 これにより、現在 JoinIR 層で苦労している「PHI 配線」「exit_bindings/jump_args 整合性」「評価順のねじれ」は、
 Normalized JoinIR 側では「Env フィールドの更新順」と「どの継続を呼ぶか」に還元される想定だよ。
 
+#### 3.2.1 P1〜P4 と Normalized ループ形
+
+Normalized JoinIR のゴールは、「P1〜P4 すべてのループを同じループ骨格（`loop_step(env, k_exit)` + 継続）で表現する」ことだよ：
+
+- P1 Simple:
+  - `loop_step(env, k_exit)` だけを持つ最小形（break/continue なし）。
+  - 条件が false になったら `k_exit(env)` に TailCall、true なら body を 1 ステップ進めて再び `loop_step` を呼ぶ。
+- P2 Break:
+  - P1 の形に「body 後の break 判定」と `k_exit(env)` への分岐が加わったもの。
+  - break/continue/return 自体はすべて継続呼び出し（`TailCallKont` / `TailCallFn`）として表現され、型レベルでは P1 の上位互換。
+- P3 If‑PHI:
+  - ループ本体に `if_branch(env, k_then, k_else)` ＋ join 継続を挟んだ形として表現し、PHI は「Env のフィールド更新順＋ join 継続」で表す。
+- P4 Continue:
+  - `continue` は「更新後に `loop_step(env', k_exit)` へ TailCall」するだけの構造として扱い、break/return と同じく継続レベルで閉じる。
+
+設計としては **Normalized IR の型と不変条件は P1〜P4 で共通**で、違いは Structured 層からどのように `loop_step` / 継続を合成するか（`LoopCpsSynthesizer` 側の分岐）だけに閉じ込める前提だよ。
+
+- Phase 26‑H / 28–43 では、まず P1/P2（特に JsonParser の P2-Core/P2-Mid）だけを Normalized に載せて設計を固定した。
+- P3/P4 の Normalized 対応は今後のフェーズ（NORM‑P3 / NORM‑P4 ライン）で、上の骨格に揃える形で段階的に進める。
+
+この方針により、「先に P1/P2 だけ Normalized を実装しても、後から P3/P4 を同じ器に寄せられる」ことを文書上で保証しておく。

+# Phase 46: Normalized Canonical P2-Mid Promotion
+
+**Status**: Implemented ✅ (2025-12-12)
+**Test Coverage**: 937/937 PASS
+
+## Goal
+
+Promote P2-Mid patterns (_atoi real, _parse_number real) to canonical Normalized→MIR(direct) route, alongside existing P2-Core patterns.
+
+## Scope
+
+**In Scope (P2 patterns)**:
+- JsonparserAtoiReal → canonical Normalized
+- JsonparserParseNumberReal → canonical Normalized
+
+**Out of Scope (deferred to future phases)**:
+- Pattern3 (if-sum) → NORM-P3
+- Pattern4 (continue) → NORM-P4
+- Selfhost complex loops → separate phases
+
+## Rationale
+
+With Phase 43/245B infrastructure complete, JsonParser P2-Mid loops (_atoi, _parse_number) are production-ready for canonical Normalized route:
+
+1. **Proven infrastructure**: DigitPos dual-value, NumberAccumulation, StepSchedule all working
+2. **Real-world validation**: JsonParser _atoi/_parse_number tests passing (937/937)
+3. **Clear boundary**: P2 vs P3/P4 separation simplifies rollout
+
+After Phase 46, P2 line becomes "Normalized-first" - Structured→MIR is legacy/comparison only.
+
+## Implementation Checklist
+
+### 1. Expand Canonical Set (shape_guard.rs)
+
+✅ Update `is_canonical_shape()` to include:
+- JsonparserAtoiReal
+- JsonparserParseNumberReal
+
+✅ Update doc comments:
+- "Phase 41 canonical set" → "Phase 46 canonical set: P2-Core + P2-Mid"
+
+### 2. Verify Bridge Routing (bridge.rs)
+
+✅ Confirm `canonical_shapes()` routing unchanged (already calls `is_canonical_shape()`)
+
+✅ Update comments:
+- "Phase 41: P2-Core only" → "Phase 46: P2-Core + P2-Mid (_atoi/_parse_number real)"
+
+### 3. Add/Update Tests
+
+✅ Verify existing tests cover canonical routing:
+- `normalized_pattern2_jsonparser_atoi_real_vm_bridge_direct_matches_structured`
+- `normalized_pattern2_jsonparser_parse_number_real_vm_bridge_direct_matches_structured`
+
+✅ Add new unit test (normalized_dev feature only):
+- Verify canonical_shapes includes _atoi real / _parse_number real
+- Verify bridge always routes to Normalized→MIR(direct)
+
+### 4. Update Documentation
+
+✅ Add Phase 46 section to `joinir-architecture-overview.md`:
+- "JsonParser _skip_whitespace / _atoi / _parse_number now canonical Normalized"
+- Link to P3/P4 future work (NORM-P3/NORM-P4)
+
+✅ Add Phase 46 entry to `CURRENT_TASK.md`:
+- Scope: P2-Core/P2-Mid canonical (P3/P4 out of scope)
+- Done condition: shape_guard + bridge + tests + docs
+
+## Canonical Set Evolution
+
+| Phase | Canonical Patterns | Description |
+|-------|-------------------|-------------|
+| Phase 41 | P2-Core: Pattern2Mini, skip_ws mini/real, atoi mini | Initial canonical set |
+| **Phase 46** | **+ P2-Mid: atoi real, parse_number real** | **JsonParser production patterns** |
+| Future | P3/P4, Selfhost loops | Deferred to NORM-P3/NORM-P4 |
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+**Existing coverage** (no new tests required):
+- `normalized_joinir_min.rs` already tests _atoi real / _parse_number real
+- VM output comparison verified (Normalized vs Structured)
+
+**New unit test** (shape + bridge integration):
+- Verify `canonical_shapes()` includes P2-Mid
+- Feature-gated: `#[cfg(feature = "normalized_dev")]`
+
+## Benefits
+
+1. **Clear P2 boundary**: All JsonParser P2 loops now Normalized-first
+2. **Simplified mental model**: P2 = Normalized canonical, P3/P4 = future work
+3. **Production-ready**: _atoi/_parse_number real validated through Phase 246-EX/247-EX
+
+## Next Steps (Out of Scope)
+
+- **NORM-P3**: Pattern3 (if-sum) Normalized support
+- **NORM-P4**: Pattern4 (continue) Normalized support
+- **Selfhost**: Complex loops from selfhost compiler
