🧠 skernel

Official Build & Bootstrap Tool for the Super-Kernel Framework

Build with consistency, execute with determinism, eliminate chaos.
skernel is the official build and bootstrap tool for the Super-Kernel framework.

---

🧩 Introduction

skernel is the dedicated build and bootstrap tool for the Super-Kernel framework, designed to:

• Unify execution forms – every execution must originate from a build artifact.
• Enforce strict development discipline – purely OOP / AOP, no procedural code.
• Eliminate runtime uncertainty – all logic is resolved during the build phase.

It generates:

• ⚙️ Executable PHP binaries
• 📦 PHAR archives

---

🧭 Core Principles

• No runtime code generation
  All logic and metadata must be finalized at build time. Runtime code creation or modification is forbidden.

• OOP / AOP oriented
  Only object-oriented and aspect-oriented design is allowed. Procedural logic and global states are prohibited.

• Unified bootstrap flow
  Every execution must pass through the skernel bootstrap process.
  Manual control over entrypoints, configurations, or loaders is disallowed.

• Strict PHP configuration boundaries
  PHP behaviors must be configured via php.ini.
  Any runtime configuration changes (ini_set(), error_reporting(), etc.) are considered violations.

• Super-Kernel exclusive support
  skernel performs automatic classmap scanning, annotation collection, AOP weaving, loader generation, and build integrity verification during build time.

• Annotation stripping & trace optimization
  All annotations are removed from build outputs to minimize size and improve performance.
  Exceptions and logs trace class names, not file paths.

⚙️ Features

Feature	Description
🧱 Unified Build Output	Build executable binaries and PHAR archives
🔗 Automatic Bootstrap	Generate unified entrypoint and loader
🧭 AOP Support	Automatic annotation scanning and aspect weaving
🪶 Annotation Stripping	Reduce size and improve execution speed
💥 Configuration Isolation	All settings are managed through php.ini
🧩 Classmap & Dependency Graph	Automatically generate class diagrams and dependency indexes
🛡 Secure & Controlled	Prevent runtime code injection and configuration changes

⚡ Performance Optimizations

• Significant performance improvements in build phase
• Reduced PHAR memory usage
• Parallelized classmap and scanning mechanisms
• Fault-tolerant build pipeline — continues even on non-critical errors

🧰 Installation

Install from GitHub Releases

Visit:

👉 wheakerd/skernel - Releases

Download the binary that matches your architecture (e.g. skernel-x86_64 or skernel-aarch64), then run:

chmod +x skernel
sudo mv skernel /usr/local/bin/

Verify installation:

skernel

📢 Example

build Builds a binary or PHAR archive.

Usage:
  build [options]

Options:
      --disable-binary  Disable binary build, only build the PHAR archive.
      --dev             Use `require-dev` requirements from `composer.json`.
      --debug           Enable debug mode for detailed logs.

💡 Philosophy

“Above the framework, there shall be no chaos.”

skernel is not merely a build tool — it is the guardian of the Super-Kernel worldview.

It rejects dynamics and uncertainty, leaving behind a reproducible, verifiable, and deterministic runtime.

Any logic not permitted by the build artifact is beyond the boundary.
