- Add optional Holepunch clone lag gate (holepunch-freshness-gate.json, verify-holepunch-clone-freshness.mjs) and wire into pretest/docs. - Extend stock ctx.bareOsHrpcRequest with disk.os replication routes; bump hrpc_allowlist_sketch proc to schema 2 with stockRoutes list. - Security posture: blindRelayAudit; hyper_multisig_trust_pointer schema 2 + vault multisig continuity env; login/unlock audit hook. - Syscalls schema 9 alignment (JSON schema, compatibility matrix, conformance matrix clock_gettime); boot budget telemetry schema 2 in metrics_live. - Coreutils hostname -s/--short man/options; rebuild kernel bins/man. - POSIX + P2P dashboard section in docs/README; handbook/DOCUMENTATION/ release-checklist/OTA/KERNEL_CONTRACT/PEAR-RUN and related reference updates. - verify-boot-policy-extension-signer-pins: scan kernel init fragments. Note: vendor drift section removed from kernel/lib/bare/README.md (intentional).
bare-os-seeder
Pear / Bare application that owns the canonical system Hyperdrive: it walks a kernel tree on disk, writes /boot/init.js, /bin/*, /etc/* into the drive (no host temp dirs), builds a 512-byte MBR with the drive key, joins Hyperswarm on bare-os-v1, and serves MBR block reads + Protomux bare-os-v1 replication to peers.

Run
From package directory (after npm ci at repo root):
node index.js
Or with Bare/Pear:
npm run pear:dev
From repo root (recommended — fixes workspace node_modules for Pear):
npm run os:seeder
Environment
BARE_OS_KERNEL_ROOT— Absolute path to kernel tree to stage (default: packagekernel/vendored copy, or repokernel/under Nodefile:URL)BARE_OS_HOST_DATA— Base directory for host state (default~/.bare-os)BARE_OS_SEED_STORE— Corestore directory (default~/.bare-os/corestore/seeder)BARE_OS_SEED_CAPABILITY_ATTESTATION_JSON— Optional JSON string for seed RPCbare_os.capability_attestation(operators verify on host; guest does not crypto-verify)
