Compiler fixes found while building a real browser application in AffineScript: affinescript-tea (#778) and the nexia-list UI port. Each fix has a regression test, and for each one I confirmed the test fails without the fix (a "planted negative").

Type checker

  • Kinds of user generic enums and extern types. fn mk<M>(x: M) -> Box<M>, Html<Msg> and extern type Cell<T> all failed with Too many arguments for kind. Arities are now recorded, and for imported types they are recovered from the imported schemes. Over-application is still rejected.
  • Zero-parameter lambdas. fn() => e is now Unit -> T (what () -> T lowers to), so thunks can be passed.
  • Record update. S #{ ..base, f: v } ignored the spread when typing. It now has update semantics: field types are preserved, new fields extend a closed record, and an open base is constrained instead of extended (which previously failed the row occurs check).
  • Imported structs. An imported struct was an opaque name, so its fields couldn't be read. Each module now records its type definitions under a reserved (NUL-prefixed) name_types key that imports carry across.
  • Generic externs used before their declaration. They now get their generalised scheme in the forward pass. Before, the first use fixed the type: TypeMismatch (Int, Bool).
  • Scoping. A function body's let bindings leaked into the module's name table, so a local let node = … replaced the exported node. The table is now snapshotted and restored around each body.

Bun-ESM backend

  • Qualified payload constructors. Msg::SetName(s) called a { tag } object.
  • Receiver-first functions. They were turned into async class methods and their calls rewritten to await recv.m(..), which broke chained calls on struct literals and leaked await into sync code. They're now always plain sync exports; the class remains as an extra JS surface.
  • Lambdas inside synthesised methods. They inherited the async context, producing (x) => (await …). Browsers and V8 reject this; Bun accepts it, which hid the bug.
  • Math builtins. float, floor, sqrt, trig, exp/log and friends now lower to Number/Math.*.
  • Integer division in loops (codegen: integer / lowers to floating-point division on the JS-family backends #478). A loop body's tail expression was generated before its statements, because OCaml evaluates ^ operands right to left. The int-tracking then forgot lo was an Int, so (lo + hi) / 2 became float division.

Module loader / AST

  • $AFFINESCRIPT_PATH. A package search path (colon-separated), so third-party packages can be imported.
  • find_free_vars. It now walks for/while/assignment statements and pattern binders. Before, flattening dropped private helpers called inside loops (ReferenceError), and closure conversion could miss captures.
  • Transitive flattening. An imported module's own imports are now flattened first, with a cycle guard. Before, importing Router.on_url_change (whose body calls Tea.subs) emitted an undefined subs. Fixture: chain_import → ChainLib → DirLib.
  • Flattening carries directly imported enums. use M::{Up} followed by Some(Up) produced an undefined Up. The Bun-ESM corpus runner now puts the corpus directory on the module path, so fixtures can span several modules.

Tests

  • New unit test modules: test_generic_enum_kinds, test_module_search_path, test_records_and_imports.
  • New Bun-ESM fixtures: tea_shape, thunk_math, method_lambda, imported_ctor + DirLib, int_div_loop, chain_import + ChainLib.
  • dune test main suite: 562 OK. Bun-ESM corpus: 38/38. WASM corpus: 38/38. Native Bun: 1/1.
  • res-to-affine-walker fails locally only because its tree-sitter grammar isn't built (parser.c is absent); that's an environment issue, not this change.

Known follow-ups (not in this PR)

  • Generic structs still lower their fields without binding the type parameters.
  • Ordinary (non-extern) generic functions used before their declaration are still monomorphic at those call sites, because their effects are inferred.
  • A zero-parameter function declaration is typed as its bare result while its JS value is a function.
  • A qualified pattern on an imported enum needs the constructor imported explicitly.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

…eiver-first fns

Found while probing the Bun-ESM target for a TEA UI runtime:

- typecheck: `infer_kind` gave every non-builtin type constructor kind
  `Type`, so naming a user generic enum applied to arguments in any
  signature (`fn mk<M>(x: M) -> Box<M>`, `Html<Msg>`) failed with
  "Too many arguments for kind". Record each parametric enum's arity, and
  recover the arity of imported enums from the imported value schemes
  (the only cross-module type information `check_program` receives).
  Over-application is still rejected (planted negative test).
- bun-esm: a qualified payload constructor `Msg::SetName(s)` lowered to a
  call on the nullary `({ tag })` object. It now lowers to the emitted
  constructor binding.
- bun-esm: every receiver-first fn was folded into an async class method
  and its calls rewritten to `(await recv.m(..))`. Struct literals are
  plain objects, so chained calls failed and `await` leaked into sync
  callers (e.g. a TEA `update`). Fns are now always emitted as plain sync
  exports and called directly; the synthesised class remains as an extra
  JS-facing surface (ref_fields/class_basic unchanged).

Tests: test/test_generic_enum_kinds.ml (6), tests/codegen-deno/tea_shape
(Bun-ESM harness; 33/33 harnesses pass; dune test main suite 550 OK).

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Effect-handler and resumption expressions that are not supported now produce a compile-time error instead of being silently omitted.
  • Documentation

    • Clarified how free-variable analysis handles certain expressions and that its results may include duplicates.
    • Expanded guidance on code generation, imports, module loading and type checking, including how errors and imported names are handled.

Walkthrough

The changes revise documentation for compiler analysis, code generation, module loading, symbol imports and type checking. The code generator now raises a compile-time failure for handle and resume expressions.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Suggested reviewers: metadatastician

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to c62b0

Glob-imported structs can lack usable field definitions, and a type-only import of a generic extern can fail kind checking. These import failures should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging; the selective-import documentation also needs qualification.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 7eddd

Module search now includes environment-configured directories, and generated JavaScript can expose transitive dependency functions. No exploit is established, but directory trust and downstream use of those exports remain unclear.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — Additional configured directories can supply imported source to compiler and LSP resolution, and recursively carried dependencies can reach generated non-Wasm programs. The evidenced scope is module resolution and generated output; deployment-wide, tenant, credential, or privileged-service exposure is not established.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Module lookup searches the current directory, then the standard library, then configured additional directories, so the new environment path does not override an already-found module. Configuration is captured when a loader is created, and its cache uses logical module paths. Trust in the environment and selected directories is not established by the inspected callers.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — If compilation is exposed to untrusted callers, use an explicit trusted module-search configuration rather than inheriting unrestricted process-environment paths. If generated exports serve as an authority boundary, distinguish declarations needed internally from declarations intentionally exported.

…builtins

- typecheck: a zero-parameter lambda `fn() => e` was typed as its bare
  body type in synth mode and checked against the *whole* `() -> T`
  arrow in check mode, so a thunk could never be passed to a `() -> T`
  parameter (inline or by name). It is now `Unit -> T` in both modes —
  the type an explicit `() -> T` already lowers to, and which the
  zero-argument call rule already consumes. Wrong body types still fail.
- typecheck: `extern type Cell<T>` records its arity like a parametric
  enum, so host-backed generic types can be named in signatures.
- bun-esm: lower the stdlib/math.affine header builtins (float, floor,
  ceil, round, trunc, sqrt, cbrt, pow_float, trig, exp/log family) to
  `Number`/`Math.*`; they compiled to calls of undefined JS globals.

Tests: parametric extern type case in test_generic_enum_kinds;

Colon-separated directories searched after the current directory and the
stdlib, so third-party AffineScript packages (affinescript-tea first) can
be imported from outside the importing program's directory. Previously the
loader's search_paths was always empty with no way to set it.

Test: test/test_module_search_path.ml (absent without the path, found
with it; empty entries ignored). dune test main suite 553 OK.

Statements other than `let` and expression statements were skipped, so a
name used only inside a `for`/`while` body (or an assignment) was never
reported free. Import flattening then dropped the private helper it named:
a public `create` calling `apply_attr` in a for-loop compiled to
`ReferenceError: apply_attr is not defined` on Bun-ESM. The same walker
drives closure conversion, which could likewise miss a capture.

Also bind every variable of a destructuring `let` and of match-arm
patterns (and walk guards), instead of only plain `PatVar` lets.

dune test main suite 553 OK; Bun-ESM 34/34; WASM 38/38.

… lambdas in methods

Found porting nexia-list's UI to AffineScript (a multi-module TEA app):

- typecheck: `S #{ ..base, f: v }` ignored the spread when typing, so the
  result was only the explicit fields and an update could never produce
  the struct it started from. Now: a closed base keeps every field, each
  explicit field must match the base's type (an update cannot change a
  field's type) and new fields extend it; an open or not-yet-known base is
  constrained to have the explicit fields and the result is its own type
  (extending an open row there failed the row occurs check).
- typecheck/resolve: an imported struct was an opaque name in the
  importer, because imports carry only value schemes, so its fields could
  not be read. A module now records each monomorphic type definition under
  a reserved `name_types` key (NUL-prefixed, disjoint from identifiers),
  the import paths copy it for imported type symbols (aliases honoured),
  and `check_program` installs it in the importer's type environment.
  Local declarations still win.
- bun-esm: a lambda inside a synthesised (async) class method inherited
  the async context, emitting `(x) => (await ...)`, which is a SyntaxError
  in V8/browsers (Bun's parser accepts it, which hid the bug). Lambda bodies
  are now emitted in a non-async context.

Tests: test/test_records_and_imports.ml (7, incl. wrong-field-type and
unknown-imported-field negatives); tests/codegen-deno/method_lambda
(fails with the SyntaxError when the lambda fix is reverted).

A browser TEA runtime for the Bun-ESM target, in AffineScript:

- src/Tea.affine: typed virtual DOM (`Html<M>`, `Attr<M>` with
  attributes, properties, styles, keys and `Event -> Option<M>` decoders;
  HTML and SVG), a reconciler with keyed child moves (DOM nodes of
  surviving keys are reused and moved), `Cmd<M>` (none/batch/send/run_cmd)
  and `Sub<M>` (window events, animation frames, intervals) diffed by key
  after every update, and `run(selector, init, update, view, subscriptions)`
  with in-order message processing and frame-batched renders.
- src/tea_host.js: the only JavaScript, a host carve-out implementing the
  primitive externs (DOM ops, handler slots, rAF/timers, cells, key index).
- examples/todo: the reference app.
- e2e: Playwright (pinned 1.62.1) drives the app in headless Chromium;
  8 tests, including keyed reorder preserving node identity (verified to
  fail with keyed diffing disabled). Wired into ci.yml's build job.

Depends on the compiler fixes in #777 (generic enum/extern kinds, thunks,
qualified ctors, free-vars, $AFFINESCRIPT_PATH).

An enum's constructors reached an importer's flattened (non-Wasm) output
only if some carried *function* constructed them; patterns do not count.
So `use Geometry::{Up}` + `Some(Up)` compiled to a reference to an
undefined `Up` (a ReferenceError at the first keypress in nexia-list's
port). Public enums named in a `use M::{...}` list (by type or by any
constructor), and all public enums for `use M`/globs, are now carried;
enums made only of the preamble's Option/Result constructors never are.

The Bun-ESM corpus runner now puts the corpus on AFFINESCRIPT_PATH so
fixtures can be multi-module. Test: imported_ctor + DirLib (fails with
`ReferenceError: North is not defined` without this change).

The #76 `.affine` UI never parsed (a mechanical ReScript text rewrite), so
main had no runnable UI. This rewrites it from scratch in AffineScript on the
affinescript-tea runtime, compiled with the Bun-ESM backend:

- ui/src/Store.affine: the Rust/WASM core's interface (externs).
- ui/src/Geometry.affine: pure canvas geometry (spatial keyboard nav, nudge,
  zoom/pan, viewport culling, circular graph layout).
- ui/src/App.affine: model/update/view/subscriptions. List, canvas and graph
  views; note editor with links, backlinks, link picker; sidebar search
  (capped at 200, "search to narrow") and agents; toolbar file ops; error and
  notice banners. New: persisted λδ computed fields with live values in the
  editor and on canvas cards plus a live formula preview; inline card editing
  (double-click); drag/pan as model state + window subscriptions; canvas
  viewport culling.
- ui/host/nexia_host.js (host carve-out): WasmNotebook adapter with an
  incrementally updated read model, IndexedDB autosave (flushed on hide),
  quarantine of a corrupt/newer autosave under a dated backup key, file I/O.
- scripts/build-ui.sh builds web/dist; scripts/fetch-affinescript.sh builds
  the compiler at a pinned commit into ./.affinescript (no sibling checkout).
- tests/e2e (Playwright 1.62.1, headless Chromium): cold start < 1 s,
  canvas create/drag/inline-edit/pan/zoom, λδ fields updating in the DOM,
  close-and-reopen persistence, corrupt-autosave quarantine, keyboard nav —
  13/13. ui/tests/geometry.test.js unit-tests Geometry.affine (6).
- ui-ci: compiler pin bumped; checks run from each file's directory; the
  UI is built and the unit + e2e suites run.
- ADR docs/decisions/ui-affinescript-tea-2026-10-05.adoc supersedes the
  2026-09-22 deferral.

Depends on hyperpolymath/affinescript#777 and #778 (pinned by SHA).

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Copy the type definition in the glob-import path too.

import_resolved_symbols and import_specific_items now call import_type_def. The ImportGlob branch does not. With use Mod::*;, the importer receives the struct name but no type_def_key entry. check_program then lowers the type as an opaque TCon. As a result, field access and record updates on that imported struct fail, but they succeed with use Mod::{T}.

…efore declaration

- bun-esm (#478 follow-up): OCaml evaluates `^` operands right to left, so
  a `while`/`for` body's tail expression was generated before its
  statements. The int-tracking for `Int / Int` truncation then saw the
  tail's assignments (`lo = mid + 1`) before the `let mid = ...` they
  depend on, forgot `lo` was an Int, and emitted float division: a binary
  search computed `(lo + hi) / 2 = 2.5`. Block parts are now generated in
  source order. Fixture int_div_loop fails (1 vs 3) without this.
- typecheck: the forward pass bound every function to a fresh,
  ungeneralised type variable, so a generic extern used before its
  declaration had its type fixed by the first use and a second
  instantiation failed (`TypeMismatch (Int, Bool)`). Extern signatures are
  complete, so their generalised schemes are now registered in the forward
  pass (after all types). Ordinary generic fns keep the old behaviour
  (their effects are inferred) — a documented follow-up.

…rams

check_fn_decl restored only parameter bindings after checking a body, so a
block-local `let node = ...` overwrote the module-level `node` in
name_types, and importers saw the local's type as the module's export
(`Expected a function type, got Node` when affinescript-tea's `node`
helper was imported after its keyed diff gained a local `node`). The name
table is now snapshotted after the function's own recursive binding and
restored wholesale after the body. Test: local binding does not shadow

@hyperpolymath hyperpolymath changed the title fix(compiler): generic kinds, thunks, ctors, sync fns, math builtins, free vars, AFFINESCRIPT_PATH fix(compiler): fixes found building a real multi-module TEA app on Bun-ESM Oct 5, 2026
hyperpolymath and others added 2 commits October 5, 2026 19:46
Flattening carried an imported module's own declarations but not what that
module imported, so a program importing Router.on_url_change (whose body
calls Tea.subs) emitted an undefined `subs`. An imported module's imports
are now flattened first (with a cycle guard), so the dependency closure
reaches across modules. Fixture chain_import -> ChainLib -> DirLib fails
with `ReferenceError: name is not defined` without this change.
dune main 562 OK; Bun-ESM 38/38; WASM 38/38.

… stricter negative tests

Review follow-up (CodeRabbit on #777):
- Since qualified constructors lower to their binding (`Msg::Inc` -> `Inc`),
  a top-level const naming a variant of an enum declared later in the file
  read the binding in its temporal dead zone (ReferenceError). Enum bindings
  are now emitted before the source-order pass. Fixture const_before_enum
  fails with `Cannot access 'Fast' before initialization` without this.
- test_records_and_imports: negative tests now require a *type* error (a
  parse/resolution failure no longer counts), the unknown-imported-field
  test checks the field is named, and the field-type-change test returns
  `String` from `r.a` so only validating the update can reject it.
dune main 562 OK; Bun-ESM 39/39; WASM 38/38.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Preserve arity for type-only imports of generic extern types.

When a module imports only Cell from pub extern type Cell<T>, the exporter does not add a type_def_key entry for it. The resolver transfers only that entry for an explicitly imported type. The importer therefore has no arity for Cell. infer_kind treats an unregistered type constructor as Type, so Cell<Int> fails kind checking. Export generic type arity independently of value schemes.

Update the stale comment.

The comment says imported type declarations are not inlined. The new code at lines 468-486 inlines public user enums. The comment now contradicts the code. Reword it to say that only user enums (not the Option and Result preamble enums) are carried.

Review follow-up (CodeRabbit on #777): a module shared by several import
paths (a diamond) was re-flattened once per path, which grows
exponentially with depth; completed flattened programs are now cached for
the duration of one flatten_imports call (the cycle guard is unchanged).
The imported-struct negative test now asserts the specific
"Field 'z' not found" diagnostic. dune main 562 OK; Bun-ESM 39/39; WASM 38/38.

🤖 Completed: Generate docstrings for PR #777 — View commit c62b0d1

hyperpolymath added a commit that referenced this pull request Oct 5, 2026
…finescript-crdt (#778)

Depends on: #777

A browser **TEA runtime written in AffineScript**, plus a router and a
CRDT library built on the same toolchain. The TEA runtime is, compiled
with the Bun-ESM backend. It's the runtime the nexia-list UI is now
built on (hyperpolymath/nexia-list#112), and it's usable by any
AffineScript web app.

## `affinescript-tea/src/Tea.affine` (all logic in AffineScript)
- **Virtual DOM.**
- `Html<M>`: `Text`, `Element(tag, ns, attrs, kids)` for HTML and SVG,
and **`Lazy(key, memo, view)`**, which skips building and diffing an
unchanged subtree, like Elm's `Html.Lazy`.
- `Attr<M>`: attributes, DOM properties, styles, keys, and `On(event,
Event -> Option<M>)` decoders.
  - Helpers, plus `map_html`, `map_attr` and `map_cmd`.
- **Reconciler.**
  - Attributes are patched in place.
- Handlers are re-pointed through per-node slots, with one DOM listener
per event.
- **Keyed children use minimal moves:** surviving nodes on a longest
increasing subsequence of their old positions stay put, and the rest are
inserted before their right-hand neighbour. The LIS is O(n log n) and
written in AffineScript.
  - Duplicate keys are matched once.
  - Unkeyed children patch by position.
- **Commands and subscriptions.** `Cmd<M>`
(`none`/`batch`/`send`/`run_cmd`) and `Sub<M>`
(`on_window`/`on_frame`/`every`/`subs`), diffed by key after every
update.
- **`run`.** `run(selector, init, update, view, subscriptions)`:
in-order message processing, re-entrant dispatches queued, renders
batched to the next animation frame.

## `src/tea_host.js`
The only JavaScript: a host carve-out implementing the primitive externs
(DOM operations, handler slots, rAF and timers, cells, key index, array
helpers). It makes no decisions.

## Tests (`e2e/`, Playwright 1.62.1, headless Chromium, in `ci.yml`):
10/10 locally
- Todo reference app: mount, init command, controlled input with Enter,
async command, keyed reorder preserving DOM-node identity (with lazy
rows), toggle, remove, a subscription that starts and stops, exactly one
mounted instance, and no runtime errors.
- A **200-round randomized keyed-diff property test** against a real
DOM: order and identity are always preserved, and rotating one item
costs **exactly one DOM move**.
- The keyed-reorder test fails when keyed diffing is disabled.

## Measured in nexia-list (2,793 visible cards of 10k)
- Pan work per frame went from p95 73 ms to **8.3 ms** with `lazy`
cards, the LIS diff and canvas level-of-detail.

## Notes
- Pages import the compiled module and never call `main()`. The Bun-ESM
backend runs `main` on load, so a second call mounts a second instance.
The README says so.
- The commit "wip(affinescript-tea): lazy subtrees, LIS keyed diff
(tests pending)" is complete; its tests (randomized diff, lazy rows) are
in the same branch. I left the message as-is rather than rewrite pushed
history.
- I couldn't run the new `ci.yml` step locally (Playwright install).
This PR's CI run is its first execution.

## Also in this PR: two more ecosystem packages
- **`affinescript-router`**: URL routing for TEA apps.
  - `current_url` and `on_url_change` (`popstate` + `hashchange`).
- `navigate`/`replace`/`back` commands that also deliver the new URL;
the History API fires nothing for programmatic changes.
- `match_route` with `:param` and trailing `*` captures (decoded),
`query_param` (form decoding), and `href`.
  - `router_host.js` is the host carve-out.
- Tests: 5 unit tests and 6 browser tests (push, replace, Back/Forward
including the browser's own, manual hash edit, deep link). Used by
nexia-list for deep links.
- **`affinescript-crdt`**: state-based CRDTs in pure AffineScript.
- A Lamport clock and stamps, an LWW register, an LWW map with
tombstones, an observed-remove set and a PN-counter.
- Tests: 7 property tests. Three replicas run 300 random operations each
with gossip and converge in all merge orders, and the merge laws hold on
random states. Breaking `map_merge` makes them fail.
- Both are registered in `docs/ECOSYSTEM.adoc`, and both test suites run
in `ci.yml`.
- The router depends on the transitive-flattening fix in #777.
