nx_forge.nx

nx_forge.nx -- FORGE F3 rung 1: the autonomous-coding DRIVER core (pure lib, no main; CLI = nx_forge_run, gate = nx_forge_gate). Runs one task spec through the full harness loop: spec -> candidate source -> literal-ban check (anti-hardcode, pre-build) -> write runtime/<organ>.nx -> sovereign lane --build-only (fork+execve, verbatim compiler output banked to the repair context on failure) -> run the built elf with stdout captured -> BYTE-EXACT judge vs expected bytes -> bounded repair cycles (ACT cap 7) -> append-only FORGE LEDGER row (knowledge/forge/forge_ledger.txt -- every GREEN = a compile-verified training example, the N7 hook). Rung 1 backend = candidate FILES (the gate's fixture model); rung 2 plugs model calls (:11434 local serve + Claude API) into the same loop -- the judge/repair mechanics are identical and are what this rung proves. Spec row: FTASK|<organ>|<expect-bytes-file>|<ban-csv-or-none>|<cand1,cand2,...>|<maxcycles> fg_run returns: >0 success-at-cycle-N; -2 spec unreadable; -3 no FTASK row; -4 expect unreadable; -20 candidates exhausted; -21 max-cycles hit; -22 bad organ name. license_tier: ORIGINAL
