axon-lang 2.11.0

AXON — the formal cognitive language: a deterministic, proof-carrying AI runtime. Native Rust lexer/parser/type-checker/IR generator (re-exported from axon-frontend) plus the runtime: typed channels (π-calculus mobility, capability extrusion), algebraic effects via Free Monad CPS handlers, lease kernel + reconcile loop, the Epistemic Security Kernel, Trust Types, Proof-Carrying Code (independently verifiable proof objects), and the closed-catalog extension mechanism. Crate publishes as `axon-lang`; library import is `use axon::*` so existing call sites keep working unchanged.
Documentation
//! §Fase 51.b — the PCC checker's independent effect specification.
//!
//! Proof-Carrying Code requires the consumer's checker to embed the
//! PROPERTY SPECIFICATION it verifies — it cannot delegate to the
//! producer's (compiler's) internal logic, or it would not be
//! independent (D51.2). This module is the checker's own statement of
//! "what a well-formed effect row is": the closed base-effect catalog
//! + the qualifier discipline.
//!
//! **Source of truth + drift:** this catalog mirrors
//! `axon_frontend::type_checker::VALID_EFFECTS` (private const) +
//! the §λ-L-E Fase 11.a qualifier rules. axon-frontend's catalog is
//! the canonical compiler-side spec; this is the checker-side spec.
//! They MUST agree. §51.f (which exposes `VALID_EFFECTS` as `pub` for
//! the `axon pcc verify` CLI) adds the cross-crate drift gate asserting
//! equality. Until then the equality is maintained by review + the
//! `EFFECT_BASES` doc-comment pin. The stream-qualifier catalog
//! ([`crate::stream_effect::BACKPRESSURE_CATALOG`]) IS public and is
//! referenced directly (no duplication needed there).

/// The closed catalog of valid base effects. Mirror of

/// `base` is in this set.
