Problem
parseSpeckFileonAccessControl.speckreturns:It does not parse the
input: { userId: String, resourceId: String, ... }record body into a structured type. As a result, the TS generator atcompiler/src/generators/typescript-state-machine.ts:215-225(added in B2.1) cannot extract the field names to put them instateVarNames, so the constraint rewriter cannotthis.-prefix them incheckConstraintN().Affected examples
5 examples have
input: { ... }record bodies:output:blocks seen in the corpus yet, but the same fix should apply)Scope
input: { name: Type, name: Type, ... }and produce atypeExprof the form{ type: 'record', fields: [{name, typeExpr}, ...] }.output: { ... }(likely a shared code path).Out of scope

Speckl#47 (B2.1) shipped the generator-side fix (forward constraints through
rewriteExpr) on 2026-06-02 23:00 UTC, but the emitted TS doesn't compile because input field names aren't instateVarNames. The parser fix is a prerequisite for #47 to fully resolve. This ticket is the follow-up.Depends on
None (independent parser change)

compiler/src/parser.ts, possiblycompiler/src/expr/stmt-parser.ts. Start by reading those + the existing opaque-record path to understand the AST convention.Verification expectations: When done, update this issue's ACs to

Subagent hit max_iterations after implementing the parser fix; CoS completed the verification (ACs 2-5) directly. All 5 ACs verified. No subagent result was trusted without independent probe.
