- 08 landed in discarded/ by mis-drop, swept into prior commit with
two dead links; corrected to stories/.../in-progress/ per intent
- 11 joins it (one arc, active slice)
- board doctrine: active stories bucket named; all links re-verified

- 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- plan superseded by shard-fiber-arc plan of record; banner + row in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

- code-verified ready: arc stages 1+2 merged to master; stage 3
concrete in plan (tasks 7-8); rt.db set on primary only
(main.c), worker_late_init memsets rt — WO_T_DB hole real
- 22/23/24/31 stay in refine/: open forks, no bench harness,
no crypto builtins, chain-blocked
- links fixed both directions; board doctrine names hold/ bucket

- 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

- error catalog: WO-E106 (dependency fetch/shape failures, one code, message
names dep + step) and WO-E107 (dep/local module-name collision) rows.
- README: a Dependencies subsection under the manifest docs — [deps] syntax,
.wo-deps/wo.lock behavior, offline-when-locked, --update-deps, flat-only.
- board: iteration 15 row -> landed (deps-accept 8/0), pending row removed;
story 15 header records the landing; 08-project-structure notes
.wo-deps (gitignored) + wo.lock (committed); plan checkboxes all ticked.
(One self-inflicted casualty during this task, restored from git before
commit: a buggy doc-edit script truncated 08-project-structure.md; the file
was recovered intact and the intended one-liner applied by hand.)

Closes json's two documented fidelity limits (iteration 5 strictness):
- field_class gains WOB_FIELD_BOOL (a plain `Bool` field) and
WOB_FIELD_NIL_BOOL (a `?Bool`: WO_NIL_SCALAR nil + bool encoding) — the
kind byte alone cannot tell a Bool slot from an Int slot, so the metadata
carries it. Emitter writes them (field_class_meta); loader whitelists
them; json.c encodes `true`/`false` (and `null` for a ?Bool nil), decode's
null/omitted-key pre-write covers NIL_BOOL.
- A JSON number with a fraction or exponent is MALFORMED for an Int field:
the checked decode (`json.decode(t) as T`) yields nil for the whole
document instead of silently truncating 3.7 to 3 — the language has no
float, and corrupting data quietly was the one thing a "checked decode"
must never do. Floats stay representable through a raw `json.Value` field.
- corpus: run/json-bool-fidelity pins the round-trip (true/false both ways,
?Bool null both ways, fraction AND exponent rejected).
- Board's two known-gap entries struck; format doc's field_class marker list
extended.
Verified: oop-e2e 87/0; runtime test + test-iso OK; woc-test 540/0;
log-watcher 7/0; employee 8/0.

The verdict table's reject half is enforced: a Haxe habit fails loudly at
its own position with the doctrine reason, instead of a generic syntax
error — or, worst, compiling clean: `return super.f()` used to exit 0 (the
unresolved ident placeholder swallowed it).
- parser.ml: doctrine_reject_reason maps each rejected word to its spec
reason (inheritance quartet -> principle 4; cast; Dynamic/untyped ->
principle 13; macro; extern -> principle 10; operator). Fired at three
chokepoints: `class B extends A` (with skip-to-brace recovery so the body
still parses), an expression head (`super`, `cast 3`, `untyped x`), and a
top-level declaration head (`macro fn`, `extern fn`).
- types.ml: `Dynamic`/`untyped` as a TYPE name keep their WO-E225 site but
carry the doctrine message.
- corpus: compile-fail/{reject-inheritance,reject-cast,reject-dynamic}.
- catalog WO-E105 row; plan 8 Task 8 reject half ticked (#if still open);
board updated.
Verified: woc-test 540/0 + test_diag 14/0; oop-e2e 86/0; log-watcher 7/0;
employee 8/0; legit identifiers (`extended`) untouched.

The hybrid-boundary inversion is closed: a statically provable interface
violation now fails at COMPILE time instead of reaching wovm as an ICALL
that traps WO_T_BOUNDS at runtime.
- types.ml class_satisfies: the same rule emit.ml's `satisfies` builds
vtable rows from (instance method with matching name + parameter count
for every interface method; `static fn` never satisfies) — one rule, two
consumers, so the check and the vtable can never disagree.
- check_iface_boundary fires wherever a confidently class-typed value flows
into an interface-typed slot: call arguments against the callee's declared
parameters (free fns, methods off confident receivers, interface-method
sigs, statics — resolved exactly as confident_typ resolves returns),
annotated `let`s, and `return`s. Silent when underivable.
- The same per-argument pass extends the ?T boundary to CALL ARGUMENTS
(the previous slice covered stores/returns/operands): nil into a
non-nullable parameter is WO-E212, an unnarrowed ?T argument is WO-E211.
- tests/corpus/trap/unsatisfied-interface -> compile-fail/ with
fixture.code WO-E205, per the fixture's own standing instruction; its
header comment rewritten to the wired reality.
- The new arg checks caught a real mistyped signature in the sample:
log-watcher's rpc_error/rpc_result/call_tool declared `id: json.Value`
while every caller legitimately passes nil (JSON-RPC id-absent) — now
`?json.Value`; dispatch/call_tool/cron-row sites moved to the
bind-then-narrow idiom (including an `or`-guard narrowing:
`if spath == nil or spat == nil { return }`).
- Catalog: E205 gains its main-table row; the "owed gap" section is
rewritten as closed. Board known-gap struck through.
Verified: woc-test 540/0 + test_diag 14/0; oop-e2e 83/0 (fixture now
compile-fail, satisfying-class negative probe compiles clean); oop-accept
ALL MET; log-watcher 7/0; employee 8/0; gc-cycle clean.

The type system now keeps its nullability promise: a `?T` value cannot be
used, stored, or dereferenced as a plain `T` without narrowing. The canonical
evidence probe (return b.v where v: ?Int, fn -> Int) that compiled clean for
months now fails with WO-E211.
- WO-E211 (un-narrowed use): arithmetic and </<=/>/>= operands, and/or
operands (?Bool), interpolation segments, for-iterables, and returns whose
declared type is not nullable.
- WO-E212 (boundary): nil or ?T stored into a non-nullable slot — annotated
let, assignment to a confidently-typed local (cenv, never the placeholder
env — a placeholder target must stay silent) or a resolvable class field.
- WO-E213 (deref): field/index access through a possibly-nil base.
- Narrowing (locals only — a field place can be re-assigned between check
and use, so chains bind to a local first): `if x != nil { }` narrows the
branch; a DIVERGING then-branch (`if x == nil { return }`) narrows after
the if; `x != nil and x.n > 3` narrows and/or right operands
(short-circuit); `while x != nil` narrows the body. The narrow is
un-applied when an else-less then-env leaks out un-diverged (the existing
env-leak convention must not leak the narrow).
- No false positives by construction: env/cenv types are declared or
confidently inferred; the placeholder fallbacks are plain scalars, never
?T. The whole golden suite passed untouched (540/0).
- Samples updated to the bind-then-narrow idiom (log-watcher config decode +
supervisor lock/next_fire, gc-cycle ring print) — 22 genuine unnarrowed-nil
sites; employee needed zero changes. All acceptances green.
- Corpus: compile-fail/{nullable-unnarrowed-use,nullable-nil-into-plain,
nullable-deref-unchecked} + run/nullable-narrowing (all four forms) — 83/0.
- Catalog: E211/E212/E213 move from "Reserved, not yet emitted" to the main
table; nullable-types-implementation.md status flipped to ENFORCED
(historical record kept); plan 8 Task 6 ticked (boxed scalar cells
superseded by WO_NIL_SCALAR); board updated.
Verified: woc-test 540/0 + test_diag 14/0; oop-e2e 83/0; oop-accept ALL MET;

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.)

`@gc` is no longer part of the language: a developer never writes or mentions
it. GC-ness is decided entirely by inference (structural cycles + demand
promotion), which the earlier 7b commits made complete and precise.
- parser: `@gc` on a class is now WO-E104 ("GC-ness is inferred; run
`woc --dump-gc`. Remove it."). `is_gc` stays false; the class classifies by
inference. No `.wo` in the repo carries `@gc` anymore.
- types.ml: retired the WO-W201 machinery (suggest_gc_annotation,
has_recursive_structure(_type), has_unique_field, gc_suggestion_code) — it
suggested `@gc`, now obsolete since inference traces exactly those classes.
- runner.ml: deleted the 8 WO-W201 gc-suggestion test blocks; the @gc-exemption
test's `Cache` is made self-referential so inference classifies it gc without
an annotation.
- fixtures: dropped `@gc` from rc.wo (Cache demand-promotes via its escape),
elision.wo (Cache given a self-ref to stay structurally gc for the rc-elision
dump), pricing-demo.wo (PriceCache doesn't escape -> now owned), and the
abandoned-cycle/budget-steps corpus (Node is structurally gc). rc.wo keeps a
placeholder comment line so its line-indexed rc assertions hold. Goldens
re-blessed.
- docs: error catalog gains WO-E104 and marks WO-W201 retired; gc-cycle README
records the keyword removal.
Verified: woc-test 553/0 (was 566 minus the 13 retired WO-W201 checks),
test_diag 14/0, oop-e2e 79/0, employee 8/0, log-watcher 7/0. `git grep '@gc'`
finds only comments — success criterion 1 met.

Master now reflects only the current woc/wovm project. The Rust `wo` runtime
was the prior, abandoned architecture; it is fully independent of the woc/wovm
stack (dune + make, no Cargo dependency), so it lifts out cleanly. Recoverable
via git history.
Removed:
- crates/ (29 files) + Cargo.toml + Cargo.lock — the Rust runtime workspace
- prototypes/ — wo-rt-c (a stale duplicate of runtime/) + wo-db C++ ref
- justfile: the rt-c-demo / rt-c-bench recipes (drove prototypes/wo-rt-c)
- docs/plan/05..16 (11 Rust engineering plans) + docs/plan/done/ (4 Rust
Stage-2 done plans)
- docs/runtime/ (11): the old runtime overview + 7-phase DB design series +
async/fibers/gc/surreal concept essays
- docs/cm.md — legacy scratch note
Kept: compiler/, runtime/ (C VM), database/, the current-track docs
(stories, superpowers, plan/{oop-vm,compiler,exploration}, examples), the
discarded/learnings registers, and the syscall/postgres/assembly/c-runtime
studies. Follow-up commits fix the status board, project-structure doc, and
any dangling links to the removed docs.
Verified: woc + wovm still build; woc/wovm --version green.

Analyzed the full 131-file docs tree (4 parallel classifiers) against the
shipped woc/wovm toolchain. Removed 21 stale docs, kept all intentional
history (Rust-track plans/done, the runtime/database design series cited by
current specs, syscall/postgres/assembly/c-runtime studies, discarded/
learnings). Deleted:
- old-runtime "front door": writeonce-pl.md, runtime/wo-language.md
(pitched the Rust wo runtime -- REST/LiveView/SQL+Cypher -- as the current
language; contradicted the new README)
- v1 design set: 02-recovery, 03-data, 04-ui, 05-datalayer,
06-markdown-render, 07-ssl; runtime/database/05-go-sdk
- future-scope/ai-agents-content-management (unfinished old-runtime CMS)
- the ##ui/.htmlx LiveView frontend track (product decision to abandon):
9 plan/exploration/ui/*, plan/14-mvc-ui-implementation,
superpowers/plans/2026-08-01-ui-htmlx-live; 13d pricing-UI board row
Tree left link-clean: 46 dead links to the removed docs neutralized to plain
text or deleted as pure see-also bullets across 20 kept docs; whole-tree
link-resolving scan reports zero links to any deleted file. Removal recorded
in discarded.md; board Frontend section + project-structure tree updated.

- compiler: `insert Class { ... }` is a typed Ast.Insert in statement
AND expression position, sharing the ctor literal's field grammar;
typechecked with the ctor's omittable rule; result = the row id (Int)
- owner pass: the engine copies at the row API, so an insert BORROWS
its field values -- no transfer, no E304; node is trap-capable and
carries a live-mask drop entry like DbStub did
- emit: builtin 61 window = class-id const + one slot per DECLARED
field in declaration order; omitted defaults emitted, omitted ?scalar
gets WO_NIL_SCALAR, other omitted optionals the zero word; fresh
argument values reaped after (the push/set copy semantics)
- runtime: database/src/db.c executes via the choke-point row API;
rt.db/rt.wal opaque handles on wo_rt; WO_DATA=<dir> = replay
<dir>/shard-0.wal at boot + commit-before-ack per statement (the
builtin's return IS the ack until iteration 8 ticks); failed commit
un-applies the row and traps WO_T_IO; loader validates the class-id
slot (variable window documented in wob.h + format doc)
- the promised diff: trap/pricing-set-price-db-stub is now
run/pricing-set-price-insert printing engine-allocated ids;
durability smoke prints 1,2 then 3,4 across two WO_DATA runs
- old "bare insert is an Ident" unit test rewritten to the new
contract; runner's loader mirror accepts id 61; goldens re-blessed
- gates: oop-accept ALL CRITERIA MET, oop-e2e 71/0, woc-test 566/0,
wovm-test green, log-watcher 7/0

- database/src/wal.{c,h}: framed records len|crc32|payload|mark
("WOL1" written last -- no mark, no record), typed-row payloads
walking the class-table kinds (nested records, containers, nil
encodings), little-endian like the loader
- commit order verbatim from the shipped phase-D pattern: RAM apply,
stage, ONE pwrite + ONE fdatasync for the batch, ack after -- group
commit is everything staged riding one sync
- replay decodes straight into engine-owned values (no VM at boot)
and re-enters rows through the choke-point row API, so Task 4's
indexes will rebuild for free; next_id advances past replayed ids
this shard owns (wo_row_create_raw)
- torn tail = short/CRC-fail/no-mark/zero-len: intact prefix applies,
tear dropped whole, wo_wal_open positions AT the tear so the next
commit overwrites it; CRC-valid-but-undecodable = corruption, loud
- wo_wal_check: offline oracle, no engine needed -- the crash
battery's verifier
- test_wal 90/0 ASan+UBSan incl. five crash-battery rounds (fork,
insert/commit/ack-over-pipe, SIGKILL mid-stream: zero acked-but-
missing, zero acked-but-wrong); all runtime suites green, oop-e2e
71/0; binding doc WAL section + CODE-LOGIC + plan Task 2 checked
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- database/src/table.{c,h}: per-shard per-class slabs (256 rows,
malloc'd, never moved -- row addresses stable for 9b's row views),
occupancy bitmap, LIFO slot reuse, open-addressing id hash with
tombstones (ids never 0, never reused)
- field encoding walks the same .wob class-table kinds the VM walks:
scalars raw (WO_NIL_SCALAR passes through), Texts copied to db_text,
owned objects flattened recursively to db_rec, containers
element-wise; GCREF refused at encode (the GC bulkhead, defensively)
- two one-way copy gates: insert copies VM values in, read allocates
fresh VM values out -- no VM pointer in a slab, no slab pointer in
the VM, proven by mutating originals after insert
- id discipline: per table per shard, S+1 step N; owner = (id-1) % N;
N-parametric, runs at N=1 until iteration 8, tested at N=3
- choke points: wo_row_insert/wo_row_remove carry the INDEX HOOK
sites Task 4 attaches to; nothing else mutates storage
- runtime/Makefile links database/src into every wovm + test binary
- test_table 827/0 ASan+UBSan; oop-e2e 71/0; log-watcher 7/0;
binding doc docs/plan/oop-vm/04-db-binding.md; CODE-LOGIC.md beside
the code; plan Task 1 checked off

- 9b spec gains section 6 "Ownership, borrows, and GC across the
engine boundary": two one-way copy gates (no VM pointer enters a
row, everything a select returns is copied out), so the collector
never traces engine memory and the engine never touches refcounts
- row views are borrows WITHOUT a runtime net: rows share the VM's
field encoding but not its header, so no borrow word backs them --
the compile-time escape rule is load-bearing alone
- cursor stability settled: scans materialize their id list before
the body, row updates through the view stay legal (raise mode
updates an indexed column mid-scan and is the proving fixture),
insert/delete on a table with an open cursor is a new WO-E5xx
- GC-pause interaction recorded: collector runs between statements,
a long scan delays slices -- accepted, documented
- iteration-7b ordering constraint: GC inference must classify before
table-field validation, diagnostic names the inference reason --
noted in 7b story, iteration-9 plan constraints, 9b plan tasks
- stories 09/09b Info sections point at the analysis; 9b plan Tasks
3/5 carry the enforceable checkboxes (ASan boundary assertion)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- docs/examples/employee: Department/Employee @table classes with
@unique, [dept] and [dept, salary] indexes, ref/backlink pair;
modes seed/report/staff/raise/drop per the 9b spec section 6 —
written AHEAD of the features (sample-first, like log-watcher);
README states it does not compile on today's toolchain and links
the plans that compile toward it
- report mode is the GroupBy showcase: group-and-reduce projection
{headcount, avg, min, max} ordered by avg desc, whole-query sum
for payroll; staff proves both navigation directions + index probe;
drop proves delete restrict (trap asserted)
- engine directory decision (user, 2026-08-15): database/ is its own
top-level dir, statically linked into wovm — file structures updated
in the iteration-9 plan and the 9b plan
- gap found by writing the sample: iteration 9's subset lacks a
`delete` statement and restrict needs one — added to 9b plan Task 3
- 9b plan Task 6 notes the sample is pre-authored and authoritative
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- spec settles 9b's three forks: SQL/Cypher layer superseded as the
program surface (design history + wo-db engine-semantics reference);
comprehension syntax desugared at compile time (no function values);
System.Linq = operator vocabulary + edge cases, PostgreSQL = execution
+ integrity vocabulary (both references surveyed 2026-08-15)
- aggregate semantics normative: count/sum total 0 on empty, avg/min/max
are ?T with nil (empty is data, not a fault); nil skipped; sum wraps
like language arithmetic; GroupBy lowers as group-and-reduce
(AggregateBy shape), transition/finalize ABI from nodeAgg
- relations: ref = FK with direct-index-probe check (nil passes,
unchanged-key skips), backlink = secondary-index scan, delete is
restrict-only; nil never joins, nil is a legal group key
- lowering: the compiler is the planner — queries become bytecode loops
over cursor/group builtins, longest-prefix index selection, no plan
tree, no SQL text in the image (disassembly-provable)
- plan: 6 tasks gated by a new docs/examples/employee sample
(Department/Employee, @unique, composite index, ref/backlink,
GroupBy report mode) with its own acceptance script + crash step;
blocked on iteration 9's engine plan
- story 09b + status board updated; 02-wo-language.md carries the
supersession note

- Task 5: net.close on every path out of a serve iteration (400
included) and the listener on stop; measured 4 -> 54 fds over 50
requests before, 4 -> 4 over 200 after. The loop's comment claimed
the iteration-end drop IS the close -- wrong twice (net.Conn is a
scalar, and a drop would not close an fd); it now says what is true
- Task 6: LW_SOAK=<seconds> in the acceptance script -- each mode under
load, resident+descriptor deltas against a WARMED baseline (warm-up
includes load: cold-to-high-water is not growth), 256 KiB / zero
tolerance; LW_ACCEPT_WOVM soaks another build
- the soak caught ~1.6 MiB/min of in-arena leaks ASan cannot see (the
arena is one allocation to LeakSanitizer); an arena size-class
census + pointer trace attributed five bugs:
- jparse_string sized every decoded string at "rest of the input"
and relabeled len after -- blocks filed on free lists their next
allocation never reads (fs.read_all's mis-size, again); copy out
exact, free at the taken size
- `!=` never dropped fresh operands (headers["authorization"] !=
"Bearer ${key}" leaked both sides per request); Ne now reaps as Eq
- an Int interpolation segment is a fresh int_to_text, not a borrow;
is_borrowed_value_t asks the segment's type
- json.encode(Ctor{...}) had no owner -- record + both field copies
leaked per tool call; its bespoke lowering now drops the argument
- a discarded expression statement owns its result: `pop(lines);`
leaked the popped element; reader builtins excluded
- after: arena live bytes flat per request on every handler; release
soak 30 s per mode watch 0 / run 0 / mcp +20 KiB, descriptors flat;

- blocking stdlib calls that PARK (net.accept, socket read/write,
time.sleep, a child wait) no longer restart the syscall when the
stop flag is set on an interruption: a server sitting in accept
ignored SIGTERM and only `kill -9` ended it
- a stop is NOT a trap -- builtin.h's WO_SYS_STOPPED carries no error
record and no catch handler sees it (`try` must not swallow
SIGTERM); the VM unwinds the whole stack through the same drop
machinery an uncaught trap uses, so nothing leaks on the way out
- wo_vm_call gained a third outcome (1 = stopped); the CLI maps it to
the status the program's own `return 0` would have given, and a
regular-file read keeps its plain EINTR retry -- it does not park
- an ASSIGNMENT was not an ownership boundary: `api_key =
j.mcp.apiKey` moved the field pointer into the local, so the local
aliased the record and the first unwind freed the same string twice
(SIGSEGV in class_free). `let` copied a Text place, assignment now
does too -- the same double free was latent on the normal exit path,
hidden by the order the compiler happens to emit drops in
- log-watcher-accept is 7 checks: the seventh is the stop itself, with
the hard kill demoted to a fallback whose use is the failure
- measured under ASan: mcp parked, mcp after traffic, watch and run
all exit rc 0 with zero leaks; SIGINT behaves as SIGTERM

- program mode built the entry's `multi Text` of arguments and never
freed it: the entry only BORROWS a parameter (never a `take`, and
the drop tables never drop one), so the runtime that built the
container owns it
- dropped after the entry returns and after a trap alike -- the
container outlives the unwind; `multi_free` recurses, so the
argument strings go with it
- one site covers both invocation shapes: `self_rc` picks the argv
offset, it does not build a second container
- measured: watch, run and the full MCP mix now report ZERO leaks
under ASan -- the clean baseline the soak (Task 6) reads against

- the drop tables track bindings only, so six shapes had no owner: a
comparison operand (`if parse_expr(s) == nil` abandoned a schedule
record and its five containers per cron line), a borrowed call
argument (a 1 KB string per MCP request), a container read's copy,
a loop's iterable, a projected record, and any of those escaped by
a `return` from inside the statement that built them
- `c[i]` is the one place expression whose register holds a COPY:
no second copy at a boundary (`let u = tokens[0]` copied twice and
abandoned the first), and a drop where every other place is left be
- never drop an argument register after a CALL — the callee's frame
overlaps it; the reap moved into call_window's pre-call stash
- a statement-owned temporary is parked in a LOCAL slot: a loop
reclaims every temp for its body, and the end-of-statement DROP was
releasing the loop counter instead of the record
- reader builtins (get/latest/key_at/val_at) keep arg0 alive — their
result points into it — but their key argument is ordinary
- measured: run 2 112 B -> 64 B, flat 8 s to 20 s; MCP mix 21 312 B /
63 -> 64 B / 1; every handler flat from 2 to 6 requests; the 64 B
left is Task 3's argv container

Measured on the workload's supervisor mode, eight seconds, clean SIGTERM exit:
run 1 051 040 B in 24 allocations -> 2 112 B in 19; watch 128 B in 2 -> 64 B in
1. corpus 71/0, woc runtest 565/0, wovm unit gates green, just log-watcher 6/0.
- owner.ml: `oclass_of` called `Text` a builtin scalar, so it was Copy and NO
Text local was ever dropped — that, not the missing stdlib table, was the
leak. Text is now Owned, which forces an answer for what it does at an
ownership boundary, and the answer is uniform: it is COPIED. Into a
container (push/set/`m[i] = v`, already true), into a field (SETF), out of a
function (return), into a binding (`let s = other`), and into a loop cursor.
The source keeps its value; a freshly built Text stays the caller's and is
dropped at the site
- owner.ml: resolve_callee answers for three shapes it never knew — reserved
stdlib members, builtins, and a class's `static` members — so their results
get a type, an owner and a drop
- vm/builtin: WO_B_TEXT_COPY, the one new builtin the rule needs; SETF copies a
TEXT field in; emit copies a Text read out of a container, bound from a
place, returned from a place, or loaded into a cursor, and drops a freshly
built one after a copying store
- sysio.c: fs.read_all/net.read allocated their cap then relabelled the buffer
with the short length — but wo_str_free sizes a block by its len (no size
headers, obj.h), so a 1 MiB buffer wearing a 30-byte length went onto a
32-byte free list and never came back. They copy out at the true size now
- two regressions the corpus caught, fixed in the same pass: a @gc value read
out of a container is a plain borrow, not an rc-counted alias; and push's @gc
escape is keyed on "push is not a user-declared fn" rather than "the callee
did not resolve", which stopped being true once builtins resolved
- docs: Task 1 closed in the executable plan with its before/after numbers, and
the status board's item 1 records the deeper root cause
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Every remaining item is now traced to a measurement on the sample; anything the
sample does not exercise is deferred by name with the measurement that says so.
- new plan docs/plan/compiler/2026-08-14-logwatcher-executable.md — six tasks
between "it runs" and "you can leave it running": the ownership pass learning
stdlib return types (>1 MB leaked in 8s of `run` mode, one fs.read_all
result), dropping a projected temporary (`for e in parse_dir(d).entries`
leaks the shell per rescan), the runtime's own argv container (128 B every
run), honouring the stop signal in blocking calls (a server in accept ignores
SIGTERM), closing accepted connections (net.close exists, unused), and a soak
that would have caught all of it. Opens with the measured starting point and
closes with an explicit out-of-scope list
- story 7 (log-watcher proof): status banner separating the met compile-and-run
half from the executable half, plus a new Given/When/Then — clean SIGTERM
exit, zero leaks, flat RSS and descriptors across a soak
- story 5: grammar half landed, strictness half deliberately deferred
- story 6: landed for the surface the workload uses, with the two lifetime
defects it exposed pointed at the new plan
- story 7b: recorded as off this workload's path, measured — the sample has no
@gc class, 0 RC_INC/RC_DEC against 78 DROPs
- 00-status.md: NEXT PLAN is the executable list; story table and in-progress
row point at the new plan; deferrals carry their evidence
- plan 8 (haxe-parity): banner now says on hold behind the executable plan, and
its task states are corrected — Task 5 shipped, Tasks 6 and 7 are half done
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- 08-builtin-surface.md: containers copy a TEXT element/key/value; a freshly
built Text is the caller's to drop, a value read out of a place keeps its
owner; OWNED/GCREF still move and set's @gc retention gap stays open
- 00-status.md: the borrowed-Text double free is struck through as closed by
copy-on-push, with the concrete failure it fixed; new gap recorded — a
blocking accept/read swallows SIGTERM, which belongs to iteration 8's event
loop rather than a patch to the blocking calls

Found by driving the compiled log-watcher's third path — the MCP server. It now
answers real JSON-RPC over HTTP: initialize returns protocolVersion/serverInfo,
tools/list returns the full tool list (1049 bytes of generated JSON), and an
unauthorized request gets 401 {"error":"unauthorized"}. corpus 71/0, woc 565/0,
wovm gates green.
- lexer: `\r` and `\0` escapes. Without `\r` a program cannot write CRLF at
all — the server's `index_of(buf, "\r\n\r\n")` was searching for a literal
backslash-r, so it never found a header terminator and hung on every request
- parser: an interpolated sub-expression now mints node ids from the OUTER id
space. A fresh sub-parser started at 1, so `${...}` nodes collided with the
file's own nodes — and every side table (drops, moves, rc, masks, f_decl) is
keyed by node id. Surfaced as WO-E404 "ownership table names `headers`,
which has no register"; silent misattribution otherwise
- types.ml: `net.Conn` is a reserved SCALAR type (a file descriptor). It was
falling through as "some user class", i.e. WO_K_OWNED, so the frame would
DROP an integer at scope end
- types.ml: confident_typ knows `..` yields Text. Interpolation desugars to a
Concat chain, so without it every interpolated value looked underivable —
which is why the `+`-on-Text check missed two live sites in the workload
- `m[k]` on a map is now the OPTIONAL read (nil for a missing key), while
`get(m, k)` stays the asserting one that traps KEY. That is what makes
`let v = m[k]; if v != nil` — the workload's header lookup — work.
trap/missing-map-key now pins `get(...)`, and the surface doc records the
split
- json.encode of a `json.Value` emits it verbatim (kind 255): an echoed id was
coming back as "1" instead of 1
- disasm: TRY/ENDTRY render instead of ?OP32/?OP33
- status board: the push-of-a-borrowed-Text gap is now recorded with the
concrete failure it produces (tools/call tail_log), plus the leaked
temporary-record shell found in the same disassembly

Found by running the compiled log-watcher, not by reading code: the supervisor
rejected every cron line ("malformed schedule: * * * * *") because a `*` field
expands to 0 and `?Int`'s nil was also 0, so `a == nil` was true for a real
value. Both log-watcher subcommands now behave: `watch` alerts on a live file,
`run` reports SCHEDULE /var/log/backup.log: * * * * *. corpus 71/0, woc 565/0,
wovm gates green.
- a nullable SCALAR (?Int/?Bool/?Timestamp/?Id) spells nil as WO_NIL_SCALAR
(-2^62), not the zero word. Heap-shaped optionals keep 0 — a null pointer is
unambiguous. The value is -2^62 and NOT INT64_MIN on purpose: the compiler's
integers are OCaml's 63-bit natives, so INT64_MIN is not expressible there
(and `min_int * 2` silently wraps to 0 — the first attempt did exactly that)
- the class table marks such fields (WOB_FIELD_NIL_SCALAR in field_class), so
the runtime writes the right absence where it produces absence itself:
json.decode leaving a key absent or seeing `null`, and parse_int on
unparseable input (so parse_int("0") is now distinguishable from a failure).
json.encode renders a nil scalar as JSON null
- emit.ml: `nil` takes its word from its destination (annotation, field,
return type); a comparison against `nil` emits the literal with the other
operand's type, so ?scalar compares against the sentinel and ?heap against 0
- vm.c: EQS accepts a nil operand — two `?Text` values compare with it, and the
answer is "both absent is equal, one absent is not". Trapping there made
`a != b` on optionals unusable (it was trapping BOUNDS "null text" in the
supervisor's rescan). A non-nil operand must still be a real Text
- docs: both normative docs now state the heap-vs-scalar nil split and the EQS
rule; the stale duplicate vm_unwind comment is gone

docs/examples/log-watcher (1285 lines, 7 files) now compiles clean: 0
diagnostics, a 35KB .wob written. corpus 71/0, woc runtest 565/0, every wovm
unit gate green (both dispatch flavors).
- .wob v2: each class row gains three u32 per-field arrays — the field's NAME
constant, the CLASS it refers to (or the json-raw marker), and a container
field's ELEMENT kinds. json is then a runtime service driven by metadata
instead of per-type generated code. loader/emitter/disassembler/test
assembler all read and write v2; field-name constants are interned with the
rest of the pool (interning during serialization silently loses them)
- runtime/src/json.c (new): encode by static kind + object headers + class
table (nested records need no static knowledge); decode parses and BINDS
straight into the target class — keys matched to field names, nested objects
built as the field's class, arrays as a multi of the field's element kind,
unknown keys skipped, absent keys nil. Malformed input is nil, never a trap
- `as`: `json.decode(text) as T` is the one cast this language has (WO-E403
for any other `as`, and for a bare json.decode with no target type). Its
result is `?T`, which is why the decode and the target are one instruction
- json.Value: a reserved type name for a value the source does not inspect —
the raw JSON slice, kind TEXT, re-emitted verbatim by encode
- docs: 00-wob-format.md is now the v2 reference (class metadata, TRY/ENDTRY,
the whole builtin surface, WO_T_IO); 08-builtin-surface.md documents the
text/container builtins, the OS modules with their predeclared records, and
json's two documented limits (Bool encodes 0/1, floats truncate)

Driving goal: compile docs/examples/log-watcher (1285 lines of .wo).
Diagnostics on that program: 481 -> 379; parse errors 85 -> 18.
tests/corpus via scripts/oop-e2e.sh stays 71 checks / 0 failures.
- ast.ml: `Let.ty` is a full `field_ty` (was a bare name), so `multi Text`,
`map<K, V>` and `?T` annotate a local; new `ListLit`/`MapLit` expressions;
`method_decl.is_static`; `field.pub_read`
- parser.ml: let annotations go through parse_field_ty; `[]`/`[a, b]` and
`{}` literals in expression position; `static const`/`static fn` in class
bodies (one token of lookahead — `static` stays an identifier);
`pub(read) field: T`; a `;` ends a statement on its own, so one-line
guard bodies (`{ skip(...); return; }`) parse
- emit.ml: list/map literals lower to multi_new/map_new + one multi_push per
element, element kinds from the destination's declared type (WO-E403 with
no typed destination, same rule multi_new already had); `static fn` gets a
receiverless method record (arg_cnt = params) and lowers `Cls.fn(args)`
through emit_direct with no `self`; a static can satisfy no interface
- types.ml: a written `let` annotation is now the authority for the binding's
type (the only thing that types `[]`/`{}`/`nil`); `static_method_of` +
static-call return types; method_info.is_static is wired from the AST
- owner.ml: container literals are fresh owned values, elements read in place
(inherits push()'s open borrowed-element gap, noted in the code)
- plan doc: `Spec:` header line so planboard's lint accepts the plan
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Modules: `use`/`pub`, directory-as-module, per-module symbol resolution (a
flat first-wins merge silently ran the wrong `pub fn` body), six reserved
stdlib namespaces typed UNKNOWN-BUT-RESERVED.
- Surface: `and`/`or` (own precedence tier, short-circuit, Bool-only), `${}`
interpolation desugared at parse time, `const`, break/continue with
drop-correct exits, do-while, inline-fn rejection.
- switch expr/stmt: required `default` over scalars/Text, arm unification,
EQ/EQS+JZ lowering, per-arm drop scopes with N-way JOIN-DROP; `default`
sorted last by a shared lowering order (textual order made arms dead).
- typedef records: structural, same shape = one class entry; `?name: T`
nullable-by-shape; emit_ctor fills omitted defaults; `type` as field name.
- Enum variants: all-bare unions = int ordinals; any-payload = one class
entry per variant, tag IS the header class_id (no header field, no format
bump); exhaustive switch without `default`; arity checked both directions.
- Payload escape modeled as move-out (pointer-kind fields only — a scalar
escape is a copy); caller reaps owned heap temps passed by borrow: two
unbounded LSan-blind leaks, 10.5 MB -> 1.5 MB flat over 300k iterations.
- Fixed en route, each with a RED repro: dead E209 builtin-arg check and
`int_to_text` missing from both types.ml builtin tables (both segfaulted
wovm), multi-file phantom double-report, emit_ctor's field temp clobbering
dst in tail position (pre-existing), warnings swallowed without an error.
- Two fenced VM builtins: `int_to_text` (13), `variant_tag` (14).
- 14+565 unit (was 14+401), corpus 71 (was 32) plain and under wovm_asan,
wovm-test + cli_smoke green. Log-watcher 307 -> 93 diagnostics (85 E101 /
4 E207 / 1 E208 / 3 W202); the 5 non-E101 residuals await Task 7 grammar.
- `woc` now emits `.wob` that `wovm` runs: emit.ml lowers the typed,
owner-annotated AST (scope-stack registers with a >64 WO-E401 diagnostic,
Lua-style call windows, ICALL by slot, dedup const pool, drop maps, line
tables, implicit terminators); disasm.ml backs `--dump-bc` goldens.
- Ownership lowering consumes the four owner tables verbatim; RESIDUAL is the
only source of borrow ops, coalesced per operand. Review caught the emitter
consuming only 2 of owner.ml's 4 residual producers — an assignment-anchored
aliasing violation ran to exit 0 instead of trapping; fixed, plus a backstop
raising WO-E404 for any residual region left unconsumed.
- Conformance harness `scripts/oop-e2e.sh` (`just oop-e2e`): four fixture
kinds with exact outcomes — byte-exact stdout, one WO-E### anchored on
`error CODE:`, numeric trap code, gc trace. 25 fixtures incl. pricing-demo
logic, the ownership suite, and DB_STUB's parse-but-trap. `tests/` un-ignored
so the corpus is actually tracked.
- `woc build` produces a self-contained binary: wovm copy + appended image +
20-byte trailer, self-exec via /proc/self/exe. Verified relocated outside
the repo, argless, and against adversarial trailer corruption.
- Milestone 1's five spec criteria all MET (`just oop-accept`). Criterion 3
closed by WO-E405 — the entry must return `Int`, since program mode already
says its return value is the exit code — which deletes the leak class
without adding return-type metadata to the format. `gc/held-cycle` retired:
an externally-held cycle is not expressible in a post-exit pump.
- New spec: inferred GC + incremental per-shard tri-color mark-sweep, retiring
`@gc` and reference counting. Story gains iterations 7b (that work) and 9b
(`@table`, relations, compiler-checked query); `.dev/reference` gains a
sparse System.Linq checkout. Priority: 5→6→7 (log-watcher) then 7b, 8, 9, 9b.
- Board renamed docs/plan/00-kanban.md -> docs/00-status.md and rebuilt: ▶ NEXT
PLAN pointer (iteration 4 — emitter, corpus, `woc build`) then six buckets —
stories, in progress, done, pending, discarded, learnings. It covered only the
Rust runtime before, so the whole OOP track was invisible. All 16 inbound refs
repointed; `Kanban:` banners renamed to `Status:`.
- New discarded.md (settled rejections with reasons: inheritance, `abstract`,
Money/SKU/Float, Dynamic/cast/macro/extern, AOT-to-C, Menhir, shared engine
state) and learnings.md (plumbed≠enforced, vacuous goldens, exit-0-wrong-
output, malloc-path ASan trick, deferred checks that never reach the VM).
- RECOVERED docs/plan/exploration/blue-green-vm/00-vision.md — gone from disk,
never committed (gitignored path), cited by five docs incl. principle 12.
Root cause was broader: all seven forward-roadmap plans in
docs/superpowers/plans/ were untracked and ignored, on one disk only. Dropped
the docs ignore rules with a do-not-re-add note; added __pycache__/*.pyc.
- Repaired broken links across docs/, 270 -> 36: fixes a regression from the
earlier reference/ -> .dev/reference/ move (relative paths at ../../ and
deeper were skipped), plus depth and reorg drift. The 36 residual point at
content that does not exist and need decisions, not paths.
- New spec docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-10-logwatcher-gap-closure-design.md,
applied: `and`/`or` verdict row; Part 3 gains `env` (six modules), swaps
time.mono for iso/local, adds 22 bare core builtins; throw/time.mono/is cut
(0 uses in the sample). Plan 8: Task 2 gains and/or, Task 5 drops throw,
abstract+`is` task deleted, 8/9 renumber to 7/8. Plan 9 gains core builtins.
Plan 10 gains the 307 -> 0 diagnostic gate. WO-E205 re-filed unreachable-by-
design. types.ml header drops its false satisfaction-set claim. 00-code-
review.md reduced to a stub — its rival Phase 1-4 roadmap retired.
- 00-kanban.md rebuilt: ▶ NEXT PLAN pointer (iteration 4 — emitter, corpus,
`woc build`) then six buckets — stories, in progress, done, pending,
discarded, learnings. It tracked only the Rust runtime before, so the whole
OOP track (wovm shipped, woc Tasks 1-8 shipped) was invisible.
- Board now records iteration 3's known gaps instead of silently owing them:
`?T` plumbed but unenforced; E205/E201/E203/E204 dead, so structural
interface satisfaction is unchecked.
- New discarded.md — settled rejections with reasons so they are not
re-proposed: inheritance, `abstract` newtypes, Money/SKU/Float, Dynamic/cast/
macro/extern, AOT-to-C, Menhir, shared engine state, external deployer.
- RECOVERED docs/plan/exploration/blue-green-vm/00-vision.md — gone from disk,
never committed (gitignored path), cited by five docs incl. principle 12.
- Root cause was broader: all seven forward-roadmap plans in
docs/superpowers/plans/ were untracked and ignored, on one disk only. Rules
were half-fiction — 33 of 34 exploration files were already tracked, so they
swallowed only *new* files.
- Dropped the docs ignore rules (exploration, oop-vm, superpowers/plans,
examples/agent-loop, examples/mcp-think) with a do-not-re-add comment; added
__pycache__/*.pyc. `tests/` stays ignored but warns that the next plan lands
the corpus there.
Completes plan 2 Tasks 7-8. owner.ml: mutable-value-semantics flow analysis
producing the four plan-3 emitter tables (moves, drops incl. LIVE-MASK for trap
unwinding, rc with elision, residual borrow sites) plus WO-E301-304 two-site
diagnostics. Alias questions run over canonicalized places, so a double-mut
reached through let-bound aliases lands in the residual table like the direct
form; dump.ml's contract notes the emitter must coalesce guards per operand.
main.ml: directory discovery, cross-file programs (symbols merge before bodies
check), diagnostics ordered by (file,line,col), new WO-E214 for a name declared
in two files. New docs/plan/oop-vm/01-error-catalog.md (14 emitted + 10 reserved
codes), un-ignored so both plan tracks can cite it; justfile regains woc-*.
builtin_scalars is now the five that work: Int, Bool, Text, Timestamp, Id.
Money/SKU/Float and the abstract_types allowlist are gone — `abstract` never
lexed, and Float had no literal syntax and no wob kind, so no value could exist.
Fixtures and samples retype Money->Int, SKU->Text. The abstract newtype feature
is rejected outright (verdict row adopt->reject); haxe-parity Task 7 keeps `is`.
nullable-types-implementation.md corrected: ?T is plumbed but UNENFORCED
(E211-213 declared, never emitted; probe exits 0), handed to haxe-parity Task 6
as next work item. Records all 10 dead codes incl. E205 — interface satisfaction
is unchecked. crates/rt keeps its Money/SKU fixtures (opaque strings, Stage 2).
Gate: build warning-clean, 14 + 264 checks 0 failures, pricing golden exit 0,
docs/examples histograms unchanged (13/70, zero WO-E225).
- ast.ml: Added Nullable variant to field_ty; param.ty/method_sig.ret/method_decl.ret now use field_ty
- parser.ml: Parse ? prefix for field types, return types, parameters
- dump.ml: Render ?T in --dump-ast output
- types.ml: New typechecker (Task 6) with nullable field-kind derivation (WO_K_NULLABLE=6)
- dune: Added types module
- Added golden test fixtures for nullable types and statement/expression parser
- Added implementation plan doc
prototypes/wo-rt-c — single-file C reference of the writeonce runtime
layer, zero deps beyond libc + kernel uapi: thread-per-core io_uring
event loops (raw syscalls, no liburing), SO_REUSEPORT listeners, one
mlock'd mmap arena sharded by address, WAL dual-write with group commit
(HTTP ack only after the fsync CQE), boot-time snapshot + WAL replay
recovery, and a bench harness with a Go net/http comparison server.
Measured on 20 cores: 908k reads/s p99 154us and 643k fsync-acked
commits/s p99 177us on 8 shards, vs Go net/http 495k/355k (no
durability) on 20 cores. Crash-under-load testing found and fixed an
ack-before-fsync race and an fd-reuse ABA hazard in commit-ack parking.
docs/plan/exploration/c-runtime — the phased plan (00, exit evidence
