M5 iteration 1 (spec ae905de, plan 22f02aa). Stands up the
workspace-excluded `ail-embed` crate:
- zero-dependency embedding core (`ail-embed/src/lib.rs`): extern "C"
to the M3-frozen ABI + frozen-layout State/Tick box helpers + a
Kernel price fold; the Rust port of the audited
crates/ail/tests/embed/tick_roundtrip.c. Raw pointers never escape
the type.
- build.rs (no in-repo precedent): AIL_BIN env override else nested
`cargo build -p ail` against the parent workspace (separate target
dir → no cargo-lock deadlock), `ail build --emit=staticlib`, link
directives.
- hermetic data-server smoke (ail-embed/tests/smoke.rs): synthetic
Pepperstone-format ZIP fixture via data-server's own public
RawTickRecord type → real DataServer → Kernel, bit-exact vs a
same-order host reference fold; runs with no /mnt.
- `ail-embed` is its own cargo workspace root (empty [workspace]
table); data-server is a dev-dependency only. Root Cargo.toml gains
only a 4-line non-membership comment.
Invariant 1 Boss-verified independently: full+no-deps cargo metadata
on the AILang workspace shows data-server count 0; git status path
filter empty (zero diff to crates/ailang-*, crates/ail/, runtime/,
examples/*.ail); src/lib.rs zero code-level data_server; AILang
cargo build --workspace still clean. ail-embed suite 2/2 green
(kernel_run_sums_prices unit RED-first + hermetic_smoke integration),
verified by me, not just the agent report.
Two toolchain-forced corrections to the plan's verbatim
ail-embed/Cargo.toml (added empty [workspace] table; sibling dev-dep
path ../libs -> ../../libs, manifest-relative) — confined to the
plan-created manifest, no acceptance gate altered, 0 review re-loops.
Journal Concerns records the planner-recon implication for the next
workspace-excluded-nested-crate plan. Adapter API + thread-swarm
deferred to M5 iter 2+ per spec/plan.
Includes the per-iter journal, stats, and the INDEX.md line.
