The runtests toplevel guard loads the bootsupport punk::lib snapshot -
this re-vendor puts the parity-fixed compat family there (the
testinterp guard already resolved the dev module via prefer-latest).

Batched punkcheck-managed build outputs from 'make.tcl modules' +
'make.tcl bootsupport' after the G-094 landing: punkcheck 0.4.0 -> 0.5.0
and punk::mix::cli 0.5.0 -> 0.5.1 snapshots (per the G-094 prompt
re-vendor note - make.tcl now runs the unified lifecycle), plus
opportunistic catch-up of stale snapshots (libunknown 0.2.0 -> 0.2.1,
punk::config / punk::lib / punk::repl content syncs from current built
modules).
Verification under the new punkcheck: 'make.tcl modules' x2 and a full
'make.tcl project' complete exit 0 with skip/copy decisions unchanged
against pre-refactor .punkcheck state - copied: 0 on every batch phase,
kit installs skip 'no change detected' (the sole punk905 rebuild traces
to the newly promoted tclsh905 runtime, a genuinely changed source).

make.tcl bootsupport batched build-output refresh (punkcheck-managed): fauxlink
0.1.1 -> 0.1.2, plus catch-up of source versions that had moved since the last
refresh - punk::ansi 0.1.3, punk::args 0.12.3, punk::lib 0.5.0, punk::ns 0.8.0,
punk::repl 0.5.2, tomlish 1.1.10 -> 1.1.12, test/tomlish-1.1.5 modpod, and this
morning's G-087 hygiene bumps (cap handlers templates 0.1.1, punk::mix::base
0.1.1, commandset layout/module/scriptwrap 0.1.1, commandset project 0.2.2,
punk::mix templates 0.1.4). Superseded versions pruned; the same refresh is
mirrored into the custom/_project layout bootsupport copies by the build.
templates-0.1.3.tm prune initially failed with a transient file lock and was
removed manually after verification.

New check pair in punk::lib::check, in the established style (G-076
console_deadspin exemplar: pure facts-in/verdict-out classifier
tclbug_nestedswitch_tracelines_signature + has_tclbug_* proc returning the
standard buginfo dict {bug bugref description level}, auto-surfaced through
the help tcl warning report via the info procs enumeration).
Unlike the version-gated checks, this one is a LIVE behavioural probe (safe
and cheap - no console interaction): a dynamically-defined proc with a
nested 4-word switch is enterstep-traced for inner arm 1 (affected split-
list index 1 - reports line 3) and the default arm (index 5, beyond the
command word count - reports line 2 correctly), matched against the
characterized wrong/right signature. Detection therefore flips
automatically on a Tcl runtime containing the upstream fix - no fixed_in
version variable needed. Probe layout note: a 2-arm probe would put the
default body at affected index 3 and hide the signature (both arms
mismark) - the middle arm exists to push default to safe index 5 (this
initially bit the probe itself, confirming the law once more).
Followup-when-fixed documented in the proc: re-verify with
scriptlib/developer/tcl_switch_traceline_repro.tcl, flip the
ns/cmdtrace.test GAP pins and fixed-canary, update the punk::ns::cmdtrace
argdoc caveat, note the fixed-in version. New canary test
cmdtrace_upstream_bug_check_canary asserts the check still reports the bug
- on a fixed Tcl it fails first and points at that workflow.
Verified: punk/ns 69/69 and punk/lib 37/37 under Tcl 9.0.3; cmdtrace.test
6/6 under 8.7; all has_tclbug_*/has_libbug_* procs exercised help-tcl style
without error; probe self-cleans (no temp proc/var residue).
punk::lib buildversion 0.4.3 -> 0.5.0 (new API procs = minor); project
0.12.32 + CHANGELOG; tests AGENTS.md index updated.

New goal G-076 (active): adopt the upstream tcl9 dead-console fix (ticket
f10d91c2d3, root-caused in G-039) via a single version gate shared by the
'help tcl' warning and the repl watchdog arming.
- punk::lib 0.4.3: has_tclbug_console_deadspin + pure classifier
tclbug_console_deadspin_applies, gate variable
check::tclbug_console_deadspin_fixed_in (empty = all Tcl 9 windows
runtimes affected). Buginfo dicts gain a mitigated/mitigation axis
orthogonal to level; the deadspin check reports mitigated when
punk::repl >= 0.5.0 is available to the runtime.
- punk::repl 0.5.1: repl::start arms the dead-console watchdog only when
the check reports the runtime affected - recording a verified fixed
release once flips both consumers.
- punk 0.2.6: 'help tcl' renders mitigated warnings subdued (term-grey)
with a "(mitigated)" annotation and the mitigation text; severity
classification unchanged.
- checkbugs.test: classifier truth table, live-check consistency, and
mitigated-axis validation in the generic every-check sweep.
The fixed_in flip is deliberately deferred until a released Tcl passes
the G-039 kill-procedure re-verification (watchdog disabled, clean
script-visible eof exit) - recorded as the goal's remaining acceptance
item.

Space-form docid prefix parity: cmd_traverse's space-delimited child
docid jump, on an exact-word miss, now resolves the word against the
current level's choices-bearing first leader via
punk::args::choiceword_match (the shared G-040 resolver - -choiceprefix,
-nocase, -choicealiases, denylist, reservelist honoured) and retries
with the canonical word. 'i string is tr' resolves to the
"::tcl::string::is true" documentation exactly when 'string is tr 1'
executes; 'string is bool' -> boolean; ambiguous ('d'), unknown ('zz')
and denied words stay at the parent exactly when parse rejects them.
resolvedargs records the canonical, mirroring parse normalization. No
second matching rule exists.
Truthful cmdtype: cmdinfo classifies cmdwhich-notfound + non-empty docid
as 'doconly' (was 'notfound') - documentation-only levels below real
commands (per-class ids like "::tcl::string::is true", documented TclOO
method docids; the method case adopts doconly per the recorded design
decision, refinable by G-052). Consumers audited: cmdhelp/synopsis/eg
are docid-driven, cmdtrace tests only for 'proc', punk::help topic
fallback uses cmdwhich; punk::lib script analysis updated in step
(doconly accepted alongside notfound, bucketing unchanged).
Tests: the four G-051 GAP pins flipped and renamed
(cmdhelp_pseudo_command_cmdtype_doconly,
cmdhelp_spaceform_docid_prefix_honoured + ambiguous/unknown guard,
cmdhelp_string_is_true_pseudo_doconly,
cmdhelp_string_is_prefix_honoured). punk::ns 53/53 (cmdflow + non-GAP
cmdhelp unchanged), punk::args 193 pass / 1 pre-existing skip,
punk::lib 35/35; full source-tree suite result in the detail file.
Live verification (punk902z src): 'i string is tr' renders
byte-identical to 'i string is true' except the failure banner echoing
the typed words.
Flip edits: G-051 index entry to GOALS-archive.md (achieved 2026-07-13),
detail Status flipped with acceptance review and verification record,
reference sweep updates G-052 Notes. Detail-file move to goals/archive/
follows as a pure rename; goals_lint transiently unclean between the two
commits.

- punk_main.tcl captures the runtime static baseline at kit boot: empty-filename [info loaded] prefixes probe-loaded in a throwaway interp (configurable denylist tk*/vfs/mk4tcl/vlerq/tdbc* for side-effecting/composite inits), recording only packages a load actually PROVIDES (diff on provides, not package names - probe loads can trigger index scans) into ::punkboot::static_packages/static_prefixes; the boot interp is seeded with ifneeded {load {} <prefix>} mappings
- punk::lib interp_sync_package_paths/snapshot_package_paths propagate the baseline and seed fabricated interps/threads; punk::repl codethread init (new %staticprefixes%/%staticpackages% scriptmap) and shellthread worker init do the same - the repl code interp on a static runtime resolves Thread again (punk91 = tclsfe-x64 + punk9win.vfs failed with "can't find package Thread"; the appended vfs replaces the stub's //zipfs:/app mount taking its static pkgIndex files with it, and the tclsfe PostInit hook seeds per-interp auto_path only)
- punk::packagepreference static-vs-bundled policy: requiring a baseline package ensures the static mapping and triggers the package unknown scan BEFORE resolution so bundled copies register and the highest version wins (newer bundled reachable, static not masked by older bundled); static registrations excluded from the loaded-shared-object same-version pinning
- composite statics defer correctly: static twapi provides nothing under the probe (script layer lived in the replaced stub zip) so the bundled complete twapi is the resolution; punk91 vfs/vfs::zip warning re-diagnosed as kit content (tclsfe bundles no tclvfs) - recorded in the goal detail, not a seeding defect
- tests: staticseed.test (4) + staticpolicy.test (4) un-gated simulated-baseline units (green 9.0.3 + 8.7); staticruntime.test (4) kit integration behind the capability-probed statickitavailable constraint (probes ::punkboot baseline incl Thread; env PUNK_STATICKIT_TEST_EXE override, default bin/punk91.exe) - 4/4 against the rebuilt punk91; punk902z/full shell tree/full source-tree suite baselines unchanged (exec-14.3 only)
- verification runtime tclsfe-x64.exe pinned in the punkbin artifact repo (separate repo, commit b2dbbe6) with sha1sums + new AGENTS.md scaffolding
- punkshell 0.6.0: CHANGELOG entry; AGENTS updates (src/vfs capture contract, tests indexes incl new punk/lib + punk/packagepreference entries, shell staticruntime contract)

TIP 746 (Tcl 9.1) removed lseq's expr-operand behaviour. punk::lib::range
(lseq branch) now normalizes int[+-]int offsets via offset_expr so callers
like `range 0 [llength $list]-1` keep working (punk::ansi::grepstr broke
under 9.1b0, taking example-block highlighting and the punk::args
examples.test with it). The lseq branch is also aligned with the tcl8
fallback contract: default 'by' now infers direction (descending ranges
previously returned empty under tcl9) and 'by 0' returns empty (Tcl 9.1
lseq changed by-0 to return one element).
Direct lseq expression operands expr-wrapped: punk::lib lzipn_tcl9b/c,
cols, cols2; punk::args zero_based_posns.
check::has_tclbug_safeinterp_compile falls back to interp invokehidden
tcl:unsupported:disassemble - Tcl 9.1 safe interps hide tcl::unsupported::*.
New modules/punk/lib range.test pins the range contract on 9.0 and 9.1;
core tests AGENTS.md documents native-tclsh vs punk-exe exec.test baselines.

Completes G-036's remaining acceptance item - version-based detection of the
vulnerable combination (tcludp < 1.0.13 on Tcl 9 Windows: the per-thread exit
handler closes the process-global sockListLock/waitForSock events, silently
freezing every other udp-using thread's event loop after any udp-loaded thread
exits; root-caused and fixed-by-upgrade in 0.4.3).
- punk::lib 0.3.0: has_libbug_udp_threadexit gathers live facts (loaded udp
version, else best available registered version discovered without loading
the binary via an unsatisfiable package require triggering the index scan)
and delegates the verdict to the pure classifier
libbug_udp_threadexit_applies (facts in, verdict out - testable). has_libbug_*
is the new check family for bundled/vendored library bugs; buginfo dicts may
carry a full 'url' reference key for non tcl-core trackers.
- punk 0.2.1: 'help tcl' scans has_libbug_* alongside has_tclbug_*, renders the
url key when present, and no longer errors on a triggered check carrying a
reference without a description (latent unset-indent fix).
- new checkbugs.test: classifier combination matrix, live-check dict shape and
classifier consistency, and a buginfo-contract test across all existing
check procs.
- verified: current kit (udp 1.0.13) reports bug=0 with no warning; a simulated
triggered has_libbug_* check renders description + url in the help tcl
warning block. Suites: punk/lib 21 pass, punk/ns 26 pass.
- G-036 flipped to achieved 2026-07-08 (index acceptance REMAINING annotated
DONE; detail file gains the Detection section). Open non-gating decisions
recorded in the detail file: punk8win (8.6) kit udp 1.0.12 swap; optional
upstream tickets for residual tcludp trunk weaknesses.

Per-console facts are now visible to every thread of a punk session: the
default console {stdin stdout} keeps its legacy namespace variables as
authoritative local storage, with write traces mirroring every write
(including direct variable writes) into tsv punk_console_facts; non-default
consoles store facts only in tsv with owner-qualified keys (non-std channel
names are thread-local and would otherwise alias). console_fact_set from a
non-owner thread forwards to the owning thread (vt52-alias transport) and
always writes the tsv mirror itself (covers unreachable or older-version
owners). New console_fact_clear for tests/maintenance.
New console ownership registry (console_owner_register/get/forget, tsv
punk_console_owners keyed by canonical {in out} pair): ownership is captured
when an opunk::console instance is anchored - via the new pluggable
::opunk::console::lifecycle_callback (opunk::console 0.4.0, base class
unchanged) wired by ensure_object_integration - and by default_console.
Consult-time liveness validation clears entries for exited threads. For
{stdin stdout} first registration wins and only the owner's forget releases
the entry, so a thread anchoring a local view cannot steal ownership.
dec_has_mode/ansi_has_mode caches moved to tsv punk_console_modecache
(single-key atomic entries shared process-wide).
Infrastructure tsv arrays are now punk_-prefixed to avoid collisions with
application tsv usage in subshells: console -> punk_console (is_raw), with
call-site patches in punk::repl 0.2.1, punk::lib 0.2.1, punk::basictelnet
0.1.1 (rule recorded in src/modules/AGENTS.md; legacy repl/codethread_*/
zzzload_pkg* arrays left for a coordinated follow-up).
punk::console is now loadable in secondary threads without ::argv0
(powershell consolemode fallback guarded).
Tests: consolefacts gains ownership-registry and cross-thread visibility
coverage (worker-thread punk::console load, trace-mirror, forwarded set with
deadline-polled sync - see comments re runtests child-interp topology);
cleanups use console_fact_clear / tsv instead of poking removed internal
stores. Full suite passes (baseline exec-14.3 only).
G-007 flipped proposed -> active (user-confirmed); remaining acceptance work
is the choke-point brokering slice.

snapshot_package_paths returns a script string reproducing the caller's tcl:™️:list, auto_path, and package prefer for use in thread::create init scripts. With -libunknown 1 it also copies the punk::libunknown epoch and sources+inits libunknown in the target. interp_sync_package_paths now propagates package prefer (was missing) and accepts optional -libunknown 1 flag for epoch copy + libunknown init in the child interp. Both procs have PUNKARGS argdoc documentation. Includes 6 tcltest tests covering basic propagation, version selection with package prefer latest, ordering preservation, snapshot script validity, -libunknown flag, and regression.
