Embedded BIOS-like governance facade.
Experimental / WIP. This module compiles and runs on
std/alloctargets today. The fully heap-freeno_std(no-alloc) build is not yet functional: the recursive AST needs an arena/index representation before it can be built without a heap. Tracked as future work.
Zero-allocation, stack-only governance for bare-metal and RTOS targets. This is the “governance chip” concept: a tiny deterministic core that mediates all device capability access.
§Target footprint
| Component | Estimated Flash size |
|---|---|
| Unicode dict table | ~8 KB |
| Engine SWITCH logic | ~4 KB |
| AST (shallow only) | ~2 KB |
| Obligation table | ~16 KB (256 slots) |
| Total | ~30 KB |
Compare: a Python interpreter is ~8 MB. This is the 1/1000th figure.
