Survey outcome (punkbin vs punkshell platform folders): five naming sites
had drifted - punkbin folders, bin/runtime, vendorlib_tclX dirs, the
punkboot platform_generic snips (an old platform::generic copy), and the
Tcl platform package itself whose outputs vary by version (1.1.x renamed
modern macOS to 'macos', aarch64/amd64 pass through unmapped).
Canon: <os>-<cpu> punkshell platform-dir names, cpu normalized
amd64->x86_64 and aarch64->arm64 (arm = 32-bit; on macosx arm folds to
arm64 - Apple silicon is 64-bit only), os macos->macosx. The universal
'macosx' name is the runtime-tier convention (punkbin + bin/runtime keep
one macOS folder, per make.tcl's existing collapse); per-arch
macosx-x86_64/macosx-arm64 serve the lib tier.
- new module punk::platform 0.1.0: platforms (canonical records with
status supported/dormant/recognized + tiers), normalize, local
?-tier lib|runtime? - full PUNKARGS argdocs. Tcl's platform package
stays the raw identifier underneath.
- punk 0.2.7: 'help platforms' topic (alias 'platform'; all prefixes
mutually ambiguous so they fall through to command lookup, per the
env/environment precedent) - canon table with the local interpreter
marked and raw platform-package identifiers for comparison.
- boot: punkboot platform_punk (inline normalization copy, sync-comment
contract with the module) in punk_main.tcl/project_main.tcl/make.tcl;
all platform-dir call sites switched to it. make.tcl exercised live;
main.tcl copies brace-verified.
- vendorlib_tcl8/9 synchronized to canon: freebsd-amd64 -> freebsd-x86_64
(READMEs updated), freebsd-arm64/linux-arm64/macosx-arm64 added, tcl8's
untracked-empty linux-arm now tracked + tcl9 gains linux-arm, stray
untracked macosx-arm empties removed, msys-x86_64 marked dormant
pending a utility decision, top-level READMEs state the canon contract.
- punk-runtime bash prongs emit canonical names: aarch64 -> linux-arm64
(no fetch default until punkbin carries that folder), arch-aware
freebsd/openbsd/netbsd/dragonflybsd via normalized cpu tokens.
Rewrapped; roundtrip pin PASS; layout copy + .ps1 twin refreshed.
Flagged for user decisions (recorded in G-105 Notes): punkbin linux-arm
holds an arm64-named kit (recommend linux-arm64 folder at next arm
publish; artifacts immutable), msys-x86_64 disposition, optional
platform-1.1.x re-vendor, src/vfs stays mapvfs-categorized (recommend a
mapvfs platform column when cross-wraps land, not a .vfs tree
restructure). Project 0.18.0.

Per the *_beta convention (trial before punk tests, drop the suffix on
acceptance): punk9wintk905_beta.vfs renamed to punk9wintk905.vfs, the
runtime redeployed as bin/runtime/win32-x86_64/tclsh905.exe (fresh copy
of the suite's tclsh90szip.exe, self-containment smoked), and the
mapvfs.config entry becomes 'tclsh905.exe {punk9wintk905.vfs punk905
zip}' with the promotion recorded in the comment block. tcludp joins the
promoted vfs via vendorlib_vfs.toml (daily-driver expectation - teelog
workflows), installed by make.tcl vfslibs.
Built punk905.exe verified: kitcheck full pass (Thread/vfs/vfs::zip/
sqlite3/twapi/tcllibc/md5-accelerated/tk 9.0.2) plus udp 1.0.13; 'shell'
round-trips (repl 0.5.2, libunknown 0.2.1); kit-hosted console suites
71/71 via the src-mode child launch. Beta artifacts (bin/punk905_beta.exe,
runtime tclsh905_beta.exe) removed. A piperepl-runtime punk kit
(tclsh90sprzip base) remains G-103 kit-family territory.

All tcl9 zip kits failed the 'shell' subcommand with "could not find
interpreter code": the repl codethread could not resolve root-level tm
packages (commandstack, via punk::packagepreference) after any subdir tm
(punk::args) had resolved on the same path. zipfs_tm_UnknownHandler's
static-path can_skip_update state was WRITTEN keyed by the tm-list root
(currentsearchpath) but READ keyed by the namespace-subdir searchpath
actually scanned (specificsearchpath) - so a punk/ scan poisoned the
ROOT's skip map and later root-level requires were skipped as
known-absent. Only zipfs tm paths take the skip branch, which is why
src/dev filesystem launches never showed it; kits have exactly one
(zipfs) tm path so every shell boot hit it. Independent of the epoch-copy
unsoundness fixed earlier today (reproduced with a fresh libunknown init).
Fix: both added-map writes now key by specificsearchpath, matching the
reader and libunknown::init's indexbase keying. Version bumped to 0.2.1
with history note (the file rename itself rode the previous commit via a
staged git mv; this commit carries the 0.2.1 content).
_vfscommon refreshed via make.tcl modules + vfscommonupdate + vfs (also
picks up today's punk::lib epoch-export, punk::repl collect-guard and
punk::config PUNK_FOSSIL_STORE changes); 5 kits rebuilt. Verified:
ordered probe (subdir-then-root require in a fresh thread) fails on
kit-bundled 0.2.0, passes with 0.2.1; 'shell' now reaches the repl and
evaluates on punk905_beta, punk902z and punk91; full native runtests
sweep twice at machine baseline (1037/1021/15/1 exec-14.3 only).

New src/vfs/punk9wintk905_beta.vfs modelled on punk9wintk903.vfs: suite-built
tk9.0/tklib0.9/tcllib2.0/tcllibc/thread3.0.1/vfs1.4.2 payload (tk + thread
dlls in bin/ per the ../../bin pkgIndex convention; tclvfs dll rides inside
vfs1.4.2 - vfs.tcl loads from $::vfs::self), plus twapi5.0.2 + sqlite3.51.0
carried over from the 903 vfs for basic human trial. tcludp deliberately
omitted (one vendorlib_vfs.toml target line away if -teelog trials wanted).
Runtime = _build/suite_tcl90/out/bin/tclsh90szip.exe copied (untracked) to
bin/runtime/win32-x86_64/tclsh905_beta.exe - static tclsh 9.0.5 with the
tcl library in its attached zip; the zip wrap merge_overs that into the kit
so tcl_library survives (same mechanism as tclsh902z->punk902z).
Built with 'make.tcl vfs -confirm 0': punk905_beta.exe INSTALLED; kit smoke
passes - Thread/vfs/vfs::zip/sqlite3/twapi/tcllibc(md5 C-accelerated)/tk
9.0.2 all load with functional pokes, punk boot machinery active.
Beta-kit policy recorded in mapvfs.config + goal: wrap fresh suite runtimes
as *_beta kits even before punk tests pass, for early interactive trial.
Future noted: 'make.tcl vfs <kitname>' single-kit build + configured-kit
listing; move tclvfs/thread into the runtime-attached zip.

New vfs_startup_script_warning check runs for each .vfs folder about to
be built against a runtime: it passes if the folder has a root main.tcl
or a root fauxlink resolving to the name main.tcl whose target exists
and is a .tcl file. Otherwise a noticeable warning is emitted and the
build proceeds (a kit with no startup script is legal).
Warnings use a new general-purpose ::punkboot::print_build_warnings
channel: column-0 BUILD-WARNING: token for greppability, ANSI highlight
for humans, and recap at end of run via the wrapped ::exit (same
treatment as PROVENANCE-WARNING). Overlay-only folders with no runtime
mapping (e.g _vfscommon.vfs) are not checked. Contract documented in
src/vfs/AGENTS.md.

An interactive shell orphaned by its hosting console dying (killed
conhost/terminal) previously spun ~2 cores forever: the Tcl 9 windows
console driver never delivers the dead-console state to the script as a
fileevent (tclWinConsole.c ConsoleEventProc only notifies on buffered
data) while its reader thread busy-loops on the persistent channel error,
so the script level is completely blind and nothing ever closes the
channel.
Fix: repl::console_watchdog - a self-rescheduling liveness poll (default
5s, repl::console_watchdog_ms; read-only GetConsoleMode probe via
chan configure -inputmode) armed by repl::start only for a tcl9 console
input channel serving the process-default console on windows. On probe
failure it closes the input channel (stopping the driver's reader
thread) and finishes the repl via the normal eof done-path; app-punkshell
then finds no console reopenable and exits cleanly. Piped, foreign-console
and tcl 8.6 inputs never arm it. repl::start's post-vwait reader
deregistration now tolerates a watchdog-closed channel.
Verification (2026-07-12): kill procedure post-fix exits the orphan in
1.5-2.0s with no traceback (src mode and rebuilt kits punkbi/punk91/
punk902z); 25s live-console soak shows no spurious trigger, CPU delta 0;
piped stdin unaffected; repl consolebackends 3/3 and punk::console suites

Verified nothing depends on the old version or filename before renaming:
all 'package require punk::libunknown' sites are unversioned; punk_main.tcl
and punk::repl locate the module by globbing libunknown-*.tm and picking the
highest by vcompare (so the renamed dev copy now also outversions the stale
bootsupport and project.vfs 0.1 copies deterministically, instead of relying
on tm path order for a same-version tie); bootsupport's
include_modules.config lists it by name only.
The 0.2.0 number retroactively versions the two changes shipped against the
0.1 filename earlier today (register_all_tm deep discovery - a minor API
addition - and the source_pkgindex sourcing-scope fix). A version-history
comment block in the module header now substitutes for the buildversion.txt
changelog other modules carry.
src/modules/AGENTS.md: the punk::libunknown exception bullets now spell out
the manual-versioning mechanics for agents - same Patch/Minor/Major bump
rules as buildversion-tracked modules, executed as a file rename plus Meta
line, manpage_begin, provide-block and version-history updates, with a
check for exact-version/filename dependents before any first bump.
discovery.test/libsearch.test: the source-tree libunknown locator now picks
the highest libunknown-*.tm by vcompare instead of plain lsort (robust to
future version bumps). Verified live in punk902z src: package provide
reports 0.2.0, register_all_tm present, lib.search deep discovery intact.
Suites green under tclsh90 and tclsh87. Build artifacts synced (root
modules/ and _vfscommon.vfs carry only libunknown-0.2.0.tm).
punkshell 0.10.2. Stale 0.1 copies remain in src/bootsupport/modules
(pending 'make.tcl bootsupport') and src/vfs/project.vfs (pending layout
maintenance) - both now cleanly outversioned at runtime.

zipfs_tclPkgUnknown previously declared 'global dir' and executed pkgIndex.tcl
scripts via 'namespace eval ::' - the pkgIndex $dir contract was met by
writing the global namespace's dir variable, silently overwriting any user
global named 'dir' whenever a package require fell through to the pkg unknown
handler (observed misdirecting a file write into the user's Tcl installation
during test development), and each index's stray unqualified variables (ver,
pkg, script, _CawtSubDirs, ...) leaked into ::.
Index scripts now execute in a source_pkgindex proc frame: $dir is a formal
parameter and auto_path/env are global links - exactly the environment stock
tclPkgUnknown documents (its indexes see dir as the handler's proc-local plus
'global auto_path env'), without stock's incidental exposure of all its other
proc locals. tcl::Pkg::source uplevels into the caller's frame, so the scheme
works unchanged for the 8.6 pre-tip459 fallback. The legacy non-epoch branch
already sourced in the handler frame and simply gains stock parity from the
'global dir' removal.
Reviewed against tcllib 2.0's vendored index behaviours (all compatible):
qualified '$dir ni $::auto_path'/'lappend ::auto_path' extension in the
top-level index, its own apply-scoped subindex sweep (the same isolation
idiom), vsatisfies guards with early return, 'package provide' during index
sourcing (try/pkgIndex.tcl on 9+), and critcl-generated ifneeded strings
(md5c, tcllibc) whose proc definitions run at require time, not source time.
One deliberate divergence from stock: each index file gets its own frame,
so unqualified variables no longer persist between index files within one
sweep (stock shares its handler frame across the sweep) - nothing in tcllib
relies on that.
discovery.test: the GAP pin flips to libunknown_pkgunknown_preserves_global_dir,
plus new pins for the index contract - $dir-based ifneeded/source works,
unqualified 'lappend auto_path' extension reaches the real ::auto_path, and
stray index-script sets don't leak to ::. Verified live in punk902z src:
::dir no longer set at startup, user dir global survives package activity,
tcllib md5/struct::set/json load through the new frame, lib.search deep
discovery unaffected. Remaining startup globals def/pkg/ver come from
punkshell's own boot code (punk_main.tcl foreach loops), not the handler.
punkshell 0.10.1. punk::libunknown remains manually versioned at 0.1;
vfs artifact synced, bootsupport copy untouched as before.

punk::libunknown gains register_all_tm: walks every tcl:™️:list path
recursively and registers ifneeded scripts for .tm modules at every
namespace depth (the tm unknown handler only registers siblings at the
requested depth, leaving never-requested subfolders like test::* invisible
to 'package names'). First registration wins - parity with the handler and
the shadowing pins. Reuses/populates the per-epoch directory index cache
(zipfs whole-tree listing; per-dir globs for filesystem paths; #modpod-*,
#tarjar-* and _build skipped) and runs at most once per tm epoch per
interp - the guard is the interp-local tm_fullscan variable, deliberately
not in the shareable epoch dict since ifneeded registrations are
interp-local.
punk::mix::commandset::loadedlib 0.2.0: search runs register_all_tm plus
the auto_path pkgIndex sweep by default when punk::libunknown is active,
so 'dev lib.search test' now shows deep modules without -refresh.
-refresh is repurposed to mean a genuine filesystem re-scan: package epoch
incr (invalidating the scan caches) then rediscovery - picking up .tm
files added/removed on disk. Without punk::libunknown (or with an older
copy lacking register_all_tm) -refresh falls back to the previous
dummy-require deep walk. Dependency fixes: highlight ansi computed only
when -highlight 1 via qualified punk::ansi with inline require (previously
relied on the shell-global a+ alias unconditionally and errored in bare
interps), inline requires for punk::path (fallback walk) and textblock
(table output).
New test suites (green under tclsh90 and tclsh87):
- modules/punk/libunknown/testsuites/discovery/discovery.test: lazy-depth
sibling registration, register_all_tm all-depths/cached-per-epoch/
head-wins-parity, package epoch shape and trace-driven increments,
epoch-cache short-circuit + incr recipe, and a GAP pin of
zipfs_tclPkgUnknown clobbering a user global 'dir' variable (stock
tclPkgUnknown keeps dir proc-local; fix candidate).
- modules/punk/mix/testsuites/loadedlib/libsearch.test: search match
semantics, default deep discovery, -refresh re-scan contract, highlight
without shell-global ansi aliases.
Both suites source the source-tree punk::libunknown directly by path:
'package require' would tie-break the same-version bootsupport copy by tm
path order (testinterp order favours bootsupport; child-interp
'tm::add {*}list' reverses precedence).
Verified live in 'punk902z src'. Build artifacts synced via make.tcl
packages + vfscommonupdate (loadedlib-0.2.0.tm, libunknown-0.1.tm).
Note: src/bootsupport copy of punk::libunknown intentionally untouched -
becomes stale until the next 'make.tcl bootsupport' sync; loadedlib
degrades gracefully against it. punk::libunknown remains manually
versioned at 0.1.
punkshell 0.10.0 (see CHANGELOG.md; also records the 0.9.1 doc-only

- 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)

New 'make.tcl vfslibs' step (also run inside 'make.tcl project' before kit vfs
assembly): propagates declared vendored platform-library packages into kit vfs
lib_tcl<N> trees, ending the hand-copying that let kits ship a known-buggy
tcludp through three make invocations (the G-036/G-037 motivating case).
- declaration: src/runtime/vendorlib_vfs.toml, parsed with bootsupport tomlish
(no ad-hoc parsing; G-024's mapvfs toml conversion NOT required first - this
file is recorded as a candidate for absorption into it). [install.<name>]
entries: source (relative to src/), targets (kit vfs lib folders relative to
src/vfs/), optional supersedes (folder names removed from each target before
install - explicit, no silent mixed-version provision per G-035 concerns).
- participation is per-package per-kit; authority is the declaration - nothing
syncs undeclared, so the known vendorlib/kit twapi drift is deliberately
untouched (resolves the direction/authority design question).
- punkcheck provenance at src/vfs/.punkcheck (gitignored, outside kit
payloads); skip-if-unchanged proven (rerun: 0 copied, 9 skipped per target);
malformed/unresolvable entries fail the build naming the entry (exit 3).
- 8.6 kits upgraded (the G-036 loose-end decision, recorded): tcludp 1.0.13 is
dual-generation (pkgIndex selects tcl9udp1013.dll on 9+, udp1013t.dll on
8.5+) so the single vendorlib_tcl9 source serves punk8win.vfs/lib_tcl8;
superseded udp1.0.12 removed.
- verified on rebuilt kits: punksys/punkbi (8.6.13) and punk902z (9.0.2) all
report package require udp == 1.0.13 loading the generation-appropriate dll
from their vfs; no udp1.0.12 remains under src/vfs; punksys piped-shell exit
smoke clean.
- G-037 flipped proposed -> achieved 2026-07-08 under user direction (no
intermediate active stop).
- includes project-build byproducts via established channels: bootsupport
snapshots refreshed to punk-0.2.1 / punk::lib-0.3.0 (from today's version
bumps) and make.tcl synced into layout copies.
- project 0.4.8 (CHANGELOG entry)

Root cause: Tk registers a main loop (Tcl_SetMainLoop); tclsh''s Tcl_Main
services it after the script, so `tclsh gui.tcl` behaves like wish. The
script subcommand sourced-then-exited, so a Tk script''s after-callbacks
never ran (scriptlib/tktimer.tcl flashed and died; shell was the
workaround). Confirmed: native tclsh tktimer 1 blocks ~1.35s; script did
0.38s.
Fix: after the script body (success paths only), if a Tk main loop is
registered (info exists ::tk_version && winfo exists .), tkwait window .
services the event loop until the main window closes, then exit - the
script-level equivalent of Tcl_Main. A script that exits from a callback
(tktimer countdown) terminates directly. Console scripts have no main
loop and exit at once; a script error exits at once (no hanging window).
Verified both generations: tktimer via script now blocks the countdown
(punk902z 1.49s, punksys 1.57s - Tk present in both) exit 0; tkhello_exit
immediate; tk-script-that-errors exit 1 in 0.37s (no hang); tkhello (no
self-close) blocks like wish; console script unaffected. Enables G-020
GUI automation via `script` instead of `shell` (noted in G-020 detail).
Project version 0.4.1.

app-punkscript accepts lib:<name> (with or without .tcl - extensionless
appends it) as the shell subcommand does: `punkexe script lib:hello` or
bare `punkexe lib:hello` via reclassification. The prefix always wins; a
literal path beginning lib: (pathological - colon is illegal in Windows
filenames) is reachable via ./lib:... Not-found errors list every
searched location; only .tcl runs via the script subcommand.
Resolution policy is factored into punk::path::scriptlib_resolve
(PUNKARGS-documented) rather than copied inline: kit-internal
app/scriptlib first and deliberately not externally overridable, then
scriptlib dirs relative to the executable - the same policy
app-punkshell encodes inline (todo noted: refactor the shell path onto
the shared proc). Share definitions via modules, not launcher control
flow.
Verified on both generations (punk902z, punksys): lib:hello
extensionless and explicit, bare-arg reclassification, not-found
candidate listing (bin/scriptlib then <root>/scriptlib for a bin/ exe).
Project version 0.4.0 (backward-compatible behaviour addition).

app-punkscript loads punk::args::moduledoc::tclcore (catch-guarded,
mirroring the punk::repl code-interp setup) so core Tcl commands are
documented in script runs as at the repl: `''i list'' | punkexe script`
now renders the doc table instead of "Undocumented command". Cost ~40ms;
kit script startup ~0.33s. REVIEW note added: the default-punk-shell
package set is now expressed in app-punkscript AND the repl codethread
setup - consolidation into one shared definition is the G-015-noted
follow-on.
punk::packagepreference 0.1.1: moduledoc auto-load success notice moved
stdout -> stderr (stdout must stay machine-clean for script/exec
contexts; the failure branch already used stderr).
Verified on both generations (punk902z, punksys): i list doc table on
stdout, notice on stderr, timing unchanged. Build-order footnote: lib
changes need make.tcl libs before vfscommonupdate - the modules-only
first rebuild shipped a stale app-punkscript payload.
Project version 0.3.1.

New lean app package src/lib/app-punkscript behind the (previously stub)
script subcommand in punk_main.tcl:
- `<commands> | <punkexe> script` runs piped stdin to EOF - no trailing
exit needed; `<punkexe> script <file> ?args?` runs a file with
conventional ::argv0/::argv (bare non-subcommand first arg still
reclassifies to the file form). Script may itself read stdin in the
file form.
- Default punk shell environment via shared definitions (package punk
registers deck aliases e.g dev; punk::aliascore::init adds the utility
aliases) - no local alias lists, no boilerplate in piped one-liners.
- Honest exit codes: 0 success, 1 on error with errorInfo on stderr,
script''s own exit honoured. No shellfilter stacks/transforms, no
logging side effects, no interactive fallback (terminal stdin with no
scriptname is a usage error, never a blocking read or shell).
- Stdin form echoes the script''s final result when non-empty (one-shot
eval ergonomics: return-value commands like `dev projects.work <glob>`
emit their table without a puts wrapper); file form keeps pure script
semantics.
Verified on both generations (punk902z/tcl9 from _build - bin deploy was
file-locked; punksys/tcl8.6 from bin): piped success/error/exit-code,
file form with args and stdin passthrough, missing-file error, motivating
one-liner `dev projects.work *tomlish*` emitting the project table with
exit 0, `src` mode combination (dev modules load), and `shell` subcommand
regression smoke. G-015 flipped to achieved 2026-07-07 per GOALS.md
rules; goal detail records the verification and the manual console
spot-check item. Project version 0.3.0 (new user-visible shell
capability - minor bump).

vendorupdate pulls tomlish 1.1.10 from a clean tomlish checkout: the
library API punk::config will consume now carries punk::args (PUNKARGS)
documentation - from_toml, to_dict, from_dict, to_toml,
update_tomlish_from_dict - completing the G-014 precondition
(documentation added upstream in the tomlish project, landed here by
re-vendoring, never by editing src/vendormodules copies). 1.1.10 also
carries the explicit tomlish::cmdline_main entry point (wrapped-exe
startup fix; the load-time argv side effect is gone).
vfscommonupdate refreshes the punkshell kit payload to the current built
modules: shellfilter 0.2.3 (channel-restoration try/finally), shellrun
0.1.4, punkboot::utils 0.1.1, punk::console 0.7.1 content catch-up, and
tomlish 1.1.10.
Project version 0.2.7.
