Marco Allegretti c7ad2116a0 feat(appd): add weft-appd skeleton crate and service unit
New crate implementing the application daemon entry point:
- crates/weft-appd/Cargo.toml: tokio (current-thread runtime), anyhow,
  sd-notify, tracing dependencies
- crates/weft-appd/src/main.rs: async run() resolves IPC socket path
  from WEFT_APPD_SOCKET or XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/weft/appd.sock; stubs for
  AppRegistry, IpcServer, CompositorClient, RuntimeSupervisor,
  CapabilityBroker, ResourceController per WEFT-OS-APPD-DESIGN.md;
  sd_notify(READY=1) to be sent after IpcServer bind + CompositorClient
  connect
- infra/systemd/weft-appd.service: Type=notify, Requires+After
  weft-compositor.service, After servo-shell.service

Also fix two winit backend issues that were present in the working tree:
- remove spurious mut on display binding (never mutated after init)
- wrap std::env::set_var in unsafe block (required since Rust 1.80)

WEFT OS

WEFT OS is a Linux-based operating system effort built around a Smithay compositor, a Servo-rendered system shell, and a Wasmtime-based application runtime.

Current repository scope

This repository currently contains:

  • the baseline Rust workspace
  • public engineering documentation derived from the authoritative blueprint
  • initial design documents for the shell protocol boundary and the WasmServo channel
  • local and CI validation paths for repository bootstrap work

It does not yet contain a compositor, shell, or application runtime implementation.

Source of truth

The authoritative technical reference for this repository is docu_dev/WEFT-OS-COMPREHENSIVE-BLUEPRINT.md.

Historical blueprint documents exist in docu_dev/, but they are not implementation authority where they conflict with the comprehensive blueprint.

Privacy boundary

docu_dev/ is a private coordination area used during development. It is intentionally ignored by git and is not part of the tracked public repository surface.

Development model

  • Primary development host: Windows workstation
  • Primary runtime target: Linux VM or QEMU guest
  • Core system language: Rust

Validation

On Windows PowerShell:

./infra/scripts/check.ps1

On Linux:

./infra/scripts/check.sh
