Language rule: Term::Do.args[*] are walked in Position::Borrow by
the uniqueness + linearity passes, symmetric to Term::Ctor.args[*]
being walked in Position::Consume. The kind itself carries the
ownership default — no per-op field on EffectOpSig. Three
analyser sites flip in lockstep: uniqueness.rs:289, linearity.rs:506,
and the shared doc-comment at linearity.rs:42.
Heap-Str-specific consequences (closing hs.4's leak):
- int_to_str / float_to_str ret_mode: Implicit → Own at four lockstep
sites (builtins.rs:200,210 + synth.rs:172,179). The codegen
trackability gate (drop.rs:464-475, iter 18g.2) now fires on these
callees, so the let-binder receives a scope-close drop.
- drop_symbol_for_binder's App arm gets a Type::Con{name:"Str"} →
"ailang_rc_dec" carve-out, symmetric to field_drop_call's existing
Str arm. Without it, the new Own-trackable App binder would emit
drop_<m>_Str (undefined).
Tests: the two pre-existing RED tests at e2e.rs (commit 592d87b)
flip to GREEN unchanged with predicted numbers (allocs=1,frees=1,
live=0 and allocs=2,frees=2,live=0). Two new positive tests pin
the rule's coverage: primitive-Int arg through io/print_int produces
zero RC traffic; heap-Str through 2× io/print_str in sequence
typechecks (no use-after-consume) and balances allocs=1,frees=1,
live=0.
DESIGN.md §Decision 10 gets the arg-position-policy table for both
AST node kinds (Ctor=Consume, Do=Borrow) plus a linking paragraph
explaining how Do=Borrow cooperates with ret_mode==Own.
heap-str-abi milestone closes here: WhatsNew entry shipped (Strings
produced at runtime now release cleanly), roadmap P1 entry checked
off, Post-22-Prelude depends-on line removed.
Workspace cargo test + cross_lang.py + compile_check.py all green.
check.py noisy latency cluster + bench_list_sum.bump_s ±12% — same
precedent as the previous two audits, not coupled to this milestone.
Claude Code categorically forbids subagents from spawning other
subagents (code.claude.com/docs/en/sub-agents and the Agent SDK
subagents page). The `or.1` architecture (and `pr.1` that ran on
top of it) presumed a named-exception for `ailang-implement-
orchestrator` to dispatch implementer / spec-reviewer / quality-
reviewer / tester per task. That exception never existed at the
platform level; the `Agent` tool was silently dropped from the
orchestrator-agent's tool set at dispatch time.
Architecture revised, doc-only:
- Per-task phases (implementer → spec-compliance check → quality
check) now run as sequential role-switches in the orchestrator-
agent's own context, not as nested subagents.
- The four role-files (implementer / spec-reviewer / quality-
reviewer / tester) become phase reference files the
orchestrator-agent consults at role-switch boundaries.
- Boss-context offload preserved; fresh-per-phase context given
up (the property that drove or.1's nested-dispatch design is
not buildable in Claude Code).
Files touched:
- skills/implement/agents/ailang-implement-orchestrator.md
(frontmatter, Iron Law, Phase 2/3 rewrite, rationalisations,
red flags)
- skills/implement/SKILL.md (frontmatter, Iron Law, sub-status
vocabulary note, cross-references)
- skills/README.md (Conventions: no more named exception; agent
roster: role-files recast as phase references)
- docs/journals/INDEX.md (or.2 entry appended)
- docs/journals/2026-05-11-iter-or.2.md (new — full rationale)
- docs/roadmap.md (P1 tool-wiring item removed; resolved as
categorically-not-fixable)
- docs/WhatsNew.md (user-facing correction entry appended)
No code changes; no bench impact; CLAUDE.md untouched (no stale
references to fix there).
Reversal of the language decision from 6d94fa5. Texts that get
committed to the repo permanently should follow the same English-
only rule as everything else; the Notify push stays 1:1 with the
WhatsNew entry, so both are English now.
The "only file intentionally not in English" carve-out in CLAUDE.md
is removed.
Done-state notifications now produce two synchronised outputs sharing
one text: an entry appended to docs/WhatsNew.md and the same string
sent via notify.sh. The text is written in German for the user-as-
reader who did not watch the session — no technical internals, no
iteration codes, lead with the change-in-the-project.
WhatsNew.md is the only file in the repo intentionally not in English;
the exception is documented in CLAUDE.md (Roles of docs/...) so a
future reader does not "correct" it back. Bounce-back notifications
stay Notify-only.
