shoney.arickathil b32e8a5073 docs: goal shift — log-watcher (met) to web framework as library
- NEXT PLAN rewritten: iteration 17 is the goal slice (merge branch, spec/
  plan, kind = "library", internal/ WO-E1xx, framework reorg, gate list)
- previous NEXT PLAN retitled "Landed 2026-08-15 — the executable milestone";
  all six measured items were already done, board rows were stale
- board row 7: in-progress -> landed 2026-08-15 (ASan-clean, SIGTERM, fd-flat,
  soak, just log-watcher 7/0); iteration 07 story banner updated to match
  its plan doc's done banner
- in-progress table now carries iteration 17 spec/plan
- implementation order re-sequenced for framework goal: 17, 9c/9d, 9e, 8,
  9f, 11 (+ h2c unparks), 10, 12, then 14/9g demoted (skillhost no longer
  the driving workload), 13 + parked drain last
- story notes record the shift and the new order

# Iteration 7 — log-watcher proof workload
> Format: fiberloom `product/story-iteration-template`. Part of
> [Story — one language, one runtime, one database, one binary](00-story.md).
## Goals
- The language's driving workload runs for real: the Haxe log-watcher
daemon (~1,200 lines) re-expressed file-for-file in `.wo` at
`docs/examples/log-watcher/`, compiled by `woc`, detecting a silent
death on a live file.
- The README mapping table's "could not express" column is empty — the
systems track's acceptance bar: nothing in a real daemon exceeded the
language.
> **Status: ✅ landed 2026-08-15.** Compile-and-run met 2026-08-14 (zero
> diagnostics, 106 KB standalone binary, all three modes work); the
> executable half landed 2026-08-15 — zero ASan leaks in all three modes,
> SIGTERM ends parked syscalls, fds flat across 200 requests, and the
> `LW_SOAK` gate holds RSS/descriptors flat under sustained load.
> `just log-watcher`: 7 checks, 0 failures. The work is recorded in
> [`plan/compiler/2026-08-14-logwatcher-executable.md`](../../plan/compiler/2026-08-14-logwatcher-executable.md)
> and nothing else blocks this iteration.
## Acceptance Criteria
- What to achieve?
- **Given** the eight-file `.wo` port (logtail, watcher, cron, probes,
supervisor, mcp, tools, main),
- **when** `woc` compiles the sample and the ported fixture groups run,
- **then** compilation is clean and every fixture mirrors its named
Haxe test case with matching behavior.
- What to achieve?
- **Given** the built sample running `watch` against a growing
tempfile,
- **when** the feed ends with an error line and the quiet period
elapses,
- **then** exactly one detection line appends to the JSONL sink —
the original's measured behavior, reproduced.
- What to achieve?
- **Given** the README mapping table,
- **when** the iteration closes,
- **then** every row names its `.hx` sibling and deliberate
divergences, and the could-not-express column is empty.
- What to achieve? *(added 2026-08-14 — compiling is not running)*
- **Given** any of the three modes started under a sanitizer build,
- **when** it is signalled to stop after a soak,
- **then** it exits cleanly on SIGTERM alone, reports zero leaks, and
its resident size and descriptor count are flat across the soak.
## Out Of Scope
- The sqlite-backed minilog tools — expressible when iteration 9's SQL
lands; recorded as scoped-out, not inexpressible.
- New language or stdlib features: a gap found here is a defect report
against iterations 5/6, and this iteration stops until it's resolved.
## Info
- The `.wo` files may be authored docs-first ahead of this iteration
(spec `2026-08-07-logwatcher-sample-and-principles-design.md`); this
iteration is where they must actually compile and run.
- The pure-core discipline (tail state machine, cron math, MCP `handle`
socket-free and clock-injected) is preserved — the original's best
design decision.
## Proposed Solution
- The authoring plan (`docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-01-log-watcher-sample.md`)
is spent: the `.wo` files exist and compile.
- What remains is
[`plan/compiler/2026-08-14-logwatcher-executable.md`](../../plan/compiler/2026-08-14-logwatcher-executable.md)
— six tasks, every one traced to a measurement on this sample: the ownership
pass learning stdlib return types, dropping a projected temporary, the
runtime's own argv container, honouring the stop signal in blocking calls,
closing accepted connections, and a soak that would have caught all of it.
- `just log-watcher` (`scripts/log-watcher-accept.sh`) is this iteration's gate:
compile, watch alert, cron schedule, and three MCP checks today; the soak
joins it in the last task.
