The pure swap is gone: a reload restarts every live object of a changed plugin
(documents and tables kept). Calls running at the commit and every call they cause
(the ctx call chain; an old flag on call from trusted links) run on the open old
attempt, which seals once its work drained and its successor's recorded requests are
ready, bounded by reloadDrainTimeout (5 s); then the successor's factory runs. New work
waits at the gate; same-host consumers see the draining object live; a reload cycle
fails at once with unavailable/reload_cycle. Example 64, design section 21 rewritten.
defineMessages with typed t, t.message/t.render for messages as data, the Translations registry with fallbacks and
conflicts, a locale preference per principal with the device as default and a live switch, useMessages and
scope.messages, formatTime/formatNumber. The tutorial gains a chapter on languages.
self.query(table, q, limit) runs before the object goes live and again in the commit step of every commit that
touched the table, publishing only the diff; a reload swaps the object. The tutorial and 59-chat use it.
src/next is src (the main export), src/next-node is src/node with short subpaths (/http, /workers, /plugins,
/plugins/runtime, /app, /surfaces, /web, /react, /tui, /tui/launcher); the foundations get /json and /watch;
Chord v1 moves to src/old (/old, /old/node) until p2 runs on v2; tests and docs move likewise (test/, docs/,
test/old, docs/old). Durable and env import the foundations from their subpaths.
