- 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);
dated specs/plans left as records. linkcheck 0 broken / 0 anchors

- 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

- io_uring is a must; epoll approach discarded (developer decision)
- plan superseded by shard-fiber-arc plan of record; banner + row in
plan/discarded.md; file kept as idea reference
- three live pointers repointed: status language-track row 8,
principles enforced-by, story 08 note

The spec's §8 migration table, applied:
- 00-principles.md P3: "@gc is a per-class opt-in, reference-counted" ->
GC-ness is inferred; incremental per-shard mark-sweep in budgeted slices;
still no global pause by construction.
- OOP spec: decision-table GC row -> inferred (hybrid rule named); §3 rule 5
-> traced classes alias freely, which classes is inferred; §4 memory model
-> the RC + Bacon-Rajan paragraph replaced by tracing (snapshot roots,
Yuasa barrier, born-black, budgeted slices); header rc comment -> union'd
sweep link; mixing rule restated for tracing.
- 00-wob-format.md: header says version 4; opcodes 27-28 -> reserved (loader
rejects); the owned-temporary rule's @gc exclusion restated for tracing.
- 08-builtin-surface.md: the push RC_INC special case and the set(m,k,v)
retention gap DELETED — neither exists without RC; the corpus cycle is
collected by tracing.
- story 07b: status -> LANDED 2026-08-18 (with the historical note kept);
board: 7b row ✅ (supersedes iteration 2's RC memory model), pending row
removed.
- gc-cycle README: Phase 3 flipped to landed (the ring runs, is reclaimed,
ASan-clean; the ?Node RC_DEC-on-nil trap no longer exists); the barrier
prose corrected to the as-built design (snapshot-at-beginning + deletion
barrier + born-black, not per-slice root re-reads).
- plan 2026-08-18: all checkboxes ticked + a completion banner recording the
four deviations from the plan as written.
(Error catalog was already amended with the keyword-removal commit: WO-E104
added, WO-W201 retired.)
