- 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.

# Status board — what is done, what is next
|
||
|
||
The single place to learn where this project stands. Organised in six buckets:
|
||
**stories** (the narrative arc), **in progress**, **done**, **pending**,
|
||
**discarded**, **learnings**. Every phase doc carries a matching status banner;
|
||
this board is the index.
|
||
|
||
Update this board in the same change that finishes work — move the item to done
|
||
with *what actually landed*, set the next in-progress item, and record any
|
||
rejection in [`discarded.md`](discarded.md) with its reason.
|
||
|
||
Statuses: ✅ **done** · 🔄 **in progress** · ⬜ **pending** · ⏸ **parked**
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
## ▶ NEXT PLAN
|
||
|
||
**Story iteration 4 — single binary end-to-end.**
|
||
Plan: [`compiler/plan/2026-08-01-wob-emit-e2e-single-binary.md`](compiler/2026-08-01-wob-emit-e2e-single-binary.md) ·
|
||
Story slice: [`docs/stories/language-runtime-database/04-single-binary-e2e.md`](../stories/language-runtime-database/04-single-binary-e2e.md)
|
||
|
||
The bytecode emitter, the three-kind conformance corpus, and `woc build`. This
|
||
is the milestone where `.wo` source becomes a running self-contained binary —
|
||
compiler front (iteration 3) and VM core (iteration 2) both shipped, so it is
|
||
unblocked. Its inputs are the four ownership tables `owner.ml` now produces;
|
||
`dump.ml`'s format-contract comments are normative for it, **including the
|
||
requirement to coalesce borrow guards per operand**.
|
||
|
||
Two tracks run in this repo. The critical path is the **language track**:
|
||
iterations 3 → 4 → 5 → 6 → 7, ending at *compile and run log-watcher*. The
|
||
Rust-runtime track is shipped-and-maintained, not advancing.
|

## Stories
|
||
|
||
[`docs/stories/language-runtime-database/`](../stories/language-runtime-database/00-story.md)
|
||
— one language, one runtime, one database, one binary. Twelve iterations, each
|
||
an unsplittable slice with Given/When/Then acceptance and a pointer to the plan
|
||
that sequences its tasks. Read one, approve, then the next starts.

Nothing else should be started until iteration 4 lands. Off-critical-path work

## Done
|
||
|
||
### Language track — compiler + VM (OOP track)
|
||
|
||
| Status | Item | Doc | What actually landed |
|
||
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|
||
| ✅ | Principles | [`../00-principles.md`](../00-principles.md) | 13 principles, each with a why and a link to the doc that enforces it |
|
||
| ✅ | `wovm` VM core | [plan 1](../superpowers/plans/2026-08-01-wob-format-and-vm-core.md) | `.wob` v1 loader with full static validation, register interpreter (computed-goto + ISO-C fallback), arena with size-class free lists, borrow word, RC + budgeted Bacon–Rajan cycle collector, drop-map trap unwinding, containers, builtins, ICALL, CLI. 13 suites × 2 dispatch flavors + CLI smoke, ASan/UBSan clean |
|
||
| ✅ | `.wob` format contract | [`oop-vm/00-wob-format.md`](oop-vm/00-wob-format.md) | Normative; twinned with `runtime/src/wob.h` |
|
||
| ✅ | `woc` compiler front | [plan 2](compiler/2026-08-01-woc-compiler-front.md) | Tasks 1–8: dune scaffold, `diag` (WO-E codes, two-site related errors, ordered dedup), newline-significant lexer at rt parity, declaration + statement/expression parser with skip-on-block and multi-error recovery, typechecker (field kinds, `?T` plumbing, W201, E225, E214), MVS ownership pass with the four emitter tables, driver with directory discovery + cross-file programs. 14 + 264 checks |
|
||
| ✅ | Error catalog | [`oop-vm/01-error-catalog.md`](oop-vm/01-error-catalog.md) | 14 emitted codes + 10 reserved, each with the reason it is not yet emitted |
|
||
| ✅ | log-watcher `.wo` sample | [`../examples/log-watcher/`](../examples/log-watcher/README.md) | Eight-file port authored docs-first with its `.hx` mapping table; compiles for real in iteration 7 |
|
||
| ✅ | Scalar cleanup | [`discarded.md`](discarded.md) | `Money`/`SKU`/`Float` and the abstract allowlist removed; `abstract` flipped adopt → reject |
|
||
|
||
**Known gaps carried out of iteration 3** — recorded, not silently owed:
|
||
|
||
- **`?T` is plumbed but unenforced.** Lexer/token/AST/parser/dump all handle
|
||
`?T`; the semantics do not exist (`WO-E211`/`E212`/`E213` declared, never
|
||
emitted — a probe returning `?Int` as `Int` exits 0). Owned by iteration 5,
|
||
plan 8 Task 6, which is that iteration's first task because it blocks the
|
||
log-watcher port. See [`compiler/nullable-types-implementation.md`](compiler/nullable-types-implementation.md).
|
||
- **Structural interface satisfaction is not checked** (`WO-E205` dead), along
|
||
with type mismatch, bad arity, and unknown-fn (`E201`/`E203`/`E204`) — all
|
||
named in plan 2 Task 6's own must-fail list. Gaps in shipped work, catalogued
|
||
as reserved.
|
||
- Six further narrowings (W201 heuristic, E225 reach, dead code after `return`,
|
||
unresolved-callee drops, RC table ordering, residual b-side role) are listed
|
||
in the plan-2 SDD ledger and in the affected files' own comments.
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
Ecommerce sample (verified 2026-06-13): `api.rest` 17/17 expected statuses pass.

### Language track — parked until after iteration 12
|
||
|
||
Recorded 2026-08-08 by scope directive; nothing here lands before the
|
||
log-watcher proof.
|
||
|
||
- `WO-W201` `@gc`-suggestion refinement beyond the self-reference heuristic
|
||
- `WO-E225` broadened to `ref`/`multi`/`map` element types and fn signatures
|
||
- ADT container roster adoption (Stack, Queue, Set, Tree, Graph, …) — see the
|
||
roster in [`compiler/nullable-types-implementation.md`](compiler/nullable-types-implementation.md)
|
||
- Web framework as a `.wo` library; UI (`##ui` SSR + live patches);
|
||
script-based destructive migrations; MCP/agent wrapper over the management plane
|

## Discarded
|
||
|
||
Settled rejections with their reasons live in [`discarded.md`](discarded.md) —
|
||
inheritance, `abstract` newtypes, `Money`/`SKU`/`Float`, `Dynamic`/`cast`/
|
||
`macro`/`extern`, AOT-to-C, Menhir, shared mutable engine state, external
|
||
deployer daemon, destructive migrations in v1, and more. Argue against the
|
||
recorded reason rather than re-opening an entry as new.
|
||
|
||
## Learnings
|
||
|
||
What attempts taught, shipped or not, in [`learnings.md`](learnings.md) —
|
||
plumbed-is-not-enforced, vacuously-passing goldens, exit-0-with-wrong-output,
|
||
the malloc-path ASan trick, deferred checks that never reach the runtime,
|
||
validate-once-at-the-boundary, and reference-implement-in-C-first.
|
