- a directory carrying wo.toml is a PROJECT: `woc .` inside it (or
`woc path/to/project` from anywhere) reads the manifest and produces
<target>/<name>, exactly what `woc build <dir> -o ...` produces
- schema is the one the sample already carried -- top-level name/
version/description, [runtime] wo (accepted, not yet enforced) --
plus a new [build] section: runtime (wovm to prepend) and target
(output dir, default "target"), both relative to the manifest's own
directory so the build is invocation-point independent
- unknown keys and sections are hard errors: a typo'd key silently
ignored would build the wrong thing
- directories WITHOUT wo.toml keep check-only semantics -- the corpus
is full of those; oop-e2e 71/0, woc-test 565/0, log-watcher 7/0
- sample's wo.toml gains the [build] section; target/ gitignored

- `woc` now emits `.wob` that `wovm` runs: emit.ml lowers the typed,
owner-annotated AST (scope-stack registers with a >64 WO-E401 diagnostic,
Lua-style call windows, ICALL by slot, dedup const pool, drop maps, line
tables, implicit terminators); disasm.ml backs `--dump-bc` goldens.
- Ownership lowering consumes the four owner tables verbatim; RESIDUAL is the
only source of borrow ops, coalesced per operand. Review caught the emitter
consuming only 2 of owner.ml's 4 residual producers — an assignment-anchored
aliasing violation ran to exit 0 instead of trapping; fixed, plus a backstop
raising WO-E404 for any residual region left unconsumed.
- Conformance harness `scripts/oop-e2e.sh` (`just oop-e2e`): four fixture
kinds with exact outcomes — byte-exact stdout, one WO-E### anchored on
`error CODE:`, numeric trap code, gc trace. 25 fixtures incl. pricing-demo
logic, the ownership suite, and DB_STUB's parse-but-trap. `tests/` un-ignored
so the corpus is actually tracked.
- `woc build` produces a self-contained binary: wovm copy + appended image +
20-byte trailer, self-exec via /proc/self/exe. Verified relocated outside
the repo, argless, and against adversarial trailer corruption.
- Milestone 1's five spec criteria all MET (`just oop-accept`). Criterion 3
closed by WO-E405 — the entry must return `Int`, since program mode already
says its return value is the exit code — which deletes the leak class
without adding return-type metadata to the format. `gc/held-cycle` retired:
an externally-held cycle is not expressible in a post-exit pump.
- New spec: inferred GC + incremental per-shard tri-color mark-sweep, retiring
`@gc` and reference counting. Story gains iterations 7b (that work) and 9b
(`@table`, relations, compiler-checked query); `.dev/reference` gains a
sparse System.Linq checkout. Priority: 5→6→7 (log-watcher) then 7b, 8, 9, 9b.
- 00-kanban.md rebuilt: ▶ NEXT PLAN pointer (iteration 4 — emitter, corpus,
`woc build`) then six buckets — stories, in progress, done, pending,
discarded, learnings. It tracked only the Rust runtime before, so the whole
OOP track (wovm shipped, woc Tasks 1-8 shipped) was invisible.
- Board now records iteration 3's known gaps instead of silently owing them:
`?T` plumbed but unenforced; E205/E201/E203/E204 dead, so structural
interface satisfaction is unchecked.
- New discarded.md — settled rejections with reasons so they are not
re-proposed: inheritance, `abstract` newtypes, Money/SKU/Float, Dynamic/cast/
macro/extern, AOT-to-C, Menhir, shared engine state, external deployer.
- RECOVERED docs/plan/exploration/blue-green-vm/00-vision.md — gone from disk,
never committed (gitignored path), cited by five docs incl. principle 12.
- Root cause was broader: all seven forward-roadmap plans in
docs/superpowers/plans/ were untracked and ignored, on one disk only. Rules
were half-fiction — 33 of 34 exploration files were already tracked, so they
swallowed only *new* files.
- Dropped the docs ignore rules (exploration, oop-vm, superpowers/plans,
examples/agent-loop, examples/mcp-think) with a do-not-re-add comment; added
__pycache__/*.pyc. `tests/` stays ignored but warns that the next plan lands
the corpus there.
Completes plan 2 Tasks 7-8. owner.ml: mutable-value-semantics flow analysis
producing the four plan-3 emitter tables (moves, drops incl. LIVE-MASK for trap
unwinding, rc with elision, residual borrow sites) plus WO-E301-304 two-site
diagnostics. Alias questions run over canonicalized places, so a double-mut
reached through let-bound aliases lands in the residual table like the direct
form; dump.ml's contract notes the emitter must coalesce guards per operand.
main.ml: directory discovery, cross-file programs (symbols merge before bodies
check), diagnostics ordered by (file,line,col), new WO-E214 for a name declared
in two files. New docs/plan/oop-vm/01-error-catalog.md (14 emitted + 10 reserved
codes), un-ignored so both plan tracks can cite it; justfile regains woc-*.
builtin_scalars is now the five that work: Int, Bool, Text, Timestamp, Id.
Money/SKU/Float and the abstract_types allowlist are gone — `abstract` never
lexed, and Float had no literal syntax and no wob kind, so no value could exist.
Fixtures and samples retype Money->Int, SKU->Text. The abstract newtype feature
is rejected outright (verdict row adopt->reject); haxe-parity Task 7 keeps `is`.
nullable-types-implementation.md corrected: ?T is plumbed but UNENFORCED
(E211-213 declared, never emitted; probe exits 0), handed to haxe-parity Task 6
as next work item. Records all 10 dead codes incl. E205 — interface satisfaction
is unchecked. crates/rt keeps its Money/SKU fixtures (opaque strings, Stage 2).
Gate: build warning-clean, 14 + 264 checks 0 failures, pricing golden exit 0,
docs/examples histograms unchanged (13/70, zero WO-E225).
prototypes/wo-rt-c — single-file C reference of the writeonce runtime
layer, zero deps beyond libc + kernel uapi: thread-per-core io_uring
event loops (raw syscalls, no liburing), SO_REUSEPORT listeners, one
mlock'd mmap arena sharded by address, WAL dual-write with group commit
(HTTP ack only after the fsync CQE), boot-time snapshot + WAL replay
recovery, and a bench harness with a Go net/http comparison server.
Measured on 20 cores: 908k reads/s p99 154us and 643k fsync-acked
commits/s p99 177us on 8 shards, vs Go net/http 495k/355k (no
durability) on 20 cores. Crash-under-load testing found and fixed an
ack-before-fsync race and an fd-reuse ABA hazard in commit-ack parking.
docs/plan/exploration/c-runtime — the phased plan (00, exit evidence
per phase), the one-address architecture trace (01), and the
single-binary end-goal contract (02). justfile carries the demo and
bench recipes; .gitignore covers binaries and data dirs.
