Compiler Contract: Requires GCC 13+ or Clang 16+ targeting -std=c++20. Relies fundamentally on <numbers>, concepts, and structured bindings.
# Build the unified bridge executable
g++ -std=c++20 -Wall -Wextra -Werror -Iinclude CognitiveEngine.cpp main.cpp -o cognitive_engine_bridge
# Execute interactive REPL driver
./cognitive_engine_bridge

Detect modernize opportunities, bug-prone constructs, and performance bottlenecks:
clang-tidy CognitiveEngine.cpp main.cpp -- -std=c++20 -Iinclude \
-checks="bugprone-*,performance-*,readability-*,modernize-*,clang-analyzer-*"
Scan the repository tree for uninitialized values, out-of-scope references, and null pointer dereferences:
cppcheck --enable=all --inconclusive --std=c++20 --suppress=missingIncludeSystem -I include .
Validate code indentation, brace placement, and pointer alignments against the LLVM style guide:
# Verify style compliance without modifying files:
clang-format --dry-run -Werror -style=LLVM CognitiveEngine.h CognitiveEngine.cpp main.cpp
# Auto-format in place:
clang-format -i -style=LLVM CognitiveEngine.h CognitiveEngine.cpp main.cpp
Run dynamic instrumentation to guarantee invariant preservation, zero-leak heap execution, and deterministic memory teardown.
Traps heap overflows, use-after-free, stack-buffer corruption, and memory allocation leaks:
# Compile with ASan + LSan instrumentation
g++ -std=c++20 -fsanitize=address,leak -g -Iinclude CognitiveEngine.cpp main.cpp -o asan_test
# Execute test run
./asan_test
Note
Pass Invariant: The binary must complete state initialization, rotation/decay mutation passes, and teardown with zero ASan crash reports or leak allocations.
Intercepts integer overflow, division by zero, unaligned memory accesses, and null pointer dereferences:
# Compile with UBSan instrumentation
g++ -std=c++20 -fsanitize=undefined -g -Iinclude CognitiveEngine.cpp main.cpp -o ubsan_test
# Execute runtime verification
./ubsan_test
Note
Pass Invariant: Full execution cycle completes with zero UBSan runtime trap signals or warnings.
