Rename src/jolt -> stdlib (the runtime-loaded layer; jolt-core stays the
seed-baked layer) and update the loader / emit-image / doc paths. Drop dead
code: the spike/ experiments, the duplicate clojuredocs-export.edn (json moves
to tools/), the Janet-era jolt.http binding, and the orphaned
persistent_vector.clj whose ns/path didn't even match.
Strip porting residue from comments and docstrings across host/chez, jolt-core,
stdlib, tests, and docs: internal issue ids, "Phase N" markers, and the "vs
Janet" historical exposition, leaving present-tense descriptions and the real
JVM-Clojure semantic contrasts. Same pass over the corpus suite labels. The seed
is unchanged (docstrings/comments aren't emitted), so the self-host fixpoint and
corpus are untouched.
Port tools/spec_coverage.py off the dead janet probe to bin/joltc and regenerate
coverage.md; drop the dead :host/janet rule from certify.clj and regenerate the
conformance profile. Add docs/host-interop.md (the JVM shims and how to register
your own host class from a library) and a writing-style note in CLAUDE.md.
Stabilize the four racy concurrency corpus cases (future-cancel and agent
send/send-off): give the future a sleeping body and the agent a slow action, so
cancel reliably catches an in-flight future and deref reliably reads the
pre-update snapshot. They certify deterministically now, so drop their :flaky
allowlist entries and the orphaned legend.
Bring the docs in line with the actual implementation now that Chez is the sole
substrate.
Deleted the migration/spike/handoff artifacts that only documented the Janet
era or the port effort: the port plan, phase-0 and foundational-runtime spike
writeups (+ the stray root-level copy), the self-hosting design notes, the
architecture-refactor plan, and spike/chez/RESULTS.md.
Rewrote the current reference docs against the Chez facts: building-and-deps and
tools-deps (no jpm/build step — bin/joltc off the checked-in seed, deps via
jolt.deps into ~/.jolt/gitlibs), libraries (SQLite is built-in jdbc.core over
libsqlite3, not a Janet driver), the conformance/spec test-flow docs (the Chez
corpus runner + certify, no .janet harnesses), and the transient / type-hint /
seed-overlay design notes (Chez representations: mutable transients, flat
copy-on-write vectors, HAMT maps, the seed/overlay twin). Fixed the README
collections line (vectors aren't 32-way tries) and added the ffi/transient gate
targets. rfc 0001's numerics open-question is resolved (the Scheme tower).
Renamed the built-in HTTP adapter to jolt.http.server only (dropped the
ring-janet.adapter alias — a Janet-era name).
RFC 0001 proposes a normative, implementation-independent Clojure language
spec (the reader, evaluation model, special forms, data types, seq/laziness
contracts, namespaces/vars, and the portable clojure.core surface) to the
standard of R7RS/Racket — Clojure has none, and every alternative
implementation re-derives semantics from the reference and folklore. The
spec is executable-first: every numbered normative statement cites its
conformance test or is marked UNVERIFIED.
docs/spec/ carries the front matter (conformance terms, entry format, host
classification), the special-form catalog with worked normative entries for
if and let*, the core-library entry format with worked entries for first,
reduce, and parse-uuid, and a generated coverage dashboard over the 694-var
ClojureDocs inventory (tools/spec_coverage.py cross-references the surface
against jolt's interned+resolvable vars and the test suites).
Measured baseline: 380 implemented+tested, 154 implemented-untested, 35
portable-but-missing (filed), 22 resolvable-but-not-interned (filed — seed
fns invisible to resolve/ns-publics), rest classified host/JVM/concurrency.
