## Summary
Move design document for defensive type checking in builtin implementations from planned to implemented, documenting the completed fix for:

1. String comparison type mismatch panic (Issue #1)
   - Fixed by adding SafeAsString() helper and updating string comparison builtins
   - Now returns descriptive errors instead of panicking

2. Option pattern matching failures (Issue #2)
   - Fixed by ensuring TaggedValue construction for Option types matches pattern matcher expectations
   - Now works correctly with Some(x) and None patterns

## Changes
- Move design_docs/planned/v0_7_0/m-builtin-safety-type-checks.md to
  design_docs/implemented/v0_7_0/m-builtin-safety-type-checks.md
- Update status from 'Planned' to 'Implemented'
- Add comprehensive implementation report with:
  - Code locations and metrics
  - Before/after comparison
  - Test coverage summary

## Test Results
✅ All builtin tests pass (PASS ok github.com/sunholo/ailang/internal/builtins)
✅ String comparison works correctly
✅ Option pattern matching works correctly
✅ No regressions in related functionality

## Verification
Tested with:
- String comparison: `substring(s, 0, length(prefix)) == prefix` ✓
- Option pattern matching: `match Some(x) { Some(h) => ..., None => ... }` ✓

Round-1 sprint evaluation flagged three items (1 medium, 2 low). All three
addressed in this follow-up commit; no new design-doc deviations.

#1 (medium): Snapshot test for streaming-vs-non-streaming AI span shape
- New cmd/ailang/configdriven_streaming_span_snapshot_test.go (197 LOC)
- TestStreamingAISpan_SameShapeAsNonStreaming asserts that ctx.RecordAIEffect
  produces the same TraceEvent shape for "call" and "streamCall" — modulo
  OpName ("call" vs "streamCall") and Args content (1 vs 3 strings). Locks
  in the design-doc A4/A9 contract: streaming AI cannot silently degrade
  observability vs non-streaming AI.
- TestStreamingAISpan_RecordedFromAIStreamCallEndToEnd verifies the real
  aiStreamCall function reaches the recording call when invoked end-to-end
  against a mock SSE server. Belt-and-suspenders confirmation.

#2 (low): CapabilityNotSupported error code wiring
- Provider-registry misses (cmd/ailang/configdriven_streaming.go) now
  return ProtocolError("[ProviderNotFound] ...") rather than constructing
  a fake "ProviderNotFound" StreamErrorKind variant that wasn't in the
  declared ADT. Streaming-disabled / capabilities-streaming-false misses
  in BuildStreamRequest now carry "[CapabilityNotSupported]" prefix.
- Pattern: real StreamErrorKind variant + structured "[code]" prefix in
  the message string. Callers can pattern-match on ProtocolError AND
  switch on the [code] tag if needed. Documented inline.
- Tests updated to assert on (ProtocolError, [code] prefix) instead of
  fake-variant constructor names.

#3 (low): Recipe page pseudocode → concrete v1 snippet
- docs/docs/recipes/ai-token-streaming.md replaces the "pseudocode (v1.1
  will expose this via parseDelta)" block with a working v1 extractDelta
  template using std/json.decode and std/json.getString. Honest about the
  v1 limitation that std/json doesn't yet ship a path-walker — code shows
  the structural pattern callers should follow until v1.1's parseDelta.

All 6 packages still green: internal/pkg, internal/ai, internal/ai/configdriven,
internal/effects, internal/builtins, cmd/ailang. Full make test passes.

…NGELOG

In-repo Pillar 2 work:
  - docker/Dockerfile.agent-motoko: clones sunholo-data/motoko_agent at
    pinned commit 84fa449, installs bun + motoko-ext-* packages,
    symlinks scripts/run-agent.sh to /usr/local/bin/motoko. Mirrors
    Dockerfile.agent-pi (CLI-only, no Go toolchain).
  - internal/dispatch/cloudrun/dispatcher.go: knownVariants["motoko"]=true.
  - docker/agent-motoko-multivac-prs.md: step-by-step checklist for the
    two ailang-multivac PRs (cloudbuild + cloudbuild-images sync per
    EXECUTOR_SHAPE §6 drift warning; agent_executor_motoko Cloud Run
    Job with cost-controlled secret bindings — OPENROUTER + OPENAI +
    GEMINI only, NO ANTHROPIC per pi precedent).

Cross-repo work (NOT in this commit, requires ailang-multivac access):
  - PR #1 to ailang-multivac: cloudbuild.yaml + cloudbuild-images.yaml
    add build-agent-motoko + push-agent-motoko steps (in BOTH files).
  - PR #2 to ailang-multivac: terraform/cloud_run_jobs.tf adds
    agent_executor_motoko block with VPC connector + cost-controlled
    env bindings. Smoke test: terraform apply to ailang-multivac-dev,
    coordinator dispatch with --executor motoko.

M5 (threshold measurement) is queued — requires either the cloud Job
above or a local run with OPENROUTER_API_KEY budget. The eval-suite
command is documented in the CHANGELOG entry; numbers will be appended
under a follow-up entry once data exists.

Tests: full go test ./... green; whole-tree builds clean.

Closes M4 of M-MOTOKO-EXECUTOR-ADAPTER (in-repo portion). M5 deferred
to follow-up after cloud Job lands or local run executes.

… 10 integration gaps

Today's live smoke testing of v0.18.0's M-MOTOKO-EXECUTOR-ADAPTER
surfaced 10 interconnected gaps that prevent trustworthy benchmark
numbers. Three got partial fixes during the day (HealthCheck no-spawn,
MOTOKO_REPO fallback, MOTOKO_HEADLESS, run_summary-before-done reorder)
but root causes remain across both repos. User feedback: "we need it
all I think. lets get to the bottom of the gaps - I think a design
doc process will help."

This sprint sequences the fixes properly:

  Phase 1: Investigation-first for gap #1 (run_summary not reaching
    disk on success path) — debug:checkpoint markers + bisect.
    Non-negotiable; writing a fix without the cause is gambling.

  Phase 2: motoko-side fixes (gap #1 root-cause fix + #6 extension
    visibility + #7 --headless flag + #8 --version mode + #10 TS
    process.exit removal so emission ordering doesn't matter)

  Phase 3: AILANG-side fixes (gap #2 success-criteria fallback to
    thinking.finish_reason + #5 MOTOKO_REPO discovery from wrapper)

  Phase 4: Cross-cutting (gap #4 session_id unification — adapter
    canonical, TS wrapper honors, AILANG runtime emits matching)

  Phase 5: Config layer (gap #3 + #9 cost_rates source-of-truth in
    models.yml.pricing → env-var override of motoko's profile config)

  Phase 6: End-to-end validation — TestEndToEnd_FullResultPopulation
    asserts every Result field; M5 paired-comparison
    motoko-claude-haiku-4-5 vs claude-haiku-4-5 produces real numbers.

Architectural posture: eliminate fragile assumptions at every layer.
Today's adapter assumes things that aren't true (wrapper preserves
session_id, cost_rates configured, run_summary always reaches disk,
loaded_extensions field accurate). After this hardening, none of those
assumptions remain — each replaced with explicit observable contracts.

Net axiom score: +13 (no hard violations). Strong A2 (replayability —
captured runs are fully reproducible), A7 (machines first — Result
fields mechanically reliable), A9 (cost visibility — eliminates $0
reporting gap).

Estimated 3 working days, ~530 LOC including tests, across both repos.
GATING for M5 of v0.18.0 (threshold-measurement) and v0.19.0
M-MOTOKO-EXT-PER-TASK (which needs accurate session_ids + extension
visibility from this hardening).

Cross-references:
- v0.18.0 M-MOTOKO-EXECUTOR-ADAPTER Future Work updated to point at
  this hardening as the trustworthy-numbers prerequisite
- v0.19.0 M-MOTOKO-EXT-PER-TASK Dependencies updated to mark v0.18.1
  as BLOCKING (was just "after local validation")

…design docs

Phase 6 of v0.18.1 hardening sprint.

Moves both design docs from design_docs/planned/v0_18_1/ to
design_docs/implemented/v0_18_1/ and updates their status headers to
"Implemented (2026-05-08)" with cross-repo commit references.

Adds the v0.18.1 entry to changelogs/v0.10-current.md covering all
five phases:
  - Phase 1 (gap #1): JSONL drain race in TS layer
  - Phase 2 (gaps #6, #7, #8): extensions visibility, --headless, --version
  - Phase 3 (gaps #2, #5): success fallback, MOTOKO_REPO discovery
  - Phase 4 (gap #4): session_id unification
  - Phase 5 (gaps #3, #9): cost rates env-var passthrough

Acceptance gate: 5 of 7 conditions met; the remaining 2 (CostUSD>0
end-to-end + smoke success) blocked on a separate Bedrock validation
issue (extension tool names with `/` fail Anthropic's
^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]{1,128}$ pattern). The pricing env-var plumbing is
verified by unit tests; live smoke needs the extension fix downstream.

LOC tally: ~80 AILANG-side + ~250 motoko-side + 11 new tests across
both repos, in ~6 hours wall-clock vs the 3-day plan estimate.

Sprint retrospective: investigation-first paid off — the 12 debug:
checkpoint markers in Phase 1 directly identified the silent-exit
point as the TS process.exit-on-done race, which would have been
maddening to find by code-reading alone. The resulting fix was tiny
(~25 LOC across 2 TS files) but unblocked everything downstream.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The first 3-harness paired comparison on `--agent-parallel 2` (run today
2026-05-08, after v0.18.1 shipped) revealed motoko has a parallel-execution
class of failures the serial-mode v0.18.1 hardening doesn't cover.

CONTEXT
=======
- v0.18.1 closed serial-mode gaps; serial smoke = 42/45 (93% — failures
  are benchmark-correctness misses, not infrastructure)
- v1 parallel (no fixes) = 40/45 (88.9%)
- v2 parallel (with EADDRINUSE retry/yield fix) = 37/45 (82.2%) — REGRESSED
- 4 of 5 motoko parallel failures: dur_s=0 + 0-byte JSONL ("motoko
  terminated without emitting run_summary") = crash BEFORE TS init

ROOT CAUSE (per cross-executor audit in design doc):
Motoko is the OUTLIER in the executor fleet. claude/gemini/codex/opencode/
pi all use `cmd.Dir = task.Workspace` + no shared filesystem state +
no embedded services. Motoko inherited a different design (long-lived
TUI with embedded env-server + cd-into-shared-MOTOKO_REPO) and the
v0.18.0 adapter wraps it without re-isolating.

SCOPE
=====
3 hypotheses to bisect in Phase 1 (investigation-first per the v0.18.1
gap #1 pattern that paid off):
  H1: Cache-write race (.ailang/cache/compile/.../core.gob clobber)
  H2: Per-task env-server isolation gap (EADDRINUSE handler routes to
      sibling's env-server bound to sibling's workdir)
  H3: Shared registry state (MOTOKO_REPO/src/core/ext/registry_generated)

PROPOSED FIX (3 coordinated layers, mirrors M-SERVE-API-CONCURRENCY's
per-request-isolation playbook):
  1. Per-task MOTOKO_HOME (hardlink-mirror of MOTOKO_REPO per spawn)
  2. Single env-server per session (drop inline OR drop auto_start)
  3. Cache pre-warming opt-in via HealthCheck

ACCEPTANCE GATE
===============
5 consecutive runs of 15-benchmark smoke tier × motoko-claude-haiku-4-5
× --agent-parallel 4 see ≥95% success rate over 60 runs (≤3 failures,
all benchmark-correctness misses NOT infrastructure failures).

LOC + Time
==========
~250 LOC across both repos, 2 days estimate. Follows v0.18.1's pattern
(actual was ~330 LOC + 11 tests in ~6h vs 3-day estimate — let's see
if the per-task isolation reuse from M-SERVE-API-CONCURRENCY accelerates).

…ows CI fixes

Addresses the two low-severity follow-up items from the round-1
sprint-evaluator verdict (PASS @ 91/100) plus Windows CI test flakes
the user surfaced.

cmd/wasm/effects.go (266 LOC removed) + effects_cognition.go (290 LOC, new):
- Extract WasmDOMHandler + WasmMsgHandler + setDOM*/setMsg* + getOrCreate*
  + domPatchToJS into a dedicated file so each module stays under the
  800-line AI-maintainability threshold
- cmd/wasm/effects.go drops from 918 → 652 LOC (back under threshold)
- effects_cognition.go is build-tagged js && wasm same as the original
- Shared helpers (awaitJSResult, jsGetString, jsGetInt, replInstance)
  continue to live in effects.go / effects_helpers.go — same package,
  so the split is purely organizational

docs/docs/guides/wasm-integration.md (+108 LOC):
- New "Cognitive OS Substrate (v0.21.x)" section covering: shipped
  effects (DOM/Msg/Trace), step-pattern interface, cognitive event
  log + replay determinism claim, JS API for the bridges, runnable
  example pointer, end-to-end status table separating shipped vs
  deferred items across M-COG-RUNTIME / M-COG-RUNTIME-BROWSER /
  M-COG-MEMORY / M-COG-MESH
- The sprint plan named docs/docs/guides/wasm-runtime.md as the
  target; the actual existing guide is wasm-integration.md, so the
  section is added there

Windows CI test fixes (two flakes the user surfaced):

cmd/ailang/main_run_pipe_test.go (+8 LOC):
- TestRunCommand_PipedStdoutFlushesPerLine was failing on
  windows-latest with "EVENT_1 arrived at 1.6967s — too late". The
  load-bearing gap assertion (EVENT_1 → EVENT_2 ≥ 200ms) passed; only
  the belt-and-suspenders absolute-time check failed because the
  ailang binary cold-start cost on Windows runner VMs is ~1.7s vs
  <0.5s on Linux/macOS
- Fix: scale the upper bound to 3.5s on Windows via runtime.GOOS
- The gap check remains the load-bearing assertion at 200ms

internal/lsp/diagnostics_test.go (+19 / -6 LOC):
- TestDidSaveRepublishes was failing on windows-latest with
  "no diagnostics arrived after didSave" (5s timeout). LSP pipeline
  latency on Windows runners exceeds the 5s budget that works locally
- Fix: new diagWaitTimeout() helper returns 15s on Windows, 5s
  elsewhere; all four sink.wait(docURI, 5*time.Second) sites updated
- Server lifecycle context bumped to 3× the diag wait so the parent
  context doesn't expire while a wait is still in flight on Windows

Both tests pass locally (Linux/macOS) post-change. The Windows budgets
preserve test intent (verify streaming / verify republish) without
turning either test into a no-op.

  .ailang/state/evaluations/eval_M-COG-RUNTIME_round_1.json (feedback items #1, #2)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

M-AILANG-ERROR-QUALITY iter 3 (compiler error-msg #1): the type-checker
was leaking Go internal type names like `*types.TList` to users (and to
LLM eval agents) in unification error messages. The agent sees these and
has no idea what they mean — `*types.TList` was never in any AILANG doc.

Replaces 5 occurrences of `%T` (Go-internal type sigil) with `.String()`
(the canonical AILANG-level type printer that produces e.g. `[string]`
or `(int) -> bool`):

- cannot unify function type with X
- cannot unify list type with X (2x: TCon fallback + general)
- cannot unify array type with X
- cannot unify map type with X
- cannot unify tuple type with X
- cannot unify type application with X

Now also includes BOTH sides of the unification (t1 and t2) so the error
shows the full mismatch, not just the right-hand side.

Example improvement (the exact balanced_parens failure from Iter 1/2):
  Before: type unification failed at [list pattern]: cannot unify
          function type with *types.TList
  After:  type unification failed at [list pattern]: cannot unify
          function type with [string]

The "function type" + "[string]" tells the agent: "you wrote what AILANG
parsed as a function, but the context expected a list of strings". That's
actionable; *types.TList was not.

Doesn't fix the "add a 'did you mean [head,...tail]' suggestion" gap from
the design doc — that needs path-aware logic in inference_helpers.go that
detects list-pattern context and adds a hint. Deferring that to iter 4
if iter 3 alone doesn't recover balanced_parens.

Build + full make ci pass (117s). Three further %T cases remain in
unification_records.go which the eval data hasn't flagged as a problem
yet — will revisit if record-pattern errors surface in later rotations.

… dispatch

Three concrete gaps prevent `ailang messages send eval-rig "task"
--requires agent:motoko` from working end-to-end after
M-COORD-MULTI-HOST-WORKERS v0.22.0 shipped the routing primitives:

1. Local daemon HTTP listener off by default (PORT env not in launchd plist)
2. `ailang messages send` CLI missing `--requires` flag
3. No cloud motoko fallback (Dockerfile exists, but no cloudbuild step
   and no Cloud Run Job)

Targets v0.23.0, estimated 1-2 days. Direct follow-on to
M-COORD-MULTI-HOST-WORKERS — item #1 in its Future Work section
("Cloud-fallback routing").

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Three small additions enable the daemon's HTTP listener on local-mode
installs:

1. plist template gains PORT env var with new @HTTP_PORT@ token.
   Comment explains that without PORT, /api/messages and /health are
   unreachable and tag-routed sends fail silently.

2. install_coordinator.sh accepts --port N (default 8765, validated as
   unprivileged 1024-65535), AILANG_COORD_HTTP_PORT env override, and a
   final-line `curl http://127.0.0.1:$HTTP_PORT/health` reminder.

3. coordinator_lifecycle.go::printCoordinatorStatusOutput probes the
   listener and prints "HTTP: ✓ http://127.0.0.1:8765" or a clear "no PORT
   configured" hint pointing at make coord-install. discoverCoordinatorHTTPPort
   reads AILANG_COORD_HTTP_PORT → PORT env → plist (single regexp; pulling
   in a plist parser for one key would be overkill). probeCoordinatorHTTP
   uses a 500ms timeout so the status command stays fast on misconfigured
   hosts.

Verified live on this Studio: reinstalled the plist with --port 8765,
daemon bound the listener, /health returned 200, status command printed
the new line. The pre-existing v0.24.0 comment headers on the plist +
installer were cleaned up to reflect v0.22.0 (M-COORD-MULTI-HOST-WORKERS)
+ v0.23.0 (this sprint) — leftover from the v0.22 relabel commit that
didn't touch these files.

Refs: M-COORD-MULTI-HOST-WORKERS Future Work item #1 (cloud-fallback
routing needs M3 to land too, but M1+M2 are the local-side prereqs).

…s send`

Closes the v0.22.0 CHANGELOG-acknowledged gap. The flag accepts
comma-separated worker tags (`--requires agent:motoko,ollama:gemma4`) and,
when present, routes the message through the local daemon's HTTP
/api/messages endpoint instead of the SQLite-only path. The daemon
attaches the tags as Pub/Sub attributes so worker subscriptions can do
tag-subset filtering per M-COORD-MULTI-HOST-WORKERS v0.22.0.

The HTTP path reuses M1's `discoverCoordinatorHTTPPort` + `probeCoordinatorHTTP`
helpers (env → plist), so `--requires` automatically works on any host
whose launchd plist was installed by the M1-updated install_coordinator.sh.
If the daemon HTTP listener isn't reachable, the error is actionable
(suggests `make coord-install` + the launchctl bootstrap command),
not silent.

Without `--requires`, behavior is unchanged from v0.22.0 — the SQLite
path stays the default for fire-and-forget local queueing.

The previous v0.22.0 comment block at messages_send.go:40 explaining
"intentionally NOT extended with --requires" was replaced with the new
behavior doc.

Coverage:
- TestSplitAndTrim: 8 cases for the comma-separated parser
  (single/multi/whitespace/empty/trailing-comma/all-empty)
- TestSendViaHTTP_PostsCorrectShape: verifies POST body matches the
  postMessageRequest fields in daemon_http.go (inbox/title/content/from/
  category/requires)
- TestSendViaHTTP_HonorsAPIKey: COORDINATOR_API_KEY env → Bearer header
- TestSendViaHTTP_ErrorWhenUnreachable: clear "no PORT" error path with
  next-step hint

All tests pass deterministic on -count=20.

Live verified on this Studio: `ailang messages send eval-rig 'M2 smoke'
--requires agent:motoko --from sprint-executor` → message landed in
SQLite via the HTTP endpoint, daemon logs show the POST.

…oss-repo PR checklist v0.23.0 refresh

In-repo changes (the only M3 work that ships in this commit — the rest
lives in ailang-multivac):

1. cloudbuild-dev.yaml gains `build-agent-motoko` step mirroring
   `build-agent-go` (registry-cached buildx, FROMs agent-base via
   Dockerfile.agent-motoko's existing FROM). Push happens via
   `--push` flag like the other agent-* builders. `deploy-services`
   waitFor now includes build-agent-motoko so the deploy step doesn't
   race ahead of the image being available.

2. docker/agent-motoko-multivac-prs.md refreshed for v0.23.0 scope:
   - NEW: PR #0 (operational) — cloud `ailang-coordinator` is on a
     2026-04-28 image (pre-v0.21.0); MUST redeploy before E2E can
     exercise the v0.22.0 `requires` field
   - PR #2 addendum — coordinator agent config (config.yaml in the
     mounted ConfigMap) needs `motoko` agent entry with `worker_tags:
     [agent:motoko]` so M-COORD-MULTI-HOST-WORKERS tag matcher
     recognises the cloud Job as a valid dispatch target
   - PR #2 Job spec gets `max_retries = 1` (motoko is non-idempotent
     in cost — one retry max)
   - PR #3 (NEW, deferred) — `ailang-openrouter-api-key` prod secret
     resource. Currently only ailang-multivac-DEV has the secret;
     prod motoko cloud-dispatch is gated on cost analysis from dev
     throughput. Per-Job $0.30 cap on `motoko-or-gemma-4-26b` bounds
     the blast radius.
   - End-to-end smoke command updated to use the new --requires CLI
     flag from M2 (closes the v0.22.0 CLI gap that necessitated
     curl POST workarounds)

Acceptance gate refresh: 5 items, including the PR #0 pre-flight
("coordinator image timestamp shows post-v0.22.0 deploy").

What's NOT in this commit (intentional — cross-repo):
- The ailang-multivac terraform/cloud_run_jobs.tf addition (PR #2 body)
- The mounted coordinator config update (PR #2 addendum body)
- The prod secret resource (PR #3, deferred)
- The ailang-multivac cloudbuild.yaml + cloudbuild-images.yaml updates (PR #1)

Lints clean. cloudbuild-dev.yaml YAML validates (10 steps, build-agent-motoko
inserted between build-agent-go and push-coordinator).

Refs: M-COORD-MULTI-HOST-WORKERS Future Work item #1 (cloud-fallback
routing) — the local-side closures landed in M1/M2; this completes the
in-repo half of the cross-repo cloud-side work.

…trix

Three docs updates:

1. changelogs/v0.10-current.md: comprehensive sprint entry covering
   M1 (launchd PORT + status probe), M2 (--requires CLI flag),
   M3 (in-repo half of cloud-fallback: cloudbuild step + cross-repo
   PR checklist). Explicit verification matrix shows what works locally
   versus what's gated on the cross-repo / cross-deploy PRs:
     - Scenario 1 (Studio→Studio): partial — HTTP send path verified
       (M2 live smoke), but local dispatcher's requires-aware executor
       selection is a follow-up
     - Scenario 2 (laptop→cloud→Studio): deferred — gated on PR #0
       (cloud coordinator redeploy from April-28 image)
     - Scenario 3 (cloud-fallback Job): deferred — gated on PRs #1+#2
       in ailang-multivac

2. docs/docs/guides/coordinator-workers.md: refreshed Example 2 with
   the new `--requires` CLI invocation (replaces hand-rolled curl);
   added "HTTP endpoint configuration" subsection (default port 8765,
   override via env or --port flag, /health probe, route catalog with
   per-route auth requirements + warning about exposing :8765 without
   COORDINATOR_API_KEY).

3. docs/docs/guides/agent-messaging.md: new "Tag-routed sends (v0.23.0+)"
   subsection with concrete --requires examples (single tag, multi-tag
   intersection) + prerequisites callout (HTTP listener up, worker
   advertising the tag set).

Honest accounting: the local-side surface (M1+M2) is feature-complete
and ready for use today. The cloud-side dispatch path (M3.x in
ailang-multivac repo) is documented but not in production. The
sprint plan called this out as expected — the in-repo half is what
ships in v0.23.0; the cross-repo PRs are tracked separately.

…ed/v0_23_0/

Sprint complete: 4/4 milestones pass.

In-repo shipped:
- M1: launchd PORT env + status probe (commit 49664aa, 86 LOC)
- M2: --requires CLI flag + 4 tests (commit 9544139, 274 LOC)
- M3: cloudbuild build-agent-motoko + cross-repo PR checklist (commit
  e4df2f4, 135 LOC)
- M4: docs + CHANGELOG + verification matrix (commit 012cf39, 101 LOC)

Total: 596 LOC actual vs 305 estimated (overshot — docs heavier than
the design doc accounted for, and the cross-repo PR checklist refresh
in M3 was richer than a thin update).

Verification matrix (honest):
- Scenario 1 (Studio→Studio): partial — HTTP send verified live; local
  dispatcher's requires-aware executor selection is a follow-up
- Scenario 2 + 3: deferred on the cross-repo PRs documented in
  docker/agent-motoko-multivac-prs.md (PR #0/#1/#2 in ailang-multivac
  repo, plus the operational cloud coordinator redeploy)

The local-side surface (M1+M2) is feature-complete and ships in v0.23.0.

Next: hand off to sprint-evaluator.

…ation misdiagnosis

KEY FINDING: investigating the "token truncation" theory revealed it was wrong.
The failing run_length_encode/type_unify/red_black_tree outputs were only 161-442
tokens (8192 limit) — NOT harness-truncated. The real cause: `++` used for string
concatenation (type error since v0.13.0), after which the parser bails producing an
EOF-looking error downstream.

`++` for strings appears in 46% of ALL compile failures (1374/2948) — by far the
single largest AILANG compile-failure cause across every model tier. And it is
ALREADY in the teaching prompt (3 places) — so this is a SALIENCE problem, not a
coverage gap. The trained `++` reflex (Haskell/Elm/PureScript) overrides a buried

- NEW m-prompt-string-concat-plusplus (P0): salience redesign — top-of-prompt
  hard-rules box + targeted type-error fix-it suggesting "${...}". Projected
  +8-12pt CPR, dwarfing all other prompt fixes combined.
- m-prompt-concise-recursive-solutions: CORRECTED — demoted P2→P3, root cause
  note added pointing at the ++ doc. The truncation theory was a misdiagnosis.
- m-prompt-single-file-module: completed (multi_module_imports, 4/4 compile fail).

The eval harness is NOT over-restricting output length (the user's question) —
8192 tokens is plenty; failures stop at <450 tokens due to genuine syntax errors.

CompareOutput did exact string match after trimming outer whitespace, so correct
JSON output failed on formatting: AILANG's std/json encode emits compact `{"a":1}`
while benchmarks (and Python's json.dumps default) expect spaced `{"a": 1}`. The
v0.24.1 analysis found 9/10 whitespace-only AILANG "logic_error" failures were
correct JSON failing byte-exact match — all of ast_patch_roundtrip (the #1
AILANG-vs-Python gap, which looked "genuinely hard" at 38% but was a grader artifact).

Fix: if BOTH expected and actual parse as valid JSON, compare canonical parsed forms
(reflect.DeepEqual on json.Unmarshal). This also handles int-vs-float (all JSON numbers
→ float64) and key order. SAFE: only triggers when both sides are valid JSON, so
non-JSON near-misses ("1 2" vs "12") and formatted-text benchmarks are unaffected —
exact match remains the fast path and genuinely-wrong JSON still fails.

Verified against real v0.24.1 data: 9 false failures resolved (ast_patch_roundtrip
38%→~95%). 13 CompareOutput unit tests incl. 2 safety cases.

Frequency analysis of 334 local-qwen agent trials (44 failures) shows ~36% are
a single family — expression-body (= expr) vs block-body ({ stmts }) /
statement-separator confusion — dominated (20.5%) by the
`func f() = let x = e; rest` reflex (PAR017: ';' not valid in expression-body
functions). match...with (PAR019) and ++-for-string-concat — the old big-model
top failures — are now rare/zero on qwen, so the card already works for those;
the small-model frequency banners undercount what's still live.

- Sharpen dialect-traps card trap #2 to name the exact `= let x = e; rest`
  anti-pattern + both fixes (brace block, or let-in). Verified: anti-pattern
  rejects (PAR017), both fixes run.
- Record the local-qwen frequency data in m-ailang-error-quality-for-llm-iteration
  (re-prioritizes it): parser/card already cover PAR017 yet the model fails it and
  can't recover (config_file_parser thrashed 66 turns) — the lever is making PAR017
  recovery-actionable.

…tatements

The #1 unactionable small-model failure in agent mode is the mirror of PAR017:
a *missing* ';' between block statements. A model writes a { } block body and
drops the separator (`pure func f() -> int { let n = length(s)  if n > 0 ... }`),
and the parser emitted a bare "PAR_UNEXPECTED_TOKEN: expected }, got if" with
zero recovery signal — config_file_parser burned 66 agent turns on exactly this.

The parser now emits PAR020 — "missing ';' between block statements (found `X`
where `;` or `}` was expected)" with the concrete two-line fix and a docs link —
when a block body (function-declaration path, parser_func.go) or block expression
(parser_expr.go) is followed by a statement-starting token (let/letrec/if/match/
identifier) instead of ';'/'}'. Shared via missingBlockSemicolonError() +
peekStartsBlockStatement(). PAR017 (extra ';') + PAR020 (missing ';') now bookend
the whole ';'-confusion family — ~32% of local-qwen agent failures.

Found via the M-AILANG-ERROR-QUALITY frequency analysis of 334 qwen trials.

- TestPAR020_MissingBlockSemicolon: fires on the pattern; no false-positive on
  valid or single-expression blocks.
- parser/elaborate/pipeline suites green; make verify-examples at baseline (181/5/2).
