# Cure LSP and MCP Update - November 26, 2025
2+
3+
## Summary
4+
5+
Updated both the Cure Language Server Protocol (LSP) and Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers to ensure compatibility with the latest compiler API changes. Both servers now compile successfully and are ready for use.
6+
7+
## Changes Made
8+
9+
### 1. MCP Server API Updates (`mcp/cure_mcp_server.erl`)
10+
11+
#### Type Checker API
12+
- **Changed from**: `cure_typechecker:typecheck(AST)` returning `{ok, TypedAST} | {error, TypeError}`
13+
- **Changed to**: `cure_typechecker:check_program(AST)` returning `#typecheck_result{}` record
14+
- **Impact**: Affects `compile_cure_code/3` and `type_check_cure_code/1` functions
15+
16+
#### Code Generator API
17+
- **Changed from**: `cure_codegen:generate(TypedAST, OutputDir)`
18+
- **Changed to**: `cure_codegen:compile_program(AST)` returning `{ok, Modules}`
19+
- **Added**: Module writing logic using `cure_codegen:write_beam_module/2`
20+
- **Impact**: Compilation now properly generates and writes BEAM files
21+
22+
#### Record Definitions
23+
- **Added**: `typecheck_result` record definition at module top
24+
```erlang
25+
-record(typecheck_result, {
26+
success :: boolean(),
27+
type :: term() | undefined,
28+
errors :: [term()],
29+
warnings :: [term()]\n }).
30+
```
31+
32+
### 2. LSP Server Status
33+
34+
The LSP server (`src/lsp/cure_lsp_server.erl`) was already using the correct APIs:
35+
- ✅ Uses `cure_typechecker:check_module/2` and `builtin_env/0`
36+
- ✅ Uses correct lexer and parser APIs
37+
- ✅ Includes proper record definitions via `cure_ast.hrl`
38+
- ✅ No changes required
39+
40+
### 3. Compilation Results
41+
42+
Both servers compile successfully with only minor warnings about unused variables:
43+
44+
#### MCP Warnings
45+
- Line 111: Unused variable `Line` (acceptable in error handling)
46+
- Line 477: Unused variable `FilePath` (reserved for future use)
47+
- Lines 980-983: Unused log functions (intentionally disabled)
48+
49+
#### LSP Warnings
50+
- Various unused variables in pattern matching and function parameters
51+
- All warnings are non-critical and don't affect functionality
52+
53+
## Testing
54+
55+
### Build Verification
56+
```bash
57+
make all # ✅ Successful with warnings
58+
```
59+
60+
### Executable Tests
61+
```bash
62+
./cure-lsp --help # ✅ Working
63+
./cure-mcp --help # ✅ Working
64+
```
65+
66+
### API Compatibility
67+
- ✅ `cure_lexer:tokenize/1` - Returns `{ok, Tokens} | {error, Reason}`
68+
- ✅ `cure_parser:parse/1` - Returns `{ok, AST} | {error, ParseError}`
69+
- ✅ `cure_typechecker:check_program/1` - Returns `#typecheck_result{}`
70+
- ✅ `cure_typechecker:check_module/2` - Returns `{ok, Env, Result} | {error, Error}`
71+
- ✅ `cure_codegen:compile_program/1,2` - Returns `{ok, Modules} | {error, Error}`
72+
73+

81+
false -> Errors = Result#typecheck_result.errors
82+
end.
83+
84+
%% Check module
85+
{ok, NewEnv, Result} = cure_typechecker:check_module(ModuleAST, Env),

106+
end, Modules).
107+
```
108+
109+

# Typeclass Export Feature
2+
3+
## Overview
4+
5+
The `export_typeclasses` feature provides a proper mechanism for exporting typeclasses and their instances from Cure modules. This addresses the semantic mismatch between how typeclasses work (polymorphic methods across instances) and how the traditional export system works (concrete function definitions).
6+
7+
## Motivation
8+
9+
Previously, attempting to export typeclass methods like `show/1` would fail because:
10+
1. Typeclass methods are defined inside `instance` definitions, not as top-level functions
11+
2. The export validator only looked for top-level `function_def` or `curify_function_def` records
12+
3. There was no way to indicate that a typeclass (with all its instances) should be exported
13+
14+
## Syntax
15+
16+
### Basic Usage
17+
18+
```cure
19+
module Std.Show do
20+
export_typeclasses [Show]
21+
export [show_list/1, show_separated/2]
22+
23+
typeclass Show(T) do
24+
def show(x: T): String
25+
end
26+
27+
instance Show(Int) do
28+
def show(x: Int): String = "<int>"
29+
end
30+
31+
# ... more instances
32+
end
33+
```
34+
35+
### Multiple Typeclasses
36+
37+
```cure
38+
module Std.Comparison do
39+
export_typeclasses [Eq, Ord]
40+
export [compare/2, min/2, max/2]
41+
42+
typeclass Eq(T) do
43+
def equals(x: T, y: T): Bool
44+
end
45+
46+
typeclass Ord(T) do
47+
def compare(x: T, y: T): Ordering
48+
end
49+
50+
# ... instances
51+
end
52+
```
53+
54+
## Implementation Details
55+
56+
### Changes Made
57+
58+
1. **Lexer** (`cure_lexer.erl`):
59+
- Added `export_typeclasses` as a new keyword token
60+
61+
2. **AST** (`cure_ast.hrl`):
62+
- Added `#typeclass_export_list{}` record with fields:
63+
- `typeclasses`: List of typeclass names (atoms)
64+
- `location`: Source location
65+
66+
3. **Parser** (`cure_parser.erl`):
67+
- Added `parse_export_typeclasses/1` function
68+
- Added `parse_typeclass_names/2` helper
69+
- Updated `collect_exports_helper/4` to handle typeclass exports
70+
- Added handling in `parse_module_item/1`
71+
72+
4. **Type Checker** (`cure_typechecker.erl`):
73+
- Updated `extract_export_specs/2` to recognize typeclass exports
74+
- Updated `check_exports/2` with new clause for `#typeclass_export_list{}`
75+
- Added `validate_typeclass_exports/3` to verify exported typeclasses exist
76+
- Added `find_typeclass/2` helper function
77+
78+
### Validation
79+
80+
When a module uses `export_typeclasses [Name1, Name2, ...]`, the type checker:
81+
1. Verifies each typeclass is defined in the module
82+
2. Returns an error if a referenced typeclass doesn't exist
83+
3. Allows the module to compile if all typeclasses are present
84+
85+
## Semantics
86+
87+
### What Gets Exported
88+
89+
When you export a typeclass:
90+
- The typeclass definition itself is exported
91+
- All instances defined in the same module are exported
92+
- The typeclass methods become available for use (through typeclass resolution)
93+
94+
### Import Semantics
95+
96+
When another module imports from a module that exports typeclasses:
97+
```cure
98+
import Std.Show [Show] # Imports the Show typeclass and all its instances
99+
```
100+
101+
The typeclass and all its instances become available in the importing module.
102+
103+
## Benefits
104+
105+
1. **Semantic Correctness**: Typeclasses are exported as typeclasses, not as individual methods
106+
2. **Clean Separation**: Regular function exports (`export [...]`) vs. typeclass exports (`export_typeclasses [...]`)
107+
3. **Better Error Messages**: Specific error for missing typeclasses vs. missing functions
108+
4. **Extensibility**: Easy to add more typeclass-specific validation in the future
109+
110+
## Migration Guide
111+
112+
### Before
113+
114+
```cure
115+
module Std.Show do
116+
export [show/1, show_list/1, show_separated/2] # ❌ Fails: show/1 not found
117+
118+
typeclass Show(T) do
119+
def show(x: T): String
120+
end
121+
122+
instance Show(Int) do
123+
def show(x: Int): String = "<int>"
124+
end
125+
end
126+
```
127+
128+
### After
129+
130+
```cure
131+
module Std.Show do
132+
export_typeclasses [Show] # ✅ Exports the typeclass
133+
export [show_list/1, show_separated/2] # ✅ Exports helper functions
134+
135+
typeclass Show(T) do
136+
def show(x: T): String
137+
end
138+
139+
instance Show(Int) do
140+
def show(x: Int): String = "<int>"
141+
end
142+
end
143+
```
144+
145+
## Examples
146+
147+
See:
148+
- `lib/std/show.cure` - Real-world usage in standard library
149+
- `examples/typeclass_export_demo.cure` - Simple demonstration
150+
151+
## Future Enhancements
152+
153+
Potential future improvements:
154+
1. Allow selective instance exports: `export_typeclasses [Show(Int, String)]`
155+
2. Support re-exporting typeclasses from imported modules
156+
3. Add typeclass visibility modifiers (public/private instances)
157+
4. Generate documentation showing which instances are exported
