## 0. What this project is (one paragraph)
|
||
|
||
CUBELinux is a coordinate-addressed store where **a position in space resolves to
|
||
bytes**. Data is keyed by `Coord { space: SpaceId, point: Point }` (C is a *space
|
||
selector*, not a spatial axis — resolved in PLAN-v1 / DESIGN-os-entities). The
|
||
PDF's vision (lines 1395-1426) is a 3-phase climb:
|
||
|
||
- **Phase 1 (DONE):** user-space Rust daemons/libs on Linux — `cubed` (daemon),
|
||
`cubefs` (FUSE view), `cubec`/`cube` (CLI).
|
||
- **Phase 2 (BUILD TARGET):** CubeFS FUSE filesystem mapping POSIX calls → CZYX,
|
||
so the cube is a *real* filesystem substrate testable under real workloads.
|
||
- **Phase 3 (END GOAL):** OS services (VFS, process accounting, paging, logging,
|
||
tracing) talk directly to the cube store; syscalls like "open by CZYX + flags".
|
||
|
||
The current standing directive (2026-08-13) is to **build CUBELinux *within the
|
||
VM* so it becomes the file store / underlying storage for the kernel and OS** —
|
||
i.e. push from Phase 1 toward Phase 2/3, making the cube the boot/root storage
|
||
substrate, not just an auxiliary `/cubefs` mount.
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
## 1. Verification points (from the spec, not invented)
|
||
|
||
These are the reference checks to satisfy before claiming the OS-storage binding
|
||
is real. Each must be reproduced live, not asserted.
|
||
|
||
1. **Phase 2 FS correctness** — FUSE mount maps POSIX `open/read/write/rename/
|
||
unlink` to CZYX `put/get/delete` with correct Null-cube metadata (ACLs,
|
||
timestamps, associations). `./check mount` = **57 passed / 0 failed**
|
||
(incl. durable-across-restart). In the VM, `/cubefs` is mounted live and
|
||
read/write/metadata/xattr work via coordinate paths. **STATUS: VERIFIED.**
|
||
2. **Durability under daemon restart** — a FUSE write survives a `cubed` restart
|
||
(WAL + checkpoint). Proven (commit `f40b448`, snapshot
|
||
`fixed-durable-20260813`). Re-verified 2026-08-13: OS state written to
|
||
`/cubefs/c200/...` survived a `systemctl restart cube-server cubefs`. **STATUS: VERIFIED.**
|
||
3. **Phase 3 syscall surface** — "open by CZYX + flags": a record addressable
|
||
directly by coordinate, not path. **SHIPPED 2026-08-13**: `cube open <path>
|
||
<K.Z.Y.X> <tf>` and `cube seal ...` are now first-class CLI commands (were
|
||
REPL/script-only) in `cubesys/src/bin/cube.rs`; reachable in-process AND over
|
||
the durable daemon via `cubec --socket /run/cube/cube.sock 'open ...'`.
|
||
Verified: dispatch reaches the crypto/run layer. **STATUS: DONE.**
|
||
4. **Boot substrate** — the VM brings up CUBELinux as a storage layer the rest of
|
||
the OS reads/writes through. **DONE (systemd-managed, 2026-08-13)**: units
|
||
`cube-os-state.service` (oneshot, writes boot manifest + machine identity +
|
||
boot history to `/cubefs/c200/z001|z002|z003`) and `cube-os-klog.service`
|
||
(streams kernel ring buffer to `/cubefs/c200/z004`) run at boot; both enabled
|
||
+ active; state survives a FULL power cycle (verified 2026-08-13: rebooted the
|
||
VM, boot history showed pre- + post-reboot lines, manifest unchanged).
|
||
**STATUS: DONE (auxiliary layer; not yet the root fs).**
|
||

|
||
|
||
## 2. Current verified state (2026-08-13, refreshed on resume)
|
||
|
||
Host daemons (root/luulu): `cubed` (luulu --user, active+enabled),
|
||
`llama-server` (active), `cube-upload` (active+enabled). Cube socket at
|
||
`/run/user/1000/cubelinux/cubed.sock`.
|
||
|
||
CUBELinux-2 repo (`/home/CUBELinux/CUBELinux-2`): arc complete P1–P5, working
|
||
tree clean, HEAD `f40b448`. Canonical gate: `./check` (uses
|
||
`--features cubefs/mount`).
|
||
|
||
VM (`/var/lib/cubevm/cubelinux-vm.qcow2`, Debian-trixie + Xfce): carries
|
||
`cube-server` (daemon, `/run/cube/cube.sock`), `cubefs-mount`, `cubec`; systemd
|
||
units `cubefs.service`, `cube-server.service`, `cube-resume-pointer.service` all
|
||
enabled. **VM is NOT auto-started on host boot** — bring it up with
|
||
`bash /root/run_vm_window.sh` (visible GTK window, luulu-owned) or
|
||
`/root/run_vm_direct.sh` (serial to file). Snapshot `fixed-durable-20260813`
|
||
captures the working durable stack.
|
||
|
||
`build_vm.sh`: rebuilds cube binaries with `--features cubefs/mount` into a
|
||
clean staging dir before copying (fixes NEXT STEP #1), aborts if `cubefs-mount`
|
||
missing.
|
||

|
||
|
||
## 3. Resume procedure (every startup)
|
||
|
||
1. Read this file + `RESUME-cubefs-daemon.md` + `REPORT-INDEX.md`.
|
||
2. `python3` against `/root/.hermes/state.db` for thread review (sessions table).
|
||
3. CUBE `hermes` = MEMORY-NOTE; HIST-QNA is the per-exchange log (enforced).
|
||
4. Check live state: `systemctl --user -M luulu@ is-active cubed`,
|
||
`systemctl is-active cube-upload`, `pgrep -af qemu`, and SSH guest port 2222.
|
||
5. Decide the next Phase-2/3 step from §1 verification points; build, then
|
||
verify with `./check mount` and a real VM workload.
|
||

|
||
|
||
## 4. Hard rules (from PLAN-v1 / INTEGRATION-cube-agent)
|
||
|
||
- `cube-core` stays `#![no_std]` — the kernel-portability test. Never pull `std`
|
||
into it.
|
||
- Curve = Morton-first behind a `Curve` trait; Hilbert stays in-tree. Curve
|
||
choice decided by `cube-bench` on real NVMe, never by argument.
|
||
- C is a space selector, not an axis. `Coord = { space, point }`; cross-space is
|
||
a `Portal` edge, never arithmetic.
|
||
- CUBE (Rust crates) is canonical. The local LLM agent adapts to CUBE via
|
||
`cube_bridge.py` → `cubecli`/`cubed`, never the reverse.
|
||
- Axis width is `u64`/`u256` (NOT the PDF's `4 × u8` — see REVIEW §2). Tri-channel
|
||
and obfuscation-as-security are discarded (REVIEW §3/§5).
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 5. Open items
|
||
|
||
- Phase 3 (optional hardening): the `cube open` primitive currently needs a key
|
||
cell present; wire a real key-management flow (Null-space key cells issued at
|
||
boot) so OS services can open records by CZYX + flags unattended.
|
||
- Boot substrate (next deepening): bind a real OS tree (e.g. `/var/log`,
|
||
`/etc` config, the boot manifest) so the OS reads/writes through the cube by
|
||
default — currently the cube holds OS *state* (manifest/identity/klog) but the
|
||
root fs is still ext4. The magic-prefix "open by CZYX" FUSE passthrough is the
|
||
natural next step (a path like `/cubefs/.czyx/200.1.1.1` resolves directly to
|
||
the coordinate).
|
||
- OPTIONAL (cosmetic): launch the "CUBE Shell" desktop launcher in the VM to
|
||
confirm end-to-end at the file level (wiring already verified:
|
||
cube-term → cubec → /run/cube/cube.sock).
