The generic store keeps a native Error's code slot in step with writes
through its checked view, as it does for name, message, stack and cause,
so the store cache leaves `code` to it. The header invariant accepts
scr_js_*.test.c units, which link the dynamic tier.
Stage S3 of the two-tier design: dynamic-tier functions compute with
jsval, a new IR type holding a 64-bit NaN-boxed word whose numbers,
booleans, undefined and null are immediates, so a number between two
dynamic operators is no longer a heap node.
- IR: the jsval type and js.* builtins (operators and the boundary
conversions fromDyn/toDyn/fromF64/fromBool/fromStr/fromBigInt/toF64).
The jsval pass rewrites dynamic-tier functions after tier assignment:
operator chains, comparisons, number checks and truthiness of operator
results run on jsvals; dyn locals become jsval locals when that saves
boxing; dynamic functions called only from dynamic functions return a
jsval. IR version 17 serializes each function's tier.
- Runtime: scr_js.h and scr_js_value.c behind the dynTier feature
(invariant I3); static runtime units never include scr_js.h.
- Backend: number cases inline (immediate doubles and NUM cells), always
inlined jsval retain/release; 32-bit targets keep boxed cells.
- Interprocedural analyses see jsval conversions as the dyn forms they
replace, so no fact about a static function changes.
Static functions are untouched: typed programs and the self-hosted
compiler's static functions compile to byte-identical LLVM.

scr_runtime.h now includes 48 module headers (scr_core.h, scr_rc.h,
scr_string.h, scr_dyn.h, scr_http.h, ...) in dependency order and holds no
declarations. Each module header holds whole sections of the former file,
includes the headers whose names it uses, and compiles on its own.
Declarations, macros, struct layouts and inline bodies are unchanged. Five
blocks move to join their module: the class-hierarchy vtable header (into
scr_error.h, after the string core), the node:timers/promises pair (into
scr_async.h), the JSON.parse entry points and the JSON output buffer (into
scr_json.h, after the dyn declarations) and the EventTarget block (after
scr_json.h). No moved block uses or declares a name that a block it moves
past uses or declares. The string methods keep their position after the
class objects in scr_string_methods.h, because their struct ScrDyn
parameters rely on the file-scope struct ScrDyn declaration there.
The runtime ABI scan reads scr_runtime.h with its module headers expanded
in include order. A runtime test compiles every module header on its own.
scripts/runtime-header-hunks.mjs retargets a diff of the single-file
header onto the module headers.
