- [x] concrete data models: required integer widths/conversions, records/tuples and construction, fields, enums, distinct/alias types, unions and matching. examples: `source/lexer/token.hon`, `source/sema/resolve.hon`, `std/mem/mem.hon`.
- [x] native integer widths (`i8`–`i64`, `u8`–`u64`, `isize`/`usize`) and checked explicit numeric conversions, including float truncation/range checks and integer-to-float rounding. preserve exact types through arrays, calls and range captures; retain strict implicit conversion rules.
- [x] records/tuples, typed/contextual/anonymous construction, field defaults and reads/writes, nested aggregate value copies, imported record types and constructors through interpreter/native execution.
- [x] nominal enums and distinct types, transparent declaration/type aliases, overlapping untagged/tagged unions, contextual payload construction, active-field checks and exhaustive scalar/enum/tagged-union matching through interpreter/native execution. pointer captures, inline specialization, sum composition and yielding value blocks remain with their respective later gates.
- [x] nominal enums and distinct types, transparent declaration/type aliases, overlapping untagged/tagged unions, contextual payload construction, active-field checks and exhaustive scalar/enum/tagged-union matching through interpreter/native execution. pointer captures, inline specialization and yielding value blocks remain with their respective later gates; error-set composition is covered below.
- [x] memory representation: source pointers/references, mutable and sentinel slices, optionals, layout/cast builtins and allocator-required libc calls. internal IR array addresses are not source pointers. examples: `std/mem/mem.hon`, `std/arraylist/arraylist.hon`.
- [x] source data pointers/references: `@T`/`*T`, `mut`, address-taking and dereference, pointer-aware fields/indexing, array `.len`/`.ptr`, readonly weakening, location equality, recursive pointer-linked records and shared pointees across interpreter/native calls and aggregate copies.
- [x] function-pointer signatures: explicit `@proc(...) Result`, structural signature checking, callbacks in parameters/results/records/arrays, vtable calls and imported signature aliases; many-pointer `+ usize` arithmetic preserves pointee type, mutability, stride and location identity through interpreter/native execution.
- [x] mutable/sentinel slices with checked bounds, borrowed aliases and string views; optional values/pointers/callbacks, null checks, unwrap and conditional/loop captures; target layout, pointer/const casts and typed memory copy/set through interpreter/native execution. scalar/pointer C ABI declarations build/run allocator callbacks using `malloc`, `realloc`, `free` and `posix_memalign`; arbitrary interpreter FFI, generic/fallible standard-library compilation and native startup/IO remain with later gates.
- [ ] fallible results and cleanup: error-set composition, `try`/`catch`, `defer`/`errdefer`; infrastructure errors remain distinct from diagnostic traps. examples: `source/main.hon:41`, `source/sema/check/check.hon:117`.

- [x] fallible results and cleanup: explicit `T ! E`, error-set composition, `try`/`catch`, `defer`/`errdefer`, error captures and matched error residuals through interpreter/native execution; infrastructure errors remain distinct from diagnostic traps. fallible `void` may complete on fallthrough; unhandled entry errors exit with status `1`. inferred `T!` signatures and yielding catch blocks remain with inference/value-control-flow work. examples: `source/main.hon`, `source/sema/check/check.hon`.
- [ ] generic specialization and compile-time execution/reflection sufficient for existing `ArrayList`, hash maps, `enummap`, `meta` and `io.print`; include type/value parameters and compile-time generated storage.
- [ ] remaining source constructs: collection/index iteration, expression-valued control flow and `yield`, compound updates and multiline strings. examples: `source/parser/parse.hon`, `source/llvm/runtime.hon`.
- [ ] standard-library milestone: compile/run a multi-package program exercising existing allocation and IO, including error cleanup; no replacement miniature standard library.
