Three goals arising from the G-122 work, each drafted with its overlap survey and
approved before writing.
G-124 - dependency-free zip reading in punk::zip. Nothing in the tree can READ a zip
without zipfs, vfs::zip or tcllib's zipfile::decode, which is a system package punkshell
does not vendor and which has exactly one consumer: make.tcl's zipfs-less kit extraction.
The goal removes that requirement outright (not as an optional fallback), adds an
introspection surface so punk::zip is useful to script programmers, and gives the writer
its first round-trip coverage. Measured motivation recorded in the detail file: msys2's
tclsh8.6 has no tcllib and so bakes an unbootable kit, and extract_preamble's live
'#todo - need to adjust offsets' means a FILE-relative prefixed executable
(tclsh90b4_piperepl.exe) splits into a .zip tcllib rejects with "Bad closure" - reading
the original file at its derived base offset removes that failure mode by construction.
G-125 - a kit that cannot boot is not deployed. Today a failed extraction emits a
recapped BUILD-WARNING and then deletes and replaces the deployed kit anyway; field-
observed 2026-07-26 replacing a working punk91.exe with one that dies on init.tcl. The
gate tests the boot precondition on the assembled vfs, so a kit whose payload legitimately
supplies its own tcl library still builds.
G-126 - punkzip as a VENDORED zip accelerator behind G-124's pure-Tcl floor, with zig
kept optional (a tclsh-only clean checkout must still build and bake). Feasibility
measured and recorded: the source builds clean under its declared zig 0.15.2, and under
0.16 fails on one surfaced error (std.process.argsAlloc), with the OS-facing surface
confined to 3 of ~20 files while the ~10k-line compression core is untouched; zig 0.16.0
is already unpacked in bin/tools. Benchmarks captured for the speedup claim.
Non-contract Notes back-pointers added to G-034 (the reader is a candidate for its own
Acceptance's "alternative modpod mount path" branch) and G-101 (an 8.6 container has no
zipfs, so it needs a reader that works without one).

Everything a bake EMITS is now keyed by the artifact's TARGET platform rather than the
driving tclsh's personality: the bin/runtime/<tier> store a runtime is read from, .exe
suffixing of runtime files and kit outputs, presence checks, and whether the pre-deploy
process sweep uses tasklist/taskkill or ps/kill. Host semantics - copy commands, path
handling, filesystem case rules, prompts - stay keyed to the host.
The default target is the host's platform canon EXCEPT for a cygwin-family host (an
msys2/cygwin-runtime tclsh, which reports tcl_platform(platform) unix on windows), which
targets win32-x86_64. Such a host now drives the identical kit set, names and store
addressing as a native tclsh; before, it reported every kit runtime=missing against a
nonexistent mingw64-x86_64 store.
mapvfs.config entries take an optional 4th element naming the kit's target platform, so a
runtime kept in another platform's tier is a first-class mapping entry. The linux tclkit
entry now declares linux-x86_64 and bakes to a suffixless bin/punkshell902.
Zip-type kits assemble without zipfs in the driving tcl: when tcl::zipfs::mkimg is absent
(any 8.6) the image is built by raw-runtime split + punk::zip::mkzip + concatenation - the
same helper the zipcat type uses. Both mount identically (archive-start-relative offsets).
Fixes exposed by the above: the runtime capability probe looked for a suffixless filename
and so reported find-fail for every runtime on windows; with real capabilities arriving,
the extraction try-list was found to test capability presence rather than value, which
would send a plain zipfs runtime down the kit path where a failed sdx mksplit replaces
raw_runtime with the un-split original; BUILDCOPY names now follow the runtime's own
filename; runtime map keys strip only .exe (file rootname would eat the last dotted
segment of tclsh9.0.5); and native windows command lines run through a guard suppressing
msys2's posix-path argument rewriting - without it taskkill /PID <n> reached taskkill as
taskkill C:/<msysroot>/PID <n>, so the sweep could find a running kit but never replace it.
punk::platform folds the msys2 family (mingw64/mingw32/ucrt64/clang*) onto one stable
'msys' tag and CYGWIN_NT onto 'cygwin' - msys2's uname renders that token from MSYSTEM,
so one binary otherwise canonizes differently per launching shell. New normalize_os;
cygwin-x86_64 added to the platform table; 'help platforms' documents the fold.
make.tcl check reports the derivation on one line; bakelist rows carry target=<platform>
for non-default targets and the detail block names the tier; workflow text gains key note
[K9]. New characterization suite maketclplatform.test (5 tests, two self-gating on
discovering and probing a real msys/cygwin tclsh). Full suite 1112 tests: 1093 passed,
18 skipped, 1 failed = the documented exec-14.3 baseline.
Verified: msys2 tclsh8.6 bakelist output identical to native Tcl 9; a changed punk91
baked and deployed from that host with the sweep killing a running instance msys ps
cannot see; a real cross-target linux kit baked from windows to a 24MB ELF; a zipfs-less
8.6 bake producing a bootable zip kit.

The pre-activation survey (f4031b20) extended G-101's Scope in the detail file
but not the index, leaving goals_lint at exit 1 on the Status/Scope mirror
check. Scope is a contract element canonical in the INDEX, so the detail-file
edit was both the wrong tier and not proposal-first - that commit's "Notes-only
on the goal" opening misclassified it. A clean lint run would not have caught
the underlying problem either: had both tiers been edited together lint would
have passed green with the contract change still unapproved. goals_lint checks
consistency, not authorization.
User-approved this session: the index moves to the extended wording rather than
the detail file reverting - the survey genuinely brought bin/sdx.kit and three
further reference trees into the goal's territory.
Both tiers now carry an identical, tier-neutral line. The survey's "see ...
below" cross-references resolve only inside the detail file while the index
entry must stay safe standalone (GOALS.md Format), so they become "inventory in
the detail file". src/buildsuites/suite_tcl86/patches/ is added: the sdx
wrap.tcl provenance capture is tracked material this goal now owns and was named
in neither tier.
goals_lint clean (79 active-index goals, 44 archived).

Extends the 8.6 buildsuite with the remaining pieces punkshell's Tcl 8 testing
depends on, all built from source with the pinned zig 0.16.0 toolchain only.
Tk 8.6.17 (build_tk86/build_tk86.zig) is a RE-DERIVATION from the staged 8.6
win/makefile.vc + rules.vc, not a port of suite_tcl90's build_tk.zig:
- no generic/tkPkgConfig.c in 8.6 -> no CFG_* defines at all
- rules.vc TCL_MAJOR_VERSION==8 arm -> tk86t.dll + lib/tk8.6 (vs tcl9tk90.dll)
- @TK_WIN_VERSION@ substitutes $(DOTVERSION).0.0, not the tcl-style
<dotversion>.<releaselevel>.<patchlevel> formula
- 8.6 TKOBJS carries no tkIcu/tkImgListFormat/tkImgSVGnano/tkWinGDI/tkWinIco/
tkWinSysTray; XLIBOBJS is a first-class makefile macro here (the 9.0
derivation had to recover those files by hand)
USE_TCL_STUBS + USE_TCLOO_STUBS against libtclstub86.a is the stock rules.vc
arrangement and keeps the dll loadable by both suite shells. tkMain.c is
compiled twice per makefile.vc, the ansi copy forced with -UUNICODE/-U_UNICODE
(verified the pinned zig cc defines neither for x86_64-windows-gnu, so the 8.6
core's ANSI/TCHAR arrangement is matched exactly).
tklib 0.9 and tcllib 2.0 install via their own installer.tcl (batch, packages
only, explicit -pkg-path so the installer's tcl_pkgPath-derived default can
never write off-tree); tcllibc is built by critcl 3.3.1 driving zig cc (tracked
critcl_zig.config, target pinned win32-x86_64-zig - critcl otherwise probes PATH
and falls back to its builtin msvc target). critcl compiles against its own
bundled headers chosen by the driving shell's version, which is why one config
serves both generations.
New evidence tools, run on every build:
tools/tk_smoke.tcl maps a real toplevel with classic + themed widgets,
updates, then destroys it - a load-only check passes
even with no usable display
tools/accel_bench.tcl same payload through sha1's critcl and pure-Tcl
implementations with the digests compared:
4MB -> critcl 5.7ms vs pure-tcl 2736ms = 477x
Test tiers (G-107 policy pattern): test-tcllib/test-tklib on the record tier
inside test-libraries, plus an opt-in test-tk (winDialog/winMsgbox excluded by
default - their message-injection automation blocks on a human under a batch
shell). First censuses on tclsh86ts.exe 8.6.18:
thread 142 run / 0 failed GATE PASS
tklib 796 run / 0 failed record
tcllib 64259 run / 41 failed record (names in the summary artifact)
tclvfs 51 run / 4 failed GATE PASS after baseline extension
The tclvfs baseline grew vfsFtp-1.1..1.3: they sit behind an 'ftp' constraint
needing tcllib's ftp package - absent at the G-099 capture, satisfied now that
the suite installs tcllib - so they run and reach the retired ftp.tcl.tk, the
same external-service class already baselined for vfsUrl-1.2/2.1.
punkshell runtests census (both runs 2026-07-26, identical flags, default
single-process sequential - 8.6 has no tcl::process so -jobs re-convoys):
native Tcl 8.6.17 1003 total / 986 passed / 10 skipped / 7 failed
suite tclsh86ts 1003 total / 987 passed / 10 skipped / 6 failed
runtests_parity.tcl finds exactly ONE difference: punkcheck
concurrency_two_writers_no_corruption failed in the BASELINE run and passed on
the suite runtime - a full-suite-load flake (6/6 twice in isolation on both
runtimes). Zero suite-runtime-only failures. Tk-dependent suites ran unskipped
(repl consolebackends 3/3, including the tkconsole backend on the suite Tk).
Two defects fixed in passing:
- scrubTclEnv never cleared TCL<major>_<minor>_TM_PATH, so suite shells
silently preferred machine/repo tm modules over what the suite had just
installed (a repo-built sha1-2.0.4.tm shadowed tcllib's 2.0.5, md5 2.0.8
shadowed 2.0.9) - any census through such a shell measures the machine. The
scrub list now covers TCL8_0..8_7 + TCL9_0/9_1 in all three sites (per-step,
suite.tcl process-level, bootstrap nested build). suite_tcl90 has the same
exposure via TCL9_0_TM_PATH and is deliberately untouched here (out of this
goal's scope) - pointers recorded in G-108 and G-116.
- build.zig.zon's .fingerprint was hand-authored, so 'zig build' from the
tracked suite dir died with 'invalid fingerprint' - the no-tclsh bootstrap
flow could never have run. Corrected to zig's computed value (its low half
is a checksum of the package name); 'zig build stage' now verified.
Goal flipped to achieved 2026-07-26 and archived; reference sweep updated G-005,
G-101, G-105 and ARCHITECTURE.md, and the archive-time xref pair G-101 <-> G-116
(whose only bridges were the archived G-100/G-103) gained a direct Related
pointer. No project-version bump - arm's-length build tooling, not shipped shell
behaviour.

Builds a Tcl 8.6.18 windows runtime from core-8-6-branch sources with the
pinned zig 0.16.0 toolchain only (no MS toolchain), forked from suite_tcl90
(duplication-with-a-note posture). Products (stock threaded-release naming -
rules.vc keeps the 't' SUFX on 8.6):
bin/tcl86t.dll + tcl86t.lib shared core (static zlib compiled in; no zlib1.dll)
bin/tclsh86ts.exe static shell (kit-class; dde/registry static)
bin/tclsh86t.exe dynamic shell against the dll
lib/libtclstub86.a stub lib for extensions
lib/tcl8.6/... script library tree (dde/reg dlls inside)
lib/tcl8/{8.5,8.6}/... tm modules; lib/thread2.8.13, lib/vfs1.4.2
Companions: thread 2.8.13 (thread2813t.dll, TEA installed shape from the
checkout's own pkgIndex.tcl.in) and tclvfs 1.4.2 (vfs142t.dll) build and load;
registry 1.3.5 / dde 1.4.6. No zipfs in 8.6 - exe+dll+on-disk lib tree only,
resolved hermetically (exe/dll-relative, TCLLIBPATH/TCL_LIBRARY unset in all
child runs).
Recipe: build86.zig + build_common.zig + build_zlib86/build_tclthread86/
build_tclvfs86 helpers; tools/ and src/main.zig copied verbatim (suite-agnostic).
Two load-bearing 8.6 findings recorded in the README DERIVATION and recipe
comments: MP_FIXED_CUTOFFS (the in-core libtommath ships no bn_cutoffs.c) and
TCL_BROKEN_MAINARGS + console subsystem for the gcc-class main() entry.
Test gates (suite.tcl test -> zig build test-gate/test-libraries) parse all.tcl
totals (exit codes untrusted) and gate against tracked dispositioned baselines.
First census + two-consecutive-run deterministic PASS (machine SuperBee):
core 46525 run / 2 failed (filename-16.12/16.13 admin-share self-globbing)
thread 142 run / 0 failed (empty baseline)
tclvfs 51 run / 2 failed (vfsUrl-1.2/2.1 external ftp.tcl.tk dependency)
Goal flipped to achieved 2026-07-26 and archived; reference sweep updated G-005,

canonical punkbin origin - no new prompts in existing flows incl. the
unattended tclsfe-x64 constraint fetch; untrusted/alternative servers gate

retroactive schema-v2 provenance sidecars for the existing punkbin
third-party artifacts (additive only - bytes, bare pre-family names,
sha1sums.txt authority unchanged). Signing deliberately deferred per user

New proposed goal: 'bakelist ?kitname...?' informational lister (mapping +

'bake ?kitname...?' selective baking with bare bake unchanged. Both defined
against the parsed mapping model so the G-024 toml conversion slides

action-grouped bake rejected per the G-112 stage-true principle; bare 'kits'

New informational pass in goals_lint (stem-sibling repair heuristic): a
live-tier reference to a version-suffixed filename that is MISSING while a
same-stem sibling exists on disk warns, naming the sibling(s) - the drift
signature of manually-versioned module bumps (libunknown), magic-scheme
conversions (config) and stamped bootsupport/vendored renames (fauxlink),
exactly the classes fixed in the preceding hygiene commit. References with no
stem-sibling stay quiet (proposed goals legitimately name future artifacts);
archive tier, globs, URLs, absolute paths and 999999.0a1.0 exempt; warnings
never fatal (Scope is contract text - the fix stays a directed edit).
Verified: clean on the current tree (incl. correctly-silent existing legacy
artifacts) and against a synthetic fixture exercising warn + all five silent
classes with per-file dedupe.
GOALS.md: front matter bumped v2 -> v3; version-section policy broadened per
user direction - bump for ANY change that could affect how an LLM interprets
or uses the system (contract, grammar, tooling behaviour, output shape);
liberal bumping endorsed. Format section gains Scope version-reference
guidance (glob or magic-version filename for stamped files; exact versions
only in dated prose). goals/AGENTS.md Verification describes the new check;
src/modules/AGENTS.md manual-versioning bullet gains bump step (4): the doc
reference sweep.

Holder named: punk::libunknown zipfs_tm_UnknownHandler's builtin-static
shortcircuit leaked its version-probe child interp 'ptest' whenever an
UNVERSIONED package require of a true static reached the handler -
'package vsatisfies $v' with zero requirement args throws wrong#args,
skipping both interp-delete lines. The leaked non-safe child holds
registrations on the process std channels, so 'chan close stderr' left the
OS handle alive and the slot occupied; the next open got a fileN name and
puts stderr failed (punk91/tclsfe-9.1b0 only: Thread is a true static there,
punk905 loads it from a dll so the block never fires).

build_id, 'info' identifies sidecar-paired/renamed-stray/pre-v1 files without
execution and flags doctored-sidecar disagreements, punkbin AGENTS.md schema
docs, roundtrip pin green, record survives make.tcl kit wrapping (punk9_beta
reads its runtime's r2 record in-kit), r2 re-emitted with full v1 records.
Sweep: achieved markers in G-025/G-057/G-108/G-116/G-118/G-119 (G-025's
survival expectation updated to confirmed). tclshcmd.test pins
::tclsh(reopened) publication on the rebuilt patched kits (G-118 items 1+7
landed+verified; Progress updated). build905.zig: packager git-identity leg
judges success by output not out_code (resolved 'unrecorded' on this host -
effective at next emission).

User-approved draft from the publication-session design exchanges:
embed a copy of the artifact record in the attached image (embed-then-
hash ordering; sidecar + sha1sums stay the integrity authority) with a
punk-runtime 'info' action for stray/renamed binaries (zip-central-
directory read preferred over executing the target), AND harden the
record as schema v1: schema, build_id (embedded+sidecar correlation
uuid), origin (canonical repo built FOR - the timing-safe reframe of
first-published-on; mirrors preserve it), packager (declarative;
minisign noted as the verification complement), project/project_url,
license summary, build_host_platform. Emitted records gain brief toml
'#' comments for non-obvious fields (line-based consumers ignore them
by construction). Lifecycle fields deliberately rejected as repo-level
curation. Next emission after landing = r2; published r1 immutable.

User-approved draft giving the tcltls battery line a live goal home after
G-103's archive: backend choice (LibreSSL-portable vs no-asm OpenSSL) is
an in-goal decision, static link mirrors the tcllibc/tk shape, loopback
self-signed handshake + G-107 record-mode testsuite as verification, and
vendored prebuilt removal explicitly scoped OUT (recorded disposition
only - G-004-era work).

Final acceptance item closed by the punk9_beta/punk9bi_beta kit-wrap
trial (user go-ahead; quiet tree): make.tcl project wrapped both kits
over the family runtimes (the user's own earlier same-day build agreed -
punkcheck no-change), and probes UNDER each kit verified 9.0.5,
//zipfs:/app/tcl_library, PIPEREPL MACHINERY PRESENT, Thread 3.0.7
winning over the vfs payload's legacy thread3.0.1, vfs/tcllib/tcllibc
engaged, punk::args from the vfs side, and Tk create/destroy in both -
punk9bi_beta's Tk necessarily from the runtime's attached image
(punk9win_for_tkruntime.vfs carries none). Every acceptance clause is
now met; evidence recorded in the detail file.
Flip mechanics: Status achieved 2026-07-22; detail file to
goals/archive/ (content-identical move after edits); index entry to
GOALS-archive.md; reference sweep across 13 live goal files (archive
markers per the G-058 precedent - non-contract text only, Scope lines
untouched; pending-tense updates in G-099 arc-unblocked, G-108 family
production landed, G-018/G-023 naming-authority pointers). Forward
pointers pushed to live goals: G-101 (8.6-family deferral target),
G-067 (family -rN artifacts exist; publication user-gated with the
defaults.txt flip process).
Flagged (completion report): tcltls bi-battery line loses its goal home
with this archive - candidate goal on request; punk9wintk905.vfs legacy
thread3.0.1 payload cleanup can ride a future payload refresh; beta
promotion is the user's interactive trial per the *_beta convention.

User-approved draft from the binary-policy framing discussion: per-.vfs
toml declarations materialize payload from suite build products, punkbin
artifact classes (consent-gated) and vendor trees, making kit payloads
buildable on a clean binary-free tree (G-004) - while the folder remains
the operative assembly area: declarations optional, undeclared drop-ins
preserved (permissive derived projects and gitignored test .vfs keep
drop-in simplicity). Context records the precedents (vendorlib_vfs.toml,
G-087 layout_materialize, vendored tomlish), the relationship to the
punkbin third-class question, and precedence design as the core work.

User-approved draft from the platform-canon survey discussion: binary
modpod .tm are one-platform-per-file under per-platform TM ROOTS the boot
registers for the running platform only (punk::platform canon names).
Context records the motivating fat-tm evidence (oversized downloads;
same-version shadowing with no drop-in path), the subdirs-are-namespace-
components constraint forcing sibling roots, and the division of labour
with G-109 (manifest target-platform field stays there). Deliberately
dormant until binary-.tm distribution starts - no speculative structure.

Next in the user-confirmed sequence after G-097 (achieved 2026-07-21),
ahead of the 8.6 arc (G-099/G-100/G-101). Contract untouched - the
naming decision, piperepl default-on policy, tcltls battery line and
TIP-741 temp-dll characterization were already recorded in the detail
file while proposed.
Assisted-by: harness=claude; primary-model=claude-fable-5; api-location=anthropic.com
User-approved goal from the modpod characterization session. The modpod module
carries broken tar-era code (undefined tar::readHeader connect path,
::tarjar::connected reference, con/connected + versionpart typos, malformed
set/lindex constructs, debug stderr, unimplemented wrapped get) while the live
zip surface (make_zip_modpod + self-mount stub) has ZERO automated tests
anywhere - the detail file inventories both with line refs.
Preservation-aware by design: tarjar-system artifacts (vendored tarjar-2.4.3.tm
carrying the G-110 .TclSoCache prior art, the _build #tarjar tree, cli
#tarjar-* build branch, libunknown skip-globs) are assess-only with
per-item user-confirmed dispositions - old tarjar material at
c:/tclmodules/main (incl the intermediate tarpack generation) is preserved and
migrated manually by the user, outside this goal.
Acceptance: defects dispositioned + recorded, tarjar grep clean-or-deliberate,
testsuite (wrap -> require from disk + zipfs paths, binary payload, unwrapped
redirect, both -offsettype forms) passing on tcl9 kit + 8.6 (or recorded G-034
limitation), re-vendored into shellspy.

Two goals split out of the modpod/TIP-741 characterization work, user-approved.
G-109 (libunknown manifest-declared multi-name discovery): a zip-based .tm
declares case-variant and sub-package require names in a manifest at a
well-known internal location, discovered by libunknown at scan time - with
real-disk scan performance preserved (worst-case parity with plain tclsh's
builtin tm handler; libunknown exists to fix slow-drive/large-tree scan cost).
Multi-name .tm are punkshell-only (documented); TIP 590 lowercase single-name
stays the plain-tclsh happy path; extensive-tests bar recorded.
G-110 (extraction cache investigation): whether per-run fresh-temp-dir copies
are necessary or replaceable by a single per-user content-addressed cache
(hash-keyed parent dir). Carries the 2026-07-21 sniff evidence: concurrent
sharing of one copy works; classic Win32 delete refused while mapped; POSIX-
semantics delete succeeds with mappings unharmed (a third option next to TIPs
741/709: unlink-after-load on modern NTFS). Fallback requirement recorded:
punkshell wants a win32/old-Windows fallback (industrial systems on isolated
VMs/old hardware) - capability-probe, classic-safe GC degradation. Precedents
(.NET single-file, critcl cache), sibling-dll sets, AV interplay, and the
cheapest-first implementation surfaces (modpod stub -> suite core patch ->
upstream) recorded.
G-066 note pointed at the new goals.

All six acceptance clauses satisfied (suite tclsh90s.exe 9.0.5, zig 0.16.0,
machine superbee): thread 143/0 + tclvfs 51/7 GATED with tracked dispositioned
baselines, deterministic across consecutive full runs; tcllib 62328/54 WITH
tcllibc accelerators engaged + tklib 796/18 RECORDED with artifact paths in the
detail file; tk opt-in step with a recorded first census (9865/27, native-
dialog files excluded by default); per-library policy/testargs/notfiles
overridable at invocation; no-totals fails the step in gate AND record mode
(verified); evidence-summary shape documented for the G-103 metadata consumer.
Flips G-107 active -> achieved and archives it (index entry to GOALS-archive.md,

payload-refresh forward-pointer (the suite now derives thread naming from the
checkout; the punk905 kit payload still carries the old 3.0.1 copy) and the
evidence-summary-shape pointer; G-108 Notes record that its constrained-test
runs reuse G-107's test_gate generalization + -notfiles knob.

Index entry + detail file for a debug tier of suite_tcl90: build debug-flavoured
runtimes (NDEBUG off / tcl::test compiled in; deeper tier adds TCL_MEM_DEBUG for
the script-level memory command), named with a trailing -dbg<n> suffix, and run
the core suite's normally skipped C-test-command-constrained tests in record
mode (never gated). Kit-family debug members coordinate with G-103; the
TCL_MEM_DEBUG all-or-nothing linking constraint drives the feasibility item.

New goal from the 2026-07-21 discussion: the libraries the buildsuites compile
and ship (thread, tclvfs, tcllib+tcllibc, tklib, tk) get their own testsuites
run under the suite-built shell as named recipe steps with per-library policy -
gate (core test-gate mechanism, dispositioned baselines), record (report
artifacts under out/testreports/), or opt-in (tk). Context carries the source
survey, test_gate.tcl generalization notes, G-102 cost knowns, and the G-103
metadata / 8.6-arc relationships.

Layout fold ("fold stale layout fixes into this"): both layout stores
(src/project_layouts/vendor/punk/project-0.1/bin and the modpod-templates
equivalent) had shipped a stale 2025-era runtime.cmd and a pre-G-096
getzig.cmd - the getzig rename had missed this channel entirely, so
generated projects still received old-named, stale utilities. Both renamed
via git mv AND refreshed to byte-copies of the current bin/punk-runtime.cmd
+ bin/punk-getzig.cmd; the layout src/runtime/Readme.md references updated
in both stores (the layout bin/runtime/ data-dir READMEs are gitignored -
updated on disk only, like the root bin/runtime/README.md); residual
old-name scan of the layout trees clean. The built modpod zips (root
modules/ + bootsupport templates-0.2.0.tm) carry old names until their
normal re-vendor cycles. Layout paths join the goal Scope per the approved
fold.

User verified tclsh90spr 2026-07-20: interactive sessions normal with and
without TCLSH_PIPEREPL=0 (closes the G-096 matrix's residual user-level
check), and basic punk features work on the bare pr shell via repo tm
paths (raw mode twapi-reliant). Via './tclsh90spr src/make.tcl shell' the
powershell console-mode fallback engaged and raw mode worked - modulo
consolemode_server_async.ps1 noise and an early server shutdown.
New G-106 captures the requested direction: maintain the fallback as a
dependable raw-mode path for twapi-less runtimes (suite shells/kits),
hardening the known weak points recorded at creation - argv0-derived
pstooldir resolution (works for make.tcl shell by construction, little
else; kits need G-089 scriptlib delivery), server early-shutdown +
startup noise, and the unmarked experiment variants beside the canonical
script in scriptlib/utils/pwsh. Priority rises if G-103's zig-built twapi
investigation proves impractical - cross-noted there.
