A const reference lowered to `val(itoa(g.a.ival), "int")` in emit_call.ludic —
the initializer's raw integer bits, hardcoded as `int`. For a fixed const like
`const X: fixed = 10.0` that yielded the Q16.16 bits (655360) typed as int, so
every fixed comparison/arithmetic against it silently broke (it caused an
infinite loop in runtime/native/numeric.ludic, previously worked around with
inline literals).
Fix: a const reference now emits its initializer expression via emit_expr(g.a),
which carries the initializer's real type (E_FLOAT->fixed, E_BOOL->bool,
E_STR->string) and even handles computed initializers. Every existing const is
an int literal, for which this is byte-identical to the old immediate — the
C-free bootstrap fixpoint and all golden renders are unchanged.
- selfhost/tests/const.ludic + sh_case pin fixed/int/bool const behaviour.
- runtime/native/numeric.ludic restored to named fixed consts (HUGE_TEN etc.),
which the workaround had inlined; the numeric example (20 assertions) still
passes, validating the fix under runtime splice.
All suites green: x selfhost-test 31/31 (fixpoint holds, goldens byte-identical),
x test 85/85, x test-tools 30/30.

Phase 1 of the fuller type-system proposal: two by-value spatial types
that lower to packed integers (no heap, copy like scalars).
- IVec2 — integer 2D vector, a pair of int packed into one i64, for tile
and grid coordinates: make/zero/x/y/add/sub/scale/dot, the grid distance
manhattan, equal, and to_vector (widen into the fixed-point Vector).
- Rect — axis-aligned rectangle, four Q16.16 fixed components packed into
one i128, for HUD boxes and hitboxes: make/x/y/w/h, the derived
right/bottom/center, and the contains (point) / intersects (overlap) tests.
Both are exact and deterministic, bit-identical on every platform. Vector
and Color already cover phase 1's other 2D primitives.
Wired end to end: emit_core llty (IVec2->i64, Rect->i128), emit_call
dispatch, the FRAGS list + reseeded seed, a selfhost test (types2d),
per-symbol docs + type pages + inventory, and the vocabulary/editor sync
(header, JetBrains, TextMate, LSP).

`System.*` and the newer `Os.*` (added in #21) both covered the environment
around the game, with four members (`arg`, `arg_count`, `env`, `exit`) lowering
byte-for-byte identically and the standard streams overlapping in concern. That
is a user-facing ambiguity (`System.env` vs `Os.env` are indistinguishable) and
a drift hazard (two copy-pasted codegen paths).
Make `Os.*` the single canonical environment/process namespace and retire the
overlapping `System.*` members:
- Remove `System.{arg, arg_count, env, exit, stdout, stderr}` from the namespace
dispatch (selfhost/emit_expr.ludic). Use `Os.arg`/`Os.arg_count`/`Os.env`/
`Os.exit` and `Os.stdout_write`/`Os.stderr_write` instead.
- `System.*` now covers only its unique low-level surface: the raw file handles
(`file_open/read/write/seek/tell/close`), `read_char`, and `run`.
- The bare `arg`/`exit`/`getenv`/`file_stdout`/`file_stderr` intrinsics stay —
they are the primitive layer the self-hosted compiler itself uses; only the
redundant *namespaced* sugar is gone.
- Docs: drop the six retired `docs/language/system/*` pages, retune the section
blurb, update inventory.json and the LSP signature table.
- Secondary finding from the issue: cross-link `Text.upper`/`Text.lower`
(ASCII-only) to `Unicode.upper`/`Unicode.lower` (full Unicode case mapping).
Reseeded; C-free bootstrap fixpoint holds. All suites green (56 test / 29
selfhost / 29 test-tools); docs cover every implemented feature (291 ns-methods).

The security-sensitive counterpart to the fast, non-cryptographic Hash.*
library: standard, test-vector-backed hashing for signed saves and message
integrity, kept in its own namespace so nobody reaches for the wrong tool.
Crypto.sha256(s) SHA-256 -> 64-char lowercase hex
Crypto.hmac_sha256(key, msg) HMAC-SHA256 -> 64-char hex
Crypto.verify_hmac(key, msg, mac) recompute + constant-time compare -> bool
Crypto.hex(s) lowercase hex of a string's bytes
Crypto.ct_equal(a, b) constant-time string equality
The primitives are implemented from scratch in plain integer LLVM IR
(FIPS 180-4 / RFC 2104): no libc crypto, no data-dependent branches in the
compression rounds, so a given input hashes to the same 32 bytes on every
platform and run. Digests are returned as hex strings, not raw bytes, because
a `str` is null-terminated and a raw digest can contain a NUL. MAC checks use
a non-short-circuiting compare so timing does not leak how much of a forged tag
was correct.
Emitted on demand via g_uses_cryptort, mirroring the emit_hash prelude gate.
Scoped to the deterministic, known-answer-testable core; OS-backed
random_bytes (the one piece that can't be validated by test vectors) is left
for a follow-up.
Tested against published SHA-256 vectors (empty/"abc"/fox + 55/56/64-byte
multi-block padding) and HMAC-SHA256 vectors; wired into the self-host suite as
`crypto`. Docs: a new Crypto section with honest "what this protects / does
not" guidance, one page per method, all fences checked and in the inventory.

Grow List sorting from a numeric-only insertion sort into a small,
game-friendly toolkit that sorts records and query results by a key or a
full comparator, stably and in O(n log n).
- List.sort_by(s, keyfn) ascending by a key (draw order, price)
- List.sort_desc_by(s, keyfn) descending (leaderboards)
- List.sort_with(s, cmpfn) full cmp(a,b)->int comparator (multi-field)
Comparators/keys are passed as named top-level functions rather than
lambdas, so the toolkit ships without waiting on closures (#1).
Engine: a stable bottom-up merge sort. emit_takeright is the single
place stability is decided ("take the right run's head only on a strict
win" -> equal keys keep prior order). List.sort becomes a hybrid:
insertion sort for n<32, merge sort above; both stable, so output is
unchanged. Key functions must return an integer-ish type; record slices
hold pointer elements, so the key/comparator receives the record pointer.
Tests: selfhost/tests/sort.ludic (scalar large-n, sort_by, sort_desc_by,
stability, sort_with). Docs: list-sort_by/desc_by/with + updated
list-sort. All suites green (28 self-host / 46 test / 29 test-tools);
reseeded, C-free bootstrap fixpoint holds.

Finish issue #9 by adding the two remaining acceptance items on top of the
calendar/clock core, still pure-integer and deterministic:
DateTime.format(dt, pattern) -> string render an instant via a token
pattern (YYYY/YY/MM/DD/HH/mm/ss;
other chars pass through)
DateTime.parse(text, pattern) -> int read an instant back; -1 on a
non-digit where one is expected
Clock.now/set/advance/reset a game-controlled simulated clock
(the @L_clock global) that never
touches the wall clock, so gameplay
reading Clock.now() is replay-safe
format/parse take a string-LITERAL pattern and are expanded at compile time
(field offsets are then constant), folding @fn_str_concat over literal runs and
two small runtime helpers: @fn_dt_pad0 (zero-padded field) and @fn_dt_rd
(fixed-width digit reader that stops at the terminator and flags malformed
input). Clock is a universal i32 global declared in emit_head, so it works in
entry and game programs alike.
Adds examples/offline_rewards.ludic — the issue's worked "you were away N hours"
example, driven from its own entry and asserted in the regression suite — plus
selfhost/tests/datetime2.ludic (format/parse round-trip, parse failure, clock),
docs (Clock section + 4 pages, DateTime.format/parse pages), inventory and LSP
hover. Reseeded; C-free fixpoint holds; all suites green (27 self-host / 46
regression / 29 tools); check.py (366 symbols), check-impl.py (218 ns-methods)
and validate.py OK.
With this, #9's scope is fully delivered: DateTime/Date/Duration + core ops,
format/parse, a deterministic simulated clock, docs + offline-rewards example,
and tests. (v1 stays UTC-only, no leap seconds, i32 epoch valid through 2038.)

Implement the calendar/clock half of #9 as plain-i32 integer epochs — no
new type, no floating point (the issue's "integer epochs to avoid drift") —
so every operation is deterministic and bit-identical on every platform:
Duration — a span in whole seconds; seconds/minutes/hours/days build one,
as_seconds/as_minutes/as_hours/as_days read it back. Because a
duration is just an int, `+` and `>` work with no extra machinery
(Duration.minutes(5) + Duration.seconds(30), away > Duration.hours(3)).
Date — a civil day as days-since-1970 (UTC): new/year/month/day/weekday/
is_leap/days_in_month/to_epoch/add_days/diff_days.
DateTime — an instant as seconds-since-1970 (UTC, matching Time.now):
from/date/add/year/month/day/weekday/hour/minute/second.
Time.since(past) = now - past, for offline-progress / "time away" checks.
New selfhost/emit_datetime.ludic (is_/emit_ for the three namespaces, wired
into emit_ns_call + the frag list). The two civil<->epoch conversions are
Howard Hinnant's public-domain proleptic-Gregorian algorithms, emitted once
per program as the @fn_days_from_civil / @fn_civil_from_days prelude and gated
by g_uses_datert; days_in_month is next-month-day-0 (no lookup table). Time
gains `since`. Docs (Duration/Date/DateTime sections, 28 method pages +
time-since), inventory, and LSP hover kept in sync; a registered test checks
component math against hand-computed values. Reseeded; C-free fixpoint holds;
all suites green (26 self-host / 45 regression / 29 tools); check.py,
check-impl.py and validate.py OK.
format/parse, a game-controlled simulated clock, and timezones are tracked

Implement the Vec.* half of #25 under the proper (de-abbreviated) name
Vector, unblocking it with a self-contained value type instead of waiting
on the full #1 type system.
A Vector is two Q16.16 fixed components (x, y) packed into one i64 — a true
by-value type that lives in a register and never allocates (reuses the new
`long`/i64 support; llty maps `Vector` to i64). Fifteen operations, all
deterministic fixed-point reusing fx_mul/fx_div/fx_lerp and the @fn_fx_*
prelude: make/zero/x/y, add/sub/scale/dot, length/distance/normalize/lerp,
rotate/angle/from_angle.
New selfhost/emit_vector.ludic (wired into emit_ns_call + the frag list),
the `Vector` primitive type in llty and the grammars/LSP/JetBrains tokens,
docs (type-vector + 15 Vector.* pages + section), and a registered test.

fx(i) -> fixed -> fixed(i) -> fixed (int -> fixed; mirrors how the

Expand the abbreviated string type and its conversion builtin to the full
word everywhere:
str -> string (the immutable-string type)
str(x) -> str -> string(x) -> string (the stringify builtin;
what `{…}` interpolation calls)
Types are recognized by identifier, and llty maps both spellings to LLVM
`ptr`, so this is an atomic source rewrite: type annotations, the Ludic
type tags, the builtin name/dispatch, and the interpolation desugar, plus
the grammars, LSP, docs (type-str -> type-string, fn-str -> fn-string), and
inventory. int/bool stay (universally accepted, like Math).

Expand the function-declaration keyword to the full word across the whole
language and toolchain:
fn name(...) -> T { ... } -> function name(...) -> T { ... }
Done as a self-hosting migration: teach the parser both spellings, reseed,
rewrite every .ludic definition to `function`, then drop `fn`. The compiler
now rejects `fn`. Touches the parser, all selfhost/tools/runtime/example/test
sources, the grammars (TextMate shared+vscode, ludic_syntax.h, JetBrains
LudicTokens.kt), the LSP and formatter, the Python doc/vocab tools
(check-impl, check-docs, validate, palette, test-lsp), and the docs
(fences, prose, kw-fn -> kw-function).

Finish the unblocked "Math / Ease" half of #25: the fixed-point
transcendentals deferred from #2. Vec.* stays blocked on the vec2 type
in #1.
- Math.exp, Math.log (natural), Math.pow — deterministic Q16.16 via two
new prelude fns in emit_math_prelude: @fn_fx_exp2 (range-reduced 5th-order
Taylor 2^f, then a clamped shift by the integer part) and @fn_fx_log2
(llvm.ctlz for the exponent + an atanh series on (m-1)/(m+1) for the
mantissa). exp=2^(x·log2 e), log=log2(x)·ln2, pow=2^(b·log2 a).
- Ease.elastic — ease-out elastic 2^(-10t)·sin((10t-0.75)·2pi/3)+1.
- Pure integer IR, so bit-identical on every platform. Results must fit the
Q16.16 range (|x| < 32768); larger magnitudes saturate (documented).
Test selfhost/tests/transcend.ludic (registered in the self-host suite) +

Implement the bulk of the namespaced-stdlib proposal (workshopsoft/ludic#2):
156 namespace methods across Math, Text, List, Ease, Collide, World, Net,
Sys, Save, Mem, extended Screen, Color functions, extended Random, and Time.
All deterministic fixed-point; self-hosting (C-free bootstrap fixpoint holds).
Compiler (selfhost/):
- Math.*: sqrt/sin/cos/tan/atan2/asin/acos (fixed-point runtime prelude —
bit-by-bit isqrt, 256-entry interpolated sine table, Ross atan2), plus
hypot/dist/dist2/deg_to_rad/rad_to_deg/posmod/wrap/ping_pong/snapped/
move_toward/smoothstep/lerp/remap/sign/floor/ceil/round.
- Text.* (complete): upper/lower/trim/repeat/pad, split/join/replace,
and the libc-backed queries.
- List.* (complete): insert/remove_at/remove/sort plus the earlier ops.
- Ease.* (in/out/in_out/back/bounce) and Collide.* (rects/point_rect/
circles/rect_circle).
- Phase 3: World/Net/Sys/Save namespaced over the bare builtins (byte-
identical IR) and Mem.* (bytes/words/copy/fill/peek/poke).
- Screen.* extended (line/circle/fill_circle/triangle/fill_triangle via new
runtime primitives; sprite/sprite_scaled aliases), Color.* functions,
Random.* (value/int/sign), Time.* (frame/delta/elapsed/now — new
game-loop frame counter).
- Fix a lexer bug: fixed-point literals with >4 fractional digits overflowed.
Docs & tooling:
- 129 new per-symbol doc pages; gen.py made data-driven (namespaces
discovered from the docs, no hardcoded list); new check-impl.py enforces
that every implemented namespace method / keyword / type / phase has a
doc page, wired into `x test-tools`. Document the previously-undocumented
keywords (break/continue/where/entry/new/public + and/or/not tokens).
- LSP: namespaced signature help (ns_method_sig) covering every namespace.
Tests: 12 new self-host/regression tests + a golden render for the drawing
primitives. All suites green (selfhost 21, regression 45, tools 29).

Allocation reads as intent, not malloc:
mem_alloc(64) -> bytes(64) (64 bytes -> a byte buffer)
mem_alloc(w * h * 4) -> words(w * h) (w*h 32-bit words)
bytes(n) mallocs n bytes and returns a plain pointer (byte-indexed); words(n)
mallocs n*4 bytes and returns a `words` pointer (int-indexed). Since words(X) and
mem_alloc(X*4) allocate the identical number of bytes, the migration cannot change
any allocation size — the `* 4` factor just moves from the argument into the
allocator name, pairing naturally with the Phase-7j `words` retyping
(`var fb: words = words(w * h)`).
Migrated 102 sites (mem_alloc(E*4) -> words(E), else bytes(E)); deleted the
mem_alloc intrinsic. mem_realloc/free/copy/set stay as the low-level
reallocation/free family. Reseeded (22565 lines); C-free fixpoint holds; goldens

32-bit word access is indexing now, not peek32/poke32:
peek32(ui_rx, i) -> ui_rx[i] (reads an int)
poke32(rt_fb, i, c) -> rt_fb[i] = c (writes an int)
A buffer typed `words` (a pointer whose elements are i32) indexes with `w[i]`
as a full int; a plain `ptr`/`str` keeps byte indexing. emit_index_addr picks the
element type from the base's type — byte-identical IR to the old intrinsics, so
the migration reproduces the compiler and every golden render exactly.
The ~60 word buffers (rt_fb, tt_*/gc_* font tables, png_px/spr_px pixels, ui_*
layout arrays) were retyped from `ptr` to `words` scope-aware (per-function, so
the s/out/p byte-vs-word name collisions across functions stay correct), then the
254 peek32/poke32 sites migrated to indexing. A scope-analysis miss left 12
buffers (gc_*, sc_d, ui_rx/ui_ry) un-retyped — caught as a menu golden diff and
fixed. No true mixed byte+word access exists on any one variable, so a per-buffer
element type is sound.

One `print` instead of two C-style names: `print(x)` writes an int OR a string
followed by a newline, dispatching on the operand type (int -> %d, string ->
%s). `print(int)` emits byte-identically to the old print_int, so every existing
call and every smoke-test output is unchanged.
print_str was only ever the raw IR-to-stdout dump in ir_flush (no newline), which
is not "printing a line" — so it now uses file_write to a new file_stdout()
stream, keeping the emitted IR byte-for-byte identical. That frees `print` to
have consistent always-newline semantics.
Two reseeds: (A) add print + str + file_stdout keeping the intrinsics; (B)
migrate the 61 print_int calls to print, ir_flush to file_write(file_stdout()),
and delete print_int/print_str (+ the now-dead @.fmt_str). str(x) (the
interpolation converter from 7d) is now also a documented standalone builtin.

First step of the "stop feeling like C" pass. Bitwise ops were functions
(`band(x, MASK)`, `shl(a, 3)`); they are now real operators:
band -> & bor -> | bxor -> ^ shl -> << shr -> >> bnot -> ~
Precedence is Go-style so the C footgun is gone: `<<`/`>>`/`&` bind like `*`,
`|`/`^` like `+`, both tighter than comparison — `flags & MASK == 0` parses as
`(flags & MASK) == 0`. `>>` is logical (lshr), matching the old `shr`.
Mechanics: lexer tokenizes `<< >> & | ^ ~`; p_mul takes `<< >> &`, p_add takes
`| ^`, p_unary takes `~`; emit_bin routes them through the existing int arith
path (arith_code gains and/or/xor/shl/lshr) and E_UN handles `~`. The six
intrinsics are deleted.
Delivered as two reseeds: (A) add the operators keeping the intrinsics, (B)
migrate every call site to operator form (85 lines across compiler + runtime,
via a balanced-paren call->operator script; two multi-line big-endian reads in
image/truetype done by hand) and delete the intrinsics. Vocabulary drops the six
from LUDIC_INTRINSICS (ludic_syntax.h, grammar, LudicTokens.kt) and the grammar
gains a bitwise-operator rule. LANGUAGE.md precedence table rewritten.

Bindings now signal mutability the way Rust/Swift do, instead of `let` meaning
"local" and `var` meaning "module-level":
- `let x = e` -> immutable binding; a later `x = …` is a compile error
(`cannot assign to immutable 'x' … use var`).
- `var x = e` -> mutable binding, at local OR module scope (position decides
scope; the keyword decides mutability).
- `const` -> unchanged (compile-time).
Immutability is of the *binding*, not the object: `let n = new Node; n.kind = 1`
is fine (mutation through the reference); only rebinding `n` is rejected. The
check lives in emit_assign — a direct `name =` whose target is a `let` local
(loc_mut == 0) errors; field/index targets and `var`/param/loop bindings are
unaffected.
Delivered as three reseeds so the self-hosting compiler never had to compile
source its own rules would reject:
A) add `var` as a local statement + per-local mutability tracking (loc_mut),
no enforcement;
B) migrate every reassigned `let` -> `var` across the compiler, runtime and
examples (337 declarations), driven by a per-function, string/comment-aware
scan (binding targets only, never `x.f =` / `x[i] =`);
C) turn on the check. bootstrap-cfree (compiler vs its own source) and every
golden build (which splices the runtime) then proved zero reassigned `let`
was missed anywhere.
Also folded in: removed leftover debug instrumentation in block() (a `cur=` /
print_int(777…) trace on the separator-error path) and fixed parse.ludic's stale
header comment (no more `struct`). Reseeded (21711 lines); C-free fixpoint holds;

`struct` and `property` had identical syntax and differed only in semantics, so
they are now one keyword: `property`. How a property is stored follows from how
it is used —
- listed in a `model` or attached by `spawn` -> an ECS component, kept in the
engine's per-entity @S_/@H_ arrays and bound in queries (as before);
- constructed with `new` -> a heap record with reference
semantics (what `struct` used to be).
A program that declares only `property` records and functions — no `model`, no
`handler` — is not an ECS program: it gets record layouts and `new`, but no
entity storage, allocator, snapshot, or runtime splice. This is exactly the
shape of the Ludic compiler itself, whose Node/Tok/Buf/Val are now `property`.
Mechanics:
- record layout (%Cmp_) now always emitted in the header (emit_head), so `new`
works with or without the ECS; the per-entity arrays stay in
emit_ecs_storage. %Str_ is gone — one layout prefix.
- has_ecs() is now `has_systems() or has_models()`, not "any component"; a
property alone no longer drags in the ECS runtime. Added has_models().
- emit_new / member access / layout_ty / layout_node collapse onto find_comp.
Dropped struct keyword, parse_struct, find_struct, is_struct_ty, N_STRUCT
emission (the const stays at kind 0, the default node kind).
Migration done as two reseeds (the old compiler treats any component as ECS, so
it cannot see `property` records in the compiler source until has_ecs is fixed):
A) teach the compiler property-as-record + fix has_ecs, keeping `struct`;
B) migrate the compiler's own records to `property` and remove `struct`.
selfhost/tests/structs.ludic migrated (still prints 7 9 109 2 42). Vocabulary

The parser now requires a newline or ';' between statements (block() in
selfhost/parse.ludic); two statements may no longer sit adjacent with only
spaces. Also fixed if-without-else swallowing its trailing separator.
Migration: tools/ludic-tools/migrate_separators.c inserts ';' at statement
