blue_lang_runtime/
pipeline.rs

1//! The blue pipeline: **parse → check → erase → run**, in that order, once.
2//!
3//! The order is the whole reason this module exists. Each stage is available
4//! separately for tools that want one, but the *default* path is a single
5//! function, because two of the four orderings are silently wrong:
6//!
7//! - **Erase before check** discards every annotation, so a program with type
8//!   errors passes. The checker sees `(define …)` and has nothing to check.
9//! - **Run before check** reports a type error after the side effects.
10//!
11//! Neither fails loudly. Both produce a green run on a program that should
12//! have been rejected. Leaving the order to each caller means every caller
13//! is one reordering away from turning the type checker off — so the order
14//! lives here, and callers ask for a *result*, not a sequence of steps.
