workflow: replace docs/roadmap.md with Gitea issue backlog
The forward queue moves out of the in-tree markdown file and into Gitea issues at http://192.168.178.103:3000/Brummel/AILang/issues. Labels: kind:{milestone,feature,todo,idea} + prio:{p1,p2,p3} + state:in-progress. Big chunks live as Gitea milestones (containers) with full prose in the description; smaller items are standalone issues. Browse-and-filter scales constant against growing item count; the previous markdown file was 1059 lines, of which ~850 were already-closed-entry verlauf (the same failure class the JOURNAL cut removed). Sync-drift Code<>Tracker mitigation: Soft-convention `closes #N` / `refs #N` in commit bodies — Gitea auto-closes the issue on push. Captured in user-level CLAUDE.md (~/.claude/CLAUDE.md, not in this commit) as the durable rule; no hook enforcement. In-repo changes: - docs/roadmap.md deleted. - CLAUDE.md (project): Code-layout drops roadmap; /boss gating retargeted; Roles section rewritten with a new "Gitea issues" bullet (URL + tea-CLI snippet) and the closes-#N trailer note. - skills/boss/SKILL.md: 10 sites retargeted, plus Step 1 now prescribes `tea issues ls --labels prio:p1` as the queue read. - skills/brainstorm/SKILL.md: Step 7.5 no-override BLOCK now files a Gitea issue via `tea issues create` instead of appending a roadmap entry; spec deletion stays. - skills/audit/SKILL.md + ailang-architect.md: deferral requirement and debt-heuristic retargeted; forward-intent belongs in the Gitea backlog. - skills/fieldtest/SKILL.md, skills/docwriter/SKILL.md + ailang-docwriter.md: roadmap → backlog. - design/contracts/honesty-rule.md: forward intent lives in the Gitea backlog (pinned phrases unchanged). - design/INDEX.md: Docs bullet drops roadmap, adds the backlog URL. - crates/ailang-core/tests/docs_honesty_pin.rs: two assert messages retargeted (assertion bodies unchanged). - bench/architect_sweeps.sh: Sweep-4 TABU extended with `docs/roadmap\.md` so the deleted path cannot quietly regrow as a cross-reference in design/contracts/. Verification: - cargo build --workspace clean. - cargo test --workspace: 647 passed, 0 failed, 2 ignored. - bench/architect_sweeps.sh exit 0 (all five sweeps clean, incl. new TABU). - grep over the live tree (excluding docs/specs/, docs/plans/) shows zero residual docs/roadmap.md refs. Not touched: ~55 historical files under docs/specs/ and docs/plans/ that mention docs/roadmap.md. Snapshot-character, analogous to the JOURNAL-cut precedent — historical specs are not mass-edited just because a live file was retired; their mentions were correct at write time. |

workflow: scrub residual JOURNAL/journal refs missed in the first sweep
A re-grep found 15 live references (excluding docs/specs/ and
docs/plans/, which stay historical) the previous two commits
missed — all in source comments, doctests, bench helpers, and one
agent file.
Per-file:
- crates/ail/src/main.rs: typeclass-coherence diagnostic comment
pointed at "the JOURNAL queue's wording" — points at
design/contracts/typeclasses.md alone.
- crates/ailang-prose/src/lib.rs: `//!` header referred to
docs/JOURNAL.md "Pinned: human-readable prose surface" —
retargeted to design/contracts/authoring-surface.md.
- crates/ailang-check/src/lib.rs: bugfix tag + "see iter
method-dispatch-refactor journal" prose collapsed to a clean
rationale paragraph; the canonical shape is stated inline.
- crates/ailang-surface/tests/prelude_decouple_carve_out_pin.rs:
"(d) record the rationale in a per-iter journal" →
"(d) record the rationale in the commit body".
- crates/ailang-surface/tests/prelude_module_hash_pin.rs: header
collapsed (pd.2/pd.3 milestone narrative dropped — the test's
purpose is self-evident from its body); both "per-iter journal"
drift-instructions point at the commit body.
- runtime/rc.c: "bench numbers in JOURNAL 18f.2" →
"original profiling bench numbers".
- bench/run.sh: two "JOURNAL entry" comments → "commit body".
- bench/architect_sweeps.sh: header rewritten (cross-ref to the
design-md-consolidation milestone commits, not a JOURNAL entry).
Sweep-4 extended with two new anti-regrowth phrases
("see the per-iter journal", "in a per-iter journal") so journal
prose can't grow back into design/contracts/ silently.
- skills/audit/agents/ailang-architect.md: "unlike a journal it
lives on main" → "since it lives on main".
- ail-embed/src/bin/timeshard_runner.rs: "records it in the
close-out journal" → "prints it to stderr".
- ail-embed/tests/timeshard.rs: two "journal-only friction timing"
→ "stderr-only friction timing".
Verification (after the edit):
- `grep -rin '\bjournal\b'` against live tree returns exactly two
hits: the Sweep-4 regex itself (intentional — TABU phrases that
prevent regrowth) and the PHRASES array in design_index_pin.rs
(intentional — the same regrowth guard at test level). Both are
load-bearing negative assertions.
- `bash bench/architect_sweeps.sh` exits 0 ("All five sweeps
clean") — no design/-side regrowth.
- `cargo build --workspace` green; `cargo test --workspace` green.

iter design-ledger-formal-links.1 (DONE 5/5): clause-5 hard gate + 7 prose-ref conversions + 2 disposition-(b) homeless removals + honesty-rule positive-half (whole milestone in one iter)
Positive-half completion of the DESIGN.md -> design/ split: design/
body cross-references are now formal, file-relative Markdown links
into the durable tier (design/ or source), and a new in-tree hard
gate (design_index_pin.rs clause-5,
design_body_links_are_durable_and_resolve) walks every
design/contracts/*.md + design/models/*.md, strips fenced code
(strip_fences toggles on ```/~~~ lines so a ]( inside a fence is not
treated as a link), extracts every ](path), and asserts the target
resolves file-relative to a real file under design/-or-crates/-or-
runtime/; never docs/, never an in-file #anchor.
RED-first via identity-stubbed strip_fences (four embedded synthetic
vectors -- first one FAILS); replacing the stub with the real
toggle-on-fence impl turns the test GREEN. clause-5 composes with
clause-3 into the complete invariant the milestone establishes:
every contract cross-reference is EITHER a resolving durable
file-link OR clause-3-forbidden decision-record prose.
Conversions (recon-and-corpus-verified closed set):
Task 2 (7 prose refs, 8 link tokens):
float-semantics.md:69 Prelude classes -> [..](typeclasses.md)
float-semantics.md:100 bare-path -> [Str ABI](str-abi.md)
embedding-abi.md:45 "Frozen value layout" -> [..](frozen-value-layout.md) (drop stale "below")
memory-model.md:44 Data model -> [..](data-model.md)
memory-model.md:105-106 Method dispatch -> [..](typeclasses.md) (drop stale "below"; the target heading lives in typeclasses.md:227, not in this file)
scope-boundaries.md:48 Str ABI -> [..](str-abi.md)
scope-boundaries.md:88 mixed split: ailang-core::desugar -> source link + Pipeline -> ../models/pipeline.md (drop stale "above")
Task 3 (2 disposition-(b) homeless removals):
pipeline.md:60-61 (see docs/PROSE_ROUNDTRIP.md) pointer removed, CLI prose preserved
authoring-surface.md:178-181 cross-tier pointer clause removed, ail merge-prose sentence preserved
Task 4: honesty-rule.md positive-half paragraph inserted between L14 and the existing L15-blank-L16; both docs_honesty_pin.rs-pinned phrases byte-identical at L14/L19 (now shifted to L19 -> L25 by the +6 lines).
Out of scope, preserved (asserted independently): every intra-file
"above/below"; embedding-abi.md:51 "frozen value layout below
specifies" (no quoted title, no (see) form); data-model.md
38/66/79/206/226 (in-fence ```jsonc schema annotations -- the inline
analog of the nominal-mention carve-out). INDEX.md and the
decision-records journal byte-unchanged; clauses 1-4 of
design_index_pin.rs source byte-unchanged (the only `-` lines in
the diff are the two-line //! header rewrite Task 1 Step 5 itself
delivers).
Boss-verified independently (not on agent report alone):
cargo test --workspace 647 passed / 0 failed
(+1 vs pre-milestone 646:
the new clause-5)
cargo test --test design_index_pin 5 / 5 passed
cargo test --test docs_honesty_pin 5 / 5 passed (additive
paragraph is pin-safe)
grep ](.../docs/.../) under design/ zero
grep ](#) under design/ zero
](-link count under design/ 8 (closed convert-set)
git diff --quiet design/INDEX.md ok
git diff --quiet decision-records ok
embedding-abi.md:48 pinned phrase byte-identical
One Concerns item: Task-5 Step-7's plan-predicted "`-` line count = 1"
was actually 2 because Task 1 Step 5 rewrote the //! header 5 -> 8
lines (removing the original L4 + L5, not just L5). Planner self-
review-item-8 miss on my part -- a verification-arithmetic error in
the plan, NOT an implementation defect. The substantive assertion
(clauses 1-4 source byte-unchanged) is fully satisfied; the
implementer correctly flagged it and proceeded. The plan stands as
written; the assertion's `1` should have been `2`. Lesson noted for
future header-rewrite tasks.
Spec: docs/specs/2026-05-19-design-ledger-formal-links.md
(grounding-check PASS x3 across two corpus-grounded amendments --
clause-6 + cross-ref definition; clause-5 fence-skip + closed
convert-set enumeration).
Next: mandatory milestone-close audit (no fieldtest -- zero
authoring-surface change, reasoned exclusion).

iter design-md-rolesplit.tidy (DONE 7/7): resolve milestone-close audit drift
Gate-first TDD: widened design_index_pin.rs clause-3 to a hand-rolled
FAITHFUL Sweep-1 superset (case-sensitive digit-anchored line anchors
+ Sweep-1's ^[^/]* path-excluded date + the audit-named
decision-record phrases, case-insensitive); no regex dep; the blanket
iter-detector rejected as unworkable. Sentence-level strip of
faithfully-migrated history/decision-record prose out of 5 contract
files (the audit's 3 spot-checked + roundtrip-invariant.md +
data-model.md the exhaustive scan found) into the decision-record
journal, each replaced by its present-tense contract equivalent;
float-semantics.md stale 'see Str ABI below' -> str-abi.md;
architect_sweeps honesty sweeps re-scoped to design/contracts only
(models/ is the narrative tier) + ailang-architect.md lockstep.
Invariant: clause-3 GREEN => Sweep-1 clean in contracts/.
The prior dispatch correctly BLOCKED on a real plan defect (iso_date
lacked Sweep-1's path-exclusion, over-firing on legit
docs/specs/2026-.. citations); per the two+-defects-in-one-iteration
discipline the audit Resolution mechanism+scope were corrected

iter design-md-rolesplit.1 (DONE 9/9): DESIGN.md -> design/ ledger role-split
The 3020-line docs/DESIGN.md is replaced by the design/ ledger:
design/INDEX.md (sole addressable spine, typed Contracts+Models tables,
polymorphic links — prose file OR authoritative source //!), 14
design/contracts/*.md test-linked invariants + 3 source-link-only
contracts (mangling/env-construction/qualified-xref, no prose file —
code is SoT), 5 design/models/*.md whitepapers, and
docs/journals/2026-05-19-design-decision-records.md (the
relitigation-guard archive — every why/rejected/does-not-do/rollback/
empirical ### moved out at ###-granularity). Clean cut: git rm
docs/DESIGN.md, no stub.
RED-first crates/ailang-core/tests/design_index_pin.rs — the 4-clause
anti-regrowth spine (DESIGN.md-gone / every-INDEX-link-resolves /
every-contract-names-a-resolvable-ratifier /
contracts-carry-no-decision-record-prose) — demonstrably RED before,
GREEN after. Build-atomic by task ordering: design_schema_drift.rs's
include_str! (the only compile-time consumer) retargeted to
design/contracts/data-model.md BEFORE the deletion; its
## Data model/## Pipeline slicer dropped (a simplification the split
enables). 2 NoInstance diagnostics + 2 lockstep E2Es retargeted to
design/contracts/{float-semantics,typeclasses}.md. ~12 agent reading
lists + 5 SKILL bodies + CLAUDE.md + skills/README.md + ~25
code/C/.ail/spec comment xrefs retargeted; OQ7 dangling 'Iter 13b'
cite deleted (no forward target — a pointer would be fiction).
honesty-rule.md rewritten so the rule names the new home
(rationale->journals), resolving the recon-found internal
contradiction; the two docs_honesty_pin.rs:70,72 pinned phrases kept
verbatim+contiguous.
Boss-verified independently: cargo test --workspace 646 passed /
0 failed; design_index_pin 4/4; acceptance grep CLEAN of live
DESIGN.md refs (residuals = only the spec-mandated clause-4
deletion-enforcer). 2 DONE_WITH_CONCERNS routed to the mandatory
milestone-close audit: (a) str-abi.md:23 '(iter str-concat,
2026-05-13)' provenance stamp trips advisory architect_sweeps Sweep-1
— Boss-confirmed byte-identical to DESIGN.md@deeffb1:2062-2065, a
faithfully-migrated PRE-EXISTING anchor (regexes verbatim, only path
retargeted), NOT split-introduced — RATIFY-or-tidy at audit; (b) a
now stale-direction intra-prose 'see Str ABI below' cross-ref in
float-semantics.md — audit-adjudication candidate. Plan defect noted:
Task 9 Step 4's verbatim acceptance grep used a ^./ anchor not
matching the system's grep -rIn output; substance re-verified CLEAN.

iter embedding-abi-m3.tidy (DONE 3/3): close M3 audit [medium]+[low] doc-honesty drift, pin-safe
[medium] DESIGN.md §"Embedding ABI": surgically replaced ONLY the contradicted M1-era parenthetical (asserted the export boundary is scalar-only — false post-M3, a single-ctor record is an accepted export type) with the present-tense truth pointing at the frozen-layout SSOT + the own/borrow mode contract. The parenthetical shared physical line :2300 with the docs_honesty_pin:135 pinned bare-scalar sentence; the edit kept every pinned word (planner Step-5 item-6 pin-safety, the M2.tidy precedent — docs_honesty_pin stayed 5/5 green, RED-restore path never triggered). [low] codegen forwarder-body comment honesty fix (comment-only; the IR byte-pins assert generated code not comments — byte-identical before/after). Boss-verified: both stale fragments grep-absent; 4 standing pins green at the recon baseline; workspace 639/77 byte-unchanged; diff exactly 2 files. No behaviour change; the pins are the coverage (M2.tidy precedent, no audit/fieldtest gate). bench already carry-on/NO-ratify at the M3 audit (causally exonerated).

iter embedding-abi-m2.1 (PARTIAL 4/9 + Boss spec-defect repair): ctx ABI + de-globalisation
Tasks 1-4 land fully review-green and are the cohesive shippable
subset (the per-thread embedding ABI, fully wired + proven):
- T1: FIXED-FIRST alloc-guard baseline pin (RED captured -> GREEN at T4).
- T2: runtime/rc.c gains ailang_ctx_t {alloc_count,free_count} +
ailang_ctx_new/_free + __thread __ail_tls_ctx; the two increment
sites become 'if (_ctx) _ctx->... else g_rc_...'. g_rc_* statics +
ailang_rc_stats_atexit + the constructor RETAINED VERBATIM as the
null-ctx (single-threaded executable) fallback. rc_accounting_tsan.c
+ driver: per-ctx 8x200000 tsan-clean (de-globalisation positive proof).
- T3: codegen Target::StaticLib forwarder gains a leading 'ptr %ctx'
+ one '@__ail_tls_ctx = external thread_local global ptr' decl +
TLS save/store/restore around the BYTE-UNCHANGED internal call;
_adapter/_clos + internal arg vector untouched (M1 decision held);
doc-comment provisionality narrowed to the value/record layout.
- T4: build_staticlib rejects --alloc != rc (RC-only swarm artefact).
Boss adjudication of the orchestrator's Task-5 BLOCKED (spec-defect,
correctly surfaced not hacked): swarm.c's -DSHARED_CTX negative
control is structurally impossible — examples/embed_backtest_step.ail
is a non-allocating scalar kernel that never writes a ctx field, and
__ail_tls_ctx is __thread, so a shared-ctx scalar swarm has no
shared-memory write to race on (the spec's OWN item-1 honesty point).
The de-globalisation teeth belong to the item-1 rc_accounting harness
(shared ctx genuinely races on ctx->alloc_count; orchestrator
independently confirmed tsan exit 66). Spec amended in lockstep
(Goal coherent-stop, must-fail-axis item 2, Testing item 3,
Acceptance) so item 3's negative control is item-1's by the
de-globalisation-proof / capability-demo split; plan Task 5
restructured (swarm.c per-ctx capability demo only; negative-control
standing test relocated into the item-1 harness driver) + Task 3's
plan-transcription error (@ail_backtest_step ->
@ail_embed_backtest_step_step) corrected. This is a Boss
consistency-repair of an internally-contradictory clause whose intent
is already correctly realised in the same spec — not a redesign; no
brainstorm bounce. Task-5 working files discarded (corrected plan
reproduces them; a structurally-RED test must not enter main).
INDEX.md + final journal land at iter completion (re-dispatch [5,9]).

Tasks 1-3 of docs/plans/embedding-abi-m1.1.md, a verified known-good subset (cargo build --workspace exit 0; full workspace green; the roundtrip_cli all-examples gate green): - Task 1: CLI build-path MissingEntryMain baseline pin (examples/embed_noentry_baseline.ail + embed_missing_main_baseline.rs; triple-assertion, layered on the green codegen-unit pin lib.rs:3314). - Task 2: additive FnDef.export: Option<String> (serde default + skip_serializing_if, modelled on FnDef.doc); compile-driven thread of export: None across ~85 FnDef/AstFnDef literals / 18 files incl. all in-source #[cfg(test)] mod tests + drift/hash/spec-drift literals + the codegen lib.rs:3320 in-source pin; hash-stability golden pin; DESIGN.md fn-JSON "export" line. DONE_WITH_CONCERNS (plan symbol content_hash_fn -> def_hash per hash_pin.rs, plan- pseudo-vs-reality class, plan corrected). - Task 3: Form-A (export "<sym>") modifier — parse_export + parse_fn thread + write_fn_def emission + form_a.md grammar; byte-identical round-trip. Task 4 BLOCKED (Boss plan-defect: fixtures declared module != file stem; AILang's loader hard-enforces module==stem at workspace.rs:438, so ail check panicked on load before the gate). Boss resolution (Option 2, overriding the orchestrator's Option 1, rationale in the journal + plan Design-decision 6): keep descriptive embed_* filenames, rename fixture MODULES to their stems — the C symbol backtest_step stays via (export ...), demonstrating spec Decision 2's mangling- decoupling rather than violating it; archive becomes libembed_backtest_step.a, internal symbol @ail_embed_backtest_step_step, host.c unchanged. Plan fixed (Design-decision 6 + Task-4 module==stem + Task-5/6/7 dependent strings + the no-*. Float-head + content_hash_fn concerns folded). Headline fixture corrected; blocked-Task-4 WIP discarded (recreated by the [4,7] re-dispatch from the fixed plan). PARTIAL commit (not the iter's final commit): the implement Repair path mandates committing the known-good subset so the [4,7] re-dispatch starts from a clean tree that includes Tasks 1-3 (Tasks 4-7 structurally depend on the schema field + surface).

iter docs-honesty-lint.1: canonical docs present-tense-honest + wrap-robust pin + Sweep 5
Strips Wunschdenken (forward intent stated as fact) and non-citation post-mortem / doc-archaeology from docs/DESIGN.md (14 corrections incl. 1 Step-14 procedural-catch-all site the spec's illustrative regex would have missed) + docs/PROSE_ROUNDTRIP.md; genuine forward intent (LLM tool-use / MCP / LSP) relocated to roadmap P3. Codifies the tense+modality discriminator as a present-tense DESIGN.md meta- subsection. Guards two ways: wrap-robust enumerated absent/present pin (crates/ailang-core/tests/docs_honesty_pin.rs, norm() whitespace- collapse helper — structurally discharges the recurring grep/contains line-wrap failure family) + wrap-robust advisory Sweep 5 in architect_sweeps.sh (contiguous-fragment regex) with full sweep-count lockstep + new ailang-architect.md "DESIGN.md honesty drift" bullet. KEEPs preserved (Diverge-reserved, regions-rejected, self-labelled tiebreaker).

iter remove-mut-var-assign.1: atomic removal of mut/var/assign
mut/var/assign removed from AILang entirely and atomically. Deleted: Term::Mut/Term::Assign/struct MutVar; the three Form-A keywords + parse_mut/parse_assign + grammar EBNF; the 4 mut CheckError variants; the mut_scope_stack synth threading (param dropped from synth + every internal/external/test caller); the two lower_term arms; and every exhaustive no-_ Term::Mut/Term::Assign match arm across 17 source files — cut in lockstep with DESIGN.md, fixtures, the drift trio, carve-out and roadmap so the schema is honest at every commit. No catch-all wildcard introduced (verified). loop/recur + let/if are the surviving forms. The shared codegen alloca machinery survives (loop reuses it): mut_var_allocas renamed binder_allocas (representation-only, loop codegen byte-identical) and the shared Term::Lam escape guard simplified to !loop_stack.is_empty() with the loop half (LoopBinderCapturedByLambda) byte-equivalent. Feature-acceptance applied inverted: the removed feature fails clause 2 (redundant) and clause 3 (IS the iterated-mutable-state bug class). Behaviour preservation is executable: mut_counter/mut_sum_floats still print 55 after the faithful let/if rewrite. The removal is made executable by the new mut_removed_pin.rs (4 must-fail pins). Independent verification: cargo test --workspace 605/0, zero residual mut symbols in any crate source, loop/recur non-regression all green (55 / 500000500000 / infinite-compiles / the lambda_capturing_loop_binder pin), roundtrip_cli PASS. One DONE_WITH_CONCERNS: a 4th recurrence of the recon-undercount class (in-source mod tests + a drift-pin fn + 5 orphaned mut .ail.json carve-outs + a non-enumerated E0599); all resolved within implementer remit, no behaviour change.

iter prose-loop-binders.1: Form-B loop binders as parenthesised init-list
The Term::Loop arm of write_term rendered binders as bare
`name = init;` statements inside the `loop { … }` body block, which
reads as C/Rust re-init-every-iteration semantics — a projection
lying about a body the prose surface exists to let the reader trust.
Rewrite to a parenthesised init-list on the keyword line,
`loop(acc = 0, i = 1) { … }`, positionally isomorphic to the
unchanged Term::Recur arm. Projection-only: loop/recur AST, Form-A,
JSON-AST, typecheck, codegen, and the Form-A↔JSON round-trip
invariant untouched. RED-first via two new committed
examples/*.prose.txt byte-equality snapshots + two snapshot_loop_*

iter effect-doc-honesty: make the effect-system documentation true
Standalone documentation-honesty tidy (no language/checker/codegen change; `ail check`/`run` byte-unchanged by construction). Corrects three false effect-system claims the effect-subsystem recon surfaced, plus two satellite mentions, guarded by a new doc-presence pin: - DESIGN.md Decision 3: removed the "row-polymorphic (`![IO | r]`)" claim (no EffectRow / row variable exists in any crate — effect sets are a flat, unordered, closed set unified by set-equality); reconciled "`IO` and `Diverge` are wired up" to IO-only + `Diverge` reserved/unimplemented (zero code in any crate), modelled on Decision 4's reserved-refinements precedent. - DESIGN.md "What is not (yet) supported": "IO and Diverge ops" bullet -> IO-only + Diverge-reserved. - ast.rs Term::Do doc-comment: "resolved against the effect-handler table at link time" -> the real mechanism (typecheck lookup in Env::effect_ops + literal lower_effect_op codegen match; no handler table, no link-time resolution). - form_a.md:226 + rule 3, and main.rs merge-prose CONTRACT example: Diverge mentions reconciled in lockstep. - new crates/ailang-core/tests/effect_doc_honesty_pin.rs: 4 tests, fiction-absent + corrected-anchor-present, single-line wrap-robust substrings. cargo test --workspace 600 -> 604 (4 new pin tests, 0 regressions); design_schema_drift / spec_drift / schema_coverage stay green, empirically confirming none scans the effect-prose region. |

iter it.3 BLOCKED: surfaced fundamental milestone-design fork (bounce-back)
it.3 Task 1 (non-destructive oracle + spec-delegated class-(b) sweep) ran complete; zero production code changed. The mandated sweep surfaced that 6 corpus fixtures contain build(d:Int)=if d==0 then Leaf else Node(1,build(d-1),build(d-1)) — a terminating, maximally-LLM-natural, non-structural non-tail BRANCHING recursion the milestone's totality dichotomy makes inexpressible (not ADT-structural; not recur-able — branching is not a single tail back-edge). The milestone as-specified would fail its own feature-acceptance criterion. Orchestrator correctly bounced rather than patch a 4th time (spec_over_plan_patches).

iter mut.4-tidy + audit close — mut-local milestone closed
Tidy iter addressing the audit-mut-local drift. Plus paired baseline
update on bench/baseline_compile.json (audit-skill discipline).
Architect [high] items closed:
1. CheckError::MutVarCapturedByLambda rejects lambdas whose body
free vars include a mut-var of the enclosing mut_scope_stack.
Uses the existing ailang_core::desugar::free_vars_in_term walker
(which honours Term::Match pattern bindings). The scan runs only
when mut_scope_stack is non-empty.
2. crates/ailang-codegen/src/lambda.rs: the capture-not-in-locals
path that previously raised CodegenError::Internal blaming the
typechecker now uses unreachable!. The companion comment block
was rewritten to state the current reality.
Architect [medium] items closed (stale mut.1-stub history comments):
3. docs/DESIGN.md §'Term (expression)' mut/assign block: the
trailing paragraph describing the iter mut.1 stub state was
replaced with one describing the current mut.3-end-state. The
inline jsonc comment on {'t': 'assign'} was updated to drop the
'deferred to mut.2/mut.3' language.
4. crates/ailang-codegen/src/lib.rs: the stale comment block above
the real Term::Mut arm describing the mut.1 stub was removed
entirely.
Other:
- Short-circuit on empty mut_scope_stack in synth's Term::Var arm:
the iter mut.2 prepend now skips the iter-and-find walk when
the stack is empty, eliminating any per-Var-resolution overhead
for the common case (programs with no mut blocks). The
short-circuit did NOT close the check_ms regression — see ratify
below.
- Spec docs/specs/2026-05-15-mut-local.md §'Out of scope' amended
with the lambda-capture rejection bullet.
- Negative fixture examples/test_mut_var_captured_by_lambda.ail.json
+ driver test extension in crates/ailang-check/tests/
mut_typecheck_pin.rs (6th test) +
crates/ailang-core/tests/carve_out_inventory.rs EXPECTED bumped
12 → 13.
Bench-regression ratify:
bench/compile_check.py check_ms showed a uniform ~30-50% relative
shift across the entire 11-fixture suite (~0.5ms absolute on a
1.4-1.5ms baseline). The uniformity across fixtures of very
different Var counts argues for a fixed-cost-per-invocation tax,
not a Var-proportional hot path. The Term::Var short-circuit
falsified the hot-path hypothesis. The plausible remaining causes
(synth-parameter-passing through ~19 recursive sites, and binary-
size startup tax from mut-* adding ~1400 LOC to typecheck/codegen)
are both feature-cost, not pathological. Ratified by paired
journal entry; bench/baseline_compile.json updated to the post-
mut-local numbers via 'bench/compile_check.py --update-baseline'.
bench/check.py continues to show the established tail-latency-noise
envelope from audit-pd (2026-05-14) — no separate ratify needed.
bench/cross_lang.py clean.
Tests: 594 → 598 green (4 new lib.rs mod tests + 1 driver test +
1 fixture-corpus uptake).

iter mut.3: codegen + e2e — mut-local milestone end-to-end closed
Replaces the iter mut.1 dispatch stubs in lower_term with real LLVM
lowering: mut-vars become alloca slots hoisted to the fn's entry
block, assign lowers to store, mut-var reads lower to load. Two
example fixtures run end-to-end printing 55 (Int via mut_counter,
Float via mut_sum_floats).
Concretely:
- Emitter struct gains three new fields: mut_var_allocas:
BTreeMap<String, (String, Type)> for per-fn name→(alloca SSA,
AIL type) tracking; pending_entry_allocas: String as a side
buffer accumulating alloca instructions during body lowering;
entry_block_end_marker: Option<usize> recording the byte position
in self.body immediately after the entry: label.
- start_block(label) captures the marker when label == 'entry'.
emit_fn resets all three new fields per fn body. At the end of
emit_fn, String::insert_str splices pending_entry_allocas into
self.body at the marker — alloca instructions land in the entry
block regardless of where in the source tree Term::Mut was
encountered (mem2reg eligibility preserved).
- Term::Mut arm: per var, fresh-name an alloca SSA, push the
alloca instruction into pending_entry_allocas, lower the init at
the current body position, emit a store to bind. The mut-var
binding is NOT visible during init (matches typecheck-side
ordering at lib.rs:3576). After all vars are bound, lower the
body in the extended scope. On block exit, restore any prior
bindings via a per-block save stack — supports nested
shadowing correctly.
- Term::Assign arm: look up the alloca + type via
mut_var_allocas.get(name); lower the value; emit store; yield
the canonical Unit SSA per the existing Term::Lit { lit:
Literal::Unit } convention.
- Term::Var arm: prepended with a mut-var lookup that emits a
load <ty>, ptr <alloca> and returns the load SSA. Innermost-wins
shadowing falls out of the BTreeMap's insert-overwrites
semantics combined with the per-block save/restore.
- examples/mut_counter.ail + examples/mut_sum_floats.ail:
recursive sum_helper accumulates 1..10 (Int) or 1.0..10.0 (Float)
inside a mut block whose single var is assigned the helper's
result. Both run end-to-end printing 55.
- crates/ail/tests/e2e.rs: mut_counter_prints_55 and
mut_sum_floats_prints_55 #[test] fns using the existing
build_and_run helper.
- DESIGN.md 'What is supported' subsection: 'Local mutable state'
bullet describes the new construct, points at the two example
fixtures, and reaffirms the seal-by-construction invariant under
Decision 10.
Beyond-plan adjustments absorbed in this iter:
- synth_with_extras's parallel Term::Var arm in
ailang-codegen/src/lib.rs needed the same mut-var lookup as
lower_term's. Plan only specified lower_term's arm.
- crates/ailang-codegen/src/lambda.rs needed save/restore of all
three new Emitter fields across the lambda-body boundary plus
in-thunk splice of pending_entry_allocas at the lambda's own
entry marker, so mut-blocks inside a closure body hoist into
the closure's entry block (not the outer fn's).

iter mut.2: typecheck for Term::Mut + Term::Assign
Replaces the iter mut.1 dispatch stubs in synth with real typecheck
logic. Codegen stubs stay (deferred to mut.3); examples/mut.ail now
typechecks clean but still cannot run end-to-end.
Concretely:
- crates/ailang-check/src/lib.rs: three new CheckError variants
(MutAssignOutOfScope, AssignTypeMismatch, UnsupportedMutVarType)
with #[error('[code]: msg')] Display attrs matching the cli-diag-
human bracketed-code convention; code() + ctx() arms emit
kebab-case codes and structured JSON payloads.
- synth signature: new parameter mut_scope_stack: &mut Vec<IndexMap<
String, Type>> after locals, threaded through every recursive call
site (synth's 18 internal calls + mono.rs:712/1337 re-synth +
lift.rs:723 + builtins.rs test helpers + the mq.3 in-test helper
at lib.rs:6663). Stack is per-walk and lexically scoped — push on
Term::Mut entry, pop on exit. Each frame is an IndexMap so
declaration order is preserved for the diagnostic 'available' list.
- Term::Var resolution: prepended with innermost-first mut-scope
lookup. Mut-vars are monomorphic — no Forall instantiation, no
free_fn_owner recording. Innermost-wins shadowing falls out of
the iteration order.
- Term::Mut arm: gate var types to Int/Float/Bool/Unit only via
a small is_supported_mut_var_type helper; each var's init is
synth'd in the in-progress scope (the var itself is not yet
bound, so it does not self-shadow during init); push completed
frame, synth body, pop. Block's type is body's type.
- Term::Assign arm: walk mut_scope_stack innermost-first looking for
name. On miss: MutAssignOutOfScope with available flattened
across all frames (innermost-first, deduplicated, preserving
order). On hit: synth value, unify against declared type — on
mismatch emit AssignTypeMismatch with rendered types; on success
produce Type::unit().
- Five .ail.json fixtures under examples/ exercising each
diagnostic plus a positive nested-shadow sanity case, driven by
the new pin test crates/ailang-check/tests/mut_typecheck_pin.rs
(load_workspace + check_workspace + assert exact codes).
- carve_out_inventory.rs EXPECTED extended 7 → 12 to cover the new
negative-fixture set (consistent with the form-a-default-authoring
spec §C4(b) precedent for type-rejection fixtures staying as
.ail.json-only).
Plan deviations from recon: three additional synth() call sites
beyond the four enumerated (lift.rs:723, builtins.rs x2,
lib.rs:6663) surfaced via the build-red structural signal; each
threaded with a fresh empty stack. carve_out_inventory.rs extension
was required by the existing pin but not named in the recon — a
documentary concern for the next planner pass.
Tests: 579 → 592 green; examples/mut.ail typechecks clean
('ok (26 symbols across 2 modules)') via cargo run --bin ail --
check examples/mut.ail; cargo build green; full workspace test
green.

iter mut.1: AST extension + Form A surface for local mutable state
First iteration of the mut-local milestone (foundation step on the
Stateful-islands roadmap path). Lands the schema + surface tier:
Term::Mut, Term::Assign, and the nested MutVar struct become
first-class AST nodes that round-trip cleanly through Form A.
Typecheck and codegen recognition are deferred to mut.2 and mut.3
per the spec's out-of-iteration boundary; reaching either dispatch
entry point with these variants produces CheckError::Internal /
CodegenError::Internal with a 'deferred to iter mut.{2,3}' message.
Concretely:
- crates/ailang-core/src/ast.rs: two new Term variants behind
#[serde(tag = 't')]; pub struct MutVar { name, ty, init } adjacent
to Arm. Two canonical-bytes pin tests for the explicit-empty-vars
serialisation and the assign round-trip.
- ~25 substantive Term-walker arms across ailang-core/desugar,
ailang-core/workspace, ailang-check (lib + lift + linearity + mono
+ pre_desugar_validation + reuse_shape + uniqueness),
ailang-codegen (escape + lambda + lib), ailang-prose, and
crates/ail/src/main.rs. Universal policy: substantive recurse-into-
children at every site; only the two dispatch entry points
(synth in ailang-check, lower_term in ailang-codegen) stub with
Internal-error. One test-side walker arm in
crates/ail/tests/codegen_import_map_fallback_pin.rs not
enumerated by the plan was added as well (defensive recursion).
- ailang-surface: parse_mut + parse_assign helpers; Term::Mut
body desugared from a flat statement sequence into a right-folded
Term::Seq chain inside the JSON-AST. Print arms in print.rs match
the parser convention. EBNF prologue + crates/ailang-core/specs/
form_a.md productions updated. Four new parser pin tests cover
the empty-mut, single-var, body-required, and vars-only-no-body
cases.
- Drift + coverage tests extended: design_schema_drift.rs adds two
exemplars + match arms; schema_coverage.rs adds two VariantTag
entries + EXPECTED_VARIANTS + visit_term arms; spec_drift.rs adds
two exemplars + match arms. DESIGN.md §'Term (expression)' gets
jsonc-blocked schemas for the two new variants.
- examples/mut.ail: six-fn round-trip fixture exercising empty mut,
single-var, two-var, nested-shadow, and the four supported scalar
return types (Int, Float, Bool, Unit). The round_trip auto-glob
and schema_coverage corpus walker both pick it up.
Plan deviation: the plan named lib.rs:2572 as the typecheck
dispatch stub site, but that line is actually verify_tail_positions
(substantive walker). The real dispatch is synth (3403-area, stub
at 3489); the orchestrator routed correctly.
Tests: 564 → 579 green; cargo build green; round-trip green for
the new fixture; all drift + coverage tests green.

iter pd.3: prelude.ail.json retired — milestone prelude-decouple closed
Deleted examples/prelude.ail.json (-559 lines). The cross-form-identity preflight test that ratified pd.3's load-bearing assumption at module hash 3abe0d3fa3c11c99 has discharged its purpose and was removed along with its supporting bytes; the long-term prelude_parse_yields_canonical_hash anchor stays. The ail-CLI migrate-bare-cross-module-refs subcommand's defensive include + lockstep skip-branch removed; the rewrite logic's prelude-fallback capability silently retired with the synthetic insert (known debt, doc-comment updated to reflect). One in-mod core test relocated to crates/ailang-core/tests/workspace_pin.rs (pd.2.4 dev-dep cycle precedent — in-mod call to ailang_surface still structurally impossible). carve_out_inventory.rs: 8 → 7 carve-outs, §C4(b) row dropped, header sentence updated. form-a-default-authoring.md §C4(b) gets a "RETIRED 2026-05-14 by milestone prelude-decouple" status marker; original historical text preserved. New prelude_decouple_carve_out_pin.rs asserts examples/prelude.ail.json does NOT exist. Milestone prelude-decouple closed: prelude exists on disk only as examples/prelude.ail; ailang-core embeds zero prelude bytes; CLAUDE.md "authors write .ail" doctrine holds without exception. cargo test --workspace 573 green; bench/cross_lang.py + bench/compile_check.py exit 0; bench/check.py exit 1 with the established noise envelope (14th observation of bench_list_sum.bump_s since audit-cma; pd.3 is filesystem + spec text + test deletion only, no codegen / runtime / typecheck path edited — baseline pristine).

iter pd.2: surface owns prelude embed; pd.1 shim retired
Moved PRELUDE_AIL const + parse_prelude fn to ailang-surface; re-exported from surface's lib.rs. surface::load_workspace rewritten 3-line shim-call → 7-line composition: load_modules_with → reserved-name check → inject parse_prelude → build_workspace(&["prelude"]). Five deletions in core: PRELUDE_JSON, load_prelude, load_workspace_with (the pd.1 shim), the top-level cfg(test) load_one fn, and the cfg(test) crate::load_module import. Production literal-"prelude" count in crates/ailang-core/src/ is now zero. Cross-form-identity preflight PASSED at module_hash 3abe0d3fa3c11c99 — parse(prelude.ail) ≡ deserialize(prelude.ail.json), so pd.3's deletion of the JSON is safe.

Plan deviations (recorded in journal): switched the regression-pin fixture from non-existent examples/hello.ail.json to hello.ail; relocated 10 in-mod core tests to crates/ailang-core/tests/workspace_pin.rs because the dev-dep cycle (core ↔ surface) prevents in-mod aliasing in the lib-test target (form-a.1 T5 precedent); preserved load_one production-symbol-deletion by adding a test-mod-private load_one helper in core's mod tests for the 2 pd.1-introduced tests still consuming it. cargo test --workspace 573 green (+9 net from pd.1 baseline). bench/cross_lang.py + bench/compile_check.py exit 0; bench/check.py exit 1 with established noise envelope (bench_list_sum.bump_s, 13th consecutive observation; pd.2 is workspace-loader-only, no codegen touch — baseline pristine). |

iter pd.1: core API split — load_modules_with + build_workspace + implicit_imports threading
Carved load_workspace_with's inline DFS+inject+validate block into two new public fns: load_modules_with (DFS only) and build_workspace (validation + registry, takes implicit_imports: &[&str]). Threaded the new parameter through validate_canonical_type_names + check_class_ref + check_type_con_name; the four hardcoded literal-"prelude" fallback blocks in the diagnostic helpers became iter-loops over implicit_imports. load_workspace_with survives as a 3-line shim composing the new fns + the still-in-place prelude inject, so surface (ailang-surface) and all downstream crates compile + test unchanged. Retired pub fn load_workspace (zero production callers; 9 in-mod test callers migrated to load_workspace_with(&entry, load_one); load_one + the load_module import gated under cfg(test) since they're now test-only). Production literal-"prelude" count in workspace.rs dropped 8 -> 4 (all 4 in the shim's inject path; none in the diagnostic helpers, which was the spec's pd.1 target). pd.2 will move the prelude embed + the inject step into ailang-surface and retire the shim; pd.3 will delete examples/prelude.ail.json. cargo test --workspace green; bench/check.py + compile_check.py + cross_lang.py all exit 0. |

iter rpe.1: retire per-type print effect-ops
Single iter shipping the post-milestone-24 follow-up named in
docs/specs/2026-05-14-retire-per-type-print-effects.md. After this
iter the only surviving direct-output effect-op is `io/print_str`;
all per-type print primitives are replaced by the polymorphic
`print` helper (prelude, iter 24.3).
Components:
- 92 examples/*.ail fixtures migrated (do io/print_<T> x) →
(app print x); 6 .prose.txt snapshots regenerated via `ail prose`.
- Four-site lockstep compiler deletion: crates/ailang-check/src/builtins.rs
(3 effect_ops.insert blocks + 3 list() rows + the
install_io_print_float_signature test + module + EffectOpSig
doc-comments); crates/ailang-codegen/src/lib.rs lower_app
(3 arms + lowers_io_print_float test); crates/ailang-codegen/src/synth.rs
builtin_effect_op_ret match-arm pattern. Dead `intern_string`
helper removed as a follow-up.
- Five incidental test-body migrations (ailang-check x2, ailang-core
spec_drift + design_schema_drift, ailang-surface/src/lex.rs,
ailang-prose/src/lib.rs round-trip test).
- Cat B test-harness patch: six IR-shape tests in
crates/ail/tests/e2e.rs gained a monomorphise_workspace call
before lower_workspace_with_alloc so they follow the same
pipeline as `ail build` (the home-rolled desugar+lift loop
stayed because mono's precondition is "already lifted"; mono
inserts after lift).
- Six doc-comment touch-ups (lex.rs module doc, parse.rs
diagnostic example, ail/src/main.rs x2, runtime/str.c %g anchor,
crates/ailang-core/specs/form_a.md surface-spec example).
- DESIGN.md seven-site sweep (Decision 11 example, Polymorphic
print past-tense, Heap-Str output sentence, effect-op
invocation comment, Float NaN paragraph re-anchored on
float_to_str, two "What is supported" lists).
- Three E2E test-comment polish + four IR-snapshot refresh + one
canonical-hash pin update (plan-unanticipated downstream
consequences of the corpus migration).
- bench/{check,compile_check,cross_lang}.py: all exit 0; no
ratification needed.
- Roadmap entry struck through; per-iter journal at
docs/journals/2026-05-14-iter-rpe.1.md.
Tests 564/0/3. cargo clippy and cargo doc: zero warnings.
Two upstream codegen bugs surfaced during the first BLOCKED
attempt and were fixed in separate iters before this retry:

bugfix: print leak — propagate ret_mode through rigid substitution
`(app print x)` under --alloc=rc leaked the heap-Str allocated by
`show x` in print's body: the let-binder `s` in
`(let s (app show x) (do io/print_str s))` was never flagged
trackable, so the drop site at scope-close emitted no
`ailang_rc_dec(s)`. Minimal repro `(body (app print 42))` produced
`allocs=1 frees=0 live=1`.
Root cause is two-layer:
1. examples/prelude.ail.json declared the Show class method `show`
without an explicit `ret_mode` on the return type, so serde
defaulted to ParamMode::Implicit. Fix: add `"ret_mode": "own"`
on the Show.show method, parallel to how the heap-Str-producing
builtins (int_to_str, bool_to_str, float_to_str, str_clone,
str_concat) declare it. examples/prelude.ail regenerated via
`ail render` to stay parse-isomorphic with the JSON.
2. crates/ailang-check/src/lib.rs `substitute_rigids` was silently
stripping `param_modes` and `ret_mode` whenever it rebuilt a
`Type::Fn`, so even after the prelude fix, the mono-synthesised
`show__Int / Bool / Str / Float` lost the `Own` annotation
during rigid substitution. Fix: preserve both fields through
the substitution.
RED pin: crates/ail/tests/print_no_leak_pin.rs (test
`alloc_rc_print_int_does_not_leak_show_result_str`) + fixture
examples/print_int_no_leak_pin.ail asserts allocs == frees and
live == 0 for `(body (app print 42))` under --alloc=rc.
Ten mono-body hash pins re-recorded (eq__Int/Bool/Str,
compare__Int/Bool/Str, show__Int/Bool/Str/Float, eq__IntBox) —
the bodies are semantically identical; the canonical JSON now
carries the previously-stripped mode metadata, so the body hash
moves. Re-pinning is bookkeeping for the intentional drift, not
a workaround.
Surfaced 2026-05-14 during the rpe.1 BLOCKED orchestrator run
(Cat A). Existed in latent form since iter 24.3 (when Show + print
shipped); only became user-observable when `(app print ...)` joined
the corpus. cargo test --workspace: 565 / 0 / 3.
Open follow-up flagged for next /audit: grep for `Type::Fn { ..., .. }`
field-spread sites — any other shape that drops modes during
rebuild is a latent instance of the same bug class. Out of scope
for this minimal fix.

bugfix: mono cursor misalignment at poly-free-fn Var with class-constrained Forall
When `synth` visits a `Term::Var v` where v is a polymorphic free fn whose `Type::Forall` carries class constraints (e.g. `print : forall a. Show a => ...`, `lt`/`le`/`gt`/`ge : forall a. Ord a => ...`), it pushes BOTH a class `ResidualConstraint` for each constraint AND a `FreeFnCall` observation at the same Var site. The mono walkers (`interleave_slots` collection-side and `rewrite_mono_calls` rewrite-side) consumed only ONE slot per such Var, leaving the class-residual cursor misaligned for every subsequent class-method call in the same body. The next `eq`/`compare` Var in the body then consumed the leftover `Show T` / `Ord T` slot and was mis-rewritten — codegen reported `call prelude.show__Bool arg type mismatch: expected i1, got i64` (or the Int dual). Fix: new `poly_free_fn_constraint_counts_for_module` registry in mono.rs (sibling to `poly_free_fn_names_for_module`) maps each synth-visible poly-free-fn name to its declared constraint count. Threaded into `collect_residuals_ordered`, `interleave_slots`, and `rewrite_mono_calls`. Both walkers now advance the cursor by 1 + N (FreeFn slot + N class-residual fillers) at every poly-free-fn Var. RED test `print_with_class_method_arg_does_not_misalign_mono_cursor` (crates/ail/tests/show_print_e2e.rs) + fixture examples/print_eq_arg_repro.ail pin the bug — body `(app print (app eq 1 2))` previously crashed at codegen, now prints "false". Bug surfaced 2026-05-14 during the rpe.1 BLOCKED orchestrator run; existed in latent form since iter 24.3 (the poly-free-fn-with-class- constraint synth shape was new there). No schema / codegen / DESIGN.md changes. cargo test --workspace: 564 / 0 / 3. |

iter str-concat: heap-Str concatenation primitive in four-site lockstep
Closes fieldtest-form-a friction finding #4. `str_concat : (borrow Str, borrow Str) -> Str` ships in the four-site-lockstep pattern established by `str_clone` / `int_to_str` / `bool_to_str` (iter 24.1). The LLM-natural Show-MyType body `(app str_concat "label=" (app int_to_str x))` now parses, checks, builds, and runs end-to-end. Sites touched (lockstep): - runtime/str.c — `ailang_str_concat(a, b)` slab-allocates and memcpys both source payloads into a new heap-Str. - ailang-check/src/builtins.rs — `env.globals.insert("str_concat", Fn { 2x Str borrow, ret Str own, effects [] })` + `list()` row + `install_str_concat_signature` unit test. - ailang-codegen/src/lib.rs — `declare ptr @ailang_str_concat(ptr, ptr)` extern + `lower_app` arm after str_clone + `is_builtin_callable` extension + IR-pin unit test `str_concat_emits_call_to_ailang_str_concat`. - examples/show_user_adt_with_label.ail (new) + crates/ail/tests/ str_concat_e2e.rs (new) — corpus fixture exercising the LLM-natural Show body shape + E2E pin asserting check + build + run produce `Item 42\n`. Lockstep collision repaired: examples/bug_unbound_in_instance_method.ail used `str_concat` as its UNBOUND name (because that was the literal fieldtester repro). Renamed to `format_label` (LLM-author-realistic helper name that will never become a builtin) and updated the pin test `crates/ail/tests/unbound_in_instance_method_pin.rs` accordingly, preserving the regression guard's intent (instance-method-body walked through unbound-var check). DESIGN.md amended: new §"Heap-Str primitives" subsection between the milestone-24 Show-backer enumeration and the existing `Primitive output goes through ...` paragraph, cataloguing all five heap-Str primitives (`int_to_str`, `bool_to_str`, `float_to_str`, `str_clone`, `str_concat`) with signatures, iter origins, and the user-visible-vs-prelude-internal distinction. Show-backer block unchanged. IR snapshots regenerated (hello, list, max3, sum, ws_main) to absorb the new `declare ptr @ailang_str_concat(ptr, ptr)` line in the unconditional extern header — same upkeep pattern as hs.4 which regenerated the same 5 snapshots for the same reason (unconditional declares dead-stripped by clang -O2 when unused). Tests: 559 + 3 = 562 green (E2E pin + builtin-signature test + IR-pin test). Zero re-loops across all 7 tasks. |

iter form-a.tidy: form_a.md class/instance/constraints + 3 documentary drift items
Six-task post-fieldtest documentary tidy. No production-code behaviour
changes; 559 tests green at every per-task gate.
T1-T3: form_a.md additions
- §Definitions intro "Three kinds" -> "Five kinds".
- New `### Class — (class ...)` subsection: EBNF carries optional
superclass (0 or 1 per ClassDef.superclass schema), method
signatures with optional defaults; anchored to
examples/test_22c_user_class_e2e.ail (ok 24/2).
- New `### Instance — (instance ...)` subsection: EBNF carries the
(method NAME (body LAM-TERM))* shape; canonical-form CLASS-REF
rule explicitly stated (bare same-module / qualified cross-module);
two examples — same-module abbreviated from
mq3_class_eq_vs_fn_eq_classmod.ail and cross-module qualified
from show_user_adt.ail; bare-cross-module-class-ref diagnostic
named inline.
- §Types `(forall ...)` line extended with optional `(constraints
(constraint CLASS-REF TYPE)+)?` clause; explanatory paragraph
added with no-instance diagnostic anchor; fifth example added
to the Examples block anchored to cmp_max_smoke.ail.
T4: docs/specs/2026-05-13-form-a-default-authoring.md "seven
carve-outs" → "eight carve-outs" at 6 sites contradicting the

iter form-a.1 (Tasks 6-12): milestone close
Second half of the form-a-default-authoring milestone-close iter
(Boss-decided strategy C, big-bang). All seven tasks DONE; cargo
test --workspace green at every per-task boundary.
T6 — Bench-driver suffix flip from .ail.json to .ail across 4
Python scripts + run.sh. compile_check.py + cross_lang.py exit 0.
T7 — Re-author e2e.rs raw-JSON-inspect tests:
- diff_detects_changed_def — derive sum.ail.json on-the-fly via
`ail parse examples/sum.ail` into tempdir, then mutate + diff.
- borrow_own_demo_modes_are_metadata_only — same pattern.
- reuse_as_demo_under_rc_uses_inplace_rewrite — same pattern.
- render_parse_round_trip_canonical — RETIRED (subsumed by T1's
cli_parse_then_render_then_parse_is_idempotent over whole corpus).
- ail_run_accepts_ail_source_with_same_stdout_as_ail_json —
re-authored to derive hello.ail.json in a per-process tempdir
from hello.ail via `ail parse`, then assert dual-form stdout.
T8 — Bulk-delete 156 non-carve-out .ail.json. Inventory:
8 .ail.json (carve-outs, alphabetical: broken_unbound + prelude
+ 3× test_22b2_* + 3× test_ct1_*) + 157 .ail. carve_out_inventory
test un-#[ignore]'d and green. Forward-pulled 20 repairs that the
T1-5 dispatch's recon missed (12 Group-B suffix + 5 Group-A
load_workspace + 3 ail_run sites). Also forward-pulled T9 Step 5
(schema_coverage corpus flip from .ail.json to .ail) to satisfy
T8's green-gate.
T9 — Retire obsolete roundtrip tests:
- print_then_parse_round_trips_every_fixture (round_trip.rs)
- every_ail_fixture_matches_its_json_counterpart (round_trip.rs)
- cli_render_then_parse_preserves_canonical_bytes_on_every_fixture
- Dead helpers: list_json_fixtures ×2, round_trip_one,
strip_trailing_newlines.
Schema-coverage corpus already flipped in T8 (forward-pull).
T10 — DESIGN.md §"Roundtrip Invariant" (lines 2027-2109) restated
with parse-determinism + idempotency + CLI-pipeline-idempotency +
carve-out-anchor framing. Five surviving enforcement tests named.
§"Float literals" and §"Why anchored at top level" preserved.
T11 — §A4 doctrine edits: CLAUDE.md:5-6 + DESIGN.md:465-466.
Canonical form remains JSON-AST; authoring projection is .ail;
build derives JSON-AST in-process via ailang_surface::parse.
T12 — Milestone close:
- WhatsNew entry: user-facing language, lead with the change.
- Roadmap: [milestone] form-a struck [x] with closing note.
- Final inventory verified: 8 .ail.json + 157 .ail.
- Final cargo test --workspace: 557 passed, 0 failed, 3 ignored.
- bench/compile_check.py + bench/cross_lang.py: exit 0.
Test math: pre-iter 558 baseline + 3 new T1 tests = 561, − 1
(T7 retire) − 3 (T9 retire) = 557 final.
