Separate tracked source from generated artifacts so the repo root stops accumulating helper scripts, manifests, and local runtime outputs.
Move manual shell entrypoints under scripts/, manifests under config/, and the Firecracker API reference under docs/reference/. Make build and runtimebundle now target build/bin, build/runtime, and build/dist as the canonical source-checkout paths.
Update runtime discovery, helper scripts, tests, and docs to follow the new layout while keeping legacy source-checkout runtime fallbacks for existing local bundles during migration.
Validated with bash -n on the moved scripts, make build, and GOCACHE=/tmp/banger-gocache go test ./....
Stop relying on ad hoc rootfs handling by adding image promotion, managed work-seed fingerprint metadata, and lazy self-healing for older managed images after the first create.
Rebuild guest images with baked SSH access, a guest NIC bootstrap, and default opencode services, and add the staged Void kernel/initramfs/modules workflow so void-exp uses a matching Void boot stack.
Replace the opaque blocking vm.create RPC with a begin/status flow that prints live stages in the CLI while still waiting for vsock health and opencode on guest port 4096.
Validate with GOCACHE=/tmp/banger-gocache go test ./... and live void-exp create/delete smoke runs.
