COMPILER RELIABILITY BEFORE TARGET EXPANSION.

Backend architecture

Native backend work should be gated by deterministic IR checks, platform smoke tests, and clear unsupported-target errors.

Front end

Lexer, parser, semantic checks, and deterministic diagnostics.

IR

Control flow, loads, stores, conversions, calls, and verifier coverage.

Native targets

x86_64 Windows and Linux are the primary hardening lanes.

Runtime

IO, networking, GUI, TLS, database, and experimental accelerators are separated by stability labels.
