* Expand static compilation for common Effect 4 patterns
* Run every Effect 4 fixture slice in CI
* Preserve existing corpus behavior across Effect 4 lowering
* Preserve Effect platform callbacks and native stream state
* Record new corpus baselines and retain child stdin refusals
* Retire the obsolete stateful regex diagnostic
* Preserve promise reference count layout for cycle collection
* Make native installs portable and smaller
- Support glibc 2.34 with portable compiler binaries and static LLVM helpers.
- Bundle the host runtime and discover optional cross-target packs from project dependencies.
- Add application build benchmarks covering latency, executable size, and memory.
* Keep bootstrap tools available in Sandbox validation
- Isolate Zig for native compiler bootstrap and glibc entropy contracts.
- Preserve the existing toolchain scope for cache and corpus tests.
* Fix portable compiler bootstrap linking
- Keep native support objects compatible with the destination host linker.
- Resolve installed targets using the host declared by the toolchain manifest.
- Compile Three.js capsule, sphere, and ray collision queries for native and WebAssembly targets.
- Preserve JavaScript constructor results, shared arrays, and nullable class fields.
- Resolve static methods against their exact class receivers.
* feat: ship the self-hosted native scriptc CLI
- Run the shared compiler and CLI natively, including library builds and compile-time evaluation.
- Install native platform packages and ship relocatable standalone distributions.
- Preserve program semantics and reuse validated build artifacts for fast rebuilds.
* fix: complete native CLI integration and validation
- Preserve library diagnostics and run recursive compiler work on the main stack.
- Restore packaged helper permissions and exercise native npm and Wasm library builds.
- Recover interrupted Sandbox status probes within the original command deadline.
- Run published three.js vector, matrix, and quaternion operations natively and as Wasm without a JavaScript engine.
- Preserve shared class prototype data and JavaScript overload arguments.
- Support Math function values and distinct npm import and require entries.
- 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.
* Enable initial static compilation of published Effect modules
- Compile the published Effect Function subpath and deeper npm module chains as static program code.
- Preserve JavaScript argument and string search behavior across native backends, with differential coverage.
* Prune unused static npm namespace re-exports
- Honor package sideEffects metadata across nested ESM scopes and pure dependencies.
- Keep preflight, linking, and initialization consistent, with Node differential coverage.
* Fix static npm pruning across dependency cycles
- Make package purity caching safe across dependency cycles.
- Cover transitive module initialization with a Node differential fixture.
* 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.
