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.

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.

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

iter form-a.0: prelude pilot — examples/prelude.ail rendered
First iteration of the form-a-default-authoring milestone. Mechanical: one `ail render examples/prelude.ail.json > examples/prelude.ail` captures the canonical Form-A projection (116 lines / 6386 bytes). No source-code edits, no test edits. The two auto-discovering roundtrip tests in crates/ailang-surface/tests/round_trip.rs pick up the new fixture via read_dir without test changes and both pass: - every_ail_fixture_matches_its_json_counterpart — the .ail parses to canonical bytes byte-equal to prelude.ail.json (gate test). - parse_then_print_then_parse_is_idempotent_on_every_ail_fixture — the Form-A printer is idempotent over prelude. cargo test --workspace green at 558 tests (identical to pre-iter baseline; audit-24 / iter-24.tidy lineage). prelude.ail.json retained per spec §A2 — this is the singular dual-form iter; iter 1 deletes it alongside the bulk test-infra refactor. Zero re-loops, zero review-phase repairs. Recon predictions matched reality exactly (116 lines, 6386 bytes, `(module prelude` header, 558-test baseline). Strong signal that the iter-1+ bulk migration mechanism is sound. |
