feat(hako_check): Phase 153 - Dead code detection revival (JoinIR version)

Implement comprehensive dead code detection for hako_check with JoinIR
integration, following Phase 133/134/152 box-based modularity pattern.

## Key Achievements

1. **Comprehensive Inventory** (`phase153_hako_check_inventory.md`):
   - Documented current hako_check architecture (872 lines)
   - Analyzed existing HC011/HC012 rules
   - Confirmed JoinIR-only pipeline (Phase 124)
   - Identified Phase 153 opportunities

2. **DeadCodeAnalyzerBox** (`rule_dead_code.hako`):
   - Unified HC019 rule (570+ lines)
   - Method-level + box-level dead code detection
   - DFS reachability from entrypoints
   - Text-based analysis (no MIR JSON dependency for MVP)
   - Heuristic-based false positive reduction

3. **CLI Integration** (`cli.hako`):
   - Added `--dead-code` flag for comprehensive mode
   - Added `--rules dead_code` for selective execution
   - Compatible with --format (text/json-lsp/dot)

4. **Test Infrastructure**:
   - HC019_dead_code test directory (ng/ok/expected.json)
   - `hako_check_deadcode_smoke.sh` with 4 test cases

## Technical Details

- **Input**: Analysis IR (MapBox with methods/calls/boxes/entrypoints)
- **Output**: HC019 diagnostics
- **Algorithm**: Graph-based DFS reachability
- **Pattern**: Box-based modular architecture
- **No ENV vars**: CLI flags only

+# Phase 153: hako_check Inventory (Dead Code Detection Mode)
+
+**Created**: 2025-12-04
+**Phase**: 153 (hako_check / dead code detection mode revival)
+
+---
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+This document inventories the current state of `hako_check` as of Phase 153, with focus on:
+1. Current execution flow and architecture
+2. Existing dead code detection capabilities (HC011, HC012)
+3. JoinIR integration status
+4. Gaps and opportunities for Phase 153 enhancement
+
+**Key Finding**: hako_check already has partial dead code detection through HC011 (dead methods) and HC012 (dead static boxes), but lacks:
+- MIR-level unreachable block detection
+- CFG-based reachability analysis
+- Integration with JoinIR's control flow information
+- Unified `--dead-code` flag for comprehensive dead code reporting
+
+---
+
+## 1. Current Architecture
+
+### 1.1 Execution Flow
+
+```
+.hako source file
+    ↓
+tools/hako_check.sh (bash wrapper)
+    ↓
+tools/hako_check/cli.hako (VM-executed .hako script)
+    ↓
+HakoAnalysisBuilderBox.build_from_source_flags()
+    ├─ HakoParserCoreBox.parse() (AST generation)
+    └─ Text-based scanning (fallback)
+    ↓
+Analysis IR (MapBox) with:
+    - methods: Array<String> (qualified: "Box.method/arity")
+    - calls: Array<Map{from, to}>
+    - boxes: Array<Map{name, is_static, methods}>
+    - entrypoints: Array<String>
+    - source: String (original text)
+    ↓
+Rule execution (19 rules, including HC011/HC012)
+    ↓
+Diagnostics output (text / JSON-LSP / DOT)
+```
+
+### 1.2 Key Components
+
+**Entry Points**:
+- `tools/hako_check.sh` - Shell script wrapper with environment setup
+- `tools/hako_check/cli.hako` - Main .hako script (HakoAnalyzerBox)
+
+**Core Boxes**:
+- `HakoAnalyzerBox` (cli.hako) - Main orchestrator
+- `HakoAnalysisBuilderBox` (analysis_consumer.hako) - IR builder
+- `HakoParserCoreBox` (tools/hako_parser/parser_core.hako) - AST parser
+
+**Dead Code Rules**:
+- `RuleDeadMethodsBox` (rule_dead_methods.hako) - HC011
+- `RuleDeadStaticBoxBox` (rule_dead_static_box.hako) - HC012
+
+**IR Format** (MapBox):
+```javascript
+{
+  path: String,
+  source: String,
+  uses: Array<String>,
+  boxes: Array<{
+    name: String,
+    is_static: Boolean,
+    span_line: Integer,
+    methods: Array<{
+      name: String,
+      arity: Integer,
+      span: Integer
+    }>
+  }>,
+  methods: Array<String>,  // "Box.method/arity"
+  calls: Array<{from: String, to: String}>,
+  entrypoints: Array<String>
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 2. Existing Dead Code Detection
+
+### 2.1 HC011: Dead Methods (Unreachable Methods)
+
+**File**: `tools/hako_check/rules/rule_dead_methods.hako`
+
+**Algorithm**:
+1. Build adjacency graph from `calls` array
+2. DFS from entrypoints (Main.main, main, etc.)
+3. Mark visited methods
+4. Report unvisited methods as dead
+
+**Limitations**:
+- Only detects unreachable methods (function-level granularity)
+- No unreachable block detection within functions
+- Heuristic-based call detection (text scanning fallback)
+- No integration with MIR CFG information
+
+**Test Coverage**:
+- `HC011_dead_methods/ng.hako` - Contains unreachable method
+- `HC011_dead_methods/ok.hako` - All methods reachable
+
+### 2.2 HC012: Dead Static Box (Unused Static Boxes)
+
+**File**: `tools/hako_check/rules/rule_dead_static_box.hako`
+
+**Algorithm**:
+1. Collect all static box names from IR
+2. Build set of referenced boxes from calls
+3. Report boxes with no references (except Main)
+
+**Limitations**:
+- Only detects completely unreferenced boxes
+- No detection of boxes with unreachable methods only
+- AST span_line support for precise line reporting
+
+**Test Coverage**:
+- `HC012_dead_static_box/ng.hako` - Unused static box
+- `HC012_dead_static_box/ok.hako` - All boxes referenced
+
+### 2.3 HC016: Unused Alias
+
+**File**: `tools/hako_check/rules/rule_unused_alias.hako`
+
+**Note**: While not strictly "dead code", unused aliases are dead declarations.
+
+---
+
+## 3. JoinIR Integration Status
+
+### 3.1 Current Pipeline (Phase 124 Completion)
+
+**Status**: ✅ **JoinIR-only pipeline established**
+
+As of Phase 124 (completed 2025-12-04), hako_check uses JoinIR exclusively:
+
+```
+.hako file
+    ↓
+Tokenize / Parse (Rust Parser)
+    ↓
+AST Generation
+    ↓
+MIR Builder (JoinIR lowering for if/loop)
+    ├─ cf_if() → lower_if_form() (JoinIR-based PHI)
+    └─ cf_loop() → LoopBuilder (JoinIR-based PHI)
+    ↓
+MIR Generation (with JoinIR PHI)
+    ↓
+VM Interpreter
+    ↓
+hako_check Analysis
+```
+
+**Key Points**:
+- `NYASH_HAKO_CHECK_JOINIR` flag removed (JoinIR is default)
+- No legacy PHI fallback in hako_check path
+- All If/Loop constructs use JoinIR lowering
+
+### 3.2 MIR Integration Opportunities
+
+**Current Gap**: hako_check does not consume MIR for dead code analysis
+
+**Opportunity**: Integrate MIR CFG for block-level reachability:
+- MIR already has `src/mir/passes/dce.rs` (instruction-level DCE)
+- MIR has CFG information (`function.blocks`, `block.terminator`)
+- JoinIR lowering provides high-quality PHI nodes for control flow
+
+**Potential Input Formats**:
+1. **MIR JSON v0** - Existing format from `--emit-mir-json`
+2. **JoinIR JSON** - Direct JoinIR representation
+3. **Analysis IR** - Current text-based IR (simplest, current approach)
+
+---
+
+## 4. Related Rust Code (Inventory)
+
+### 4.1 MIR Dead Code Elimination
+
+**File**: `src/mir/passes/dce.rs`
+
+**Purpose**: Instruction-level dead code elimination (DCE)
+
+**Scope**:
+- Eliminates unused results of pure instructions
+- Works at ValueId level (SSA values)
+- Does **not** eliminate unreachable blocks or functions
+
+**Relevance**: Could be extended or adapted for hako_check integration
+
+### 4.2 MIR Verification
+
+**File**: `src/mir/verification/cfg.rs`
+
+**Purpose**: CFG consistency verification
+
+**Relevance**: Contains CFG traversal utilities that could be reused for reachability analysis
+
+### 4.3 MIR Optimizer
+
+**File**: `src/mir/optimizer.rs`
+
+**Purpose**: Multi-pass MIR optimization
+
+**Relevance**: Orchestrates DCE and other passes; pattern for DeadCodeAnalyzerBox
+
+---
+
+## 5. Gaps and Phase 153 Scope
+
+### 5.1 Existing Capabilities ✅
+
+- [x] Dead method detection (HC011)
+- [x] Dead static box detection (HC012)
+- [x] JoinIR-only pipeline (Phase 124)
+- [x] Text-based call graph analysis
+- [x] Entrypoint-based DFS reachability
+
+### 5.2 Missing Capabilities (Phase 153 Targets)
+
+#### High Priority
+- [ ] **Unreachable block detection** (within functions)
+  - Example: `if false { ... }` dead branches
+  - Example: Code after unconditional `return`
+
+- [ ] **MIR CFG integration**
+  - Use MIR's block graph for precise reachability
+  - Detect unreachable blocks post-JoinIR lowering
+
+- [ ] **Unified `--dead-code` flag**
+  - Aggregate HC011 + HC012 + new block detection
+  - Single command for comprehensive dead code audit
+
+#### Medium Priority
+- [ ] **JoinIR-specific analysis**
+  - Analyze IfMerge/LoopForm for unreachable paths
+  - Detect always-true/always-false conditions
+
+- [ ] **CFG visualization integration**
+  - Extend DOT output with unreachable block highlighting
+  - `--format dot --dead-code` mode
+
+#### Low Priority (Future Phases)
+- [ ] Call graph visualization with dead paths
+- [ ] Dataflow-based dead code detection
+- [ ] Integration with Phase 160+ .hako JoinIR/MIR migration
+
+---
+
+## 6. Phase 153 Implementation Plan
+
+### 6.1 Minimal Viable Product (MVP)
+
+**Goal**: Revive dead code detection with MIR block-level reachability
+
+**Scope**:
+1. Create `DeadCodeAnalyzerBox` (.hako implementation)
+2. Input: Analysis IR (current format) + optional MIR JSON
+3. Output: Unreachable block reports
+4. CLI: Add `--dead-code` flag to aggregate all dead code diagnostics
+
+**Non-Goals** (Phase 153):
+- No new environment variables
+- No changes to JoinIR/MIR semantics
+- No complex dataflow analysis (pure reachability only)
+
+### 6.2 Box-Based Architecture (Phase 133/134 Pattern)
+
+**Pattern**: Modular analyzer box following if_dry_runner.rs precedent
+
+```
+DeadCodeAnalyzerBox
+├─ analyze_reachability(ir) → UnreachableBlocks
+├─ analyze_call_graph(ir) → DeadFunctions
+└─ aggregate_report() → Array<Diagnostic>
+```
+
+**Characteristics**:
+- Self-contained .hako implementation
+- No modification to existing rules (HC011/HC012 unchanged)
+- Additive enhancement (no breaking changes)
+
+### 6.3 Input Format Decision
+
+**Recommendation**: Start with **Analysis IR** (current format)
+
+**Rationale**:
+- Minimally invasive (no new serialization)
+- Works with existing hako_check pipeline
+- Can extend to MIR JSON in Phase 154+ if needed
+
+**Analysis IR Extensions** (if needed):
+```javascript
+{
+  // ... existing fields ...
+  blocks: Array<{
+    id: Integer,
+    function: String,
+    reachable: Boolean,
+    terminator: String
+  }>
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 7. Test Inventory
+
+### 7.1 Existing Dead Code Tests
+
+**HC011 Tests** (Dead Methods):
+- `tools/hako_check/tests/HC011_dead_methods/`
+  - `ng.hako` - Method never called
+  - `ok.hako` - All methods reachable
+  - `expected.json` - Diagnostic expectations
+
+**HC012 Tests** (Dead Static Box):
+- `tools/hako_check/tests/HC012_dead_static_box/`
+  - `ng.hako` - Box never instantiated
+  - `ok.hako` - All boxes used
+  - `expected.json` - Diagnostic expectations
+
+### 7.2 Planned Phase 153 Tests
+
+**HC011-B** (Unreachable Block):
+```hako
+static box Test {
+  method demo() {
+    if false {
+      // This block is unreachable
+      print("dead code")
+    }
+    return 0
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**HC011-C** (Code After Return):
+```hako
+static box Test {
+  method demo() {
+    return 0
+    print("unreachable")  // Dead code
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Integration Test** (Comprehensive):
+- Combines dead methods, dead boxes, and dead blocks
+- Verifies `--dead-code` flag aggregates all findings
+
+---
+
+## 8. CLI Design (Phase 153)
+
+### 8.1 Current CLI
+
+```bash
+# Basic analysis
+./tools/hako_check.sh target.hako
+
+# Rule filtering
+./tools/hako_check.sh --rules dead_methods,dead_static_box target.hako
+
+# JSON-LSP output
+./tools/hako_check.sh --format json-lsp target.hako
+```
+
+### 8.2 Proposed Phase 153 CLI
+
+```bash
+# Enable comprehensive dead code detection
+./tools/hako_check.sh --dead-code target.hako
+
+# Dead code only (skip other rules)
+./tools/hako_check.sh --rules dead_code target.hako
+
+# Combine with visualization
+./tools/hako_check.sh --dead-code --format dot target.hako > cfg.dot
+```
+
+**Behavior**:
+- `--dead-code`: Enables HC011 + HC012 + new block analysis
+- Exit code: Number of dead code findings (0 = clean)
+- Compatible with existing `--format` options
+
+---
+
+## 9. Environment Variables (No New Additions)
+
+**Phase 153 Constraint**: No new environment variables
+
+**Existing Variables** (hako_check uses):
+- `NYASH_DISABLE_PLUGINS=1` - Required for stability
+- `NYASH_BOX_FACTORY_POLICY=builtin_first` - Box resolution
+- `NYASH_FEATURES=stage3` - Parser stage
+- `NYASH_JSON_ONLY=1` - Pure JSON output (json-lsp mode)
+
+**Decision**: All Phase 153 control via CLI flags only
+
+---
+
+## 10. JoinIR Design Principles Compliance
+
+### 10.1 Read-Only Analysis
+
+✅ **Compliant**: DeadCodeAnalyzerBox only reads IR, does not modify it
+
+### 10.2 No Semantic Changes
+
+✅ **Compliant**: Analysis is post-compilation, no effect on MIR generation
+
+### 10.3 Box-First Modularity
+
+✅ **Compliant**: DeadCodeAnalyzerBox follows established pattern
+
+### 10.4 Fail-Fast (Not Applicable)
+
+N/A: Analysis cannot fail (always produces some result, possibly empty)
+
+---
+
+## 11. Integration with Phase 160+
+
+**Context**: Phase 160+ will migrate .hako sources to JoinIR/MIR
+
+**hako_check Role**: Safety net for migration
+
+**Benefits**:
+- Detect dead code introduced during migration
+- Verify call graph integrity
+- Catch unreachable blocks from refactoring
+
+**Preparation** (Phase 153):
+- Establish solid baseline for dead code detection
+- Prove DeadCodeAnalyzerBox on current codebase
+- Document false positive patterns
+
+---
+
+## 12. Known Limitations (Phase 153)
+
+### 12.1 Dynamic Call Detection
+
+**Limitation**: Text-based call scanning cannot detect dynamic calls
+
+**Example**:
+```hako
+local method_name = "compute"
+// Call via reflection (not detectable by hako_check)
+```
+
+**Mitigation**: Document as known limitation
+
+### 12.2 False Positives
+
+**Pattern**: Intentionally unused utility methods
+
+**Example**:
+```hako
+static box Utils {
+  // Future use, not yet called
+  method reserved_for_later() { }
+}
+```
+
+**Mitigation**: Allow suppression comments (future phase)
+
+### 12.3 Cross-Module Analysis
+
+**Limitation**: hako_check analyzes single files only
+
+**Consequence**: Cannot detect dead code exported but unused elsewhere
+
+**Mitigation**: Document as boundary condition
+

+
+## 13. Success Criteria (Phase 153)
+
+### 13.1 Functional Requirements
+
+- [ ] DeadCodeAnalyzerBox implemented in .hako
+- [ ] `--dead-code` flag functional
+- [ ] HC011 + HC012 + block detection working
+- [ ] 2-3 test cases passing
+- [ ] Smoke script created
+
+### 13.2 Quality Requirements
+
+- [ ] No regression in existing hako_check tests
+- [ ] Box-based modular architecture
+- [ ] Documentation updated (this file + hako_check_design.md)
+- [ ] Git commit with clear message
+
+### 13.3 Non-Functional Requirements
+
+- [ ] Performance: <5% overhead on existing hako_check
+- [ ] Compatibility: Works with all existing CLI options
+- [ ] Maintainability: <200 lines for DeadCodeAnalyzerBox
+
+---
+
+## 14. Next Steps (Post-Inventory)
+
+1. **Task 2**: Verify JoinIR-only pipeline (confirm no legacy fallback)
+2. **Task 3**: Design DeadCodeAnalyzerBox API and format
+3. **Task 4**: Implement DeadCodeAnalyzerBox
+4. **Task 5**: Create test cases and smoke script
+5. **Task 6**: Update documentation and commit

+# Nyash Specs (Legacy / Experimental)
+
+このディレクトリは、古い仕様案や実験的なスペックを一時的に置いておくための場所だよ。
+
+## ステータス
+
+- `specs/` 全体のステータス: **Legacy / Cleanup対象**
+- 現行仕様の「正本」は `docs/reference/` と `docs/architecture/` 側に集約していく方針だよ。
+
+## 現在の主なファイル
+
+- `language/index-operator.md`  
+  - 配列 / マップ向けの `[]` インデックス演算子の設計メモ。  
+  - Phase‑20.31 スコープの設計案として残しているよ。
+
+## 運用ルール（提案）
+
+- 新しい仕様はここではなく、まず `docs/private/`（案）か `docs/reference/`（正本）に置く。  
+- `specs/` にある文書は、以下のどちらかに徐々に移していく:
+  - 内容が現行仕様として生きている → `docs/reference/` / `docs/architecture/` に昇格して整理する。
+  - 歴史的な価値のみ → `docs/archive/specs/` 以下に移動し、先頭に「Archived」の一行メモを書く。
+
+この README 自体は、「ここはAIや過去フェーズのメモ置き場だった」という目印兼、今後の整理方針のメモとして使うよ。  
+大掃除したくなったタイミングで、ここから順番に `reference/` か `archive/` へ移していけば大丈夫だよ。
