workflow: delete docs/journals/ and docs/journal-archive.md
Strict application of the "Future-Use, not Verlauf" criterion to the
two remaining journal artefacts:
- `docs/journals/` (110 files): the per-iter and audit journals from
2026-05-11 onward. Pure history; no live reader after the previous
sweep. Entire directory removed.
- `docs/journals/2026-05-19-design-decision-records.md`: the one file
that had live readers (`docs_honesty_pin.rs:108`, `parse.rs:80`,
`duplicate_ctor_pin.rs:8`, three roadmap.md mentions) and was framed
as a "relitigation guard". On re-examination its three asserted
pinned phrases ("Regions were considered and rejected", the
"demands annotations *because*" rationale, the prose-render
placeholder statement) are rationale-prose, not load-bearing
invariants — the test pinned itself, not a system property. Any
Decision that still holds lives in the code, `design/contracts/`,
or `design/models/`. Removed with the rest.
- `docs/journal-archive.md` (pre-2026-05-11 history): content-frozen
long-tail history with no live reader. Removed; if anyone ever
needs the pre-cutoff rationale they can `git log --before=2026-05-11
--grep=<keyword>`.
Live-file consequences:
- `docs_honesty_pin.rs` `design_md_present_tense_anchors_present`:
the three `records.*` assertions and the `read("docs/journals/…")`
are dropped; the contract/model anchor pins remain.
- `duplicate_ctor_pin.rs`: the "why-two-overlays rationale lives in
docs/journals/…" comment is replaced with the rationale inline.
- `parse.rs`: the "form-refinement rationale lives in docs/journals/…"
comment is dropped (the rule body already states the refinement).
- `roadmap.md`: the decision-records mention in the DESIGN.md →
design/ entry's body is dropped; the journal-archive.md `context:`
pointers across ~12 closed entries are either rephrased to point
at the relevant iter/audit (no path), or simplified to a one-line
comment when the iter name alone carries the story.
- `CLAUDE.md` Roles section: the `docs/journal-archive.md` slot is
removed; vocabulary note rephrased.
- `design/INDEX.md`: the Docs bullet drops `journal-archive.md`.
- `skills/README.md` bootstrap-rationale pointer rephrased.
`docs/specs/` and `docs/plans/` (per-milestone specs and per-iteration
plans) are unaffected — they remain the structured-design artefacts
they were before this sweep.
Workspace builds, full test suite green.

workflow: replace per-iter journal system with git log + BLOCKED.md
The per-iter journal under docs/journals/ duplicated the iter commit body's substance and accumulated as Verlauf-Doku with no Future-Use. Sweep across all live control documents: CLAUDE.md, the 7 SKILL.md files, the 11 agent files, design/INDEX.md and the contracts/models that referenced journals, docs/roadmap.md, and the handful of source comments + tests that pointed at journal files for rationale. Mechanism changes: - Standing-reading-lists in every agent now read `git log -N --format=full` for recent project state, never per-iter journal files. The architect reads `git log <prev-milestone-close>..HEAD --format=full` for audit scope. - implement-orchestrator no longer writes a journal file. DONE outcomes emit just code + stats; the end-report is the per-task summary the Boss uses to write the commit body. PARTIAL/BLOCKED outcomes emit BLOCKED.md at the repo root — uncommitted by convention, Boss removes on repair or discard. New iron-law line + four-rationalisation row + red-flag bullet codify it. - audit ratify mechanic: --update-baseline is now paired with an explicit ratify paragraph in the audit-close commit body, not a separate JOURNAL ratify entry. - design/contracts/honesty-rule.md: "history and rationale lives in docs/journals/" → "lives in git log (iter and audit commit bodies)". Pinned phrase preserved verbatim. - CLAUDE.md "Roles of …" section reframed: design/, git log, journal-archive.md (content-frozen), roadmap.md, specs/, plans/. No docs/journals/ slot anymore. - roadmap.md context-lines that pointed at per-iter journals are dropped where the spec/commit already carries the rationale, or rephrased to "shipped in the <iter> iter commit" / "docs/journal- archive.md (<date> entry)" for pre-2026-05-11 references. What stays (this commit): - docs/journals/ directory and contents are NOT touched. Removing the contents is a separate follow-up. - docs/journals/2026-05-19-design-decision-records.md still has live readers (docs_honesty_pin.rs Z 108 + parse.rs + duplicate_ctor_pin.rs + 3 roadmap mentions) — also follow-up. - docs/journal-archive.md still exists; its self-pointer header has been updated to drop the "see docs/journals/INDEX.md" mention. Workspace builds, full test suite green. |

design/ + source rustdoc: replace opaque shorthand with content phrases + links
Reader-facing prose and rustdoc carried opaque shorthand like
"Decision 10", "clause-5", "mq.1", "ct.1", "eob.1", "rpe.1",
"post-mq.3", and "Iter 22b.1:" with no in-repo definition the reader
could follow. This commit replaces every such occurrence in the
durable tier the reader is most likely to land on (design/ ledger +
source //! module headers + the central /// public-item rustdoc) with
an inline content phrase plus, where applicable, a Markdown link to
the file that defines the referenced concept.
design/ ledger — 16 files:
Definition-site headings demoted from "Decision N: <title>" to
"<title>": authoring-surface, tail-calls, memory-model section in
rc-uniqueness.md, dual-allocator section, typeclass design,
effects "pure core + algebraic effects".
Cross-reference sites: "Decision 1" -> canonical-schema principle
(data-model); "Decision 3/4" -> effects + scope-boundaries; "Decision
6" -> authoring-surface; "Decision 8" -> tail-calls; "Decision 9" ->
rc-uniqueness (dual-allocator); "Decision 10" -> memory-model;
"Decision 11" -> typeclasses (model). "clause-5" -> body-link
durability gate. "clause-3" (in language-constraints) ->
bug-class-reintroduction discriminator. "mq.1/2/3", "ct.1/4",
"eob.1", "rpe.1" -> the canonical-form rule / the type-driven
dispatch / the Str carve-out / etc. "post-mq.3" -> "type-driven".
design/contracts/feature-acceptance.md: file-local "clauses 1/2/3"
-> "criteria 1/2/3" (sprachliche Kohärenz mit der File-Überschrift
"Feature-acceptance criterion"); "the clause-3 mechanism" -> "the
bug-class-reintroduction discriminator".
Source //! module headers — 24 files:
Stripped "Iter X.Y:" prefixes and "(Decision N)" / "(mq.X)" tags
from spec_drift, uniqueness, reuse_shape, migrate_canonical_types,
typeclass_22b{2,3,c}, suppress_filter, lift, mono, linearity,
diagnostic, method_dispatch_pin, method_collision_pin,
no_per_type_print_ops, mq3_multi_class_e2e, print_mono_body_shape,
print_no_leak_pin, cli_diag_human_workspace_load_error,
ct1_check_cli, prose snapshot, unbound_in_instance_method_pin,
mono_xmod_ctor_pattern, desugar.
Central /// public-item rustdoc:
ast.rs (full sweep — every "Iter X" + "Decision N" prefix
reformulated; mode/Type::Fn rustdoc now points at memory-model.md;
Constraint / SuperclassRef / InstanceDef / ClassDef rustdoc points
at typeclasses contract).
diagnostic.rs (all "(Iter X)" / "(mq.X)" tags on diagnostic codes
removed).
lib.rs (FORM_A_SPEC rustdoc points at authoring-surface.md
instead of "Decision 6").
canonical.rs (type_hash + Float-literal rustdoc).
Still outstanding (for a follow-up commit): ~500 inline `//`
code-body comments with `Iter X.Y` markers across the workspace, and
a handful of `///` rustdoc items in hash_pin / workspace_pin / lift /
mono / suppress_filter test-pin and internal-function bodies. Code
identifiers (test filenames like `mq3_multi_class_e2e.rs`, function
names like `iter18e_drop_iterative_default_preserves_hashes`) stay
verbatim per the user's "code identifiers stay verbatim" rule.
Tests: design_index_pin 5/5 + docs_honesty_pin 5/5; workspace builds
clean; full `cargo test --workspace` previously green (every
`test result: ok` line, no FAILED line).

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

iter embedding-abi-m3.1 (PARTIAL 5/7 + Boss spec-defect repair): single-ctor scalar record crosses the C ABI, ownership follows declared mode
Tasks 1-5 GREEN. T1 baseline pins (re-point annotation + @ailang_rc_alloc heap-box byte-pin: size=8+n*8, tag@0, fields@8/16). T2 export gate widened (is_c_scalar -> two-level is_c_abi_type: single-ctor all-Int/Float record; multi-ctor/Str/List/nested still RED; gate suite 10/10; M1 adt-ret must-fail re-pointed to multi-ctor+Str Reading). T3 codegen forwarder widened (llvm_scalar record Type::Con -> ptr; M2 forwarder body byte-unchanged; 3/3 staticlib pins). T4/T5 E2E record round-trip own+borrow, global leak-freedom. Boss spec-consistency repair (M2.1-precedent class): orchestrator correctly BLOCKED Task 5 on a genuine spec defect -- the single-ctx-readback allocs==frees proof model is unsatisfiable for borrow (and only coincidentally passes for own) because M2's TLS-ctx is bound only during the synchronous forwarder call, so host-side decs land on g_rc_*, not ctx. Boss-verified globally leak-free + value-correct both modes. Spec + plan + harness amended to the stronger global model (sum all ailang_rc_stats: lines; the M2-TLS cross-attribution documented as correct behaviour). No fresh grounding-check (removes an over-strong measurement assumption). Tasks 6 (DESIGN.md frozen-layout SSOT + lockstep pointers + freeze wording + enforceability demo) and 7 (workspace-green gate) re-dispatched on the amended plan.

Tasks 4-7 on the Boss-Repaired plan, completing the M1 iteration: - Task 4: check-side export-signature gate — CheckError variants ExportNonScalarSignature / ExportHasEffects (codes export-non-scalar-signature / export-has-effects), code() arms, check_fn gate (params->ret->effects, first-violation-wins, unconditional on f.export.is_some()). The clause-3 discriminator in code: effectful/non-scalar exports fail to typecheck. 6/6. - Task 5: codegen Target::StaticLib — Target enum, threaded param, @main/MissingEntryMain gated behind Target::Executable, one external @<sym> forwarder per export to @ail_<module>_<fn> (fn_scalar_sig/llvm_scalar). In-source missing_entry_main_is_error byte-unchanged. Lowering pin 2/2. - Task 6: CLI ail build --emit=staticlib — clap field, Cmd::Build branch, build_staticlib (verbatim build_to prefix + has_export guard + two-archive clang -c/ar rcs tail) + run_cmd. CLI pin 2/2. - Task 7: C-host E2E coherent-stop proof (cc links libembed_backtest_step.a + libailang_rt.a, backtest_step(0,3)=9 / (9,4)=25, s==25, exit 0) + DESIGN.md §"Embedding ABI (M1)" (scalar C ABI, provisional until M3). E2E pin 1/1. Independent Boss verification: E2E 1/1, gate 6/6, full workspace 0 failures, roundtrip_cli + design_schema_drift + spec_drift green, Invariant 1 holds (no new dep in core/codegen/runtime). 3 behaviour- neutral plan pseudo-vs-reality concerns in the journal. Default-exe codegen/runtime path byte-unchanged (check.py firing = tracked-P2 known-noise, audit-adjudicated). INDEX line added. Completes the M1 iteration (impl).

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. 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 |

Iteration-discipline milestone, 2 of 3. Strictly additive (nothing tail-related removed; that is it.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.4-tidy + audit close — mut-local milestone closed
Tidy iter addressing the audit-mut-local drift. Plus paired baseline
update on bench/baseline_compile.json (audit-skill discipline).
Architect [high] items closed:
1. CheckError::MutVarCapturedByLambda rejects lambdas whose body
free vars include a mut-var of the enclosing mut_scope_stack.
Uses the existing ailang_core::desugar::free_vars_in_term walker
(which honours Term::Match pattern bindings). The scan runs only
when mut_scope_stack is non-empty.
2. crates/ailang-codegen/src/lambda.rs: the capture-not-in-locals
path that previously raised CodegenError::Internal blaming the
typechecker now uses unreachable!. The companion comment block
was rewritten to state the current reality.
Architect [medium] items closed (stale mut.1-stub history comments):
3. docs/DESIGN.md §'Term (expression)' mut/assign block: the
trailing paragraph describing the iter mut.1 stub state was
replaced with one describing the current mut.3-end-state. The
inline jsonc comment on {'t': 'assign'} was updated to drop the
'deferred to mut.2/mut.3' language.
4. crates/ailang-codegen/src/lib.rs: the stale comment block above
the real Term::Mut arm describing the mut.1 stub was removed
entirely.
Other:
- Short-circuit on empty mut_scope_stack in synth's Term::Var arm:
the iter mut.2 prepend now skips the iter-and-find walk when
the stack is empty, eliminating any per-Var-resolution overhead
for the common case (programs with no mut blocks). The
short-circuit did NOT close the check_ms regression — see ratify
below.
- Spec docs/specs/2026-05-15-mut-local.md §'Out of scope' amended
with the lambda-capture rejection bullet.
- Negative fixture examples/test_mut_var_captured_by_lambda.ail.json
+ driver test extension in crates/ailang-check/tests/
mut_typecheck_pin.rs (6th test) +
crates/ailang-core/tests/carve_out_inventory.rs EXPECTED bumped
12 → 13.
Bench-regression ratify:
bench/compile_check.py check_ms showed a uniform ~30-50% relative
shift across the entire 11-fixture suite (~0.5ms absolute on a
1.4-1.5ms baseline). The uniformity across fixtures of very
different Var counts argues for a fixed-cost-per-invocation tax,
not a Var-proportional hot path. The Term::Var short-circuit
falsified the hot-path hypothesis. The plausible remaining causes
(synth-parameter-passing through ~19 recursive sites, and binary-
size startup tax from mut-* adding ~1400 LOC to typecheck/codegen)
are both feature-cost, not pathological. Ratified by paired
journal entry; bench/baseline_compile.json updated to the post-
mut-local numbers via 'bench/compile_check.py --update-baseline'.
bench/check.py continues to show the established tail-latency-noise
envelope from audit-pd (2026-05-14) — no separate ratify needed.
bench/cross_lang.py clean.
Tests: 594 → 598 green (4 new lib.rs mod tests + 1 driver test +
1 fixture-corpus uptake).

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

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

iter form-a.1 (Tasks 1-5): additive phase + relocation
First half of the form-a-default-authoring milestone-close iter (Boss-decided strategy C, big-bang). All five tasks DONE; cargo test --workspace green at every per-task boundary. T1 — Add three new tests: - parse_is_deterministic_over_every_ail_fixture (round_trip.rs) - cli_parse_then_render_then_parse_is_idempotent (roundtrip_cli.rs) - carve_out_inventory.rs (new file; #[ignore]'d until T8 deletion) T2 — Bulk-render the 99 missing examples/<stem>.ail files via `ail render`. Corpus 58 .ail (pre-iter) -> 157 .ail. Eight .ail.json carve-outs (7 §C4(a) subject-matter + 1 §C4(b) prelude) preserved. One re-loop triggered: load_workspace prefers .ail siblings since ext-cli.1, so the newly-rendered imports broke seven Group-A entries whose JSON entry-paths now resolved imports to fresh .ail. Repair: pre-emptive forward-pull of five T3 migrations + 4 transient #[ignore]s on workspace.rs mod tests (cleanly relocated in T5). T3 — 14 Group-A test files migrated from ailang_core::load_workspace to ailang_surface::load_workspace + .ail paths. Carve-out lines preserved verbatim (7 sites in typeclass_22b2.rs / typeclass_22b3.rs). T4 — 12 Group-B test files: bulk regex flip on build_and_run / build_and_run_with_alloc / build_and_run_with_rc_stats call sites (~70 e2e.rs invocations + 11 subprocess sites). Four files mis-classified Group-A as Group-B in plan recon (mono_hash_stability, prelude_free_fns, print_mono_body_shape, show_mono_synthesis); two files mis-classified Group-B as Group-A (mono_recursive_fn, mono_xmod_qualified_ref). Migrated per actual shape, not plan label. T5 — Relocated #[cfg(test)] mod tests from production source to integration test crates with ailang-surface dev-dependency: - crates/ailang-core/tests/hash_pin.rs (10 tests from hash.rs) - crates/ailang-core/tests/workspace_pin.rs (10 non-carve-out tests from workspace.rs) - crates/ailang-codegen/tests/eq_primitives_pin.rs (3 tests from codegen/src/lib.rs:3717-3799) - ailang-prose/tests/snapshot.rs migrated (helper + 8 fixtures) to .ail + ailang_surface::load_module Carve-out tests in workspace.rs mod tests preserved in-place (3× 22b2 + 3× ct1 = 6 tests). Tempdir-based loader-mechanism tests (3 sites) also preserved — they don't consume examples/. Tests: 560 passed, 0 failed, 4 ignored (was 558 + 3 T1 new - 1 transit carve_out_inventory #[ignore] = 560 active). Tasks 6-12 (bench-driver suffix flips, e2e diff-test rewrite + 4 additional raw-JSON-inspect handlers, .ail.json deletion, retiring obsolete roundtrip tests + schema_coverage corpus flip, §C3 DESIGN.md restatement, §A4 doctrine edits, WhatsNew + roadmap strike) ship in the next dispatch on this iter ID. Known debt inherited to T6-12: 4 raw-JSON-inspect tests in e2e.rs (borrow_own_demo / reuse_as_demo / render_parse_round_trip_canonical / ail_run_accepts_ail_source_with_same_stdout_as_ail_json dual-form smoke) need rewrite or #[ignore] before T8 deletion; recorded in journal Concerns + Known debt sections. |

iter 24.2: class Show + 4 primitive instances + 22b TShow migration
Ships class Show a where show : (a borrow) -> Str in the prelude
plus primitive Show Int / Bool / Str / Float instances. Each
instance body is a single-application lambda invoking the
corresponding runtime primitive (int_to_str, bool_to_str,
str_clone, float_to_str) — first prelude instance bodies to call
runtime primitives directly. Float is included in Show (unlike
Eq/Ord) because textual representation is well-defined modulo the
NaN-spelling caveat at DESIGN.md §Float semantics.
The 22b typeclass test corpus is migrated preemptively: 21 fixture
files and 6 consumer files (typeclass_22b{2,3}.rs +
hash.rs ct4 pin + workspace.rs iter22b1 tests + the
instance_present.prose.txt snapshot) rename class Show / show
to class TShow / tshow, analogous to the existing TEq/TOrd
convention. Migration runs before the prelude additions so the
workspace stays green throughout.
Three new tests pin the post-mono shape: show_mono_synthesis.rs
(existence of show__Int/Bool/Str/Float as Def::Fn entries in the
prelude post-mono module), show_dispatch_pin.rs (bare show and
tshow both Step-2 singletons workspace-globally),
mono_hash_stability.rs::primitive_show_mono_symbol_hashes_stay_bit_identical
(body hashes pinned for the 4 new mono symbols).
DESIGN.md §Prelude (built-in) classes drops Show from the
deferred-features list and appends a milestone-24 paragraph
naming the class signature + the 4 instances + the body shape.
print rewire stays deferred to iter 24.3.
Tests: 552 passed (was 548 + 4 new). bench/compile_check +
bench/cross_lang exit 0. bench/check exits 1 on the recurring
noise envelope per the conservative-call lineage.

iter mq.3: retire MethodNameCollision + multi-class E2E + DESIGN.md sync
Closes the module-qualified-class-names milestone. Deletes the workspace-load workaround; the two-libraries case now resolves via type-driven dispatch at the call site with explicit qualifier as the LLM-author's disambiguation tool. Resolves both mq.2 known-debt items (active_declared_constraints plumbing, (class,method) re-key). New synth warnings channel emits class-method-shadowed-by-fn at all three fn-precedence branches per spec section Class-fn collisions. Three new E2E fixtures + integration tests cover the ambiguous, qualified, and class-fn-shadow trajectories. DESIGN.md class-names paragraph rewritten, new section Method dispatch added. Roadmap P2 marked done, milestone-24 unblocked for re-brainstorm. 9/9 tasks. 545 tests green. bench/compile_check.py + cross_lang.py exit 0; bench/check.py exit 1 (2 noise-class regressions, runtime uncoupled to typecheck iter). |

iter mq.2: type-driven dispatch mechanism installed (mechanism-before-exercise)
Installs the dispatch infrastructure for type-driven method resolution without retiring MethodNameCollision yet. The new multi-candidate path is exercised exclusively by 15 unit tests; real workspaces continue producing single-class residuals (candidates: None) and every pre-mq.2 fixture typechecks unchanged. Three new CheckError variants: - AmbiguousMethodResolution (multi-candidate after type-driven filter) - UnknownClass (explicit qualifier names a class not in registry) - NoInstance gains additive candidate_classes field (Vec<String>) Schema/Env additions: - Env.method_to_candidate_classes: BTreeMap<String, BTreeSet<String>> workspace-flat inverse of class_methods, built in build_check_env. - ResidualConstraint.candidates: Option<BTreeSet<String>> — None preserves pre-mq.2 single-class semantics; Some(set) carries the multi-candidate residual that discharge refines. - ResidualConstraint visibility bumped pub(crate) → pub for unit-test crate access. New helpers: - MethodDispatchOutcome enum + pure resolve_method_dispatch implementing the spec's 5-step rule (qualifier → singleton → type-driven filter → constraint-driven filter → Multi for discharge-time refinement). - parse_method_qualifier splits Term::Var.name into (method_name, optional_qualifier_prefix) at the last dot. - RefineOutcome enum + refine_multi_candidate_residual for discharge-time refinement. - resolve_residual_class_for_mono wires the refinement into mono's collect_residuals_ordered residual-to-target mapping. Synth Var-arm class-method branch rewritten via parse_method_qualifier with inner-dot gate (qualifier must be <module>.<Class>; single-dot names fall through to the existing qualified-fn path). Constraint-discharge in check_fn uses expanded (post-superclass- expansion) constraints for the rigid-var path — sounder than raw declared_constraints. Plan-invented format_type_for_display replaced with the existing ailang_core::pretty::type_to_string (one less duplicate). Synth-time declared_constraints: &[] is a deliberate gap documented as known debt — load-bearing only post-mq.3 for the rigid-var fallback (env-plumbing the active fn's constraints into the Var arm is a ~10-line edit slated for mq.3). 9/9 tasks, 539 tests green (was 520 pre-mq.2; +15 mq.2 unit tests + 4 pre-existing). bench/compile_check.py + cross_lang.py clean; bench/check.py 1 regression (latency noise — runtime cannot be touched by a typecheck-side iter). |

iter mq.1: class-ref canonical-form extension + workspace-internal class-name qualification
Three schema fields move bare → canonical (bare for same-module,
<module>.<Class> for cross-module): InstanceDef.class,
Constraint.class, SuperclassRef.class. Symmetric to ct.1's
Type::Con.name rule. ClassDef.name stays bare.
validate_canonical_type_names gains three field-walks via new
check_class_ref helper + two sibling diagnostics
BareCrossModuleClassRef / BadCrossModuleClassRef.
check_class_name_fields narrowed to ClassDef.name-only.
Workspace-internal class-name keys all qualified:
class_def_module, class_by_name, registry entries.0,
ClassMethodEntry.class_name, class_superclasses, mono's
class_index, Origin::Class.class_name. New qualify_class_ref
helper at workspace.rs scope plus sibling
qualify_class_ref_in_check in ailang-check.
Two new positive on-disk fixtures (mq1_xmod_constraint_class{,_dep})
exercise the qualified Constraint.class shape.
Recon claim that all existing fixtures' class-refs are intra-module
was empirically wrong — 10 fixtures required minimal canonical-form
migration. Duplicate-instance test architecturally restructured:
post-mq.1 orphan-freedom makes two-modules-on-same-(class,type)
structurally impossible; new test_22b1_dup_same_module fixture
lands both instances in the class's module.
Plan defects fixed inline: Origin::Class.class_name single
construction site (plan recon off-by-one); build_class_index in
mono.rs needed qualifying; build_module_globals needed Def::Instance
carve-out; check_fn declared-constraint matching needed inline
canonical-form lifting; NoInstance Float-aware message arm needed
prelude.Eq/prelude.Ord match; coherence type-leg needed qualified-
head split-and-lookup. Tasks 3-6 ran as one coherent fix.
7/7 tasks, 520 tests green. bench/compile_check.py + cross_lang.py
exit 0; bench/check.py exit 1 (4 improvements-beyond-tolerance,
audit-ratifiable, not a regression).
MethodNameCollision + dispatch path unchanged; iters mq.2 + mq.3
land them.

iter 22b.1.2: workspace registry skeleton + coherence checks
Adds the workspace-global typeclass instance registry per Decision 11
"Resolution and monomorphisation". Built at the end of load_workspace
after the DFS over imports completes; keyed by (class-name, type-hash)
where type-hash uses the new canonical::type_hash (16-hex prefix,
parallel to def_hash and module_hash).
Three coherence checks fire from build_registry, each surfacing as a
distinct WorkspaceLoadError variant:
- OrphanInstance: `instance C T` not in C's or T's defining module.
- DuplicateInstance: two entries share the same (class, type-hash) key.
- MissingMethod: instance omits a required (non-default) method.
The CLI's workspace_error_to_diagnostic is extended with the three new
codes (orphan-instance / duplicate-instance / missing-method).
All existing Workspace { ... } construction sites get the new
`registry` field, defaulting to Registry::default() at synthetic /
test-only paths and threading through ws.registry.clone() at codepath
sites that already hold a real workspace.
Includes hash-stability regression tests (iter22b1_schema_extension_*
and iter22b1_classdef_empty_optionals_hash_stable) and the empty-
registry positive test against examples/sum.ail.json. Test count:
288 → 291 (3 new tests, all pass).

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.2: codegen reuse-as in-place rewrite under --alloc=rc
Lowers Term::ReuseAs { source, body=Term::Ctor } under
--alloc=rc to a runtime refcount-1 dispatch. At the reuse-as
site:
%hdr_ptr = getelementptr i8, ptr %src, i64 -8
%refcnt = load i64, ptr %hdr_ptr
%is_one = icmp eq i64 %refcnt, 1
br i1 %is_one, label %reuse, label %fresh
The reuse arm overwrites the source's box in place: stores the
new tag at offset 0 and the new field values at offsets 8, 16,
... — no malloc, no outer drop. The fresh arm allocates a brand-
new box via ailang_rc_alloc, stores tag and fields, then shallow-
dec's the source. Both arms phi-join to the same `ptr` result.
Other allocators (gc, bump) keep 18d.1's identity behaviour
unchanged.
Static shape compatibility is enforced by a new pre-codegen
pass crates/ailang-check/src/reuse_shape.rs. It tracks the
path-resolved ctor of every let-bound and pattern-matched
binder, then checks each Term::ReuseAs site against the body's
ctor. Mismatches emit reuse-as-shape-mismatch with stable
ctx.reason sub-codes (field-count-mismatch, field-type-mismatch,
indeterminate-source-ctor, cross-module-body-ctor, ctor-not-in-
module) and a drop-the-wrapper SuggestedRewrite. Build fails on
mismatch — the structured diagnostic tells the author whether
to fix the shapes or remove the hint.
Field-cleanup design — deliberate scope cut:
The reuse arm does NOT dec the old pointer-typed field values
before overwriting them. Doing so on the canonical fixture
`(reuse-as xs (Cons (+h 1) (map_inc t)))` causes use-after-free:
the recursive map_inc(t) returns t's in-place-rewritten box, so
the "new tail" being stored is the same pointer as the "old
tail". A dec-old-then-store-new schedule would dec the box (to
zero, free), then store the freed pointer.
The root cause is upstream: 18c.4 doesn't yet null-out pattern-
moved field slots, so codegen can't statically distinguish
"old field still owned" from "already moved out". The chosen
trade-off: skip the field dec entirely; pattern-wildcarded
fields (rare in shipping fixtures) leak; pattern-moved fields
are the body's responsibility (consistent with the 18c.4 leak
baseline — Own params still leak today). 18d.2 ships zero
regression vs 18c.4, plus the perf win on the alloc + outer
cascade. Closing the leak is the move-aware-pattern story
queued for 18d.3 / 18e.
Tests:
- e2e reuse_as_demo_under_rc_uses_inplace_rewrite — runs
examples/reuse_as_demo.ail.json under --alloc=rc, asserts
stdout 9 and locks in the IR shape (icmp eq i64 ..., 1; the
reuse arm has no @ailang_rc_alloc call).
- workspace reuse_as_shape_mismatch_is_reported_on_cons_to_nil
— happy negative for the new diagnostic.
- 3 unit tests in reuse_shape::tests covering same-ctor-clean,
cons-to-nil-reject, and indeterminate-source-ctor-reject.
Test deltas: e2e 56, ailang-check unit 46 -> 49 (+3), workspace
9 -> 10 (+1). cargo test --workspace green. Hand-verified
--alloc=rc binary on reuse_as_demo: stdout 9, exit 0.

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.2: linearity check + suggested_rewrites
Adds a per-fn linearity check that runs on every fn whose param_modes are all explicit (Borrow or Own, no Implicit), tracks each binder's consume/borrow state through the AST, and emits two diagnostics with form-A `suggested_rewrites`: - `use-after-consume` — a binder is referenced after it has already been consumed. - `consume-while-borrowed` — a binder is consumed while a borrow of it is still live (sibling arg slot, or an enclosing-fn Borrow param). Fns with any Implicit param skip the check entirely; that's the back-compat lane that keeps every existing fixture green. Pure diagnostic addition: no IR change, no codegen change, no runtime change. Each diagnostic carries a non-empty `suggested_rewrites` whose `replacement` is form-A AILang text (typically `(clone <name>)`). Adds two new public entrypoints to ailang-surface — `parse_term` and `term_to_form_a` — so the round-trip `parse_term(term_to_form_a(t)) ≡ t` is the contract every emitted replacement must satisfy. Tests assert the contract. Linearity pass runs only on modules that typechecked clean (any upstream typecheck error suppresses it for that module — running on partly-defined IR would produce noise). Tests: 3 unit tests in `linearity::tests`, 3 integration tests in `ailang-check/tests/workspace.rs`, 1 serialisation test in `diagnostic.rs`. `cargo test --workspace` green. |

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 14e: explicit, verified tail calls
Decision 8 ships. Term::App and Term::Do gain tail: bool with serde-default false and skip-when-false serialisation. New typecheck pass verify_tail_positions enforces tail-position rules (Scheme-style propagation through match arms, seq.rhs, let body, lam body). Codegen emits musttail call for marked App calls. Hash invariance verified: only the two migrated print_list defs (list_map_poly.print_list, sort.print_list) changed hashes; all other defs across all 18 fixtures kept bit-identical hashes — confirms the skip-when-false serialisation rule works. Tests 76 -> 79: tail_call_in_non_tail_position_is_rejected, tail_call_in_tail_position_is_accepted, plus an IR-grep e2e test asserting that print_list's recursive call site emits musttail in the lowered IR. Existing 25 e2e tests unchanged in behaviour (map -> [2,3,4], sort -> sorted list). IR evidence at the recursive site: %v7 = musttail call i8 @ail_list_map_poly_print_list(ptr %v6) ret i8 %v7 Two deviations called out in the implementer report and JOURNAL: 1. tail-do uses tail call, not musttail. Cross-type return (runtime helpers return i32, AILang Unit is i8) would have LLVM reject musttail. Path is implemented but not exercised by any current fixture; proper fix is runtime-helper signature change, punted. 2. block_terminated flag in codegen so tail-call emit (musttail call + ret) doesn't get a duplicate trailing ret from surrounding code (match-arm phi, fn-body, lambda thunk). Internal plumbing; required for IR well-formedness. Form (A) productions now at ~30, exactly the constraint-1 budget. Future surface additions need to retire something or explicit-budget-rebalance in DESIGN.md. GC notes from implementer survey land in JOURNAL: - Allocations cluster in lower_ctor; every term-ctor does malloc(8+8n). - Tail recursion does not reduce alloc pressure, only stack. For map-style ctor-blocked recursions, allocation IS the bottleneck. - Per-fn arena is sound only when fn return type contains no boxed ADT. Most current fixtures violate this. Plan 14f: Boehm conservative GC (GC_malloc, -lgc) as a first cut. Single-iter integration, no AST/schema change. Stress test: build a 100k Cons list, observe RSS doesn't blow up. After 14f the language is feature-complete enough for stdlib work (15a). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Iter 6: deps hardening, multi-diagnose, DESIGN audit
- 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. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Translate project content to English
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).

Iter 5b: Cross-Module-Typcheck mit qualifizierten Verweisen
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. |
