Standalone documentation-honesty tidy (no language/checker/codegen
change; `ail check`/`run` byte-unchanged by construction). Corrects
three false effect-system claims the effect-subsystem recon surfaced,
plus two satellite mentions, guarded by a new doc-presence pin:
- DESIGN.md Decision 3: removed the "row-polymorphic (`![IO | r]`)"
claim (no EffectRow / row variable exists in any crate — effect
sets are a flat, unordered, closed set unified by set-equality);
reconciled "`IO` and `Diverge` are wired up" to IO-only +
`Diverge` reserved/unimplemented (zero code in any crate),
modelled on Decision 4's reserved-refinements precedent.
- DESIGN.md "What is not (yet) supported": "IO and Diverge ops"
bullet -> IO-only + Diverge-reserved.
- ast.rs Term::Do doc-comment: "resolved against the effect-handler
table at link time" -> the real mechanism (typecheck lookup in
Env::effect_ops + literal lower_effect_op codegen match; no
handler table, no link-time resolution).
- form_a.md:226 + rule 3, and main.rs merge-prose CONTRACT example:
Diverge mentions reconciled in lockstep.
- new crates/ailang-core/tests/effect_doc_honesty_pin.rs: 4 tests,
fiction-absent + corrected-anchor-present, single-line wrap-robust
substrings.
cargo test --workspace 600 -> 604 (4 new pin tests, 0 regressions);
design_schema_drift / spec_drift / schema_coverage stay green,
empirically confirming none scans the effect-prose region.
