New proposed goal (user-approved wording, from the post-G-073 design
discussion 2026-08-05): version/context deltas of a command's interface
become declarable and honestly surfaced without delta computation,
layered by delta kind. An @form may be declared unavailable -
participating in candidacy/diagnosis, displayed annotated, tailored
formunavailable rejection when only unavailable forms match, silent
resolution to the available form when both match (the first sanctioned
exception to G-041's no-silent-preference rule: documentation never
competes with reality), -form selection displays but refuses parse.
Option NAMES may be declared unavailable (the G-073 mirror at the
option-name level) with pointed tailored rejection. The default render
stays on available forms plus an AUTOMATED note enumerating unavailable
shapes (name + authored note + navigation hint - no computed delta;
user display decision relaxing the strict G-073 display-among-peers
principle for shape deltas only, since named things keep per-name
display via the option/choice layers). formstatus gains an additive
'available' field (G-152 contract) as the machine surface, and
authoring guidance prescribes -choiceunavailable for subcommand-shaped
deltas so the same concept never surfaces through two inconsistent
paths.
Detail file records the layered-model rationale, the silent-preference
exception scope, the two-paths trap prescription, era authoring via
shared -form tags (one form per version era - linear), engine seams,
and the relations/overlap survey (G-073 foundation, G-166 sibling
surface, G-152/G-041/G-074/G-150/G-149/G-044/G-055). Acceptance and
the lsearch -stride adoption candidate are agent-derived for user
review; status proposed. goals_lint clean (82 active / 85 archived).

New per-argument key -choiceunavailable <list>: names recognised but not
available in the current runtime/context. Entries display among the
choices under a dedicated "Unavailable (recognised, not selectable
here)" group (one rendering-side injection - both renderers,
choicelabels notes, choiceinfo markers, trie prefix marking and
value-in-effect exclusion all inherited) and join the prefix pools;
synopsis literals and goodchoice marking never include them. Resolve
-time validation: no collision with choices/alias names/reservelist,
-default may not be unavailable, requires -choices/-choicegroups.
choiceword_match gains an optional 8th argument and an 'unavailable'
result key (matched stays 0 - matched-only consumers unaffected):
exact, nocase and unique-prefix landings carry the name as canonical; a
prefix shared with an available choice stays plain-ambiguous.
Validation rejects a landing with the tailored PUNKARGS VALIDATION
{choiceunavailable <name> choices <list>} error (-badarg/-badval;
private::unavailable_choice_msg names the supplied word, the resolved
entry, its choicelabel note and the available values; shared by final
validation and both G-082 overflow raise sites via rejection kind
'unavailable' from the allocation screen). Ambiguity messages annotate
unavailable longer matches '(recognised but unavailable)';
-choicerestricted 0 keeps full passthrough.
tclcore 'string is' adoption: curated forward list {dict} ('unicode'
deliberately excluded) diffed against the define-time harvest; labels
and per-class virtual ids extend to unavailable classes. On Tcl 8.6:
dict displays with its "(class not present in Tcl 8.6)" note,
'string is dict' rejects informatively, 'string is di' is ambiguous
(deliberately stricter than real 8.6 - recorded as a user-sanctioned
parity exemption; full words parity-true), and 'i string is dict'
documents via the virtual id. punk::ns cmd_traverse passes the key at
both resolver sites (doc-walk parity; the choice-traverse comment now
documents the choice-resolution vs doc-addressing axes split). tclcore
moduledoc requires punk::args 0.16.0-.
Tests: new choiceunavailable.test (10 tests); usagemarking.test gains
the goodchoice-exclusion pin; tclcoreparity.test gains forward-class
adoption invariants and the sanctioned 'di' strictness exemption, with
the version_notes pin deliberately flipped (dict's label now renders on
every runtime). Green: the three suites 37/37 on native Tcl 8.6.10
(luck runtime), 8.7a6 and 9.0.3; punk/args subtree 293/290/3 skips/0
fail on 9.0.3 AND 8.7; modules/punk sweep green except the three
documented pre-existing box-baseline failures (grepstr x2, nslist x1);
ns cmdhelp/corp 58/58 after the comment clarification.
Goals: G-073 flipped achieved 2026-08-05 + archived (index record
moved, detail file to goals/archive with Progress/verification and 3
follow-ons). G-166 drafted [proposed] at user direction (approved
wording): cmdinfo availability key + cmdhelp marking + tclcore leading
note + prefix-landing decision; the enacted G-073 follow-on flipped
=> goal G-166, the G-055 pattern follow-on => goal G-055 with a Notes
pointer added there. goals_lint clean. punkshell 0.54.0 + CHANGELOG.
Bootsupport/vfscommon snapshots unchanged until promotion + bake.

A REQUIRED typed value or leader whose present word fails the basic-type
allocation screen (int/double/bool/number/dict) now reports the pointed
typemismatch naming the word and argument (-badarg/-badval, same shape
as the G-082 overflow-site selection) instead of the generic
missingrequiredvalue/missingrequiredleader shortfall. The in-loop
required-arg raise sites consult the rejection record returned by
get_dict_can_assign_value; the leaders-loop edit mirrors the values
loop per the MAINTENANCE contract. Unchanged by design: end-of-input
shortages (valuemissing/count classes), literal-typed members,
multi-member clause partials (no rejection record - conservatism
preserved), and required-arg choice words (never screened - G-071
asymmetry, choiceviolation already pointed).
parse_status: the shape now classifies invalid/typemismatch (the
formstatus viability verdict was already invalid; one probe re-parse
saved); argdoc status-key note updated. Pins deliberately flipped:
parsestatus.test (renamed parsestatus_typed_value_screen_typemismatch),
formviability.test (single-form top-status/formstatus split demo
re-anchored on a required-option shape), punk/ns cmdhelp.test message
match. New errorselection.test coverage: required value + leader
typemismatch pins plus unchanged-shape guards.
Verified tcl 9.0.3: punk/args subtree 280 total / 277 passed / 3

Every make.tcl zip-kit bake is to emit an ARCHIVE-relative kit regardless
of the driving interpreter's zipfs vintage (legacy file-relative mkimg in
8.7/9.0.0, fixed mkimg in 9.0.1+, or no mkimg at all): zip-kit assembly
moves to a single writer layer - punkzip (zig) when its binary is present,
punk::zip::mkzip (pure Tcl) as the always-available floor - with
tcl::zipfs::mkimg retired from the pipeline, and file-relative output only
via an explicit per-kit mapvfs.toml opt-in. Workstream order (user
decision): upstream punkzip root-strip/exclude enabling changes first,
then the punkshell seam. The detail file carries the driver-vintage probe
evidence (8.7a6=file, 9.0.3=archive), the upstream fix provenance (ticket
aaa84fbbc5, core 3d62ee540d 2024-12-05), the write-path benchmark (mkimg

The closing-banner prefix check 'string match "$line_inner*"' treated
the raw test name as a glob pattern, so a test NAME containing glob
metacharacters (* ? [ ] backslash) never matched its own opening text:
the closing banner failed to close the failure section and every later
event including the summary line was swallowed (the G-161 wedge class;
latent, unexercised in the corpus). The check is now an exact byte
prefix compare (string equal -length) - identical semantics for ordinary
names, and an empty line_inner keeps the historic match-everything
behaviour. New parsetestrun-globname-7.0/7.1 pins: 8/8 green tclsh90
single+multi-process and tclsh86, parser dir 10/10.

- new goal (user-drafted 2026-08-04): when the valmin reservation seats a word that literally names a declared required option into a required value slot and the resulting optionmissing stands in the G-152 viability probe, re-parse with the stolen word(s) consumed as the option they name; pure end-of-input exhaustion after that re-seating grants viable-incomplete. Runtime seating unchanged (the trailing-flag-as-value rule is load-bearing, pinned by flagvalues_plain_then_dash)
- surfaced by the G-150 batch + independent second-session review: 'i hash -t' classes the test form '(not viable)' although 'hash -t foo' is valid - a false negative, GAP-pinned in cmdhelp.test (owned by this goal; the pin flips at achievement)

Acceptance met in full (evidence in the archived detail file's Progress): 'i ::punk::auto_exec::hash -r' renders only the rehash form's usage and '-d <name>' only the delete form, driven by the declaration (bare punk::args::parse withid selects flag-led forms uniquely via the show_or_set name's -regexprefail {^-}; no hash-handler involvement); runtime behaviour otherwise unchanged (dash-led name needs an explicit flag form - accepted cost); ensembles/single-form/no-word invocations render as today.

baking - punkkit-stamp.toml schema 2 records content digests of each kit's
assembly inputs (payload vfs manifests via the assembler's existing per-entry
CRCs, runtime artifact digest, resolved mapvfs declaration, bake schema) and
bakelist compares them against the current tree. Verdicts degrade per kit to
'n/a (<reason>)' (pre-digest stamp, unreadable container, mk4 driver
unavailable) without aborting the listing; zip kits read pure-Tcl via

tee_to_pipe declared the transchan 'clear' op; the Tcl core delivers 'clear'
before every write when declared (the G-145 defect class - see
goals/archive/G-145-piped-usage-ansi-remnants.md) and the handler discarded
o_encbuf, the held partial multi-byte character. The following chunk then began
with orphan continuation bytes and could never decode (the tail-backoff only
trims the end), so whole chunks accumulated in o_encbuf and successive clears
discarded them - eating contiguous multi-KB ranges of multibyte-dense output on
the unix repl console stack: 'i <cmd>' help tables displayed with missing
paragraphs, fused mid-word seam lines, or truncated bottom rows (WSL and native
linux ttys; windows unaffected). Isolation repro: 393/600 lines lost with
clear-per-write vs 0/600 without.
- tee_to_pipe: 'clear' no longer declared in initialize, so the core never
delivers it (same shape as the G-145 fix in ::punkboot::ansistrip); the
method is kept as a state-preserving no-op with a warning comment.
- flush repaired in tee_to_pipe, tee_to_log and logonly: all three referenced
an undeclared o_buffered variable (copy-paste from the o_buffered-bearing
ansiwrap/ansistrip classes) and threw on every invocation. Each now holds an
undecodable partial char in o_encbuf for the next write and emits any
decodable remainder per its class semantics.
- Verified: transform isolation harnesses clean at all chunk sizes with
clear-per-write; WSL end-to-end (linux kit visitor mode on a script(1) pty)
shows all previously-missing define/list table content present;
'make.tcl modules' mint OK.

characterisation arc (git 145e785c):
- G-160 commandstack hygiene pass: fix the suite-pinned defects (tokenid

get_IMPLEMENTOR builtin branch, debug arg validation, stray bare puts,
Delete_stack live-rename recursion, packagepreference rename/renamer

-renamer placement errors, O(1) token dispatch, delegation helper,
Rename_stack/get_stack parking retrievability, known_renamers defaults
reconciliation). Acceptance keyed to the _GAP_ test flips; overlap survey
surfaced only G-035 (sibling surface on packagepreference, related-noted).
- G-161 tcltestrun failure parsing robust to multi-line test descriptions:
the parser currently misses multi-line opening banners, misreads the
closing banner as an opener and swallows all later events including the
summary line; goal makes it tolerant so the src/tests/AGENTS.md

::punkboot::project_subcommand_info (summary/argsid/package/parse -
documented by moduledoc::punkboot 0.2.0): project subcommands appear in
help by registration alone and may opt arguments into declared parsing.
Carve-outs: tool-style kits keep help flags routed to their processor
(tomlish parity); tclsh intercepts a help flag only as sole argument
(stock dash parity); argsid-less registrations keep -help passthrough.
G-030 degradation doctrine: lazy guarded requires (normal boots never
load punk::args), PUNKBOOT_PLAIN=1 hook, plain-list fallback, rendering
degrades independently of parsing. 8.6 trap fixed en route: punk::args
choices-grid render needs punk::lib's lpop shim - guarded require added
(verified tabled help on metakit punk86).
moduledoc::punkexe 0.4.0: (script)::punkexe::help definition; top-level
refusal rule + help discovery; per-subcommand -help notes; buildinfo
rejection shape; passthrough-vs-parsed decision recorded.
Verified on zipfs (punk902z, punk91) and metakit (punk86) kits;
launcherhelp.test 22/22 (incl fake-thin-main registration harness +
metakit leg); punkexe subtree 140/136/4skip/0fail; full suite failures
(4) are pre-existing in untouched subsystems. Goal flipped achieved +
archive record + live-tier sweep (G-038 rewrite, pointers to G-077 and
G-089); detail-file move to goals/archive follows as a pure rename.
Layout _config trio + _vfscommon core seed hand-swept (byte-identical
to masters). GOALS.md staged as the G-032-removal hunk only - the
uncommitted G-159 draft entry is left to its author.

Acceptance fully met: per-defect dispositions recorded, module tarjar-free,
suite green (punk91 7/7, tclsh90 7/7, punk86 6/7 with the 8.6 zipfs
limitation recorded per G-034), 0.1.6 re-vendored with suite passing,
tarjar-artifact dispositions user-confirmed (all five keeps, none deleted).
Index entry moved to GOALS-archive.md; sweep updates pending-tense mentions
in G-029/G-109/G-157 and pushes actionable findings to G-034 (redirect =
zero-dep load path; 8.6 vfs::zip dll-load measured) and G-110 (8.6
copy-to-temp datapoint). Detail-file rename to goals/archive/ follows as a
pure-move commit.

Tar-era connection API removed from modpod (connect/disconnect/get,
system::connect_if_not/myname/myfullname - broken since the tarjar era, no
callers anywhere); is_valid_tm_version fixed (versionparts substitution
error); make_mountable_zip debug output removed (the undeclared ansistring
dependency made -offsettype file error under the module's declared deps;
stray ::last_header global gone); struct::set dependency dropped; module
greps tarjar-free. The load stub gains the unwrapped #modpod-<pkg>-<ver>
redirect: an extracted folder beside the .tm is sourced directly - loads
with neither zipfs nor vfs::zip available.
Re-vendored 0.1.6 through the established channels (modpod checkout mint ->
vendormodules -> bootsupport -> modules staging -> vfscommon). First modpod
testsuite at src/tests/modules/modpod/testsuites/modpod/roundtrip.test:
wrap/load round-trips - real-disk + zipfs module paths, both -offsettype
forms, unwrapped redirect, probe-discovered binary payload (no committed
binaries). Green: punk91 tcl9.1 kit 7/7, native tclsh90 7/7, punk86 8.6.17
6/7 (zipfs-container test skips on 8.6 - recorded per G-034).
G-111 activated at user request (activation overlap survey recorded);
per-defect dispositions, run evidence and tarjar-artifact assessment
proposals in goals/G-111-modpod-tidy-tests.md - artifact dispositions
await user confirmation. GOALS.md G-111 Scope version reference repaired
to glob form per goals-system v3 drift rule.

New proposed goal consuming G-101 follow-on items 1-3: punkshell 8.6
kits bake on the suite-built mk4 head via make.tcl (sdx ladder
suite-shell rung as a shared seam with G-157 step 4, bi-class head
variant, parity bakes for kit.punk86/kit.punkbi passing existing gates,
clean-path boot comparison vs tclkit-baked siblings, no new committed
binary, third-party-tclkit disposition record). Detail file carries the
2026-08-03 overlap survey (strongest: G-157; G-131/G-130/G-110/G-116/
G-137 related; libfetch/bin siblings judged not related) and the
drafting decisions approved at review.
GOALS.md staged hunk-scoped: the concurrent uncommitted G-111
activation + modpod re-vendor working state is left untouched for its
own commit.

Follow-on to G-004, extending the commit ban from executables to
opaque-container VFS artifacts (metakit/cookfs and similar non-zip
containers), executable-headed or not. Index entry + detail file with
overlap survey; tracked instances inventoried (bin/sdx.kit,
src/bin/sdx.kit, layout-shipped project-0.1 copy); goals_lint clean.

Both goals flip achieved with full acceptance verification recorded in their
detail files (G-031: componentized boot proven on punkshell kits, a generated
project and tomlish; G-025: buildinfo stamp/report verified across kit,
renamed-copy, code-interp, tclsh-hosted and unstamped contexts). Detail files
move to goals/archive/ (pure renames; flip edits committed with the move);
index entries move GOALS.md -> GOALS-archive.md records. Reference sweep per
goals/AGENTS.md Archive rules: pending-tense mentions rewritten with archive
markers and actionable outcomes pushed to G-018, G-023, G-026, G-032
(registration model + buildinfo now concrete render sources), G-038 (piped
exitinfo quirk re-measured and recorded as its territory), G-089
(boot_state IS the packagemode hint surface), G-131 (mains collapsed - land
detection in the core), G-137 (stamp exists - reconcile RT_VERSION against
it). goals_lint clean (81 active, 75 archived).

Scope adds src/vfs/README.md (boot-entry guidance), the punk::args moduledoc
home and the make.tcl collision gate. Goal/Acceptance now require:
project_main.tcl reborn as the commented thin-main sample, README boot-entry
sections (repo + project-0.1 layout via sync channels), a punk::args::moduledoc
package for the boot-core API shipped via _vfscommon, and per-kit bake refusal
when a source .vfs carries both a root main.tcl and a main.tcl fauxlink
(today silently traversal-order-dependent - merge_over fauxlink branch
overwrites unwarned). Approach/Alternatives/Notes record the 2026-08-02
evidence: project_main.tcl unmapped in mapvfs.toml (layout-template-only),
tomlish shared-_config + sample.vfs drop-in exhibits, moduledoc::punkexe
delivery precedent. Status remains proposed - activation is a separate flip.
