log-watcher diagnostics 129 -> 55 (json is what is left: 13 encode sites,
3 `as` parses and their cascade). corpus 71/0, woc 565/0, wovm gates green.
- runtime/src/sysio.c (new): 17 builtins behind the reserved module names —
fs.exists/list/stat/read_all/read_at/append, time.sleep/local/iso,
env.get/stopping, net.listen/accept/read/write/close, proc.run. Thin
blocking libc calls; a failed syscall traps the new WO_T_IO with errno's
own message, which `try ... catch` is how a program handles
- record-returning members (fs.stat, time.local, proc.run) take their
result record's CLASS ID as the last argument, so the VM allocates what
it fills without knowing any source type name (the err_fill pattern)
- absence is the zero word: a missing path from fs.stat and an unset
env.get are nil, not traps
- env.stopping installs SIGTERM/SIGINT handlers on first use only
- types.ml: predeclared Stat/TimeParts/Proc records (field order is the
contract with sysio.c) + the stdlib member table (arity, builtin id,
return type, result record) + stdlib return types in confident_typ
- emit.ml: stdlib member calls lower to their builtin with the record class
id appended; WO-E406 now means "no such member", not "not linked";
predeclared records enter the class table only when a program needs them
- emit.ml: fstate carries the method's declared return type, so a tail
`return []` / `return {}` gets its element kinds; a non-empty list literal
falls back to its own element type when there is no declared destination
- types.ml: confident_typ chases a container read (`c[i]`), which is what
makes a switch over a value pulled out of a map resolve; a void `try` arm
no longer demands its catch arm agree
- corpus: lang-use-stdlib-not-linked now pins WO-E406 for an unknown MEMBER
(fs.slurp) — the "not linked" premise is gone now that fs is linked

compiler/ — the OCaml woc compiler
Lexer → parser → typechecker → ownership pass → bytecode emitter, for .wo. OCaml stdlib only (no Menhir, no ppx); dune is the build runner. Sibling of the C wovm bytecode VM (runtime/) — the two halves of the OOP track's spec (docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-01-oop-compiler-vm-design.md) meet at plan 3, where woc's emitted .wob runs on wovm.
Stage: plan 3 (docs/plan/compiler/2026-08-01-wob-emit-e2e-single-binary.md) complete, Tasks 1–6 + 8 (Task 7, a parity harness against the Rust runtime, was deferred by explicit decision — the two stacks now diverge by design). .wo source compiles to .wob bytecode (--emit) and to a single self-contained executable (build) that runs wovm with no arguments and no repo-relative dependency. Milestone 1's acceptance gate — compile-time budget, the full conformance corpus under ASan, the single-binary smoke, both unit suites — is just oop-accept. Plan 2 (lexer through ownership pass) shipped first and is unchanged.
Requirements
OCaml 4.14.1, dune 3.14.0 — Ubuntu 24.04 apt packages (sudo apt install ocaml dune), the version floor. Confirm with ocaml -version / dune --version. No opam packages, no Menhir, no ppx — stdlib only.
Build, test
cd compiler && dune build # -> _build/default/bin/woc
cd compiler && dune runtest # test_diag unit checks + runner golden/CLI-smoke suite
just woc-build # same, from the repo root
just woc-test # same, from the repo root
WOC_BLESS=1 dune runtest (from compiler/) rewrites golden .expected files to match current output — use it once, by hand, to seed or intentionally update a fixture.
Running woc
woc <path> # compile (lex, parse, typecheck, ownership-check); nothing prints on success
woc --dump-tokens <path> # stdout: one line per lexed token
woc --dump-ast <path> # stdout: the declaration + body AST, indented
woc --dump-owner <path> # stdout: the ownership pass's four tables (moves, drops, rc, residual)
woc --dump-bc <path> # stdout: disassembled bytecode for every emitted method
woc --emit <path> -o <out.wob> # compile through to a .wob bytecode module, runnable by wovm
woc build <dir> -o <app> [--runtime <path>]
# compile + append the .wob image to a copy of wovm (default
# runtime/wovm, or --runtime) into one self-contained <app>
<path> is a single .wo file or a directory. A directory is discovered recursively for every .wo file under it — same contract as wo run (crates/rt/src/lib.rs::discover): dot-prefixed entries and target/data/node_modules are skipped, results are sorted by path. Every discovered file compiles as one program (declarations in one file resolve for bodies in another, regardless of discovery order); diagnostics from every file and every stage print sorted by (file, line, col). For multi-file --dump-* output, each file's dump is preceded by a === path === header line (compiler/src/dump.ml's file_header) — a single-file run never prints one.
Diagnostics render as file:line:col: severity CODE: message plus a source excerpt with a caret; every shipped code is cataloged in docs/plan/oop-vm/01-error-catalog.md. Exit codes: 0 clean compile, 1 diagnostics reported, 2 usage/IO failure.
