- Remove C emission, debugging options, and automatic backend fallback.
- Complete LLVM lowering and native bootstrap coverage across supported targets.
- Link executables and libraries with precompiled C runtime packs, including iOS and Android.
- Pin GNU runtime packs to glibc 2.36 Zig targets and reject incompatible imports.
- Provision verified Zig builds and exercise published artifacts on Debian Bookworm.

* Expand LLVM native output targets
- Add owned helper and runtime-pack contracts for macOS x64, Linux glibc/musl, Windows x64, and WASI.
- Generalize LLVM target selection, package validation, linker plans, and release/CI matrices.
- Document linker boundaries and add focused native-output and runtime-pack coverage.
* Pin Windows LLVM helper CI to VS 2022
The official LLVM archive needs the Visual Studio 2022 CMake generator, which is not guaranteed by windows-latest.
* Align bootstrap cache with LLVM runtime-pack builds
Use the same target-specific helper and linker identity before and after compiler loading so routed executable cache hits remain lightweight.
* Install Windows LLVM CI tools with Chocolatey
windows-2022 includes Visual Studio but not winget; use its available Chocolatey bootstrap for CMake and Ninja.
* Prevent Zig version probes from leaving runtime-pack objects
Run runtime-pack compiler version probes in a private temporary directory and remove the accidental tracked WASI a.o file.
* Use 7-Zip for Windows LLVM setup
Extract the official LLVM development archive with two-stage 7-Zip instead of Windows tar.exe, which timed out while materializing the toolchain tree.
* Define ssize_t for the MSVC runtime pack
Clang's MSVC target does not expose POSIX ssize_t through sys/types.h; define the pointer-sized runtime type without affecting MinGW.
* Build the Windows runtime pack with Zig
Use the MinGW-compatible Windows sysroot required by the runtime while retaining COFF helper output and installing Zig in the Windows native CI lane.
* Give macOS LLVM differential shard time to finish
Shard 1 passed its setup and focused contracts but was cancelled during its cold LLVM differential slice at the 20-minute job limit.
* Warn on non-null assertions
- Surface non-null assertions during linting without making them blocking.
- Preserve existing assertion sites for opportunistic cleanup.
* Classify internal compiler errors
- Export InternalCompilerError and migrate compiler invariant throws without changing messages.
- Rename the native cache test to match cc.ts and update test scheduling references.
- Document test placement by unit, package integration, and cross-package scope.
* Fix internal compiler error classification
- Retain representative Darwin kqueue coverage in the default gate.
- Schedule native runtime tests by host and make Linux clang invocations portable.
- Resolve canonical OCI manifest digests for direct and indexed images.
- RELEASING.md documents the lockstep three-package prepare flow and the marked-changelog convention
- CHANGELOG.md starts with an Unreleased section and the marked 0.0.1 entry that becomes the GitHub release body
- AGENTS.md states repo-wide build/test conventions and defers docs-site specifics to docs/AGENTS.md
- scripts/sync-versions.mjs stamps runtime and compiler from the CLI version; the workflow's sync check now hints at it
- release.yml gains a github-release job that tags v<version> after a successful publish, never gating npm
