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.
