Brief: K3a part 1, lowered_units, without_foreign, dependency_modules, by_package of comptime_run.rs into comptime_tree.nika (Part #125)

Score: self-hosting lane, bootstrap lane 1 (docs/bootstrap.md, K rows of comptime_run.rs). Plan row K3a (docs/selfhosting-plan.md, Large files 3) split in two: this part (~150 Rust lines: the assembly of a build-time program of several files) now; part 2 (compute, computed, worked_out_ahead, undeclared_callee, culprit, 284-595) next, over this part’s host. S=1.

Cut: crates/nikaia/src/comptime_run.rs:119-271 Convert: –profile check-free –prefix comptime_ Shape: schematic host-calls (the [forms comptime_]/[hosts comptime_] rows of crates/rs2nika/convert/rs2nika.names, learned P4b, P5b, P5d): every call into what stays Rust (emit_module_body_at, Needs, Ledger::infer_package, Parsed::keeping) becomes a host call; bodies, order and texts stay as they are.

The driver converts this before you start and names the draft (.draft.nika, .notes, .rs): start from it. Ranges at 7b36e23 (re-grep fn lowered_units, fn by_package if git log -- crates/nikaia/src/comptime_run.rs shows a later change). If crates/nikaia-compiler/src exists, R0 (#921) has run: read crates/nikaia-std/src/tools as crates/nikaia-compiler/src.

Facts

To build

  1. Step 1, the draft’s host calls: add [forms comptime_] and [hosts comptime_] sections to crates/rs2nika/convert/rs2nika.names for the calls above, re-convert (C=crates/rs2nika/convert/target/nikaia/bin/rs2nika; $C --cut crates/nikaia/src/comptime_run.rs:119-271 > D.rs; $C --profile check-free --prefix comptime_ --file D.rs > D.nika 2> D.notes), build from that draft; --score against it.
  2. The host trait, the four functions with doc comments into comptime_tree.nika, the Rust host impl and adapters; lower-std (only comptime_tree.rs and the index change). Commit comptime: a build-time program of several files assembled in Nikaia (K3a part 1), Part: #125, with rs2nika.names in the same commit.
  3. docs/selfhosting-plan.md row K3a: part 1 built, part 2 (compute .. culprit) left, over ComptimeLowerHost; self-hosting % (python3 scripts/self_hosting.py) in the commit body.

A lowering or checker defect met is fixed in the compiler as its own commit with a test; more than one: stop, Needs:.

Done when

The it filters and the guard set once at the end, beside clippy; tests/compiler; lower-std fixpoint. Changelog: none (a move).

Stop and report if

A message or generated text that would change; an edit needed in a lane 2 file; an error in another agent’s file.

Fields of docs/architect.md, Briefs and reports: Result: done|noop|partial|blocked (the bare word alone on that line: Result: done, never a summary after it, which cuts the batch, b869a 2026-10-27; Owner: is a question for the owner or none, never a role), Files, Commit, Body (optional, one paragraph for the commit message), Fixes, Pushed, Tests, Gate (green|red), Deviation, Found, Needs, Changelog, Owner, Disk freed, and for a move Rs2nika: (the kept N of M lines of rs2nika --score, then the three costliest hand edits; none for a task that moves no Rust, none (redesign) for a brief with Shape: redesign and no Convert: line). none where nothing, and then the bare word: Deviation: none (a note) cuts the batch (batch.nika compares exactly); a note goes into the commit message. Found: is only for a defect outside your change (it cuts the batch); a process event such as another session resetting or rewriting your files is no Found:, it goes under Needs: (m3a 2026-10-28); a converter draft that came out wrong is no Found:, it is one of the costliest edits under Rs2nika:, which the converter lane reads (e12-4b 2026-10-27); how you solved your own step goes into the commit message. Deviation: is only a step of the brief built otherwise than written or not built (a choice the brief left to you, such as keep what X needs and say so, is no deviation: it goes into the commit message; nor is building two steps in one commit when every step is built, e12-3a 2026-10-27, nor a step another commit on develop already built, shown by your test failing with that commit’s change reverted, b889 2026-10-27: name the commit in Body:, nor a test’s expected .stdout/.stderr taken from what the program really prints where the brief’s sketch of it was short or wrong, b934 2026-10-29: say so in Body:, nor a lowering that follows the ADR governing it where the brief’s expected lowering contradicts that ADR, b933 2026-10-29: name the ADR in Body:, nor re-keying an allow-list entry (KNOWN) whose hash changed for the same program and the same reason, b-fixforward-sweep2 2026-10-28: say so in Body:); how you verified (e.g. a test not run against the unfixed compiler) goes under Tests:. A noop says why under Tests: (what was probed), not under Deviation:. Final answer, one line: done <sha>, report <path> (or BLOCKED: ... / PUSH REJECTED ...).
