516bd8362d docs(db2-keys): a runnable example for per-table storage
- docs/examples/residency: one program, two tables filled by the same
  loop, differing only in the annotation. Run twice against one WO_DATA
  and orders replay while sessions do not
- the example checks its own claim (exits 1 if a durable:false table
  survives, or a durable:true one fails to replay) rather than narrating
  it in a print
- resident: keys is written out as a commented block with the loader's
  exact refusal, so the frontier is visible in the example rather than
  only in a story. It documents WHERE the refusal happens: woc compiles
  it and emits a .wob; wovm exits 2, because the annotation is a
  load-time property
- residency-accept gains two legs: the example runs and its restart
  claim holds, and the refusal message the README quotes is checked so
  doc and code cannot drift apart
- the gate writes the example's output to /tmp/residency.log,
  banner-separated, for tail -F
- README commands verified verbatim; they needed mkdir -p because wovm
  will not create WO_DATA

8311330531 docs(db2-keys): reconcile databasev2 and porch markdown with the code
- loader's resident:keys refusal said "rows are still fully resident"
  and "until tasks 5c/5d land". Both false since f606fc9. Corrected to
  name the real blocker: UPDATE needs read-modify-append
- databasev2 00-story: the sequence graph drew 2->3->4, which reads as
  3 needing 2 and 4 needing 3. Both backwards, and it still drew the
  2->5->6 path the 2026-08-27 amendment retired. Redrawn stating only
  real dependencies, with 4 and 3 shown as composing rather than
  ordered, and the execution order that actually happened
- databasev2 03: the hazard and its Outstanding entry both claimed
  nothing fails "because iteration 2's storage half is unimplemented".
  Marked discharged, and recorded that the hazard named only half the
  danger — the bitmap walk would have dropped keys rows outright
- databasev2 06: pending -> hold (largely superseded, revisit only on
  a measurement); dated its 5c/5d references
- porch 01: rewritten to the settled shape. readiness ready, status
  in-progress, phases B and C marked superseded with why
- porch 01 claimed time.after "is still a reserved builtin id". False —
  builtin 90, implemented. That claim is what made the iteration look
  cheaper than it is
- porch README gains honest ledger rows for both features (partial,
  being rebuilt), not shipped
- skill-catalog README pointed at a story path that moved tracks;
  linkcheck now 0 broken

02b4b13a52 Merge master into db-residency-doctrine — and close the two half-exposed features
The branch was 17 ahead / 25 behind with 11 conflicting files, and drifting
further: db.c had been rewritten twice on master since (group commit, then
compaction). Resolved rather than rebased so both histories stay legible.

Conflicts, and how each was settled:

- db.c: BOTH semantics kept. Master's fatal path and compaction check now sit
  behind the branch's `table_is_durable` predicate, in all three inline arms —
  a volatile table reaches neither the barrier nor the compaction check
- db-bench sample: every mode from both sides (growth, growth-verify, randread,
  replayseed, wmix) and ONE `boot` mode, which both sides had added
  independently
- db-bench.py: all six legs kept. Both sides had also grown the same
  WAL-size helper under different names; collapsed into one
- perf-targets: the branch's §5 (RAM ceiling) then master's §6/§7 — master's
  numbering had already assumed a §5 it did not have
- story frontmatter: master's `status` (the landing truth) plus the branch's
  `readiness` axis. 03 would have read `done` + `refine`, which is a
  contradiction — it was brainstormed and landed on master, so `ready`
- board: both standup blocks newest-first; master's chain rows (a superset);
  the branch's databasev2 1-2 rows with master's 3-4. Fixed a stray `|` in
  master's row 3
- baseline: master's, then REGENERATED from a full campaign — 143 metrics,
  132 checks, 0 failures with both sides' legs present

TWO HALF-EXPOSED FEATURES FIXED, because the merge rule is that master gets
no feature that is honoured in name only:

- `resident: keys` PARSED, set a .wob flag, and did nothing: rows stayed fully
  resident. A developer could declare a 120 GB table keys-resident, watch it
  compile, and be OOM-killed. The loader now REFUSES it with a message naming
  what to write instead, until tasks 5c/5d land. The compiler still parses it
  and its AST golden still passes, so the grammar work stays tested
- `durable: false` was honoured ONLY on the inline path. wo_db_exec_req had no
  guard at all, so a volatile table written from an actor on a worker shard
  would still be logged — precisely porch's session-table case, and precisely
  what iteration 2 exists to provide. All three request-path arms now carry the
  same predicate. Found by reading the merged code, not by a test: the obvious
  probe runs main() on the primary and therefore only exercises the inline path

Verified on the merged tree: wovm-test 0, woc-test 0, oop-e2e 122/0,
residency-accept 8/0, db-bench 132/0, linkcheck clean.

8b29eb492c docs(db): T6 closeout — checkpoint documented, chain's last link lands
databasev2 3, task 6. Documentation, plus three gate-tolerance
corrections that are justified rather than silent.

- 04-db-binding.md: the NORMATIVE rule — compaction may run only where
  nothing is staged (a correctness requirement, not scheduling), recovery
  is unchanged, and a failed compaction is a missed optimisation rather
  than a durability event
- database/src/CODE-LOGIC.md: why one file and not snapshot-plus-tail
  (Postgres CANNOT compact — page deltas; ours are full row images, so a
  compacted log IS a store), why rename is the whole crash-safety story,
  why the dump flushes but does NOT fsync when it does, why the
  replacement is preallocated, and where the trigger is checked
- README: the checkpoint knobs, the extended walstats line, the boot mode
- story -> status: done, with criteria split met/outstanding
- board: standup entry in the six-question shape, both rows rewritten

THE OBLIGATION IS AT THE COMPACTOR, not only in a spec: compaction moves
every record, so it invalidates every WAL offset iteration 2's
`resident: keys` stores, and the loop that knows each record's new
position must rebuild that map. Nothing fails today because that storage
half is unimplemented — it would fail later, looking like corruption.

Board claim corrected before it shipped: I wrote that the concurrency
chain is "complete". It is not — chain 5 stays in-progress because
databasev2 4's part B was never done and its premise was invalidated by
part A. Every link has landed its PLANNED work; that is a different
statement.

Gate tolerances, each with the measurement that justifies it:

- ckpt.pause_us_max is no longer gated relatively. The raw pause scales
  with the live set and this workload's live set is not fixed (wmix's
  hist_dump inserts a row per latency bucket), so gating it gates the
  box. Added ckpt.pause_us_per_mb — the engine's own rate, gated for
  real, and the metric that would have caught the 8x dump regression —
  with the absolute 50ms budget still guarding the raw pause
- ram.*.msgrate 15% -> 70%. PRE-EXISTING, and measured: 10.7M-17.9M
  msgs/sec across ten full runs, several predating this work — a 1.67x
  spread against a 15% gate
- durable.sN.*.p99us 100% -> 300%, with more evidence than the first
  widening: mixread 1043/2318/4147us, mixwrite 1623/4446us on the same
  build. Floors stay the real guard and are not slack

Battery: wovm-test 36 suites 0 fail, woc-test, oop-e2e 119/0,
db-bench 117 checks 0 failures, linkcheck clean.

40d56c4664 perf(wal): checkpoint measured — 2.16x space, 1.78x boot, 2.7ms pause — T5
databasev2 3, task 5.

Full campaign, same workload twice, differing only in whether
checkpointing may fire:

- WAL used 1962358 -> 907094 bytes (2.16x reclaimed)
- boot 114 -> 64 ms (1.78x), median of 3
- stop-the-world pause max 2651us against a STATED 50ms budget

The budget is asserted, not assumed: 50ms is a stall a serving process
can absorb without a client seeing a timeout, and the leg fails if it is
exceeded. The pause is O(live rows) — at ~181 MB/s a 1GB live set implies
~5.5s, which is the number an incremental design must be bought against.
The spec deliberately did not buy it in advance.

FOUND BY MEASURING: the dump was 8x slower than it needed to be. It
flushed through wo_wal_commit, which fdatasyncs, so it paid one barrier
per 256 records. Intermediate durability there is worthless — the temp is
not authoritative until the rename and is fsynced once immediately before
it. With a single final barrier:

- ~107KB live: 23948us -> 2903us
- ~500KB live: 36361us -> 7526us
- ~1.98MB live: 107649us -> 13212us
- marginal ~22 MB/s -> ~181 MB/s, sync-bound to bandwidth-bound

Correctness re-proven after that change: wovm-test 36 suites 0 fail,
test_wal 760 pass including the 40-round kill-during-compaction battery.

Two measurement defects of my own, fixed rather than reported:

- boot measured through the driver's run() helper reported 251ms both
  with and without checkpointing — run() samples RSS on a 250ms poll, so
  every timing floors at the quantum. Measured directly instead, median
  of 3
- ckpt.reclaim_x was recorded as lower-is-better by the default detector,
  which would have PASSED "reclaimed nothing" and FAILED an improvement:
  the feature's central claim, gated backwards. Now higher-is-better,
  gated at 15% while the wall-clock metrics stay wide — waiving them all
  would have left the leg ungated, part A's task 4 mistake

- sample gains a `boot` mode that does nothing, so boot time is boot time
- walstats now reports compactions, pause max/total and compacted bytes
- baseline refreshed from the FULL campaign (N=20000, crash_reps=3), and
  a fresh full run passes 116 checks 0 failures
- gate bites: reclaim_x doctored to 1.0 -> FAIL on exactly that metric

One flake seen and checked, not papered over: durable.sN.query.ops_sec
failed once at 53% below baseline. It is a read-only metric that touches
no WAL code, and a re-run passed 116/0 with the box at load 1.85.

0b618ace19 docs+fix(db): T6 closeout — and reads no longer wait for the barrier
databasev2 4 part A, task 6. Mostly documentation, plus one real fix the
full battery caught.

THE FIX. The drain held EVERY DB reply until the barrier — including
reads, which stage nothing and have no stake in durability. That parked
readers behind an fsync for no reason: durable.sN.mixread.p99 rose from
~1043us to 4057us. Only a statement that actually staged a record now has
its reply held. Caught by the gate, not by review.

THE TRADE, recorded rather than smoothed over. What remains is inherent: a
barrier blocks the owner shard LONGER (more records per fsync) though LESS
OFTEN, so anything queued behind one waits. Three full runs of the same
build gave durable.sN.mixread.p99 of 1043 / 2318 / 4147us and wmix.p99 of
8758 / 20000us — a 2-4x spread with the box near idle. So part A buys ~3x
write throughput at the cost of a longer, noisier tail on the owner shard,
and that is the strongest argument for part B (submit and keep serving).

- durable.sN.*.p99us tolerance widened to 100% WITH the reason in the
  code: a 2-4x-variable tail gated at 50% gates the disk, not the engine.
  The floor is the real guard and is not slack — mixread's (4172us) came
  within 25us of tripping on the worst run. Baseline refreshed; a fresh
  full run then passed 106 checks 0 failures

EXIT STATUS MOVED 3 -> 74 (sysexits EX_IOERR). 3 and 4 are already used by
SAMPLES for their own meanings — db-bench's own `verify` exits 3 on a
checksum mismatch, and it is the gate that exercises durability, so a
durability abort exiting 3 would have been indistinguishable from the
mismatch it should help diagnose. The low range belongs to programs.

Docs:

- story: progress, the payoff measured two ways, the cost side, criteria
  split met/outstanding, and a "part B — its premise changed" section:
  it was justified by "close the 66x gap", but that gap is two problems
  and only the concurrent one was a batching problem
- board: standup entry in the six-question shape; both databasev2 4 rows
  rewritten. They had said "close the 66x gap" — recorded as MIS-STATED
  rather than quietly renumbered
- 00-wob-format.md and 04-db-binding.md: the normative failure contract
  ("a failed WAL commit traps WO_T_IO after un-applying the row") was
  false; corrected, along with the tick-scoped group commit that never
  happened
- database/src/CODE-LOGIC.md: where the barrier runs and why there, why
  replies are held, why the inline path is asymmetric, the one failure
  rule, and how to measure it
- db-bench README: the wmix mode, the env knobs, and the tmpfs warning

Battery: wovm-test 36 suites 0 fail, woc-test, oop-e2e 119/0,
db-bench 106/0, linkcheck clean.

5f9598af6a feat(db-bench): prove batches form — the write-concurrent leg, T4
databasev2 4 part A, task 4. Scope extended with developer approval: the
plan authorised touching the sample only for observability, but no
existing leg has enough concurrent durable writes to exercise group
commit at all, so the payoff was unevaluable either way.

The finding that forced it:

- `mix` writes on one op in ten with C=4 (all_mode calls mix_mode(n/10,
  4); Mixer writes on i % 10 == 9), so the quick run performs 20 writes
  total. Measured mean batch 1.01 over 3112 barriers, peak 3
- that is a property of the WORKLOAD, not the mechanism: peak 3 of a
  possible 4 shows batches form whenever writes actually coincide

- `wmix N C` added: every op a durable write, C at once. Updates rather
  than inserts, so it is comparable to mixwrite and the row count stays
  flat. Histogram kind 2 — a replayed store still holds the seeding run's
  kind-0/1 Hist rows and merging those would report someone else's
  latencies
- WO_WAL_STATS=1 prints one line at exit: batches, records, peak_batch,
  peak_staged. Opt-in, because it would otherwise pollute every durable
  program's output. Counters live in wo_wal; no builtin, the numbers are
  diagnostic and not part of the language

Measured, and it scales with concurrency exactly as designed:

- C = 4 / 16 / 64 -> mean batch 1.13 / 1.76 / 5.35, peak 3 / 10 / 39
- the gate's own legs: durable.s1 5412 records over 5412 barriers (mean
  1.0, peak 1 — the inline path, one barrier per statement BY DESIGN),
  durable.sN 7757 over 2296 (mean 3.38, peak 28) at 2x the throughput
- peak staged 1372 B settles the no-cap decision with a number: the batch
  is tiny, so the upstream mailbox bound is sufficient

- mean_batch/peak_batch are higher-is-better (the default detector would
  have called bigger batches worse)
- only the batch SHAPE metrics are waived to 100%; wmix throughput and
  latency keep real tolerances (15% s1, 50% sN) — a blanket waiver would
  have left the entire new leg ungated
- the live assertion `mean > 1.0` on the sN leg is what catches inertness
- gate bites: sN wmix ops_sec -60% -> FAIL on exactly that metric, 1 of 86

Verified: db-bench-quick 89 checks 0 failures; baseline refreshed (86
metrics).

62d29d6a77 docs(24): T10 closeout — stories done, board, graph, ledger, CODE-LOGIC
Iteration 24 closes, absorbing 31 and 34. No code in this commit.

- stories 24, 31, 34 -> `status: done`, each with a landing banner. 24's
  records the gate numbers and BOTH disclosed deviations: monitor takes
  three arguments (the caller may be `main`, which has no mailbox) and a
  v1 `call` reply is a typed scalar (which is what let the agreement be
  checked at compile time, WO-E226). 31's notes it landed INSIDE 24 and
  that a fifth mechanism it never anticipated came out of proving the
  gate — the drain guarantee (40). 34's names the gap it did NOT close:
  still no RNG, so CSRF/sessions stay blocked
- board: in-progress row cleared, marker doc deleted (convention), the
  standup entry in the six-question shape, chain note — next link is
  databasev2 4 (io_uring group-commit, chain 5)
- graph: PUBSUB2 (pub/sub + WebSockets, "rejected until here") -> done
- porch ledger: a WebSocket/pub-sub row added; the cancellation row now
  says what it actually waits on rather than repeating "the arc"; the
  README's "no WebSockets/SSE" limitation was stale — WebSockets are
  supported, SSE and chunked encoding are not
- CODE-LOGIC: runtime/src gains the actor-lifecycle section (call, death,
  the cap counter's sender/home-thread split, the monitor walk, the timer
  list), the drain guarantee, and the digest section; docs/examples/chat
  gains its own — actor topology, WHY two actors per connection, fd
  ownership, and the shutdown choreography

Battery after the doc edits: wovm-test 36 suites 0 fail, woc-test exit 0,
oop-e2e 119/0, chat 11/0, web-app 46/0, linkcheck clean.

4af1e8bcdd fix(chat gate): every leg starts its own server — and it found a real bug
Gate defects, all measured:

- fd check was core-count dependent: `fds_before + 8` read LAZY per-shard
  init as a leak. Shards init on first fiber, each taking one io_uring +
  one eventfd, capped at nproc; on 20 cores the first wave legitimately
  adds 18. Measured 26 -> 44 after 20 clients, still 44 after 40 more.
  Replaced with the invariant the check is for: a second wave must not
  raise the count. Core-count independent, and catches a slow leak that
  any fixed slack would hide
- a failed leg ORPHANED its server: drain inherited $SRV from the soak
  leg, so its python died on int("") and the soak server was never
  killed — its listener then broke the next run's soak on the same port.
  drain now starts its own server; cleanup kills every server a run
  started, matched on the run's unique temp dir
- two legs the plan requires were missing: WO_SHARDS=1 (the single-shard
  control) and WO_MAILBOX=8 (drop-slow-member backpressure). Both added,
  both green. The mailbox leg shrinks the slow client's SO_RCVBUF so it
  needs no sleeps
- chat adopted the porch naming (use porch/..., [deps] key) after the
  rename landed on master

Decoupling the legs exposed a REAL drain bug, traced and documented in
docs/2026-08-27-chat-drain-finding.md, NOT fixed here:

- on a FRESH server the SIGTERM drain is flaky: 5 of 16 runs left a
  client at EOF with no close frame and no diagnostic
- traced: main -> Registry -> Room -> Writer. Registry runs (diag
  confirms), the Room NEVER processes its shutdown message, so the
  Writer's close branch never runs. Clients that do get a frame are
  saved by their own Reader seeing env.stopping()
- ruled out: the spin budget (a 1s wall-clock deadline still failed 2 of
  12 — reverted, it fixed nothing and cost 1s per shutdown),
  dummy_writer() spawning during shutdown, and write failure
- the fix is an engine guarantee — a send issued before the stop flag is
  delivered — which belongs to the actor lifecycle, not a spin count

5b1a8c96a1 feat(db-bench): replay baseline — boot cost tracks history, not data
Closes the last gap in databasev2 1; gives databasev2 3 its "before".

- `boot` mode: does NOTHING. WO_DATA replay runs before main, so a mode
  with no work measures replay plus a fixed startup
- `replayseed N M`: N inserts + M updates — same live rows, longer log
- `replay` leg: empty-store startup floor measured and SUBTRACTED, then
  two shapes timed, median of 3 boots each
- premise check: updates must actually append WAL records, else the two
  shapes are one measurement and the penalty means nothing
- WAL bytes = non-zero prefix, never file size (fallocate'd to 1 MiB)
- per-record cost stored in NANOseconds: as us it rounded 5.5 and 5.3 to
  6 and 5, too coarse for the number a checkpoint exists to improve
- 148 checks, 0 failures; gate bites on a doctored ns_per_record

Measured — same 20 000 live rows, different history:

- 20 000 records:  980 035 B WAL, 110 ms replay, 5.5 us/record
- 40 000 records: 1 960 035 B WAL, 211 ms replay, 5.3 us/record
- 1.9x boot cost for an IDENTICAL dataset; per-record cost flat, so
  replay is linear in records not rows
- extrapolated: 10M records ~55 s of boot, 100M ~9 min

- databasev2 3 correction: it planned to use "22's aged-store replay
  numbers", which never existed — 22 proved restart correctness, never
  timed it
- databasev2 3 hazard recorded: compaction rewrites the log and moves
  every record, so it invalidates every `resident: keys` offset — an
  arbitrary byte in a rewritten file, not stale-but-readable
- databasev2 1 -> status: done

a873cf7331 feat(db-bench): random-read-over-cap leg — the 273x collapse
- `randread N R` in the sample: fill N rows, read R across the WHOLE range
- Weyl order `i*2654435761 mod n` — no RNG in the language, none needed;
  both legs read the SAME key order so residency is the only variable
- `randread` driver leg: control (256 MiB, does not bind) vs over-cap
  (6 MiB + swap), sizes kept modest — quick resolves it in ~5s
- gates the RATIO, not the absolutes: over-cap reads/sec belongs to the
  box's swap device, the factor between two runs belongs to the engine
- reads must all resolve (hits == R) or the leg fails; a collapse measured
  over unresolved reads is noise
- 133 checks, 0 failures; gate bites on a doctored collapse_x

Measured — this closes the gap the swap leg left:

- resident 1 851 166 reads/sec, p50 0us p99 1us
- over-cap    6 771 reads/sec, p50 128us p99 487us
- 273x throughput, ~480x p99, all 20 000 reads resolving in both
- so the two access patterns sit ~270x apart under identical pressure:
  append-mostly insert ~1%, random read 273x
- departure is a STEP not a curve (1us -> 487us, nothing between), which
  is why p99_departure_decile finds no knee — there is none

- caveat recorded, NOT inherited: this is demand-paged anonymous memory
  through swap (4 KiB/fault, no readahead). `resident: keys` preads via
  the page cache — should be better, but databasev2 2 task 7 must measure
  its own read path. New criterion added there

0c9b2c45d8 feat(db-bench): measure the RAM ceiling — databasev2 1
- `Wide` text-heavy reference shape beside Int-only `Item`
- `growth N int|text`: per-decile RSS read from own /proc/self/status
- `growth-verify`: survivor of a crash must be a contiguous intact prefix
- four footprint legs under a rootless cgroup v2 cap, swap on/off
- `ceiling` leg: die at the cap, then replay must come back intact
- footprint read as median-of-marginals; doublings a separate metric
- 121 checks, 0 failures; footprint gated ±10%, kill-timing ±100%

Measured, and it inverted two of the iteration's own predictions:

- footprint 96.5-100 B/row Int vs 320.6-324 B/row text = 3.3x, NOT the
  "order of magnitude" three docs asserted
- table storage has NO checked ceiling: SIGKILL signal 9, not a catchable
  WO_T_OOM. overcommit lets malloc succeed; kernel kills on page touch
- swap is NOT latency collapse: 900k rows 148s capped-with-swap vs 150s
  uncapped. Append-mostly never re-touches cold pages
- ack-after-fsync survives an OOM kill: ~40k rows, no holes, no corruption
- iteration 2's budget dependency is REMOVED not satisfied — there is no
  "swap onset" to derive a fraction from

- fix: subprocess returncode -9 was labelled a "checked refusal"; 137 is
  the shell spelling of the same signal

746dc2b42b docs(databasev2): third track — the database beyond RAM, with per-table storage modes
- docs/stories/databasev2/, numbered from 1. Six PENDING database iterations
  moved from the language track and renumbered, keeping the old id in
  `was_language_iteration:` so a search for "iteration 32" still finds it:
  32 -> 3 WAL checkpoint, 23 -> 4 io_uring commit, 33 -> 7 single-file store,
  27 -> 8 query grammar, 20 -> 9 cross-program, 21 -> 10 keypair auth.
  Done work (9, 9b, 22) stays as v1 history; language 18 left whole
- the problem, read off the engine not guessed: rows are malloc'd slabs with
  addresses stable forever, NO eviction/spill/paging anywhere in database/src,
  the WAL never checkpoints so boot replays all history, and durability is one
  process-global WO_DATA so no table can say it matters more than another.
  An allocation failure IS a clean catchable WO_T_OOM — but swap thrash
  arrives first and carries no error signal at all, which is the real hazard
- four new iterations:
  1 measure the ceiling FIRST (curve not cliff; the three exits; kill -9 at
    exhaustion) — every later default should follow from a number
  2 `@table(mode: ram | durable | cold)` — the grammar ask. Small surface
    (Ast.table_cfg gains a key, the parser already rejects unknown args), big
    semantics: `durable` defaults so nothing changes silently, and the
    compiler refuses a durable row holding a `ref` into a ram table
  5 bounded tables + refuse/evict/back-pressure, shedding BEFORE the OS acts
  6 cold tiering — mostly forks, incl. whether the language surfaces the
    fault cost and whether @unique on cold is refused outright. A paged
    B-tree stays rejected: if tiering needs one, reject tiering
- 39 links repointed, link TEXT renumbered to track-local ids; arc gains one
  pointer row replacing the six moved; board + board-views cover three tracks
- linkcheck 0 broken / 0 anchors; no code blocks in any story

01df75245f docs(porch): give the framework its own story track, iterations 1-8
- docs/stories/porch/ — a TRACK folder, not a status folder: status still
  lives only in frontmatter. Adds `track: porch` so a query over
  docs/stories/ can tell a porch 3 from a language 3
- 00-story.md carries the sequence, the dependency graph, and a table of
  what the track explicitly does NOT own (binding -> 29, cache -> 18,
  proxy -> 38, metrics -> 30, TLS/templates -> doctrine)
- eight iterations, each with phases, per-phase tasks, Given/When/Then
  criteria, out-of-scope and the forks a spec must settle:
  1 store-backed middleware (limiter + idempotency — needs nothing new,
    first on purpose so the store pattern is proven cheaply)
  2 randomness + cookies (phase A is language-track: a CSPRNG builtin;
    `Resp.headers` being a map cannot emit two Set-Cookie lines)
  3 sessions   4 CSRF   5 routing/response ergonomics (independent)
  6 streaming core (the seam 7 and 8 wait on; chunked-request refusal
    must survive)   7 SSE + compression   8 static + lifecycle hooks
- language iteration 39 -> status: hold, retitled superseded, with a row
  mapping each of its goals to the porch iteration that took it. Kept, not
  deleted: the Fiber study cites it and its randomness argument is what
  this track is built on
- board gains a porch section; board-views gains porch and both-track
  Dataview queries; porch README and the Fiber study §7 point at the track
- no code blocks in any story (plans carry concept and actions in words);
  linkcheck 0 broken / 0 anchors

ffd791d05b refactor(porch): name the web framework porch, fix the wo.toml identifier claim
- docs/examples/writeonce-serve -> docs/examples/porch (git mv, history kept);
  `[deps]` key and import are now `porch` / `porch/http` / `porch/router`
- name history preserved on the library README, not rewritten into dated
  records: writeonce-framework -> writeonce-serve (08-25) -> porch (08-26).
  Stories, specs, plans and the audit reports keep the older name by the
  repo's own convention; only live docs and every path link were rewritten
- left alone deliberately: `internal/serve.wo`, `pub fn serve`, `serve_conn`,
  `app.serve(...)` — those are functions, not the module name
- web-app/wo.toml comment corrected: it claimed hyphens are not identifier
  characters and named a key this file never used. lexer.ml's `is_ident_cont`
  DOES accept `-` (an internal dash is part of the identifier, which is why
  binary minus needs spaces), so a hyphenated key would be legal too
- site now teaches the name: package card, the two-deps chapter and the
  handlers-are-classes chapter say `porch`; site-accept asserted the old
  /packages/serve route and caught the rename, as a gate should
- gates: web-app 46/0, site 21/0, deps-accept 8/0, oop-e2e 116/0,
  linkcheck 0 broken / 0 anchors; porch typechecks entry-less as kind=library

c0b0dbb846 docs: audit all markdown against the code, fix findings, flatten status folders
- README: shipped concurrency/HTTP/WebSockets sat in the roadmap as "not yet
  available"; "no package manager" contradicted [deps]; the deps example
  would not have compiled (the key IS the module name)
- runtime/README: leads with wovm, wo-rt.c demoted to a historical section;
  dropped 2 nonexistent recipes, crates/rt, @gc refcounting, 13 suites -> 18
- employee + log-watcher READMEs claimed "does not compile"; both are gates
- error catalog: +10 emitted codes incl WO-E250, the only diagnostic the
  shipped query surface raises; recorded why the sweep rotted
- language-surface: group-by parses, then the typechecker refuses it
- 00-code-review + 00-link-audit re-run; history kept, not rewritten
- 48 dead Rust-era exploration links de-linked rather than re-pointed (their
  prose names the retired plan by number); successor map -> discarded.md
- 08-project-structure: compiler/plan/ never existed; corpus has 9 dirs, 5 empty
- releasing.md: dropped a --draft step the workflow never had
- new docs/00-doc-audit.md: findings + disposition, incl one row where the
  audit was wrong and the doc it accused was right
- status folders removed: 34 stories flat, status only in frontmatter; 252
  links recomputed from resolved paths; board/board-views/structure retaught
- story 24 -> in-progress, since frontmatter is now the only truth
- new iteration 38: fs mutation verbs + net.connect, the two capability
  families no iteration owned
- new iteration 39: gofiber/fiber v3.5.0 parity study. The ledger called
  CSRF/sessions unblocked by iteration 34's HMAC, but the runtime has no
  source of randomness at all
- linkcheck skips .dev/.superpowers: 0 broken paths, 0 bad anchors

b3f8ed9985 feat(site): source links to the repo, deployment layout documented
- "View source" and the nav GitHub link pointed at the user profile
  (github.com/shoneyj); both now point at github.com/shoneyJ/writeonce
- README: what actually has to reach the host — the self-contained
  binary plus dist/ (served by /dl) and data/ (WO_DATA) — and the four
  environment variables, with SITE_HOST left UNSET behind a proxy so
  the process binds loopback
- says plainly that dist/ must hold the PUBLISHED release assets: the
  build is not byte-reproducible, so a local tarball would not match
  the published .sha256 and the mirror would disagree with GitHub

Prepared and verified locally: docs/examples/site/dist/ holds the real
v0.1.0 assets (digest matches the release) and target/site serves them
byte-identically. Both directories are gitignored.

8f3824409b fix(site): glibc floor is 2.35, not 2.38 — read off the release
The published v0.1.0 binaries need less than the page claimed:
woc imports up to GLIBC_2.35, wovm up to GLIBC_2.34. The page said
2.38, which was measured on a dev workstation (glibc 2.39) before CI
existed — and understating support turns working platforms away.

- supported systems: glibc 2.35+, covering Ubuntu 22.04+, Debian 12+,
  Fedora 36+
- RHEL 9 (2.34) runs wovm but not woc: build elsewhere, copy the
  self-contained binary
- say plainly that the floor is set by the machine that BUILT the
  release, which is why CI pins ubuntu-22.04
- site-accept follows the new string

This is the pinned-runner decision paying off: 2.38 -> 2.35.

ef37b8ffa2 feat(serve+view): file serving, downloads, supported systems; rename
- rename the two libraries: writeonce-framework -> writeonce-serve
  (`use serve`), wo-html -> writeonce-view (`use view`). Names say the
  ROLE now; every sample, script, gate and live doc follows
- stories/specs/plans keep the old names: they are dated records, and
  both library READMEs carry a "renamed 2026-08-25" note
- serve/http/files.wo: StaticFiles { dir, max_bytes } — traversal
  refused not normalised, extension content types, attachment
  disposition for archives. Lifted out of the shop, which had said in
  a comment that it belonged in the framework
- shop drops its private copy and mounts the framework's
- site: /dl/*path over $WO_DIST (default ./dist), 16 MiB ceiling
- /install gains supported systems — Linux x86-64, glibc >= 2.38,
  not musl — read off `file` and the binaries' GLIBC_ symbol
  versions, not off a wish list; plus GitHub release as primary,
  /dl as mirror, and the sha256 verify step
- site-accept: 17 -> 21 checks (supported systems, gzip download with
  a binary-safe probe, checksum, /dl traversal 404)

Verified on 192.168.0.165: the real 960,820-byte tarball downloads
as application/gzip and its sha256 matches the published digest.

Gates: oop-accept MET, site 21/0, web-app 46/0, fibers 10/0,
db-actor 8/0; shop rebuilt and its /assets served by the framework.

3afdafa5c4 feat(site): logo, favicon, install guide, package catalogue
- layout/logo.wo: the mark as inline SVG — dark tile, two-stroke "W"
  (white then accent blue). One source: nav brand + /favicon.svg
- favicon/controller.wo: GET /favicon.svg, image/svg+xml, day cache
- install/: GET /install — toolchain tarball, PATH, verify, first
  project, build/run, adding a dep. Copy from the real install README
- packages/: GET /packages + /packages/:name — catalogue with the
  [deps] line, what each library gives you, and a usage snippet.
  Index cards are child components (multi Component)
- wo-html: page_head(title, head, body) and a `head` slot on Layout —
  a favicon link or meta tag had nowhere else to go; page() passes ""
- header: Install/Tutorial/Packages/GitHub, brand shows the mark
- main.wo: SITE_HOST picks the interface (loopback default), bound
  address printed at startup
- site-accept: 11 -> 17 checks (install, packages x2, 404, favicon,
  inline logo)

Verified on 192.168.0.165:8080 — every route, favicon bytes, and the
mark rasterised at 256px and 32px.

Gates: oop-accept MET, site 17/0, web-app 46/0, fibers 10/0,

23550e7021 feat(lang+wo-html): raw text literals, component layer, MVC samples
- lexer: backtick raw text literal — content verbatim, no escape
  processing, common source margin removed at lex time; `${ }` raw and
  `{{ }}` auto-escaping holes
- `{{ e }}` desugars to `esc(${e})` in parser.ml — a Call on the `esc`
  in scope, so types/owner/emit/.wob/VM are untouched
- WO-E004 unterminated raw literal; WO-E005 newline inside "..." —
  closes a hole where a missing quote silently ate the rest of the file
- wo-html: `Component` interface, `render_all`, `Layout`, README
- framework: `ok_html` joins ok_text/ok_json in http/types.wo
- site + shop restructured to one-feature-one-module MVC (view +
  controller per directory, model at the root, bootstrap-only main)
- removed the filler `pad: Int` convention — verified unnecessary for
  plain classes, interface dispatch, containers and actors
- corrected recorded claims: gap #1 blocks neither the build nor the
  layout; a class crosses module lines, only a free fn is scoped
- docs/guides/language-surface.md — the full grammar inventory
- story 37 landed and moved to done/

- discovered + recorded gap #3: no multi-line expressions or literals
  (leading/trailing .. and paren grouping all reject at NEWLINE) —
  exactly the tax story 37's raw literal deletes
- 37-target comment blocks dropped (bodies now self-explanatory; the

- separate view.html files dropped; every render() now carries its
  '-- 37 target:' literal above the hand-lowered body — the pair is
  the DX referendum in one file
- story 37 re-pointed: raw multi-line literal + {{ }} auto-escaped
  typed holes + {!! !!} raw slots; structural control stays if/for;
  w:if/w:for and .html files demoted to later; forks revised

  Angular file map + run + DX referendum notes
- buy flow proven by hand: stock check/decrement, 409s, traversal
  404, css typed, WAL-durable; builds on the UNPATCHED toolchain
- two language gaps recorded, not fixed (per directive): pub+@table
  cannot combine (controllers forced into root module); @view
  projection classes absent
- story 37 REDIRECTED per Vue-SFC review: view.html compiled by woc
  ({{}} auto-escaped, w:if/w:for, typed against view class, no

735fd270db feat: chat sample + gate (T8/T9, IN PROGRESS) + stop-drain semantics
- docs/examples/chat: registry (call consumer) / room / reader+writer
  actor pair per connection over ws_accept + wsframe; presence,
  broadcast, cross-room isolation, mailbox-full = drop-from-room;
  reader tail sends hardened (a full writer no longer orphans the fd)
- RUNTIME SEMANTICS CHANGE (the drain): SIGTERM no longer kills parked
  fibers from outside — the plane WAKES them and each wait RESOLVES
  (deadline'd waits answer their timeout result, sleeps return early,
  plain waits answer WO_SYS_STOPPED and unwind THAT fiber alone; main's
  STOPPED still ends the program). Workers keep adopting their inboxes
  after stop until eng_shutdown. This is what lets a program drain:
  chat's close frames now reach clients (byte-verified 0x88), then
  main returns and the reap runs
- also: SIGPIPE ignored process-wide (EPIPE trap instead of death);
  two-phase engine teardown (real drops while arenas+routing live,
  settle passes for routed frees) — fixes the registry-map leak and
  the drain UAF ASan found
- gate scripts/chat-accept.sh + just chat: handshake independently
  verified, functional matrix on BOTH backends, 1k-hot-room soak
  (1000/1000 in ~35ms), drain close-frames, SIGTERM exit 0, ASan leg
  clean. OPEN: soak-fds check (18 fds settle slower than the window)

9661c08696 feat: TE rejection + listen backlog 1024 + the 1k soak gate
- parse.wo: ANY Transfer-Encoding header is 400-and-close (RFC 9112
  §6.1) — silently treating chunked as body-less was the smuggling
  door the dup-CL fix left open
- net.listen/listen_unix backlog 64 -> 1024: the soak's connect bursts
  overflowed the kernel accept queue and BLACK-HOLED clients (three-way
  handshake done, server never sees the conn — 35-70 stuck per run,
  fully reproduced then gone at 1024; kernel clamps via somaxconn)
- web-app gate grows to 46 checks: TE-reject; the 1k soak — 500 real
  conns all served + 500 idle conns all evicted, server fds home
  (45 -> 45), RSS 24MB, healthy after
- battery green (site restart + fibers-TSan legs flaked under parallel
  battery load, both clean serially — the standing flake pair)

a32550d968 feat: iteration 35 — net seams + the serving slice (fiber-per-connection)
- runtime ids 91-95: net.read_dl/accept_dl/write_dl (per-call deadline,
  nil/false = the EXPECTED timeout; ms<=0 = old behavior bit for bit),
  net.listen_unix (unlink-before-bind, O_NONBLOCK on the listener —
  probe-found: accept4's flag covers accepted sockets only), net.peer
- plane: one-op-per-park stays law — deadlines ride one per-shard
  TIMEOUT tick (sentinel user_data) + post-CQE expiry sweep +
  POLL_REMOVE tombstone; epoll's deadline scan grew the fd-park case;
  fibers POOL instead of freeing mid-run (stale-CQE UAF); plain parks
  zero park_deadline (no stale sleep deadlines)
- probe: all five seams verified on BOTH WO_IO backends (timeout
  timing exact, peer round-trip, unix rebind)
- framework: parse_request grows first_ms/read_ms; serve_conn — the
  keep-alive loop with deadlines where parked idle conns are LEGAL
  (close-when-idle RETIRED); App.handle_conn exposes it; plain serve()
  unchanged for simple apps
- web-app: app-owned accept_dl loop + ConnWorker actor per connection
  (each builds its own App; cross-shard placement rides the DB actor);
  WA_IDLE_MS knob; gate grows to 41 checks — two slow requests served
  in PARALLEL, stalled client evicted at the idle deadline, slow-loris
  torn at the read deadline (400)
- docs: story 35 -> done with banner; SQE/CQE design spec LANDED (was
  the review doc); ledger rows (timeouts/unix/keep-alive/peer), graph
  (NETSEAM cleared, KEEPAL done), builtin-surface rows, runtime
  CODE-LOGIC section, board entry

- After seam: interface After + Aw + use_after; dispatch funnels every
  response (handler/short-circuit/404/405) through the after chain;
  the WS 101 sentinel skips it (never serialized)
- http/secure.wo: SecurityHeaders (nosniff/DENY/referrer; HSTS stays
  at the TLS proxy), Cors (preflight 204 before + origin stamp after,
  one class both halves), HostAllow (421), client_ip (XFF parsing —
  peer VERIFY stays story 35)
- http/nego.wo: accepts() (exact, type/*, */*; q stripped not ranked),
  etag_for (quoted base64 sha256), with_etag (If-None-Match -> 304)
- router: *rest wildcard (last segment, empty rest matches), Group
  (prefix + routes + group middleware) + Gmw prefix-scoped entries,
  App.mount; new App fields carry defaults so standing ctor literals
  keep compiling
- Req grows ctx bag; parse rejects duplicate Content-Length (400,
  RFC 9112 §6.3)
- web-app exercises all of it; gate grows 26 -> 38 checks (wildcards,
  group+ctx, etag+304, 406/200 negotiation, sec headers, 421,
  preflight+origin stamp, dup-CL 400)
- ledger rows flipped; dep graph section 3 grown (slice-2 done nodes,
  crypto gate cleared, cookie/CSRF/session/webhook/JWT now ready)

- docs/examples/wo-html: library dep — esc(), element builders,
  Tailwind-style utility sheet as one static string, page() shell;
  self-contained responses, no CDN/JS/build step
- docs/examples/site: the language tutorial served by the language —
  9 seeded chapters in a @table (hello/values+bitwise/containers/
  classes/optionals+traps/tables/actors/deps/serving), server-rendered
  via wo-html, seed-if-empty so WAL restarts keep admin edits
- routes: / index, /ch/:slug (styled 404), /health, POST /admin/ch/
  :slug (bearer handler-side — mechanism framework's, policy app's;
  form-encoded title/body update by assignment, 302 back)
- chapter code samples use the lexer's \$ escape to show ${...}
  literally; .. never straddles newlines (accumulator style)
- gate: scripts/site-accept.sh + just site — TWO file:// dep remotes,
  11 checks incl. authed-edit-survives-restart; /health polling, no

  token list, 24-char key, version 13); ws_accept_key pure

64a4700190 docs: reconcile story 34 + gates with merged master
- story 34: premise fixed — iteration 36 landed bitwise/hex, digests
  and HMAC now expressible in pure .wo; C-builtin vs pure-.wo is the
  story's brainstorm call, not an impossibility
- dependency graph: crypto gate names story 34; net-seam gate names
  story 35; radix gate corrected — 22 benched the DB, router scan
  still unmeasured, perf-targets entry first
- framework README ledger: timeouts/unix/peer rows point at story 35;
  ETag row at story 34; path-matching row repointed off iteration 22

dc3e5b7e5b Merge branch 'db-bench' (iteration 22 — durability/throughput baseline)
- brings time.ticks builtin (id 84), bench sample + campaign driver
  (scripts/db-bench.py), just db-bench/db-bench-quick recipes, first
  baseline recorded, story 22 to done/, postgres study cards
- conflicts resolved: board in-progress table (iteration 36 +
  framework rows kept, db-bench row now "22 landed"; dangling order
  anchor repointed); story 36 moved back to in-progress/ (dir-rename
  inference dragged it to done/ — 36 still awaits the manual pass)

0f84d9f1ed docs: post-merge truth-up — stale arc/bitwise refs
- framework README: three rows still said "until fibers/shards" /
  "fibers (11)" — now "arc landed 2026-08-21, parked until own slice";
  ledger date 2026-08-22
- dependency graph: crypto-fork gate note updated — bitwise + hex
  landed with iteration 36, digests expressible in pure .wo; story
  34's brainstorm still owns the pure-.wo vs C-builtin call

4ec01c4c43 Merge branch 'concurrency-arc-stage3' (iteration 8 complete)
- brings arc stage 3: transparent DB actor (T7) + closeout (T8),
  db-actor sample + gate, board/story reorg (stories/00-status.md)
- conflicts resolved: runtime CODE-LOGIC (kept iteration 36 bitwise
  section AND stage-3 DB-actor section), board in-progress table
  (kept iteration 36 + framework rows AND db-bench row, links fixed
  for the moved board path)
- full battery fresh-built 11/11: woc-build wovm-build woc-test
  wovm-test oop-e2e deps-accept web-app log-watcher employee fibers
  db-actor (first run hit a stale pre-merge wovm — gates require
  built binaries and never rebuild; builds now run first)

ed6bfeea3d feat: iteration 36 task 5 — operators sample, docs closeout
- docs/examples/operators: manual-test workload (ok/FAIL lines per
  expression; trap mode proves WO_T_SHIFT); NO test fixtures by
  developer directive — acceptance is the manual pass
- 00-wob-format.md: v6 section (opcodes 42-46, T_SHIFT, header v6)
- CODE-LOGIC.md both sides: precedence-into-existing-rungs, Lua not,
  rewind-and-reparse compound assigns, trap-not-mask, 63-bit hex limit
- story 36 refine -> in-progress with landing blockquote; board updated
- gates: woc-test 543/0, wovm-test ASan, oop-accept ALL MET,
  deps-accept 8/0, web-app 26/0

881b90e9c7 feat: O(1) read path — index probe wired end to end
- engine: wo_idx_probe answers single-column equality from the index
  hash buckets (idx_hash_key1 reproduces idx_hash bit for bit; verify
  compares exactly as the slab walk did, so results identical);
  composite indexes keep the walk; both executors wired (local + DB
  actor RPC)
- compiler: probe_key_of_where lowers "var.col == key" on an indexed
  column to DB_PROBE; all where guards still run (guard stays the
  final arbiter); keys = ident/int-literal only; Float/Bytes excluded
  (engine raw-eq narrower than VM float-eq)
- measured: reads 1.3k -> 1.3M ops/s, p50 600us -> 1us (~x850);
  query x830; mixread 1.3k -> 89k s1, 21 -> ~1.9k sN
- gate policy moved into the driver (tolerance_for: refresh-proof);
  latency floors max(4x,100us); quick mode skips poll-bound mix
  floors; both tolerance classes proven to bite
- proof: test_table wo_idx_probe suite (RED first), corpus
  query-index-probe 105/0, full battery green, TSan clean, two
  campaigns pass the refreshed baseline

3a30b4ac3b feat(db-bench): first baseline — the measurement contract (T5)
- bench/baseline.json: 74 metrics from the first full campaign;
  tolerances tuned by a two-run repeatability check (mix* 50%,
  read/query 35%, rest 15% — rationale in _config)
- gate bites: --check mode; doctored copy fails, both real runs 74/0
- headline: durable seed 4.5k/s vs ram 297k/s (23's case); reads
  O(table) at ~1.5k/s; mixread 1280 vs 21 ops/s single-vs-multi
  (the arc's price); msgrate 13.4M vs 2.45M (mutex-inbox number)
- arc delta recorded in story 8; findings in sample README

7cd56c9426 feat(db-bench): mix + msgrate — concurrent modes (T3)
- Mixer actors: 90/10 read/write, per-actor histograms merged through
  the store itself (Hist rows) — exact aggregate percentiles
- msgrate: one-way flood at a worker-placed sink; measured 15.3M
  msgs/s same-heap vs 2.06M cross-shard — the mutex-inbox number
- finding: point lookups are O(table) (probe walks all slabs), so
  read-heavy mix is quadratic in store size — all-mode calibrated to
  N/10 mix ops; the number 22 exists to publish
- TSan clean both shard counts (setarch -R, fibers-gate pattern)

c35e7219c8 feat(db-bench): sample — serial modes, histogram stats (T2)
- seed/read/query/write/wal/verify/verify-acked + all (one-process
  campaign: RAM store dies with the process)
- per-op time.ticks, 1us-bucket histogram percentiles (reservoir
  deviation: no element-write/sort in language; better tail anyway)
- Meta expectation rows ride the same WAL verify checks
- finding: hand-built multi<TableClass> SEGVs on drop (elems classed
  OWNED, refs are scalar ids) — worked around, recorded
- finding: reads ~1.6k/s p50 595us vs 287k/s inserts — probe walks
  all slabs; the number 22 exists to surface

49cc734ae8 docs: arc closeout (T8) — stage 3 landed, chain advances to 22
- stories 08+11 to done/ with banners (11: fs-park re-scoped out of
  v1, disclosed); guarantee-contract table re-homed in story 08;
  marker doc deleted per convention
- board standup: implemented/findings/learned/unblocked/next/.dev-ref
  for the landing; In-progress = nothing active, next = 22 spec
- arc plan status ARC COMPLETE, T7/T8 boxes checked with deviations;
  graph nodes done; framework ledger rows note arc-unblocked;
  18's pub/sub rejection expired note
- CODE-LOGIC: runtime DB-actor + ring-params section, database slot
  surface; oop-vm/03 contract gains the reply-park protocol
- 22 precursor recorded: remote insert ~8us/op RAM-only
- full battery + db-actor gate green after doc edits; links verified

07c1f7b257 feat: arc stage 3 T7 — transparent DB actor (WO_T_DB hole closed)
- worker DB builtins marshal to shard 0: requester-side slot encode
  (VM heaps never read cross-shard), owner executes serialized in
  adopt, reply unparks via new WO_PARK_INBOX park + envelope 3/4
- engine gains thread-agnostic slot entry points (insert_slots,
  update_field_slot, val_encode/clone, wo_db_exec_req); traps and
  messages byte-identical to the local path
- main.c: engine + replay boot BEFORE shards spawn; workers assert
  rt.db/rt.wal NULL; busy shard adopts inbox once per slice
- latent stage-1 bug fixed: shared io_uring params static raced by
  lazy worker init lost park wakes (~1/20 hangs); params per-vm,
  short submit now fails loud
- new sample docs/examples/db-actor + just db-actor gate 8/0 (multi
  x3, uring/epoll forced, single byte-exact, WAL replay pair);
  ASan+TSan 6/6; full battery green

d24c705860 feat: iterations 19 + 17 — Float/Bytes scalars (.wob v5), library kind + internal/
- Float full stack: literals (fraction/exponent; `0..10` still a range), f64
  opcodes 34-41, @table column, WAL bit-exact replay, json fractions in and
  shortest-round-trip out. IEEE-quiet — FDIV never traps where DIV does.
- Bytes: a wo_str with its own class id, so alloc/free/copy are shared but no
  Text builtin accepts one; len/at/slice/eq/concat, base64 both ways, json
  boundary as base64; TEXT_COPY preserves the kind.
- No implicit Int/Float mixing (WO-E201 in the typechecker, not the emitter,
  which picks the opcode from one side and would misread the other).
- One IEEE deviation: float_cmp total order (NaN last, -0.0 == +0.0) for
  indexes and order-by, keys canonicalized to match. `?Float` nil is a
  reserved quiet NaN — the zero word is +0.0, WO_NIL_SCALAR's bits are -2.0.
- Renderer prefers fixed over exponential in 1e-6..1e21: pure shortest makes
  a price of 900.0 read `9e+02`. One renderer for interp/json/float_to_text.
- Fixed en route: lexer double-counted the leading digit; is_scalar_shaped
  took Float/Bytes as Int-shaped; Bytes ownership needed a shared heap-scalar
  predicate or temps never dropped; order-by bit-compared negatives backwards.
- Iteration 17: `kind = "library"` (absent = program; bad value = WO-E109),
  entry-less check mode retiring the `--emit` workaround, Go's `internal/` as
  WO-E108 at the consumer's `use`. Driver-only; VM/.wob/GC untouched.
- Framework reorg: internal/{parse,serve}.wo; http/form.wo split out to keep
  media_type/form_values public (parse.wo had grown public surface).
- Docs: link audit (97 -> 88 broken, conflict markers resolved, 2 duplicate
  stories removed), 00-code-review verified 26/27, iterations re-sequenced.
- Also carries the pre-staged pub(read)/using/#if work from the index.
- Gates: corpus 103/0, test_wal 156/0, web-app 26/0, oop-accept ALL MET.

5521d21a84 docs: pending iterations renumbered by dependency + priority
- developer directive: pending iteration IDs now ARE the priority order;
  LANDED iterations keep historical numbers (code comments and commit
  history cite them — records, not a queue); 8/11 (the half-landed
  arc), 17 (parked, artifacts on a branch), 18 (next, artifacts named)
  also frozen
- mapping (recorded in 00-story): 19<-20 Float+Bytes, 20<-9c attach,
  21<-9d keypair, 22<-9e benchmarks, 23<-9f io_uring WAL, 24<-19 chat,
  25<-10 services, 26<-12 blue-green, 27<-9g query corpus,
  28<-14 skillhost, 29<-13 metaprogramming
- 11 story files renamed; every doc reference re-numbered (word-boundary
  sweep for the lettered 9x ids, phrase-level for numeric ones); the
  iterations table rewritten with Seq == priority and "(was N)" notes;
  story-scoped link check: zero broken
- merge-recovery folded in: the partial master merge had dropped the
  chat story, the fibers exploration note, the arc spec+plan, the
  framework-v2 plan, and the iteration-17 spec+plan — all restored from
  their branches and renumbered consistently

7a614420f4 feat(examples): fibers — the hybrid scheduler demonstrated + gate
- docs/examples/fibers: part 1 is TIMING-FREE and byte-exact — main
  sends three messages then burns reductions; each budget expiry hands
  the Counter actor exactly one delivery (cooperative mechanics,
  preemptive fairness, BEAM's shape); part 2 parks a Sleeper actor
  mid-receive on the I/O plane while main keeps ticking — the wake
  lands between ticks, proving a sleeping fiber blocks nobody
- the missing "sleeper: up" on the first run was main-return-reap
  working as specced (main ended before the deadline); the demo's
  window widened so the wake is observable
- scripts/fibers-accept.sh + `just fibers` (8 checks): build, part-1
  exact + part-2 ordering invariants on auto/uring/epoll backends,
  and an ASan-runtime rebuild+run
- README points at the doctrine writeup (exploration/fibers)
