A `test "name" { ... }` top-level block is discovered automatically and run by a
synthetic runner @main — no `entry` to write, nothing to register. Inside a test,
expect(cond) / expect_eq(a, b) / expect_near(a, b, tol) assert; on failure they
print `file:line: <what> failed (got G, want W)` and set a per-test fail flag but
keep going, so one run reports every failure. The runner prints `ok - name` /
`FAIL - name` per test, a `== N passed, M failed ==` summary, and exits non-zero
if any test failed — so `ludic spec_test.ludic` drops straight into bin/x and CI.
expect_near carries the tolerance fixed-point / accumulated-integer game math need.
Frontend: new `test` keyword (parse_test -> N_TEST, collected in g_tests) and the
call node now carries its source line for the file:line messages. Backend:
emit_test_runner synthesises @fn__test_i bodies + the runner @main; the expect*
builtins lower to a branch-print-flag tail (emit_expect_fail). g_src_name (set in
main from the input path) supplies the filename. The compiler's own source has no
`test` blocks, so its self-compiled IR is unchanged and the C-free fixpoint holds.
- `test` wired into the vocabulary (ludic_syntax.h, JetBrains lexer, TextMate
grammar) and documented (docs/language/testing/)
- examples/library/testing.ludic: a passing spec, guarded by a new spec_case in
the regression suite (build, run, require exit 0 + the expected summary)
Coverage instrumentation (the biggest lift in #12) is left as a follow-up.

A software light pass over the framebuffer, run in a render phase after drawing
the scene: Light.ambient multiplies the scene toward a tint (night/cave mood),
Light.point additively accumulates a radial glow with linear falloff clamped per
channel, and Light.occlude / Light.clear_occluders cast hard shadows by blocking
a light's rays against rectangular occluders. Integer + Q16.16 fixed throughout,
so a scene lights identically every run and in a headless render (diffable).
Engine in runtime/native/light.ludic, spliced on demand (g_uses_light) like the
regex/query runtimes; namespace wired in emit_call.ludic. Ships issue #4 tiers 1
(ambient + additive radial lights) and 2 (hard shadows). Normal-mapped sprites,
soft shadows, a day/night directional light, and auto-consuming Light2D/Occluder
components are follow-ups (the auto-system hook is tracked by #43).
- runtime/native/light.ludic: the light-accumulation engine (isqrt falloff,
segment/occluder shadow test, ambient modulate)
- examples/library/lighting.ludic: 14 pixel-readback assertions
- docs/language/light/: Light.ambient/point/occlude/clear_occluders
- tools/x/test.ludic: lighting.ludic in the regression suite

The project had no versioning discipline: 0 tags, no CHANGELOG, no way for the
compiler to report a version. Add a lightweight, native release flow.
- Versioning: SemVer, with VERSION as the single source of truth. `ludicc
--version` (and `ludic --version`) read it at runtime — so a bump touches one
file and never reseeds the compiler. `x version` reports it too.
- Changesets: one small Markdown file per user-facing change under changes/
(bump level + type + summary; see changes/README.md). This replaces "remember
to edit the changelog" with a mergeable artifact, no Node changeset tool.
- `x release [major|minor|patch] [--publish]`: fold the pending changesets into a
new CHANGELOG.md section (grouped by type), bump VERSION, commit, and tag
vX.Y.Z. The level defaults to the highest changeset bump. `--publish` also
pushes and creates the Forgejo release with source + toolchain tarballs;
tools/ci/forgejo_release.py is the small stdlib-Python HTTP glue for the
release API (a native Http client is issue #6).
Seed the initial changesets describing the shipped surface; the first `x release`
turns them into the v0.1.0 CHANGELOG. Reseeded for the --version flag; C-free
bootstrap fixpoint holds; suites 56 / 29 / 29 on macOS, 51 / 28 (+skips) on Linux
CI, bootstrap-cfree byte-identical on both.
Part of the repository-cleanup / DX pass (with #32, #34).
