Lands the full VM/compiler-API arc on branch reify (701/0 both gates):
- abi(.compiler) ABI replaces abi(.zig) extern compiler + the fake
#library "compiler"; bodiless decl = compiler-API surface, bodied =
user compiler-domain fn (lowered for VM eval, emit-skipped).
- out is a plain sx fn (libc write) — the out builtin deleted; the VM
handles it via host-FFI. trace_resolve + interp_print_frames ported.
- 4B VM-native diagnostics: 1179/1180 render proper comptime type
construction failed: under strict.
- S5a: build_options/set_post_link_callback on abi(.compiler) with
BuildConfig threaded into the VM (green intermediate).
- 0522 fixed (describe(args: []Type)); regression 0638.
Strict deletion-gate down to 4 compiler_call bails (1609/1614/1615/1616)
+ 1654 (legitimate unresolvable-symbol diagnostic).
Surface rename of the signed integer family: s1..s64 become i1..i64
(u1..u64, usize, isize unchanged). 'string' keeps the s-prefix arm in
name classification; width parsing moves to the i-prefix arm next to
isize.
Internal TypeId tags follow the surface (.s8/.s16/.s32/.s64 ->
.i8/.i16/.i32/.i64), as do mono-key mangle fragments (ptr_i64,
tu_i64_bool) and all display/diagnostic formatting (i{d}).
Migrated in the same sweep: stdlib + examples + issue repros + FFI C
companions (shared symbol names like ffi_id_i64), expected
stdout/stderr/ir snapshots, specs.md, readme.md, CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md,
implementation_plan.md, docs/, issue writeups. Vendored stb_image and
historical flow state left untouched.
zig build test: 426/426; examples suite: 595/595.
Rename all example tests/companions to the XXXX-category-test-name scheme
(per-category 100-blocks: basic 0010, types 0100, ... errors 1000,
diagnostics 1100, ffi 1200, ffi-objc 1300, ffi-jni 1400, vectors 1500,
platform 1600). Companions and dir/C fixtures move in lockstep with their
parent test; #import/#source/#include paths rewritten to match.
Expected output now lives in examples/expected/ (a sibling dir of the
tests) split into three streams per the new convention:
<name>.exit / <name>.stdout / <name>.stderr (+ optional <name>.ir)
run_examples.sh rewritten: scans examples/ and issues/ for an
expected/<name>.exit marker, captures stdout and stderr separately (no
more 2>&1), compares each stream + exit + optional IR snapshot.
Behavior validated unchanged: every renamed test reproduces its prior
merged output + exit (diffs limited to file paths/basenames embedded in
diagnostics + traces, which correctly reflect the new names). Suite:
292 passed, 0 failed. 50-smoke.sx split + issue relocation + docs follow
in subsequent commits.
