Anthropic now reserves /plan as a UI command, so the Skill tool refuses to
dispatch it. Rename the project's plan skill to planner, update the symlink
under .claude/skills/, and adjust references in CLAUDE.md, DESIGN.md,
skills/README.md, and the cross-references between brainstorm / implement /
audit / fieldtest / fieldtester. Plan files themselves (docs/plans/*.md)
keep their name — only the skill ID changes.
Three coupled changes to /implement:
- Boss-context offload via single subagent dispatch (target ~100x reduction)
- Iter isolation via branches (eliminates parallel-implementer conflicts)
- Per-iter journals under docs/journals/ replacing the JOURNAL.md monolith
JOURNAL.md becomes docs/journal-archive.md at acceptance time. Workers
stay at Opus 4.7; saving comes from token-volume relocation only.
Three classes of fix from the LLVM-IR audit:
1. != on Float: fcmp une, NOT fcmp one. one is 'ordered and not
equal' (false for nan!=nan, breaks IEEE / user-fixed constraint).
une is 'unordered or not equal' (true for nan!=nan, matches IEEE
and Rust f64::ne).
2. crates/ailang-codegen/src/synth.rs touches the Float primitive at
five sites the original spec missed: llvm_type, builtin_ail_type,
builtin_effect_op_ret, type_descriptor (descriptor 'Fl' to avoid
collision with ADT-name F-prefix), builtin_binop (becomes a
transitional artefact, replaced by type-dispatched helper).
3. Float literals lower as LLVM hex-float syntax (double 0x4014...);
nan/inf/neg_inf as direct SSA double constants at use site (NOT
via the __unreachable__ analogue, which is a terminator
instruction not a value); container slot layout precision
(monomorphisation vs bitcast).
Mainstream-aligns the Float surface: + - * / < <= > >= become
forall-quantified with codegen-dispatch on Int|Float (parallel to
today's == path), instead of the original draft's wort-style
fadd/flt/etc. Adds nan/inf/neg_inf as builtin constants and
is_nan : (Float) -> Bool. % stays Int-only (no fmod yet).
Iteration plan now flags iter 3 and iter 4 as widening passes
that must hold the no-Int-regression line.
User feedback after first draft:
- family/iter not standard terms — milestone/iteration adopted
- ailang-docwriter folded into audit/ rather than left orphan
- explicit "Core rules adopted from Superpowers" section so each
inherited Iron Law is named at the spec level, not just implied
Five-skill pipeline (brainstorm, plan, implement, audit, debug) under
skills/, emitting durable artefacts to docs/specs/ and docs/plans/.
Codifies discipline currently spread across CLAUDE.md (TDD-for-bugs,
mandatory tidy-iter, bench-regression rules, feature acceptance) into
trigger-bound skills. Existing per-iter workflow preserved; the layer
formalises the pre-iter design step and the iter handoff contract.
Bootstrap spec — defines the system that future specs will pass through.
