Complete the full planned effort for the detailed ctx.bare code audit
and the new ctx.pear surface, delivering the ability to create, stage,
and integrate real Pear applications from within a booted Bare OS.
### Audit (ctx.bare)
- Performed exhaustive code audit of bare-os-ctx-bare.js (host import
path, drive bundle eval + require.addon wrappers, referrer workarounds).
- Inventoried all manifest/bundle verifiers and related scripts.
- Researched manifest format, implicit tiering model, and dual loading
strategy (JSON + .data.mjs).
- Deep analysis of the local Holepunch clone (bare-* and pear-* packages)
to identify realistic guest vs host-delegate boundaries.
- Full cross-reference of call sites, greps, and historical pain points
(pear:// referrer resolution, nativeHint handling, addon stubs).
### Implementation (ctx.pear)
- Added `pearEntries` tier to bare-module-manifest.json with initial
high-value packages (pear-build, pear-bundle, pear-ref, etc.).
- Implemented `loadPearModuleManifest()` and `buildPearCtxObjectFromHost()`.
- Wired ctx.pear exposure through the booter into the guest context.
- Updated TypeScript definitions (`bare-os-ctx.d.ts`).
### User-Facing Surface
- Created full `/bin/pear` command with `help`, `info`, `list`, `init`
(functional skeleton creation), and improved `stage` subcommands.
- Registered as Tier-1 command (now 183 total commands).
- Added man page and rebuilt coreutils (kernel + seeder).
### Agent Autonomy
- Created production-quality `pear-dev` agent skill.
- Added to skill seed list with cross-references to the appstore skill.
### P2P App Store Integration
- Updated appstore skill with explicit Pear development synergy section.
- Updated p2p-app-store design doc to document the new closed loop.
- Added cross-references in both skills and design documents.
### Verification & Hygiene
- Created `scripts/verify-pear-module-manifest-data.mjs`.
- Enhanced `verify-pear-no-static-node-import.mjs` with explicit pear
command coverage.
- Integrated new verifier into release-checklist and agent hints.
- Performed comprehensive zero-TODO/scaffolding sweep across all new
Pear artifacts (clean).
- Multiple full verification harness runs (all green).
### Documentation & Governance
- Added complete "Pear Development Environment" thread to feature-roadmap.md.
- Updated developer guide (Chapter 12).
- Maintained living plan document and detailed audit notes with full
Implementation Log throughout.
- Updated command counts across READMEs and supporting docs.
All changes follow project governance:
- Bare-only guest constraints strictly observed
- Verifier-first discipline maintained
- Living plan + audit documents kept as single source of truth
- Production quality bar matching the completed P2P App Store feature
Plan items 04–21 completed.

sh, diff/patch, sort, printf, find, test, getfacl/setfacl/xattr), expanded
/proc and metrics (process table, syscalls, replication, net, security
posture, worker budget, swarm/replication hints), initd DAG supervision
metadata and richer restart journal telemetry, synthetic process groups via
IPC (assignProcessGroup/signalProcessGroup) mirrored into process_table,
optional kernel.ext.d incremental hot reload (BARE_OS_KERNEL_EXT_D_HOT_RELOAD)
with reload audit NDJSON, features proc for hyperblobs dedup and systemd
subset documentation, vault threat model doc plus posture fields for AEAD,
Pear enclave pointer, account rotation continuity, and Ed25519 consistency
across boot manifest / extensions / replication. Adds or extends tests and
keeps kernel/ and packages/bare-os-seeder/kernel/ in parity; guest init is
bundled from kernel/lib/init/init-main.js via bundle-kernel-init.
