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.
`monomorphise_workspace` re-runs `synth` on every fn body to recover
residual class constraints; the env it uses is built by
`mono::build_workspace_env`, which delegates to `build_check_env` and
produces a workspace-flat `ctor_index` (every Def::Type ctor across
every module, keyed by bare ctor name → bare type name).
`check_in_workspace` (lib.rs:1247-1258) explicitly clears that flat
index after `build_check_env` and rebuilds it per-module so that
`Pattern::Ctor`'s local-first / imports-fallback resolution at
lib.rs:2486-2521 keeps the qualified-type-name comparison at
lib.rs:2526 intact: imports-fallback yields a qualified
`resolved_type_name` (`Mod.Type`), local-hit yields a bare one.
The mono pass never does the per-module overlay, so when a body in
module B pattern-matches a ctor `C` whose Def::Type lives in imported
module A, the workspace-flat index resolves `C` locally and yields the
bare type name. The scrutinee, however, was typed against the
qualified name, and the comparison fails with
`PatternTypeMismatch { ctor: "Cons", ty: "A.Type<...>" }`.
Surfaced by iter 23.2 Task 3, which adds `class Eq a` + Eq Int/Bool/Str
instances to the prelude. Pre-Task-3 the prelude is class-free, so
`workspace_has_typeclasses(ws) == false` and the mono pass early-outs
at `mono.rs:73`. Task 3 flips the gate; every workspace now traverses
bodies, which brings the latent bug to the surface for the
pre-existing `nested_ctor_pattern_first_two_sum` and
`std_either_list_demo` E2E tests.
Sibling regressions in the same family: `mono_xmod_qualified_ref.rs`
(env.imports not seeded), commit 13b36cc (env.globals not seeded for
self-recursive fns), commit 5c5180f (env.types / env.ctor_index not
seeded for user ADTs — the original "flat ctor_index" decision that
this bug now exposes as wrong-by-construction for cross-module ctor
pattern resolution).
The minimal fixture is two modules with five defs total:
test_mono_ctor_listmod (data List a = Nil | Cons a (List a)) and
test_mono_ctor_main (class Trivial a + instance Trivial Int + a fn
that pattern-matches Cons against the imported List<Int> + a main).
The test pins the inner cause: matches against the specific
`CheckError::PatternTypeMismatch` variant with the qualified
scrutinee type and bare ctor name, so it stays RED regardless of the
prelude's typeclass content.
