Task 5b of docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-26-table-residency.md, whose Task 5
is now split 5a-5d (plan updated in this commit).
- the offset twin of wo_row_read (table.c:721): same out-gate contract —
every value handed back is a FRESH VM allocation — but resolved from a file
position instead of the id hash
- fits entirely in wal.c because everything it needs was already public:
scan_record and dec_val are local, and wo_val_decode_vm / wo_db_val_free
are exported at table.h:183-187. Two decode stages, since the record and
the VM speak different dialects: dec_val -> engine slots -> VM copies, with
the engine slots freed as scratch on every path
- ZERO storage change. Nothing calls it yet; that is the point of separating
it from 5c, so the read path can be proven before the slabs are touched
- refuses rather than guessing, each case distinguishable: no intact record
at the offset, a malformed header, a decode failure, trailing bytes, and a
REMOVE tombstone. That last one matters most — handing a tombstone back as
a row would read a deleted row as live
Tested by deep field comparison, not by "it parsed": 24 rows with a nil Text
every third row, each read back BY OFFSET and compared field by field,
including the string bytes. Plus all three refusal paths — tombstone, a
mid-record offset (the silent-wrong-row failure this guards), and past the
intact prefix.
The free-on-every-path claim is VERIFIED, not assumed: removing the free
produced 3 LeakSanitizer reports; restoring it returns to 0. Worth doing
because "ASan is clean" only means something if the harness would have
complained.
PLAN SPLIT: Task 5's storage half was written as if it were plumbing. Measured
instead: wo_row_ptr returns a db_row* into a slab with 11 call sites, table.c
has 37 slab references, db.c:105-181 scans slabs directly, enc_val serialises
FROM the slab, and no operation exists that drops a payload while keeping
index entries. Note this is the OPPOSITE half from the earlier retraction —
the record FORMAT needed nothing, the record STORAGE genuinely is deep. 5c
(id->offset map + drop-payload-keep-index) and 5d (rewiring the call sites,
scans, @unique/FK across the boundary) get their own write-ups.
Gates: test_wal 3654/0 (was 3428), all 18 runtime suites 0 fail under
ASan+UBSan, oop-e2e 119/0, residency 8/0, employee 8/0, db-actor 8/0.

Task 3 of docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-26-table-residency.md.
- NO LAYOUT CHANGE. The plan said to add descriptor fields; the descriptor
already had a `flags` u32 with only bit0 used, so both properties ride
spare bits (WO_CLASSF_VOLATILE 0x02, WO_CLASSF_RESIDENT_KEYS 0x04). A v7
class record is byte-identical in shape to a v6 one, which is a much
smaller and safer change than the plan assumed
- both spelled as the NON-default, so a zero flags word means exactly what
every pre-v7 image meant: durable, every row resident. A non-@table class
has both clear by construction
- the loader refuses the meaningless pair (bit1+bit2) independently of woc,
on the standing principle that what the loader accepts the interpreter
trusts. Verified by FORGING the flags word in an otherwise valid image,
since woc will not emit one: flags=6 gives "durable:false with
resident:keys", flags=8 still gives "unknown flags"
- WOB_VERSION 6 -> 7. Kept because an OLDER runtime reading a v7 image would
otherwise treat a volatile table as durable and quietly disagree with its
own source. loader.c's check is exact-match, so a v6 image is refused
rather than read with the bits clear — verified by patching a v7 header
back down to 6
GAP FOUND AND CLOSED: woc ACCEPTED `durable: false, resident: keys`. Task 1's
steps covered duplicates and bad values but never the combination, and the
plan had only put that refusal in the loader. The spec wants both, so the
compiler now refuses it too (WO-E102, checked after the argument list is
complete since it is a property of the pair). A compile error is the one a
developer can act on.
VERSION DRIFT: the constant lives in FOUR places, not one. wob.h,
emit.ml:157, disasm.ml:186, and compiler/test/runner.ml:2405 — the last is a
deliberately independent reimplementation of the loader battery, and it
caught the drift as 14 failures rather than silently passing. Its flags mask
and the combination refusal are now in sync too, which is the point of it
being independent rather than shared.
Gates: woc-test 557/0, 18 runtime suites 0 fail, 18 ISO-flavour suites 0
fail, cli_smoke OK, oop-e2e 118/0, employee 8/0, db-actor 8/0, site 21/0.
Zero goldens moved (git diff over golden/ empty).

Task 2 of docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-26-table-residency.md.
- the check lives in `check_field_types`, which already runs over the raw AST
(so the diagnostic lands at the field's own position, once per declaration)
in Pass 2 with `syms` fully built
- only the durable -> volatile direction is refused. volatile -> durable is
legal: the referencing row is the one that disappears, so nothing is left
holding a stale id
- the message names both classes and both escapes, because "this is wrong" is
less useful than "make Session durable, or declare Order volatile too"
- sees through a `?` wrapper, so `?ref S` is caught too
- code picked as 24 by sweeping `<stage>_prefix ^ "NN"` — 01-23, 25, 26 and
50 were taken, so 24 was a genuine hole. Grepping the literal WO-E224
would have found nothing, which is how ten codes once went missing
- catalogued in the same commit, and the completeness sweep re-run: 53
emitted, 54 catalogued (the extra is retired WO-W201), none missing
PLAN CORRECTION: the plan's second step said to apply the same check to
`backlink` fields. Dropped — a backlink is "NOT a stored column" (ast.ml:72),
so after a restart it resolves to an EMPTY COLLECTION, which is a legal state
indistinguishable from "nothing references me". There is no id to dangle.
Implementing it would have refused correct programs; a spurious diagnostic is
worse than a missing one. A run fixture now pins that the backlink shape stays
legal, so the check cannot silently grow over-broad later.
Gates: woc-test 557/0, oop-e2e 118/0 (was 116 — one compile-fail and one run
fixture added), employee 8/0, db-actor 8/0; employee, db-bench, db-actor,
porch, log-watcher and gc-cycle all still typecheck.

Task 1 of docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-26-table-residency.md.
- ast.ml: `table_cfg` gains `durable : bool` (default true) and
`resident : residency` (ResAll | ResKeys, default ResAll) — both defaulting
to the pre-existing behaviour, which is what lets every @table written
before this compile byte-identically
- parser.ml: `durable:` takes the existing KwTrue/KwFalse tokens; `resident:`
takes the bare identifiers `all`/`keys`. Given-twice tracked by local seen
flags rather than option fields, so "absent" and "explicitly the default"
stay distinguishable without the AST carrying an option nobody reads
- five new WO-E102 causes, all catalogued in the same commit: durable twice,
resident twice, an unknown resident value, `resident: index` (the
pre-review spelling, with a message naming its replacement), and a retired
design word (mode/store/ram/cold/tiered/paged/mmap/buffer) which gets a
message stating the two real keys instead of a generic "unknown argument"
- dump.ml prints each property ONLY when it differs from its default.
Printing unconditionally would have moved every pre-existing golden, which
this iteration is not allowed to do
- new golden compiler/test/golden/ast/table-residency.wo covers all four
shapes, including a table declaring `resident: all` explicitly and
correctly dumping nothing for it
- verified, not assumed: `git diff --stat` over compiler/test/golden/ is
EMPTY after a WOC_BLESS run, so all 30 pre-existing goldens are untouched.
woc-test 557/0 (was 556), oop-e2e 116/0, employee 8/0; employee, db-bench,
db-actor and porch all still typecheck
- docs: language-surface's @table row now matches what the parser accepts
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- found during the pre-execution review of the plan, before any code
- the claim was wrong in both spec and plan: table.c's db_val_encode builds
the IN-MEMORY slot; the FILE record is a separate encoding in wal.c and has
been flat since iteration 9. enc_val inlines every kind recursively with no
pointer anywhere; dec_val reads it back; a record is
`WO_WAL_INSERT | class_id | id | <value per field>` in the
len|crc|payload|mark frame; scan_record already preads and CRC-verifies a
record at an arbitrary offset
- so the row encoding needs NO change, and Task 5 (a "self-contained,
offset-based" rewrite billed as the iteration's substantive engineering) is
DELETED, not reduced. 8 tasks -> 7, and the highest-risk task is gone
- the real difficulty is where the spec never looked: wo_wal_append_insert
stages into a 1 MiB buffer, so a record's final offset is unknown until
flush. Threading an accurate offset back through a buffered writer —
correct across partial flush, failed commit and torn tail — is now Task 5's
first two steps, with a unit test that straddles a buffer boundary and a
case asserting no offset is published for a record that never reached disk
- dependent claims corrected: the mmap alternative's premise, the read-path
bullet (now names scan_record/dec_val), and the self-review coverage table,
which records the retraction rather than quietly dropping the row
- root cause worth noting: reading one layer and inferring another. Second
time this iteration — the first was assuming WO_HEAP_MB bounded table
storage when it bounds the VM arena

- 8 tasks, 71 steps, from the 2026-08-26 table-residency spec
- deliberately contains NO code: discarded.md records "raw code in plan
documents" as rejected, and all six preceding plans have zero fences.
Stated in the header so it does not read as an omission. Every step
instead names the exact file and line region plus the required behaviour
- task order is by testable deliverable, not by layer:
1 grammar + defaults (no existing golden may move)
2 the cross-table check — a durable ref into a volatile table is refused
3 .wob v7: descriptor carries both properties, loader refuses the
meaningless combination so it never reaches the engine
4 durable:false skips the WAL at the three existing choke points in db.c;
replay refuses on mismatch rather than resurrecting rows
5 self-contained offset-based records — the one real rewrite, since
table.c returns a malloc'd address as the slot word today
6 resident:keys read path: id->offset map, pread, sequential scan;
@unique and FK-restrict across the boundary are the correctness core
7 the two runtime refusals — durable with no WO_DATA (silent data loss
today), and the resident-footprint budget
8 measure, baseline, crash battery, docs, closeout
- self-review table maps every spec section to a task. Two gaps found and
closed: the escape hatch for an intentionally ephemeral run (a refusal
with no way forward is worse than the loss it replaces), and persisting
the offset map in databasev2 3's snapshot
- linkcheck 0 broken / 0 anchors

- `resident: all | keys` replaces `resident: all | index`. Two reasons beyond
taste: it kills the collision with the `index:` argument
(`@table(index: [customer], resident: index)` read badly), and it puts both
values on ONE axis — each now answers "what row data stays resident",
where `all`/`index` mixed a quantity with a structure name
- accurate as well as clearer: what stays resident is the id->offset map, the
secondary indexes and the unique shadows — all key structures; row payloads
are exactly what leaves. `resident: none` was rejected as overclaiming,
since the indexes very much are resident
- checked for collisions: neither `all` nor `keys` is a keyword or a builtin
(`key_at`/`val_at` exist, bare `keys` does not)
- the spec's wart note became a recorded decision; the rejected spelling is
kept quoted so the rationale still reads
- fixes a bug I introduced in the 2026-08-26 track move: all six moved
iterations carried a banner reading "Part of [Story — the database beyond
RAM]" whose link pointed at the LANGUAGE arc — correct target, lying text,
the exact failure mode the link audit warned about. Banners now point at
the databasev2 story, and the original "Part of" line says plainly which
track the iteration was authored in before the move

- driving case: a 120 GB order table on a 32 GB host. Not a tuning problem;
no eviction policy fixes it. Developer accepted reconsidering the principle
- principle 7 rewritten: durability half UNCHANGED and unconditional
(WAL-logged, fsync before ack, CRC-dropped torn tail); residency half
demoted from law to per-table declaration. Old wording quoted in place so
the amendment is legible, with the reason: a doctrine a real workload
cannot satisfy gets ignored, and the failure it produced was an OOM kill
- spec: docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-26-table-residency-design.md
One log-structured engine — the WAL already holds every row, so keep an
in-RAM id->offset map and pread rows back. No second engine, no user-space
row cache (the kernel page cache is the hot copy, which is already this
repo's stated position and why it avoids O_DIRECT)
- arithmetic that makes it work: 240M rows x 16 B of index = ~3.8 GB
resident in 32 GB. Indexes stay resident, rows do not. Buys ~2 orders of
magnitude, not infinity — stated plainly in the spec
- grammar: two optional keys, `durable: true|false` and `resident: all|index`,
both defaulting to today's behaviour, so all 28 existing @table
declarations compile untouched and no golden is reblessed
- rejected, with reasons recorded: mmap (rows are pointer-bearing —
table.c returns (uintptr_t)t as the slot word), buffer pool (the Rust-era
phase-12 design that died with that track), paged B-tree (stays rejected),
a three-valued enum, automatic spill, disk-backed-by-default
- self-review caught the budget defaulting to "none" while promising the ERP
developer a diagnostic instead of the OOM killer — contradiction fixed:
the budget defaults to a fraction of host memory, and its value comes from
databasev2 1's swap-onset measurement
- live docs that contradicted the amendment updated (subagent doctrine,
its guide, discarded.md's two rows, iteration 04's read claim, 07, 38);

- 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

- 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

`[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

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.

- manual runs skip the tag guard (there is no tag on a dispatch, so
GITHUB_REF_NAME is the branch and the guard always failed) and skip
publishing
- a dispatch now builds, verifies the digest, smoke-tests the
extracted toolchain and reports the glibc floor, then stops

- public repos: standard runners free, unlimited minutes; only larger
(4-core+) runners bill there and this workflow does not use one
- private: included minutes per plan, then per-minute; Linux x1 vs
Windows x2 / macOS x10; each job rounds up to the next minute
- sized from a measurement: cold mkdist.sh is 3.4s on 20 cores, so
under a minute on a 2-core runner — setup-ocaml dominates, ~3-10
min per release, and it only runs on a tag

- self-hosted works technically: outbound HTTPS only, no inbound
ports, honours HTTPS_PROXY/NO_PROXY — a box behind a proxy is fine
- but it defeats the pinned-runner decision: the build host sets the
glibc floor, so a workstation runner (2.39 here) puts it back to
2.38+ and drops Ubuntu 22.04 / Debian 12 / RHEL 9
- and a workstation-built release is unattested
- records what self-hosting accepts: jobs run as the starting user,
with that user's ~/.ssh, credentials and network reach — including
hosts named in ~/.ssh/config; worst on public repos, where a
stranger's PR runs code on the runner
- if unavoidable: dedicated VM, unprivileged user, --ephemeral,
segmented network, treat .credentials as a secret

- states plainly what does NOT trigger it: builds run on a
GitHub-hosted runner, not locally, and only on a `v*` tag push —
pushing master releases nothing
- 14 numbered steps: get the workflow onto GitHub, enable Actions,
allow ocaml/setup-ocaml, the 403/workflow-permissions fallback,
a --draft rehearsal on a throwaway tag, cleanup, then the real tag
- calls out that the rehearsal tag is EXPECTED to fail the tag/VERSION
guard, and how to rehearse the full job instead
- step 8/9: read the runner's glibc floor and reconcile
install/view.wo with it — the runner, not the dev machine, decides
who can run the release
- lists the three likely first-run failures

- .github/workflows/release.yml: builds, verifies and publishes on a
`v*` tag. `permissions: contents: write` on the injected
GITHUB_TOKEN replaces `gh auth login`; no PAT, nothing to rotate
- runs-on ubuntu-22.04 DELIBERATELY: the build host's glibc caps which
symbol versions the binaries import, and that cap is the floor every
user needs. 22.04 (2.35) includes Ubuntu 22.04 / Debian 12 / RHEL 9;
24.04 (2.39) would exclude them
- guards that fail instead of publishing: tag vs VERSION, produced
asset name vs the filename /install links, sha256, and a smoke test
that builds a hello project with the binaries INSIDE the tarball
- reports the shipped glibc floor so the claim on /install is checkable
from a build log
- releasing.md: pipeline route up front, manual route kept; GH_TOKEN
recipe for non-GitHub CI
Not run — this repo has no CI history and Actions cannot execute
locally. Every guard's shell was dry-run here against the real dist.

- 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.

- 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,

- 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/

- render() bodies: one HTML line per 'h = h ..' statement, single-
quoted attributes, ${} holes, esc() on data — el() chains gone
- 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
README states the delta); rebuilt + full buy-flow re-smoked (178.0
total, stock 12->10, 409, traversal 404)

- 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
- rebuild verified on untouched toolchain
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- view.html per feature + layout app/header/footer.html: the markup-
first form woc will compile ({{}} auto-escaped, w:if/w:for,
{!! !!} slots, w:component sections); inert today, verified not to
disturb the build
- README: pair is the DX referendum — .html is the target feel,
view.wo is today's cost; doctrine line reworded (templates compile
or don't exist)

- 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)
+ full battery after the semantics change — NOT yet run
- committed for manual testing at the user's request
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- monitor(watched, observer, msg): registration lives on the watched
actor's home thread (kind-7 envelope cross-shard); actor_die walks
the list; already-dead fires NOW; the notice msg moves; a full
observer's notice drops with a stderr line (no fiber to trap)
- time.after(ms, addr, msg): per-shard timer list riding the deadline
machinery (uring tick min + epoll timeout both include timers;
fired from the same sweep); ms <= 0 delivers now; NO cancel — the
generation-counter idiom is pinned by run/timer-generation
- runtime_notify: one runtime-sourced delivery path (notices, timers) —
reserve-or-drop, cross-shard via kind-0 envelopes
- compiler: monitor typed as a bespoke free fn (notice typed against
the OBSERVER's mailbox — the three-argument deviation, disclosed);
time.after as a stdlib row whose msg arg is EXEMPT from the module-
call fresh-arg drop (it moves — the double-own bug the timer fixture
caught); owner move slots for both
- corpus: run/monitor-death (trap-death + already-dead notices),
run/timer-delivery (armed + immediate), run/timer-generation
- teardown drops undelivered notices and unfired timers; battery 13/13

- 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)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- 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
- battery 13/13 fresh-built

- progress ledger with commit ids + the two en-route compiler/runtime
fixes; pending list carries each task's remaining shape and the
disclosed deviations (scalar replies v1, three-argument monitor)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- runtime: mailbox slots grow caller metadata (wo_msg), call parks on
WO_PARK_INBOX (the DB-RPC protocol) and the resume consumes a SCALAR
reply; FIBER_DONE ships the receive's return value home (same-shard
unpark or kind-6 envelope); kind-5 carries cross-shard calls
- actor death is real now: a receive trapping uncaught marks the actor
dead, error-unparks the in-flight caller AND every queued caller,
drops queued payloads + state, releases cap slots; send-to-dead
drops silently, call-to-dead traps — a call never hangs. Fixes the
pre-existing leak/dangle in TRAPF's fiber-death path (cur_msg leaked,
a->active dangled, the mailbox rotted)
- compiler: reply typing through actor-M erasure — every receive(M)
program-wide must agree on one return type and it must be a copyable
scalar (v1); WO-E226 names disagreeing classes / void receives /
non-scalar replies; call's message moves exactly like send's (owner)
- corpus: run/call-echo (park + ordered replies), run/call-dead-trap
(mid-call + to-dead, both catchable), compile-fail/call-void-receive,
compile-fail/call-reply-disagree; cross-shard call proof rides the
chat gate next

- 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
boot-race sleep
- README: run + nginx sketch for writeonce.de; CODE-LOGIC beside code
- full battery 13/13 (site gate included)

- Req grows internal conn field (net.Conn, filled by parse) — handlers
touch it only through ws_accept
- ws_upgrade_valid: RFC 6455 §4.2.1 (GET, Upgrade token, Connection
token list, 24-char key, version 13); ws_accept_key pure
(base64(sha1(key+GUID)) — the runtime vector already pins the RFC
worked example); ws_accept writes the 101 and returns the fd;
hijacked() = the status-101 sentinel
- serve.wo: 101 skips serialize AND close — the loop forgets the fd
and returns to accept; plain HTTP byte-identical (web-app 26/26)
- codec + end-to-end proof land with the chat sample's gate; battery
12/12 (fibers TSan leg flaked empty under load, 10/10 on rerun;
web-app restart leg has a pre-existing 0.5s boot race, noted)

- one iteration by directive 2026-08-23: call() parks with typed reply
(envelope kinds 5/6 over the DB-RPC park), mailbox cap 1024 +
WO_T_ACTOR fail-fast, monitor(addr, msg) one-way, time.after
one-shot no-cancel
- story 34 resolved: C builtins sha1/sha256/hmac_sha256 over Bytes,
RFC vectors gated
- WS pure .wo: handler-owned upgrade (ws_accept + hijack sentinel),
frame codec over Bytes via 36's bitwise, two actors per connection
(sole-reader + sole-writer)
- chat sample: registry + room actors, python raw-RFC6455 gate —
cross-shard functional, 1k soak, SIGTERM drain, battery unchanged
- status PROPOSED — awaiting review before the plan
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- 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
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- 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)

ledger date 2026-08-22
- dependency graph: crypto-fork gate note updated — bitwise + hex

34's brainstorm still owns the pure-.wo vs C-builtin call
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- owns the framework ledger's three seam rows; deadlines compose with

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- SHA-1 (WS-handshake hard req, RFC 6455 worked example as acceptance),
SHA-256, HMAC-SHA256 over Bytes; hand-rolled C per doctrine, FIPS/RFC
vector fixtures; four forks recorded (namespace, shape, source, file)

- 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
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- constraints-and-grammar: gram.y PK/FK productions, pg_constraint,
RI trigger semantics; writeonce direction — @key as unique alias
(id stays THE key), ref actions (@on_delete), backlink-implies-index
(improves on postgres' not-auto-created FK index)
- indexing-and-point-lookup: AM roster + algorithms (Lehman-Yao,
linear hashing), TID = row address; writeonce gap — probe walks
slabs while idx_bucket exists; O(1) slice direction, non-goals
- card index updated; Rust-era plan-10/11/12 links unlinked (rot)

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

- 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)

- 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

- worker DB builtins marshal to shard 0: requester-side slot encode

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

- 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.

- 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

- brainstorm settled four forks: Float FULL STACK in one iteration
(literal, IEEE f64 VM ops via u64 bitcast, @table column + WAL slot,
json fidelity — json.c's own comment names the hole: fractions are
malformed because "the language has no [float]"); IEEE-754 QUIET
semantics (division never traps, NaN flows; Int keeps DIV0; no
implicit mixing — float(i)/trunc(f) bridges); BYTES ships alongside
(binary carrier: multipart files, WS frames for 19, crypto digests;
Text goes back to meaning text); iteration 20 + spec before code
(.wob/WAL version bump earns a written spec)
- the rest of the missing-type survey recorded with reasons: Result/
Option expressible today (?T + payload unions), tuples covered by
records + doctrine, Decimal stays cents-until-a-workload, Char/
Unicode its own future story, Set/ADTs parked post-12, scalar
newtypes need the rejected `abstract`
- one indexed-storage deviation from raw IEEE spec'd loudly: a Float
index needs a total order — NaN sorts last
- board row, story-table row (seq 26), graph node (9+16 -> 20 -> 19;
crypto gate wants Bytes)

- 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)

- done/ (11): 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 7b, 9, 9b, 15, 16 — landed iterations
(9/9b remainders live in the post-12 drain list, not in the files)
- refine/ (8): 9c, 9d, 9e, 9f, 9g, 11, 13, 14 — everything marked
"no spec yet / brainstorm before planning"
- root keeps: 00-story (index), 05 (partial, plan 8 open), 8/10/12
(specs or plans exist), 17 (parked, spec+plan approved), 18 (next)
- every cross-reference re-pathed and VERIFIED resolving: board, specs,
plans, employee-list README, story table, intra-story links (moved
files' relative links deepened one level; done/7b's 9e pointer now
crosses to refine/)
- pre-existing dead link noted, not touched: refine/11-fibers.md points
at docs/plan/exploration/fibers/00-fibers.md which does not exist
(predates the move)

- 00-story.md iterations table rows reordered into implementation order
with a Seq column; # stays an immutable ID (files never renumber —
every board/spec/plan references by number)
- order: 1-7b, 9, 9b, 15, 16 (landed, landing order) -> 18 NEXT (spec
approved) -> 9c -> 9d -> 9e -> 8 -> 9f -> 11 -> 10 -> 12 -> 9g -> 14
-> 13; 17 parked row at the end, slots anywhere after 16 on directive
- story note + board implementation-order list synced (18 inserted as
item 2 after the parked-17 note; 9g now explicitly before 14; list
renumbered)

- re-analyzed every story/spec/plan markdown for dependency statements
- added: iteration 17's OUTGOING edge (framework internal/ reorg + check
mode, WO-E108/E109 reserved); 1-6 foundation anchor; 9b -> 10 ("service
blocks want query results"); 14's gap fan-out node; post-12 parked
drain cluster with dashed scope-directive edges (13 + drain are
directive-held, not technically blocked)
- new graph 2: the concurrency chain — 8/9f/11 and EVERYTHING they gate:
keep-alive parking retirement, h2c, body/response streaming + commit
point, cancellation, pub/sub+WS, 9c's rejected async-statement
alternative, schedulable idle timeouts, fiber jobs (+18),
cancellation->rollback (+18+cancel)
- graph 3 notes 9d's keypair crypto is its own C impl, neither waits for
nor feeds the crypto-fork gate; storage-integration rows point at
their real owners (future migrations story, 9-series query surface)

- docs/00-dependency-graph.md: three mermaid graphs — story iterations
(hard edges only; 18 is the only spec-approved node with all
prerequisites green), framework v1 ledger items (three recurring
gates: net seams, crypto fork, iterations 8/11; nine slices startable
today in any order), framework v2 internals (cache/flags independent,
transaction{} is the critical path, jobs compose on it)
- maintenance rule: node classes update in the same change as board rows
- board links the graph up top; spec 18 banner -> APPROVED, plan next
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- framework README core checklist expanded into the v1 STATUS LEDGER:
seven categories (transport, routing, request/response, context &
middleware, storage integration, security, crypto), every item
marked done / partial-with-named-gap / candidate / parked-behind-8-11
/ needs-runtime-seam
- verified before labeling: BODY_MAX caps headers AND body (size limits
done); net has no timeout or unix-socket or peer-address surface
(runtime seams); language has NO bitwise operators, so SHA/HMAC/CRC32
must be C runtime builtins or bit ops land first (fork to brainstorm);
radix routing waits for 9e to measure the linear scan first
- crypto hard stop recorded: HS256 unlocks and nothing past it
- memory-rich features relabeled FRAMEWORK V2 = iteration 18 (story +
spec banners + board rows); v1 gaps land as slices per the ledger
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Part A transaction: one wal_commit at block end over the existing
staged batch; reads see own writes (RAM stays authoritative); trap
unwinding out = abort (undo list: insert->remove, update/delete->
pre-image, captured before RAM apply, txn-only cost); try inside
keeps the block alive; WO-E110 lexical nesting, WO_T_DB dynamic;
no new opcodes, no .wob bump (internal builtins + catch-frame-shaped
abort marker); E108/E109 stay reserved for parked 17
- Part B: cache.wo (ttl_ms/cap, lazy time.now-ms expiry, FIFO over LRU
with the tradeoff stated, Text values via json); flags.wo (@table
wf_flags, on as Int 0/1 - Bool columns unproven, read-through map,
set updates table+map); jobs.wo (@table wf_jobs, enqueue composes
with transaction, JobRunner interface, App.jobs(take r, budget),
Dispatcher.idle() called post-accept PRE-PARSE - deterministic for
the SIGKILL durability proof, unlike after-response)
- web-app demo: transactional order+confirm enqueue, GET /jobs count,
POST /flags/:name with a flag-gated header on the product list
- gate: SIGKILL-after-201/restart/drain proof + flags persistence;
corpus carries transaction-commit/abort + WO-E110 + cache-ttl
(stamps injected, no sleeps)
- board row 18 -> spec written, awaiting review

- http/multipart.wo: RFC 7578 whole-body parsing within BODY_MAX —
boundary from the raw content-type (quoted or bare, key
case-insensitive), parts split on --boundary, each part = headers,
blank line, content; filename + per-part content-type kept (lowercased)
- strict malformed-is-nil: no closing --boundary-- marker, a part
without content-disposition, missing blank line, no boundary param,
wrong media type — all nil, the caller's 400
- part_named(parts, name): first matching field's content, caller-owned
- web-app CreateProduct now accepts multipart/form/JSON (curl -F shape)
into the shared insert path
- probe 13/13 + 3x reuse loop (fields, crlf-in-content, quoted boundary,
file part, zero-part close, five malformed shapes) release + ASan
- gate grows 19 -> 21: multipart create 201, missing closing marker 400
- README: multipart row ✅ (all three body hooks done), limits updated;
story 16 + board record the landing
- gates: web-app 21/0, oop-e2e 89/0, deps-accept 8/0, log-watcher 7/0,
employee 8/0, woc-test green
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- media_type(req): content-type lowercased, "; charset=..." stripped,
"" when absent — the content-negotiation hook
- form_values(req): application/x-www-form-urlencoded body -> decoded
pairs through the existing query decoder ('+' as space, %XX); nil on
any other content-type so a JSON body is never misread as a form key
- web-app CreateProduct accepts form OR JSON; shared create_product
insert path; field/number validation answers 400
- probe 7/7 (plus/pct decode, empty value, case + charset param, json
and missing content-type nil, empty body, media_type strip) + ASan
- gate grows 17 -> 19: form create 201 with decoded name, non-numeric
price 400; hit() gains a content-type argument
- README: checklist row form ✅ (multipart stays candidate), limits
paragraph updated; story 16 + board record the landing
- gates: web-app 19/0, oop-e2e 89/0, deps-accept 8/0, log-watcher 7/0,
employee 8/0, woc-test green
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- App.get/post/put/delete_(pattern, take h: Handler) — the take-interface
shape probe-proven release + ASan before landing; retires plan-16
deviation 1; delete_ because delete is the query keyword
- dispatch matches path-first: wrong method on a known path answers 405
with Allow in registration order; unknown path stays 404
- HEAD routed as GET, body suppressed, Content-Length names the body a
GET would carry (serialize gains head_only)
- Logging middleware (request line to stderr) ships in router/
- set_header(mut r, name, value) — the builder escape hatch
- web-app registers through the helpers (dogfood); README documents all
- gate grows 14 -> 16: 405+Allow, HEAD-vs-GET content-length equality
- all gates green: web-app 16/0, woc-test 540/0, oop-e2e 89/0,
deps-accept 8/0, log-watcher 7/0, employee 8/0
- board/story: iteration 17 parked (spec+plan ready on library-internal),
16 carries the v1-polish landing, order list updated
