## Status
- **Step 0 (prereq) DONE:** issue 0195 (tuple/array/vector field reflection) fixed + committed
(`8ac6c573`). Tuple reflection works on inline + `$T`-param forms. Issue 0196 (tuple *alias*) filed,
not on the critical path.
- **NEXT: Step 1 — the `pointee` builtin.**
Prereqs DONE (each committed + adversarially reviewed + suite-green):
- **issue 0195** (tuple/array/vector field reflection) fixed (`8ac6c573`). Tuple reflection works on
inline + `$T`-param forms. Issue 0196 (tuple *alias*) filed, not on the critical path.
- **`pointee($P) -> Type`** builtin added (`f1d29876`) — projects `*Task(A)` → `Task(A)`.
- **`field_count`/`size_of`/`align_of` fold as comptime constants** (`2a6ef398`) — so a generic
`($T) -> Type` builder can `inline for 0..field_count(T)` and size `[field_count(T)]EnumVariant`.
Verified: the variable-arity loop + array dim now work inside `RaceResult`.
**NEXT BLOCKER (step 2, not yet resolved): nested comptime-type-call composition.** Building each
variant payload needs `*Task(A) → A`, i.e. `field_type(pointee(field_type(T, i)), 0)`. Today:
- passing a `field_type(...)` RESULT as the type-arg to a generic (`TaskResult(field_type(T, i))`) →
*"cannot infer generic type parameter 'P'"*;
- the same nested inline (`field_type(pointee(field_type(T, i)), 0)`) → *"cannot infer 'T' for
field_type"*;
- a `::` alias bound to a comptime-type-call result (`P0 :: field_type(NT, 0)`) → *"unresolved type
'P0'"* (kin to issue 0196).
So a comptime-type-call's Type result isn't usable as a generic type-arg / `::` alias / nested
type-call arg. This composition gap is the next thing to fix (or design around) before the variable-
arity `RaceResult` payloads can be built. Everything up to the payload projection works.
