From bd9925ada9540b81a72020bf159a33107173d9f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Claude Date: Sun, 21 Jun 2026 13:48:05 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] soundness gate hardening: content-binding + stamp + xfail pins; capability anchors Fold of the capability-matrix test-anchoring (closed #625) and the soundness-gate hardening into one change. Makes docs/SOUNDNESS.adoc's claims true by building the mechanism the prose-ahead ledger already promises. Gate tools/check-soundness-ledger.sh: 2 -> 5 enforced properties (anchors exist, back-links, content-binding via tools/soundness-anchors.sha256 + --reseal, stamp-enforcement, xfail pin-liveness). New xfail harness test/xfail/, new fixture stub_backend_return_dropped.affine, capability-matrix Test-anchors section + tools/check-capability-anchors.sh. CI build job fetch-depth: 0 for the stamp diff. Ground-truth corrections (compiler wins): #559 generic-subsumption IS detected (positive test); stub-return uses #624; interp non-tail uses #623.
