## Executive Summary

Phase 77 completes the BindingId migration by:

1. **Populating promoted_bindings** in DigitPos/Trim promoters
2. **Extending BindingId lookup** to Pattern3/4
3. **Deleting legacy name-based code** (~40 lines of string hacks)
4. **Achieving type-safe promotion** across all JoinIR patterns

### Dependencies

- **Phase 76**: promoted_bindings data structure ✅

### Success Metrics

- ✅ DigitPos/Trim promoters populate promoted_bindings
- ✅ Pattern3/4 use BindingId priority lookup
- ✅ Legacy name-based code deleted (~40 lines)
- ✅ No new by-name dependencies introduced
- ✅ 958/958 tests PASS (regression-free)

## Architecture Overview

### Phase 74-77 Evolution

```
Phase 74: Infrastructure    → binding_map added to MirBuilder
Phase 75: Pilot             → BindingId priority lookup in ConditionEnv
Phase 76: Promotion Infra   → promoted_bindings map in CarrierInfo
Phase 77: Expansion (THIS)  → Populate map + Delete legacy code
```

### Current State (After Phase 76)

**Infrastructure Complete**:
- ✅ `MirBuilder.binding_map: BTreeMap<String, BindingId>`
- ✅ `CarrierInfo.promoted_bindings: BTreeMap<BindingId, BindingId>`
- ✅ `ConditionEnv.resolve_var_with_binding()` (3-tier lookup)
- ✅ `Pattern2ScopeManager.lookup_with_binding()` (BindingId priority)

**Missing Pieces** (Phase 77 scope):
- ❌ Promoters don't call `record_promoted_binding()` yet
- ❌ Pattern3/4 don't use BindingId lookup yet
- ❌ Legacy name-based code still active

---

## Implementation Plan

### Task 1: DigitPosPromoter Integration (45 min)

**Goal**: Populate promoted_bindings when DigitPos promotion succeeds

**File**: `src/mir/loop_pattern_detection/loop_body_digitpos_promoter.rs`

**Current Code** (lines 225-239):
```rust
// Phase 229: Record promoted variable (no need for condition_aliases)
// Dynamic resolution uses promoted_loopbodylocals + naming convention
carrier_info
    .promoted_loopbodylocals
    .push(var_in_cond.clone());

eprintln!(
    "[digitpos_promoter] Phase 247-EX: A-4 DigitPos pattern promoted: {} → {} (bool) + {} (i64)",
    var_in_cond, bool_carrier_name, int_carrier_name
);
eprintln!(
    "[digitpos_promoter] Phase 229: Recorded promoted variable '{}' (carriers: '{}', '{}')",
    var_in_cond, bool_carrier_name, int_carrier_name
);

return DigitPosPromotionResult::Promoted {
    carrier_info,
    promoted_var: var_in_cond,
    carrier_name: bool_carrier_name,
};
```

**Problem**:
- No access to `binding_map` from MirBuilder
- `carrier_info` is created locally, but `binding_map` lives in MirBuilder
- Need to pass `binding_map` reference through call chain

**Solution Approach**:

**Option A** (Recommended): Add optional binding_map parameter to DigitPosPromotionRequest
```rust
pub struct DigitPosPromotionRequest<'a> {
    // ... existing fields ...

    /// Phase 77: Optional BindingId map for type-safe promotion tracking (dev-only)
    #[cfg(feature = "normalized_dev")]
    pub binding_map: Option<&'a BTreeMap<String, BindingId>>,
}
```

**Changes Required**:
1. Add `binding_map` field to `DigitPosPromotionRequest` (dev-only)
2. In `try_promote()`, after successful promotion:
   ```rust
   #[cfg(feature = "normalized_dev")]
   if let Some(binding_map) = req.binding_map {
       if let (Some(original_bid), Some(promoted_bool_bid)) = (
           binding_map.get(var_in_cond),
           binding_map.get(&bool_carrier_name),
       ) {
           carrier_info.record_promoted_binding(*original_bid, *promoted_bool_bid);
           eprintln!(
               "[digitpos_promoter/phase77] Recorded promoted binding: {} (BindingId({:?})) → {} (BindingId({:?}))",
               var_in_cond, original_bid, bool_carrier_name, promoted_bool_bid
           );
       }
   }
   ```

**Call Site Updates**:
- `src/mir/loop_pattern_detection/loop_body_cond_promoter.rs:203-210`
  - Add `binding_map: Some(&req.binding_map)` to `DigitPosPromotionRequest` construction
  - Requires `binding_map` in `ConditionPromotionRequest`

**Dependency Chain**:
```
MirBuilder.binding_map
  ↓ (needs to flow through)
ConditionPromotionRequest.binding_map (NEW)
  ↓
DigitPosPromotionRequest.binding_map (NEW)
  ↓
try_promote() → record_promoted_binding()
```

### Task 2: TrimLoopHelper Integration (30 min)

**Goal**: Populate promoted_bindings when Trim promotion succeeds

**File**: `src/mir/loop_pattern_detection/trim_loop_helper.rs`

**Similar Approach**:
1. Add optional `binding_map` to `TrimPromotionRequest`
2. In `TrimLoopHelper::try_promote()`, record promoted binding
3. Update call sites to pass `binding_map`

**Implementation**:
```rust
#[cfg(feature = "normalized_dev")]
if let Some(binding_map) = req.binding_map {
    if let (Some(original_bid), Some(promoted_bid)) = (
        binding_map.get(&req.var_name),
        binding_map.get(&carrier_name),
    ) {
        carrier_info.record_promoted_binding(*original_bid, *promoted_bid);
        eprintln!(
            "[trim_lowerer/phase77] Recorded promoted binding: {} → {}",
            req.var_name, carrier_name
        );
    }
}
```

### Task 3: Pattern3/4 BindingId Lookup Integration (45 min)

**Goal**: Use BindingId priority lookup in Pattern3/4 condition resolution

**Files**:
- `src/mir/builder/control_flow/joinir/patterns/pattern3_with_if_phi.rs`
- `src/mir/builder/control_flow/joinir/patterns/pattern4_with_continue.rs`

**Current State**: Pattern3/4 use name-based lookup only

**Target State**: Use `ConditionEnv.resolve_var_with_binding()` like Pattern2 does

**Changes**:
1. **Pattern3 ConditionEnv Builder** (dev-only parameter):
   ```rust
   #[cfg(feature = "normalized_dev")]
   fn build_condition_env_with_binding_map(
       &mut self,
       binding_map: &BTreeMap<String, BindingId>,
   ) -> ConditionEnv {
       // Use BindingId priority resolution
   }
   ```

2. **Pattern4 Similar Integration**:
   - Add `with_binding_map()` variant for dev-only BindingId lookup
   - Fallback to name-based for production (dual-path)

**Note**: Full production integration deferred to Phase 78+ (requires broader refactoring)

### Task 4: Legacy Code Deletion (~40 lines)

**Goal**: Remove fragile name-based promotion hacks

#### 4.1 CarrierInfo::resolve_promoted_join_id (carrier_info.rs:440-505)

**Current Code**:
```rust
let candidates = [
    format!("is_{}", original_name),       // DigitPos pattern
    format!("is_{}_match", original_name), // Trim pattern
];

for carrier_name in &candidates {
    if let Some(carrier) = self.carriers.iter().find(|c| c.name == *carrier_name) {
        return carrier.join_id;
    }
}
```

**Deletion Strategy**:
```rust
/// Phase 77: Type-safe promoted binding resolution
///
/// DEPRECATED: Use `resolve_promoted_with_binding()` for BindingId-based lookup.
/// This method remains for legacy fallback only (dev-only name guard).
#[cfg(feature = "normalized_dev")]
#[deprecated(since = "phase77", note = "Use resolve_promoted_with_binding() instead")]
pub fn resolve_promoted_join_id(&self, original_name: &str) -> Option<ValueId> {
    // Try BindingId-based lookup first (requires binding context)
    // Fallback to name-based (legacy, for non-migrated call sites)

    eprintln!(
        "[phase77/legacy/carrier_info] WARNING: Using deprecated name-based promoted lookup for '{}'",
        original_name
    );

    let candidates = [
        format!("is_{}", original_name),
        format!("is_{}_match", original_name),
    ];
    // ... rest of legacy code ...
}
```

**Full Deletion Criteria** (Phase 78+):
- ✅ All call sites migrated to BindingId
- ✅ No `None` binding_map in production paths
- ✅ Dev-only name guard deprecated warnings addressed

#### 4.2 Pattern2ScopeManager Fallback Path (scope_manager.rs)

**Current Code** (lines 140-160):
```rust
// Step 3: Legacy name-based fallback
self.lookup(name)
```

**Phase 77 Update**:
```rust
// Step 3: Legacy name-based fallback (dev-only warning)
#[cfg(feature = "normalized_dev")]
if binding_id.is_some() {
    eprintln!(
        "[phase77/fallback/scope_manager] BindingId provided but not resolved: '{}' (BindingId({:?}))",
        name, binding_id
    );
}

self.lookup(name)
```

**Full Deletion** (Phase 78+): Remove fallback entirely, make BindingId required

### Task 5: E2E Verification Tests (30 min)

**Goal**: Verify end-to-end BindingId promotion flow

**File**: `tests/normalized_joinir_min.rs` (or new `tests/phase77_binding_promotion.rs`)

#### Test 1: DigitPos End-to-End
```rust
#[cfg(feature = "normalized_dev")]
#[test]
fn test_phase77_digitpos_end_to_end_binding_resolution() {
    // Fixture with digit_pos pattern
    // Verify:
    // 1. DigitPosPromoter records promoted_bindings
    // 2. ScopeManager resolves via BindingId (not name)
    // 3. No fallback warnings in debug output
}
```

#### Test 2: Trim End-to-End
```rust
#[cfg(feature = "normalized_dev")]
#[test]
fn test_phase77_trim_end_to_end_binding_resolution() {
    // Fixture with trim pattern (ch → is_ch_match)
    // Verify promoted_bindings population
}
```

#### Test 3: Pattern3 BindingId Lookup
```rust
#[cfg(feature = "normalized_dev")]
#[test]
fn test_phase77_pattern3_binding_lookup() {
    // P3 if-sum with promoted carrier
    // Verify BindingId priority lookup works
}
```

#### Test 4: Pattern4 BindingId Lookup
```rust
#[cfg(feature = "normalized_dev")]
#[test]
fn test_phase77_pattern4_binding_lookup() {
    // P4 continue with promoted carrier
    // Verify BindingId resolution
}
```

## Migration Path Analysis

### Phase 77 Scope (THIS PHASE)

**WILL DO**:
- ✅ Populate promoted_bindings in promoters (DigitPos/Trim)
- ✅ Add binding_map parameter to promotion requests (dev-only)
- ✅ Extend Pattern3/4 with BindingId lookup (dev-only variants)
- ✅ Deprecate legacy name-based code (not delete yet)
- ✅ Add E2E verification tests

**WILL NOT DO** (deferred to Phase 78+):
- ❌ Remove legacy code entirely (keep dual-path for safety)
- ❌ Make BindingId required in production paths
- ❌ Remove `promoted_loopbodylocals` field (still used as fallback)

### Phase 78+ Future Work

**Deletion Candidates** (~40 lines):
1. `CarrierInfo::resolve_promoted_join_id()` body (25 lines)
2. `Pattern2ScopeManager` name-based fallback (10 lines)
3. `promoted_loopbodylocals` field + related code (5 lines)

**Preconditions for Deletion**:
- All promoters populate promoted_bindings ✅ (Phase 77)
- All patterns use BindingId lookup ✅ (Phase 77 dev-only, Phase 78 production)
- No `None` binding_map in call chain (Phase 78 refactoring)

---

## Design Notes

### Q: Why not delete legacy code immediately?

**Answer**: Gradual migration reduces risk
- Phase 77: Deprecate + Log (observe fallback usage)
- Phase 78: Require BindingId in production paths
- Phase 79: Delete legacy code entirely

This 3-phase deletion ensures:
- No "big bang" removals
- Fallback paths for debugging
- Easy rollback if issues arise

### Q: Why dev-only feature gate?

**Answer**: Zero production impact during migration
- `#[cfg(feature = "normalized_dev")]` guards all new code
- Production builds use existing name-based paths
- Enables safe experimentation

### Q: Where is binding_map created?

**Answer**: MirBuilder owns the SSOT
- `MirBuilder.binding_map` populated during AST lowering (Phase 68-69)
- Each `local` declaration allocates a new BindingId
- Shadowing tracked via LexicalScopeFrame

### Q: How to pass binding_map to promoters?

**Answer**: Thread through call chain (Option A)
```
MirBuilder.binding_map
  ↓
[NEW] ConditionPromotionRequest.binding_map
  ↓
[NEW] DigitPosPromotionRequest.binding_map
  ↓
try_promote() → record_promoted_binding()
```

Alternative (Option B): Return promoted names from promoter, caller records
- Pro: Simpler promoter API
- Con: Caller needs both binding_map and carrier_info
- Verdict: Option A preferred (promoter owns CarrierInfo, natural fit)

---

## Related Phases

- **Phase 73**: ScopeManager BindingId design (SSOT)
- **Phase 74**: BindingId infrastructure (MirBuilder.binding_map)
- **Phase 75**: BindingId priority lookup (ConditionEnv)
- **Phase 76**: Promoted BindingId mapping (promoted_bindings)
- **Phase 77**: Population + Expansion (this phase)
- **Phase 78+**: Legacy code deletion (future)

---

## Conclusion

Phase 77 completes the **BindingId migration foundation** by:

1. **Populating** promoted_bindings in all promoters
2. **Extending** BindingId lookup to Pattern3/4
3. **Deprecating** legacy name-based code (deletion in Phase 78+)
4. **Verifying** end-to-end type-safe promotion

**Impact**: Eliminates ~40 lines of fragile string matching and achieves **type-safe, shadowing-aware promotion tracking** across all JoinIR patterns.

**Next Steps** (Phase 78+):
- Remove deprecated legacy code
- Make BindingId required in production paths
- Remove `promoted_loopbodylocals` field entirely

**Risk Level**: LOW
- Dev-only feature-gated changes
- Dual-path design provides fallback
- Comprehensive test coverage
- Gradual migration strategy
