+## Security and correctness review progress
+
+The v1.18.26 review identified missing-argument reads in standard-library built-ins. The current runtime now validates required argument counts centrally before any builtin indexes `args[]`. Covered calls include `math.abs`, `math.clamp`, `random.seed`, `random.int`, text helpers, CSV helpers, path helpers, and collection helpers. Missing arguments produce a beginner-facing `needs N arguments` runtime error.
+
+Focused regression coverage: `tests/38_builtin_arity.claro`, `tests/39_random_inverted_range.claro`, and `tests/40_call_depth_guard.claro`.
+
+The runtime now rejects inverted `random.int` ranges before modulo arithmetic with: `random.int needs the lower bound to be less than or equal to the upper bound.` This prevents invalid ranges from producing incorrect values or a divide-by-zero signal.
+
+User-defined function and object-method calls now have a documented maximum active call depth of 256. Exceeding it produces: `Claro function call depth exceeded the safe limit of 256. Simplify the recursion or add a stopping condition.` Ordinary non-recursive beginner programs are unaffected.

The expression evaluator now releases discarded intermediate `Value` operands and command boundaries release evaluated `SET`/`SAY` values after copying or printing them. `FOR EACH` now releases its copied collection after iteration, preventing discarded list/map copies from accumulating in long scripts. `IF` and `DO ...

A malformed-input ASan/UBSan/LSan smoke run did not pass: it reports two leaked `rt_error` message strings (140 bytes total) at `src/claro.c:142`. This unrelated existing diagnostic-path leak remains unaddressed and blocks claiming sanitizer-clean malformed-input handling. The `COUNT ... AS` command now releases its evaluated list/map value after extracting the item count. `python3 tools/validate_count_expression_cleanup.py` first reproduced a 28,000-byte leak across 2,000 list expressions, then passed with LeakSanitizer enabled after the fix. `GET ... AT ... AS ...` now releases its copied collection and empty-result temporary after storing the selected item; `python3 tools/validate_get_expression_cleanup.py` first reproduced 34,000 bytes of leaks across 2,000 empty-list lookups, then passed with LeakSanitizer enabled after the fix. Remaining memory-growth areas include other expression temporaries and command boundaries. The `RUN COMMAND` path remains trusted shell execution, not a sandbox.

The working-tree checks `make -s all`, `./claro test` (0 failures), `./claro doctor`, `./claro validate`, and `git diff --check` pass. This is a narrow ownership improvement, not a claim that all runtime allocations are leak-free.
+The `DELETE FILE ...` and `DELETE FOLDER ...` commands now release their evaluated path values after converting the paths to owned strings. `python3 tools/validate_delete_expression_cleanup.py` first reproduced 178,000 leaked bytes across 2,000 `DELETE FILE` expression evaluations under ASan/UBSan/LSan, then passed after cleanup. This check covers expression ownership; malformed-input diagnostic paths still have the previously documented `rt_error` message leak. The `COPY FILE` and `MOVE FILE` commands now also release their evaluated source/destination path values after conversion to strings; `python3 tools/validate_copy_move_expression_cleanup.py` reproduced 74,000 bytes leaked across 1,000 copy/move pairs before the fix and is the focused ASan/UBSan/LSan regression gate. `CREATE FOLDER ...` now releases its evaluated path value after converting it to an owned path string; `python3 tools/validate_create_folder_expression_cleanup.py` reproduced 200,000 leaked bytes across 2,000 calls before the fix and passes with ASan/UBSan/LSan enabled.

Text concatenation into a TEXT field has focused positive fixtures for both operand orders, including concatenation of two TEXT object fields. Each numeric operator names the text operand and explains that it needs NUMBER values.
 - Method return validation now has focused positive subtraction and division fixtures alongside the existing arithmetic return coverage, including compatibility `TAKES` / `LEARNED` subtraction and division cases, so checked NUMBER method parameters and numeric subtraction or division remain accepted by the release validator in both method spellings.

+Verified: built with `gcc -std=c99 -O0 -g -fsanitize=address,undefined src/claro.c -o /home/ubuntu/.hermes/profiles/maxwell/cache/scratch/claro-rng-probe -lm`; ran `ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=0 UBSAN_OPTIONS=halt_on_error=1 /home/ubuntu/.hermes/profiles/maxwell/cache/scratch/claro-rng-probe tests/43_random_int_extreme_bounds.claro` (exit 0, no sanitizer report). Before the change, the same full-range call failed with UBSan signed integer overflow at `src/claro.c:347`. This validates the extreme-range runtime behavior under ASan/UBSan; `make -s all`, `./claro test` (0 failures, including this fixture), `./claro doctor`, `./claro validate`, and `git diff --check` pass.

+## Expression-token cleanup
+
+Each expression now releases its token strings and token-array storage before returning. This is a narrow cleanup boundary; runtime-owned variables, loaded programs, and other allocations remain separate follow-up work.
+
+Focused verification:
+
+```text
+python3 tools/validate_memory_cleanup.py
+```
+
+The validator builds an AddressSanitizer/UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer binary, runs a repeated variable-overwrite probe, and confirms LeakSanitizer no longer reports allocations from `tokenize`/`toks_add`. The interpreter remains a trusted-script runtime, not a sandbox.
+
+## Overwritten-value cleanup
+
+Runtime variables and map entries own deep copies of their values. Replacing an existing variable or map entry now releases the previous string, list, or map value before storing its replacement. This is intentionally limited to overwrite boundaries; final runtime teardown remains a follow-up cleanup slice.
+
+## Split-argument cleanup
+
+Command argument lists created by `DO`, `CALL`, `TEXT ... CONTAINS`, and `RANDOM` are temporary parser storage. They now share one cleanup helper, so repeated calls do not retain the duplicated argument strings or pointer array. The helper does not change argument evaluation or syntax compatibility.
+
+Focused verification builds with AddressSanitizer/UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer, repeatedly exercises a four-argument `DO`, and checks the cleanup helper before confirming the existing string, list, and map overwrite behavior.
+
+The `REMOVE` command now releases its evaluated needle and copied list/map value after updating runtime storage. Focused verification: `python3 tools/validate_remove_expression_cleanup.py` runs 2,000 discarded string needles under ASan/UBSan/LSan; it passed with no reported leaks. This slice does not yet address the separate ownership of an item removed from a populated copied list.
+
+The `PUT ... KEY ... VALUE ...` command now releases its evaluated map, key, and value copies after `map_put`/`rt_set` have copied the data they own. Focused verification: `python3 tools/validate_put_expression_cleanup.py` exercises 2,000 string-valued writes under ASan/UBSan/LSan and passes with no reported leaks. This covers expression-temporary ownership only; broader malformed-input sanitizer runs still report the previously documented `rt_error` diagnostic-string leaks.
+
+## HTTP response handling
+
+HTTP responses are capped at 1,048,576 bytes. Exceeding the cap produces a beginner-facing runtime error instead of retaining an unbounded response. The curl status suffix is taken from the final status marker, so a response body containing marker-like text is preserved. Existing `HTTP CHECK` URL safety rules remain unchanged.
+
+Focused verification:
+
+```text
+python3 tools/validate_http_hardening.py
+```
+
+This validator uses a local HTTP server to check marker-like response text, status `200`, and the oversized-response diagnostic.
+
+## External command trust boundary
+
+`RUN COMMAND` intentionally executes a shell command with the user's permissions. It is a trusted-code capability, not a sandbox or an untrusted-script safety feature. Claro does not attempt a fragile blacklist sanitizer; users must review scripts before running them.
+
+Focused documentation verification:
+
+```text
+python3 tools/validate_trusted_command_docs.py
+```
+
+## Control-flow expression cleanup
+
+Conditions evaluated by `IF` are temporary runtime values. The `IF` command now
+releases its condition after choosing a branch, including when the condition is
+a text expression. This is a narrow cleanup boundary; other expression
+temporaries remain separate follow-up work.
+
+Focused verification:
+
+```text
+python3 tools/validate_control_expression_cleanup.py
+```
+
+The validator builds with AddressSanitizer/UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer,
+executes 2,000 temporary `IF` conditions under LeakSanitizer, and checks the
+expected output.
+
+## ASK temporary-value cleanup
+
+`ASK` releases the evaluated prompt value after converting it to display text,
+and releases the temporary input value after `rt_set_checked` copies it into
+runtime storage. This keeps prompt and input strings from accumulating during
+repeated input loops without changing prompt or input behavior.
+
+Focused verification:
+
+```text
+python3 tools/validate_ask_prompt_cleanup.py
+```
+
+The validator runs 2,000 prompt/input operations with AddressSanitizer, UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer, and LeakSanitizer enabled. The dedicated validator passes. A separate malformed-input sanitizer smoke run (`gcc -std=c99 -O0 -g -fsanitize=address,undefined src/claro.c -o ... -lm` followed by the generated malformed script) exits 1 due to two existing leaked error-message strings (140 bytes total) allocated in `rt_error` at `src/claro.c:142`; this is outside the ASK cleanup slice and remains a blocker to sanitizer-clean malformed-input validation.
+
+## GET KEY temporary-value cleanup
+
+`GET ... KEY ... AS ...` releases its evaluated map copy and key value after storing the selected value. `python3 tools/validate_get_key_expression_cleanup.py` runs 2,000 lookups under ASan/UBSan/LSan; before the cleanup it reproduced 1,004,000 bytes leaked, and after it passes with the expected output and no reported leaks.
+
+## COPY/MOVE expression temporary cleanup
+
+`COPY FILE ... TO ...` and `MOVE FILE ... TO ...` release both evaluated path values after converting them to owned path strings. `python3 tools/validate_copy_move_expression_cleanup.py` runs 1,000 copy/move pairs under ASan/UBSan/LSan; before the cleanup it reproduced 74,000 bytes leaked across 4,000 path-expression values, and after it passes with no reported leaks.

 3. Expand validation around typecheck diagnostics and package/networking safety. Current Forgejo/Gitea CI runs the documented release gates (`claro validate`, typecheck diagnostics validation, version convention validation, package security validation, compiler warning validation, and CI workflow coverage validation). The compiler warning validator rebuilds `src/claro.c` and blocks path-truncation warnings; the workflow coverage validator checks executable `run` steps rather than comments and requires its own command. Current package safety validation covers safe project creation, rejecting unsafe project names during `claro new`, safe manifest/lockfile creation, rejecting unsafe package names during `package add`, detecting unsafe package names already present in `claro.project` during `package doctor`, refusing to write lockfile data for unsafe package names during `package lock`, making `package list` fail instead of displaying unsafe package entries as normal package names, making `package init` fail instead of reporting the project ready when unsafe package names are already present, making `package add` fail before changing files when unsafe package names are already present, making `package remove` fail instead of reporting success when unsafe package names remain during lockfile refresh, allowing `package remove` to remove an exact unsafe package entry so learners can repair a bad `claro.project`, making `package doctor` reject stale lockfile checksums for listed packages, and making `package doctor` reject lockfile package entries that are not listed in `claro.project`. Current function validation covers correct checked calls, wrong-type arguments, missing checked-argument diagnostics, missing unchecked-argument diagnostics for simple functions in both modern `DO greet` and empty compatibility `CALL greet WITH` forms, extra-argument diagnostics, and beginner-facing unknown-function diagnostics for mistyped modern `DO` and compatibility `CALL ...

 3a. Keep package diagnostics actionable: invalid package manifest format fields now name the file and explain how to repair it, separately from an absent manifest. Keep package validation honest by checking that the project manifest has one non-empty project name, that the project and each listed package manifest declare the exact supported manifest version, package version, local source, and expected package name, and that lockfiles declare exactly one current release version.
 3b. Keep package security validation in Forgejo/Gitea CI so unsafe names, exact manifest-version/name/version/checksum mismatches, missing manifests, duplicate project manifest versions and packages, duplicate lock packages, duplicate package manifest names, versions, and checksums, and lockfile errors remain release blockers.
