- 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;
ASan build flat at 14600 KiB across 601686 requests in 90 s past its
~1200-request quarantine warm-up

- 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

The unsoundness is closed. All four MCP tools now answer correctly over HTTP
(get_running_crons, list_logs, tail_log -> ["info two","error three"],
search_log -> its match) where `tail_log` used to return
{"isError":true,"text":"tool failed: not a text value"}. corpus 71/0,
woc 565/0, wovm gates green, ASan clean on the container fixtures.
- builtin.c: multi_push, map_set (key AND value) and multi_set COPY a TEXT
element into the container. The container's declared kinds already make it
the owner of what it holds, so storing a caller-owned pointer gave one
string two owners — `push(res, e.log_path)` freed a record's field out from
under it. OWNED/GCREF elements still move (not copyable; the @gc escape
keeps their counting), so `set`'s @gc gap is untouched and still recorded
- emit.ml: `drop_fresh_text` — after push/set and the `m[k] = v` / `m[i] = v`
sugar, a value that was freshly BUILT (call result, `..` chain,
interpolation) is dropped here, while a value read out of a place is left to
its owner. That asymmetry is the point: before the copy the borrowed case
double freed and the fresh case leaked
- obj.c: the runtime's output stream is line-buffered. A long-running program
writing progress with `print` was invisible when stdout was a file or a pipe
(full buffering), and a killed one lost its log entirely; byte-exact
fixtures are unaffected
- scripts/log-watcher-accept.sh + `just log-watcher`: the acceptance test for
the sample — compile, watch (alert), run (schedule), and three MCP checks.
Hardened after it lied to me: a per-run port (a stale server on a fixed port
answered for it), a connect-probe that fails loudly when OUR server did not
come up, replies read by Content-Length rather than to EOF (the sample never
closes), and kill -9 on teardown
- docs: the copy rule is in the builtin surface; the status board records the
gap as closed and adds the new one — a blocking accept/read swallows SIGTERM,
which belongs to the shard-actor runtime's event loop, not to a patch here

- 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.
