A field declared '@frame run: fn(...)' makes every function stored in it a frame root, as a System's
tick is. @alloc_ok("why") before a statement takes that statement out of frame_allocs and makes what
it allocates declared at run time; a function holding one keeps the fence's scope depth and puts it
back at its return, so a return inside the statement cannot leave the scope open. @alloc_ok above
'export function' was lost - export parses the declaration one call down - and is now carried to it.

A local bound straight from another module's global (let t =
thing_cur), or from such a local, is followed within its function, and
a write through its field or element is listed as a warning after the
counted writes. A reference from a function's result is not followed.
Reseed.

With LUDIC_DEPS=<file> the compiler records every reference the
visibility pass resolves (from module, to module) and every assignment
to another module's global. ludic deps prints the modules,
dependencies, largest cycle, cross writes and globals written from
outside, with --graph, --dot, --writes, --uses MOD, --check FILE and
--baseline FILE. Reseed.

The typed buffers are slices: words/floats/fixeds/doubles/pointers(n) make
zeroed, bounds-checked []int/[]float/... and the type names mean them. buffer(n)
is a []byte, with text_of, Fs.read_bytes/write_bytes and view(xs, start, n).
bytes(), indexing a raw pointer or bytes, free, resize, Memory.*, raw file calls,
data_of and C externs are refused outside unsafe { } / unsafe function, and a
project's own files may write unsafe only with --unsafe; the runtime and packages
are the platform. A slice passed to an extern goes as its data.
What the change found: Sync's atomics on a slice header, words(n) uninitialised,
input's fixed axes in ints, truetype's fixed outlines as ints, skin matrices
typed int, gl_shader's source table made from raw bytes. render3d gets safe
entry points (safe_api.ludic). Rendering is byte-identical; a frame costs the same.

selfhost/check/ walks every function, the entry, tests, globals' initializers and
@On listeners with real scopes, and refuses mixed number kinds, text and numbers,
two record types, mismatched slices and fn types, wrong argument counts, wrong
returns and wrong push elements - every mix-up at once, each at its line.
LUDIC_CHECK_REPORT=1 lists them by category. pointer stays untyped (L7's).
What it found is fixed: render3d's HDR scan calling the float-bits extern f_lt
with floats; ludic.shooter's right-stick aim overflowing past half a push;
prof.ludic storing longs in []int; extern arguments now coerced to their
parameters. Text-returning runtime functions say string; Assets.ready says bool.

A barrel's 'module NAME' makes its directory a module; a declaration other modules
use says 'export'. Private use from another module is an error naming the module
and where to mark it; 'friend module' sees everything (a test harness); a file in
no module is public and a package keeps its own module. LUDIC_VIS_REPORT=1 lists
every violation instead of stopping, so a codebase can be given its exports first.

L1. Two vars, consts, enums, properties or events of one name in a program are an error naming
both places (functions already were); the first used to win silently. A let / var of a name its
own block already declared is an error (it used to shadow). A function with a result type whose
body can reach its end without a return is an error, asked structurally of the body - a return,
an if/else or a match with a default arm whose every branch ends - rather than handing back
whatever the result slot held. The game, the lab and every package example pass all three;
the lab had one harmless shadow, and the game's split screens had two real bugs of the kind.
examples/rejected/ holds the four refusals, checked by the test runner's new reject_case.
Seed regenerated.

Text.to_float reads a leading decimal number (strtod), the twin of Text.to_int, for data files.
A return with a value in a function that returns nothing now says so where it is, instead of
reaching clang as 'store void'. Seed regenerated.

Listeners are compiled into one @ev_<E> function and return branched to its exit, so every
listener declared after one that returned early - and every foreign listener - never heard
the event. The per-kind listener shape (return unless it is my kind) answered only the
first-declared kind. examples/events/answer.ludic holds it; seed regenerated.

`float` (32-bit) and `double` (64-bit) with + - * / %, comparisons and unary minus.
Decimal literals take their type from context and stay `fixed` elsewhere; int and long
promote implicitly (LUDIC_WARN_FLOAT_PROMOTE=1 lists every promotion). float(), double(),
int(), long() and fixed() convert; floats(n)/doubles(n) buffers; float fields, globals,
constants and parameters; Math.* computes in float for float arguments; string/print
write the shortest round-tripping decimal; float_bits/float_from_bits expose the bits.
@deterministic code may not use floats. The f_* runtime helpers stay as they are.
Editors know the new type words; the JetBrains plugin is 1.5.0.

- `[a, b, c]` list literals (E_LIST → emit_list); static_type learns
slice-element, `new T`, list, string and literal kinds
- `x op= y` lowers through the same path as `x = x op y` (emit_bin_vals):
fixed `*=`/`/=` use the Q16.16 64-bit paths, string `+=` concatenates,
int→long widens; unary `-` keeps a fixed operand's type (arith_ty)
- one `unescape()` table for "strings", 'chars' and `interpolation`;
`'\''`, `'\\'`, `'\"'` no longer read as 0; unterminated char literals
and unexpected characters are errors instead of silently skipped
- every diagnostic is `file:line: error: msg` (g_parse_file / g_err_file,
Node.file + Node.line set by node()); tok_desc() in expectation errors;
duplicate `function` names and unknown `phase` names are reported in
source terms (phase_id used to default unknown phases to Overlay)
- interpolation holes skip braces inside string literals
- hand-IR preludes move from the user `@fn_` prefix to `@lp_` so a user
`is_ws` / `str_eq` / `path_join` no longer collides at link time
- `@ClearColor(expr)` accepts any constant expression; `Os.pid()` added
(docs page + inventory); `str_starts()` in support/str
- main.ludic: `else if` flag ladder, char literals, stale script comments
- examples/lang/operators.ludic covers all of the above; os.ludic covers
Os.pid; docs pages for Os.pid and the Overlay phase; ten changesets
- reseeded: selfhost/ludicc.seed.ll is the new compiler's own fixpoint

Extend `enum` from named int constants to a tagged union: a variant may
carry a payload (`enum Tile { Empty, Wall, Door(int), Portal(int, int) }`).
Such enums box to a heap record (an i32 tag at offset 0, then one 8-byte
slot per payload position); an all-bare enum keeps its zero-cost compile-
time-ordinal representation, byte-for-byte unchanged (every golden render
and the bootstrap fixpoint still hold).
- Parser: variant payload declarations, stored as N_PARAM kids on the
variant node.
- Construction: by name — `Door(3)`, `Portal(x, y)`, bare `Empty` — resolved
ahead of the function-call fallback and boxed with the payloads coerced to
their declared types.
- match: destructures a tagged scrutinee, switching on the tag and binding
each arm's payload names in a scoped local frame.
- Checking pass: a tagged `match` must be exhaustive (cover every variant or
end in `_`), and constructor/pattern arities and binding forms are checked
— all reported where the scrutinee's type is known.
Adds selfhost/tests/enums.ludic to the regression suite and documents the
feature in LANGUAGE.md and the enum/match pages.

Instrument each emitted statement with a per-source-line hit counter, gated
behind a new --coverage flag (default off) so ordinary builds — and the
compiler's own self-compile — stay byte-identical and the C-free bootstrap
fixpoint is untouched. A static line table plus a parallel hit-counter array
are dumped at exit through an atexit hook to $LUDIC_COVERAGE (default
ludic.cov) as a `FILE <name>` header and `<line> <hits>` rows.
bin/x test --coverage compiles the test specs with instrumentation, runs them
into per-file dumps, and aggregates a clean per-file line-coverage report that
names the unreached lines. Adds examples/library/coverage.ludic (a spec whose
tests deliberately miss one branch) and docs. Closes the last open acceptance
item of the testing framework (#12).

Split the flat 38-file selfhost/ into concern-based subdirectories:
frontend/ lex, parse, parse_game, ast
support/ str, buf, io
backend/ core IR + expression/statement lowering
backend/game/ ECS/scene/event/world lowering
backend/stdlib/ the namespaced Math.*/Text.*/Crypto.*/… intrinsics
and split the three oversized emitters at responsibility boundaries so
no file mixes concerns:
emit_game.ludic -> + emit_world.ludic (reflection world table,
tick helpers, @main synthesis)
emit_expr.ludic -> + emit_call.ludic (namespaced builtins, call
lowering, expr dispatch)
emit_text.ludic -> + emit_text_prelude.ludic (emitted string-builder runtime)
FRAGS in tools/x/selfhost.ludic is updated to the new paths with the link
order preserved, and the Python doc/vocabulary tooling is updated to walk
the new layout. Because the build is a plain in-order concatenation and
every split lands on a blank-line boundary, the regenerated seed is
byte-identical: `x reseed` leaves selfhost/ludicc.seed.ll unchanged,
`x bootstrap-cfree` still reaches its fixed point, and both `x test` (56)
and `x selfhost-test` (29, incl. golden renders) stay green.
Closes#29
