DESIGN.md:
- CLI block: add `ail run`.
- Smoke-test list: add list_map.ail.json (the dogfood example).
JOURNAL: append Iter 9 entry covering the dogfood result, two
friction points surfaced (single-arg fn-type pretty-print parens;
absence of a sequencing operator), the `ail run` CLI helper, and a
ranked Iter 10 plan with three candidates (polymorphism, `;`, GC).
Tentative pick is (2) `;` next, (1) polymorphism for Iter 11.

DESIGN.md:
- Term schema: add `ctor`, `match`, `lam` rows. The schema fragment is
now exhaustive for the supported language; prior versions silently
dropped Iter 3/Iter 8 additions.
- "What is not (yet) supported": closures-with-capture moves out of
pending. New positive bullet for anonymous lambdas. Polymorphism
added as an explicit pending bullet (Forall is parseable but not
inferred). Smoke-test list extended with closure.ail.json.
JOURNAL: append Iter 8 entry covering both 8a (closure-pair ABI) and
8b (Term::Lam + capture). Includes the rationale for skipping TIR
(KISS won — `synth` already provides enough type info), the closure-
conversion sketch, hash stability check (existing examples produce
the same fn hashes pre vs post Iter 8), and the Iter 9 plan with
two candidates ranked.

Top-level fn names are now usable as values, fn-typed parameters can
be called as `f(args)`. KISS slice of "closures + HOFs + TIR": no
TIR, no heap, no ABI shift — that bundle stays in Iter 8 where
closure-with-capture and lambdas land together.
Codegen:
- Type::Fn lowers to LLVM `ptr`; sig travels via a per-fn-body
`ssa_fn_sigs` sidetable on `Emitter`.
- Term::Var falls through to `resolve_top_level_fn` when the name is
not a local; emits `@ail_<m>_<def>` and registers the sig.
- Term::App splits: static callee (builtin / current-module / qualified)
keeps the existing direct path; otherwise lower the callee, look up
the sig, emit indirect `call <ret> (<param-tys>) %fn(args...)`.
- emit_fn registers fn-typed params in the sidetable on entry.
- If branches propagate a fn-pointer sig to their phi when both arms
match.
Typechecker: unchanged. It already accepted `synth(callee)` against
Type::Fn; the only blocker was codegen rejecting non-Var callees.
Tests: 48 green (was 47). New `examples/hof.ail.json` and e2e
`higher_order_apply_inc` exercise `apply(inc, 41) == 42` end-to-end.
DESIGN.md: "What is not (yet) supported" rewritten — closures-with-
capture and lambdas remain pending, first-class fn-refs added as
positive bullet. Smoke-test list extended with `hof.ail.json`.
JOURNAL.md: Iter 7 entry with rationale, scope choice, architecture
self-check, Iter 8 plan.

- ail deps now filters builtins, fn params, and let/match-pattern
bindings. New value_names() in ailang-check::builtins is the single
source of truth shared with the typechecker install path. walk_term
threads a scope set; qualified `prefix.def` refs pass through.
- check_in_workspace returns Vec<CheckError>; check_workspace
accumulates body diagnostics across defs and modules. Pass-1
(top-level symbol table) and per-module type-def setup stay
fail-fast — corrupt env would taint later diagnostics.
- DESIGN.md "What the MVP is NOT" was lying (ADTs, strings landed
in Iter 2/3). Renamed to "What is not (yet) supported" and split
into "not yet" + supported/smoke-tested. JOURNAL Iter 6 entry
records the architecture self-check.
Tests: 47 green (was 44). +2 deps filter tests in e2e,
+1 multi-diagnose test in ailang-check workspace integration.

Finishes the project-wide English convention:
- CLAUDE.md (the user opted in to translate it too).
- examples/hello.ail.json: "Hallo, AILang." -> "Hello, AILang.".
- E2E test assertion and IR snapshot for hello regenerated to match.
- DESIGN.md "Project language: English" section: the previous
CLAUDE.md exception is dropped.
After this commit, no German remains in any committed file
(grep -P '[äöüÄÖÜß]' is empty across .rs / .md / .json / .ll).
Verified: cargo test --workspace passes (44/44).

Make English the project-wide language: all comments, string literals,
CLI help text, design docs, journal, agent prompts, and README. Only
CLAUDE.md (the user's own instruction file) stays German, and the live
conversation between user and Claude continues in German.
Adds a new "Project language: English" section to docs/DESIGN.md as
the durable convention. No logic changes — translation only. Four
internal error strings in the typechecker were retranslated; no
test asserts on their wording.
Verified: cargo test --workspace passes (44/44).

JOURNAL bekommt fehlenden Iter-5d-Eintrag und Iter-5-Architektur-
Review-Notiz mit Iter-6-Plan (Aufräumarbeiten). DESIGN.md korrigiert
zwei Drifts vom Architekt-Befund: @main ist i32 (C-/LLVM-ABI), nicht
i64; String-Globals tragen Hint @.str_<modul>_<hint>_<idx>.
Symbol-Mangling-Schema einheitlich auf @ail_<modul>_<def> umgestellt
(auch für Single-Modul-Programme), String-Globals als
@.str_<modul>_<idx>. main bleibt LLVM-/C-ABI-Eintrittspunkt und ist
ein Trampoline auf @ail_<entry>_main. lower_workspace emittiert eine
einzige .ll für den ganzen Workspace, alphabetisch nach Modulname,
Cross-Module-Calls über Import-Map aufgelöst. ail build / ail emit-ir
laufen jetzt durch den Workspace-Pfad. IR-Snapshots regeneriert,
neuer ws_main-Snapshot. E2E-Test workspace_build_runs_imported_fn
prüft, dass das Binary die importierte Funktion korrekt aufruft.
Schuld #19 (source_filename) durch einheitliches <entry>.ail-Schema
geschlossen.
Neue API check_workspace(&Workspace) -> Vec<Diagnostic>; check_module
hebt das Modul intern in einen Trivial-Workspace. Term::Var mit genau
einem Punkt im Namen ist ein qualifizierter Verweis <prefix>.<def>,
aufgelöst über Import-Map (alias-oder-modulname → echter Modulname).
Drei neue Diagnostic-Codes: unknown-module, unknown-import,
invalid-def-name. ail check lädt jetzt immer via load_workspace;
Loader-Fehler werden im JSON-Modus zu strukturierten Diagnostics
(module-not-found, module-cycle, …). DESIGN.md und JOURNAL.md
dokumentieren die Konvention. Hash-Stabilität: alle ir_snapshot_*-
Tests bitidentisch grün, kein neuer AST-Knoten.
Vier spezialisierte Agent-Definitionen (implementer, architect, tester,
debugger) im sichtbaren agents/-Verzeichnis. DESIGN.md erweitert um den
Abschnitt "Projekt-Ökosystem" — AILang ist Sprache + CLI + Examples +
Agents + Doku + Tests gleichermaßen. JOURNAL hält den Workflow-Wechsel
auf Orchestrator-Modus fest und ordnet Iteration 4 neu.
Erste lauffähige Iteration. examples/sum.ail.json wird zu nativem Binary
kompiliert und druckt 55 (Summe 1..10) als End-to-End-Test.
Architektur:
- ailang-core: hashbares JSON-AST + canonical-form + pretty-printer
- ailang-check: monomorpher HM-Subset + Effekt-Set-Tracking
- ailang-codegen: LLVM-IR-Text-Emitter (kein libllvm-link)
- ail: CLI mit check/manifest/render/describe/emit-ir/build/builtins
Designentscheidungen sind in docs/DESIGN.md dokumentiert; der Verlauf
in docs/JOURNAL.md.
