Key points

  • Structured JSON diagnostics with stable error codes and typed repair metadata enable AI agents to parse errors without interpreting text.
  • Subcommands zero explain and zero fix provide machine-readable diagnostic explanations and fix plans.
  • Capability-based I/O enforced at compile time; functions must declare external access via explicit capability objects.
  • Experimental v0.1.1, no mandatory GC, sub-10 KiB binaries, and no implicit async.
