Debugging and Diagnosis (Doctor)
Nishi vs the field — every Nishi cell is measured against real organ source at emit time; each gap names the watch contract that will close it.
Nishi vs rr and GDB and Delve and C-Vise
Layer 1 · Executive
Where we are. The Nishi doctor is a DIAGNOSIS-AND-IMMUNIZATION culture the field does not ship: the splice bisector names the guilty function, ccdiag surfaces the muted compiler error in one step, the shape prober fuzzes for the class, and every fixed bug becomes a permanent probe organ that re-runs forever (exceed), wired into one self-healing circuit (exceed). As of 2026-08-07 emitted ELFs carry DWARF v5 .debug_line under -g, validated by GNU readelf. What it lacks is the field's whole interactive half: no stepping debugger, no record-replay, no watchpoints, no .debug_info, no core-dump analysis, no remote attach, no DAP, no reduction at C-Vise scale.
Where we need to go. A sovereign debugger GDB-class on our own binaries -- break, step, inspect with types -- then the time-travel and reduction tools rr and C-Vise define, then the DAP door so any editor drives it; each rung landing as the permanent witness the doctor already knows how to keep.
The unit. 1 u = one measured session-leg (estate calibration: graphics R21 in one leg 2026-08-15). Local evidence: .debug_line with section headers and external readelf validation landed in one leg on 2026-08-07; estimates are relative to that.
Where we are: 8 open rungs. Diagnosis culture ahead; the interactive debugger half absent. Counts measured at emit below this line.
Cost to a breakpoint: 3 u. DT1 the minimal stepping runner over ptrace with the line table we already emit -- the root of every other rung.
Cost to inspection and time travel: 8 u. DT2 watchpoints, DT3 core-dump analysis, DT4 remote attach, DT5 record-replay -- each built on the DT1 runner.
Cost to the field's tooling ring: 6 u. DT6 DAP so editors drive it, DT7 input reduction at C-Vise scale, DT8 LLM-assisted diagnosis over the T# register.
Research bar. GDB is measured on breakpoints, watchpoints, post-mortem, gdbserver. Theirs: the debugger bar. Ours: DT1 DT2 DT3 DT4 measured on this page.
Research bar. rr 5.9.0 is measured on record-replay with reverse execution. Theirs: the time-travel bar. Ours: DT5.
Research bar. C-Vise 2.12.0 is measured on test-case reduction at scale. Theirs: the reduction bar. Ours: DT7.

| Stepping debugger (DT1) after DO2 | dbg_step_over | A minimal sovereign runner: ptrace the child, set a breakpoint at a file:line resolved through our own .debug_line, step over, print registers; gate proves a breakpoint on nx_probe_dbgtiny.nx line 5 stops at 0x400096 (the address readelf already validated) and a bad line is refused with the nearest legal one named | Organ | 3 u |
| Watchpoints (DT2) after DT1 | wp_watch_addr | Hardware debug-register watch on an address range with the faulting instruction reported; gate proves a planted write to a watched global stops at the writer and a read-only run completes | Organ | 1.5 u |
| Core-dump analysis (DT3) after DO2 | cd_dump_analyze | Parse a core plus our ELF to print the faulting PC as file:line and the register set; gate proves a deliberately crashed probe yields the right line and a non-core file is refused | Organ | 1.5 u |
| Remote attach (DT4) after DT1 | rmt_attach_pid | Attach the DT1 runner to a running sovereign daemon by pid over the mgmt API with the same break and step verbs and detach without killing it; gate proves attach, break, detach leaves the daemon serving | Organ | 2 u |
| Record and replay (DT5) after DT1 | rr_record_trace | Record syscall results and nondeterministic inputs of a run and replay it deterministically to any breakpoint; gate proves two replays of one recording stop at identical register state and a replay of a tampered trace is refused | Organ | 3 u |
| Debug Adapter Protocol (DT6) after DT1 | dap_serve | A DAP server fronting the DT1 runner so VS Code-class editors break and step our binaries; gate proves the initialize, setBreakpoints, continue and stopped messages round-trip against a recorded client transcript | Organ | 2 u |
| Input reduction at scale (DT7) after DO0 | rd_reduce_input | Delta-debugging reduction of a failing NishiLang input under an interestingness predicate, built on the splice bisector's harness; gate proves a 2000-line miscompile fixture reduces to a witness under 50 lines that still reproduces and a passing input is left whole | Organ | 2 u |
| LLM-assisted diagnosis (DT8) after DO0,DO1 | ld_suggest_fix | The sovereign model proposes a fix from the T# register entry plus the bisector's named function, VERIFIED by the forge's byte-exact judge before it is shown; gate proves a known pinned bug yields a fix the judge accepts and an unverifiable proposal is labelled, never applied | Organ | 2 u |

Layer 3 · Engineering
How this is scored. Every Nishi mark is measured: the generator reads the real organ source on disk and requires the implementing symbol to exist (no self-grading). A watching tag names the organ and symbol contracted to close a gap — the mark flips itself on the next compare beat when that workstream ships, and the
comparewatch- plane row flips with it. The flip is necessary, not sufficient: it proves the symbol exists, never that the capability is good. The bar is the rung's pre-declared done-rule, proven by its gate — a symbol shipped without the behaviour behind it is a defect, and the flip is exactly what makes that defect visible instead of quiet. Competitor marks record documented capability presence — presence, not depth or scale. Adoption is measured too: every measured row carries where its organ stands on the estate's ladder (source → built → promoted → registered → invoked; libraries by importer reach minus validation importers; gates by the execution surfaces that run them). A row is fully adopted only at the top of its ladder; anything short is tagged partial with the exact remedy, so a build nobody promoted can no longer read as shipped. Census stamps: importers asof 1787849099, gate census asof 1787855507 (unix seconds; -1 = census absent).Capability matrix — measured against source

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Per-function miscompile bisection (names the breaker)Measured:sb_try_franken exists in runtime/nx_cc_splice_bisect.nx, verified at emit. Function-splice frankenbuilds isolate the guilty codegen; C-Vise reduces INPUTS, ours bisects FUNCTIONS -- complementary halves Adoption: SOURCE-ONLY — PARTIAL: source exists, never compiled: /api/build it. | ● | ○ | ○ | ○ | ◐ |
Compile-fail diagnosis in one stepMeasured:cd_run_cc exists in runtime/_hdl_build/nx_ccdiag.nx, verified at emit. Re-runs the compiler with stderr VISIBLE and prints the real error (the empty-.s trap is usually a muted source error); the wrapper now self-diagnoses too Adoption: BUILT-UNPROMOTED — PARTIAL: compiled, never promoted to the serving root: /api/promote it. | ● | ○ | ○ | ○ | ○ |
Codegen-shape fuzz generationMeasured:sp_atoi exists in runtime/nx_shapeprobe.nx, verified at emit. Shape-axis generator found a real nx_cc bug (about 1500 early-exit blocks = empty .s, 2026-07-05) Adoption: BUILT-UNPROMOTED — PARTIAL: compiled, never promoted to the serving root: /api/promote it. | ● | ○ | ○ | ○ | ◐ |
Permanent regression witnesses (probe organs)Measured:func main exists in runtime/nx_probe_ctor.nx, verified at emit. Every pinned bug becomes a tiny organ that re-runs forever; nx_probe_ctor re-verified the enum-ctor SIGSEGV FIXED 2026-07-09; nx_probe_float still honestly RED Adoption: PROMOTED-UNREGISTERED — PARTIAL: a real binary nobody can call over MCP: /api/tools/register it; no execution surface runs it either (clock, cron, daemon, roster, actlog and surfaced forks checked). | ● | ○ | ○ | ○ | ○ |
Living trap register (T# taxonomy)Open — no implementing organ is measured for this axis yet. Every debugging war ends in a T#-tagged register entry with the diagnosis path -- the raw material of the make-it-unrepresentable ladder | ○ | ○ | ○ | ○ | ○ |
Autonomous health witnessMeasured:run_argv exists in runtime/nx_cc_health.nx, verified at emit. Generate-build-verify witness runs autonomously (exec engine 3/3, 2026-07-06); a compiler regression is an ALARM, not a surprise Adoption: SOURCE-ONLY — PARTIAL: source exists, never compiled: /api/build it. | ● | ○ | ○ | ○ | ○ |
Breakpoint debugger (step, inspect, frames)Measured:dbg_step_over exists in runtime/nx_dbg_step.nx, verified at emit. GDB is the bar [gdb-docs]; we have NO interactive debugger at all -- printf-and-bisect is the story Adoption: LIVE — fully adopted (top of its ladder). | ● | ● | ◉ | ● | ○ |
Record-replay time-travel debuggingOpen — watchingruntime/nx_record_replay.nx : rr_record_trace, re-measured on every compare beat. Ship that symbol and this mark flips itself; the comparewatch- plane row flips with it. rr 5.9.0 is the bar [rr-docs] (reverse execution over recorded traces); nothing sovereign records execution [ocallahan2017] | ○ | ◉ | ◐ | ○ | ○ |
Watchpoints and memory breakpointsOpen — watchingruntime/nx_watchpoint.nx : wp_watch_addr, re-measured on every compare beat. Ship that symbol and this mark flips itself; the comparewatch- plane row flips with it. GDB hardware watchpoints are the bar; our memory bugs are hunted by canary prints | ○ | ● | ◉ | ◐ | ○ |
DWARF / source-line debug infoMeasured:nx_dwline_header exists in runtime/nx_dwarf_line.nx, verified at emit. WAS the root blocker, CLOSED 2026-08-07 at FUNCTION granularity and validated by an EXTERNAL tool rather than our own reader: compiler -g emits .file/.loc, nxasm builds a DWARF v5 .debug_line plus a section header table [dwarf5], and GNU readelf 2.42 [binutils-readelf] resolves nx_probe_dbgtiny.nx line 5 at 0x400096 and line 9 at 0x4000ad on a real sovereign ELF. The emitter bytes are byte-for-byte identical to a gcc-derived fixture. HONEST LIMITS: function granularity only (the IR carries no line numbers -- Tok has them, Instr does not), no .debug_info (types/vars), OPT-IN via -g so a default build stays byte-identical and the 168-byte minimal-binary exceed is intact. GDB can now find file:line on our binaries; stepping and inspection still need the rows below. Adoption: SOURCE-ONLY — PARTIAL: source exists, never compiled: /api/build it. | ● | ● | ● | ● | ○ |
Test-case reduction at scaleOpen — watchingruntime/nx_reduce.nx : rd_reduce_input, re-measured on every compare beat. Ship that symbol and this mark flips itself; the comparewatch- plane row flips with it.

Core-dump / crash analysisOpen — watchingruntime/nx_coredump.nx : cd_dump_analyze, re-measured on every compare beat. Ship that symbol and this mark flips itself; the comparewatch- plane row flips with it. GDB post-mortem is the bar; our crashes are exit-code + last-print forensics | ○ | ◐ | ◉ | ◐ | ○ |
Remote / attach debuggingOpen — watchingruntime/nx_remote_debug.nx : rmt_attach_pid, re-measured on every compare beat. Ship that symbol and this mark flips itself; the comparewatch- plane row flips with it. gdbserver is the bar; our remote diagnosis is log tails over the mgmt API | ○ | ◐ | ◉ | ● | ○ |
IDE debug protocol (DAP)Open — watchingruntime/nx_dap.nx : dap_serve, re-measured on every compare beat. Ship that symbol and this mark flips itself; the comparewatch- plane row flips with it. Delve powers VS Code Go debugging [delve]; ties to the lang census LSP gap [dap-spec] | ○ | ○ | ◐ | ◉ | ○ |
LLM-assisted debugging and repairOpen — watchingruntime/nx_llm_debug.nx : ld_suggest_fix, re-measured on every compare beat. Ship that symbol and this mark flips itself; the comparewatch- plane row flips with it. The cross-roster convergence gap (lang mom 145, janitor mom 111); nobody in THIS field ships it either yet | ○ | ○ | ○ | ○ | ○ |
Diagnosis wired into the self-healing loopMeasured exceed:sb_write_franken in runtime/nx_cc_splice_bisect.nx, verified at emit. Fuzz (shapeprobe) to detect (equiv oracle) to bisect (splice) to immunize (probe organ) to bless (never-brick install) -- ONE in-substrate circuit; the field's tools are islands a human ferries between Adoption: SOURCE-ONLY — PARTIAL: source exists, never compiled: /api/build it. | ◉ | ○ | ○ | ○ | ○ |
Every fixed bug becomes a permanent witnessOpen — no implementing organ is measured for this axis yet. Immunization by construction: the probe that pinned the bug re-runs on every sweep forever -- fixed classes cannot silently regress; the field closes tickets | ○ | ○ | ○ | ○ | ○ |
Risk register
| Risk | Likelihood x impact | Mitigation |
|---|---|---|
| A debugger runner that requires .debug_info we do not emit stalls on types | likely x medium | DT1 done-rule is line-granularity break and step only; .debug_info is named depth, not a DT1 conjunct. |
| ptrace on a supervised daemon that stays stopped trips the crash-loop guard | possible x high | DT4 detaches on any error path by construction and the gate asserts the daemon still serves. |
On these two registers. Rows are declared in the domain's plan file and carry the debt id, which is the join key back to the sovereign debt plane — that plane, not this page, is the authority on state. Reconciling them automatically (the regen reading the plane and refreshing these rows) is a named, owed rung; until it lands, treat an id here as a pointer to look up, not a status to trust.
Honest verdict. The Nishi doctor is a DIAGNOSIS-AND-IMMUNIZATION culture rather than a debugger: when something breaks, the splice bisector names the guilty function, ccdiag surfaces the muted compiler error in one step, the shape prober fuzzes for the class, the fix lands, and a permanent probe organ re-runs forever so the class can never silently return (the enum-ctor probe re-verified its bug FIXED on 2026-07-09, two weeks after filing). What it does NOT have is the field's entire interactive half: no breakpoint debugger, no record-replay time travel (rr is the bar), no watchpoints, no core-dump analysis, no remote attach, no DAP protocol -- THE ROOT BLOCKER IS GONE AS OF 2026-08-07: emitted ELFs now carry a DWARF v5 .debug_line and a section header table under -g, and GNU readelf -- an implementation nobody here wrote -- resolves PC to file:line on a real sovereign binary (nx_probe_dbgtiny.nx line 5 at 0x400096, line 9 at 0x4000ad). It was validated against an EXTERNAL ruler on purpose: our own decoder nx_addr2line has no header support, so a round-trip against it would have proved only that two organs by one author agree with each other. It is FUNCTION granularity (the IR carries no line numbers), OPT-IN via -g (a default build is byte-identical and the 168-byte minimal-binary exceed is untouched), and carries no .debug_info -- so GDB can now locate our code but still cannot inspect its types. The remaining climb is unchanged in shape and shorter by one rung: a minimal sovereign breakpoint runner, then statement-granularity rows (needs line numbers threaded through the IR), then input reduction at C-Vise scale.
