Subject: [PATCH 01/23] docs(evolution): add proposal 0001 SymbolStore
 arena-based compact node storage

Design proposal for a compact, arena-based storage layer coexisting with
the Node class API: 12-byte flat nodes referenced by UInt32 indices,
per-symbol scratch arena with intern-copy into a frozen Sendable store,
and a four-phase progressive migration plan (interop, zero-materialization
read path, direct-to-arena parsing, flat serialization).

+# 0001 - SymbolStore: Arena-Based Compact Node Storage
+
+- **Proposal**: 0001
+- **Author**: Mx-Iris
+- **Status**: Draft
+- **Date**: 2026-07-23
+- **Last Updated**: 2026-07-23
+- **Branch**: `feature/symbol-store`
+- **Related**: `Documentations/SubtreeInterning.md`（前置优化：全子树 hash-consing，已合入 main `5788472`）
+
+## Summary
+
+为批量 demangle 场景引入一个与现有 `Node` 类**并存**的紧凑存储层 `SymbolStore`：所有节点平铺存放在连续缓冲（arena）中，节点间用 4 字节索引互指，每节点 12 字节、无对象头、无引用计数、无逐节点堆分配。公共 API 通过轻量值类型句柄 `NodeReference`（store 引用 + `UInt32` 索引）访问，架构对标 swift-syntax 的 SyntaxArena + 值类型句柄模式。分四个可独立交付的阶段渐进迁移，全程不破坏现有 `Node` API。
+
+## Motivation
+
+内存基线（详见 `Documentations/SubtreeInterning.md` 的实测）：
+
+- `Node` 是 `final class`，每实例 48 字节（16 字节对象头 + 2 字节 kind + 对齐 + 17 字节 `Payload` 枚举 = 41 字节，落入 48 字节 malloc 桶），逐节点独立 malloc + 引用计数；
+- 全子树 hash-consing（proposal 前置工作）已把 49k 符号语料的解析驻留从 39.5 MB 降到 12.9 MB（存活实例 76 万 → 20.2 万）；
+- 对照 C++ `Demangle::Node`：24 字节/节点 + bump allocator。class 形态的剩余差距来自对象头（16B）、malloc 分桶取整（41→48）与逐节点分配/引用计数，**在保持 class 的前提下无法消除**；
+- 全量 SwiftUI 场景（含 dyld cache local symbols）当前预计仍需 150–250 MB，目标降到 30–80 MB，并为「把整个 dyld cache 的解析结果持久化为符号数据库」铺路。
+
+单纯把 `Node` 改为带 `[Node]` 的 struct 不可行：children 数组仍是逐节点堆分配（32 字节缓冲头 + CoW 引用计数），加上大 struct 拷贝，内存与 CPU 双双倒退。struct 的真正价值在于**精确布局 + 可平铺进连续缓冲**，因此正确形态是 arena + 索引。
+
+## Detailed Design
+
+### 存储布局
+
+```swift
+@frozen struct CompactNode {          // size 12, alignment 4, 无对象头
+    var kindAndPayloadKind: UInt16    // bit 0-8: kind（~300 种，9 位）
+                                      // bit 9-11: payloadKind（6 种，3 位）
+                                      // bit 12-15: 保留
+    var payloadA: UInt32
+    var payloadB: UInt32
+}
+```
+
+`payloadA/payloadB` 按 `payloadKind` 解释（沿用现有 `Payload` 的互斥不变量：contents 与 children 不共存）：
+
+| payloadKind | payloadA | payloadB | 覆盖比例（49k 语料实测） |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `none` | — | — | 与 leaf 部分重叠 |
+| `index` | `UInt64` 低 32 位 | 高 32 位 | 少量 |
+| `text` | 字符串表 offset | 字节长度 | ~5% |
+| `oneChild` | 孩子索引 | — | ~67% |
+| `twoChildren` | 孩子 0 索引 | 孩子 1 索引 | ~12% |
+| `manyChildren` | edges 缓冲起点 | 孩子数量 | ~16% |
+
+配套缓冲（每个 store 一套）：
+
+- `nodes: ContiguousArray<CompactNode>` — 主 arena，`append` 即 bump 分配；
+- `edges: ContiguousArray<UInt32>` — 仅 3+ 孩子节点使用的孩子索引连续区段；
+- `textBytes: ContiguousArray<UInt8>` — 字符串表，全部 identifier 的 UTF-8 字节连续存放并去重；
+- intern 哈希表 — 把已实现的 hash-consing 从 `ObjectIdentifier` 键迁移为索引键：`(kindAndPayloadKind, payloadA, payloadB)` 经孩子索引规范化后即天然唯一，键就是 12 字节本身。
+
+容量边界：`UInt32` 索引上限 42.9 亿节点、字符串表 4 GB——对单个 store（哪怕整个 dyld cache）远够；越界走 `precondition` 失败而非静默截断。
+
+预算核算（49k 语料，20.2 万唯一子树）：`201k × 12B ≈ 2.4 MB` 节点 + edges ~0.3 MB + 字符串表 ~0.5 MB + intern 表 ~2 MB ≈ **5–6 MB**（现状 12.9 MB）。相对 C++ 的反超点：孩子引用用 4 字节索引而非 8 字节指针。
+
+### 类型与 API 面
+
+```swift
+/// 冻结后的不可变符号库。构建完成即 Sendable，读路径零锁。
+public final class SymbolStore: Sendable {
+    public func demangleAsReference(_ mangled: String) throws(DemanglingError) -> NodeReference   // Phase 3
+    public func reference(of node: Node) -> NodeReference                                          // 导入现有树（intern 拷贝）
+}
+
+/// 轻量句柄：store 引用 + 索引，16 字节值类型。
+public struct NodeReference: Hashable, Sendable {
+    public var kind: Node.Kind { get }
+    public var text: Substring? { get }          // 借用字符串表，零拷贝
+    public var index: UInt64? { get }
+    public var children: ChildrenView { get }     // RandomAccessCollection<NodeReference>
+    public func materialize() -> Node             // 物化为现有 Node 树（互操作出口）
+    public func print(using options: DemangleOptions) -> String
+}
+```
+
+- 构建期使用 `SymbolStoreBuilder`（`~Copyable`）：单写者约束由编译器保证，`consuming func freeze() -> SymbolStore` 完成冻结——把现在靠 `NSLock` + 文档契约维持的「构建后不可变」升级为类型系统保证；
+- `Hashable`/`==` 基于 (store identity, index)：因为 store 内全量 hash-consed，索引相等 ⇔ 结构相等，比较从 O(树) 降为 O(1)；
+- 读路径后续用 `Span` / `UTF8Span`（Swift 6.2）暴露孩子区段与文本的借用视图，零分配零拷贝。
+
+### 构建流程（两代空间）
+
+1. Demangler 把节点写入**每符号复用的 scratch arena**（容量保留、每符号 `removeAll(keepingCapacity: true)`）——解析中产生的临时节点零成本丢弃，等价于 C++ 每符号销毁 `NodeFactory`；
+2. 解析成功后，从根出发把可达节点自底向上 intern 拷贝进持久 store——**去重与垃圾回收是同一个 pass**，键规范化逻辑与已合入的 `internTreeUnsafe` 完全同构；
+3. scratch 重置，处理下一符号。
+
+并行策略：每线程一个 scratch arena；持久 store 的 intern 写入初期沿用单锁（与现状一致），若成为瓶颈再演进为分片锁或每线程局部 store + 终态合并。
+
+### 渐进式迁移分期
+
+每个阶段独立可交付、测试全绿、`Node` API 始终不动：
+
+- **Phase 1 — 存储层与互操作**：`CompactNode` / `SymbolStoreBuilder` / `SymbolStore` / `NodeReference`；`reference(of:)` 导入现有 `Node` 树，`materialize()` 导出。打印/remangle 暂走物化慢路径。验收：任意树 导入→导出 与原树 `==`；导入两棵结构相等的树得到同一索引。
+- **Phase 2 — 零物化读路径**：将 `NodePrinter` / `Remangler` / `TypeDecoder` 的树访问抽象为协议（kind/text/index/children 四个只读需求），`Node` 与 `NodeReference` 双双 conform；打印与 remangle 直接从 store 读，不再物化。验收：全量 dyld cache 对齐测试在 `NodeReference` 路径下 0 失败。
+- **Phase 3 — 解析直写 arena**：`Demangler` 的节点构造抽象为存储策略（默认策略维持现有 `Node` 行为不变；store 策略直写 scratch arena），提供批量入口 `SymbolStore.demangleAsReference(_:)`。此阶段起，批量场景完全绕开 class 分配。验收：内存达标（49k 语料 ≤6 MB）、吞吐不劣于现状 1.2 倍。
+- **Phase 4（可选）— 平铺序列化**：store 的几个缓冲直接二进制序列化/反序列化（接近 memcpy 量级），支持 mmap 加载——符号数据库能力，为 RuntimeViewer 类工具缓存整个 dyld cache 的解析结果。
+
+### 与现有 NodeCache 的关系
+
+store 自带索引级 intern，store 路径不经过全局 `NodeCache`；批量用户迁移到 store 后，`NodeCache` 仅服务于一次性/精细操作场景，其增长压力自然消失。两者语义一致（结构相等 ⇔ 规范实例/索引相等）。
+
+## Source Compatibility
+
+纯增量 API，无破坏性变更。`Node`、`NodeBuilder`、`NodeCache`、`demangleAsNode` 行为全部保持。Phase 2 的协议抽象对 `NodePrinter`/`Remangler` 是内部重构，公共签名不变。
+
+## Performance Goals（验收标准）
+
+| 指标 | 目标 |
+|---|---|
+| 每节点存储 | ≤ 16 字节（设计值 12） |
+| 49k 语料总驻留 | ≤ 6 MB（现状 12.9 MB，hash-consing 前 39.5 MB） |
+| 全量 SwiftUI 场景 | ≤ 100 MB（现状预计 150–250 MB） |
+| 解析吞吐 | 不劣于现状的 1.2 倍 |
+
+基准方法沿用既有测量工程（NodeMemBench：`class_getInstanceSize` / `malloc_size` / `phys_footprint` 三角验证），增加 store 变体对照。
+
+## Alternatives Considered
+
+- **`ManagedBuffer` 尾分配 class 节点**（孩子内联到实例尾部，单次分配）：仍保留 16 字节对象头与引用计数，加权后 ~32–48 字节，被 arena 全面支配，否决；
+- **压缩 class 布局到 32 字节桶**：需手工 union 并外部化 `String`/双孩子，加权收益仅 ~1.2 倍，复杂度不成比例，否决（详见 SubtreeInterning 文档）；
+- **直接把 `Node` 重写为 struct 句柄**（swift-syntax 式整体替换）：终态最优但破坏全部公共 API 与下游（MachOSwiftSection / RuntimeViewer），不符合渐进要求；本方案 Phase 3 完成后如需要可再评估。
+
+## Future Directions
+
+- mmap 符号数据库格式版本化（magic + version + 缓冲布局描述）；
+- 分片并行 store 与终态合并；
+- `InlineArray`（SE-0453）在 scratch arena 孩子暂存区的应用；
+- `NodeReference` 层面的 `Node.Rewriter` 等价物（写时拷贝进新 store）。
+
+## Decision Log
+
+| Date | Decision | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| 2026-07-23 | Created as Draft | 基于 48B class 下限与 C++ 24B 对比分析，确定 arena + 索引句柄方向；分四阶段渐进迁移，不破坏现有 `Node` API |

Subject: [PATCH 02/23] feat(Demangling): SymbolStore arena-based compact node
 storage (proposal 0001 Phase 1)

Add a compact storage layer coexisting with the Node class API:

- CompactNode: flat 12-byte node (9-bit kind ordinal + 3-bit payload kind
  packed into UInt16, two UInt32 payload words covering index/text/inline
  1-2 children/edges range), referenced by UInt32 indices instead of
  pointers.
- SymbolStoreBuilder: noncopyable append-only builder that hash-conses
  every inserted node (child-index keys, bottom-up like
  NodeCache.internTreeUnsafe); consuming freeze() produces an immutable
  Sendable SymbolStore, so single-writer and frozen-immutability are
  enforced by the type system.
- NodeReference: 16-byte value handle with O(1) equality, mirroring Node
  accessors (kind/text/index/children) plus materialize()/print(using:)
  interop; builder.demangle(_:) bridges through a transient Node tree
  until Phase 3 parses directly into the arena.

Measured on the 49k-symbol corpus: 201,876 unique nodes (exactly matching
the NodeCache hash-consing count), 3.0 MB flat storage payload vs the
<= 6 MB Phase 1 target, zero print mismatches in a 2000-symbol parity
sample, build time on par with the Node path.

Subject: [PATCH 03/23] feat(Demangling): zero-materialization store printing
 (proposal 0001 Phase 2)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Introduce DemanglingNode, a read-only tree protocol conformed by both Node
and NodeReference, and genericize the 2179-line printer engine over it as
DemanglingPrinter<Target, SomeNode>. The printer is a pure read-only
consumer (it never constructs nodes), so the abstraction is clean: member
names match Node's API, keeping the engine body representation-agnostic.

- Public NodePrinter<Target> becomes a thin facade over
  DemanglingPrinter<Target, Node> — public API is unchanged.
- NodeReference.print(using:) now prints straight from the SymbolStore with
  zero materialization instead of rebuilding a Node tree.
- NodeReference.text mirrors Node.text, synthesizing the generic-parameter
  name for .dependentGenericParamType (the printer depends on this).
- NodePrintContext.node stays a concrete Node?; the store path passes
  `name as? Node` (nil for NodeReference), and the String target ignores
  context, so rich-target semantics on the Node path are preserved.

Verified byte-identical to the Node path across the full 49k-symbol corpus
(SwiftUI/SwiftUICore/Foundation/stdlib/Combine) x default/simplified/
synthesizeSugar: 0 mismatches. Full dyld-cache alignment and TypeDecoder
suites remain green.

Subject: [PATCH 04/23] fix(Demangling): preserve subtree sharing when
 materializing from SymbolStore

materializeNode was a naive recursive rebuild: a hash-consed subtree
referenced from multiple parents materialized into duplicate Node
instances, expanding the store's DAG into a tree. For symbols with heavy
substitution sharing this multiplies node count and defeats the
printer's per-instance memoization (printCache keys on ObjectIdentifier,
so every duplicate re-renders).

Add an index-keyed memo so each store index materializes once and shared
subtrees stay shared (===) in the rebuilt tree. New test asserts the
generic parameter subtree of $s4main1gyxxlF materializes as one shared
instance and the tree equals the Node-path result.

Subject: [PATCH 05/23] refactor(Demangling): single source of truth for
 printer-derived node helpers

isSimpleType, needSpaceBeforeType, isIdentifier(desired:), and
isSwiftModule existed twice: as concrete members on Node and as
DemanglingNode protocol-extension members. The copies were identical
today, but the generic printer engine statically dispatches to the
extension (extension members are not protocol requirements), so the
Node copy was dead weight inside the engine and a silent-drift hazard
for anything else using it.

Delete the Node copies and keep the DemanglingNode extension as the
single implementation; concrete-Node callers (including downstream
packages) resolve to the extension with identical behavior. Mark
isIdentifier/isSwiftModule @inlinable to preserve the previous
inlinability, and correct the extension doc comment that wrongly
claimed Node's concrete members take precedence in the engine.

Also document the materialize sharing guarantee and the single-copy
rule in AGENTS.md and the proposal 0001 decision log.

Subject: [PATCH 07/23] feat(Demangling): generic traversal and kind lookup
 over DemanglingNode

Genericize the tree-traversal machinery (preorder/inorder/postorder/
levelorder), the kind-lookup helpers (first(of:)/all(of:)/contains/
filter(of:)), and the identifier extraction over DemanglingNode, and
conform NodeReference to Sequence with the same preorder default as
Node. Store-backed consumers can now walk and classify subtrees without
materializing, which is what SymbolIndexStore-style bulk indexing needs.

Single-implementation rule as before: Node's Sequence conformance now
rides the generic machinery, the old Element == Node sequence extension
is retargeted to Element: DemanglingNode (source-compatible for
concrete-Node callers), and Node.identifier moves to the shared
extension. Parity test walks three symbols on both representations and
asserts identical preorder/postorder kind sequences, lookups, and
identifiers.

Subject: [PATCH 08/23] feat(Demangling): generic TypeDecoder engine over
 DemanglingNode
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Genericize the type-decoding walk as TypeDecoderEngine<Builder, SomeNode>
with the public TypeDecoder<Builder> as a source-compatible facade, plus a
new NodeReference entry that decodes straight from a SymbolStore.

The public TypeBuilder protocol is untouched: the five handoff points that
give subtrees to the builder (createTypeDecl, createProtocolDecl,
createSymbolicExtendedExistentialType, resolveOpaqueType, and the
decodeMangledType callback) pass materializedNode — a new DemanglingNode
requirement that is 'self' for Node (zero cost) and a sharing-preserving
materialization for NodeReference. The builtinTypeName case bridges
mangleAsString the same way until the Remangler is genericized.

Also move hasChildren and subscript(throwChild:) into the DemanglingNode
extension as single implementations (Node copies removed), and genericize
TypeLookupError.init(node:). Parity test decodes six manglings through
both representations with identical results.

Subject: [PATCH 09/23] feat(Demangling): store-backed remangling via
 materialization bridge
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Add mangleAsString/canMangle overloads accepting any DemanglingNode (in
particular NodeReference), bridging through materializedNode.

Deliberately NOT a generic remangler engine: the remangling walk
constructs transient helper nodes (getUnspecialized stripping in
mangleAnyNominalType/mangleBoundGenericFunction, SIL box layout wrappers
in mangleSILBoxTypeWithLayout) that flow back through mangle() with
shared substitution state — the same NodeFactory-backed design as the
C++ Remangler. A construction-free generic engine would be a redesign of
a byte-exactness-critical component for no resident-memory gain:
remangling's output is a fresh String and its cost is per-call
transient either way. The bridge materializes once with subtree sharing
preserved.

Parity test remangles four symbols through both paths with identical
output.

Subject: [PATCH 10/23] feat(Demangling): direct node construction on
 SymbolStoreBuilder

Add intern(kind:), intern(kind:text:), intern(kind:index:), and
intern(kind:children:) so index builders can construct wrapper nodes
(e.g. the .type dictionary keys SymbolIndexStore-style consumers build
around member contexts) straight in the arena, without a Node detour.
All routes share the same hash-consing tables: a directly constructed
node and an interned structurally equal Node tree collapse to one
index, covered by test.

Subject: [PATCH 11/23] feat(Demangling): expose DemanglingPrinter and
 StackSafeExecutor via @_spi(Internals)

Deep consumers (MachOSwiftSection) need to print NodeReference trees
into custom rich targets (SemanticString) and reuse the library's
stack-safety wrapper when driving the engine directly. The general
public surface (SymbolStore, NodeReference, DemanglingNode, traversal,
print/decode/remangle entries) stays plain public; the engine-level
entry points are gated behind @_spi(Internals), matching the SPI group
name MachOSwiftSection already uses across its own modules.

Verified from a client module: both symbols resolve under
@_spi(Internals) import Demangling and are invisible without it.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two changes eliminate the bulk-build overhead identified in Phase 1:

1. Demangler node-construction seam. All ~594 construction sites go
   through new createNode(...) instance methods; with internsLeaves: false
   (used by the new internal demangleAsNodeTransient entry that
   SymbolStoreBuilder.demangle now calls) they build plain uncached nodes
   — no NodeCache leaf writes, no global lock traffic, nothing retained
   after the transient tree drops. Default behavior of every public
   entry is unchanged.

2. Intern-table slimming. The builder's three dictionary tables (which
   duplicated keys: 12-byte compacts, child-index arrays, String texts)
   are replaced by open-addressing slot arrays holding 4-byte indices;
   keys are recovered from the flat buffers on comparison.

Acceptance on the live dyld-cache SwiftUI corpus (234,232 symbols,
debug build): 619,688 unique nodes in 8.75 MB flat storage (14.1 B/node
vs <=16 target, 37 B/symbol), store build 25.3s vs interning Node path
28.5s (faster than baseline; budget allowed 1.2x slower), process
footprint delta during build 9.9 MB ~= retained store + ~1 MB transient
(the old scheme's high-water was ~16 MB at one fifth this corpus size).
Acceptance test asserts per-unit storage and throughput budgets;
cache-freedom is asserted by leaf-identity (no canonicalization across
transient runs).

Subject: [PATCH 13/23] perf(Demangling): zero-copy text view and
 allocation-free text witnesses on NodeReference
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Add NodeReference.textUTF8 (zero-copy ArraySlice into the store's string
table) and promote isIdentifier(desired:)/isSwiftModule to DemanglingNode
requirements with derived defaults, so NodeReference witnesses them by
comparing string-table bytes directly — the printer's sugar-detection
checks (Swift module + Optional/Array/Dictionary identifiers) no longer
construct a String per call on the store path. Non-ASCII needles fall
back to String comparison to preserve Unicode canonical-equivalence
semantics. Parity test walks both representations and checks the
witnesses and raw bytes agree.

 - **`DemangleOptions`** (`DemangleOptions.swift`) — `OptionSet` with presets: `.default`, `.simplified`, `.interface`, `.interfaceType`, etc.
 - **`TypeDecoder<Builder>`** (`TypeDecoder.swift`) — Walks a `Node` tree and builds abstract types via the `TypeBuilder` protocol.
 - **`Node.Rewriter`** (`Node+Rewriter.swift`) — Open class for bottom-up tree rewriting. Override `visit(_:)` to transform nodes.
-- **`Node` as `Sequence`** (`Node+Sequence.swift`) — `Node` conforms to `Sequence` with preorder traversal as default. Also provides `.inorder()`, `.postorder()`, `.levelorder()`. Sequence extensions add `first(of:)`, `all(of:)`, `contains(_:)` by `Node.Kind`.
-- **`SymbolStore` / `SymbolStoreBuilder` / `NodeReference`** (`Store/`) — Arena-based compact storage for bulk demangling (evolution proposal 0001). Nodes are flat 12-byte `CompactNode` values referenced by `UInt32` indices in one contiguous buffer; the `~Copyable` builder hash-conses on insert and `consuming freeze()` produces an immutable `Sendable` store. `NodeReference` is a 16-byte value handle mirroring `Node` accessors (kind/text/index/children). `materialize()` rebuilds a standalone (non-`NodeCache`) `Node` tree with an index-keyed memo, so store-level subtree sharing survives as shared instances instead of expanding the DAG. The builder's `demangle(_:)` currently bridges through a transient `Node` tree (`internsSubtrees: false`); Phase 3 will parse directly into the arena.
-- **`DemanglingNode` / `DemanglingPrinter`** (`Store/DemanglingNode.swift`, `Node/Printer/NodePrinter.swift`) — Phase 2 read-only tree protocol conformed by both `Node` and `NodeReference` (members named to match `Node`'s API so the generic printer body is representation-agnostic). The printer engine is `DemanglingPrinter<Target, SomeNode: DemanglingNode>`; the public `NodePrinter<Target>` is a thin facade over `DemanglingPrinter<Target, Node>`, and `NodeReference.print(using:)` prints straight from the store with **zero materialization** (verified byte-identical to the `Node` path across the 49k-symbol corpus × default/simplified/synthesizeSugar). When abstracting more consumers, name protocol members to match `Node`'s and note that `NodePrintContext.node` stays a concrete `Node?` (store path passes `name as? Node` → nil). The derived helpers (`isSimpleType`, `needSpaceBeforeType`, `isIdentifier(desired:)`, `isSwiftModule`) live **only** on the `DemanglingNode` extension — do not re-add copies on `Node`: the generic engine statically dispatches to the extension, so a parallel concrete copy would silently drift.
+- **Traversal** (`Store/DemanglingNode+Sequence.swift`, `Node+Sequence.swift`) — the traversal machinery (`preorder`/`inorder`/`postorder`/`levelorder`), the kind-lookup helpers (`first(of:)`, `all(of:)`, `contains(_:)`, `filter(of:)` on `Sequence where Element: DemanglingNode`), and `identifier` are single generic implementations shared by both representations; `Node` and `NodeReference` each conform to `Sequence` with preorder as the default. Do not re-add `Node`-specific copies.
+- **`SymbolStore` / `SymbolStoreBuilder` / `NodeReference`** (`Store/`) — Arena-based compact storage for bulk demangling (evolution proposal 0001). Nodes are flat 12-byte `CompactNode` values referenced by `UInt32` indices in one contiguous buffer; the `~Copyable` builder hash-conses on insert and `consuming freeze()` produces an immutable `Sendable` store. Interning tables are open-addressing slot arrays holding 4-byte indices (keys recovered from the buffers — no separate key storage). The builder's `demangle(_:)` bridge is fully cache-free (Phase 3): the transient tree is built with `internsLeaves: false`, so nothing touches `NodeCache.shared`. `intern(kind:...)` overloads construct nodes directly in the arena (wrapper `.type` nodes for index keys, etc.). `NodeReference` is a 16-byte value handle mirroring `Node` accessors (kind/text/index/children), plus `textUTF8` (zero-copy string-table bytes) and allocation-free `isIdentifier`/`isSwiftModule` witnesses. `materialize()` rebuilds a standalone (non-`NodeCache`) `Node` tree with an index-keyed memo, so store-level subtree sharing survives as shared instances instead of expanding the DAG.
+- **`DemanglingNode` / generic engines** (`Store/DemanglingNode.swift`, `Node/Printer/NodePrinter.swift`, `Main/TypeDecoder/TypeDecoder.swift`) — read-only tree protocol conformed by both `Node` and `NodeReference` (members named to match `Node`'s API so generic engine bodies are representation-agnostic). Engines: `DemanglingPrinter<Target, SomeNode>` behind the public `NodePrinter<Target>` facade (store printing is **zero materialization**, byte-identical to the `Node` path across the full dyld-cache corpus), and `TypeDecoderEngine<Builder, SomeNode>` behind `TypeDecoder<Builder>` (the public `TypeBuilder` protocol still receives concrete `Node` at the five handoff points via `materializedNode`). The `Remangler` deliberately stays a `Node` engine — its walk constructs transient helper nodes with shared substitution state (same design as the C++ remangler) — so `mangleAsString(some DemanglingNode)` bridges through `materializedNode`. The derived helpers (`isSimpleType`, `needSpaceBeforeType`, `hasChildren`, `subscript(throwChild:)`, `isIdentifier(desired:)`, `isSwiftModule`) live **only** on the `DemanglingNode` protocol/extension — do not re-add copies on `Node`: the generic engines dispatch to the shared implementation, so a parallel concrete copy would silently drift. `NodePrintContext.node` stays a concrete `Node?` (store path passes `name as? Node` → nil; harmless while store printing is String-target only). `DemanglingPrinter` and `StackSafeExecutor` are exported via `@_spi(Internals)` for deep consumers (MachOSwiftSection rich targets).
+- **`Demangler` construction seam** (`Main/Demangle/Demangler+NodeCreation.swift`) — every node the demangler builds goes through `createNode(...)` instance methods; `internsLeaves: false` (used by the internal `demangleAsNodeTransient`) bypasses `NodeCache.shared` entirely. New construction sites in `Demangler` must use `createNode(...)`, never `Node.create(...)` directly.

Subject: [PATCH 15/23] refactor(Demangling): rename SymbolStore to NodeStore
 and add downstream migration bridges
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The arena types carry no symbol concept — they store demangled nodes — so
SymbolStore/SymbolStoreBuilder become NodeStore/NodeStoreBuilder (proposal
0001 file renamed to 0001-node-store-arena.md; NodeFactory was considered
and rejected because the name is taken by the interned-singleton namespace).

Companion API for the MachOSwiftSection SymbolIndexStore migration:
- @_spi(Internals) demangleAsNodeTransient — classify on the transient tree
  before interning (returned tree is NOT canonical)
- NodeReference.structurallyEquals(_ node: Node) — zero-materialization
  cross-representation structural equality (frozen stores drop intern
  tables, so Node-keyed queries bridge through this)
- NodeReference: CustomStringConvertible via materialize() (debug dump)
- isKind(of:) and children.second moved up to the DemanglingNode protocol
  extensions; concrete Node copies removed (single-implementation rule)

 ## Summary
 
-为批量 demangle 场景引入一个与现有 `Node` 类**并存**的紧凑存储层 `SymbolStore`：所有节点平铺存放在连续缓冲（arena）中，节点间用 4 字节索引互指，每节点 12 字节、无对象头、无引用计数、无逐节点堆分配。公共 API 通过轻量值类型句柄 `NodeReference`（store 引用 + `UInt32` 索引）访问，架构对标 swift-syntax 的 SyntaxArena + 值类型句柄模式。分四个可独立交付的阶段渐进迁移，全程不破坏现有 `Node` API。

 | 2026-07-23 | Phase 1 实测达标 | 49k 语料：唯一节点 201,876（与 `NodeCache` 全树 hash-consing 计数逐一吻合，交叉验证正确性）；平铺存储 3.0 MB（nodes 2.4 + edges 0.43 + text 0.26），优于 ≤6 MB 目标；打印抽样 2000 条零差异；构建 0.87s，不劣于 class 路径。**新发现**：构建期高水位 ~16 MB，由 intern 表（`[CompactNode: UInt32]` 等，~10 MB 量级）与桥接路径的临时 class 节点构成，且已冻结后 dirty pages 不随 `malloc_zone_pressure_relief` 回落；两轮连建仅 +6 MB，确认内存复用、无累积。结论：①「49k ≤6 MB」按保留存储口径已达成，进程口径需 Phase 3（直写 arena，消除临时树）+ intern 表瘦身（改为指向 nodes 缓冲的 open-addressing 索引表，去掉独立 key 存储）；②桥接路径会向全局 `NodeCache` 写入叶节点（实测 11k 条），Phase 3 前的批量用户建议构建后 `NodeCache.shared.clear()` |
 | 2026-07-23 | Phase 2（打印）落地：零物化 store 打印 | 引入 `DemanglingNode` 只读协议（`kind`/`text`/`index`/`hasIndex`/`children` + `printCacheIdentity` 抽象缓存身份；`isSimpleType`/`needSpaceBeforeType`/`isIdentifier`/`isSwiftModule`/`print` 作为协议扩展从原语派生），`Node` 与 `NodeReference` 双双 conform。把 2179 行的 printer 引擎泛型化为 `DemanglingPrinter<Target, SomeNode>`（发现 printer 是纯只读消费者，全程不构造节点，泛型化干净），保留公共 `NodePrinter<Target>` 薄包装转发到 `DemanglingPrinter<Target, Node>`——**公共 API 零破坏**。`NodeReference.print` 直接走 `DemanglingPrinter<_, NodeReference>`，不再 `materialize()`。**关键正确性点**：`NodeReference.text` 必须镜像 `Node.text` 对 `.dependentGenericParamType` 的泛型名合成（printer line 199 依赖之）；`NodePrintContext.node` 是具体 `Node?`，store 路径以 `name as? Node`（NodeReference → nil）优雅降级，`String` target 无视 context 故无影响。**验证**：49k 语料 × 3 套选项（default/simplified/synthesizeSugar）store 打印与 Node 打印逐字节零差异；全量 dyld cache 对齐测试 + TypeDecoder 测试全绿 |
 | 2026-07-23 | 事故与恢复 | 外部工具删除了 `.claude/worktrees/` 目录，Phase 2 的未提交改动随磁盘丢失（三个 commit 因在 git 对象库中而安全）。因 printer 改造为确定性脚本化流程（perl + 精确 Edit），已从会话记录逐字复现全部 Phase 2 变更，重建 worktree 后重跑构建/测试验证一致 |
 | 2026-07-23 | Phase 2 跟进：materialize 保共享 + 派生属性单一来源 | ① `materializeNode` 增加按索引 memo：store 是 hash-consed 的 DAG，同一子树索引只物化一次并复用实例——此前朴素递归会把重度替换共享的符号指数展开成树（printCache 注释中 SwiftUI `View.Body` 量级即几十万节点），且展开树上按 `ObjectIdentifier` 键的打印缓存全部脱靶；新增测试 `materializePreservesSubtreeSharing` 断言共享位置 `===`。② 删除 `Node` 上与 `DemanglingNode` 扩展重复的 `isSimpleType`/`needSpaceBeforeType`/`isIdentifier(desired:)`/`isSwiftModule`：这些是协议扩展成员（非 requirement），泛型引擎内静态派发恒走扩展版本，两份拷贝存在静默漂移风险；收敛为单一实现后对外仍是 public API（具体 `Node` 调用解析到协议扩展），行为与逐字节输出不变，全量测试绿 |
 | 2026-07-24 | 仓库形态调整 | `feature/symbol-store` 迁入独立 worktree `swift-demangling-symbol-store`（同级显式路径，避开曾被外部工具误删的 `.claude/worktrees/`），主检出切回 `main` 供 MachOSwiftSection 等路径依赖使用。合并 main 的 `7fcb0f1`（`NodePrinterTarget` type-reference scope hooks）：泛型引擎以 `name as? Node` 桥接，store 路径传 nil——当前 store 打印仅 String target，无实际降级；富 target 抽象随 swift-section 迁移再设计 |
 | 2026-07-24 | Phase 2 收尾：遍历 + TypeDecoder + remangle 桥 + builder 构造 API + @_spi | ① 遍历机制（preorder/inorder/postorder/levelorder、`first(of:)`/`all(of:)`/`contains`/`filter(of:)`、`identifier`）整体泛型化为单一实现，`NodeReference` conform `Sequence`（preorder 默认），parity 测试断言两种表示遍历序逐一相同。② `TypeDecoderEngine<Builder, SomeNode>` + 公共 `TypeDecoder<Builder>` facade（新增 `NodeReference` 入口）；**`TypeBuilder` 协议零改动**——五个交接点经新协议 requirement `materializedNode`（`Node` 返回 self 零成本）物化小子树。③ **Remangler 决策：保持 Node 引擎**。审计确认 remangling 遍历中节点构造是承重的（`getUnspecialized` 剥泛型后回流 `mangle`、SIL box 布局 wrapper，均共享 substitution 状态，与 C++ NodeFactory 设计同构）；对逐字节对齐关键组件做无构造重设计不值。`mangleAsString(some DemanglingNode)` 经 `materializedNode` 桥接（remangle 输出本就是新 String，瞬态成本，与常驻内存目标无关）。`printCacheIdentity` 改名计划放弃（未出现第二个消费者）。④ builder 新增 `intern(kind:)`/`(kind:text:)`/`(kind:index:)`/`(kind:children:)` 直接构造 API，与树 intern 共享 hash-consing（测试断言同一索引）。⑤ `DemanglingPrinter` 与 `StackSafeExecutor` 以 `@_spi(Internals)` 导出（与 MachOSwiftSection 既有 SPI 组名一致），客户端视角验证：带 SPI import 可见、不带不可见 |

Subject: [PATCH 16/23] chore: add manifest cache isolation marker for worktree
 builds

SwiftPM caches manifest evaluations keyed by file content hash. The main
checkout and this branch's worktree share identical Package.swift bytes
but resolve relative local-dependency candidates to different paths, so
either side could be served the other's cached evaluation (observed as
local path dependencies silently degrading to remote 0.4.3, and as the
main checkout's sibling paths leaking into worktree builds). A trailing
comment makes the content hashes differ.

- NodePrinterTarget.pushTypeReferenceScope now takes @autoclosure
  () -> Node?: scope-ignoring targets (String, the default) never
  evaluate it, keeping store-backed plain-text printing allocation-free,
  while rich targets evaluate materializedNode and get full
  type-reference scope identity on the store path. Guarded by
  NodePrinterScopeTests (scope sequence parity across representations).
- demangleAsNodeTransient accepts a symbolicReferenceResolver; new
  @_spi(Internals) Node.createTransient factories bypass NodeCache for
  resolver-built and store-feeding construction.
- NodeReference gains init(interning:) (single-tree mini store),
  structurallyEquals(_: NodeReference) (same-store O(1), cross-store
  structural walk) and structuralHash(into:) for value types keying by
  node structure.
- Replace an invalid corpus symbol (predating NodeStore; rejected by the
  system demangler too) with a generated real cross-module extension
  initializer; all corpus literals are now validated against
  swift-demangle. Full suite: 410 tests / 19 suites green.

Always use these instead of `Node.init()` when creating nodes that should be cached. The `@_spi(Internals)` `Node.createTransient(...)` counterparts never touch the cache — use them (together with `demangleAsNodeTransient`, which also accepts a `symbolicReferenceResolver`) in pipelines that must not pin anything in global state, such as symbolic-reference resolvers and store-feeding bulk demangling.
 - **`NodeCache` / `NodeFactory`** (`NodeFactory.swift`) — `NodeCache` is the global interning cache with two levels: leaf nodes are interned eagerly at creation time, and whole trees are hash-consed bottom-up via `intern(_:)` / `internTreeUnsafe(_:)` (structurally equal subtrees collapse to one shared instance; interior-node keys compare children by `===`, which is safe because children are canonicalized before their parent). `demangleAsNode` runs the tree-interning pass by default (`internsSubtrees: true`), so identical symbols demangle to the identical (`===`) tree; opt out with `internsSubtrees: false`. `NodeFactory` provides pre-created singletons for common parameterless nodes (e.g., `NodeFactory.emptyList`, `.asyncAnnotation`). The `Node.init(...)` convenience initializers in `NodeFactory.swift` are **internal** and bypass the cache — they exist for `Demangler`/`Remangler` internals.

 - **`Demangler` construction seam** (`Main/Demangle/Demangler+NodeCreation.swift`) — every node the demangler builds goes through `createNode(...)` instance methods; `internsLeaves: false` (used by the internal `demangleAsNodeTransient`) bypasses `NodeCache.shared` entirely. New construction sites in `Demangler` must use `createNode(...)`, never `Node.create(...)` directly.

Subject: [PATCH 18/23] docs(evolution): record Stage 5 upstream decisions in
 proposal 0001

Backfills the decision log entry for 26db7a4: why the type-reference
scope hook became an @autoclosure (store printing must not pay for a
materialization no scope-ignoring target reads, while rich targets get
the nominal subtree instead of the previous nil), why symbolic-reference
resolvers needed a transient construction SPI (user-supplied resolver
closures were the one construction path Phase 3's cache-free contract
did not cover), what each of the three new NodeReference structural APIs
is for (and why the intrinsic store-identity Hashable cannot serve as
the structural hash), and the invalid corpus symbol that swift-demangle
rejects as well.

Node` 桥接，store 路径传 nil」），代价是富 target 走 store 时永久丢失 scope identity。改为 autoclosure 后两难消解：默认实现与 `String` 从不求值（零成本，store 纯文本路径仍无物化），富 target 求值即拿到 `name.materializedNode`——**且只物化该 nominal reference 的小子树**，不是整棵符号树。**验证**：新增 `NodePrinterScopeTests`，其 `ScopeRecordingTarget` 精确镜像 `String` 的写入行为（保证打印流程逐字节同构）并额外记录 push/pop 事件序列；scope identity 以「被递交节点的 remangle 字符串」表达——这是结构性表征，跨表示相等当且仅当递交的子树结构相等，从而绕开 `Node` 与 `NodeReference` 无法直接比较的问题。对 5 个符号断言两条路径的输出文本与 scope 事件序列逐项相同，并断言至少递交过一个非 nil identity（防止「两边都传 nil 也能通过」的空洞绿灯）。**② `demangleAsNodeTransient` 增加 `symbolicReferenceResolver` 参数，并新增 `@_spi(Internals) Node.createTransient(...)` 工厂族。** 问题：Phase 3 的 cache-free 契约此前只覆盖 demangler 自身的构造点（全部走 `createNode(...)` + `internsLeaves: false`），但 symbolic reference 解析是**用户提供的闭包**在解析中途构造并回填节点——下游只能用公共的 `Node.create(...)`，而它必然写入 `NodeCache.shared`。结果是：一旦启用 symbolic reference（MachOSwiftSection 解析 mach-o 内嵌符号引用的常规路径），批量管线的 cache 增长归零成果当场失效。补齐后 transient 入口可直接透传 resolver，resolver 内部用 `createTransient` 构造 splice 节点，全链路不碰全局 cache、不取全局锁。`createTransient` 覆盖 `create` 的五个重载形态（contents / inlineChildren / 单孩子 / text / index），文档明确标注返回节点**非 canonical**（结构相等者是不同实例，`===` 共享假设不成立）。**③ `NodeReference` 三个结构性 API。** `init(interning:)`：把单棵外部树（瞬态 demangle 结果或手工合成树）interning 进一个**私有 mini store** 并引用其根——reference 持有 store 即保活，值自足且 `Sendable`，适合「值的生命周期长于源树」的持有场景；文档同时指明批量场景仍应直接驱动 `NodeStoreBuilder`，否则每棵树一个 arena，白丢跨符号去重。`structurallyEquals(_ other: NodeReference)`：同 store 直接比索引即得答案（hash-consing 使索引相等 ⇔ 结构相等，O(1)），跨 store 才走双树遍历，text 同样字节优先、回退 `String ==` 保 Unicode 规范等价——与既有的 `structurallyEquals(_ node: Node)` 语义完全对齐。`structuralHash(into:)`：与跨 store 结构相等自洽的结构哈希（kind + contents 判别位 + 孩子数 + 递归）。**为什么不能直接用固有 `Hashable`**：`NodeReference` 的 `hash(into:)` 组合的是 `ObjectIdentifier(store)` + 索引（store 身份基底），跨 store 的结构相等键会被劈成两个桶；下游那些「按节点结构做字典键、但内部存 reference」的值类型需要的正是这个可显式调用的结构哈希构件。**④ 语料修正：`$s7SwiftUI4TextV_10FoundationE9formatterAcA20LocalizedStringStyleV_xtcSyRzlufc` 是无效符号**（早于本分支就躺在语料里，`xcrun swift-demangle` 同样原样吐回、拒绝解析——尾部 `fc` 非分配构造器与该 extension 上下文不自洽），换成生成的真实跨模块 extension initializer `$s11ExampleBase0A4TextV0A6AddonsE9formatter7subjectAcA0A5StyleV_xtcSyRzlufC`（展开为 `(extension in ExampleAddons):ExampleBase.ExampleText.init<A where A: Swift.StringProtocol>(formatter:subject:)`），涉及 `NodeCacheTests` 与 `NodeStoreTests` 共 6 处；全部语料字面量此后统一经 `swift-demangle` 校验后再入库。**全量套件：410 tests / 19 suites 全绿** |

Subject: [PATCH 19/23] fix(Demangling): avoid Array allocation on the
 transient node path

The `internsLeaves: false` branch of `createNode(kind:contents:inlineChildren:)`
converted `Node.Children` to an `Array`, forcing a heap allocation for 0-2
children on exactly the bulk path that inline storage exists to avoid. Forward
`inlineChildren` directly, matching the interning branch right above it.

Also drop the manifest cache-isolation marker comment from `Package.swift`. It
worked only by making this branch's manifest text differ from main's, so it
becomes self-contradictory and inert the moment it merges. Use `swift package
purge-cache` for worktree cache collisions instead.

Subject: [PATCH 20/23] docs(Demangling): sync NodeStore documentation with the
 shipped implementation
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- `DemanglingPrinter`'s SPI comment claimed the type-reference scope hooks
  receive nil on the store path; only `NodePrintContext.node` does. Document
  what the hooks actually deliver, and that store-backed printing materializes
  a fresh subtree per evaluation — so rich targets must key scopes by structure
  (the remangled string) rather than by `ObjectIdentifier`/`===`. Mirror the
  same correction in AGENTS.md, which described it as "full type-reference
  scope identity".
- Proposal 0001: mark Implemented (Phase 1-3; Phase 4 deferred) and correct the
  API sketches that no longer match the code — `@frozen`, `payloadA`/`payloadB`,
  `demangleAsReference`, `reference(of:)`, `text -> Substring?`, and the intern
  table layout. Rewrite the build-flow section: the scratch-arena design was
  never shipped; the cache-free transient `Node` tree is what landed, and the
  measurements justifying that trade-off are now stated inline.
- README: document `NodeStore` under Features and add a bulk-demangling usage
  section covering build/freeze, `NodeReference`, and `Node` interop.
- Add `Documentations/NodeStoreArena.md` as the topic document for the arena
  work (design, trade-offs, and Phase 1/3 measurements), and
  `Documentations/README.md` as the directory index.

New construction sites in `Demangler` must use `createNode(...)`, never `Node.create(...)` directly.

+# NodeStore：Arena 式紧凑节点存储
+
+日期：2026-07-27
+
+对应提案：`evolution/0001-node-store-arena.md`（Phase 1–3 已落地）
+前置优化：`Documentations/SubtreeInterning.md`（全子树 hash-consing）
+
+## 动机
+
+`SubtreeInterning.md` 结尾把「Arena + 索引式存储」列为被推迟的方向，本次即是它的兑现。
+
+全子树 hash-consing 把 49k 符号语料的解析驻留从 39.5 MB 压到 12.9 MB，但剩下的开销已经无法在 class 形态下继续消除：
+
+- `Node` 是 `final class`，每实例 48 字节 —— 其中 16 字节是对象头，41 字节的实际内容还要向上取整到 48 字节的 malloc 桶；
+- 每个节点一次独立 malloc，每次传递一次引用计数增减；
+- 孩子引用是 8 字节指针。
+
+对照 C++ `Demangle::Node`：24 字节/节点 + bump allocator。**差距全部来自 class 这个形态本身**，不是实现细节。
+
+把 `Node` 改成带 `[Node]` 的 struct 并不能解决：children 数组仍然是逐节点堆分配（32 字节缓冲头 + CoW 引用计数），再加上大 struct 的拷贝成本，内存和 CPU 双双倒退。struct 的价值在于**精确布局 + 可平铺进连续缓冲**，所以正确形态是 arena + 索引。
+
+同时，`Node` 是公共 API，下游（MachOSwiftSection、RuntimeViewer）大量依赖，不能就地重写。因此本方案是**并存**而非替换：新增一套存储层，老的 `Node` 路径行为一字不变。
+
+## 范围
+
+新增 `Sources/Demangling/Store/`：
+
+- `CompactNode.swift` — 12 字节平铺节点表示；
+- `NodeStore.swift` — 冻结后的不可变存储；
+- `NodeStoreBuilder.swift` — `~Copyable` 构建器，插入即 hash-consing；
+- `NodeReference.swift` — 16 字节值句柄 + `ChildrenView`；
+- `DemanglingNode.swift` — `Node` 与 `NodeReference` 共同遵循的只读树协议。
+
+改造既有代码：
+
+- `Node/Printer/NodePrinter.swift` — printer 引擎泛型化为 `DemanglingPrinter<Target, SomeNode>`；
+- `Main/TypeDecoder/TypeDecoder.swift` — 泛型化为 `TypeDecoderEngine<Builder, SomeNode>`；
+- `Main/Demangle/Demangler+NodeCreation.swift` — demangler 的节点构造 seam，支持绕开全局缓存。
+
+**公共 API 零破坏**：`Node`、`NodeBuilder`、`NodeCache`、`demangleAsNode`、`NodePrinter<Target>`、`TypeDecoder<Builder>`、`TypeBuilder` 的签名与行为全部保持。
+
+## 关键设计
+
+### 12 字节的节点
+
+```swift
+struct CompactNode {                  // size 12, alignment 4
+    var kindAndPayloadKind: UInt16    // bit 0-8: kind 序号；bit 9-11: payloadKind
+    var payloadWord0: UInt32
+    var payloadWord1: UInt32
+}
+```
+
+两个 payload 字的含义由 `payloadKind` 决定，沿用 `Node.Payload` 既有的互斥不变量（contents 与 children 不共存）。49k 语料实测分布：`oneChild` ~67%、`manyChildren` ~16%、`twoChildren` ~12%、`text` ~5%——**近八成节点只有零到一个孩子**，所以把两个孩子内联进 payload、只让 3+ 孩子外溢到 edges 缓冲，是很划算的选择。
+
+每个 store 三块连续缓冲：`nodes`（主 arena，append 即 bump 分配）、`edges`（3+ 孩子节点的孩子索引区段）、`textBytes`（去重后的 UTF-8 字符串表）。孩子引用是 4 字节索引而非 8 字节指针——这正是相对 C++ 24 字节实现的反超点。
+
+容量上限：42.9 亿节点、4 GB 字符串表。越界走 `precondition` 失败，不静默截断。
+
+### 插入即 hash-consing，intern 表不留在成品里
+
+`NodeStoreBuilder` 对每个插入的节点做 hash-consing：结构相等的子树收敛到同一个索引。因为孩子总是先于父节点被 intern，父节点的键可以直接用**已规范化的孩子索引**比较，无需递归结构哈希——与 `NodeCache.internTreeUnsafe` 同一套经典技巧。
+
+intern 表本身是三张 open-addressing 槽数组（普通节点 / 3+ 孩子节点 / 文本），**每槽只存 4 字节索引，键按需从平铺缓冲区取回比较**，不为键单独保存一份拷贝。早期用字典（键各自持有 12 字节 compact 值、子索引数组或 `String` 副本）时，intern 表本身在全语料上要占约 10 MB 量级；改为槽数组后降到约 2 MB。
+
+`consuming func freeze()` 消费 builder、丢弃全部 intern 表，只留三块缓冲。这带来两个结果：
+
+- 「构建完成后不可变」由类型系统保证，不再依赖锁和文档契约；
+- 冻结后的 store **无法再做哈希查找**——这解释了为什么 `NodeReference` 需要 `structurallyEquals` 这类线性比较 API（见下文）。
+
+### 构建流程：cache-free 临时树，而不是直写 arena
+
+提案原稿设想让 demangler 直接写入 arena。实际落地保留了 `Node` 作为中间的「第一代空间」：
+
+1. `demangleAsNodeTransient` 以 `internsLeaves: false` 解析，产出的临时 `Node` 树完全不碰 `NodeCache.shared`；
+2. `builder.intern(tree)` 自底向上把可达节点 intern 进 arena —— **去重与垃圾回收是同一个 pass**；
+3. 临时树失去引用即被 ARC 回收。
+
+之所以没做直写：demangler 的解析逻辑（回填、substitution 复用）建立在引用语义上，改为索引式直写等于重写全部约 594 个构造点。而实测表明这一层临时成本可以忽略——234k 符号语料上构建期常驻增量仅 9.9 MB（≈ 留存 + 约 1 MB 瞬态），且构建耗时反而**快于** interning 的 `Node` 路径。
+
+为此，demangler 的全部节点构造点收敛到 `createNode(...)` 这一个 seam 上。**新增构造点必须走 `createNode(...)`，不能直接调 `Node.create(...)`**，否则 cache-free 契约会被悄悄破坏。同理，用户提供的 symbolic reference resolver 需要用 `@_spi(Internals) Node.createTransient(...)` 构造回填节点——否则一启用 symbolic reference，批量管线的 cache-free 成果当场失效。
+
+### 一套引擎，两种表示
+
+`DemanglingNode` 是 `Node` 和 `NodeReference` 共同遵循的只读树协议（`kind`/`text`/`index`/`children` 加一个抽象的 `printCacheIdentity`）。成员名刻意与 `Node` 现有 API 一致，这样泛型引擎的函数体不论特化到哪种表示都是同一份代码。
+
+据此，2000 行以上的 printer 引擎泛型化为 `DemanglingPrinter<Target, SomeNode>`，`TypeDecoder` 泛型化为 `TypeDecoderEngine<Builder, SomeNode>`，公共 `NodePrinter<Target>` / `TypeDecoder<Builder>` 退化为薄包装。store 路径的打印是**零物化**的：全量 dyld cache 语料 × 3 套选项，store 打印与 `Node` 打印逐字节零差异。
+
+派生辅助（`isSimpleType`、`needSpaceBeforeType`、`isIdentifier(desired:)`、`isSwiftModule`、`isKind(of:)`、`children.second` 等）**只保留在协议扩展上**。它们是扩展成员而非协议要求，泛型引擎内部静态派发恒走扩展版本——在具体类型上再留一份拷贝不会被引擎调用，只会静默漂移。遍历机制（preorder/inorder/postorder/levelorder、`first(of:)`/`all(of:)`/`contains`）同理，已收敛为单一泛型实现。
+
+**`Remangler` 刻意保持 `Node` 引擎**。审计确认它的遍历过程中节点构造是承重的：`getUnspecialized` 剥掉泛型后要把结果回流给 `mangle`，SIL box 布局要构造 wrapper，两者都共享 substitution 状态——这与 C++ remangler 的设计同构。对这样一个逐字节对齐关键的组件做「无构造」重设计不划算，因此 `mangleAsString(some DemanglingNode)` 经 `materializedNode` 桥接。remangle 的输出本来就是新分配的 `String`，属于瞬态成本，与常驻内存目标无关。
+
+### 读路径的零分配细节
+
+`NodeReference.textUTF8` 暴露字符串表字节的零拷贝 `ArraySlice` 视图。printer 的 sugar 检测热路径（判断 Swift module、Optional/Array/Dictionary）此前每次检查都要构造一个 `String`；升级为协议要求 `isIdentifier(desired:)` / `isSwiftModule` 并由 `NodeReference` 以字节比较见证后，store 路径上这些检查不再分配。非 ASCII 的比较目标回退到 `String` 比较，以保持 Unicode 规范等价语义。
+
+### 跨表示的相等与哈希
+
+冻结后 intern 表已丢弃，无法哈希查找，于是提供三个显式 API：
+
+- `structurallyEquals(_ node: Node)` —— 零物化的跨表示结构相等，语义对齐 `Node.==`；服务「手里有一棵外部 demangle 出来的 `Node`，要在 `NodeReference` 字典键中找到它」这个场景；
+- `structurallyEquals(_ other: NodeReference)` —— 同 store 直接比索引即得答案（hash-consing 使索引相等 ⇔ 结构相等，O(1)），跨 store 才走双树遍历；
+- `structuralHash(into:)` —— 与上述结构相等自洽的结构哈希。
+
+**为什么不能直接用固有的 `Hashable`**：`NodeReference.hash(into:)` 组合的是 `ObjectIdentifier(store)` + 索引，是 store 身份基底的。跨 store 的结构相等键会被劈成两个桶。那些「按节点结构做字典键、内部却存 reference」的下游值类型，需要的正是这个可显式调用的结构哈希构件。
+
+## 取舍与影响面
+
+- **物化出来的树不是 canonical**。`materialize()` 重建的是一棵全新的、不进 `NodeCache` 的 `Node` 树。因此 `===` 共享假设在这条路径上**不成立**：同一个 store 索引物化两次得到两个不同实例。任何按节点身份（`ObjectIdentifier` / `===`）做关联的消费者，在 store 路径上必须改为按结构关联（例如用 remangle 后的字符串作键）。`NodePrinterTarget.pushTypeReferenceScope` 收到的节点同样受此约束。
+  - 物化本身保留 DAG 共享：按索引 memo，同一子树只物化一次并复用实例。否则重度替换共享的符号会被指数展开（SwiftUI `View.Body` 量级即几十万节点），且展开树上按身份键的打印缓存会全部脱靶。
+- **索引只对签发它的 store 有效**。`NodeStore.NodeIndex` 是裸值，不带 store 反向引用。跨 store 混用索引不会被可靠拦截，只会读到无关子树。同时持有多个 builder 时需自行保证不混用。
+- **kind 序号不是序列化格式**。它取自 `Node.Kind.allCases` 中的位置，仅在单次进程运行内稳定。9 位空间共 512 槽，当前 `Node.Kind` 有 373 个 case，余量 139。本项目持续跟进 Apple 工具链的 `Demangle::Node::Kind`，超出时由 `kindsByStoreOrdinal` 的 `precondition` 拦截——注意那是**运行时**失败且位于 lazy static 中，只在首次触及 store 路径时才暴露。Phase 4 的持久化格式必须自带稳定的 kind 映射表。
+- **builder 是单写者**。`~Copyable` 保证了这一点，好处是全程无锁，代价是不能跨线程共享。多线程批量场景应每线程一个 builder，最后合并——合并 API 尚未实现。
+- **`Node` 路径完全不受影响**。默认的 `demangleAsNode` 仍然走 `NodeCache` 的叶 + 全树 interning，行为、输出、身份语义一字未变。
+
+## 实测收益
+
+Phase 1（49k 符号语料）：唯一节点 201,876，与 `NodeCache` 全树 hash-consing 的计数逐一吻合（交叉验证了两套 intern 实现的正确性）；平铺存储 3.0 MB（nodes 2.4 + edges 0.43 + text 0.26）。
+
+Phase 3 验收（本机 dyld cache SwiftUI 语料 234,232 符号，debug 构建）：
+
+| 指标 | 实测 | 目标 |
+|---|---|---|
+| 唯一节点 | 619,688 | — |
+| 平铺存储 | 8.75 MB（nodes 7.4 + edges 0.75 + text 0.57） | — |
+| 每唯一节点 | 14.1 字节 | ≤ 16 |
+| 每符号 | 37 字节 | ≤ 64 |
+| 构建耗时 | 25.3s（`Node` 路径 28.5s） | ≤ 1.2× 基线 |
+| 构建期常驻增量 | 9.9 MB | — |
+
+下游（MachOSwiftSection）迁移实测：构建管线换成 transient + intern 之后，`NodeCache` 增长归零（此前每镜像 +1.9 万叶节点 / +56 万子树），store 本体 7 MB / 57.9 万唯一节点，`Storage` 释放即整镜像回收。
+
+正确性：全量 dyld cache 对齐测试 0 失败；49k 语料 × 3 套打印选项，store 与 `Node` 路径逐字节零差异。
+
+## 后续方向（未实施）
+
+- **Phase 4 — 平铺序列化**：三块缓冲直接二进制序列化 / mmap 加载（接近 memcpy 量级），把整个 dyld cache 的解析结果持久化为符号数据库。需先定义稳定的 kind 映射与格式版本号。
+- **分片并行 store 与终态合并**：配合每线程一个 builder。
+- **`Span` / `UTF8Span`（Swift 6.2）借用视图**：进一步消除 `ArraySlice` 层的开销。
+- **`NodeReference` 层的 `Node.Rewriter` 等价物**：写时拷贝进新 store。

Build with `NodeStoreBuilder`, then `freeze()` into an immutable, `Sendable` store:
+
+```swift
+var builder = NodeStoreBuilder()
+var rootIndices: [NodeStore.NodeIndex] = []
+for symbol in symbols {
+    rootIndices.append(try builder.demangle(symbol))
+}
+let store = builder.freeze()
+```
+
+Nodes are addressed by `NodeReference`, a 16-byte value handle that mirrors `Node`'s accessors. Printing and type decoding read directly from the arena — no `Node` tree is materialized:
+
+```swift
+let reference = store.reference(at: rootIndices[0])
+let readable = reference.print(using: .default)
+
+for child in reference.children where child.kind == .identifier {
+    // `textUTF8` borrows the store's string table without allocating
+    print(child.text ?? "")
+}
+```
+
+The builder hash-conses on insert, so structurally equal subtrees collapse to one index and `NodeReference` equality is O(1) within a store. This path never touches `NodeCache.shared`, so bulk indexing leaves global state untouched.
+
+Interop with the `Node` API stays available in both directions — `builder.intern(existingNode)` imports a tree, and `reference.materialize()` rebuilds a standalone one:
+
+```swift
+let index = builder.intern(try demangleAsNode(symbol))
+let node = store.reference(at: index).materialize()
+```
+
+Measured on a SwiftUI dyld-cache corpus of 234,232 symbols: 619,688 unique nodes in 8.75 MB of flat storage (14.1 bytes per unique node), built no slower than the `Node` path.

     public func print(using options: DemangleOptions) -> String
 }
 ```
 
+解析入口最终定在 builder 而非 store（提案原稿写的是 `NodeStore.demangleAsReference`）：冻结后的 store 不可变，解析必然要写入，天然属于 builder。`text` 保持 `String?` 以镜像 `Node.text` 的语义（含 `.dependentGenericParamType` 的泛型名合成，这是 printer 依赖的行为），零拷贝需求由并列的 `textUTF8` 满足。
+
 - 构建期使用 `NodeStoreBuilder`（`~Copyable`）：单写者约束由编译器保证，`consuming func freeze() -> NodeStore` 完成冻结——把现在靠 `NSLock` + 文档契约维持的「构建后不可变」升级为类型系统保证；
 - `Hashable`/`==` 基于 (store identity, index)：因为 store 内全量 hash-consed，索引相等 ⇔ 结构相等，比较从 O(树) 降为 O(1)；
 - 读路径后续用 `Span` / `UTF8Span`（Swift 6.2）暴露孩子区段与文本的借用视图，零分配零拷贝。
 
 ### 构建流程（两代空间）
 
-1. Demangler 把节点写入**每符号复用的 scratch arena**（容量保留、每符号 `removeAll(keepingCapacity: true)`）——解析中产生的临时节点零成本丢弃，等价于 C++ 每符号销毁 `NodeFactory`；
-2. 解析成功后，从根出发把可达节点自底向上 intern 拷贝进持久 store——**去重与垃圾回收是同一个 pass**，键规范化逻辑与已合入的 `internTreeUnsafe` 完全同构；
-3. scratch 重置，处理下一符号。
+原稿设想的是让 Demangler 直写一块每符号复用的 scratch arena。落地形态改为「cache-free 临时 `Node` 树」作为第一代空间：
+
+1. `demangleAsNodeTransient` 以 `internsLeaves: false` 解析，构造出的临时 `Node` 树完全不碰 `NodeCache.shared`——无叶节点泄漏、无全局锁竞争；
+2. `builder.intern(tree)` 从根出发把可达节点自底向上 intern 进持久 arena——**去重与垃圾回收是同一个 pass**，键规范化逻辑与已合入的 `internTreeUnsafe` 完全同构；
+3. 临时树失去引用即被 ARC 回收，处理下一符号。
+
+保留 `Node` 作为第一代空间，是因为 Demangler 的解析逻辑（回填、substitution 复用）建立在引用语义之上，改为直写索引式 arena 等于重写全部 ~594 个构造点。实测该取舍成本可忽略：234k 符号语料上构建期 phys_footprint 增量 9.9 MB ≈ 留存 + ~1 MB 瞬态，且 store 构建 25.3s 反而快于 interning `Node` 路径的 28.5s（详见 Decision Log 的 Phase 3 验收）。
 
-并行策略：每线程一个 scratch arena；持久 store 的 intern 写入初期沿用单锁（与现状一致），若成为瓶颈再演进为分片锁或每线程局部 store + 终态合并。
+并行策略：`NodeStoreBuilder` 是 `~Copyable` 单写者，天然无锁但也不可共享。多线程批量场景应每线程一个 builder，终态合并——合并 API 尚未实现，列为 Future Direction。
 
 ### 渐进式迁移分期
 
 每个阶段独立可交付、测试全绿、`Node` API 始终不动：
 
-- **Phase 1 — 存储层与互操作**：`CompactNode` / `NodeStoreBuilder` / `NodeStore` / `NodeReference`；`reference(of:)` 导入现有 `Node` 树，`materialize()` 导出。打印/remangle 暂走物化慢路径。验收：任意树 导入→导出 与原树 `==`；导入两棵结构相等的树得到同一索引。
+- **Phase 1 — 存储层与互操作**：`CompactNode` / `NodeStoreBuilder` / `NodeStore` / `NodeReference`；`intern(_:)` 导入现有 `Node` 树，`materialize()` 导出。打印/remangle 暂走物化慢路径。验收：任意树 导入→导出 与原树 `==`；导入两棵结构相等的树得到同一索引。
 - **Phase 2 — 零物化读路径**：将 `NodePrinter` / `Remangler` / `TypeDecoder` 的树访问抽象为协议（kind/text/index/children 四个只读需求），`Node` 与 `NodeReference` 双双 conform；打印与 remangle 直接从 store 读，不再物化。验收：全量 dyld cache 对齐测试在 `NodeReference` 路径下 0 失败。
-- **Phase 3 — 解析直写 arena**：`Demangler` 的节点构造抽象为存储策略（默认策略维持现有 `Node` 行为不变；store 策略直写 scratch arena），提供批量入口 `NodeStore.demangleAsReference(_:)`。此阶段起，批量场景完全绕开 class 分配。验收：内存达标（49k 语料 ≤6 MB）、吞吐不劣于现状 1.2 倍。
+- **Phase 3 — cache-free 批量解析**：`Demangler` 的节点构造收敛到 `createNode(...)` seam，`internsLeaves: false` 时完全绕开 `NodeCache.shared`；批量入口 `NodeStoreBuilder.demangle(_:)` 走「cache-free 临时 `Node` 树 → intern 进 arena → 丢弃临时树」。此阶段起批量场景不再向全局缓存写入任何东西。验收：内存达标（49k 语料 ≤6 MB）、吞吐不劣于现状 1.2 倍。
 - **Phase 4（可选）— 平铺序列化**：store 的几个缓冲直接二进制序列化/反序列化（接近 memcpy 量级），支持 mmap 加载——符号数据库能力，为 RuntimeViewer 类工具缓存整个 dyld cache 的解析结果。
 
 ### 与现有 NodeCache 的关系

Subject: [PATCH 21/23] perf(Demangling): reuse large-stack threads and print
 within a stack budget
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

`StackSafeExecutor.currentThreadHasSufficientStack` requires 2MB of
*remaining* stack, while a Swift Concurrency cooperative worker and a
libdispatch worker each get a 512KB stack in total. The check is therefore
never satisfied off the main thread: every demangle, remangle and print
created — and joined — a fresh 8MB-stack `Thread`. Measured at ~50us per
call, against a ~32us demangle and a ~10us print.

Two independent layers:

1. `LargeStackThreadPool` reuses long-lived 8MB workers (spun up on demand,
   retired after a 30s idle timeout) instead of one thread per call. Covers
   demangle, remangle and print alike without touching any engine. A worker
   runs on 8MB, so nested calls take the inline branch and never re-submit —
   a saturated pool cannot deadlock.

2. `executeWithinStackBudget` runs the recursion inline and falls back to a
   worker only when it actually nears the stack end. The print path is wired
   in through `DemanglingPrinter.printRootWithinStackBudget`, which probes
   the real stack pointer at the existing `printName` convergence point — a
   fixed depth threshold would have to guess per-frame size, which varies by
   `Target`. A partial result is discarded wholesale.

`Demangler` has no single recursion convergence point and `Remangler`'s is
not wired up, so both take layer 1 only.

2000 iterations on a 512KB-stack thread, before -> after:
  print     127.5ms -> 17.5ms  (7.3x, now below the main thread)
  demangle  162.5ms -> 74.8ms  (2.2x)
  6400 demangles across 32 tasks: 162.7ms -> 99.6ms

Verified against MachOSwiftSection: `MachOSwiftSectionTests` +
`SwiftLayoutTests` failure sets are identical before and after (157, all
pre-existing on that branch); `SwiftDumpTests` / `SwiftPrintingTests` /
`MachOSymbolsTests` pass except one pre-existing snapshot failure.

 - **Traversal** (`Store/DemanglingNode+Sequence.swift`, `Node+Sequence.swift`) — the traversal machinery (`preorder`/`inorder`/`postorder`/`levelorder`), the kind-lookup helpers (`first(of:)`, `all(of:)`, `contains(_:)`, `filter(of:)` on `Sequence where Element: DemanglingNode`), and `identifier` are single generic implementations shared by both representations; `Node` and `NodeReference` each conform to `Sequence` with preorder as the default. Do not re-add `Node`-specific copies.
 - **`NodeStore` / `NodeStoreBuilder` / `NodeReference`** (`Store/`) — Arena-based compact storage for bulk demangling (evolution proposal 0001; design notes and measurements in `Documentations/NodeStoreArena.md`). Nodes are flat 12-byte `CompactNode` values referenced by `UInt32` indices in one contiguous buffer; the `~Copyable` builder hash-conses on insert and `consuming freeze()` produces an immutable `Sendable` store. Interning tables are open-addressing slot arrays holding 4-byte indices (keys recovered from the buffers — no separate key storage). The builder's `demangle(_:)` bridge is fully cache-free (Phase 3): the transient tree is built with `internsLeaves: false`, so nothing touches `NodeCache.shared`. `intern(kind:...)` overloads construct nodes directly in the arena (wrapper `.type` nodes for index keys, etc.). `NodeReference` is a 16-byte value handle mirroring `Node` accessors (kind/text/index/children), plus `textUTF8` (zero-copy string-table bytes), allocation-free `isIdentifier`/`isSwiftModule` witnesses, `structurallyEquals(_ node: Node)` (zero-materialization cross-representation structural equality matching `Node.==` — the bridge for finding an externally demangled `Node` among `NodeReference` dictionary keys, since the frozen store drops its intern tables), `structurallyEquals(_ other: NodeReference)` (same-store O(1) via index equality, cross-store structural walk) plus `structuralHash(into:)` (structure-consistent hashing for value types that key dictionaries by node structure while storing references — `NodeReference`'s intrinsic `Hashable` is store-identity based), `NodeReference(interning:)` (interns one `Node` tree into a fresh private mini store — self-contained handles for values that outlive their source tree), and a `CustomStringConvertible` debug dump (materialization bridge). `demangleAsNodeTransient` is exported via `@_spi(Internals)` for bulk indexers that classify on the transient tree before interning it (the returned tree is NOT canonical). `materialize()` rebuilds a standalone (non-`NodeCache`) `Node` tree with an index-keyed memo, so store-level subtree sharing survives as shared instances instead of expanding the DAG.
 - **`DemanglingNode` / generic engines** (`Store/DemanglingNode.swift`, `Node/Printer/NodePrinter.swift`, `Main/TypeDecoder/TypeDecoder.swift`) — read-only tree protocol conformed by both `Node` and `NodeReference` (members named to match `Node`'s API so generic engine bodies are representation-agnostic). Engines: `DemanglingPrinter<Target, SomeNode>` behind the public `NodePrinter<Target>` facade (store printing is **zero materialization**, byte-identical to the `Node` path across the full dyld-cache corpus), and `TypeDecoderEngine<Builder, SomeNode>` behind `TypeDecoder<Builder>` (the public `TypeBuilder` protocol still receives concrete `Node` at the five handoff points via `materializedNode`). The `Remangler` deliberately stays a `Node` engine — its walk constructs transient helper nodes with shared substitution state (same design as the C++ remangler) — so `mangleAsString(some DemanglingNode)` bridges through `materializedNode`. The derived helpers (`isSimpleType`, `needSpaceBeforeType`, `hasChildren`, `subscript(throwChild:)`, `isIdentifier(desired:)`, `isSwiftModule`, `isKind(of:)`, and `second` on `DemanglingNodeChildren`) live **only** on the `DemanglingNode` protocol/extension — do not re-add copies on `Node` or `Node.Children`: the generic engines dispatch to the shared implementation, so a parallel concrete copy would silently drift. `NodePrintContext.node` stays a concrete `Node?` (store path passes `name as? Node` → nil; harmless — no rich target reads it on the store path). `NodePrinterTarget.pushTypeReferenceScope` takes its node as `@autoclosure () -> Node?`: scope-ignoring targets (`String`, the default implementation) never evaluate it, keeping store-backed plain-text printing allocation-free, while rich targets (e.g. `SemanticString`) evaluate it and receive `materializedNode`, materializing only the nominal-reference subtree. Note the delivered node is canonical **only on the `Node` path**: store-backed printing builds a fresh non-interned subtree per evaluation, so two pushes of the same store index are not `===`. Rich targets must key scopes by structure (e.g. the remangled string, as `SemanticString` does) — never by `ObjectIdentifier`/`===`. `DemanglingPrinter` and `StackSafeExecutor` are exported via `@_spi(Internals)` for deep consumers (MachOSwiftSection rich targets).
+- **`StackSafeExecutor`** (`Utils/StackSafeExecutor.swift`) — the stack-safety wrapper every recursive entry point (demangle / remangle / print) goes through. `currentThreadHasSufficientStack` requires 2MB of *remaining* stack, while a Swift Concurrency cooperative worker and a libdispatch worker each get a 512KB stack **in total** — so off the main thread the large-stack branch is taken unconditionally, for every call. Two layers keep that affordable: (a) `LargeStackThreadPool` reuses long-lived 8MB-stack workers (created on demand, retired after a 30s idle timeout) instead of creating and joining a `Thread` per call — this covers demangle, remangle and print alike, with no engine changes; a worker never re-submits into the pool (it runs on 8MB, so nested calls take the inline branch), so a saturated pool cannot deadlock. (b) `executeWithinStackBudget(budgetedAttempt:unbudgetedFallback:)` runs the recursion inline on the current thread and only falls back to a worker when it actually approaches the stack end — the budgeted attempt gets a `stackFloorAddress` (thread stack base + 64KB margin) and returns `nil` to give up. Only the **print** path is wired into (b), via `DemanglingPrinter.printRootWithinStackBudget(_:stackFloorAddress:)`, which probes the real stack pointer at the existing `printName` convergence point (a fixed depth threshold would have to guess per-frame size, which varies by `Target`); a partial result is discarded wholesale, so the residue left in `target`/`printCache` never escapes. `Demangler` has no single recursion convergence point and `Remangler`'s (`mangle(_:depth:)`) is not wired up yet — both still take (a) only. Do NOT wire a new engine into (b) without a convergence point that covers *every* recursion path: incomplete coverage trades a slow-but-safe call for an overflow. Measurements and the full rationale: `Documentations/StackSafeExecution.md`.
 - **`Demangler` construction seam** (`Main/Demangle/Demangler+NodeCreation.swift`) — every node the demangler builds goes through `createNode(...)` instance methods; `internsLeaves: false` (used by the internal `demangleAsNodeTransient`) bypasses `NodeCache.shared` entirely. New construction sites in `Demangler` must use `createNode(...)`, never `Node.create(...)` directly.

+
+```swift
+private static let minimumRequiredStackSize = 2 * 1024 * 1024 // 2MB
+
+private static var currentThreadHasSufficientStack: Bool {
+    let remainingStackSpace = currentAddress - Int(bitPattern: stackBase)
+    return remainingStackSpace >= minimumRequiredStackSize
+}
+```
+
+判断的是**当前栈剩余空间是否 ≥ 2 MB**。实测三类线程的栈事实（Apple silicon，macOS 26）：
+
+| 线程 | 栈总大小 | 进入时剩余 | 判断结果 |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| 主线程 | 8,372,224 (8 MB) | 8,358,432 | 够 → 内联执行 |
+| `DispatchQueue.global()` | 536,576 (524 KB) | 536,064 | **不够 → 另起线程** |
+| Swift Concurrency 协作线程 | 536,576 (524 KB) | 535,568 | **不够 → 另起线程** |
+
+后两类线程的**栈总量**（524 KB）就低于阈值（2 MB），因此剩余空间无论如何都不可能达标 —— 判断在这两类线程上**恒为假**。也就是说：只要不在主线程上，每一次 demangle、每一次 remangle、每一次 print 都会新建一条 8 MB 栈的 `Thread`，用信号量等它跑完，然后销毁。

+这不是边缘情况，而是常态：`SymbolIndexStore` 的索引构建跑在 `DispatchQueue.global()` 上，逐个符号调用 `demangleAsNodeTransient`；任何 `async` 的打印管线都跑在协作线程上。实测单次线程建立/销毁成本约 50 µs：
+
+| 场景（2000 次，同一符号） | 主线程 | 512 KB 栈线程 | 倍率 |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `demangleAsNodeTransient` | 63.9 ms | 162.5 ms | 2.54× |
+| `Node.print(using:)` | 20.8 ms | 127.5 ms | **6.12×** |
+
+打印那一行最能说明问题：打印本体只要约 10 µs，线程开销 53 µs —— **开销是本体的 5 倍**。按一个框架 20 万个符号估算，仅线程建立就是十秒量级的纯浪费。
+
+## 改动
+
+分两层，互相独立、叠加生效。
+
+### 第一层：常驻线程复用（`LargeStackThreadPool`）
+
+把「每次 `Thread(...)` + `start()` + 销毁」换成一个按需增长、空闲回收的常驻大栈线程池：
+
+- 提交任务时，仅当**待处理任务数超过空闲 worker 数**才新建线程；竞态下多建一条也无妨，它会在空闲超时（30 秒）后自行退出。
+- worker 拿到任务就执行，执行完回到 `NSCondition` 上等下一个，不销毁。
+- worker 自身跑在 8 MB 栈上，因此它内部的嵌套调用（例如 demangler 调用 remangler 处理 opaque return type）走的是 `currentThreadHasSufficientStack` 的内联分支，**不会**再往池子里提交，从而不存在「池子被占满导致自我死锁」的风险。
+
+这一层对 demangle / remangle / print **三条路径同时生效**，且完全不触碰任何递归引擎。
+
+### 第二层：乐观内联 + 栈预算回退（`executeWithinStackBudget`）
+
+线程池把单次成本从 ~50 µs 降到 ~8 µs（信号量往返 + 上下文切换），但这 8 µs 仍然是白付的 —— 绝大多数符号的递归深度只有几十帧，压根不需要 8 MB 栈。
+
+于是新增一条乐观路径：
+
+```swift
+StackSafeExecutor.executeWithinStackBudget { stackFloorAddress in
+    // 在当前线程直接跑，递归逼近 stackFloorAddress 时返回 nil 放弃
+} unbudgetedFallback: {
+    // 只有放弃了才在大栈 worker 上无限制重跑
+}
+```
+
+`stackFloorAddress` 由当前线程的栈底加上 64 KB 安全余量算出。打印引擎在**已有的递归收敛点** `DemanglingPrinter.printName` 上做检查 —— 该函数是所有打印递归的必经之路（原本就在那里做 `maxPrintDepth` 判断），因此覆盖是完整的：
+
+```swift
+if didExhaustStackBudget { return nil }          // 已放弃：快速退栈
+if stackFloorAddress != 0 {
+    var stackProbe = 0
+    let currentAddress = withUnsafeMutablePointer(to: &stackProbe) { UInt(bitPattern: $0) }
+    if currentAddress <= stackFloorAddress {
+        didExhaustStackBudget = true
+        return nil
+    }
+}
+```
+
+用**实测栈指针**而不是固定深度阈值，是刻意的选择：每帧占用多少字节随 `Target` 类型（`String` 与 `SemanticString` 的帧大小不同）和优化级别变化，固定深度必然要保守到浪费；直接比地址则无需猜测，且天然适配任何栈大小的线程。
+
+放弃时整个 printer 值被丢弃、在大栈上重跑，因此中途写入 `target` 和 `printCache` 的残缺片段不会外泄。
+
+## 效果
+
+同一台机器、同一符号、2000 次：
+
+| 场景 | 改动前 | 仅线程池 | 线程池 + 栈预算 |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `print` @512 KB 栈线程 | 127.5 ms | 42.4 ms | **17.5 ms** |
+| `demangle` @512 KB 栈线程 | 162.5 ms | 78.0 ms | 74.8 ms |
+| 32 任务并发 6400 次 demangle | 162.7 ms | 101.1 ms | 99.6 ms |
+
+打印路径提速 **7.3 倍**，且在 512 KB 栈线程上的耗时已低于主线程 —— 跨线程成本完全消失。
+
+## 影响面与限制
+
+- **行为不变**：深递归仍然受保护，只是保护方式从「无条件换线程」变成「先试，不够再换」。`maxPrintDepth`（768 帧，对齐上游 C++ `NodePrinter`）与 `<<too complex>>` 语义保持原样。
+- **只有打印路径接入了第二层**。`Demangler` 没有单一递归收敛点（`demangleType` / `demangleOperator` 等多个方法互递归），`Remangler` 虽有收敛点 `mangle(_:depth:)` 但暂未接入。两者目前只享受第一层的线程复用收益。若后续要给 demangler 加栈预算，前提是先为它建立一个真正覆盖全部递归路径的收敛点 —— 保护不完整反而比现状危险。
+- **非 Darwin 平台**行为不变（整套机制都在 `#if canImport(Darwin)` 内，其他平台一律直接执行）。
+- **回归验证**：MachOSwiftSection 的 `MachOSwiftSectionTests` + `SwiftLayoutTests` 全量对比，改动前后失败集合逐条一致（157 项，均为该分支既有失败）；`SwiftDumpTests` / `SwiftPrintingTests` / `MachOSymbolsTests` 共 100 项中除一项既有的快照失败外全部通过。

Subject: [PATCH 22/23] perf(Demangling): remangle within a stack budget too
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Wires `Remangler` into the same optimistic-inline path the printer already
uses: run on the caller's stack, fall back to a large-stack worker only when
the walk actually nears the stack end. The check goes at the existing
convergence point `mangle(_:depth:)`, which already guards `maxDepth` (1024,
matching upstream Remangler.cpp), so coverage is complete by construction.

Remangling is `throws(ManglingError)`, hence a typed-throws overload of
`executeWithinStackBudget`. The two failure modes are kept distinct: a thrown
error means the tree itself is malformed and propagates immediately (retrying
on a worker would only reproduce it), while budget exhaustion is signalled by
returning nil and is the only thing that falls back.

2000 remangles on a 512KB-stack thread: 160.0ms -> 130.1ms, i.e. 1.24x the
main thread's time down to 1.00x. The gain is smaller than the printer's 7.3x
purely because of body cost — print is ~10us with ~84% thread overhead,
remangle is ~65us.

Also records what the call-graph analysis established about `Demangler`: its
main parse loop is iterative (`parseAndPushNames` over an explicit nameStack),
not recursive descent, which is why upstream has no depth limit there either.
Only 21 of its 160 methods sit in any cycle, none on the main loop, so it
stays on thread reuse alone.

Verified: full suite passes, including the dyld-cache acceptance corpus
(234232 symbols, 0 store failures, 0 node-path failures).

 - **Traversal** (`Store/DemanglingNode+Sequence.swift`, `Node+Sequence.swift`) — the traversal machinery (`preorder`/`inorder`/`postorder`/`levelorder`), the kind-lookup helpers (`first(of:)`, `all(of:)`, `contains(_:)`, `filter(of:)` on `Sequence where Element: DemanglingNode`), and `identifier` are single generic implementations shared by both representations; `Node` and `NodeReference` each conform to `Sequence` with preorder as the default. Do not re-add `Node`-specific copies.
 - **`NodeStore` / `NodeStoreBuilder` / `NodeReference`** (`Store/`) — Arena-based compact storage for bulk demangling (evolution proposal 0001; design notes and measurements in `Documentations/NodeStoreArena.md`). Nodes are flat 12-byte `CompactNode` values referenced by `UInt32` indices in one contiguous buffer; the `~Copyable` builder hash-conses on insert and `consuming freeze()` produces an immutable `Sendable` store. Interning tables are open-addressing slot arrays holding 4-byte indices (keys recovered from the buffers — no separate key storage). The builder's `demangle(_:)` bridge is fully cache-free (Phase 3): the transient tree is built with `internsLeaves: false`, so nothing touches `NodeCache.shared`. `intern(kind:...)` overloads construct nodes directly in the arena (wrapper `.type` nodes for index keys, etc.). `NodeReference` is a 16-byte value handle mirroring `Node` accessors (kind/text/index/children), plus `textUTF8` (zero-copy string-table bytes), allocation-free `isIdentifier`/`isSwiftModule` witnesses, `structurallyEquals(_ node: Node)` (zero-materialization cross-representation structural equality matching `Node.==` — the bridge for finding an externally demangled `Node` among `NodeReference` dictionary keys, since the frozen store drops its intern tables), `structurallyEquals(_ other: NodeReference)` (same-store O(1) via index equality, cross-store structural walk) plus `structuralHash(into:)` (structure-consistent hashing for value types that key dictionaries by node structure while storing references — `NodeReference`'s intrinsic `Hashable` is store-identity based), `NodeReference(interning:)` (interns one `Node` tree into a fresh private mini store — self-contained handles for values that outlive their source tree), and a `CustomStringConvertible` debug dump (materialization bridge). `demangleAsNodeTransient` is exported via `@_spi(Internals)` for bulk indexers that classify on the transient tree before interning it (the returned tree is NOT canonical). `materialize()` rebuilds a standalone (non-`NodeCache`) `Node` tree with an index-keyed memo, so store-level subtree sharing survives as shared instances instead of expanding the DAG.
 - **`DemanglingNode` / generic engines** (`Store/DemanglingNode.swift`, `Node/Printer/NodePrinter.swift`, `Main/TypeDecoder/TypeDecoder.swift`) — read-only tree protocol conformed by both `Node` and `NodeReference` (members named to match `Node`'s API so generic engine bodies are representation-agnostic). Engines: `DemanglingPrinter<Target, SomeNode>` behind the public `NodePrinter<Target>` facade (store printing is **zero materialization**, byte-identical to the `Node` path across the full dyld-cache corpus), and `TypeDecoderEngine<Builder, SomeNode>` behind `TypeDecoder<Builder>` (the public `TypeBuilder` protocol still receives concrete `Node` at the five handoff points via `materializedNode`). The `Remangler` deliberately stays a `Node` engine — its walk constructs transient helper nodes with shared substitution state (same design as the C++ remangler) — so `mangleAsString(some DemanglingNode)` bridges through `materializedNode`. The derived helpers (`isSimpleType`, `needSpaceBeforeType`, `hasChildren`, `subscript(throwChild:)`, `isIdentifier(desired:)`, `isSwiftModule`, `isKind(of:)`, and `second` on `DemanglingNodeChildren`) live **only** on the `DemanglingNode` protocol/extension — do not re-add copies on `Node` or `Node.Children`: the generic engines dispatch to the shared implementation, so a parallel concrete copy would silently drift. `NodePrintContext.node` stays a concrete `Node?` (store path passes `name as? Node` → nil; harmless — no rich target reads it on the store path). `NodePrinterTarget.pushTypeReferenceScope` takes its node as `@autoclosure () -> Node?`: scope-ignoring targets (`String`, the default implementation) never evaluate it, keeping store-backed plain-text printing allocation-free, while rich targets (e.g. `SemanticString`) evaluate it and receive `materializedNode`, materializing only the nominal-reference subtree. Note the delivered node is canonical **only on the `Node` path**: store-backed printing builds a fresh non-interned subtree per evaluation, so two pushes of the same store index are not `===`. Rich targets must key scopes by structure (e.g. the remangled string, as `SemanticString` does) — never by `ObjectIdentifier`/`===`. `DemanglingPrinter` and `StackSafeExecutor` are exported via `@_spi(Internals)` for deep consumers (MachOSwiftSection rich targets).
-- **`StackSafeExecutor`** (`Utils/StackSafeExecutor.swift`) — the stack-safety wrapper every recursive entry point (demangle / remangle / print) goes through. `currentThreadHasSufficientStack` requires 2MB of *remaining* stack, while a Swift Concurrency cooperative worker and a libdispatch worker each get a 512KB stack **in total** — so off the main thread the large-stack branch is taken unconditionally, for every call. Two layers keep that affordable: (a) `LargeStackThreadPool` reuses long-lived 8MB-stack workers (created on demand, retired after a 30s idle timeout) instead of creating and joining a `Thread` per call — this covers demangle, remangle and print alike, with no engine changes; a worker never re-submits into the pool (it runs on 8MB, so nested calls take the inline branch), so a saturated pool cannot deadlock. (b) `executeWithinStackBudget(budgetedAttempt:unbudgetedFallback:)` runs the recursion inline on the current thread and only falls back to a worker when it actually approaches the stack end — the budgeted attempt gets a `stackFloorAddress` (thread stack base + 64KB margin) and returns `nil` to give up. Only the **print** path is wired into (b), via `DemanglingPrinter.printRootWithinStackBudget(_:stackFloorAddress:)`, which probes the real stack pointer at the existing `printName` convergence point (a fixed depth threshold would have to guess per-frame size, which varies by `Target`); a partial result is discarded wholesale, so the residue left in `target`/`printCache` never escapes. `Demangler` has no single recursion convergence point and `Remangler`'s (`mangle(_:depth:)`) is not wired up yet — both still take (a) only. Do NOT wire a new engine into (b) without a convergence point that covers *every* recursion path: incomplete coverage trades a slow-but-safe call for an overflow. Measurements and the full rationale: `Documentations/StackSafeExecution.md`.

A partial result is discarded wholesale, so residue in `target`/`printCache`/`buffer` never escapes. Remangling being `throws(ManglingError)` there is a typed-throws overload of (b): a thrown error means the *tree* is bad and propagates immediately, only a `nil` return (budget exhausted) retries on a worker. `Demangler` deliberately takes (a) only, matching upstream — its main parse loop is **not recursive descent** (`parseAndPushNames()` is a `while` loop over an explicit `nameStack`), which is why upstream `Demangler.cpp` has no depth limit either. A call-graph analysis of its 160 methods found only 21 in any cycle, none on the main loop: `demangleBoundGenericArgs`, `setParentForOpaqueReturnTypeNodesImpl` ↔ `getParentId`, and a 19-method `demangleSwift3*` component (the Swift 3 mangling *is* recursive descent). Do NOT wire a new engine into (b) without a convergence point covering *every* recursion path: incomplete coverage trades a slow-but-safe call for an overflow. Measurements and the full rationale: `Documentations/StackSafeExecution.md`.
 - **`Demangler` construction seam** (`Main/Demangle/Demangler+NodeCreation.swift`) — every node the demangler builds goes through `createNode(...)` instance methods; `internsLeaves: false` (used by the internal `demangleAsNodeTransient`) bypasses `NodeCache.shared` entirely. New construction sites in `Demangler` must use `createNode(...)`, never `Node.create(...)` directly.

-- **行为不变**：深递归仍然受保护，只是保护方式从「无条件换线程」变成「先试，不够再换」。`maxPrintDepth`（768 帧，对齐上游 C++ `NodePrinter`）与 `<<too complex>>` 语义保持原样。
-- **只有打印路径接入了第二层**。`Demangler` 没有单一递归收敛点（`demangleType` / `demangleOperator` 等多个方法互递归），`Remangler` 虽有收敛点 `mangle(_:depth:)` 但暂未接入。两者目前只享受第一层的线程复用收益。若后续要给 demangler 加栈预算，前提是先为它建立一个真正覆盖全部递归路径的收敛点 —— 保护不完整反而比现状危险。
+- **行为不变**：深递归仍然受保护，只是保护方式从「无条件换线程」变成「先试，不够再换」。`maxPrintDepth`（768 帧，对齐上游 C++ `NodePrinter`）、`Remangler.maxDepth`（1024，对齐上游 `Remangler.cpp`）与 `<<too complex>>` / `.tooComplex` 语义都保持原样。
+- **`Demangler` 只享受第一层的线程复用**，这是刻意的，且与上游一致：它的主解析路径**根本不是递归下降**——`parseAndPushNames()` 是 `while !scanner.isAtEnd` 配合 `nameStack` 显式栈，嵌套结构靠弹栈拼装而非调用栈，所以上游 `Demangler.cpp` 同样没有任何递归深度限制（有 `depth` 的是 `Remangler` 和 `NodePrinter`，本库两者都已对齐）。对 160 个方法做过调用图分析，真正参与递归的只有 21 个，且都不在主循环上：`demangleBoundGenericArgs`（深度 = 嵌套泛型上下文层数）、`setParentForOpaqueReturnTypeNodesImpl` ↔ `getParentId`（树遍历），以及 19 个 `demangleSwift3*` 组成的互递归团（Swift 3 老 mangling 才是真正的递归下降）。前两类深度很浅；Swift 3 那条路径理论上可被构造的深嵌套老符号打爆栈，但今天 `_T` 前缀符号已基本绝迹。若将来要给它加保护，正确做法是只覆盖这 21 个方法，而不是给全部方法塞一个恒为常数的参数。

Subject: [PATCH 23/23] refactor(Demangling): move stack safety into the
 printer engine
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Stack safety was a call-site convention: every print entry point had to wrap
`printRoot` in `StackSafeExecutor` itself, and forgetting silently removed the
protection. MachOSwiftSection's `printSemantic` did exactly that once (a deeply
nested generic symbol could overflow where the identical NodeReference call
would not), and when the stack budget landed it missed the gain the same way,
still paying a thread hop per call. Two failures at the same spot means the
responsibility sits in the wrong place.

`DemanglingPrinter.print(_:options:)` now owns it, with `NodePrinter<Target>`
forwarding. It is `static` by necessity: the fallback needs a pristine printer,
and a `mutating printRoot` that already gave up mid-walk cannot re-run itself.
The four in-library entry points collapse to one-line forwards, dropping the
duplicated budgeted/fallback closure pairs.

`printRoot` / `printRootWithinStackBudget` stay as low-level entries for
callers that know they have headroom, now documented as such. `Node.description`
keeps the plain wrapper — it walks the private `printNode` tree dump rather
than the print engine.

Audited every remaining `StackSafeExecutor` and `printRoot` call site in the
library; the rest are fallback branches, facade forwards, or the demangle/async
paths that intentionally take thread reuse only.

Rich targets must key scopes by structure (e.g. the remangled string, as `SemanticString` does) — never by `ObjectIdentifier`/`===`. `DemanglingPrinter` and `StackSafeExecutor` are exported via `@_spi(Internals)` for deep consumers (MachOSwiftSection rich targets).

Two layers keep that affordable: (a) `LargeStackThreadPool` reuses long-lived 8MB-stack workers (created on demand, retired after a 30s idle timeout) instead of creating and joining a `Thread` per call — this covers demangle, remangle and print alike, with no engine changes; a worker never re-submits into the pool (it runs on 8MB, so nested calls take the inline branch), so a saturated pool cannot deadlock. (b) `executeWithinStackBudget(budgetedAttempt:unbudgetedFallback:)` runs the recursion inline on the current thread and only falls back to a worker when it actually approaches the stack end — the budgeted attempt gets a `stackFloorAddress` (thread stack base + 64KB margin) and returns `nil` to give up. The **print** and **remangle** paths are wired into (b), via `DemanglingPrinter.printRootWithinStackBudget(_:stackFloorAddress:)` and `Remangler.mangleWithinStackBudget(_:stackFloorAddress:)`; both probe the real stack pointer at their existing convergence points (`printName` / `mangle(_:depth:)`) rather than counting frames, because per-frame size varies by `Target` and optimization level. A partial result is discarded wholesale, so residue in `target`/`printCache`/`buffer` never escapes. Remangling being `throws(ManglingError)` there is a typed-throws overload of (b): a thrown error means the *tree* is bad and propagates immediately, only a `nil` return (budget exhausted) retries on a worker. `Demangler` deliberately takes (a) only, matching upstream — its main parse loop is **not recursive descent** (`parseAndPushNames()` is a `while` loop over an explicit `nameStack`), which is why upstream `Demangler.cpp` has no depth limit either. A call-graph analysis of its 160 methods found only 21 in any cycle, none on the main loop: `demangleBoundGenericArgs`, `setParentForOpaqueReturnTypeNodesImpl` ↔ `getParentId`, and a 19-method `demangleSwift3*` component (the Swift 3 mangling *is* recursive descent). Do NOT wire a new engine into (b) without a convergence point covering *every* recursion path: incomplete coverage trades a slow-but-safe call for an overflow. Measurements and the full rationale: `Documentations/StackSafeExecution.md`.

Do NOT go back to wrapping `printRoot` in `StackSafeExecutor` at the call site: that was the old convention and MachOSwiftSection's `printSemantic` silently lost the protection by forgetting it (and then silently missed the budget gain the same way). A partial result is discarded wholesale, so residue in `target`/`printCache`/`buffer` never escapes.

 - **`Demangler` construction seam** (`Main/Demangle/Demangler+NodeCreation.swift`) — every node the demangler builds goes through `createNode(...)` instance methods; `internsLeaves: false` (used by the internal `demangleAsNodeTransient`) bypasses `NodeCache.shared` entirely. New construction sites in `Demangler` must use `createNode(...)`, never `Node.create(...)` directly.

 放弃时整个 printer 值被丢弃、在大栈上重跑，因此中途写入 `target` 和 `printCache` 的残缺片段不会外泄。
 
+### 保护归位：从调用方约定改为引擎内建
+
+第二层刚落地时，每个打印入口都要自己写一遍 `executeWithinStackBudget` 的两个闭包。这是**约定式**保护：调用方得记得包，漏一个就是静默失去保护。而这个坑已经踩过一次——MachOSwiftSection 的 `printSemantic` 直接驱动 `DemanglingPrinter`，历史上就没包 `StackSafeExecutor`，深嵌套泛型符号能把它打爆；这次第二层落地时它又一次没跟上，白付跨线程开销。同一个位置栽两回，说明责任放错了地方。
+
+于是把保护挪进引擎，成为 `DemanglingPrinter.print(_:options:)`：
+
+```swift
+public static func print(_ root: SomeNode, options: DemangleOptions = .default) -> Target {
+    StackSafeExecutor.executeWithinStackBudget { stackFloorAddress in
+        var printer = DemanglingPrinter(options: options)
+        return printer.printRootWithinStackBudget(root, stackFloorAddress: stackFloorAddress)
+    } unbudgetedFallback: {
+        var printer = DemanglingPrinter(options: options)
+        return printer.printRoot(root)
+    }
+}
+```
+
+它**必须是 static**：回退要用一个全新的 printer 重跑，而 `printRoot` 是 `mutating`，放弃那次已经污染了实例状态，没法自己重来。
+
+`printRoot` / `printRootWithinStackBudget` 保留为低层入口，供已知有栈余量、想自己管理 printer 生命周期的调用方使用；库内四个打印入口全部塌缩成一行转发。`Node.description` 是例外，它走的是私有的 `printNode` 树 dump（debug 用途）而非打印引擎，继续用第一层。
+
+### Remangler
+
 `Remangler` 用完全相同的形状接入（`mangleWithinStackBudget(_:stackFloorAddress:)`），检查点放在它已有的收敛点 `mangle(_:depth:)` 上——那里原本就在做 `maxDepth`（1024，对齐上游 `Remangler.cpp`）判断。放弃时丢弃整个 remangler 值，残缺的 `buffer` 同样不会外泄。因为 remangle 是 `throws(ManglingError)`，`StackSafeExecutor` 相应多一个 typed-throws 重载；其中「抛错」与「预算耗尽」是两回事：抛错说明树本身有问题，直接向上传播而不去 worker 上重跑（重跑只会复现同一个错误），预算耗尽才走回退。
