design-md-rolesplit.tidy — Implementation Plan (audit drift fix)

Parent spec: docs/specs/2026-05-19-design-md-rolesplit.md Scope authority: docs/journals/2026-05-19-audit-design-md-rolesplit.md "Resolution" (committed 2ba5e16) — the architect [medium]+[low] drift fix, 5 orchestrator-decided points.

For agentic workers: REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: use skills/implement to run this plan. Steps use - [ ] checkboxes for tracking.

Goal: Close the spirit-vs-letter gap: extract the faithfully-migrated history/decision-record prose out of the 3 affected contract files into the decision-record journal, fix the one stale cross-ref, re-scope the honesty sweeps to design/contracts/ only, and widen design_index_pin.rs clause-3 so the in-code hard gate provably subsumes architect_sweeps.sh Sweep-1 over the contracts scope.

Architecture: TDD by gate-first ordering — Task 1 widens clause-3 and verifies it goes RED against the current (un-stripped) contract files (proving the widened gate catches what the 6 literal markers missed); Tasks 2–5 strip the history prose (sentence-level per recon's contract-residue map) → clause-3 returns GREEN; Task 6 re-scopes the sweep + its lockstep doc; Task 7 is the whole-tree gate. Build stays green throughout (only one test file's body + Markdown change; the test compiles, fails at runtime until the strip lands). The widened clause-3 is a hand-rolled provable superset of Sweep-1 (no regex dep).

Tech Stack: Markdown (design/contracts/*.md, docs/journals/2026-05-19-design-decision-records.md), one Rust test (crates/ailang-core/tests/design_index_pin.rs), bench/architect_sweeps.sh, skills/audit/agents/ailang-architect.md.

Pinned-byte hazard (recon Cross-references — honor in every strip task): each history strip runs adjacent to a docs_honesty_pin.rs verbatim substring pin. norm() collapses whitespace but the pinned run must stay a contiguous token-run:

• str-abi.md:19 type-installed; codegen is reserved and not yet shipped ← docs_honesty_pin.rs:121-122
• typeclasses.md:317 `io/print_str` is the only built-in direct-output effect-op ← docs_honesty_pin.rs:125-126
• scope-boundaries.md:9 `Diverge` is a reserved effect name with no op and no codegen ← docs_honesty_pin.rs:112-113 (over-strip guard — NOT in any edit span; do not touch)

Task 1: widen design_index_pin.rs clause-3 (gate-first, RED)

Files:

• Modify: crates/ailang-core/tests/design_index_pin.rs:130-157 (fn contracts_carry_no_decision_record_prose)

• Step 1: Replace the clause-3 body with the widened, provable-superset matcher

Replace fn contracts_carry_no_decision_record_prose (current :130-157, the 6-literal-marker markers array + body.contains(m) loop) with this. The other 3 clauses + helpers (root :10-12, read :14-17, norm :19-21, index_tables :23-62, link_target_exists :67-81, design_md_is_gone :83-90, every_index_link_resolves :92-107, every_contract_names_a_resolvable_ratifying_test :109-128) are untouched.

    // design/contracts/ scope, PLUS the audit-named decision-record
    // phrases (the deliberate widening that closes the case-variance

    //
    // Invariant: clause-3 GREEN ⟹ Sweep-1 finds nothing in design/contracts/.

    //         (⊇ Sweep-1, never narrower). A `docs/specs/2026-..`
    //         citation has '/' before the date ⇒ NOT flagged — faithful
    //         to Sweep-1, no over-fire on legit present-tense spec

    //
    // A blanket case-insensitive iter/milestone detector was evaluated

• Step 2: Verify clause-3 is now RED against the un-stripped tree

Run: cargo test -p ailang-core --test design_index_pin contracts_carry_no_decision_record_prose 2>&1 | tail -8 Expected: FAIL — fires on still-present history prose: a PHRASES hit (e.g. clause-3: history phrase "deliberately deferred" in contract "str-abi.md") and/or the path-excluded date (clause-3: history date "2026-05-13" in contract "str-abi.md"). This is the required RED: the widened gate catches what the 6 literal case-sensitive markers missed (the capital-variance dodge).

• Step 3: Verify the other 3 clauses + build still GREEN

Run: cargo test -p ailang-core --test design_index_pin 2>&1 | grep -E '^test (design_md_is_gone|every_index_link_resolves|every_contract_names) ' Expected: those 3 still ok (only clause-3 RED). cargo build -p ailang-core --tests 2>&1 | tail -1 → Finished (the new matcher compiles; no new dependency).

Task 2: strip history prose from design/contracts/typeclasses.md

Files:

• Modify: design/contracts/typeclasses.md (:77-78, :182-186, :197-200, :279-289, :291-300, :302-317 — recon's complete scan)

• Modify: docs/journals/2026-05-19-design-decision-records.md (append at EOF, after :431)

• Step 1: Append the migrated typeclasses history to the decision-record journal

Append at EOF of docs/journals/2026-05-19-design-decision-records.md:

## Migrated from design/contracts/ at design-md-rolesplit.tidy (2026-05-19)

History/decision-record prose extracted from contract files by the
post-audit tidy (the `###`-whole relocation in iter .1 dragged these
into contracts; they are relitigation-guard content, not contract).

### typeclasses.md — Prelude-classes evolution

An earlier draft committed to a fixed Prelude (Show/Eq/Ord on the
primitives), but the implementation work to wire `int_to_str` as a
heap-allocated-string runtime primitive proved substantively
separable from the typeclass machinery itself, and the LLM-utility
case for primitive `Show` is weak (LLM-natural form is `int_to_str
x`, not `show x`). Milestone 23 added `Ordering`/`Eq`/`Ord` +
primitive instances + the five helpers; operator routing through
`Eq`/`Ord` and `print`-rewire were held out for bench-rebaseline /
post-mq-dispatcher reasons; `Show` shipped in milestone 24 (iters
24.2/24.3). `MethodNameCollision` was retired at iter mq.3
(cross-class method sharing became structurally legal). The
dedicated `KindMismatch` diagnostic was retired at iter ctt.3
(`BareCrossModuleTypeRef` subsumes it).

• Step 2: Rewrite the 6 typeclasses.md spans present-tense (recon's contract-residue map)

Apply each, keeping every present-tense contract fact, dropping the history clause:

• :77-78 Three invariants make this work, all installed in milestone 24's iter 24.3 and worth keeping load-bearing: → Three invariants make this work:

• :182-186 drop the parenthetical (MethodNameCollision was retired at iter mq.3. …) opening; keep the present-tense replacement sentence: Cross-class method sharing is structurally legal; ambiguity surfaces at the call site via AmbiguousMethodResolutionor, for class-fn name overlap, via theclass-method-shadowed-by-fn warning. See §"Method dispatch" below.

• :197-200 keep … is rejected earlier by the canonical-form validator as BareCrossModuleTypeRef—fis a bare, non-primitive name not declared as aTypeDef in the owning module.; drop so the dedicated KindMismatch diagnostic was retired at iter ctt.3.

• :279-289 (the "Milestone 22 ships no built-in Prelude classes / An earlier draft committed to…" paragraph) — delete wholesale (pure decision-record; the present-tense state is the m24 prelude below).

• :291-300 replace the Milestone 23 amends the above: paragraph with present-tense: The prelude ships the OrderingADT, theEqandOrdclasses, primitiveEq Int/Bool/StrandOrd Int/Bool/Strinstances, and the five polymorphic free-fn helpersne/lt/le/gt/ge. Float has neither EqnorOrdinstance per §"Float semantics"; a polymorphic helper invoked at Float firesNoInstance at typecheck with a Float-aware diagnostic cross-referencing this section. (drop "remain out of scope per their original substantive reasons (bench rebaseline, milestone-24 dependency…); Show itself ships in milestone 24" — that relitigation is now in the journal.)

• :302-317 replace the Milestone 24 amends the above further: opening with present-tense: The prelude ships class Show a where show : (a borrow) -> Strand primitiveShow Int, Show Bool, Show Str, Show Float instances. Float **is** included in Show (unlike Eq/Ord) … — keep verbatim and byte-contiguous the tail through :317 `io/print_str` is the only built-in direct-output effect-op (pinned by docs_honesty_pin.rs:125-126) and the :315 print_mono_body_shape.rs cross-reference; drop only Milestone 24 amends the above further, (iter 24.2), shipped in iter 24.3 (→ replace shipped in iter 24.3 with body with with body).

• Step 3: Verify typeclasses.md pin + clause-3 progress

Run: cargo test -p ailang-core --test docs_honesty_pin 2>&1 | grep -E 'test result:' Expected: PASS (the io/print_str… pinned run intact). Run grep -n 'io/print_str is the only built-in direct-output effect-op' design/contracts/typeclasses.md` Expected: exactly one contiguous match (pin survived).

Task 3: strip history prose from design/contracts/str-abi.md

Files:

• Modify: design/contracts/str-abi.md (:14, :16, :18, :20, :22-23, :74, :38-43, :45-47)

• Modify: docs/journals/2026-05-19-design-decision-records.md (append under the tidy section)

• Step 1: Append str-abi history to the journal

Append under the ## Migrated … section:

### str-abi.md — heap-Str builtin provenance + deferred-operator rationale

Builtin iter provenance: `int_to_str`/`bool_to_str`/`float_to_str`/
`str_clone` shipped iter 24.1; `str_concat` shipped iter str-concat
(2026-05-13); the non-escape static-Str lowering pass landed iter
18b, move-tracking partial-drop iter 18d.3. Operator routing through
classes is deliberately deferred — it would migrate every fixture
and re-baseline the bench corpus (a new-baseline decision, not an
iter detail). `Num` is not in milestone 22: class-based numeric
overloading would invoke literal-defaulting which axis-7 excluded.

• Step 2: Strip the (iter …) parentheticals + deferred rationale

• :14 - int_to_str : (borrow Int) -> Str (iter 24.1) — decimal rendering → - int_to_str : (borrow Int) -> Str — decimal rendering

• :16 - bool_to_str : (borrow Bool) -> Str(iter 24.1) —"true"/"false". → drop (iter 24.1)

• :18 - float_to_str : (borrow Float) -> Str (iter 24.1) — → drop (iter 24.1). Hazard: :19 type-installed; codegen is reserved and not yet shipped. is pinned (docs_honesty_pin.rs:121-122) — keep :19 byte-identical and contiguous with :18's —.

• :20 - str_clone : (borrow Str) -> Str (iter 24.1) — allocates a fresh → drop (iter 24.1)

• :22-23 - str_concat : (borrow Str, borrow Str) -> Str (iter str-concat,\n 2026-05-13) — combines … → - str_concat : (borrow Str, borrow Str) -> Str— combines twoStrvalues into a single ownedStr. (collapse the soft-wrap; drop the whole (iter str-concat, 2026-05-13) — this is the Sweep-1 exit-1 trip)

• :74 drop (iter 18b) and (iter 18d.3); keep the present-tense mechanism sentence.

• :38-43 keep `==`, `<`, `<=`, `>`, `>=` REMAIN primitive operators. Class methods are accessed by name (`eq x y`, `lt x y`, …), not via these operators. ; drop (unchanged from the original draft) and the whole Routing operators through classes is deliberately deferred — … new-baseline decision rather than an iter detail.

• :45-47 keep Arithmetic operators (+, -, *, /) stay primitive and per-type.; drop `Num` is NOT in milestone 22. and Class-based numeric overloading would invoke literal-defaulting which axis-7 already excluded.

• Step 3: Verify str-abi pin intact

Run: grep -n 'type-installed; codegen is reserved and not yet shipped' design/contracts/str-abi.md Expected: exactly one contiguous match. Run cargo test -p ailang-core --test docs_honesty_pin 2>&1 | grep 'test result:' → PASS.

Task 4: strip history prose from design/contracts/scope-boundaries.md

Files:

• Modify: design/contracts/scope-boundaries.md (:5-6, :14-17, :36-38)

• Modify: docs/journals/2026-05-19-design-decision-records.md (append under the tidy section)

• Step 1: Append scope-boundaries history to the journal

### scope-boundaries.md — retired ops + deferral rationale

Polymorphic-fn-as-value is deferred because it would need one
closure-pair global per instantiation. The per-type print ops
`io/print_int`/`io/print_bool`/`io/print_float` were retired in iter
rpe.1 (the polymorphic `print` is the canonical non-Str output path).

• Step 2: Rewrite the 3 scope-boundaries spans

• :5-6 keep Snapshot of the current boundary.; delete Items move out of this list as iterations land; the JOURNAL records when. (process-meta, not a scope contract; not decision-record either — plain delete, not journal-moved).

• :14-17 keep Polymorphic fns must be **directly called** at the use site. Passing a polymorphic fn as a value (let f = id in f(42)) is not yet supported.; drop — it would need one closure-pair global per instantiation, deferred. (rationale → journal, Step 1).

• :36-38 keep Effects on function signatures, with do op(args) for direct effect ops (io/print_str). The polymorphic print (§"Polymorphic print") is the canonical output path for non-Str values.; drop The per-type print ops io/print_int, io/print_bool, io/print_float were retired in iter rpe.1; (→ journal).

• Step 3: Over-strip guard — the Diverge pin must be untouched

Run: grep -n 'Diverge is a reserved effect name with no op and no codegen' design/contracts/scope-boundaries.md Expected: exactly one match at the original location (:9, unedited — it is NOT in any edit span; this guards against collateral deletion). cargo test -p ailang-core --test effect_doc_honesty_pin 2>&1 | grep 'test result:'` → PASS.

---

Task 5: fix the stale cross-ref in design/contracts/float-semantics.md

Files:

• Modify: design/contracts/float-semantics.md:100

• Step 1: Repoint the stale "below" direction

:99-100 verbatim Both allocate a fresh heap-Str slab at the call site (see "Str ABI" below for the dual realisation) and carry ret_mode: Own…. Replace (see "Str ABI" below for the dual realisation) → (see design/contracts/str-abi.md for the dual realisation). (design/contracts/str-abi.md exists — confirmed recon; INDEX row design/INDEX.md:93.)

• Step 2: Verify float-semantics pin intact + no stale "below"

Run: grep -n '"Str ABI" below' design/contracts/float-semantics.md || echo "CLEAN: stale below gone" Expected: CLEAN: stale below gone. Run cargo test -p ail --test eq_float_noinstance 2>&1 | grep 'test result:' → PASS.

Task 5b: residual lowercase provenance stamps (exhaustive-scan additions)

The audit's [medium] finding was a 3-file spot-check. The planning-time exhaustive scan found two more contract files carrying lowercase iter <code> provenance the audit missed (audit Resolution corrected in the same iter). These are spirit cleanup — faithful-Sweep-1/clause-3 do NOT trip on them (lowercase, no digit-anchored capital Iter), so they are not gate-blocking, but a contract carrying "iter form-a.1" is exactly the residue this milestone exists to remove. Strip + journal-note for completeness.

Files:

• Modify: design/contracts/roundtrip-invariant.md:73

• Modify: design/contracts/data-model.md:149,161

• Modify: docs/journals/2026-05-19-design-decision-records.md (append under the tidy section)

• Step 1: Append the provenance to the journal

### roundtrip-invariant.md / data-model.md — corpus + loop-recur provenance

The Form-A round-trip corpus was flipped from `.ail.json` to `.ail`
at iter form-a.1. The `loop`/`recur` schema entries were added at
loop-recur iter 1 (strictly additive; pre-existing fixtures hash
bit-identically). Provenance only — the present-tense schema/contract
is the entry shapes themselves.

• Step 2: Strip the stamps, keep the present-tense contract

• roundtrip-invariant.md:73 … in at least one .ailfixture (corpus flipped from.ail.jsonto.ail at iter form-a.1). New AST → drop the parenthetical: … in at least one .ail fixture. New AST (the invariant is "every variant appears in ≥1 .ail fixture"; the flip provenance is journal-class).

• data-model.md:149 // loop-recur iter 1: strict iteration block. binders declares → // loop: strict iteration block. binders declares (drop -recur iter 1: → the schema-comment names the construct, not the iter).

• data-model.md:161 // loop-recur iter 1: re-enter the lexically innermost enclosing → // recur: re-enter the lexically innermost enclosing (this entry is the recur schema — name it recur, drop the iter stamp).

• Leave data-model.md:154 pre-existing fixtures hash bit-identically untouched — "pre-existing" is an ordinary present-tense word, NOT provenance (faithful-Sweep-1's pre-[0-9] does not match it; confirmed).

• Step 3: Verify no lowercase iter <code> provenance remains in contracts

Run: grep -rnoE 'iter [a-z0-9][-a-z0-9.]*[0-9]' design/contracts/ | grep -ivE 'iteration|iterat' || echo "CLEAN: no iter-code provenance" Expected: CLEAN: no iter-code provenance (the (iter 24.1) / iter str-concat / iter form-a.1 / loop-recur iter 1 stamps all removed by Tasks 3 + 5b; iteration-word usages excluded). Run cargo test -p ailang-core --test design_schema_drift 2>&1 | grep 'test result:' then cargo test -p ailang-surface --test round_trip 2>&1 | grep 'test result:' Expected: both PASS — design_schema_drift anchors on the JSON "t": "loop" / "t": "recur" schema tokens (untouched; only the prose comment changed), and the round-trip corpus is content-unchanged.

Task 6: re-scope architect_sweeps.sh honesty sweeps + lockstep doc

Files:

• Modify: bench/architect_sweeps.sh:25 (+ header :5-7)

• Modify: skills/audit/agents/ailang-architect.md:77-84

• Step 1: Narrow DESIGN_GLOB to design/contracts

bench/architect_sweeps.sh:25 verbatim DESIGN_GLOB="design/contracts design/models" → DESIGN_GLOB="design/contracts". (Substantive reason, encoded as a comment on the same line: # contracts only — design/models is the narrative tier; "as of milestone N" context is legitimate there.) Header :5-7 prose design/ prose set (design/contracts + design/models) → design/contracts (the honesty-bound contract surface; design/models is the narrative tier, out of honesty-sweep scope). The 5 run_sweep regexes (:46-59) are unchanged; the exit-code block (:61-64) is unchanged.

• Step 2: Lockstep ailang-architect.md

In skills/audit/agents/ailang-architect.md the :77-84 history-anchor-regrowth bullet: append one sentence after the exit-semantics lines: Sweeps 1–4 scan design/contracts/only —design/models/ is the narrative tier (§ reading-list: "context, not a drift surface"), so a milestone-context phrase there is not a regrowth. (:34 already states models/ is not a drift surface; this makes the sweep scope explicit and consistent.) No other edit; Sweep count stays 5 so docs_honesty_pin.rs:10 //! needs no change.

• Step 3: Verify the sweep now scans contracts only

Run: bash bench/architect_sweeps.sh; echo "exit=$?" Expected: at this point Tasks 2–5b have stripped the contract history, so exit=0 and All five sweeps clean. (If exit 1 with a design/contracts/... match, a history span was missed — fix it; if the match is design/models/... the glob narrowing didn't apply — re-check :25.)

---

Task 7: whole-tree GREEN gate (milestone-close proof)

Files: none (verification only).

• Step 1: clause-3 now GREEN, design_index_pin 4/4

Run: cargo test -p ailang-core --test design_index_pin 2>&1 | grep -E '^test |test result:' Expected: all 4 ok — contracts_carry_no_decision_record_prose flipped RED→GREEN (history stripped), the other 3 unchanged-GREEN.

• Step 2: the retargeted pins + E2Es still GREEN

Run: cargo test -p ailang-core --test design_schema_drift --test docs_honesty_pin --test effect_doc_honesty_pin 2>&1 | grep 'test result:' Expected: 3× PASS. Run cargo test -p ail --test eq_float_noinstance --test show_no_instance_e2e 2>&1 | grep 'test result:' Expected: 2× PASS.

• Step 3: whole workspace GREEN + sweep exit 0 + acceptance grep

Run: cargo test --workspace 2>&1 | grep -oE '[0-9]+ passed; [0-9]+ failed' | awk -F'[ ;]' '{p+=$1; f+=$4} END {print "TOTAL passed="p" failed="f}' Expected: failed=0 and passed ≥ 646 (the iter .1 baseline; the widened clause-3 adds no new test count, it replaces a body). Run: bash bench/architect_sweeps.sh; echo "exit=$?" Expected: exit=0. Run: grep -rIn 'DESIGN\.md' . --exclude-dir=.git --exclude-dir=target | grep -vE '(^\./)?(docs/(journals/|specs/|plans/|roadmap\.md|WhatsNew\.md|journal-archive\.md)|bench/orchestrator-stats/)' | grep -v 'design-md-rolesplit' | grep -v 'design_index_pin.rs' || echo "CLEAN" Expected: CLEAN (no live-ref regression from the tidy edits).

Self-review (planner Step 5)

1. Spec/Resolution coverage: Task 1 = Resolution-4 (clause-3 = faithful-Sweep-1 + path-excluded-date + PHRASES; the case-insensitive-iter-detector mechanism was found unworkable and is corrected in the audit Resolution + this plan — it conflated the "Iter A/B" rule-names and "pre-existing"/"pre-set" with provenance); Tasks 2–4 = Resolution-1 (history → journal, the 3 audit-named files); Task 5 = Resolution-2 (stale "below"); Task 5b = Resolution-1 scope correction (the planning-time exhaustive scan found 2 more contract files with lowercase provenance the audit's 3-file spot-check missed); Task 6 = Resolution-3 (sweep re-scope + lockstep); Task 7 = Resolution-5 exit state. All points covered, scope corrected on evidence. ✓
2. Placeholder scan: no TBD/TODO/"similar to". Every strip names the exact recon line + verbatim before→after text. ✓
3. Type/path consistency: design/contracts/str-abi.md, docs/journals/2026-05-19-design-decision-records.md, contracts_carry_no_decision_record_prose used identically across tasks; the journal append section header ## Migrated … (2026-05-19) consistent Tasks 2/3/4. ✓
4. Step granularity: each step is one file's edit-set or one Run; the largest (Task 2 Step 2, 6 spans) is one mechanical-per-span pass, 2–5 min. ✓
5. No commit steps: none. ✓
6. Pin/replacement contiguity: the three docs_honesty_pin.rs pinned runs (str-abi.md:19, typeclasses.md:317, scope-boundaries.md:9) are called out as hazards in the header AND verified by an explicit grep -n contiguity check in Tasks 2/3/4 Step 3 + the over-strip guard in Task 4 Step 3. The widened clause-3 matcher (Task 1) is a single self-contained function body — no cross-task substring split. ✓
7. Compile-gate vs deferred-caller: the only Rust edit is one self-contained test fn body (Task 1); it compiles standalone (no signature change, no caller, no new dependency — hand-rolled matcher). Every Run gate is satisfiable at its task: Task 1 Step 2 expects RED (pre-strip), Task 7 expects GREEN (post-strip); no gate depends on a later task's code. Build green throughout (test compiles; only its runtime assertion is RED until the strip lands). ✓
8. Verification filter strings resolve: -p ailang-core --test design_index_pin / design_schema_drift / docs_honesty_pin / effect_doc_honesty_pin, -p ail --test eq_float_noinstance / show_no_instance_e2e, and -p ailang-surface --test round_trip (Task 5b — corrected to its real crate ailang-surface, not ail) all exist (iter .1 created/retargeted them). The clause-3 filter contracts_carry_no_decision_record_prose is the exact fn name. Task 7 Step 3 uses the unfiltered cargo test --workspace with a numeric failed=0 + passed≥646 assertion (cannot masquerade as "nothing ran"). The grep/bash architect_sweeps gates have explicit CLEAN/exit=0 sentinels; Task 5b Step 3's grep … || echo "CLEAN…" likewise. ✓

Plan is placeholder-free; clause-3 is a hand-rolled faithful Sweep-1 superset — faithful-Sweep-1 line anchors (case-sensitive, digit-anchored — confirmed ZERO across all contracts) + Sweep-1's path-excluded date + the audit-named decision-record phrases; no regex dep, no blanket iter detector (the rejected mechanism). The audit Resolution-4 is corrected in lockstep. Hand off to implement.
