Hybrid Selfhost Build (80/20)
Purpose
- Provide a minimal, fast path to compile Hako source via Hakorune StageB to Program(JSON v0), and optionally run it via CoreDirect (inproc).
- Future: add MIR emit and ny-llvmc EXE build in small increments.
Script
- tools/selfhost/selfhost_build.sh
- --in <file.hako>: input Hako source
- --json <out.json>: write Program(JSON v0); default: /tmp/hako_stageb_$$.json
- --mir <out.json>: emit MIR(JSON) from source (runner path)
- --exe <out>: build native executable via ny-llvmc (llvmlite harness)
- --run: run via GateC/Core Direct (inproc). Exit code mirrors program return.
- Env:
- NYASH_BIN: path to hakorune/nyash binary (auto-detected)
- NYASH_ROOT: repo root (auto-detected)
- HAKO_USE_BUILDBOX=1: use BuildBox for emit-only (no run/exe)
Examples
```bash
# Emit JSON only (StageB)
tools/selfhost/selfhost_build.sh --in apps/demo/main.hako --json /tmp/demo.json
# Run and use exit code
tools/selfhost/selfhost_build.sh --in apps/demo/return7.hako --run; echo $?
```
Notes
- StageB emit uses either the StageB entry or BuildBoxHAKO_USE_BUILDBOX=1 for emit-only
- Runner executes CoreDirect in-proc under HAKO_CORE_DIRECT_INPROC=1.
- For heavier cases (bundles/alias/require), keep StageB canaries optin in quick profile.

Stage1 Selfhost Binary (Phase 25.1 — initial wiring)
Purpose
- Provide a concrete Stage1 binary (`hakorune`) built from Hako sources.
- Separate the Rust bootstrap binary (Stage0, `nyash`) from the Hakorune selfhost binary at the build-script level.
Script
- tools/selfhost/build_stage1.sh
- Builds a Stage1 selfhost executable from a Nyash/Hako entry point.
- Current entry (default):
- `lang/src/runner/launcher.hako` — Stage1 CLI launcher (commands: emit program-json/mir-json, etc.).
- Output:
- `target/selfhost/hakorune` by default.
Usage
```bash
# Build Stage1 selfhost binary with defaults
tools/selfhost/build_stage1.sh
# Custom output path
tools/selfhost/build_stage1.sh --out /tmp/hakorune-dev
# Custom entry (experimental)
tools/selfhost/build_stage1.sh --entry apps/selfhost-minimal/main.hako --out /tmp/hako_min
```
How it works
- Pipeline:
1) StageB + MirBuilder:
- `tools/hakorune_emit_mir.sh <entry.hako> <mir.json>`
2) LLVM EXE build:
- `tools/ny_mir_builder.sh --in <mir.json> --emit exe -o <exe>`
- The Rust binary (Stage0) is resolved via the existing helpers inside `hakorune_emit_mir.sh` / `ny_mir_builder.sh`:
- Prefers `target/release/hakorune` when present.
- Falls back to `target/release/nyash` otherwise.
Notes
- This Stage1 binary is a minimal Ny Executor and not yet a full CLI replacement.
- Full CLI / mode selection for Stage1 will be implemented in later phases; this script focuses on establishing the binary layout and build wiring.
