/** * Every published symbol must SAY what it is aligned on — in a machine-checkable line * beside the code, not in a document that drifts away from it. * * ── Why this is a test, and why the line lives in the source ─────────────── * The library's governing rule is that nothing may diverge from the target. Nothing in * the code recorded *what each symbol is aligned on*, and it cost twice in one week: * `docs/api-contract.md` claimed a "1:1 passthrough" that was false in two ways, and a * maintainer classified `branch-registers.readLinks` as this library's own invention when * it implements `AddLinkV0` — a type NextGraph **defines** (`engine/repo/src/types.rs`) * and constructs nowhere. Reading "nothing constructs this upstream" and concluding "so * it is ours" is inference from an ABSENT IMPLEMENTATION, which the project's own rule * forbids: a definition is a fact, its being unwired is an absence, and the absence says * nothing about the target. * * So the provenance is recorded per symbol, next to it, and this test pins it. * * ── The format ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── * * // @provenance kind= level=<1|2|3|none> ref= [announced-by=@] — * * - **name** — the PUBLISHED name, qualified for a namespace member (`inbox.post`, * `storeRegistry.createEntityDoc`). Internal symbols carry their own name. It is in * the line so this file can map an annotation to a symbol without a TypeScript parser. * - **level** — which layer of the target answers, numbered from the bottom like the * stack: `1` the engine (`engine/`), `2` the wasm binding / `@ng-org/web` * (`sdk/js/lib-wasm`, `sdk/js/web`), `3` the JS ORM (`sdk/js/orm`). `none` only when * nothing answers. * - **ref** — the ONE file a reader opens to check the claim, as `path:symbol` — a * SYMBOL, never a line number (line numbers rot, and three citations in * `docs/api-contract.md` already had). For every kind that cites the target it is a * symbol in `nextgraph-rs`. For `announced-not-written` there is no such file — the * target has not written the thing yet — so it is the `.md` in THIS working copy where * the statement is on record, and the announced name it is on record for. `none` only * for `invention`. * - **announced-by** — `@`: whose statement this is, and the date it is * on record for. Required by `announced-not-written`, refused on every other kind, so * it can never be attached to a weaker claim to make it read as a stronger one. * - **kind** — from a closed set, the same one as the taxonomy in * `.project/rules/nextgraph/no-divergence-from-nextgraph.md`; the two must agree: * * | kind | meaning | * |-------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------| * | `passthrough` | upstream's own symbol, same name and shape | * | `aligned` | our name or ergonomics, upstream's semantics and model | * | `declared-not-wired` | upstream DEFINES the type or shape; nothing constructs it yet | * | `announced-not-written` | upstream's developers have STATED this direction, and nothing in the tree carries it yet — not a definition, not even a name | * | `reserved-name` | upstream has declared a NAME with no shape behind it | * | `invention` | nothing at any level answers — a deliberate, documented bet | * | `divergent` | upstream does this, and we do it differently | * * `announced-not-written` is the STRONGEST kind available to a symbol with no counterpart * in the tree, and the two moves it replaces were both bad: citing an approximate symbol * (the `readUnion` failure — a true citation attached to a false claim) or declaring * `invention`, which tells a later reader the shape is ours to change when it is not. * Being the strongest, it is also the hardest to assert: it carries a named author, a * date, and the document where the statement is on record. An announcement nobody wrote * down is hearsay — and hearsay is how *"every document has a native inbox"* became an * implementation before anyone checked it. * * ── What this test checks, and what it deliberately does NOT ────────────── * It does NOT check that a claim is TRUE. `readUnion` cites a symbol that exists and does * what its annotation says it does, and the claim is still false: a composition cannot be * "aligned" on one function. Truth is a human reading the source. This file pins that a * claim was MADE, is well-formed, covers the whole surface — and does not point at a file * that has gone away. * * It checks that a citation RESOLVES, in the only two ways that cannot end up training * people to skip the suite: * * - a `nextgraph-rs` citation is checked ONLY when the checkout is there to ask * (`../nextgraph-rs`, or `$NEXTGRAPH_RS`). It is a sibling that may be absent on * another machine, and a test that goes red for THAT reason teaches nothing. Absent, * the check passes empty-handed; present, a file or a symbol that has gone away is * caught, which is the rot a human reader will not notice. * - an `announced-not-written` record is checked ALWAYS, because it points into this * working copy, which is never absent. That is precisely why the record has to live * here rather than upstream: it makes the one kind with no upstream file to cite the * one kind whose citation can be enforced unconditionally. */ import { test, expect } from "bun:test"; import * as fs from "node:fs"; import * as path from "node:path"; const SRC = path.join(import.meta.dir, "..", "src"); const ANNOUNCED = "announced-not-written"; const KINDS = new Set([ "passthrough", "aligned", "declared-not-wired", ANNOUNCED, "reserved-name", "invention", "divergent", ]); const LEVELS = new Set(["1", "2", "3", "none"]); /** `path/to/file.ext:Symbol` — a path and a symbol, never a line number. */ const REF_SHAPE = /^[A-Za-z0-9_.@/-]+\.[a-z]+:[A-Za-z0-9_]+$/; /** * The record of an announcement is PROSE in this working copy — a `.md`, never one of our * own source files.
