Milestone-close audit found three drift items (architect) plus
two carry-on items; bench all-green.
Fixes (rt.tidy, boss-direct):
- 5th test parse_then_print_then_parse_is_idempotent_on_every_ailx_fixture
enforces Direction 2 of the Roundtrip Invariant directly. The
DESIGN.md enforcement list grows from four to five tests.
- docs/roadmap.md P1 'Round-trip completeness invariant' entry
retired with one-line journal mirror per roadmap convention.
- DESIGN.md wording sync: <16-hex> → <16-lowercase-hex> for the
Float-bits-hex spelling in the new section (matches §Data model).
Milestone closed clean; five workspace-wide tests anchor the
.ail.json ↔ .ailx bijection plus AST-variant coverage.
Three new reader-only tests pin the .ail.json / .ailx bijection
plus AST-variant coverage. All three passed first observation
across the current corpus — no roundtrip, schema-coverage, or
CLI-drift gaps surfaced.
- every_ailx_fixture_matches_its_json_counterpart (replaces the
3-pair handwritten exhibits): 57 paired .ailx fixtures pass.
- every_ast_variant_is_observed_in_the_fixture_corpus (new): 34/34
AST variants exercised across 136 fixtures; exhaustive matches
without _ wildcard so AST drift fails the build.
- cli_render_then_parse_preserves_canonical_bytes_on_every_fixture
(new): 136 fixtures round-trip through ail render → tempfile →
ail parse with BLAKE3 identity on canonical bytes.
No production code, no DESIGN.md changes (those follow in later
iterations). Tests are pure readers of the repo per spec
acceptance #7 — tempfile crate added as workspace dep for the CLI
roundtrip's intermediate file outside the repo.
Adds seven fixtures under examples/test_22b1_* exercising the
workspace-load coherence checks plus four positive/negative tests in
ailang-core/src/workspace.rs:
- iter22b1_instance_in_class_module_loads_clean: positive case;
test_22b1_orphan_class.ail.json declares Show + instance Show Int
in the same module (the class's). Registry has one entry.
- iter22b1_orphan_instance_fires_diagnostic: declares Show in
test_22b1_orphan_third_classmod, declares instance Show Int in
test_22b1_orphan_third (a third module). Fires OrphanInstance.
- iter22b1_duplicate_instance_fires_diagnostic: per the JOURNAL hint,
module A defines class Show + instance Show MyInt (legal, A is
class's module), module B defines type MyInt + instance Show MyInt
(legal, B is type's module). Entry imports both. Fires
DuplicateInstance with first/second_module distinct.
- iter22b1_missing_method_fires_diagnostic: class Eq with two
non-default methods (eq, ne), instance Eq Int specifies only ne.
Fires MissingMethod { method: "eq" }.
The surface round-trip gate (ailang-surface/tests/round_trip.rs)
filters out test_22b1_* fixtures because the Form-B parser arms for
ClassDef/InstanceDef are deferred to 22b.4. Without the filter, every
fixture's printed text would re-parse-fail on the unknown `class` /
`instance` head.
Test count: 291 → 295 (4 new workspace tests, all green).
Strictly additive new crate per Decision 6 architectural pin.
JSON-AST stays the source of truth; ailang-surface is one
producer/consumer of ailang_core::ast::Module values. ailang-check
and ailang-codegen unchanged.
Crate contents:
- src/lex.rs (~264 LOC): 3-rule lexical core. Whitespace and parens
delimit tokens; semicolon to EOL is comment; first-character
classifier (digit -> int, " -> string, else -> ident).
- src/parse.rs (~1041 LOC): hand-written recursive descent. One Rust
fn per EBNF production. No parser-combinator dep.
- src/print.rs (~371 LOC): deterministic pretty-printer. Round-trip
contract with parse() is the surface's correctness gate.
- tests/round_trip.rs (~128 LOC): integration test runs every
examples/*.ail.json fixture through print -> parse -> canonical
JSON, asserts canonical-byte equality with the original.
Two AST-driven form widenings beyond the 14b sketch (both folded
into DESIGN.md Decision 6):
- lam-term carries (typed name type) params, ret type, and
optional effects (Term::Lam has parallel param_tys/ret_ty/
effects fields).
- import-clause admits (import name (as alias)?) (Import.alias
is Option<String>).
Production count ~28, under 30-rule budget. Constraint 1
(formalisable for foreign LLM) intact.
Verification:
- cargo build --workspace green.
- cargo test --workspace: 76 tests green (was 64; +9 surface unit,
+2 round-trip integration). All 17 fixtures round-trip
byte-identical at canonical level. 3 hand-written .ailx
exhibits parse to canonical JSON identical to their .ail.json
siblings.
- cargo doc --no-deps zero warnings (DESIGN.md item 6 invariant).
Manual smoke test (ail parse → ail run): hello, box,
list_map_poly all produce expected output through the form-(A)
authoring lane end-to-end.
CLI: ail parse <file.ailx> [-o <file.ail.json>]. .ail.json
remains a first-class input to every existing subcommand.
Plan 14d: stdlib (std_list.ailx with length/filter/fold/concat/
reverse/head/tail), authored in form (A) from day one.
