Brummel 832375f2ac convention: counter-prefix file naming across docs/specs/, docs/plans/, design/contracts/, design/models/
All 176 files in the four accumulating directories now use a
zero-padded 4-digit counter prefix that reflects creation order
(`NNNN-slug.md`). The counter is assigned per directory in strict
git-log creation order; ties broken alphabetically by original name.
The old `YYYY-MM-DD-` prefix on docs/specs/ and docs/plans/ files is
dropped — the date is recoverable from git log and the counter
carries the ordering.

A file's counter is stable for the life of the file: never reassigned,
never reused, never compacted. Deleted files retire their counter;
subsequent files do not fill the gap. This is the property that lets
cross-references stay literal — refs use the full filename including
the counter (`design/contracts/0007-honesty-rule.md`) so they grep
cleanly and resolve directly without a glob step.

313 cross-references updated across .md/.rs/.toml/.c/.json files
(test pins, include_str! paths, design-INDEX entries, baseline notes,
runtime C comments, inter-contract markdown links incl. bare basename
and `../models/foo.md` forms).

CLAUDE.md gets a new "File-naming convention" section spelling out
the rule and rationale. skills/brainstorm/SKILL.md and
skills/planner/SKILL.md updated so new spec/plan creation produces
counter-prefixed names from the start.

The full test suite (cargo test --workspace) passes.

# Cross-model authoring-form test
Empirical measurement of whether `.ail.json` or `.ail` is the form a
foreign LLM author reaches for and succeeds with. Single subject for
v1: Qwen3-Coder-Next via IONOS. Two blind cohorts; same four tasks.
Parent spec: `docs/specs/0017-cross-model-authoring-form-test.md`.
## Layout
- `master/spec.md` — canonical mini-spec source (form-agnostic prose +
`{form-only: X}` blocks + `{example: id}` markers).
- `master/examples/*.ail.json` — AST source-of-truth; each example
prints to either form via the existing roundtrip machinery.
- `master/tasks/*.task.json` — task definitions consumed by the
harness. **Authored in cma.2**, not cma.1.
- `render/` — standalone Cargo crate, outside the root workspace,
builds the renderer binary.
- `rendered/json.md`, `rendered/ail.md` — projected mini-specs,
checked into the repo for review.
- `harness/`**Authored in cma.2**.
- `runs/<date>-<hash>/` — populated by `harness` during a live run.
## Running the renderer
```
cargo run --manifest-path experiments/2026-05-12-cross-model-authoring/render/Cargo.toml -- \
--master experiments/2026-05-12-cross-model-authoring/master \
--rendered experiments/2026-05-12-cross-model-authoring/rendered
```
## Running the tests
```
cargo test --manifest-path experiments/2026-05-12-cross-model-authoring/render/Cargo.toml
```
Three integration tests: `example_roundtrip` (each example loads,
prints to AIL, reparses to the same canonical bytes), `spec_completeness`
(every AST variant in `ailang_core::ast` is exercised by at least
one example), `token_balance` (form-only blocks balanced within ±5%
across the two rendered files).
## Running the harness
Live mode (one full eight-run sweep, ~480k tokens budget by default):
```
export IONOS_API_TOKEN="<token>" # see roadmap entry for token provenance
cargo run --manifest-path experiments/2026-05-12-cross-model-authoring/harness/Cargo.toml -- \
--rendered experiments/2026-05-12-cross-model-authoring/rendered \
--tasks experiments/2026-05-12-cross-model-authoring/master/tasks \
--out experiments/2026-05-12-cross-model-authoring/runs \
--model Qwen/Qwen3-Coder-Next
```
The harness pre-flights `ail --version` and `clang --version` before
the first API call. Set `AIL_BIN` if `ail` is not on PATH.
Mock mode (offline; CI-friendly; bypasses the IONOS API):
```
cargo run --manifest-path experiments/2026-05-12-cross-model-authoring/harness/Cargo.toml -- \
--rendered experiments/2026-05-12-cross-model-authoring/rendered \
--tasks experiments/2026-05-12-cross-model-authoring/master/tasks \
--out /tmp/mock-runs \
--model mock \
--mock experiments/2026-05-12-cross-model-authoring/harness/tests/fixtures/mock_full_run.json
```
Tests:
```
cargo test --manifest-path experiments/2026-05-12-cross-model-authoring/harness/Cargo.toml
```
Five suites: inline `--lib` unit tests for `strip_locations` (5),
plus integration tests `strip_locations` against captured stderr
fixtures (5), `verify_references` (1, drives every reference through
the real ail+clang pipeline), `mock_full_run` (1, full eight-row
mock E2E), `budget_abort` (1). Total 13 passed.
