punk::cap::handlers::templates 0.3.0: module-pathtype layout refs resolve
against the providing module's own templates/project_layouts store (sibling of
its layout_refs folder) instead of the never-existing <modulebase>/src tree -
module-carried thin layouts become usable.
punk::mix::templates 0.2.0: ships the thin punk.project layout payload inside
the modpod (payload synced from src/project_layouts by make.tcl - see below);
shellproject_multivendor declaration fixed decktemplates -> src/decktemplates
(shell-project layouts/templates were invisible when cwd was outside any
project).
punk::mix::commandset::project 0.3.0: project.new injects bootsupport into the
generated project at generation time via new lib::bootsupport_inject - manifest
(include_modules.config) driven module resolution from the generating shell's
project bootsupport tree, or a standalone kit's tcl:™️:list paths (999999.*
dev versions never injected; latest-version non-glob semantics matching
make.tcl bootsupport; adjacent non-.tm support files such as struct sets_*.tcl
and textutil .tex data carried along; bootsupport lib* trees copied from a
shell project, notice emitted for manifest-less standalone kits); punkcheck-
recorded with plain-copy degradation. -layout now prefix-matches the live
layout set instead of the package-load-time snapshot.
punkcheck 0.4.0: start_installer_event no longer writes literal '$eventid'/
'$rel_source'/'$rel_target'/'$config' into event headers (braced-literal
expansion bug, latent since inception - collided as duplicate ids when install
and installtrack writers shared one db); sources with no common root vs the
punkcheck folder (e.g //zipfs:/ module-mounted layouts) are recorded as
independent absolute paths instead of erroring.
punk::mix::base 0.1.1 -> 0.1.2 (manually versioned rename): cksum_path no
longer hangs forever on vfs-mounted files - tcllib -file digest modes read via
fileevent+vwait and zipfs channels never deliver fileevents (empty
ZipChannelWatchChannel in core); non-native files are slurped and digested in
data mode (new cksum_data_command per algorithm + cksum_crc_data/
cksum_adler32_data helpers; exec-based sha3 errors cleanly for vfs paths).
make.tcl: custom/_project layout bootsupport-sync retired (project layouts
store no snapshots); sync_layouts retargeted to thin vendor layouts (make.tcl,
build.tcl + bootsupport manifest copies; punkcheck db at
src/project_layouts/.punkcheck) plus store->modpod punk.project payload sync
(excludes bin/sdx.kit and src/PROJECT_LAYOUTS_* marker; fossil settings kept
via core-exclude override); bootsupport copy onto a modpod the running
make.tcl has mounted records OK when target content is already identical
(FAILED-record churn fix); workflow text updated (DIAGRAM 1b) and help/argdoc
texts adjusted.
bootsupport include_modules.config: added previously-recordless-but-required
entries cmdline (fileutil dep), struct::set (make.tcl accelerators), textutil,
textutil::expander, textutil::patch - generated projects' make.tcl now boots
under a plain tclsh.
Docs: root/src/bootsupport/punk AGENTS.md updated for the retired sync and
build-managed modpod payload; goal detail G-087 stage-3 progress record;
CHANGELOG 0.16.0 + punkproject.toml bump.

Prints the release-ready command sequence, source -> built-packages ->
bootsupport / kit-vfs / kit-executable folder-flow diagrams, and keyed notes
(magic-version stamping, punkcheck provenance, staleness gate, -confirm
policy, locked-exe deploys, VCS-tracked output targets). The text is embedded
in make.tcl (::punkboot::workflow_text) rather than a data file so it travels
with the make.tcl copies seeded into generated-project layouts; content is
project-generic accordingly. A MAINTENANCE key in the output states the
update contract.
punk::args-documented via the existing constructed-definition machinery
(SUMMARIES/HELPTEXTS/SUBOPTS + informational SUBGROUPS entry) so tabled help,
'help workflow' and the top-level subcommand table all cover it; also
registered in known_commands and the plain punkboot_gethelp fallback, and
exempted from the bootsupport staleness gate alongside check/projectversion.
Verified in normal and PUNKBOOT_PLAIN dispatch; stray arguments raise a
punk::args toomanyarguments usage error; output is pure ASCII, width <= 100.
src/AGENTS.md Work Guidance gains the agent update contract: change the
workflow text in the same change-set as any build data-flow change, keep the
ASCII/width/structure rules, verify with 'make.tcl workflow' (+ one
PUNKBOOT_PLAIN run), and the registration-point checklist for subcommand
changes. Layout make.tcl copies propagate via 'make.tcl bootsupport' - never
hand-synced. punkshell 0.12.42.

Fixes the two user-reported symptoms of '<punkexe> src/make.tcl shell':
Missing prompts: app-punkscript correctly forces ::tcl_interactive 0 for
script execution, and punk::repl is already loaded at kit boot - so the shell
branch's 'package require punk::repl' re-loads nothing and the repl's
load-time interactivity probe (repl line ~44) never re-runs, leaving prompts
suppressed on a real console. The shell branch now recomputes
::tcl_interactive via punk::repl::is_interactive against the actual input
channel before repl::init/start. Piped behaviour unchanged (probe still
reports non-interactive).
Raw-mode 'invalid command name struct::set': the accelerator-reload block
(package forget + rename of sha1/md5/struct::* so reloads can pick up
accelerators from the restored full paths) relied on later package-require
chains to restore the forgotten packages. Under a kit, the consumers
(punk::lib, punk::du, punk::nav::fs, flagfilter) were pre-loaded at kit boot,
their requires never re-fire, and the first repl-thread-side call of a
struct::set-backed punk::lib proc (lunique_unordered's self-redefining first
invocation, reached via flagfilter/nav::fs in interactive/raw paths) hit the
destroyed command. The block now records which of the forgotten packages were
actually loaded and re-requires them immediately. Verified by thread-probe:
the repl-thread interp now shows struct::set 2.2.5 + sha1 2.0.5 restored
identically under tclsh90 and punk91 (previously absent under punk91); the
codethread was always unaffected (it re-requires its own package list).
src/AGENTS.md: new note - punk-exe-hosted make.tcl runs in a pre-loaded
interp, not a virgin one (no-op requires, load-time state like the
tcl_interactive probe, kit-vs-bootsupport module provenance mixing); interp
surgery in make.tcl must restore deliberately and be tested under both tclsh
and a punk exe. Layout make.tcl copies re-synced via the punkcheck channel.

Self-build guard (user-identified gap): when make.tcl is driven by a built punk
executable, the kit whose deployed executable is the running interpreter is now
skipped before any build work, with guidance to rerun under tclsh or a
different kit. Previously the pre-deploy process sweep matched processes by
executable name only and would taskkill the build's own process mid-run with
-k (suicide: remaining kits unbuilt, no recap, dangling punkcheck event);
without -k only the polite kill's refusal on console processes saved the run,
and the deploy delete of the running image would fail with a cryptic message.
The sweep additionally excludes the build's own pid unconditionally, covering
a same-named copy driving the build from a non-deploy path. Informational and
update subcommands were already safe (they exit before the kit machinery);
building other kits from a punk exe remains supported. Verified live:
'punk91 src/make.tcl vfs -confirm 0' skips punk91.exe with the warning and
processes the other kits normally; plain tclsh runs unaffected.
libunknown quietening: 'punkexe src/make.tcl <cmd>' emitted
"punk::libunknown::init already done - unnecessary call? info frame -1: ..."
because punk_main.tcl had already initialised libunknown (renaming ::package)
and make.tcl unconditionally re-sourced the bootsupport copy and called init
again, tripping init's load-bearing rename guard. make.tcl now leaves an
already-active libunknown in place (no re-source - also avoids silently
swapping the running copy for the bootsupport copy when versions diverge);
plain tclsh runs source+init exactly as before. Verified: no diagnostic from
'punk91 src/make.tcl projectversion'.
src/AGENTS.md build guidance updated (punk-exe-driven builds and the self-kit
skip); layout make.tcl copies re-synced via the punkcheck channel.

Fixes the constructed-definition indent leak user review spotted in
'make.tcl help' output (@cmd -help Description first line rendered less
indented than continuations): HELPTEXTS and the inline shell/help/toplevel
help values are now block-form (first value line whitespace-only) with a bare
@normalize in every constructed definition, per G-045's preferred style. The
braced option fragments never leaked (literal block-shaped parts get
file-style normalization) and head-form values are contractually untouched by
@normalize. Also adds a define-time capability probe (punk::args::get_spec on
representative ids inside the guarded block) so a stale punk::args that
accepts the raw text but cannot resolve a mechanism (e.g pre-@normalize
snapshots) degrades to the plain fallback immediately instead of erroring at
first parse.
AGENTS infrastructure for future documentation work: src/modules/AGENTS.md
"Documentation And Comments" gains a "punk::args definition authoring
ergonomics" subsection (G-045 mechanisms: @normalize + block form for
constructed defs, -unindentedfields, -& record continuation, container
quoting rules; plus the G-030 lessons: explicit @form -synopsis for
script-level ids, -optional 0 for pointed choiceviolation errors);
src/AGENTS.md cross-references it and names ::punkboot::argdoc as the
in-tree constructed-def exemplar. Follow-up recorded in the G-030 archive.
Verified: flush Description rendering for toplevel/subcommand/shell/help
usage; dispatch, degraded mode (PUNKBOOT_PLAIN) and usage-error paths
re-verified; layout make.tcl copies re-synced via 'make.tcl bootsupport
-confirm 0' (punkcheck channel); goals_lint unchanged (only the pre-existing
G-078/G-081 index-mirror findings).

All 15 make.tcl subcommands are punk::args-declared ((script)::punkboot +
(script)::punkboot::<sub>, built from single-source summary/help/opt dicts with
shared option fragments and explicit @form -synopsis). Bare make.tcl / -help,
'help ?subcommand?' and '<subcommand> -help' render tabled usage; invalid
flags/subcommands raise punk::args usage errors (exit 1) with unambiguous
prefix resolution; 'shell' is a declared passthrough.
Prompt policy: new -confirm 0|1 (default 1) on every confirmation point
(bootsupport minor-staleness gate, vfscommonupdate REPLACE, kit-type mismatch).
Default prompts only on an interactive terminal and aborts fast with guidance
on non-interactive stdin (::punkboot::lib::stdin_is_interactive; Tcl 8.6 lacks
the -inputmode probe and is assumed interactive). -confirm 0 proceeds
(staleness, REPLACE) or skips the mismatched kit. The piped-y agent workflow is
retired; the old vfscommonupdate decline half-abort (printed done, exit 0) now
exits 1.
Degrade rule: punk::args/punk::ansi/textblock boot requires guarded; definition
load caught with fallback to a self-contained scan (-k/-dirty-abort/-confirm
supported) + plain punkboot_gethelp (availability NOTE factored into
punkboot_availability_note, shared by both paths); rendering degrades
independently of parsing (errorstyle minimal / plain help when the ANSI stack
is unhealthy); PUNKBOOT_PLAIN=1 forces degraded mode. punk::args joins the
bootstrap-tracked _runtime_deps staleness set (parsing contract only - the
rendering stack degrades instead; contract docs updated in
src/bootsupport/AGENTS.md + src/modules/AGENTS.md, workflow docs in
src/AGENTS.md + src/tests/shell/AGENTS.md).
Verified: usage/help/error paths, vfscommonupdate fail-fast and -confirm 0 runs
with closed stdin, staleness flag route live (args 0.5.0->0.12.0 tripped the
gate), degraded-mode help/check/info, full 'project -k -confirm 0' kit build.
Dogfooding finding recorded in the goal file: punk::args 0.12.0 reports generic
overflow where 0.5.0 reported choiceviolation for optional-choice mismatches
(worked around with required leaders; candidate error-selection improvement).

Build/promotion commands (project packages modules libs vfs vfslibs bin
bootsupport vfscommonupdate) now warn when src/ has uncommitted fossil/git
changes - artifacts built from dirty src have no committed provenance.
Warn-only by default; new -dirty-abort flag makes the check aborting.
With '<builtexe> src' available for evaluating uncommitted source directly,
building is the promotion step this treats it as.
- punkboot::utils 0.2.0: vcs_dirty_warnings gains optional scope arg so only
changes under a subpath (src) count; unscoped vendorupdate call unchanged.
- Warnings print with a plain column-0 PROVENANCE-WARNING: token (greppable
in redirected output) + ANSI colour, shared with vendorupdate's dirty
source-project check, and are recapped at end-of-run via a wrapped ::exit
so they survive scrolling chatty build output.
- Interactive terminal runs (stdin -inputmode probe, tcl 8.7+/9) get a 3s
ctrl-c grace countdown before a dirty build proceeds; piped/agent/CI runs
pay no delay.
- 'make.tcl check' reports src provenance status and what the build
commands would do.
- Guarded require: stale/missing punkboot::utils snapshot degrades the check
to a skip notice, but -dirty-abort then aborts rather than silently losing
the requested strictness.

make.tcl vendorupdate now walks up from each vendor source path to the
nearest fossil and/or git root and warns (non-fatal, once per VCS root)
when the checkout is dirty - vendored artifacts built from uncommitted
source have no committed provenance. Silent for unversioned or missing
locations; dual git+fossil roots report each VCS separately. First real
run flagged 8 dirty source projects (the tomlish 1.1.7/1.1.8 incident -
vendored content whose source history ended at 1.1.6 - motivated this,
remedied upstream by tomlish checkin 37b71e82).
Goal G-026 (proposed) carries the enforcement follow-on: abort with
explicit override, warn-only as configured mode, shared coverage of
bootsupport_localupdate, and a recorded decision on the residual
staleness gap. Abort-by-default now would block routine work given the
dirty-project count.

Add a project-level version bumping mechanism for punkshell, tracked in
punkproject.toml, independent of individual module versions.
- root AGENTS.md: new 'Project Versioning' section with change-driven
SEMVER bump policy (patch/minor/major triggers), CHANGELOG.md requirement,
advisory enforcement contract, and independence from module versions.
- src/AGENTS.md: cross-reference to root Project Versioning section so
agents working in src/ discover the rule during their DOX chain walk.
- CHANGELOG.md: new repo-root file with initial 0.2.0 entry; latest
'## [X.Y.Z]' header must match punkproject.toml version.
- src/make.tcl: new 'projectversion' subcommand — read-only, advisory check
that warns on CHANGELOG/punkproject.toml version mismatch and on src/
commits since the last punkproject.toml change. Exempt from bootsupport
staleness abort (same as 'check'). Self-contained Tcl, no punk deps.

Resolves the build-maintenance TODO: built module trees no longer accumulate
superseded intermediate versions, and .punkcheck state stays consistent because
every deletion is recorded through punkcheck's event mechanism.
punkcheck (0.3.0):
- installsource_add_virtual + installevent method targetset_addsource_virtual:
'virtual' named-value SOURCE records (-type virtual -path virtual:<id> -value <v>)
compared by stored value, participating in targetset_source_changes. Needed
because successive module versions are built from the same physical source
files - the recorded virtual module_name/module_version identify which
product of the source fileset a target is, at install and delete time.
punk::mix::cli (0.5.0):
- lib::prune_superseded_target_modules: deletes lower-version .tm siblings only
when records prove the same module line (virtual module_name match, or legacy
fallback: recorded sources share the keep-version's source folder(s) and name
prefix). Unrecorded files are never deleted - reported to stderr instead.
- lib::prune_sourcevanished_targets: mirror-prune of recorded targets whose
recorded source files no longer exist (layout bootsupport copies, vendormodule
copies) - intentional multi-version vendoring is preserved.
- build_modules_from_source_to_base prunes after each module install/skip and
records virtual module identity sources on installs.
make.tcl:
- bootsupport: non-glob include_modules.config entries track only the latest
version - superseded recorded snapshot versions pruned; project-layout copies
mirror-pruned; virtual identity recorded on snapshot installs. Calls guarded
(info commands) so a stale bootsupport snapshot degrades to a warning and the
two-pass modules+bootsupport bootstrap self-heals.
- vendormodule copies in root modules*/ mirror-pruned after install.
docs/config:
- include_modules.config headers now document the entry format (non-glob =
latest-only + prune; glob chars = keep all matches; unrecorded never pruned)
- src/AGENTS.md TODO replaced with the durable prune contract;
src/bootsupport/AGENTS.md + src/tests/modules/AGENTS.md updated
tests: src/tests/modules/punk/mix/testsuites/cli/prune.test (19 tests) covering
virtual source recording/comparison and prune identity/safety rules.
Suites: punkcheck 64/64, full suite under Tcl 9.0.3 green except pre-existing
exec-14.3.
payload sync: bootsupport snapshots, project layouts and _vfscommon.vfs pruned
of superseded intermediates (~570k lines of stale .tm copies removed).

Built module trees accumulate superseded versions which vfscommonupdate/bootsupport propagate
into _vfscommon.vfs, bootsupport snapshots and shipped binaries. Records the planned prune step
and its punkcheck constraint: deletions must be reflected in (or pruned from) the affected
.punkcheck files so change detection stays sound.
