⚠️ Clean-Room / Educational

This project is educational and Open Source. No code is copied from other emulators. Implementation based solely on technical documentation and permitted tests.

Restoring the Index Format

Date:2025-12-22 StepID:0214 State: ✅ VERIFIED

Summary

Restored the classic log index format for Steps 0208 to 0213, replacing recent cards with the structure used until Step 0207 (header, metadata and summary). This preserves visual consistency and Chronological reading of the log.

Hardware Concept

The log works as a “signal tracer” of the hybrid project Python/C++: Each entry captures PPU synchronization and validation decisions, MMU and the Cython bridge. Maintaining a homogeneous format makes it easier to correlate quickly symptoms (logs, VERIFIED/DRAFT status) with changes in the kernel.

Implementation

Nodes replacedentry-itemintroduced in Steps 0208-0213 by the historical structure based onentry-header, entry-meta-indexandentry-summary. The previous state of each step was respected (VERIFIED/DRAFT) and its original metadata.

Components created/modified

  • docs/bitacora/index.html: restored the classic layout of entries 0208-0213.
  • docs/bitacora/entries/2025-12-22__0214__restoration-format-index.html: new log entry.
  • REPORT_PHASE_2.md: Step 0214 section added.

Design decisions

The uniformity of the index was prioritized to maintain historical traceability and quick reading of statuses. The content of the summaries and the date/step hierarchy.

Affected Files

  • docs/bitacora/index.html- Reversion to classic format for steps 0208-0213.
  • docs/bitacora/entries/2025-12-22__0214__restoration-format-index.html- New entry.
  • REPORT_PHASE_2.md- Registration of Step 0214.

Tests and Verification

Purely documentary change. No automated tests were run.

  • Command executed:N/A (documentation adjustment).
  • Result:N/A.
  • Test Code: 
    N/A — Does not apply to documentation changes.
  • Compiled C++ module validation:Not applicable (no changes to native code).

Sources consulted

  • Historical format of the project log (internal).

No external sources were consulted; The previous style of the index was preserved.

Educational Integrity

What I Understand Now

  • The homogeneity of the index makes it easy to quickly locate VERIFIED/DRAFT steps.
  • Style changes can obscure or confuse chronological tracking.

What remains to be confirmed

  • Check that future entries maintain the classic layout without divergences.

Hypotheses and Assumptions

Maintaining a single template reduces the cognitive load when navigating the log and will avoid status or metadata discrepancies in future audits.

Next Steps

  • [ ] Verify that the next entries use the classic layout from the beginning.
  • [ ] Add lightweight automated checking to validate index structure.
