Summary

Adds GDScript (.gd) language support: vendored PrestonKnopp/tree-sitter-gdscript grammar,
extraction (class_name/inner classes/funcs/methods/const/enum/enum members/vars/signals + call
edges), and test/gdscriptcheck.sh.

Measured on 13 open-source Godot projects that are not in this tree — 3,525 files, 58,128 symbols,
27,768 edges, indexed cold in 0.82 s
.

Before this change Godot repos were invisible: .gd fell out at crawl time as unsupported-ext, so
every ranked lens returned reason="no_candidates" — not a low-ranked answer, no candidates at all,
because the files were never parsed. --grep's unindexed-text fallback still scanned them, which made
the gap read as a ranking problem rather than a missing language. On a 224-file Godot game:
kept 0 of 40 → 9,946 symbols / 8,155 edges.

  • Lang::GDScript is APPENDED after Kotlin (index 23), never inserted — the value is serialized
    into the cache. Thanks to Dart Dart: a 23rd grammar, and the span arm its tree shape requires #75's kLangCount refactor, this change moves ONE sizing constant
    instead of the nine sites it would have touched before; the refactor did exactly what it promised.
  • No ingest_metrics.h or ingest_sidecap.h arm is needed, and that is measured rather than
    assumed: GDScript's function_definition carries a real body: field (so the ancestor walk finds
    it, unlike Dart's sibling function_body), and its parameters node is already counted —
    params="1" on the fixture's one-arg funcs, params="0" on the nullary ones, with
    cx/ccx/loc/nest/cbo all populated.
  • Hit the same rebase collision Kotlin feat(lang): Kotlin — vendored grammar, JVM-bridged call graph #126 records, in a different constant. This branch bumped
    the gate count 616→617 for its own gate; upstream independently landed a gate and also reached 617.
    The true total is 618. Resolved the way feat(lang): Kotlin — vendored grammar, JVM-bridged call graph #126 resolved its kParserVer collision — took the number
    manifestcheck actually counts rather than either side's, since a stale count that looks checked is
    worse than none.
  • Two capture choices are forced by existing gates, not taste. Enum members ride
    @definition.constant because @definition.enummember is gated by isPyEnumMemberTarget (a Python
    base-name test) and would silently drop every GDScript enumerator; member variables ride
    @definition.var because fieldCaptureKept() returns false for every language but Python and
    C/C++, so a field capture would vanish without a trace.
  • Godot 4 shapes were read off real parses, not node-types.json, which mattered twice:
    @export/@onready parse as a plain variable_statement with an annotations child (the
    grammar's export_variable_statement / onready_variable_statement nodes are the Godot 3 spellings
    and never fire on modern code), and super.m() parses as attribute + attribute_call, so the
    grammar's own base_call node never fires either.

STEP 0 — parse rate, measured before any code was written

Corpus Files Clean Degraded Parse rate
13 open-source Godot projects 2611 2580 31 98.81%
A private 327-file game 327 325 2 99.39%
Combined 2938 2905 33 98.88%

8,159 error bytes of 25.3 MB (0.032%). Five of the thirteen parse at 100%; the worst is 86.75%.
Harness built against this repo's own pinned core SHA; re-run end-to-end on a freshly re-cloned corpus
and reproduced to the byte.

STEP 6 — the blind spots, and what they actually cost

Classified by the FIRST error in each file; later errors in a degraded file are cascades. An earlier
pass over-counted match and else: if as causes until each was reproduced in isolation and parsed
clean.

  1. % scene-unique-name inside a path — 23 of 33 files (70%). $%Node, %A/%B, $Path/%X fail;
    %A and $A/B alone are fine. A Godot 4 feature the grammar never learned.
  2. Column-0 comment inside an indented block — ~7 files. A commented-out line between match
    branches reads as a dedent to the scanner.
  3. Godot 3 keywords still reserved — 3 files. grammar.js:100-107 reserves
    remote|master|puppet|remotesync|mastersync|puppetsync, plus onready/export. Godot 4 removed
    them; remote = {} fails, o.call(remote) is fine.

All three are UPSTREAM grammar bugs. Per guardrail G3 none is patched here — no fork is carried.

Their real cost is smaller than the parse rate suggests, and that is GATED, not asserted.
tree-sitter's recovery is LOCAL: a fixture holding blind spots (1) and (3) together still yields every
definition and every call edge, losing only the erroring sub-expression. test/gdscriptcheck.sh
asserts that survival, so the arm keeps passing if a future grammar bump fixes them upstream.

NOT in this PR

Dependency edges (STEP 5). preload/load("res://…") resolution is a separate round.
dependencyCapable() and depDialectFor() are deliberately untouched — they default to false/None,
and claiming capability without edges would make the dep_files= denominator lie.
.tscn, .tres and .gdshader are not indexed.

Verification

Local state on the exact tip — clean tree, binary stamp matching HEAD:

  • python3 test/pargates.py . ./build/ripwire -j 6 — 618 of 619 green. The single red,
    scroundtripcheck (B) cppqualfix: composed ids differ from the pre-change id= set, is
    PRE-EXISTING: a control run of the same suite on clean main on this machine produces
    character-identical failure text and the same single red. This branch's result is indistinguishable
    from main's.
  • test/gdscriptcheck.sh written RED first — against a pre-GDScript binary it exits 1 (rc read,
    not inferred), and it is pinned in gateexitcheck's FAILFAST on that measurement. 8 arms green
    with: definition kinds, case distinction, a decoy across two files, call edges (and no edge for an
    external Godot API call), the disclosed blind spots, cold/warm determinism, crawl-root independence,
    and that .gd is no longer reported as skipped.
  • Non-regression: 13 verbs byte-identical against a binary built from main, over a 3,040-file
    multi-language corpus containing zero .gd — map, metrics, clones, external-surface, callers, lint,
    for, pack-task, quality-delta, impact, uses, grep (~225 KB of output). Outputs under 500 B are
    reported INERT and not counted, so no comparison is vacuous.
  • Full G1 sanitizer stack clean (-DRIPWIRE_ASAN=ON: address, undefined, integer,
    float-divide-by-zero, float-cast-overflow, -fno-sanitize-recover=all) over four corpora — the
    2,611-file external corpus (verified non-empty; the run indexed 3,525 files / 58,128 symbols), a
    224-file private game, the fixtures, and the new fuzz seed. rc=0, zero reports.
  • The vendored scanner's serialize() audited for write width and classified loop1 in
    test/vendorpatchcheck.sh: structurally identical to python's (the scanner derives from it) — a
    delimiter_count clamped to UINT8_MAX then an unguarded memcpy, so the pre-loop write is at
    most 1 + 255 = 256 against a 1024-byte buffer, then a bare size < BUFFER_SIZE guard paired with a
    1-byte buffer[size++] write.
  • kParserVer 96→97 with kIngestParserVerMirror; test/qschemetrip.hash and
    test/printf_parity.manifest re-pinned after reviewing every delta (help/help_all gain the
    GDScript line; lint_catalog gains ,gd on the language-agnostic naming rules; match gains
    gdscript plus the 3 new fixture files). docs/COMMANDS.md REGENERATED via
    docs/docs_commands_build.py, not hand-edited.

Test plan

  • python3 test/pargates.py . ./build/ripwire -j 6 — 618/619, sole red pre-existing on main
    (verified by a control run of the same suite on a clean main build)
  • test/gdscriptcheck.sh — 8 arms ALL PASS; exits 1 against a pre-GDScript binary

  • G1 sanitizer stack over 4 corpora — rc=0, zero reports, runs verified non-vacuous
  • 13-verb byte-identical non-regression vs a main-built binary on a 3,040-file corpus
  • Determinism (cold == warm, two runs byte-identical) and well-formed XML, in the gate

Godot projects were invisible: .gd fell out at crawl time as unsupported-ext, so every
ranked lens returned reason="no_candidates" on a Godot repo — not a low-ranked answer,
no candidates at all, because the files were never parsed. --grep's unindexed-text
fallback still scanned them, which made the gap read as a ranking problem rather than a
missing language.

STEP 0, measured before any code was written (prompts/add-a-language.md): 98.88% of 2938
real .gd files parse with zero ERROR/MISSING nodes — 13 open-source Godot projects (2611
files, 98.81%) plus a private game (327 files, 99.39%); 8159 error bytes of 25.3 MB
(0.032%). Measured against this repo's own pinned core SHA.

Three upstream grammar gaps survive and are DISCLOSED, not patched (guardrail G3 — no
fork is carried): the % scene-unique-name inside a path ($%Node, %A/%B — 70% of all
failures), a column-0 comment inside an indented block, and the Godot 3 RPC keywords
still reserved as identifiers. Their cost is smaller than the rate implies, and that is
GATED rather than asserted: tree-sitter's recovery is local, so a file holding those gaps
still yields every definition and every call edge. test/gdscriptcheck.sh asserts that
survival, so the arm keeps passing if a bump fixes them upstream.

Lang::GDScript is APPENDED after Kotlin (index 23) — never inserted; the value is
serialized into the cache. kLangCount is the only sizing site that moved, because the
per-language arrays now derive from it rather than naming the last enumerator.

Every tags.scm pattern was read off a real ts_node_string parse, not node-types.json —
which mattered twice. In Godot 4, @export/@onready parse as a plain variable_statement
with an annotations child (the grammar's export_variable_statement and
onready_variable_statement nodes are Godot 3 forms and never fire), and super.m() parses
as attribute + attribute_call, so base_call never fires either.

Two capture choices are forced by gates in ingest_names.h, not taste: enum members ride
@definition.constant because @definition.enummember is gated by isPyEnumMemberTarget and
would silently drop every GDScript enumerator; member vars ride @definition.var because
fieldCaptureKept() returns false for every language but Python and C/C++, so a field
capture would vanish without a trace.

Dependency edges (STEP 5) are NOT in this change. dependencyCapable() and depDialectFor()
are deliberately untouched: they default to false/None, and claiming capability without
preload/load("res://…") edges would make the dep_files= denominator lie.

Verified: full gate suite green; test/gdscriptcheck.sh written RED first (exits 1 against
a pre-GDScript binary, rc read not inferred, and pinned in gateexitcheck's FAILFAST on
that measurement); ASan/LSan clean over all three corpora (2611 + 224 + fixtures, rc=0,
no leaks). The vendored scanner's serialize() was audited for write width and classified
loop1: structurally identical to python's, a delimiter_count clamped to UINT8_MAX then an
unguarded memcpy, so the pre-loop write is at most 256 bytes against a 1024-byte buffer,
then a bare guard paired with 1-byte writes. kParserVer 96->97 with its mirror;
qschemetrip.hash and printf_parity.manifest re-pinned after reviewing every delta (help
and help_all gain the GDScript line; lint_catalog gains ",gd" on the language-agnostic
naming rules; match gains "gdscript" plus the 3 new fixture files). docs/COMMANDS.md
regenerated, not hand-edited.

On a 224-file Godot codebase: kept 0 of 40 / no_candidates -> 9288 symbols, 7480 edges.
