# Sorcery-Go — The Sovereign Coven

**Sorcery-Go is an independent project developed by dcos.net. It is not
produced by, affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Source Mage
GNU/Linux or sourcemage.org in any official capacity.**

Sorcery-Go is a high-concurrency, source-based infrastructure management
suite. It implements a spell format compatible with Source Mage GNU/Linux
grimoires for convenience, but the two projects have separate maintainers,
separate codebases, and separate governance.

It organizes independent Linux Sanctums (LXC containers or bare-metal hosts)
into a unified Coven, connected by firewall-isolated Ley-Lines. Every spell
cast through the Cauldron is sealed as a content-addressable Essence inside the
Tomb, defended by the Warding, and audited by the Legal Sentinel.

## Core Components

| Component        | Role                                    | Modern Upgrade                                           |
|------------------|-----------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------|
| The Cauldron     | Build engine that boils source to bins  | High-concurrency Go + OverlayFS sandboxes                 |

## Security Model

Sorcery-Go uses a **firewall-first security architecture**. Transport security
is delegated to the network boundary (OPNsense / IPFire). There is no
application-layer TLS or mTLS — no certificate management, no key rotation,
no CRL propagation. The defense-in-depth model relies on:

1. **eBPF LSM (Tomb Guard)** — in-kernel enforcement blocking writes to the Tomb
2. **eBPF cgroup filters** — device and network control
3. **Network firewall** — OPNsense / IPFire isolating the Coven
4. **Per-process filtering** — OpenSnitch or Portmaster
5. **Content-addressing** — Merkle root + per-blob hashing for integrity
6. **Quarantine** — cgroup freezer for containment

All `crypto/rand`, `crypto/tls`, and `crypto/x509` code has been removed.
Task IDs are generated deterministically using atomic counters and nanosecond
timestamps.

## Quick Start

### Drop into an existing Source Mage-compatible chroot

If you have a Source Mage chroot with a modern toolchain (GCC 12+, glibc 2.35+):

```bash
make build
sudo make drop-in                        # installs to /usr/local/sbin/sorcery-go
sudo sorcery-go cast busybox --static --default
sorcery-go gaze install busybox
sudo sorcery-go web --port 8080
```

Full guide: [docs/INSTALL.md](docs/INSTALL.md)

### Resurrect an old Source Mage tarball (0.62-11 / 0.63 test)

The 8-phase staging pipeline in `scripts/smgl-getting-started.sh` walks you
through purging GRUB 1, injecting a modern kernel, swapping to the live test
grimoire, step-upgrading the toolchain ladder, and dropping in sorcery-go.
Note: Source Mage tarballs are produced by the Source Mage project at
sourcemage.org. Sorcery-Go can use them but is not affiliated with that
project.

## BTC.sh Cross-Compilation Integration

Sorcery-Go integrates with BTC.sh for multi-architecture cross-compilation via
`pkg/toolchain/btc.go`. The integration probes for golden images, parses
manifest JSON sidecars, and configures build environments for 19 supported
targets:

| Family           | Targets                                                        | ISA Tiers        |
|------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------|------------------|
| Intel HEDT/Server| haswell, haswell-ep, skylake, skylake-x, skylake-server       | AVX2, AVX512     |
| AMD Ryzen/EPYC   | znver1, znver2, znver3, znver4                                 | AVX2, AVX512     |
| AMD APU          | apu-zn1, apu-zn2, apu-zn3, apu-zn4                             | AVX2             |
| Intel Atom       | atom-silvermont, atom-goldmont, atom-tremont, atom-sierraforest| SSE4_2           |
| Embedded         | mipselr2, armv7, tilegx                                        | MIPS32, NEON, TILE|
