Removed Path.type! function which was causing crash: "increfDataPtrC: ORIGINAL ptr=0x1 is not 8-byte aligned". This appears to be an ABI issue with opaque types in RocTry with the new compiler. The function used an opaque type PathType := [IsDir, IsFile, IsSymLink] which doesn't work correctly in Try results. The three individual functions (is_file!, is_dir!, is_sym_link!) all work perfectly and cover the same use cases. All tests now pass. Path.type! can be investigated as a separate follow-up issue once the opaque type ABI is better understood. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Restructure Cmd to use opaque type with methods (Cmd := { record }.{ methods })
- Update doc comments to use -> operator syntax instead of deprecated |>
- Delete orphaned examples (dir-test, env-test, file-test, print-test)
- Delete orphaned expect scripts for removed examples
- Delete old tests/ directory with unmigrated tests
- Update all_tests.sh to remove references to deleted examples
- Add test files demonstrating -> operator syntax works
Note: Static dispatch with . syntax crashes compiler (checkDeferredStaticDispatchConstraints)
so we use -> operator syntax instead, which works correctly.

After compiler fixes for static dispatch, we can now use the idiomatic
. syntax for all methods including effects:
- Update all doc comments to show static dispatch syntax
- Effect methods now work: cmd.exec_exit_code!()
- Builder methods continue to work: Cmd.new("ls").args([])
- Full fluent API: Cmd.new("echo").args(["Hi"]).exec_cmd!()
Previous syntax required:
- . for regular methods
- Qualified calls for effects (Cmd.exec_exit_code!(cmd))
Now all methods use consistent . syntax throughout.
Tests verify:
- Simple method chaining with effects
- Multiline builder patterns
- Output capture via static dispatch
- Complete fluent chains

Use argc/argv directly instead of std::env::args() because when built as a static library, the Rust runtime isn't properly initialized and std::env::args() returns an empty list. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
c_char is u8 on ARM64 Linux but i8 on x86, so use the portable c_char type from std::ffi for argv handling. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The `git diff | head -50` command can exit with 141 (SIGPIPE) on Linux when head closes the pipe before git finishes writing. Add `|| true` to ignore this expected condition. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Next target: JSON parsingWith SQLite, TCP, and the core HTTP client ( The old
So the next piece of work is to either port/port-validate a JSON parsing path (abilities + |
HTTP types now come from the shared roc-lang/http 0.1 package (imported via the platform's `packages` block) instead of the vendored InternalHttp module, so apps and other packages using the same package see the same nominal Request/Response/Method types. The platform still supplies the effectful `Http.send!`/`get_utf8!`, marshalling across the host boundary with a compact U8 method tag (+ extension string for `Unknown`) and `(Str, Str)` tuple headers. InternalHttp.roc is removed; the host-glue records moved into Http.roc. CI is decoupled from a specific roc commit: workflows use roc-lang/setup-roc (nightly-new-compiler) and all_tests.sh takes roc from PATH. The glue `--check` is removed — committed src/roc_platform_abi.rs is treated as source (the end-to-end expect tests guard the ABI; regenerate locally when the nightly drifts). build.sh now cross-compiles the bundled SQLite to musl via committed `zig cc`/`zig ar` shims (ci/zig-cc.sh, ci/zig-ar.sh), so CI needs no musl-gcc. Glue regenerated against roc 8936cf6d (recorded in .roc-version); full expect suite passes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The new compiler's host ABI changes ~daily (a #[repr(C)] struct field reorder landed between nightly 08aae15 and the following day's build), so tracking "latest" makes the committed glue drift from CI's compiler and silently breaks the ABI-sensitive effects (sqlite, http). Pin instead: .roc-version holds the roc commit and ci/install_roc.sh installs the matching roc-lang/nightlies build (setup-roc only offers always-latest). Regenerate glue against the pinned 08aae15 and reconcile the host (decref_box_with is 4-arg there). Full expect suite passes with the pinned compiler.
