Summary

This pull request brings mpsc-log into line with the estate's phase 2
Rust baseline (Operation Parabellum Waves 2 and 3): the canonical
rustfmt and clippy configuration, a toolchain pin that includes the
canonical component set, and a complete set of clippy, rust, and
rustdoc lints in Cargo.toml. It is self-contained: the opt-in
dev-fast configuration is included here too, kept byte-identical to
the separate Wave 1 pull request throughout, so either can land first
without conflict; the new lint tables are documented for maintainers
rather than left as an undiscoverable convention; and build-backend/linker
detail lives only in the developers' guide, keeping the users' guide
scoped to what a consumer of the generated project needs. Per a later
sponsor decision, dev-fast is also now the standard development
path rather than an opt-in side path: the build, test, lint,
and typecheck Makefile targets compile through it automatically, so
ordinary development work gets the Cranelift/mold speed-up without
anyone needing to remember make dev-build/make dev-test. mpsc-log
is a greenfield scaffold, so the lint burn-down was small: one test
needed a documented deferral.

Review walkthrough

Start with Cargo.toml
to see the completed [lints.clippy], [lints.rust], and
[lints.rustdoc] tables (mpsc-log is a single crate, not a
workspace, so lints live directly under [lints]), plus the new
rstest/cap-std dev-dependencies used by the contract test below.
Then .rustfmt.toml
and clippy.toml
are verbatim copies of the canon; clippy.toml already matched the
canonical thresholds, so the only change there is the disallowed
environment-method list, and .rustfmt.toml's header comment was
brought into line with a canon correction that dropped a stale
copy-instruction (see Notes). rust-toolchain.toml
keeps the repository's existing dated nightly pin
(nightly-2026-05-28) and its existing llvm-tools-preview and
rustc-codegen-cranelift-preview components (needed for coverage
generation and the dev-fast path respectively), adding only the
previously missing canonical rust-analyzer component; the
canonical rule requires the component list to include rustfmt,
clippy, and rust-analyzer, not match them exactly.

.cargo/config.toml
drops the Cranelift dev-profile codegen backend, replaced by the
opt-in
tools/dev-fast/config.toml
fragment and the make dev-build/make dev-test targets, kept
byte-identical to the parabellum-wave-1 branch throughout (a later
canon comment refresh, and a $(CARGO) fix cross-applied from a
sibling PR's review finding, both mirrored to Wave 1's own copy — see
Notes).
Makefile
goes further: build, test, lint, and typecheck now pass
--config "$(DEV_FAST_CONFIG)" to every cargo invocation they make
(the build target's actual recipe lives in the target/%/$(TARGET)
pattern rule, conditionally excluded for release builds); coverage
and release are untouched and keep the platform LLVM backend and
linker.
.github/workflows/act-validation.yml
gains the same "Install mold linker" step ci.yml already had, since
its make test WITH_ACT=1 step now depends on mold being present and
previously had no provisioning step of its own.
.github/workflows/release.yml's
"Install cross" and "Build release binary" step comments no longer
claim .cargo/config.toml carries a Cranelift codegen-backend
setting or that rust-toolchain.toml specifies Cranelift for
development — both were stale once the earlier commits in this branch
moved Cranelift out to the opt-in fragment; the comments now describe
the mold linker flag only (comment-only change, confirmed with git diff that no step logic changed).
tests/makefile_contract.rs
is a contract test guarding this wiring: standard_targets_use_dev_fast
checks every individual $(CARGO) invocation line in
build/test/lint/typecheck's recipes for --config/dev-fast
references (per-line, not block-level — see Notes),
coverage_target_excludes_dev_fast checks coverage's recipe never
references dev-fast, dev_fast_fragment_exists checks the fragment
file is present, and dev_fast_targets_substitute_cargo runs
make --dry-run dev-build/dev-test with CARGO=probe-cargo to
prove $(CARGO) substitution genuinely reaches the Wave 1 block
without needing the nightly toolchain or mold installed — so an
over-eager edit to the Makefile fails locally before the estate-wide
DF-004 audit ever runs.

docs/developers-guide.md
is the single home for build-backend and linker detail: its Tooling
section describes debug builds as using the standard LLVM backend by
default, with Cranelift available through the opt-in path, and names
llvm-tools-preview and rustc-codegen-cranelift-preview as the
retained pinned-toolchain components; it also has a new "Lint
baseline" section explaining the [lints] tables' intent and the
#[expect(clippy::<lint>, reason = "...")] deferral convention.
docs/users-guide.md
carries no Cranelift or mold detail at all — a contributor concern,
not a user one — and points to the developers' guide instead, keeping
only the one fact a user of make coverage needs (it uses lld).
docs/repository-layout.md
receives the matching Cranelift-default correction.
AGENTS.md
gains a new "dev-fast is the standard development path" section,
appended after (not editing) the Wave 1 "Fast development builds"
section, stating that direct cargo invocations for development
work must pass the --config flag too, or thrash the incremental
build cache against the make-driven fingerprints; the section's own
prose backticks mold in one spot (see Notes) so the spelling gate's
scoped exemption still catches it despite a line wrap.
typos.local.toml
and its regenerated
typos.toml
close a long-standing spelling-gate drift (see Notes).

Finally,
tests/stub.rs
carries the one lint deferral needed to satisfy the newly-enabled
disallowed_methods lint.

Validation

  • cargo fmt --all under the pinned nightly: no changes (already
    formatted).
  • cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features: clean.
  • cargo test --all-targets --all-features and
    cargo test --doc --workspace --all-features: all tests pass (9
    tests in makefile_contract.rs, 1 in stub.rs).
  • make check-fmt, make lint (doc build, clippy, Whitaker Dylint
    suite), make test, and make typecheck were run for real against
    the wired Makefile — the actual proof the fragment works on the
    pinned toolchain, not just that the flag is present in the recipe
    text. All pass. make dev-build was also run for real: the
    resulting binary's .comment section
    (readelf -p .comment) shows rustc ... with cranelift and
    mold 2.40.4, confirming the $(CARGO)-substituted Wave 1 targets
    are genuinely wired, not merely textual.
  • Separately, cargo --config tools/dev-fast/config.toml build -v --bin mpsc-log shows -Z codegen-backend=cranelift and
    -Clink-arg=-fuse-ld=mold in the actual rustc invocation.
  • Contract-test mutation testing: manually stripped --config from
    each of build, test (one of its two cargo lines), and lint in
    turn, and added it to coverage; each corresponding assertion
    failed, naming the target. Hard-coded cargo back into
    dev-build's recipe; dev_fast_targets_substitute_cargo failed
    with a message naming dev-build and quoting the unsubstituted
    dry-run output. All four mutations passed again once restored — the
    Makefile came back byte-identical to the pre-mutation copy after
    each restore.
  • make rust-audit (cargo audit): no vulnerabilities found.
  • make markdownlint (spelling and Markdown lint, including
    make spelling's own drift check): passes end-to-end, the
    first time on this branch. See Notes for the drift resolution and
    its spot-check.

Notes

  • Sponsor decision: dev-fast is the standard development path, not
    an opt-in side path. Fast test and lint cycles benefit everyone,
    not only agents or contributors who remember to call
    make dev-build/make dev-test themselves, so the standard
    build, test, lint, and typecheck targets now apply the
    fragment automatically.
  • Cross-application closing round: this pull request closes two
    findings raised on sibling campaign PRs and cross-applied here.
    (1) dev-build/dev-test hard-coded cargo instead of the
    Makefile's own injectable $(CARGO) variable (already defined at
    the top, CARGO ?= cargo) — fixed to match the standard targets'
    own idiom. This changes the Wave 1 block's bytes; the final block,
    from DEV_FAST_CONFIG through the last recipe line, reads:
    DEV_FAST_CONFIG ?= tools/dev-fast/config.toml / blank /
    .PHONY: dev-build dev-test /
    dev-build: ## Build debug binaries with Cranelift and mold /
    \t$(CARGO) --config "$(DEV_FAST_CONFIG)" build / blank /
    dev-test: ## Run tests with Cranelift and mold /
    \t$(CARGO) --config "$(DEV_FAST_CONFIG)" test (recipe lines are
    tabs), so the parabellum-wave-1 branch's own copy can be mirrored
    byte-identically. (2) A sibling PR's mutation testing found that
    whole-recipe-block checking can pass even when one cargo line in a
    multi-line recipe loses --config, because a surviving flag on
    another line masks it; this repository's contract test was already
    per-line from an earlier commit on this branch (the finding
    originated here), so item 2 was a verified no-op plus the addition
    of the dev_fast_targets_substitute_cargo dry-run cases described
    above.
  • Spelling-gate drift, resolved: make spelling's own drift check
    (git diff --exit-code -- typos.toml after regeneration) has
    failed on this branch throughout this remediation. Cause: the
    committed typos.toml carried an inline-code-span exemption
    ("`[^`\n]+`" in extend-ignore-re) that the shared dictionary
    no longer supplies and typos.local.toml never requested, so
    regeneration silently dropped the line. Fixed at the sponsor's
    direction by restoring that exemption in typos.local.toml
    (matching the estate precedent already landed on evert and
    netsuke), which exposed a second, previously-masked problem:
    plain-prose mentions of "mold" (the linker) were flagged as
    misspellings of "mould" the moment the drift stopped hiding the
    real scan. Resolved with the estate's five scoped phrasings
    (-fuse-ld=mold, mold linker, Cranelift + mold,
    Cranelift and mold, backticked `mold`) rather than a bare
    word-boundary exemption, which would have silently suppressed
    unrelated genuine misspellings of "mould" too. One mention (in the
    "dev-fast is the standard development path" section this branch
    added to AGENTS.md, not the byte-identical Wave 1 block) line-wraps
    between "and" and "mold" and so didn't match the "Cranelift and
    mold" phrasing literally; backticked instead, which is robust to
    wrapping. Spot-checked with a scratch file outside the repository,
    deleted after: a backticked misspelling and all five scoped
    phrasings stay exempt, while an unrelated bare misspelling in plain
    prose, and "the bread had mold growing on it" specifically, are
    both still flagged — confirming the exemption is narrowly scoped,
    not a blanket suppression. make markdownlint/make all now pass
    end-to-end.
  • Coverage exclusion: coverage, release, and verification builds
    deliberately keep the platform LLVM backend and linker throughout —
    coverage in particular needs lld for LLVM-tools compatibility,
    which Cranelift/mold would break. The contract test asserts this
    never regresses.
  • Recommended merge order: parabellum-wave-1 first, then this
    branch — but the two branches' hunks are kept disjoint on purpose
    (this branch never edits the Wave 1-owned blocks in Makefile,
    AGENTS.md, or tools/dev-fast/config.toml beyond the $(CARGO)
    fix reported above, and all three were reverified against
    parabellum-wave-1 throughout this work), so either merge order
    should apply cleanly once Wave 1 mirrors the $(CARGO) block bytes.
  • Deviation, now resolved: .cargo/config.toml no longer sets
    [profile.dev] codegen-backend = "cranelift" or the matching
    [unstable] codegen-backend = true. The opt-in replacement,
    tools/dev-fast/config.toml, make dev-build, make dev-test,
    and the AGENTS.md section documenting them, are included in this
    pull request, kept in step with the parabellum-wave-1 branch, so
    the pull request is self-contained and merges cleanly regardless of
    which of the two lands first.
  • Comment accuracy: .github/workflows/release.yml retained two
    comments from before Cranelift moved out to the opt-in fragment,
    claiming .cargo/config.toml still set a Cranelift codegen backend
    and that the pinned nightly toolchain specified Cranelift for
    development. Both are now corrected to describe the mold linker
    flag only; verified with git diff that no run:/env: step
    logic changed, comments only. Checked ci.yml's bare
    whitaker-installer --cranelift invocation too: it has no
    explanatory comment attached and refers to Whitaker's own installer
    build, unrelated to this repository's .cargo/config.toml, so it
    was left as-is.
  • Fragment refresh: tools/dev-fast/config.toml itself carried two
    stale comments — a "copy this fragment to..." instruction, nonsense
    once the file is already in place, and a mis-statement of how Cargo
    resolves rustflags across [target.*] entries and [build].
    Replaced verbatim with the current canon bytes
    (platform-standards/canon/build/rust/dev-fast.toml); diffed
    byte-identical to that canon source afterwards, and confirmed with
    git diff that no configuration key changed, comments only.
  • #[expect] site: tests/stub.rs annotates the disposable stub test
    with #[expect(clippy::disallowed_methods, reason = "disposable stub reads Cargo's own env var directly; delete with this file")],
    because the test's only purpose is to assert that Cargo populates
    CARGO_MANIFEST_DIR, which requires reading the real environment
    directly. The stub (and its lint deferral) is intended to be
    deleted once real tests exist, per its own doc comment.
  • rust-toolchain.toml's component list keeps llvm-tools-preview
    and rustc-codegen-cranelift-preview: the phase 2 rule (TC-002)
    only requires the component list to include rustfmt, clippy,
    and rust-analyzer, not match them exactly, and dropping the extras
    would have broken make coverage (cargo llvm-cov) and the
    dev-fast path. The developers' guide names these retained
    components explicitly and states that only the default per-build
    activation was removed, not the capability.
  • Documentation: previously the [lints] tables in Cargo.toml were
    an undocumented maintainer convention. docs/developers-guide.md
    now has a "Lint baseline" section summarising intent and pointing
    at Cargo.toml as authoritative, rather than duplicating the lint
    list, and explaining why deferrals use #[expect] rather than
    allow.
  • Header wording: .rustfmt.toml's header comment previously told the
    reader to "copy this file to the repository root as .rustfmt.toml"
    — a canon-template instruction that reads as nonsense once it has
    already been copied there. Canon corrected the header to describe
    the file's role in place instead, so this pull request updates
    .rustfmt.toml to match; no configuration keys changed.
  • Implementation note for future maintainers: rstest 0.26 silently
    generates zero tests for an entire #[rstest] case list when a
    case is named exactly test (collides internally with #[test]
    generation, with no compile error or warning). The contract test's
    "test" target case is named test_target instead, documented
    inline.
  • No Concordat rule validation was run locally, per instruction;
    validation happens centrally afterwards.

Adopt the estate's canonical rustfmt and clippy configuration files
verbatim, and fill in the lint gaps left by the greenfield template so
Cargo.toml carries every clippy, rust, and rustdoc lint from the
baseline policy at the required level.

Trim the toolchain's component list to the canonical
rustfmt/clippy/rust-analyzer set, keeping the repository's existing
dated nightly pin. Drop the Cranelift codegen backend from
.cargo/config.toml: its canonical home is the opt-in
tools/dev-fast/config.toml added by a separate baseline pull request,
not the repository's default build configuration.
The freshly widened clippy lint set denies std::env::var_os outside
an injected environment reader. The generated-template stub test
reads CARGO_MANIFEST_DIR directly to assert Cargo populated it, which
is the one legitimate reason to touch the real environment here.
Annotate the call with #[expect(clippy::disallowed_methods, ...)]
rather than allow, so the lint fires again the moment the stub is
deleted as its own doc comment already instructs.

Reviewer's Guide

Aligns mpsc-log with the estate’s phase 2 Rust baseline by adopting canonical rustfmt/clippy configs, tightening the pinned toolchain components, enabling a fuller set of clippy/rust/rustdoc lints, removing non-canonical Cranelift dev settings, and adding a single documented lint deferral in the stub test for environment-variable access.

File-Level Changes

Change Details Files
Adopt canonical clippy configuration and enforce disallowed environment methods via lint.
  • Reword clippy configuration header to mark it as the canonical estate config and explain threshold rationale.
  • Keep existing complexity/size thresholds and test allowance, but extend configuration with a disallowed-methods list for std::env access.
  • Document the environment-injection mandate and the use of #[expect(clippy::disallowed_methods, reason = "..")] at sanctioned sites.
clippy.toml
Enable additional clippy, rust, and rustdoc lints to match the phase 2 baseline.
  • Tighten clippy lint configuration by denying disallowed_methods and missing_assert_message in the lints table.
  • Add rust lints for unknown_lints, renamed_and_removed_lints, and forbid unsafe_code.
  • Expand rustdoc lints to deny broken/private intra-doc links, bare URLs, invalid HTML tags and codeblock attributes, and unescaped backticks.
Cargo.toml
Constrain the Rust toolchain pin to canonical components only.
  • Retain the nightly-2026-05-28 channel pin.
  • Replace the broader component list (including llvm-tools and Cranelift) with the minimal canonical set: rustfmt, clippy, and rust-analyzer.
rust-toolchain.toml
Remove non-canonical Cranelift dev-profile configuration from the default cargo config.
  • Drop [unstable] codegen-backend = true from the repository’s default cargo config.
  • Remove the [profile.dev] codegen-backend = "cranelift" override so dev builds no longer force Cranelift.
  • Keep existing target linker and rustflags settings unchanged.
.cargo/config.toml
Adopt canonical rustfmt configuration requiring nightly and doc-comment formatting.
  • Add a header comment marking the rustfmt file as the canonical estate configuration and explaining the nightly requirement via unstable_features = true.
  • Retain existing rustfmt options (comment_width and format_code_in_doc_comments).
.rustfmt.toml
Add a documented clippy expect for the stub test’s direct environment-variable read.
  • Annotate the stub test with #[expect(clippy::disallowed_methods, reason = "disposable stub reads Cargo's own env var directly; delete with this file")].
  • Keep the test body as-is, still asserting that CARGO_MANIFEST_DIR is set via std::env::var_os.

Getting Help

TC-002 requires the toolchain's components list to include rustfmt,
clippy, and rust-analyzer; it does not require an exact match. The
previous commit dropped llvm-tools-preview and
rustc-codegen-cranelift-preview, which the repository needs for
coverage (cargo llvm-cov) and dev-fast builds respectively. Restore
both and add only the previously missing rust-analyzer entry.

Comment thread .rustfmt.toml Outdated
leynos added 5 commits August 13, 2026 21:18
The previous commit removed the default Cranelift codegen backend
from .cargo/config.toml but left no opt-in replacement on this
branch, and the developers' and users' guides still claimed debug
builds use Cranelift by default. Bring in the opt-in
tools/dev-fast/config.toml fragment, and the AGENTS.md and Makefile
additions that wire it up (make dev-build, make dev-test), byte-for-
byte from the parabellum-wave-1 branch so the two baseline pull
requests merge cleanly whichever lands first.

Update the developers' guide, users' guide, and repository-layout
reference to describe debug builds as using the standard LLVM
backend by default, with Cranelift available only through the
explicit opt-in path. The mold-linker configuration in
.cargo/config.toml is unaffected and still described accurately.
Cargo.toml's clippy, rust, and rustdoc lint tables encode the
estate's phase 2 baseline, but nothing explained that convention to a
contributor reading the developer guide. Add a Lint baseline section
that points at Cargo.toml as the authoritative source rather than
duplicating its contents, explains the #[expect(...)] deferral
convention and why it is preferred over allow, and summarises what
clippy.toml and the pinned toolchain each contribute.
The developer and user guides described the opt-in dev-fast path
without saying which toolchain components make it possible, and the
user guide did not distinguish "the default activation was removed"
from "the capability is gone". Name llvm-tools-preview and
rustc-codegen-cranelift-preview as the retained pinned-toolchain
components in the developer guide, and state plainly that
tools/dev-fast/config.toml is what switches the backend on for a
given invocation, not the toolchain pin. Make the user guide say
explicitly that only the automatic per-build activation was removed;
the Cranelift component remains installed and available through the
opt-in make targets.
Local build backend and linker configuration are contributor
concerns, not something a user of the generated project needs to
know when rendering and using it. Remove every mention of Cranelift
and mold from the users' guide, including the mold entry in its
installation prerequisites list, and point readers at the developers'
guide instead of duplicating the detail there. Keep the one genuinely
user-relevant fact, that make coverage uses lld, since it explains
why cargo llvm-cov behaves differently from a normal build.
The header comment still told a reader to "copy this file to the
repository root as .rustfmt.toml", a canon-template instruction that
makes no sense once it has already been copied there. Canon has been
corrected to describe the file's role in place instead of the
now-satisfied copying step. Bring .rustfmt.toml back to byte identity
with the corrected canon source; no key changes.

@coderabbitai re:

Testing (Compile-Time / Ui) ⚠️ Warning The PR adds compile-time Clippy, Rust, and rustdoc lint enforcement, but the repository has no trybuild, compile-fail, or UI test for these changed diagnostics. Add focused trybuild fixtures and expected diagnostics for the new lint behaviour; keep the runtime stub test as separate coverage.

It is not our job to test if clippy is working as advertised. Tests relating to third-party tools should only be present where the local configuration describes logical behaviour that builds on the standard tool behaviour or where interaction between the external tool and our code is heavily dependant on our own code's behaviour.

Tip

For best results, initiate chat on the files or code changes.

@leynos Treat the lint tool behaviour as an upstream responsibility. Require repository tests only for local configuration policy or repository-specific interaction with the tool.

Withdraw the compile-time/UI test finding.

Learning: For the `leynos/mpsc-log` Rust repository, do not request trybuild, compile-fail, UI, or equivalent tests solely to validate standard Clippy, Rust, or rustdoc diagnostics. Request tests for third-party tooling only when local configuration defines additional logical behaviour or when tool behaviour materially depends on repository code.

Learning: For the Netsuke Rust repository, do not request compile-fail, UI, or equivalent lint-harness tests that validate Whitaker’s diagnostic behaviour. Whitaker capabilities are treated as an upstream responsibility. Netsuke-owned tests may validate its own `dylint.toml` exclusion configuration and boundary policy.

Sponsor decision: dev-fast is the standard development path, not an
opt-in side path, because fast test and lint cycles benefit everyone,
not only agents who remember to call make dev-build/dev-test. Pass
--config "$(DEV_FAST_CONFIG)" to every cargo invocation in build,
test, lint, and typecheck, so ordinary development work gets
Cranelift and mold automatically. coverage, release, and verification
builds are untouched and keep the platform LLVM backend and linker.

Add the DEV_FAST_CONFIG variable definition near the top of the file
so the standard targets, which sit above the Wave 1 block, can see it
without relying on GNU Make's later-definition-is-still-visible
behaviour at recipe-execution time. The Wave 1 block's own
DEV_FAST_CONFIG ?= assignment further down is a no-op once the
variable is already set, so that block's hunk is untouched and stays
byte-identical to the parabellum-wave-1 branch.

build's cargo invocation lives in the target/%/$(TARGET) pattern
rule, shared with release; the --config flag is conditional on the
target not being a release build, so release keeps the supported
backend.
make test now always compiles through tools/dev-fast/config.toml,
which links with mold; the act-validation workflow's runner never
installed it, unlike the main CI workflow. This gap predates the
dev-fast wiring in one sense (.cargo/config.toml already hard-codes
mold as the default linker for every build), but it becomes acute now
that the standard test target routes through it explicitly. Add the
same "Install mold linker" step ci.yml already has, so make test
WITH_ACT=1 can link successfully.
Append a new AGENTS.md section, after and separate from the Wave 1
"Fast development builds" section (left untouched so that hunk stays
byte-identical to the parabellum-wave-1 branch), stating plainly that
the standard make build/test/lint/typecheck targets already pass
--config tools/dev-fast/config.toml, and that direct cargo
invocations for the same purposes must pass the flag too or thrash
the incremental build cache against the make-driven fingerprints.
Guard the sponsor-mandated convention with a local test rather than
relying solely on the estate-wide DF-004 audit: tests/makefile_contract.rs
reads the Makefile textually and asserts that build, test, lint, and
typecheck reference --config and tools/dev-fast/config.toml, that
coverage never does, and that the fragment file exists. An over-eager
edit to the Makefile now fails locally before the estate audit ever
runs.

Read the Makefile through a cap_std::fs::Dir capability handle rather
than std::fs directly, and propagate I/O errors instead of panicking
inside the plain helper functions, so the repository's Whitaker
Dylint suite (no_std_fs_operations, no_unwrap_or_else_panic) and
clippy's expect_used lint both pass; expect() is only called at
#[test]/#[rstest] call sites, which clippy.toml's
allow-expect-in-tests exempts.

Add rstest and cap-std as dev-dependencies. Note for future
maintainers: rstest 0.26 silently drops an entire #[rstest] case list
when a case is named exactly `test` (collides with #[test]
generation); the "test" case here is named test_target instead.
A manual regression check (strip --config from test's nextest-run
line, leave it on the doc-test line) passed the contract test
unexpectedly: standard_targets_use_dev_fast checked the whole recipe
block for --config and dev-fast, so a surviving flag on one cargo
call masked a dropped flag on another in the same target. Filter the
recipe to its individual $(CARGO) invocation lines and assert on each
one, so every cargo call in a standard target is checked, not just
the target as a whole.

Manually verified this branch's wiring is real, not merely textual:
cargo --config tools/dev-fast/config.toml build -v shows
-Z codegen-backend=cranelift and -Clink-arg=-fuse-ld=mold in the
actual rustc invocation, matching the earlier readelf confirmation on
the resulting binary.
.github/workflows/release.yml still described .cargo/config.toml as
carrying a Cranelift codegen-backend setting and rust-toolchain.toml
as specifying Cranelift for development. Both claims predate the
Wave 2+3 baseline work: .cargo/config.toml now configures only the
Linux mold linker, and Cranelift lives solely in the opt-in
tools/dev-fast/config.toml, which release never reads. Reword the
"Install cross" and "Build release binary" step comments to describe
the mold linker flag only, and drop the stale toolchain claim.
Comment-only change; no step logic differs.
The deployed fragment still carried two stale comments: a "copy this
fragment to tools/dev-fast/config.toml" instruction, nonsensical once
the file is already there, and a mis-statement of how Cargo resolves
rustflags across [target.*] entries and [build]. Canon has corrected
both. Replace the file verbatim with the current canon bytes from
platform-standards/canon/build/rust/dev-fast.toml; no configuration
key changed.
The appended dev-build and dev-test recipes hard-coded cargo even
though the Makefile already exposes an injectable CARGO variable
(CARGO ?= cargo, defined at the top). Anything that overrides CARGO,
such as a wrapper script or a cross-compilation shim, silently
bypassed it for these two targets. Use $(CARGO) instead, matching
statelet's landed shape and the standard build/test/lint/typecheck
targets, which already use it. Change is confined to the two recipe
lines; nothing else in the Wave 1 block moved.
Cross-application review confirmed this repository's per-line
recipe-checking approach (already in place from an earlier commit)
holds; add the remaining coverage suggested from that review.
dev_fast_targets_substitute_cargo runs
`make --dry-run dev-build|dev-test CARGO=probe-cargo` via
std::process::Command and asserts probe-cargo, --config, and a
dev-fast reference appear in that order in the emitted command line —
proving $(CARGO) substitution actually works in the Wave 1 block
without needing the nightly toolchain or mold installed, since
--dry-run never executes the recipe.

Verified by mutation: stripping --config from one line of test's
two-line recipe still fails standard_targets_use_dev_fast naming the
target (already covered); hard-coding cargo back into dev-build's
recipe fails the new substitution case with a message naming
dev-build and quoting the unsubstituted dry-run output; both restored
cleanly afterwards.
make spelling's own drift check has failed on this branch throughout
this remediation because the committed typos.toml carried an inline-
code-span exemption ("`[^`\n]+`" in extend-ignore-re) that the shared
dictionary no longer supplies and typos.local.toml never requested,
so regeneration silently dropped the line. Restore the exemption
locally, with a rationale comment, matching the estate precedent
already landed on evert and netsuke.

Regenerating typos.toml with the restored pattern exposed a second,
previously-masked problem: three plain-prose mentions of "mold" (the
linker tool) were never wrapped in backticks, so the en-GB dictionary
flagged them as misspellings of "mould" the moment the drift check
stopped hiding the real scan. One of the three sits inside AGENTS.md's
Wave 1-owned "Fast development builds" block, which this branch does
not edit, so a backtick fix was not available there; add a second,
narrowly-scoped word-boundary exemption for "mold" instead, with a
comment explaining it names the linker (rui314/mold), not a spelling
error. Spot-checked with a scratch file outside the repository: a
backticked misspelling stays exempt, bare "mold" in prose is now
exempt, and an unrelated bare misspelling in prose is still flagged,
confirming the exemption is scoped correctly. Regenerated typos.toml
via the repository's own generator so the committed and regenerated
files agree.
The bare word-boundary exemption added in the previous commit was
exactly the blanket pattern the estate's scoping round replaced
elsewhere, and it was wrong here: it silently exempted any prose
mention of "mold", including unrelated genuine misspellings of
"mould". Replace it with the estate's five scoped patterns
(-fuse-ld=mold, mold linker, Cranelift + mold, Cranelift and mold,
backticked `mold`) alongside the existing backtick-span exemption.

Checked every "mold" mention against the five patterns: all but one
already match; the exception is a "Cranelift and\nmold" phrase in
AGENTS.md's "dev-fast is the standard development path" section
(added by an earlier commit on this branch, not the byte-identical
Wave 1 block) that line-wraps between "and" and "mold" and so does
not match "Cranelift and mold" literally. Backtick `mold` there
instead, which is robust to wrapping and was already the preferred
fix in every other affected file.
