`usage generate go` emitted the tables binding reads and stopped there, which left the post-binding rules reachable only from a spec lowered at run time — the harness could use them and a generated CLI could not. Now it emits `Meta` alongside: required, choices, default, env, the var bounds, and the four that compare one entry against another, with their names already resolved to keys. Indexed by key, which is what makes a lookup an index rather than a map — and a Go map would have to be built at init, which is the one thing these tables exist to avoid. Commands take keys and have no cold half, so their slots are empty entries rather than gaps: `Lookup` checks the key it finds and reports nothing when it does not match, so an empty slot answers correctly and the index stays dense. **It costs nothing unless used.** Go's linker drops an unreferenced package-level table entirely: a binary that only binds does not contain `Meta` at all, and one that references it carries 217 KB for mise's 989 entries and still has no init function. That is what Rust gets from putting the equivalent behind a feature flag, except nobody has to remember the flag. Both halves measured with `go tool nm` rather than assumed. The tests that matter here are the join. `argv`'s unit tests prove the rules against tables written by hand and the corpus proves them against tables built at run time; neither exercises the emitter, which is where a field can be dropped, misnamed, or filed under the wrong key with everything still green. So the shadow now checks that all 989 entries have metadata describing *themselves*, that every relationship points at a real entry, and that mise's own declarations behave: `bootstrap packages import` fills `--manager` from its default, `--log-level` enforces the choices declared on the value it takes, and a value on the command line beats the default. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…in scope The same hole as the commit before this one, on the emitter's side: a relationship naming an inherited global or a negation resolved to nothing, so the key never reached `Meta` and the generated CLI skipped the rule entirely while usage-lib enforced it. Own flags first, then any ancestor's globals, which is the scope a token has and the order it gets it — so a subcommand redeclaring an inherited name shadows it here as at parse time. A flag that is not global still resolves to nothing from below, and the test checks that half too, since a looser search would get it wrong in the other direction. A negation names the flag it belongs to, matching usage-lib: `conflicts = "--no-color"` is about the `color` entry, and the conflict is reported whichever spelling was typed. mise's tables are unchanged — every relationship it declares is local — so the regenerated file is byte-identical. The fix is real regardless; it just was not reachable from the one large spec in the repository. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…typed boolean The form-matching fix from the commit before this one, applied to the emitter: `--q` reached the short `-q` and `-color` reached the long `--color`, so a generated CLI enforced rules usage-lib resolves to nothing. `--x` matches long forms and the negation, `-x` matches shorts, an undashed word matches the name. And a real bug in this PR's own test helper, which is the more embarrassing half. It recorded value-less flags in a `seen` map and then never read it, so a typed boolean left `given` nil — which `Fill` reads as "the command line said nothing" — and fell through to `env` and `default`. Nothing failed, because the tests here all use flags that take values. It records the empty slice now, which is the distinction `Fill` actually draws, and counts occurrences properly rather than inferring them from the number of values. `TestATypedBooleanCountsAsGiven` is the test that would have caught it, using mise's own `--quiet`. mise's regenerated tables are unchanged: every relationship it declares names a local flag by its long form. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The emitter half of the previous commit. `negate="-no-color"` is a form nobody can type as `--no-color`, and usage-lib does not resolve a relationship naming the latter to the flag declaring the former — so trimming the dashes before comparing had a generated CLI enforcing a rule the reference does not. Compared exactly now, which the emitter can do directly because it reads the spec rather than the parse table, where the negation is stored bare for the parser's benefit. mise's tables are unchanged: it declares no negations that any relationship names. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…r a token Two findings on the same function, and the second has a sharper justification than the report gave it. A negation was only matched inside the `--` branch, so `negate="-no-tint"` named by `conflicts="-no-tint"` — its own exact form — resolved to nothing. usage-lib resolves it and reports the conflict. Negations are compared as both sides were written now, dashes included, so the exact form matches and `--no-tint` still does not. And an ordinary form now beats another flag's negation, because searching per candidate meant an earlier flag's `negate` could win over a later flag's `long`. The argument is not precedence in the abstract: the parser tries every long form before it tries any negation, so with `--a` declaring `negate="--zap"` and a separate `--zap`, typing `--zap` binds *zap* — checked, not assumed. The table was pointing the relationship at `a`, which would have enforced the rule against a flag the command line never binds. The table has to agree with the binder it feeds, so it looks in the same two passes and the same order. usage-lib fires on both spellings here, because it compares declared strings against the given flags rather than resolving to an entry, so it cannot settle which key is right. The binder can, and did. Both fixed in the emitter and in the table builder the corpus uses, each with a test. mise's tables are unchanged: it declares no negation any relationship names.

In `@go/internal/spec/spec.go` around lines 239 - 248, Update the doc comment for builder.recordNegation to describe that it stores a non-empty raw negate spelling keyed by its key for later form comparison, rather than claiming it files a cold-half entry.

usage generate goemitted the tables binding reads and stopped there, which left the post-binding rules from #943 and #958 reachable only from a spec lowered at run time: the harness could use them, a generated CLI could not. Now it emitsMetaalongside — required, choices, default, env, the var bounds, and the four relationships with their names already resolved to keys.It costs nothing unless used
Go's linker drops an unreferenced package-level table entirely. A binary that only binds does not contain
Metaat all; one that references it carries 217 KB for mise's 989 entries and still has no init function:That is what Rust gets from putting the equivalent behind a feature flag, except nobody has to remember the flag. Both halves measured rather than assumed.
Shape
Indexed by key, so a lookup is an index rather than a map — and a Go map would have to be built at init, which is the one thing these tables exist to avoid. Commands take keys and have no cold half, so their slots are empty entries rather than gaps:
Lookupchecks the key it finds and reports nothing when it does not match, so an empty slot answers correctly and the index stays dense.The tests here are the join
argv's unit tests prove the rules against tables written by hand; the corpus proves them against tables built at run time. Neither exercises the emitter, which is where a field can be dropped, misnamed, or filed under the wrong key with everything still green.So the shadow now checks that all 989 entries have metadata describing themselves, that every relationship points at a real entry, and that mise's own declarations behave:
bootstrap packages importfills--managerfrom its default,--log-levelenforces the choices declared on the value it takes (a level of nesting the emitter has to read through), and a value on the command line beats the default.Stack

Metablob and relationship resolution must stay aligned with the binder; mistakes would silently drop or mis-apply rules across every generated CLI.Overview
usage generate gonow emitsMetaalongside the binding tables, so generated CLIs can run post-parse rules (required, choices, defaults, env, var bounds, and relationship keys) without lowering a spec at runtime. The cold slice is keyed likeRoot; command slots stay empty soMeta.Lookupstays a dense index.The Rust emitter writes flag/arg metadata and resolves
