add-watch/remove-watch/set-validator!/get-validator were atom-only; the atom ctor ignored :meta and :validator; watching a var crashed. Now the ARef contract is one seam: atoms keep their record slots (hot path unchanged), every other reference type registers a predicate and stores watches/validators in identity-keyed side tables, and notifies at its mutation points. Vars notify on root changes (def on a watched var, var-set outside a thread binding, alter-var-root — thread-binding sets don't notify, like the JVM); agents notify per action. The def-var! wrap costs two weak-table probes per def and does IRef work only on a watched var. Ctor options follow ARef: the validator gates the initial value (IllegalStateException 'Invalid reference state' — also the class for rejected swap!/reset!), :meta must be a map (else ClassCastException), nil allowed. meta reads any reference through the identity side-table (the type-gated fall-through is gone); alter-meta!/reset-meta! work on non-var references. Runtime-only (no re-mint). 9 JVM-certified corpus rows; spec entry; cts baseline 5781 -> 5805 pass, 73 baselined namespaces (the residual error in the watch namespaces is their STM ref section — refs stay out of scope). |

Chez test harness
The correctness gate for jolt. Pure Chez (+ Clojure for the JVM oracle).
Correctness is judged against the JVM-sourced conformance spec; the spec itself
lives in test/conformance/ (see its SPEC.md). Run the whole gate with make test from the repo root.
The spec corpus
corpus.edn is the contract: ~2920 rows {:suite :label :expected :actual}, with
:expected sourced from reference JVM Clojure by test/conformance/regen-corpus.clj.
It is frozen (the canonical source) — add or change cases here, then re-source the
answers with regen-corpus.clj and re-certify with test/conformance/certify.clj.
The gate runners (host/chez/)
-
run-corpus.ss— runs every corpus case through the spine (read → analyze → IR → emit → eval, all on Chez), comparing each result by value-equality against the JVM:expected. Aknown-failallowlist covers cases jolt can't match because Chez has no JVM host (Java classes, arrays,BigDecimal, opaque host-object printers, …); the gate fails only on a NEW divergence or if the pass count drops below the floor.chez --script host/chez/run-corpus.ss JOLT_CORPUS_LIMIT=200 … # every-Nth stride, fast iteration JOLT_CHEZ_ZJ_FLOOR=N … # override the floor (default 2678) -
run-unit.ss— host-specific unit cases (test/chez/unit.edn) that aren't in the JVM-portable corpus: dot-forms, java statics, io, reader, walk, vars/namespaces, refs. Each:expris evaluated in-process and its printed value compared to a baked:expected(:throwsasserts a raise). -
selfcheck.sh— self-host fixpoint:bootstrap.ssrebuild byte-equals the checked-in seed (host/chez/seed/). -
smoke.sh— realbin/joltc -eCLI smoke. -
cts.sh— the vendored jank-lang/clojure-test-suite (vendor/clojure-test-suite, a per-core-fn clojure.test suite shared across Clojure dialects), run one namespace perjoltcprocess (a hang or crash is contained) through thetest/chez/cts-appproject andcts-runrunner. Per-namespace fail/error counts must exactly match the checked-in baselinetest/chez/cts-known-failures.txt— a namespace doing worse fails the gate, and one doing better fails as stale until the baseline is updated in the same change.make cts;JOLT_CTS_NS=ns1,ns2runs a subset verbosely,JOLT_CTS_WRITE_BASELINE=1regenerates the baseline.
Other Chez tests
values-test.ss— the value model (nil/truthiness/collections).make values.bench-chez.ss— compute bench through the pipeline (opt-in; not in the gate).
All runners assume chez on PATH.
