Adds `crucible nwsync emit` and `crucible nwsync assemble`, the split replacement for upstream nwn_nwsync_write, which cannot be used because it wants every hak, the TLK and the module present in one run on one disk. emit explodes one artifact — a .hak/.erf or a loose file such as the TLK — into NWSync blobs (NWCompressedBuffer framing, magic NSYC, zstd) plus a NSYM v3 manifest describing only that artifact, with the same .json sidecar upstream writes. Blob names are the sha1 of the uncompressed bytes, restypes nss/ndb/gic are always skipped, an unresolvable restype is a hard error, a resource over 15 MB fails closed, and no latest or .origin file is ever written. assemble merges the per-artifact manifests into one, reading no bulk data. The merge rule is resref shadowing, not concatenation: a resref present in more than one artifact resolves to the earliest artifact in --order, the way the game resolves it. It refuses to merge across mismatched emitter versions, and takes --group-id from the caller (1 current, 2 testing; 0 is absent). Refs #53.

sow-tools — Crucible
Crucible is the Shadows Over Westgate build/conversion/sync toolchain: one Go
module producing several small binaries plus a crucible dispatcher (D11). It is
the only repo that owns builder logic; the artifact repos (sow-module,
sow-topdata, sow-assets-manifest) invoke Crucible through wrapper scripts and
never embed a toolkit.
Repos produce artifacts. sow-platform deploys artifacts.
Crucible is how the artifact repos turn source into artifacts.

The dispatcher and the standalone shims share one registry
(internal/dispatch); the shims exist so consumer wrapper scripts can resolve a
single-token command. The full legacy nwn-tool command surface and where each
command lands is mapped in docs/command-surface.md.
Status (cutover performed)
The internal app/pipeline/project/erf/gff/topdata/changelog/
validator packages from gitea/sow-tools have been migrated into this tree, and
the module, topdata, hak, and wiki builders now delegate to the migrated
nwn-tool command surface (mapped in
docs/command-surface.md). config and changelog
are global commands on the dispatcher. depot has no migrated logic yet, so it
keeps the fail-closed path: exit 70, never a faked artifact.
See docs/migration-from-nwn-tool.md for what
was done and what remains (the consumer --manifest/--source/--out flag contract
is the open Phase-6 item).
Quick start (no Nix)
Teammates without Nix don't build anything — they run the bootstrap wrapper,
which downloads the latest released crucible for your OS and runs it:
./crucible # interactive menu (pick a command)
./crucible module build
./crucible topdata validate
Windows (PowerShell):
.\crucible.ps1 module build
The binary is cached under ~/.cache/crucible/<version>/ (%LOCALAPPDATA%\crucible
on Windows); --repo-local caches inside the repo instead. Private releases:
set CRUCIBLE_TOKEN or write the token to ~/.config/crucible/token.
Develop
Self-contained (D8) — a host with only Nix can run everything:
nix develop # Go + shellcheck + yamllint + make
make check # go vet + go test + shellcheck + yamllint
make build # build every cmd/* into ./bin (gitignored)
make smoke # build + assert the fail-closed contract
Binaries are never committed — they are CI artifacts (D19).
This retires the old habit of checking in nwn-tool / sow-toolkit.
CI
PR-first (D7): checks run once on pull requests; the only publish event is a
v* tag (see runbooks/ci-trigger-standard.md in sow-docs,
https://git.westgate.pw/ShadowsOverWestgate/sow-docs).
ci.yml— vet, test, shellcheck, yamllint, binary smoke, and cross-build all targets once per pull request.build-binaries.yml— on av*tag, cross-build and upload the binaries,SHA256SUMS, and the wrappers to the Gitea release, then delete the assets of every release except the newest two — Gitea keeps them forever otherwise, and every binary is reproducible from its tag.sync-wrappers.yml— on amainpush that toucheswrappers/, auto-PR the canonical wrappers to the consumer repos inwrappers/consumers.txt. Consumer drift checks run after those PRs merge tomain, not on the PRs themselves, to avoid recursive cross-repo checks.
Consumers
How the artifact repos resolve a Crucible binary is
documented in docs/consumer-contract.md.
