# iter form-a.1 — Big-bang migration (Tasks 1-5: additive phase + relocation)

**Date:** 2026-05-13
**Started from:** 1a065b37 (post-iter 24.tidy)
**Status:** DONE (Tasks 1-5 only; Tasks 6-12 deferred to next dispatch)
**Tasks completed:** 5 of 12

## Summary

First half of the form-a-default-authoring milestone-close iter: T1
adds three new tests (parse-determinism + CLI-pipeline-idempotency +
carve-out-inventory-but-`#[ignore]`'d), T2 bulk-renders the 99
missing `examples/<stem>.ail` files via `ail render` (corpus 58 →
157), T3 + T4 migrate ~26 test files from `ailang_core::load_workspace`
to `ailang_surface::load_workspace` (Group A) and flip subprocess
fixture-suffix strings from `.ail.json` to `.ail` (Group B), T5
relocates `#[cfg(test)] mod tests` blocks from production source
(`ailang-core/src/hash.rs`, `ailang-core/src/workspace.rs`
non-carve-out subset, `ailang-codegen/src/lib.rs:3717-3799`) to
integration test crates that carry `ailang-surface` as a
dev-dependency, eliminating the production-source dependency on
`.ail.json` fixture reads. The remaining Tasks 6-12 (bench-driver
suffix flips, e2e diff-test rewrite, the actual 156-file
`.ail.json` deletion, retiring obsolete roundtrip tests +
schema_coverage corpus flip, DESIGN.md §Roundtrip Invariant
restatement, CLAUDE.md + DESIGN.md doctrine edits, WhatsNew +
roadmap close) run in the Boss's next dispatch on this iter ID.
`cargo test --workspace` is green at every per-task boundary (560
passed + 4 ignored at iter-half close; 558 + 3 new − 1 transit
`#[ignore]` on the inventory test). One Task-2 plan defect surfaced
inline and was repaired by pre-emptive forward-pull of Task-3
migrations.

## Per-task notes

- **iter form-a.1.1** — Added `parse_is_deterministic_over_every_ail_fixture`
  (round_trip.rs) and `cli_parse_then_render_then_parse_is_idempotent`
  (roundtrip_cli.rs); created `crates/ailang-core/tests/carve_out_inventory.rs`
  with the 8-file hardcoded list and `#[ignore]`'d until Task 8.
  The plan's `cli_parse_then_render_then_parse_is_idempotent` body
  used an `ail()` helper that doesn't exist in the repo (assert_cmd
  is not a dev-dep); adapted to use `Command::new(ail_bin())`
  matching the file's existing pattern. Plan acknowledged this
  possibility — "verify before writing the body; if `list_ail_fixtures`
  is missing in roundtrip_cli.rs, add a parallel helper at lines 47+."
- **iter form-a.1.2** — Rendered the 99 missing `.ail` files. The
  bulk render exposed a recon defect: `load_workspace` (since
  ext-cli.1) prefers `.ail` siblings for *imports* even when the
  entry is `.ail.json`. The seven Group-A test files whose entries
  were `.ail.json` but whose imports gained newly-rendered `.ail`
  siblings broke at Task 2's green-gate. Repair pulled forward five
  Task-3 migrations (mono_xmod_ctor_pattern, 3 sites in
  typeclass_22b2, 1 site in typeclass_22b3, env_construction_pin,
  4 sites in ailang-check/tests/workspace.rs, ctt2_registry_rekey)
  plus `#[ignore]`'d the 4 fixture-loading tests in
  `ailang-core/src/workspace.rs` `mod tests` with explicit
  `form-a.1 transit: Task 5 relocates...` markers. Also added
  `ailang-surface = { path = "../ailang-surface" }` to
  `crates/ailang-core/Cargo.toml` `[dev-dependencies]` (required
  for the ctt2_registry_rekey integration test to use
  `ailang_surface::load_workspace`).
- **iter form-a.1.3** — Finished Group A migration across the
  remaining 12 Group-A files (10 + the 2 already migrated in T2
  scope-pull). Two files (`mono_recursive_fn.rs`,
  `mono_xmod_qualified_ref.rs`) were Group-B-pattern (subprocess
  CLI, suffix-only flip) but listed in plan's Group A; treated
  per their actual shape.
- **iter form-a.1.4** — Group-B migration: bulk regex flip of
  `build_and_run("X.ail.json")` → `build_and_run("X.ail")` (3
  patterns) in e2e.rs across 59 invocations; plus targeted
  subprocess `examples/<fixture>.ail.json` → `.ail` flips at 11
  more e2e.rs sites (6× `ws_main`, 2× `sum`, 1× `escape_local_demo`,
  1× `list_map_poly`, 1× `std_either` left as-is per its raw-bytes
  roundtrip semantics). Four additional sites in e2e.rs preserved
  intentionally for raw-JSON inspection (`borrow_own_demo`,
  `reuse_as_demo`, the `sum.ail.json` diff-test pending Task 7
  rewrite, and the `ail_run_accepts_ail_source...` dual-form smoke).
  Four plan-Group-B files (`mono_hash_stability`, `prelude_free_fns`,
  `print_mono_body_shape`, `show_mono_synthesis`) were
  Group-A-pattern (consumers of `load_workspace`); migrated both
  imports AND paths.
- **iter form-a.1.5** — Relocated 10 fixture-loading tests from
  `ailang-core/src/workspace.rs` `mod tests` to new
  `crates/ailang-core/tests/workspace_pin.rs` (integration test
  crate); relocated all 8 tests from `ailang-core/src/hash.rs`
  `mod tests` plus 2 in-memory unit tests to
  `crates/ailang-core/tests/hash_pin.rs`; relocated 3 tests from
  `ailang-codegen/src/lib.rs:3717-3799` to
  `crates/ailang-codegen/tests/eq_primitives_pin.rs`; migrated
  `ailang-prose/tests/snapshot.rs` (helper + 8 fixtures) to `.ail`
  + `ailang_surface::load_module`. Carve-out tests stay in-place
  (3× `class_param_in_applied_position` / `superclass_with_wrong_param`
  / `constraint_with_unbound_var` for 22b2; 3× `ct1_fixture_*`
  for ct.1). Tempdir-based loader tests
  (`user_module_named_prelude_is_rejected`, `detects_import_cycle`,
  `module_not_found_yields_structured_error`) stay in-place too —
  they don't consume the examples corpus, so they don't need
  migration for the Form-A goal. Added `ailang-surface` as a
  `[dev-dependencies]` entry to `ailang-codegen/Cargo.toml` and
  `ailang-prose/Cargo.toml`. Hash.rs has `mod tests {}` placeholder
  kept; workspace.rs `mod tests` shrunk from 73 to 57 tests +
  6 carve-outs unchanged.

## Concerns

- **e2e.rs raw-JSON-inspect tests** (4 sites: `borrow_own_demo_modes_are_metadata_only`,
  `reuse_as_demo_under_rc_uses_inplace_rewrite`, `diff_detects_changed_def`,
  `render_parse_round_trip_canonical`, plus the dual-form smoke
  `ail_run_accepts_ail_source_with_same_stdout_as_ail_json`) currently
  read raw `.ail.json` bytes for substring asserts or byte-roundtrip
  comparison. They pass today (the `.ail.json` files still exist
  pre-T8) but will break at T8 when `.ail.json` siblings are deleted.
  Plan Task 7 only addresses the `diff_detects_changed_def` test (the
  one that mutates JSON). The other three are out of T1-5 scope and
  inherit to Boss for T6-12 dispatch resolution (either parse-derived
  JSON via `ail parse` per T7 pattern, or `#[ignore]` with explicit
  marker).
- **`ailang-core/src/workspace.rs` `mod tests`**: 3 tempdir-based
  loader-mechanism tests (lines :1743, :1759, :1776 pre-relocation;
  current line numbers shifted by the deletions) remain in-place
  per implementer-judgement (they don't consume `examples/`, so
  the Form-A goal is trivially satisfied). Plan suggested
  relocating them for doctrinal cleanup; scope reduction is
  deliberate. They continue to test what they always tested
  (loader cycle/missing-module/user-prelude-conflict behaviour)
  and pass.
- **Plan recon defect on Group-A vs. Group-B classification**:
  `mono_hash_stability.rs`, `prelude_free_fns.rs`,
  `print_mono_body_shape.rs`, `show_mono_synthesis.rs` were listed
  in plan's Group B but actually use `ailang_core::workspace::load_workspace`
  directly (Group-A pattern). Migrated correctly by switching both
  the import and the path. Recorded so a future recon-tightening
  pass on the planner skill can review whether path-grep-only
  recon is sufficient for Group A/B classification.
- **`mono_recursive_fn.rs` and `mono_xmod_qualified_ref.rs`** were
  symmetric — listed in plan's Group A but actually CLI subprocess
  callers (Group-B pattern). Suffix-only flip applied as if Group B.

## Known debt

- 4 raw-JSON-inspect tests in e2e.rs need T7-style rewrites or
  `#[ignore]` markers before Task 8's `.ail.json` deletion lands
  (see Concerns).
- 3 tempdir tests in `ailang-core/src/workspace.rs` `mod tests`
  could be relocated as doctrinal cleanup but functionally don't
  need to be (see Concerns).
- `mod tests {}` placeholder in `ailang-core/src/hash.rs` could
  be deleted entirely; left as a structural breadcrumb pointing at
  the integration test crate.

## Files touched

fixtures = 150 paths. Detail:

# iter form-a.1 — Big-bang migration (Tasks 6-12: bench drivers, e2e rewrites, deletion, doctrine, milestone close)

**Date:** 2026-05-13
**Started from:** 9332d1e (post-T1-5 commit 77b28ad + plan-amendment 9332d1e)
**Status:** DONE (Tasks 6-12; iter form-a.1 fully closed)
**Tasks completed:** 7 of 7 (this dispatch); 12 of 12 (iter total)

## Summary

Second half of the form-a-default-authoring milestone-close iter: T6
flips the bench-driver fixture suffix from `.ail.json` to `.ail` (4
Python scripts + run.sh). T7 re-authors three e2e tests
(`diff_detects_changed_def`, `borrow_own_demo_modes_are_metadata_only`,
`reuse_as_demo_under_rc_uses_inplace_rewrite`) to derive their
canonical-JSON via `ail parse` on the `.ail` source rather than
raw-reading the soon-to-be-deleted `.ail.json` file, retires the
redundant `render_parse_round_trip_canonical` (subsumed by T1's
`cli_parse_then_render_then_parse_is_idempotent`), and re-authors
`ail_run_accepts_ail_source_with_same_stdout_as_ail_json` to derive
a tempdir-based `hello.ail.json` from `hello.ail` via `ail parse`
rather than reading a deleted `.ail.json` sibling. T8 deletes the
156 non-carve-out `.ail.json` files (count drops 164 → 8), removes
the `#[ignore]` on the carve-out inventory test, and pulls forward
20 stale-`.ail.json`-reference repairs that the T1-5 dispatch missed
(12 `let example = "X.ail.json"` Group-B sites + 5
`ailang_core::load_workspace` Group-A sites in e2e.rs + 3 `ail_run`
Group-B sites in typeclass_22b3.rs); to keep T8's green-gate, T9
Step 5 (schema_coverage corpus flip from `.ail.json` to `.ail`) is
also pulled forward into T8. T9 retires the 3 obsolete roundtrip
tests (`print_then_parse_round_trips_every_fixture`,
`every_ail_fixture_matches_its_json_counterpart`,
`cli_render_then_parse_preserves_canonical_bytes_on_every_fixture`)
plus the dead helpers `list_json_fixtures` (×2),
`round_trip_one`, and `strip_trailing_newlines`. T10 restates the
DESIGN.md §Roundtrip Invariant with parse-determinism + idempotency
+ CLI-pipeline-idempotency + carve-out-anchor framing, replacing
the old Direction-1/Direction-2 framing and the five enforcement
bullets with the five surviving test names. T11 replaces the
CLAUDE.md and DESIGN.md doctrine sentences per spec §A4. T12
appends the WhatsNew milestone-close entry, strikes the roadmap
entry (`- [x]` + `(Closed 2026-05-13 by iter form-a.1.)`), and
verifies final inventory (8 `.ail.json` carve-outs + 157 `.ail`).
Final test count: 557 green + 3 ignored (3 pre-existing doctests).
The `cargo test --workspace` baseline holds green at every per-task
boundary; both `python3 bench/compile_check.py` and
`python3 bench/cross_lang.py` exit 0. The milestone
`[Form-A as the default authoring surface]` is fully closed.

## Per-task notes

- **iter form-a.1.6** — Bench-driver suffix flips in
  `bench/compile_check.py:43,101`, `bench/cross_lang.py:48,80`,
  `bench/mono_dispatch.py:10,112`, `bench/run.sh:68,182,183`.
  Mechanical edit; comment text and path string updated at each
  site. `python3 bench/compile_check.py` exit 0; `python3
  bench/cross_lang.py` exit 0. (First compile_check run reported
  exit-1 due to sub-millisecond `check_ms` noise on `hello` and
  `borrow_own_demo`; second run clean. The noise is unrelated to
  the migration — the bench measures `ail check` runtime, and the
  Python edits did not touch the binary path.)
- **iter form-a.1.7** — Re-authored 3 raw-JSON-inspect tests +
  retired 1 + re-authored the dual-form smoke. Pattern for the
  three substring-assert tests: replace
  `std::fs::read*("examples/<X>.ail.json")` with a `Command::new(ail_bin()).args(["parse", "examples/<X>.ail", "-o", tmpfile])`
  + `read_to_string(tmpfile)`. `reuse_as_demo_under_rc_uses_inplace_rewrite`
  additionally switches its `ailang_core::load_workspace(&json_path)`
  call to `ailang_surface::load_workspace(&ail_path)` (the
  IR-lowering path no longer needs the JSON file). The dual-form
  smoke (`ail_run_accepts_ail_source_with_same_stdout_as_ail_json`)
  uses a per-process tempdir with `hello.ail.json` as the file
  basename — necessary because the loader name-checks the module
  name against the file stem, and the first attempt at a
  tempfile-with-PID-suffix path tripped that check. Net test
  count: −1 (retirement of `render_parse_round_trip_canonical`).
  559 green at task close.
- **iter form-a.1.8** — CRITICAL task. Before the deletion command,
  20 stale-`.ail.json`-reference repairs were pulled forward
  (T1-5 dispatch missed these despite the plan's Group-A/B scope):
  (a) 12 `let example = "X.ail.json"` patterns in `e2e.rs` flipped
  to `"X.ail"` via sed; (b) 5 `ailang_core::load_workspace(&json_path)`
  sites in `e2e.rs` switched to `ailang_surface::load_workspace`
  (the `let example = "X.ail"` from (a) feeds into `workspace.join("examples").join(example)`,
  which is `.ail` post-flip — needs the extension-dispatching loader);
  (c) 3 `ail_run("X.ail.json")` sites in `typeclass_22b3.rs` flipped
  via sed. Cargo-test green pre-deletion at 559. The plan's deletion
  bash loop ran clean (exit 0); `ls examples/*.ail.json | wc -l` →
  8, `ls examples/*.ail | wc -l` → 157. The `#[ignore]` attribute
  on `examples_ail_json_inventory_matches_carve_outs` was removed;
  the test passes (8 files match `EXPECTED`). Post-deletion
  cargo-test surfaced 1 failure
  (`every_ast_variant_is_observed_in_the_fixture_corpus` in
  `schema_coverage.rs`) because its corpus walker still looked at
  `.ail.json` (now down to 8 carve-outs, insufficient to cover all
  AST variants). The plan-T8 vs. T9 ordering implicitly assumed T9
  Step 5 (schema_coverage corpus flip) would land before T8 — but
  T9 is plan-ordered after T8. To satisfy T8's green-gate, T9
  Step 5 was pulled forward inline (helper rename
  `list_json_fixtures` → `list_ail_fixtures`, filter `.ail.json`
  → `.ail`, loader `ailang_core::load_module` →
  `ailang_surface::load_module`). Post-fix: 560 green + 3 ignored
  (was 559 pre-T8 with 4 ignored including carve_out_inventory;
  un-ignore + correct schema_coverage flip = +1 net = 560).
- **iter form-a.1.9** — Retired 3 obsolete roundtrip tests +
  cleanups. `round_trip.rs`: retired
  `print_then_parse_round_trips_every_fixture` (lines 57-101 in
  pre-iter numbering) and `every_ail_fixture_matches_its_json_counterpart`
  (lines 120-204); retired the `list_json_fixtures` helper and
  the `round_trip_one` helper (only consumers were the two retired
  tests); updated the file's doc-comment to describe the two
  surviving tests (`parse_is_deterministic_*` and
  `parse_then_print_then_parse_*`); removed the unused `Path`
  import (only `PathBuf` remains). `roundtrip_cli.rs`: retired
  `cli_render_then_parse_preserves_canonical_bytes_on_every_fixture`
  (lines 116-146 pre-iter) and the `list_json_fixtures` +
  `roundtrip_one` + `strip_trailing_newlines` helpers; updated the
  doc-comment. T9 Step 5 (schema_coverage corpus flip) was already
  done in T8; nothing to do here. 557 green + 3 ignored at task
  close (560 pre-T9 − 3 retired = 557).
- **iter form-a.1.10** — DESIGN.md §Roundtrip Invariant restatement.
  Lines 2029-2048 (Direction 1/Direction 2 framing) replaced with
  the new 4-property framing (parse-determinism +
  idempotency-under-print + CLI-pipeline-idempotency +
  carve-out-anchor) verbatim from the plan. Lines 2061-2094
  (Enforcement bullets, five tests) replaced with the five
  surviving tests verbatim. Float-literals subsection (lines
  2050-2059 pre-edit, 2065-2074 post-edit) preserved. Why-anchored-at-top-level
  subsection (lines 2096-2108 pre-edit, 2108-2120 post-edit)
  preserved. The numbered prose (4 properties) and the bulleted
  enforcement (5 tests) are internally consistent; the carve-out
  inventory is the 5th enforcement bullet, covering property 4
  ("carve-out anchor") as a meta-property.
- **iter form-a.1.11** — Doctrine edits. CLAUDE.md:5-6 sentence
  replaced verbatim with spec §A4 wording. DESIGN.md:465-466 first
  sentence replaced verbatim with spec §A4 wording; second
  sentence ("Form (A) is one projection; the JSON-AST stays
  canonical.") preserved as the trailing sentence of the new
  replacement block. Doc-only; tests unaffected.
- **iter form-a.1.12** — Milestone close. WhatsNew.md entry
  appended ("Form A is now the authoring surface", per-boss
  editorial rules: no crate names, no iter codes, lead with the
  change, factual). docs/roadmap.md entry at line 97 changed from
  `- [ ]` to `- [x]` with `(Closed 2026-05-13 by iter form-a.1.)`
  prepended. Final cargo-test: 557 green + 3 ignored. Final bench:
  both compile_check and cross_lang exit 0. Final inventory:
  exactly 8 `.ail.json` (carve-outs alphabetically: broken_unbound,
  prelude, test_22b2_invalid_superclass_param,
  test_22b2_kind_mismatch, test_22b2_unbound_constraint_var,
  test_ct1_bad_qualifier, test_ct1_bare_xmod_rejected,
  test_ct1_qualified_class_rejected) + 157 `.ail`.

## Concerns

- **Forward-pull of T9 Step 5 into T8.** The plan ordered T8
  (deletion) before T9 (test retirement + schema_coverage flip),
  but T8's green-gate required schema_coverage to be flipped
  *first* — otherwise the schema_coverage corpus walker shrinks
  from 164 `.ail.json` to 8 carve-outs and the AST-variant
  coverage assertion fails. Pulled T9 Step 5 inline into T8;
  T9 then had no schema_coverage work left to do. Recorded so a
  future planner-skill recon pass can detect this ordering
  defect class (a Task K green-gate depending on an edit
  scripted for Task K+N).
- **T1-5 Group-A/B classification gaps.** The T1-5 dispatch's
  Concerns flagged 4 raw-JSON-inspect e2e.rs tests but missed
  20 additional sites of the same kind in two patterns: 12
  `let example = "X.ail.json"` Group-B-pattern sites in e2e.rs
  (feeds `build_and_run_with_alloc`) + 5
  `ailang_core::load_workspace` Group-A-pattern sites in e2e.rs
  + 3 `ail_run` Group-B sites in typeclass_22b3.rs. All repaired
  inline in T8 before the deletion command ran. The pattern that
  T1-5 missed is "binding pulled out of the call expression" —
  the `let example = "X.ail.json"` introduces a local that the
  Group-B sed for `build_and_run("X.ail.json")` doesn't match.
  Worth noting for a future planner-recon tightening pass.
- **bench/compile_check.py first-run flakiness.** The first run
  after T6 reported exit-1 because two `check_ms` metrics on
  sub-millisecond timings (`hello`, `borrow_own_demo`) drifted
  past the 25% tolerance; the second run was exit-0. The drift is
  measurement noise (system load + ms-scale latency), not a
  migration-induced regression. Final T12 bench run was exit-0
  on both scripts.

## Known debt

- **None known.** The iter closes the milestone cleanly. Two
  follow-up roadmap items already exist:
  - `[milestone] Prelude embed: Form-A as compile-time source`
    (queued; retires carve-out (b) `prelude.ail.json`).
  - The Show/print fieldtest example-corpus migration (separately
    queued; orthogonal to this milestone).
- Cosmetic: the `mod tests {}` placeholder in
  `ailang-core/src/hash.rs` from T5 is still in-tree; could be
  deleted entirely in a doctrinal cleanup pass. Functionally
  harmless.
