refactor: clear clippy code lints across the workspace
Machine-applicable clippy fixes plus three by-hand cleanups; all semantics-preserving (full workspace test suite green). Auto-applied (cargo clippy --fix): - dropped `.clone()` on the Copy type ParamMode (ret_mode/param_mode) - map_or(false, p) -> is_some_and(p) - removed redundant closures and an explicit .into_iter() - useless format!, a needless deref, an as_bytes-after-slice By hand: - ailang-codegen: named the loop-frame tuple types (LoopFrame / LoopBinderSlot) instead of the bare nested Vec<(String, Vec<(String, String, String, Type)>)>, clearing the type-complexity lint and documenting what each slot holds. - ailang-check: collapsed the two identical pass-through arms of the Type-Con qualifier (already-dotted / primitive) into one `||` guard. - ailang-core: converted a stale `///` block (it described a test that was relocated, documenting nothing) back to a plain `//` comment. Remaining clippy output is 16 markdown list-indentation nits in prose doc comments — doc formatting, not code, left for a docs pass. |

refactor: collapse duplicated helpers and drop dead code across check/core/codegen
Pure simplification pass, no behaviour change — hashes, canonical forms, diagnostic codes, and emitted IR are byte-identical (hash-pin and IR-pin tests unchanged and green). ailang-check: - strip_forall and collect_pattern_binders were triplicated verbatim across linearity.rs / reuse_shape.rs / uniqueness.rs; hoisted each to a single pub(crate) fn in lib.rs. - mono.rs::pattern_binders was a fourth copy of collect_pattern_binders (iterative style, same result for every Pattern shape); deleted, now calls the shared fn. - maybe_instantiate and expect_eq were single-call wrappers; inlined at their sole call sites and removed. ailang-core: - collect_used_in_pattern was a verbatim duplicate of pattern_binds; deleted, call site repointed. pattern_binds made private (no external callers; the doc-comment's lift_letrecs claim was stale). - is_false serde helper replaced by std::ops::Not::not at the four skip_serializing_if sites (all plain-bool fields); helper removed. - test-only any_nested_ctor / any_let_rec folded into one generic any_term(t, &pred) walker. - removed dead test helpers tmp_dir / examples_dir, orphaned when their tests relocated to tests/workspace_pin.rs. ailang-codegen: - removed the write-only Emitter::types field, its populating loop, and the now-unused CtorInfo struct it fed. - adt_drop_symbol / adt_partial_drop_symbol differed only in a prefix literal; folded into one adt_symbol(prefix, ...). Symbol strings unchanged. Net -180 LOC. |

audit(0064/cutover): record shipped drop machinery + retire dead desugar arm
Cycle-close tidy for the #55 cutover (its audit drift-resolution). Architect drift review found the design ledger out of step with the codegen that the cutover shipped, plus two debt items; regression green (733 passed / 0 failed across the workspace). design/contracts/0008-memory-model.md — the Codegen contract described the drop-emission *gates* but not the drop machinery the cutover landed. Added three subsections recording the present state (honesty rule): - Per-monomorph drop fns for polymorphic ADTs (crates/ailang-codegen/ src/dropmono.rs: collect_drop_monos / DropAdtMeta, the suffix scheme, value-field-skip on the substituted field type). Ratified by alloc_rc_value_type_field_is_not_rc_dec_dropped. - String-literal rep promotion at owned drop sites (StrRep::Static→Heap on a Str literal flowing into an Own slot the callee drops; gated strictly on Own). Ratified by own_str_literal_arg_is_dropped_exactly_once. - Same-constructor arm grouping in match desugar (build_chain / build_ctor_group bind ctor fields once). Ratified by lit_pat_ctor_tail_drop_single_drop + lit_pat_nil_scrutinee_single_drop. crates/ailang-core/src/desugar.rs — build_chain routes every Ctor-head arm (including a length-1 run) through build_ctor_group, so desugar_one_arm's Pattern::Ctor arm was unreachable dead code duplicating the bind-once lowering. Replaced it with unreachable! naming the invariant, and corrected two stale doc comments (the module-header step 4 and the desugar_one_arm doc still described it as handling ctor arms, and mislabeled the Lit lowering as Term::Match — it is Term::If). Full workspace stayed green, confirming the arm was dead. crates/ailang-check/src/linearity.rs — renamed test implicit_fn_is_exempt → own_param_consumed_once_is_clean. Post-0062 there is no Implicit and no exemption; the test pins the ordinary single-Own-consume clean path. Did the desugar + linearity edits inline rather than via an agent: I had already loaded build_chain/build_ctor_group/desugar_one_arm to prove the arm dead, and a sub-agent would have redone the same reading. |

feat(lang): eliminate the Implicit ownership default — totality + the drop-soundness it demasks (#55)
Deletes `ParamMode::Implicit`. `ParamMode` is now `{Own, Borrow}`:
every fn-type slot on every signature carries an explicit `own` or
`borrow`, no defaulted position survives anywhere (model 0008 §2,
spec 0062). The parser rejects a bare fn-type slot; `borrow-return`
and `borrow-over-value` reject at the signature; the corpus is
migrated to minimal-ownership modes (consumed ⇒ own, read-only-heap
⇒ borrow, value ⇒ trivial-own). The documented `Implicit`-ret-mode
leak is fixed: an owned heap return now drops exactly once (live=0,
acceptance criterion 5).
This was the easy half. Removing the default ACTIVATED a family of
drop paths that `Implicit` had silently skipped — the pre-cutover
language was leaking (and in places mis-dropping) here rather than
crashing, because an Implicit scrutinee turned the drop off. Making
the modes explicit (Own) turned those paths on and exposed two
latent-bug clusters, all fixed RED-first as part of this cutover:
Drop-soundness family (four legs):
A. lit-sub-pattern double-free — the desugar re-matched the same
owned scrutinee in the lit fall-through; fixed by grouping
consecutive same-ctor arms into one match (bind fields once),
in ailang-core desugar.
B. Cons-husk leak on non-tail arm bodies — the lit-sub-pattern
desugar rebound the owned scrutinee via `Let $mp = xs`, which
bumped consume_count and suppressed the existing fn-return
partial_drop. Fixed by not rebinding a bare-Var scrutinee
(one husk-freeing mechanism, not two).
C. polymorphic `drop_<T>` rc_dec'd monomorphised value fields —
the per-ADT drop fn was emitted once from the polymorphic
TypeDef, defaulting type-var fields to ptr and rc_dec'ing
inline Ints (segfault). Fixed with per-monomorph drop
functions (new ailang-codegen::dropmono): the drop set is
collected from the lowered MIR, value-type fields are skipped,
heap fields still freed once; monomorphic-concrete ADTs keep
their byte-identical un-suffixed drop symbol.
D. static Str literal passed to an `(own Str)` param — the
literal lowers to a header-less rodata constant; the callee's
now-active rc_dec read its length field as a refcount and
freed a static address (segfault). Fixed with the missing
fourth StrRep::Static→Heap promotion in lower_to_mir's App arm,
gated on Own mode (borrow args stay static, no regression).
over-strict-mode lint over-fired: it suggested `(borrow V)` for
value-typed params (which `borrow-over-value` rejects — own is the
only legal mode there) and fired on `(intrinsic)` bodies (whose
consumption the linearity walk cannot observe). Tightened to skip
both; contract 0008 updated to the narrowed firing scope.
Irreversible step — canonical-form hash reset (model 0008 §6,
acceptance criterion 6). Every signature now carries explicit modes,
so the hashable canonical JSON changed for every module. RATIFY:
the corpus-wide hash-pin reset (hash_pin, prelude_module_hash_pin,
mono_hash_stability, eq_ord_e2e, embed_export_hash_stable, the
ct4/iter*/loop_recur schema-extension pins) and the list ir_snapshot
golden were regenerated once, deliberately, as the intended one-time
consequence of removing the mode elision from the canonical form —
not a regression. Each regenerated hash verified deterministic across
two runs.
Also fixes a pre-existing latent failure surfaced by the verification
gate, unrelated to this cutover: the `every_contract_names_a_resolvable_
ratifying_test` resolver (design_index_pin) could not resolve the
" + " dual-link ratifying-test form (`uniqueness.rs + linearity.rs`)
that the #57 audit-close (

fix(check): honour the written element type-arg on polymorphic (new T …)
A `(new RawBuf (con Int) 3)` whose buffer is never observed by a later
get/set passed `ail check` but crashed `ail build` with
`RawBuf_new__Unit has no registered intercept`, and a forbidden
`(new RawBuf (con Unit) 3)` was wrongly accepted at check. Both legs
share one root: the `Term::New` desugar discarded the author's written
`NewArg::Type` before anything could use it.
This was never an inference problem. The element type is EXPLICITLY
known — the author wrote `(con Int)`. The defect was that the desugar
threw that known type away and relied on re-discovering it from
downstream use; with no use (size-only), `RawBuf.new`'s result-only
forall var stayed unpinned, mono Unit-defaulted it, and codegen aborted
on the unregistered `RawBuf_new__Unit` intercept. The fix USES the
written type instead of inferring it.
Mechanism:
- desugar.rs: a polymorphic `(new T <elem> …)` (carrying a written
`NewArg::Type`) now SURVIVES into check instead of being lowered to
`(app T.new …)`. A monomorphic `(new Counter 42)` (no type-arg) keeps
the raw-buf.4 app-lowering unchanged.
- lib.rs synth `Term::New` arm: (a) validates the written element type
against the constructed type's `param_in` set via
`check_type_well_formed`, firing `ParamNotInRestrictedSet` naming the
forbidden element (leg 2) — synth is the correct site because it has
Env/registry access, unlike `pre_desugar_validation`; (b) binds the
result-only forall var DIRECTLY to the written type (`?a := Int`, a
trivial binding, no inference channel) by pushing a `FreeFnCall` whose
metas are the written concrete types, so mono mints
`RawBuf_new__<elem>` and never `__Unit`.
- mono.rs: `rewrite_mono_calls` and `interleave_slots` gain matching
`Term::New` arms that each consume exactly one free-fn slot at a
type-arg-bearing `Term::New` (mirroring synth's single observation,
pushed before the value-args), and `rewrite_mono_calls` reduces the
node to `(app <mangled> <value-args>)` so codegen never sees
`Term::New` and the lib.rs:2200 `unreachable!` stays valid. The two
walkers stay in lockstep.
The Unit-default policy in mono stays correct for genuinely-unobservable
vars (`is_empty(Nil)` etc.); only the case with a written `NewArg::Type`
is changed.
Alternatives rejected: an additive `type_args` field on `Term::App`
(~100 construction sites across 7 crates — a detour that builds a new
transport slot only to copy the already-known type into it); a runtime
type-witness parameter on `RawBuf.new` (invents a runtime value for a
pure type property); an identity-lambda wrapper carrying the element in
its param-type (hides a semantic property in a runtime construct). The
written type belongs where the author put it, carried to the one point
that consumes it.
Verification: both RED legs (committed

feat: reserve $ in the Form-A lexer (closes #44)
Enforces the `$`-in-authored-names reservation that fresh_binder (ailang-core::desugar) silently relied on. `fresh_binder` mints shadow-rename binders as <base>$<n>; its collision probe could not see an authored binder literally named <base>$<n> that binds later under the same (def, name) uniqueness key — the exact collapse class #43 closed. The `$`-for-synthetic convention (`$mp_N`, <hint>$lr_N, <base>$<n>) was held by discipline only. This makes it a lexer-enforced invariant: no Form-A identifier token may contain `$`. A one-line guard in tokenize rejects any token run containing `$` before int/float/ident classification, raising the new LexError::ReservedDollar { token, start }. It surfaces through the existing ParseError::Lex -> W::SurfaceParse -> surface-parse-error channel with zero new wiring — no new CheckError, no AST walker, no entry-point threading. Placement rationale (the load-bearing call): the threat vector is Form-A source only. The client LLM author is forbidden from emitting canonical .ail.json directly — it writes Form A exclusively; only the orchestrator hand-authors JSON in rare exceptions. So every authored identifier a hallucinating client could produce flows through the lexer. `$` is a reserved character (like parens) with no legitimate authored use in any position — unlike `.`/`/`, which DO have legitimate uses (std_list.map) and therefore live in the check layer (InvalidDefName) with AST-aware positional logic. No positional split for `$` means no walker; the lexer is the right boundary. An earlier draft put the reject in pre_desugar_validation justified by "a client could build .ail.json directly" — false under the authoring contract, so the simpler lexer reservation replaced it. Exemptions by scan order, not special-case: `$` inside string literals and comments stays legal because both are consumed by earlier branches of the scan loop, before a run is ever sliced. The six checked-in example files mentioning loop$lr_0 in comments keep parsing. Documented non-goals (honesty rule): the .ail.json deserialization path stays unguarded (the orchestrator's self-responsible channel); the fresh_binder probe-body simplification (issue Q4) is not bundled — only its now-false doc-comment is corrected to state the enforced invariant, scoped to Form-A authored identifiers. Verification (all run, all green): - 3 in-source lexer tests: reject on x$1, exemption for $ in string, exemption for $ in comment. RED confirmed pre-guard (tokenize("x$1") returned Ok([Ident]), expect_err panicked); GREEN after. - 2 integration tests (reserved_dollar_pin.rs): the reject reaches the public parse entry as ParseError::Lex(ReservedDollar); string exemption survives at parse level. - cargo test --workspace: green, 0 failed. - CLI: check on the comment-$ example (exit 0) and on the #43 shadow idiom raw_buf_int.ail (exit 0, buf->buf$1 rename minted post-parse, never re-lexed); a fresh $-binder source now rejected with the surface-parse-error diagnostic naming the token and byte offset. Spec: docs/specs/0057-reserved-dollar-in-names.md (grounding-check PASS). Plan: docs/plans/0112-reserved-dollar-in-names.md. |

fix: alpha-rename shadowing binders at desugar — A2b leg (closes #43)
The last open leg of the RawBuf owned-heap drop-leak cluster #43: the UniquenessTable shadow-name collapse. The side-table keys by (def_name, binder_name); a fn that shadows a binder name — the shipped `(let buf (new…) (let buf (set buf…) … (get buf)))` idiom — collapses every shadow onto one key. The outermost binding records last (on pop) and overwrites the inner ones, so codegen's scope-close drop gates read the collapsed consume_count for the innermost binding, misjudge its ownership, and suppress its drop. The owned slab leaked (live==1). Fix: desugar now alpha-renames any binder whose authored name shadows an enclosing binding to a fresh `<name>$<n>`, making the (def, name) key injective per fn. The rename is on-shadow-only and uniform across binder kinds (Let, flat-Match pattern-binders, Lam params, Loop binders); non-shadowing binders keep their authored name, so every existing fixture's desugared output is byte-identical (evidenced by the full pre-existing desugar suite passing unchanged). IR-neutral: codegen names heap by fresh SSA, never by the source binder name. No consumer of the uniqueness table changes — they all key by name, and the name is now a per-fn injective identity (acceptance criterion 5). The fix is entirely internal to ailang-core::desugar; uniqueness.rs gets only a doc-comment correction (its old text was wrong on two counts: "last = innermost by pop-order" was backwards, and "every shipping fixture has unique binder names" was false). Mechanism (vs. the spec's sketch): the threaded lexical scope became a `Scope` struct carrying `entries` keyed by each binder's EFFECTIVE (post-rename) name and `rename` mapping authored→effective. Keying entries by effective name is load-bearing, not cosmetic: the LetRec capture-detection reads `free_vars_in_term` of the desugared body (effective names) and filters by `scope.contains_key` — had entries stayed keyed by authored name, renaming an enclosing let would have made a captured shadowed binder invisible to capture detection (UnknownVar in the lifted fn). `insert_fixed` records identity renames for never-renamed binders (fn-params, LetRec name/params) so an inner renamable binder that shadows them is still detected. Alternatives rejected: (A) an AST id field and (B) a derived binding-path — both solve the deeper, SEPARATE problem of persistent AST provenance back to the authored form, which is certain to be needed eventually but is not required here; conflating the internal naming collision with provenance is a category error. C′ (this) reuses the existing fresh-name machinery and touches one pass. Verification: the three shipped Let-shadow tests (raw_buf_{int,float,bool}_shadow_rebind_drop_balances_rc_stats) reach live==0 (were RED at live==1); the flat-pattern differential (flat_pat_shadow_binder_does_not_leak_more_than_alpha_renamed) reaches its alpha-renamed control's live count (was 5 vs 3); a new desugar unit test (shadowing_let_is_alpha_renamed) pins the rename + reference resolution; full workspace suite green, no fixture output drift. Both no-change consumers re-verified by hand: match_lower.rs keys by the emitted (renamed) pattern binder, linearity builds table and lookups from the same desugared tree. Spec: docs/specs/0056-unique-binder-names.md. Plan: docs/plans/0111-unique-binder-names.md. |

iter intrinsic-bodies.1-mechanism (DONE 8/8): Term::Intrinsic leaf + cross-crate wiring (refs #9)
First iteration of the intrinsic-bodies milestone. Introduces the
Form-A `(intrinsic)` body marker as a new leaf AST term and wires it
through surface, checker, codegen, and a kernel_stub ratifier. The
prelude migration + hard-lockstep pin + dead-path removal are .2.
What landed (8 tasks):
Task 1 — Term::Intrinsic unit variant (ast.rs), tag "t":"intrinsic"
via the enum's rename_all=lowercase. Additive: no existing fixture
carries it, hashes bit-identical. In-core exhaustive-match arms
(canonical/hash/visit/pretty/desugar/workspace) added as leaves.
Task 2 — surface parse + print: (intrinsic) as a fn body-slot clause
and a lambda positional body, mapped to/from Term::Intrinsic.
Task 3 — cross-crate walker sweep (check/codegen/prose/ail-main):
leaf no-op/identity arms at every no-wildcard Term match the
compiler flagged.
Task 4 — checker: new Env.current_module_kernel_tier flag (m.kernel
|| m.name=="prelude"), set alongside current_module. A def whose
body is intrinsic (top-level fn OR instance-method lambda, via the
shared is_intrinsic_body helper) is checked signature-only; an
intrinsic body outside kernel-tier/prelude is rejected with
intrinsic-outside-kernel-tier.
Task 5 — codegen: an intrinsic-bodied fn routes through the existing
try_emit_primitive_instance_body / intercepts::lookup path; if no
intercept fired it is an internal error, never a lower_term
fallthrough. lower_term and the synth walker get Term::Intrinsic
internal-error arms (an intrinsic body reaching either is an
escape bug).
Task 6 — answer intercept (ret i64 42) registered in INTERCEPTS;
the `answer : () -> Int` intrinsic added to STUB_AIL;
examples/kernel_intrinsic_smoke.ail added so schema_coverage
observes Term::Intrinsic in the examples/ corpus.
Task 7 — E2E ratifier: examples/kernel_answer.ail calls
kernel_stub.answer and prints 42; answer_intrinsic_builds_and_runs_printing_42
asserts it end-to-end (source → native).
Task 8 — design/contracts/0002-data-model.md gains the
{ "t": "intrinsic" } Term entry + fn/lam prose; form_a.md grammar
note updated.
Verification:
cargo test --workspace → 669 passed, 0 failed (baseline 667 +2:
intrinsic_in_user_module_is_rejected, answer_intrinsic_builds_and_runs_printing_42).
bench/check.py + bench/compile_check.py → 0 regressed.
Reject E2E (subprocess ail check --json, exit 1, code
intrinsic-outside-kernel-tier) GREEN.
Round-trip + hash pins GREEN — Term::Intrinsic is additive, no
existing fixture carries it, no hash moved.
Three implementation completions beyond the plan (all behaviour-
preserving, surfaced during execution):
1. The signature-only skip had to apply at the mono pass's two
synth-on-body re-entry sites (collect_mono_targets,
collect_residuals_ordered), not only check_fn — else an intrinsic
body hits synth's Term::Intrinsic internal-error guard. Repaired by
extracting the shared crate::is_intrinsic_body helper and applying
it at all three synth-on-body paths. Not a representation surprise:
the same signature-only treatment, more call sites.
2. The compiler-enumerated exhaustive-match set was broader than the
plan's named grep set (the plan anticipated this and made the sweep
compile-driven). Extra leaf arms in core desugar/workspace, check
reuse-as + qualify_workspace_term, codegen synth_with_extras,
ail/src/main.rs, and four test targets.
3. Fixture corrections: emit_answer needed the body-close
(block terminator) the plan snippet omitted; kernel_answer.ail's
main is (ret Unit)(effects IO) using (app print ...) since
io/print_int does not exist (the plan flagged this for the
implementer to resolve against real effect-op names).
IR snapshots (hello/sum/list/max3/ws_main.ll) refreshed: purely
additive @ail_kernel_stub_answer fn+adapter+closure, emitted into
every workspace exactly as the pre-existing @ail_kernel_stub_new
already was (kernel_stub is auto-injected; confirmed new was present
in the pre-iter hello.ll baseline). No user-fn IR changed.
The .2 iteration migrates the 18 prelude dummy bodies to (intrinsic),
upgrades registry_contains_all_legacy_arms to a source<->registry
bijection pin, and removes the dead body-lowering path.

iter prep.3-kernel-tier-modules (DONE 9/9): kernel-tier modules + param-in + stub crate — closes #33
Terminal iteration of the kernel-extension-mechanics milestone. Ships
the four language-level mechanisms named in the spec's § Goal:
Module.kernel + TypeDef.param-in schema, their Form-A surface,
flag-driven kernel-tier auto-injection, and generic param-in checker
enforcement with a new diagnostic.
Schema (Tasks 1+2). Module gains a `kernel: bool` field
(skip_serializing_if = is_false), TypeDef gains a
`param_in: BTreeMap<String, BTreeSet<String>>` field
(skip-if-empty, kebab-renamed to "param-in"). Both fields are
strictly additive — every pre-existing fixture's canonical-JSON hash
is bit-stable except `prelude.ail`, which intentionally gains
`(kernel)`. The struct-literal sweep covered ~104 Module sites and
~35 TypeDef sites across the workspace; the additive serde-default
covers JSON deserialise paths, only Rust struct literals broke.
Form-A surface (Tasks 3+4). `(kernel)` is a bare module-header
attribute; `(param-in (a Int Float) (b Str))` is one outer
TypeDef-body clause carrying one or more inner var-lists (OQ1
decision — mirrors `(ctors …)`, one parser arm, deterministic
BTreeMap iteration). Both round-trip Form-A → JSON → Form-A
bit-identical.
Workspace-load migration (Task 5). The hardcoded `&["prelude"]`
literal at loader.rs:108 became a `modules.values().filter(|m|
m.kernel)` derivation; `parse_prelude()` injection stays because
the prelude has no on-disk manifest in user workspaces. Prelude
now carries `(kernel)` in its source, so the new filter picks it
up automatically. Code-path migration only — observable behaviour
is identical (prelude_free_fns.rs stays green). prelude hash
re-pinned (af372f28c726f29f) with Honesty-Rule provenance comment.
WorkspaceLoadError::ReservedModuleName diagnostic prose
repurposed: any built-in kernel module name is reserved
(currently prelude + kernel_stub), not specifically prelude. CLI
mapping at main.rs updated in lockstep.
Stub crate (Task 6). New `crates/ailang-kernel-stub/` is a
zero-dependency leaf crate carrying only `pub const STUB_AIL:
&str` with the Form-A source of the kernel_stub module (one
parametric TypeDef with param-in, one ctor). The parse hop —
`parse_kernel_stub()` — lives in ailang-surface next to
parse_prelude, keeping the crate-dependency graph acyclic
(`ailang-surface → ailang-kernel-stub → ailang-core`, no
back-edge). The stub is injected unconditionally in all builds as
the ratifying fixture for the kernel-extension mechanism; future
base extensions may add more or retire the stub. Drift-pinned by
`kernel_stub_module_round_trips`.
Checker (Task 7). New `CheckError::ParamNotInRestrictedSet`
variant + code() + ctx() arms + enforcement in
`check_type_well_formed`'s Type::Con arm — generic, data-driven
from the TypeDef, mentions no specific extension type. Two
in-source tests pin both the rejection (`Str` outside `{Int,
Float}`) and the acceptance (`Int` inside) paths.
Workspace-load integration tests (Task 8). New
`workspace_kernel.rs` integration-test crate with three tests:
auto-import without explicit `(import …)` declaration, two
kernel-tier modules co-load, explicit-import-overrides-auto-
import precedence preserved. Loader is import-tree-only so the
auto-import tests use a bridge module that brings the kernel
module into the workspace via the import graph — docstring
captures the reachability nuance for future readers.
Doc-state transitions (Task 9). INDEX.md kernel-extensions row
annotation transitions from "design accepted 2026-05-28; impl in
progress" to "mechanisms milestone closed 2026-05-28; raw-buf and
series milestones pending". Whitepaper STATUS + auto-import +
param-in sections transitioned forward→present for shipped
mechanisms; forward-tense survives only in sections describing
the still-pending raw-buf/series milestones (per Honesty-Rule).
data-model contract gains anchor blocks for both new schema
fields.
Side-effect: every binary's IR snapshot now contains ~52 lines
for `drop_kernel_stub_StubT` because the stub is auto-injected
into every workspace load. Snapshots refreshed; e2e expects 4
modules per workspace (prelude + kernel_stub + entry + zero or
more user modules) instead of the previous 3.
Plan defects scrubbed in the implementation (folded back into
the planner template via the planner's self-review checklist
next time): Task 4 sample test src used fictional
`(ctors (MkT a))` list form (project grammar is per-`(ctor MkT
a)`); Task 6 original wiring would have created a cycle
ailang-surface → ailang-kernel-stub → ailang-surface (inverted —
stub crate is zero-dep, parse hop lives in surface); Task 7 in-
source tests referenced a fictional `check_type_in_module`
helper (used the existing Workspace + check_workspace
convention); Task 8 first integration test expected loader to
auto-load kernel modules from disk (loader is import-tree-only;
tests use a bridge module).
Concern-5 fix folded in pre-commit: workspace.rs ReservedModuleName
doc-prose initially said "in test/dev builds" for kernel_stub —
but stub is unconditionally injected in all builds. Doc copy
tightened to present-state per Honesty-Rule.
Stats: 0 spec-review-loops, 0 quality-review-loops, 2 sweep-script
retries on Task 2 (brace-depth bug on nested vec![Ctor{…}],
recovered via per-file checkout + rewritten anchor-on-existing-
field sweep), 1 e2e-snapshot refresh on Task 6.

AST variant + `NewArg::Type|Value` enum end-to-end through schema /
surface / checker, with two new diagnostics
(`NewTypeNotConstructible`, `NewArgKindMismatch`), a new arm in
prep.1's workspace-wide normalisation pre-pass `qualify_workspace_term`
that rewrites bare `Term::New.type_name` to qualified form
(symmetric to the existing `Term::Ctor` arm), and the data-model.md
+ form_a.md anchor additions. Codegen out of scope per spec; codegen
sites get `CodegenError::Internal` arms naming the raw-buf milestone
as the carrier.
Verification:
- `cargo test --workspace`: 654 tests passing, 0 failed.
- 3 new in-source checker tests pin the elaboration paths:
`new_resolves_via_type_scope` (the spec's worked Counter example
checks cleanly), `new_type_not_constructible` (missing `new` def
in home module fires the new diagnostic), `new_arg_kind_mismatch_value_where_type`
(kind-mismatch detection).
- 2 new schema-drift pins (`term_new_round_trips`,
`term_new_type_arg_round_trips`) ratify the JSON byte shape:
`{"t": "new", "type": "<TypeName>", "args": [{"kind": "type"|"value",
"value": ...}]}`.
- 1 new surface round-trip pin exercises mixed-kind args through
Form-A → JSON → Form-A.
- 44+ exhaustive Term-match sites across 24 files extended with
`Term::New` arms — workspace-wide cargo build clean.
Concerns documented inline:
- `crates/ailang-core/tests/schema_coverage.rs` deliberately does
NOT register `VariantTag::TermNew` in the `EXPECTED_VARIANTS`
set. The coverage test asserts every declared variant is
observed in the .ail fixture corpus; no .ail fixture in the
current tree emits `"t": "new"` (codegen-runnable Term::New
programs require the raw-buf milestone's plugin registry).
Registering would fail the coverage check. The `visit_term` arm
IS extended (compile-forced); only the enum registration is
deferred. Inline rationale in the source. Future milestone that
ships a Term::New fixture extends both sides.
- `crates/ailang-surface/src/print.rs` `write_term` Term::New arm
was added in Task 1 (not Task 2 as planned), because without it
ailang-core's tests fail to compile (the surface crate is in
the dependency graph of ailang-core's test binaries). Task 2's
round-trip pin verified the arm's correctness.
- Task 3 (synth elaboration) needed one implementer re-loop: the
first attempt over-qualified within-module type-references via
`qualify_local_types` on `new`'s signature when the home module
was the calling module itself. Fixed by skipping qualification
when `home_module == env.current_module`.
Architectural composition with prep.1: `Term::New` joins
`Term::Ctor` as a `type_name`-bearing site that goes through
`qualify_workspace_term`'s bare→qualified rewrite before the
checker sees it. The checker's `synth` arm for `Term::New`
therefore receives an already-qualified `type_name` (or a local
bare name for same-module construction).
Milestone status: kernel-extension-mechanics (Gitea #6) advances
2/3 iters. Next: prep.3 (kernel-tier modules + param-in), issue #33.

convention: counter-prefix file naming across docs/specs/, docs/plans/, design/contracts/, design/models/
All 176 files in the four accumulating directories now use a zero-padded 4-digit counter prefix that reflects creation order (`NNNN-slug.md`). The counter is assigned per directory in strict git-log creation order; ties broken alphabetically by original name. The old `YYYY-MM-DD-` prefix on docs/specs/ and docs/plans/ files is dropped — the date is recoverable from git log and the counter carries the ordering. A file's counter is stable for the life of the file: never reassigned, never reused, never compacted. Deleted files retire their counter; subsequent files do not fill the gap. This is the property that lets cross-references stay literal — refs use the full filename including the counter (`design/contracts/0007-honesty-rule.md`) so they grep cleanly and resolve directly without a glob step. 313 cross-references updated across .md/.rs/.toml/.c/.json files (test pins, include_str! paths, design-INDEX entries, baseline notes, runtime C comments, inter-contract markdown links incl. bare basename and `../models/foo.md` forms). CLAUDE.md gets a new "File-naming convention" section spelling out the rule and rationale. skills/brainstorm/SKILL.md and skills/planner/SKILL.md updated so new spec/plan creation produces counter-prefixed names from the start. The full test suite (cargo test --workspace) passes. |

iter operator-routing-eq-ord.1 (DONE 13/13): drop comparator builtins, route through Eq/Ord
Closes Gitea #1. Realises the "P2 follow-up" called out in examples/prelude.ail:9 — removes the surface comparator names `==` / `!=` / `<` / `<=` / `>` / `>=` from the language entirely, routes the LLM-author's `(app eq …)` / `(app compare …)` / `(app ne|lt|le|gt|ge …)` through prelude.Eq / prelude.Ord class- dispatch, ships six named Float-comparison fns (`float_eq`/`float_ne`/`float_lt`/`float_le`/`float_gt`/`float_ge`) so Float keeps comparability without an Eq/Ord instance, and emits primitive instance bodies with `alwaysinline` so the -O0 IR shape stays at one instruction per comparison. Plan-task journal (13 tasks, single atomic iter per Approach A): Task 1 — Bootstrap: 4 new fixtures (eq_user_adt_smoke.ail, eq_float_must_fail.ail, float_compare_smoke.ail, operator_unbound_check.ail) + 5 new E2E/pin tests as RED starting state. All 5 confirmed RED at start: north-star fixed `NoInstance Eq Unit` (preserved by Unit-eq opening line intentionally added in plan-self-review); float_compare unknown `float_eq`; operator-name typechecked (== still polymorphic); must-fail diagnostic lacked `float_eq`; alwaysinline absent from IR. Task 2 — Codegen alwaysinline + intercept arms: introduced `intercept_emit_wants_alwaysinline` allowlist + appended ` alwaysinline` between `)` and `{` of the `define` line in `emit_fn`; added 9 new intercept arms to `try_emit_primitive_instance_body` — `eq__Int`/`eq__Bool`/ `eq__Unit` + the six `float_*` arms. Task 3 — Prelude reshape: `instance Eq Unit` added; Eq Int/Bool bodies become placeholder-`false` (intercept overrides); six `float_*` free fns added; line-9 P2-follow-up comment removed. Lockstep hash re-pins: prelude_module_hash_pin (3abe0d3fa3c11c99 → new), mono_hash_stability six body-hash literals (eq__Int/Bool/Str + compare__Int/Bool/Str all shifted because placeholder body changes the canonical hash). IR-snapshot regen (hello/list/max3/sum/ws_main) rolled forward into this task at orchestrator's pragmatic call — prelude shift forces the snapshots immediately. Task 4 — Fixture migration: 58 .ail fixtures rewritten (`(app == …)` → `(app eq …)`, etc.; Float-typed operand sites to `(app float_eq …)` / `(app float_lt …)`). eq_ord_user_adt.ail:21 inner `==` → `eq` migration with lockstep eq_ord_e2e.rs:134 body-hash re-pin (3c4cf040cb4e8bb2 → new). Two prose snapshots accepted; deps test + 5 hash_pin literals updated as cascading consequences. Task 5 — Test-scaffold migration: all 8 in-source `#[cfg(test)] mod tests` AST-literal sites threaded (desugar.rs:2414, check/lib.rs:5656/6092/6220, codegen/lib.rs sites). 7 obsolete in-source tests deleted (5 eq_typechecks + 2 lower_eq ADT/Fn rejection — coverage moves to E2E eq_user_adt_smoke + eq_float_must_fail). 2 additional letrec tests deleted (single-module check env can't resolve eq/ge without prelude auto-import; covered by workspace E2E). Task 6 — Lit-pattern desugar: build_eq emits `Term::Var { name: "eq" }` instead of `"=="` at desugar.rs:1109; doc-comment rewritten to describe class-dispatch. Task 7 — Dead-machinery deletion sweep (compile-gated): typchecker builtins (install + list comparator entries deleted); codegen builtin_binop_typed (10 comparator arms deleted from synth.rs, table reduced to arithmetic core); lower_eq fn entirely deleted; `==` short-circuit in lower_app deleted; `is_static_callee` `==` clause deleted; `is_arithmetic_or_comparison_op` renamed to `is_arithmetic_op` + caller-update at codegen/lib.rs:2152 + :2529. Dead `poly_a_a_to_bool` helpers also removed. Workspace build green after compile gate — every caller of the deleted surface was migrated by Tasks 4-6. Task 8 — Float-aware NoInstance diagnostic: check/lib.rs:856-880 addendum extended to name `float_eq` / `float_lt` as the explicit alternative for Eq/Ord at Float; eq_float_noinstance.rs:32-44 assertion extended. Task 9 — IR snapshot regen: subsumed by Task 3 (prelude shift forced immediate snapshot regen; deferring to Task 9 would have left the workspace red between tasks). Task 10 — Prose-projection cleanup: 6 comparator arms deleted from binop_info; 3 in-source mod-tests updated/deleted (comparator-infix rendering would be dishonest now that the operators are no longer language identifiers). Task 11 — Contract updates: 5 design files rewritten to the class-dispatch present — float-semantics.md (arithmetic guarantees retained on +/-/*/; comparison guarantees transferred from ==/!=/< to float_eq/float_ne/float_lt/etc.); prelude-classes.md (Eq Unit added to instance list; new paragraph on six float_* fns; Float-no-Eq/Ord clause gains `→ use float_eq` cross-reference); str-abi.md (clause "REMAIN primitive operators" rewritten to describe class-method dispatch); scope-boundaries.md (multiple operator-name and Pattern::Lit-desugar clauses rewritten); authoring-surface.md (==, <= dropped from operator-example list). Task 12 — Initial acceptance gate: workspace 638/0 GREEN; bench/compile_check + cross_lang 0 regressed; bench/check.py flagged 4 regressions on bench_closure_chain (+29% bump_s, +47% rc_s, +29% bump_rss_kb, +48% rc_rss_kb). Orchestrator initially classified as DONE-with-concerns; Boss reclassified as PARTIAL-via-acceptance-#8-fail after independent re-run, extended iter scope to Task 13. Task 13 — Direct icmp intercept arms (Boss-extension): try_emit_primitive_instance_body gains direct-icmp arms for lt__Int / le__Int / gt__Int / ge__Int / ne__Int, bypassing the compare__Int → Ordering → match indirection that allocated one Ordering ctor per call in tight loops. Each new arm inherits `alwaysinline` via the existing allowlist (extended accordingly). New IR pin test `ord_int_intercept_ir_pin.rs` + smoke fixture `ord_int_intercept_smoke.ail` ratify the optimization — opt -O2 -S confirms zero `call @ail_prelude_lt__Int` in optimized IR; the icmp folds directly at every use site. Bool variants (lt__Bool/etc.) deliberately NOT added — no bench/example calls Ord at Bool; spec-extension permits skipping if unreachable at bench level. Family can be extended symmetrically when first Bool-ordered perf workload appears. Bench-gate post-Task-13: bench_closure_chain bump_s -6.05%, rc_s -2.67%, bump_rss_kb -0.77%, rc_rss_kb +0.46% — all four previously-regressed metrics back inside tolerance. Full bench corpus: 36 metrics, 0 regressed, 0 improved beyond tolerance, 36 stable. bench/check.py exit 0 ✓; bench/compile_check.py exit 0 ✓; bench/cross_lang.py exit 0 ✓. Workspace: 640 passed, 0 failed across all binaries (delta vs. milestone start: +5 new E2E/pin tests added in Task 1 + 1 IR pin added in Task 13 − 9 in-source mod tests deleted as obsolete net ≈ −3). The eq_user_adt_smoke fixture's Unit-opening line was the deliberate RED-first device added in planner self-review so the north-star wouldn't accidentally GREEN at start (user-ADT-Eq on Point with hand-written instance was already operable today; the milestone's actual delivery is operator-name death + Eq Unit + Float-named-fns + cleanup of the two-pathy primitive comparator machinery). Net delta: 96 files changed, 1760 insertions, 1101 deletions; 12 net-new files (6 new fixtures, 5 new E2E/pin tests, 1 stats file). main passes-test-count: 640 (was 633 pre-iter, accounting for the deletions). Spec-vs-acceptance addendum: spec §Testing strategy anticipated the bench-gate-regression case with two recovery paths (`alwaysinline` investigation or "spec needs revisiting toward α"). Task 13 is the third path — direct intercept arms for `lt`/etc. that bypass the compare→match path entirely. The spec's contingency clause was thus generous enough to absorb Task 13 without spec revision, but a future iter that hits a class-method primitive where the body shape introduces a similar codegen cost (Ordering allocation, RC tax, deferred-init) should expect a parallel extension. The pattern is "primitive instance whose canonical body indirects through other class methods that allocate" → add a direct-emit intercept arm + alwaysinline + IR-shape pin. Concerns absorbed: - Codegen lower_app / resolve_top_level_fn gained a prelude-fallback lookup so bare monomorphic prelude fns (`float_eq` etc.) resolve from non-prelude modules without explicit `prelude.float_eq` qualifier. Mirrors the typechecker's implicit prelude import — not in plan but necessary infra for the named-fn surface to be callable. - Recon's "≈10 fixtures" estimate was 6× too low — 58 actual. Mechanical migration; no design impact. - Recon caught 4 in-source AST-literal sites the spec missed (lib.rs:5656 `>=` site + three codegen/lib.rs sites); Task 5 covered all. - Recon caught 2 contract files outside the spec's update set that directly contradicted the milestone (str-abi.md + scope-boundaries.md "REMAIN primitive operators" / "Pattern::Lit desugar to ==" clauses); Task 11 covered all 5.

design/ + source rustdoc: replace opaque shorthand with content phrases + links
Reader-facing prose and rustdoc carried opaque shorthand like

an inline content phrase plus, where applicable, a Markdown link to
the file that defines the referenced concept.

iter embedding-abi-m1.1 (PARTIAL 3/7): schema + surface + baseline prerequisites; plan Repair
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). INDEX line added when the full iter lands post-re-dispatch. |

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 it.1: loop/recur additive — Term::Loop/Term::Recur/LoopBinder end-to-end
Iteration-discipline milestone, 1 of 3.

Four Recur* CheckError variants. Strictly additive: zero deletions touch tail-app/tail-do or the seven existing block_terminated sites — this is what makes the destructive it.3 safe. recur synth = fresh metavar (resolves the plan's flagged Type::unit() risk). loop_counter->55, loop_in_lambda->49, four negatives fire, tail-app byte-identical, cargo test --workspace 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 clippy-sweep: clear all 61 cargo clippy warnings
Hygiene sweep across the workspace under `cargo clippy --workspace
--all-targets`. Before: 61 warnings. After: zero. Tests stay 563
green, `cargo doc` stays at zero warnings, and all three bench
scripts exit 0 against existing baselines.
Twelve lint classes, three fix shapes:
- Documentation hygiene (~32 hits): `doc_lazy_continuation` resolved
by adding blank lines before continuation paragraphs or rephrasing
the offending line; plus four `empty_line_after_doc_comments` hits
in workspace.rs where eight `///` blocks left orphan by form-a.1
T5 test relocation were converted to plain `//`.
- Idiomatic refactors (~16 hits): `.err().expect()` → `.expect_err()`,
redundant `.into_iter()` and `.into()` removed, `|f| g(f)` →
`g`, `.trim().split_whitespace()` → `.split_whitespace()`,
`push_str("x")` → `push('x')`, two manual `impl Default` flipped
to `#[derive(Default)]` + `#[default]`, two nested `if let Some(_)
= …` collapsed.
- Block extraction (1 hit): a 13-line block inside an `else if`
condition in synth's Var-arm extracted to a new helper
`is_class_method_dispatch(name, env)` next to
`qualifier_is_class_shape`.
Three `#[allow]`s with inline rationale where clippy's suggestion
would lose meaning: `only_used_in_recursion` on walk_pattern (the
parameter preserves the five-fn walker-framework signature
uniformity), 2× `if_same_then_else` on qualify_local_types shapes
(two branches encode semantically distinct disqualification
reasons), `too_many_arguments` on `Emitter::new` (8 workspace-flat
tables; bundling would just rename boilerplate).

Two unrelated hygiene iters bundled because they shipped together in one autonomous-while-Boss-away batch: - iter rustdoc-sweep: cleared all 23 `cargo doc --workspace --no-deps` warnings (17 in ailang-check + 4 in ailang-core + 2 in ailang-surface). Two warning classes: pub-doc-comment links to pub(crate)/private items (15 hits — replaced with plain backtick-code-spans), and unresolved/ambiguous links (8 hits — fully-qualified, disambiguated to fn-form, or escaped). No behaviour change; tests 562 → 562. - iter drift-test-narrowing: design_schema_drift.rs now scans §"Data model" only via new helper data_model_section(), instead of full DESIGN.md. Closes the audit-form-a-precursor [high] "anchor-elsewhere-passes-silently" failure mode. All 38 anchors verified pre-edit to live in §"Data model" so the tightening doesn't regress to red. New pin data_model_section_is_bounded guards the extractor against silent regression. Tests 562 → 563. |

iter 22b.1.1: ClassDef/InstanceDef AST + downstream match arms
Adds Def::Class(ClassDef) and Def::Instance(InstanceDef) variants per Decision 11 §"Form-A schema". All optional fields (superclass, doc, default body) carry skip_serializing_if so canonical-JSON bytes of pre-22b fixtures stay bit-identical. Downstream match-on-Def sites are extended with explicit Class/Instance arms. Behaviour for 22b.1 is placeholder (skip in typecheck/codegen, one-line summary in pretty/manifest, placeholder marker in prose/print) with TODO comments naming the deferred sub-iters (22b.2 typecheck, 22b.3 codegen, 22b.4 prose-projection arms). |

check: mode-strict-because suppression (iter 19b)
Closes the 19a/19a.1/19b arc. Corpus signal from 19a.1 (5/65
fixtures fire over-strict-mode, all deliberate RC codegen-test
fixtures) justified shipping the suppress mechanism end-to-end.
Schema: Suppress { code, because } on FnDef. Pre-19b hashes
bit-identical via skip_serializing_if. Typechecker drops matching
diagnostics; empty 'because' is Error severity; wrong codes are
silent no-ops (open-set registry).
Form-A: (suppress (code "...") (because "...")) clause, parser
+ printer round-trip clean. Form-B: '// @suppress <code>: <reason>'
above the doc string, lossless contract metadata.
5 RC fixtures migrated (.ail.json + .ailx + .prose.txt). Corpus
signal: 5/65 -> 0/65. Lint still fires on any future fn that's
accidentally over-strict without an authored reason.
Test counts: ailang-check 55->61, ailang-core 26->28, ailang-surface
21->26, ailang-prose 49->52, e2e 70 unchanged.
Known debt: .ailx comment headers lost on regen (ail render's
contract excludes comments); parse_suppress_attr accepts
duplicate code/because attrs without diagnose (bounded by canonical
print order).

Iter 18e: (drop-iterative) annotation + worklist allocator
Closes the 18-arc's stack-recursion limit. Recursive drop cascades from 18c.4 overflow on long ADT chains (Linux's 8 MB default stack maxes out around 1M cells of List). The new opt-in (drop-iterative) annotation on a Def::Type switches the synthesised drop_<m>_<T> body from recursive to iterative-with- explicit-worklist for that type. Schema: - TypeDef.drop_iterative: bool. Default false; serde-skip when false so existing fixtures' canonical JSON hashes stay stable. - Form-A: (drop-iterative) clause inside (data T ...). Worklist runtime (4 new ABI symbols in runtime/rc.c): - ailang_drop_worklist_new(initial_capacity) - ailang_drop_worklist_push(wl, ptr) - ailang_drop_worklist_pop(wl) -> ptr - ailang_drop_worklist_free(wl) Heap stretchy buffer, doubling on overflow, null-filtering on push. Lean 4 / Roc precedent documented in the runtime; the slot-repurposing strategy was considered and rejected because not every box has a free pointer-typed slot to thread the worklist through (Cons head is i64, slot 1 is ptr but it's the field we're following — no free slot). Codegen (emit_iterative_drop_fn_for_type): for a drop_iterative type, drop_<m>_<T>(ptr %p) emits a worklist loop. Fields of the SAME annotated type push onto the worklist (mono-typed); fields of DIFFERENT types call their own drop fn directly (recursive on those, but only if THEY are themselves recursive — i.e. one level of cascade jump maximum). Mono-typed-worklist is sound for the deep-self- recursion case the iter targets (List of List of T just needs the spine flattened). Tests: - examples/rc_drop_iterative_long_list — 1M-cell List of Int with (drop-iterative) annotation. - alloc_rc_drop_iterative_handles_million_cell_list E2E — builds + runs under --alloc=rc, asserts clean exit. With annotation: exits 0. Without annotation (control): SIGSEGV at exit code 139 (verified by hand). Worklist is load- bearing. - iter18e_drop_iterative_emits_worklist_body_no_self_recursion IR-shape: worklist body has br to loop_head AND no direct recursive call into drop_<m>_<T>. - iter18e_no_annotation_keeps_recursive_drop_body — control: unannotated variant still emits the 18c.4 recursive shape. - 3 surface parse-tests for the annotation round-trip. Test deltas: e2e 58 -> 61 (+3), surface 18 -> 21 (+3). All other buckets unchanged. cargo test --workspace green. Known debt (deliberate): - Mono-typed worklist: cross-type drop-iterative fields call the other type's drop fn directly. A heterogeneous worklist would be more general but adds tag tracking complexity for a case (drop-iterative T containing drop-iterative T') that's narrower than the deep-self- recursion target. Documented in emit_iterative_drop_fn_for_type's doc. - Closure / Type::Var / Type::Forall fields fall back to shallow ailang_rc_dec via field_drop_call — same as the recursive variant. - Dynamic-tag partial-drop fallback (head_or_zero epilogue shallow dec when moved_slots non-empty) — out of scope per brief. |

Iter 18d.1: Term::ReuseAs schema + linearity check
Schema floor for explicit reuse hints. Adds Term::ReuseAs
{ source: Box<Term>, body: Box<Term> } with serde tag "reuse-as",
form-A (reuse-as <source> <body>). Schema choice (wrapper, not
modifier-on-Ctor) and rationale recorded in DESIGN.md.
Codegen is identity under all --alloc strategies — lower body,
drop source on the floor. Iter 18d.2 will lower this as the
in-place rewrite under --alloc=rc.
User-facing diagnostics:
- typecheck reuse-as-non-allocating-body: body must be a
Term::Ctor or Term::Lam, the two AST shapes that allocate.
Other shapes (literal, var, app, ...) emit this with a
suggested_rewrite that drops the wrapper.
- linearity reuse-as-source-not-bare-var: source must be a
Term::Var referring to an in-scope binder. Anything else
(literal, nested expression) is rejected here. Suggested
rewrite drops the wrapper.
- linearity use-after-consume at a reuse-as site: source must
not have been consumed earlier in the body. Suggested rewrite
drops the wrapper.
- Visiting reuse-as marks source consumed for the rest of the
body, so a subsequent use of the same binder flags
use-after-consume against it.
Uniqueness inference treats source as Consume — the consume
shows up in the side table for the codegen consumer.
Tests:
- 4 surface parse-tests (round-trip, no-args, one-arg, full
parse_term/term_to_form_a round-trip).
- 1 typecheck unit test (non-allocating body).
- 2 linearity unit tests (non-var source, after-consume).
- 1 integration test (happy-path map_inc in all-explicit mode
is linearity-clean).
- 1 E2E test running the canonical map_inc-via-reuse-as fixture
under --alloc=gc, asserting stdout 9.
- New fixture examples/reuse_as_demo.{ailx,ail.json}.
Test deltas: E2E 55 -> 56, ailang-check unit 43 -> 46,
ailang-check workspace 8 -> 9, surface 14 -> 18. cargo test
--workspace green. No existing fixture's canonical JSON changed.

Iter 18c.1: Term::Clone schema (no inc emission yet)
Adds (clone X) as a new Term variant. Form-A:
(let p (expensive_fn x)
(do consume_a (clone p)) ; explicit RC inc — needs 18c.3
(do consume_b p))
Schema floor for the LLM-aware RC design (Decision 10): explicit
clone is the author-visible alternative to implicit sharing. In
18c.1 the variant is purely additive — typechecker treats it as
identity (same type as inner), codegen lowers it to the inner
term's IR with no extra calls. Iter 18c.3 will replace the
codegen identity-arm with a single call:
Term::Clone { value } =>
let v = self.lower_term(value, ...)?;
self.emit("call void @ailang_rc_inc(ptr {v})");
Ok(v)
Match-arm count: ~10 sites across 6 files, all mechanical
structural recursion through `value`. The codegen `lower_term`
arm carries an explicit comment marking the 18c.3 emission seam.
Hash invariant: `(clone X)` uses a new serde tag "clone" that no
pre-18c.1 fixture contains. Every existing fixture's canonical
JSON is bit-identical (git diff examples/ empty).
New fixture examples/clone_demo.{ailx,ail.json}:
(let x 42 (do io/print_int (clone x)))
Stdout 42 under both --alloc=gc and --alloc=rc.
Tail-position propagates through clone (verify_tail_positions
treats `(clone tail-call)` as itself a tail call), per the
identity-of-clone semantics in 18c.1.
Verified:
- cargo build --workspace clean
- cargo test --workspace green: 52 e2e (+1), 14 surface parse
(+2 for clone tests), all other buckets unchanged
- ail render round-trip exact
- clone_demo --alloc=gc → 42; --alloc=rc → 42

Iter 18a: (borrow T) / (own T) mode annotations on fn signatures
Adds form-A surface (borrow T) / (own T) wrappers in fn-type
params and ret slots. Internally these are not new Type variants
but per-position metadata on Type::Fn:
Type::Fn { params, param_modes, ret, ret_mode, effects }
enum ParamMode { Implicit, Own, Borrow }
This keeps Type itself unchanged, so unification, occurs, apply,
and ~190 other Type match-arms in the typechecker need no new
branch. Fields use serde skip-if-default predicates so canonical
JSON hashes for every pre-18a fixture stay bit-identical (sum,
list, hof, closure, list_map, etc.: zero diff under git).
Iter 18a is purely additive: typechecker treats modes as
transparent (mode-compat check deferred to 18c), no codegen
change (--alloc=gc / Boehm path unchanged), no linearity
enforcement. The annotation info flows into the JSON side-table
that 18c will consume.
Equality of mode slices is length-tolerant: a vec![] (the form
written by mechanically-updated construction sites that elide
modes) compares equal to vec![Implicit; n]. This kept the patch
from being a 100-site mechanical migration through the
typechecker. 18c will choose: keep the slack, or normalise to
full-length on construction.
New fixture examples/borrow_own_demo.{ailx,ail.json} exercises
both modes. list_length declares (borrow (con List)); sum_list
declares (own (con List)). Stdout: 3 then 6.
Documentation: DESIGN.md schema-additions block clarified that
modes are Type::Fn metadata (not Type variants); migration plan
flag rename --memory=rc → --alloc=rc to match the existing CLI
flag.
Verification:
- cargo build --workspace green
- cargo test --workspace green (154 tests, +1 vs baseline 153)
- git diff examples/{sum,list,hof,closure,list_map,...}.ail.json: empty
- borrow_own_demo runtime stdout: "3\n6\n"
- canonical JSON contains "param_modes":["borrow"] and ["own"]

Iter 16d: chain-terminator via __unreachable__ builtin
Eliminates the Unit-typed chain default that 16c left in place.
Adds __unreachable__ : forall a. a — codegen lowers to LLVM
unreachable. The 16a/16c chain machinery now uses it as the
deepest fall-through, so exhaustive matches with non-Unit arms
no longer need a (case _ ...) workaround.
- check/builtins.rs: register __unreachable__ as Forall(a, a).
- codegen: Term::Var "__unreachable__" emits LLVM unreachable
and sets block_terminated; If/Match/fn-body gate downstream
work on that flag.
- desugar: chain default switched from Lit{Unit} to Var.
- examples/lit_pat: categorize_first's trailing _ arm removed.
Hash changes from c4faec3abc2ed388 to 644de0c0ec15fc17.
- examples/unreachable_demo: positive fixture using safe_div
with __unreachable__ in the impossible branch.
- e2e + desugar tests: 122 → 124 (+2).
Path-a from 16b.2 planning: real primitive over a desugar-time
exhaustiveness pre-check (which would need cross-module type
registry access from desugar).

Iter 16b.7: nested LetRec mutual capture (params, not name)
Inner LetRec capturing outer LetRec's params now lifts cleanly via
the existing post-order traversal — outer's params are KnownType
in inner's outer-scope, so 16b.2's fast-path handles them. Inner
LetRec capturing outer's NAME remains rejected (closure-of-self
in body, deferred separately).
Plus hardening: lift.rs's deferred path tracks the outer LetRec
name in a parallel `enclosing_letrec_names` set so the symmetric
inner-captures-outer-name rejection fires there too — without it
a silent lift produced a runtime arity mismatch.
- examples/nested_let_rec.{ailx,ail.json}: outer counts down via
inner that captures the outer's threshold param.
- desugar.rs: clarified panic message for outer-name capture.
- lift.rs: enclosing_letrec_names tracking.
- e2e + desugar tests: 120 → 122 (+2).
End-of-16b series: feature-complete except for closure-of-self
in body and closure-with-polymorphism, both queued separately.

Iter 16b.6: LetRec inside polymorphic enclosing fn
Lifts the monomorphic-only restriction. Lifted top-level fn now
becomes Forall(α..., Fn(t..., T...) -> tr) when the enclosing fn
is polymorphic; capture types may mention outer type vars and
the existing mono pipeline (Iter 12b/14a) specializes them
correctly at call sites.
- desugar.rs / lift.rs: scope-building unified — Forall fn-params
are now KnownType, not LetBound. Lift wraps augmented_ty in
Forall mirroring the enclosing fn.
- Name-as-value-in-in-term in a polymorphic enclosing fn is
rejected (eta-Lam wrap from 16b.5 has no Forall). Queued
separately as closure-conversion-with-polymorphism.
- examples/poly_rec_capture.{ailx,ail.json}: apply_n_times :
Forall(a). drives at Int and Bool to exercise two mono
instantiations.
- e2e + check + desugar tests: 116 → 120 (+4).
Codegen pipeline untouched — apply_subst_to_type substitutes
through Fn.params uniformly (original params + appended captures).

Iter 16b.5: LetRec name as value (in_term only) via eta-Lam wrapper
Drops the direct-call-only restriction on the LetRec name when it
appears in `in_term`. No new ABI: the lift wraps the in-term in
`(let f (lam P (app f$lr_N P CAPTURES)) in_term')` so codegen's
existing Iter-8b closure-pair machinery handles it. Body-position
name-as-value still rejected (deferred — eta-of-self is harder).
- desugar.rs / lift.rs: split find_non_callee_use into body
(panic) and in_term (wrap).
- examples/local_rec_as_value.{ailx,ail.json}: no-capture path
(factorial passed to apply5 → 120).
- examples/local_rec_as_value_capture.{ailx,ail.json}: capture
path; lifted fn has captures, eta-Lam picks them up via 8b.
- e2e + desugar tests: 113 → 116 (+3).
Codegen Lam machinery handled the wrapped form on the first try.

Iter 16b.4: LetRec captures of match-arm pattern bindings
Flips the desugar's MatchArm-capture rejection from panic to defer.
The 16b.3 lift_letrecs pass already handled match-arm bindings via
type_check_pattern_for_lift (Pattern::Var, Pattern::Ctor with sub-
patterns, ctor-field substitution against scrutinee args), so this
iter is a single-line classification change in desugar plus the
fixture and tests that exercise it.
- desugar.rs: MatchArm classification now defers (same arm as
LetBound); EnclosingLetRec panic remains for 16b.7.
- examples/local_rec_match_capture.{ailx,ail.json}: enclosing fn
pattern-matches on Pair<Int,Int>, inner LetRec captures both
match-arm bindings simultaneously. Lifts to
loop$lr_0(i: Int, threshold: Int, n: Int) -> Int.
- e2e + check + desugar tests: 110 → 113 (+3).
First fixture lifting more than one capture; subst_call_with_extras
already handled it generically.

Iter 16b.3: post-typecheck lift for LetRec with Let-bound captures
Adds path-2 from the 16b.2 planning entry. Desugar now defers
LetRecs whose captures include Term::Let-bound names; a new
ailang-check::lift_letrecs pass runs after typecheck and uses the
elaborated env to resolve capture types. ailang-check learns a real
Term::LetRec typing rule in synth and verify_tail_positions.
- desugar: Term::LetRec arm gains a defer-arm; helpers promoted to
pub for reuse by the lift pass; find_non_callee_use moved before
classification.
- ailang-check::synth/verify_tail_positions: real LetRec rules
(effect-subset, locals install, recursive name in body+in_term).
- ailang-check::lift.rs (new, 720 LOC): post-typecheck lift with
post-order traversal, env-walk for capture-type resolution,
fast-path skip when no LetRec is present.
- ail::main.rs: build path now does load → check → desugar →
lift_letrecs → codegen.
- examples/local_rec_let_capture.{ailx,ail.json}: new fixture
capturing a let-bound `threshold` in a recursive helper.
- e2e + check unit tests: 106 → 110 (+4).

Iter 16b.2 — LetRec captures of fn-params (path-1 safe subset)
Lift 16b.1's no-capture restriction. The desugar pass's `scope` becomes a `BTreeMap<String, ScopeEntry>` carrying `KnownType` for fn/Lam-params, sentinels for Let-/Match-bindings. LetRec captures of `KnownType` names are lifted: the synthetic top-level fn's signature gets the capture types appended, and every call site of the LetRec name is rewritten via `subst_call_with_extras` to pass the captures positionally. Captures from let-bindings, match-arm patterns, polymorphic enclosing fns, and name-as-value uses are rejected at desugar with panics pointing at 16b.3-16b.7. Demo: `sum_below(n)` recurses via `(let-rec loop (params i) ... (body ... uses n ...) (in (app loop 1)))`. Lifts to `loop$lr_0(i: Int, n: Int) -> Int` with `(app loop X)` rewritten to `(app loop$lr_0 X n)`. Outputs 0, 10, 45. Tests: 103 -> 106 (+1 e2e local_rec_capture_demo, +2 desugar unit; the 16b.1 capture-panic test was repurposed into the positive fn-param-capture test).

Iter 16c — literal patterns via desugar
Desugar `Pattern::Lit` (top-level and nested in Ctor) to
`Term::If { cond = (== sv lit), then = body, else_ = fall_k }`.
After 16c, no Pattern::Lit survives the desugar pass; codegen
and typechecker never see one. `is_flat` reclassifies Lit as
non-flat to force the chain machinery; new `build_eq` helper
constructs the equality test per literal kind.
Tests: 99 → 103 (+1 e2e lit_pat_demo, +3 desugar unit). Demo
fixture exercises top-level lit arms (classify) and nested
lit-in-Ctor (categorize_first) with a local IntList; output
100/200/999/-1/0/7.
Known limitations documented in DESIGN.md and JOURNAL: (a)
chain machinery's Unit terminator means non-Wild-terminated
exhaustive matches with lit arms still need a trailing `_`
catch-all to type-check; (b) `==` is currently Int-only, so
Bool/Str/Unit lit patterns desugar correctly but error at
typecheck.

Add `(let-rec NAME (params ...) (type ...) (body ...) (in ...))` as a form-A surface and a `Term::LetRec` AST variant.

Iter 16a: nested constructor patterns via AST desugaring
Lifts the gate that rejected `(pat-ctor Cons a (pat-ctor Cons b _))`.
Approach: a pure AST → AST pass `ailang_core::desugar::desugar_module`
that flattens nested-Ctor sub-patterns into chains of single-level
matches with let-bound fresh vars and duplicate fall-through. Both
ailang-check and ailang-codegen call the pass at pipeline entry.
Hash-relevant canonical bytes are untouched: the pass runs after
load_module, in memory only. `check`'s returned CheckedModule.symbols
still carries hashes of the original defs so `ail diff` / `ail manifest`
see on-disk identities.
Lit sub-patterns inside a Ctor still rejected — that's the narrower
scope of `nested-ctor-pattern-not-allowed` post-16a; the variant doc
reflects the new meaning.
Fresh-name safety: `$` is a valid ident character in form (A), so
the Desugarer pre-walks every Term::Var / Pattern::Var name into a
BTreeSet and bumps its counter past any user-spelled `$mp_N`.
Already-flat matches go through `is_flat()` and emit identical AST
shapes; every existing fixture produces the same output as before.
New: examples/nested_pat.{ailx,ail.json} prints 30 from
first_two_sum on [10, 20, 30]. e2e test
`nested_ctor_pattern_first_two_sum` guards the path.
Tests: 92/92 (e2e 32→33, ailang-core unit 10→12).
