linux-x86_64`, suffixless `punkshell902` artifact). The schema's eventual home is the G-024 toml conversion; consumers read the parsed model (`::punkboot::lib::mapvfs_*`), never the file format.

- `punkshell.ico` here is the project-DEFAULT kit icon: the bake icon step (G-057) records it in every kit's `<kitname>.resources.toml` sidecar and embeds it into win32-target kits (per-kit override + format + skip semantics: bin/AGENTS.md). It is a derived copy of `src/assets/logo/punk-mark.ico` - its `.assetorigin.toml` sidecar records the derivation; regenerate via the logo pipeline, never edit the `.ico` here.

- `_config/punk_main.tcl` captures the runtime's static/builtin packages at boot (G-058): empty-filename `info loaded` prefixes are probe-loaded in a throwaway interp (denylist `::punkboot::static_probe_denylist`, default `tk* vfs mk4tcl vlerq tdbc*` - side-effecting or composite inits) and each package a probe-load actually PROVIDES is recorded in `::punkboot::static_packages` {pkgname {version <v> prefix <p>}} with `::punkboot::static_prefixes` alongside. The boot interp and every punkshell-fabricated interp/thread (punk::lib::interp_sync_package_paths / snapshot_package_paths, repl codethread, shellthread workers) seed `package ifneeded <name> <ver> {load {} <prefix>}` from it, and punk::packagepreference resolves static-vs-bundled version-aware. Composite statics whose script layer lived in the runtime's own (replaced) zipfs provide nothing under the probe and are correctly left to bundled copies.
