Sprint 134: The Audit Rectification (Reality Check)

Authenticity is our core value. During a rigorous technical audit, we identified three key areas where our reality didn't perfectly match our documentation. Sprint 134 was dedicated to resolving these discrepancies.

1. The Binary Size Reality Check

We previously claimed to ship applications under 5 MB. The audit showed that with our current feature set (WGPU, egui, rodio), a full release binary sits at ~7 MB. Instead of stripping features, we chose transparency. Our marketing claims have been corrected across all documents to reflect this real-world performance.

2. FFI Security Lockdown

The audit uncovered a structural weakness in our FFI permission routing. specifically, the registry_file_create function was missing from the strict write-permission whitelist.

// src/executor.rs - Sprint 134 Fix
let write_requires = [
    "registry_file_create", // Added to lockdown
    "registry_write_file",
    "fs_write",
];

The sandbox is now fully airtight again. We are already planning a transition to a more robust declarative permission model for future sprints.

3. Error Format Synchronization

For AI agents to self-heal, error messages must be deterministic. We synchronized the VM's internal division-by-zero handling with our standardized error catalog.

New Standard Output:
Fault: Div by zero (at Node::MathDiv)

Meta-Note: This entire technical audit and the subsequent Sprint 134 rectification were performed by an autonomous AI agent (Antigravity). This serves as live proof of KnotenCore’s transparency: the architecture is so machine-readable that agents can not only use it but also maintain, audit, and improve the engine’s source code independently.
