Tier 1 System Sentinels

These scripts are manifest-driven wrappers around dedicated Tier 1 kitchen sentinels. They are intended to catch broad system regressions quickly without pulling in full driver corpora, cross-provisioning, VM, ecosystem, libc, or release suites.

Each wrapper redirects command output into build/test/tier1/logs/system/<area>/ and prints the log path. On failure it tails the captured log.

Coverage

• tools.sh runs one kitchen fixture over the byte utilities, archive tools, object inspection/transformation tools, cpio, compression, disassembly, machine-code assembly, and image emission.
• driver-kitchen.sh runs one multitool dispatch fixture over cc, check, cpp, as, ld, run, install, nm, size, and addr2line.
• runtime-headers.sh runs test-rt-headers for the triples listed in manifests/system/runtime-headers.txt, then checks that every requested smoke object was produced.
• debug-dwarf.sh runs DWARF reader and debug producer unit targets, one committed objdump --dwarf golden, the lightweight kit dbg help transcript, and a single addr2line/symbolize backtrace lane.
• dist.sh runs one CAS/package fixture covering tree add/verify/materialize, tar.gz verification, kpkg create/inspect/verify/unpack, and one tamper rejection.
• test-t1-wasm also runs the driver Wasm sandbox fixture, covering the supported WASI Preview1 import subset and unsupported-import diagnostics.

Deferred

The intentionally deferred suites are the heavier runtime execution sweep (test-rt-runtime), full debugger transcript matrix (test-dbg), self-distribution/update flow (test-selfdist), release artifact smoke, libc containers, ecosystem builds, and port/selfhost/cross-provisioning.
