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 (

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. Stats file: `bench/orchestrator-stats/2026-05-21-iter-operator-routing-eq-ord.1.json`. closes #1 |

fix(runtime): mirror surface .0-fallback in ailang_float_to_str
`runtime/str.c::ailang_float_to_str` now applies the `.0`-fallback
already enforced by the surface printer's `write_float_lit`
(crates/ailang-surface/src/print.rs lines 624-637): after the
existing `%g` snprintf, if `x` is finite and the rendered buffer
contains neither `.` nor `e`/`E`, append `.0` so a whole-valued
Float renders with Float-shaped text. The `isfinite(x)` fence
keeps `nan`/`inf`/`-inf` from matching the predicate and turning
into `nan.0`/`inf.0`. The 64-byte stack buffer's truncation guard
is extended by 2 bytes for the fallback path so the defensive
`abort()` discipline holds.
The alternative (document `%g`-without-fallback in the design/
ledger as a deliberate human-friendly contract) was rejected: the
language's stated ethos is machine-readability and round-trip
identity; the surface printer is the reference, runtime drift
from it is a defect not a feature.
Golden updates flow from the contract change. Three fixtures
encoded the old Int-shaped output for Float values:
- `crates/ail/tests/floats_e2e.rs`: `"4\n42\n-1.5\n"` →
`"4.0\n42.0\n-1.5\n"` (1.5+2.5=4.0, int_to_float(42)=42.0).
- `crates/ail/tests/e2e.rs::mut_sum_floats_prints_55`: `"55"` →
`"55.0"`. The accompanying doc comment used to canonicalise the
bug ("`%g` strips the trailing `.0` — so the canonical stdout
for Float 55.0 is `55`"); rewritten to reflect the new contract.
- `examples/mut_sum_floats.ail` docstring: same correction.
Two doc comments are updated where the post-fix contract differs
from the old text but the fixture golden does not change:
- `examples/float_to_str_smoke.ail` docstring (3.5 still renders
as `3.5` because `.` is already present — the fallback does not
fire).
- `crates/ail/tests/e2e.rs::float_to_str_smoke` doc comment (same
observation, made explicit so the trip-wire's intent is clear).
Verified: `cargo test -p ail --test print_float_whole_e2e` green

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. Milestone-close audit then fieldtest remain. spec docs/specs/2026-05-18-remove-mut-var-assign.md (grounding PASS) plan docs/plans/remove-mut-var-assign.1.md |

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).
mut-local milestone end-to-end status:
- mut.1 (
