### Quick Wins (Parallel Track)
**Easy Targets** (can be done in parallel):
1. stdlib/http.rs (19.67% → 80%+) - 30 min
2. stdlib/path.rs (20.41% → 80%+) - 30 min
3. stdlib/fs.rs (27.59% → 80%+) - 30 min
4. lsp/analyzer.rs (3.14% → 70%+) - 1 hour
**Total Quick Wins**: ~0.5% overall coverage in 2-3 hours

## Test Strategy (EXTREME TDD)
### For Each Module:
1. **RED Phase**: Write failing tests first
- Unit tests for each function
- Property tests for invariants
- Boundary condition tests
- Error path tests
2. **GREEN Phase**: Run tests, verify they pass
- Already have implementation
- Just need to exercise existing code paths
3. **REFACTOR Phase**: Simplify complex code if needed
- Extract functions with >10 complexity
- Add helper functions
- Improve testability
### Property Test Targets:
- Mathematical functions: `pow(a, pow(b, c)) == pow(a, b*c)`
- String operations: `len(s1 + s2) == len(s1) + len(s2)`
- Collection operations: `filter(xs, p).all(p)`
- Formatting: `format(parse(code)) == format(code)` (idempotent)
