[campaign #252] STEP 6 — MID-TIER: 20-100 file repos (~15 repos)

[hyperpolymath]

Part of #252. Blocked by step 5.

Goal

Port the mid-tier repos: 20-100 ReScript files per repo, ~15 repos in this band.

Strategy

• Per-subsystem batching preferred over per-repo whole-shot — split mid-tier repos into logical subsystems (e.g., src/parser/, src/codegen/, src/cli/) and land one PR per subsystem
• This keeps PR review surface manageable (rough target: ≤30 files per PR)
• Ownership gate per PR (verify owner=hyperpolymath, isFork=false)

Why blocked by STEP 5

Mid-tier ports surface more diverse Belt / Js / RescriptCore patterns than tail repos. Resolving those via STEP 4 stdlib fill keeps STEP-6 PRs scoped to file-port mechanics rather than mixed stdlib+port scope.

Acceptance

• ~15 repos fully migrated (one or more PRs each)
• Per-subsystem PR strategy applied consistently
• Ownership gate passes on every PR
• Memory tracker updated

Sequencing

Blocks: STEP 7 implicitly (large-repo strategy lessons learned in mid-tier inform STEP 7+8 sequencing). STEP 9 still parallel-runnable once host bindings (#245+#246) ship.

Status update — AS stdlib codegen landed; campaign waypoint shift (2026-06-01) 📌

For the campaign umbrella tracking here:

What landed (sourced):

• affinescript#522 (2026-06-01) — Sqlite.affine codegen foundation; first stdlib extern with full Deno-ESM lowering + tests end-to-end.
• affinescript#504 (2026-06-01) — 6 Deno-ESM stdlib externs (stat helpers, byte ops, importMetaUrl) + wildcard-let codegen fix; closes 6 of 10 STEP-3 gaps in standards#242.
• affinescript#463 (2026-05-30) — non-ASCII Unicode escape emit in Deno-ESM.
• affinescript#421 — stdlib/json v0.3 via hpm-json-rsr Zig FFI.

What this means for the campaign:

• Stdlib extern → Deno-ESM lowering pattern is repeatable and tested (lib/codegen_deno.ml + tests/codegen-deno/*).
• STEP 3 / STEP 4 / megaport STEP 8 prerequisites partially closed (stdlib-extern side).
• Not yet sufficient for user-module codegen / hand-port → runtime replacement on its own; user-module emit + remaining stdlib primitives (affinescript#160 Http.fetch / proof-progress(typed-wasm): spec tracker stale — TW1 partial work landed, TW4 effectively discharged, TW3 ReScript doc-drift #162 Dict/Map / etc.) remain the keystone gaps.

Action: No new mass-port being kicked off from this post — surfacing the status so campaign waypoints stay accurate. Dependent sub-tickets can re-evaluate parking once they verify their specific blockers are in the "now-closed" set above.

Re-measured 2026-08-27 — the 20–100 band contains one repo

	claimed	measured
repos in the 20–99 band	~15	1 — metadatastician/burble, 34 files

Estate .res total is 6,612 across 14 repos — but 6,428 sit in hyperpolymath/developer-ecosystem, and they are the vendored upstream compiler (rescript-ecosystem/rescript/tests 2,664, packages/core 2,950). A fork carve-out, not a port target.

Around the band: stapeln 117 above it; below it vordr 15, social-media-tools 7, jtv-lang 5, boj-server 5, rescript 8, and seven repos with 1–2.

The tier this step exists to process no longer exists. Recommend folding burble into the tail (#272) and closing.
