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.
jolt no longer satisfies :clj in reader conditionals. The shortcut was a
measured net liability: :clj branches carry JVM interop and JVM-specific
test expectations jolt fails, and they shadowed :default branches jolt
passes. A/B over the suite: clj,default = 4967 assertions / 4324 pass / 119
errors; jolt,default = 5069 / 4470 / 81 (+146 pass, -38 errors, +8 clean
files). Baselines raised to 4470/86.
Matching is now by CLAUSE order like Clojure — the first clause whose key is
in the feature set wins (#?(:default 5 :clj 6) is 5 everywhere); the old code
scanned for :clj first, then :default, regardless of position.
Foreign clj-targeted libraries are a property of the LOADING CONTEXT, not the
platform: reader-features-set! opts a load into a compatibility set, and the
SCI bootstrap/runtime tests load SCI under ["jolt" "clj" "default"] (its
.cljc selects implementations via :clj with no :jolt branches).
JOLT_FEATURES remains the process-wide override.
RFC 0002 records the decision with the measured data; spec 02-reader S18 is
now normative (clause order, documented feature set, per-context override).
Reader tests updated to the portable set + an opt-in round-trip.
