Summary
target.historybuilders and typed defaults for first useSemantics
History nodes are routing pseudo-states: they have no schema, never become active, and are excluded from ordinary state identifiers, snapshots, initial builders, and
local/branch/fulltargets.Each history node owns one overwriteable register:
Machine readiness tracks missing defaults and shallow initializers through the existing staged
.handle(...)model. Remembered values are schema-validated at persistence boundaries, including nested and parallel configurations.Verification
pnpm checkDedicated coverage includes defaults, exact deep restoration, shallow fresh initialization, overwrite/not-stack behavior, multiple history registers, parallel and nested-parallel restoration, same-microstep parent exit/reentry, lifecycle ordering, effectful initializers, and corrupt persisted paths/values.
The adversarial suite exposed a nested-parallel ancestor-value bug during development; the final scoped-history target preserves active ancestors and unaffected parallel sibling regions.
Type performance
Measured with TypeScript 6.0.3 and
skipLibCheck=true:Machine.defineStatesMachine.makemachine.handleA bounded optimization pass kept active/history filtering and readiness analysis intact. Further reduction would require weakening the filtered API or materially restructuring handler-topology analysis.
