nrepl-test was CI's only failure: the server subprocess ran main.janet from
source, paying the full compile-mode init, which outran the 5s connect poll
on slow runners (locally it always won the race). The test now prefers
build/jolt — its ctx is baked at build time, so it accepts in ~20ms and CI
builds it anyway — falls back to source, polls up to 60s under a 90s
watchdog, and dumps the server's stderr when startup fails so the next CI
failure is diagnosable.
CLAUDE.md's placeholder sections become real: build/test commands with the
run-the-gate-with-a-real-exit-code protocol (a piped gate once shipped masked
spec failures), the seed/overlay/tier architecture sketch, and the porting
gotchas that have each bitten at least once (leaf verification, stub-breaks-
self-recursion, tier macro ordering, ref-get vs get on attached-ops wrappers,
:jolt/type map keys, expander-called fns, canonical-port policy) — previously
only in local bd memories.
adds self-hosted compiler is functionally:
- The default compile path is the portable pipeline using jolt.analyzer (Clojure) → host-neutral IR → backend.janet.
- The analyzer is itself Clojure, compiled by jolt for true self-hosting.
- bootstrap-fixpoint passes (stage1 == stage2 == stage3): rebuilding the compiler on its own output.
- clojure.core is now self-hosted in the overlay.
- Stateful forms (defmacro/ns/deftype/defmulti/require/in-ns) are interpreted by design.
Remove agent/dev tooling and scratch files that aren't part of the published
project:
- .beads/ (issue tracker) and .clj-kondo/ (linter cache) — now gitignored
- AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, PLAN.md (agent/planning docs)
- root scratch scripts: fix-core.janet, preprocess.janet, and the loose
test-*.janet probes (the real tests live under test/)
- clojure-features.clj — its features are already covered by
test/integration/features-test.janet (dropped the optional smoke-test block)
The repo now tracks only: src/ (interpreter + clojure.core.async + stdlib),
test/ (spec/integration/unit), doc/grammar.ebnf, README, LICENSE, project.janet,
and the vendor/sci submodule. jpm test green.
