Details

77. Split the shipped data into Go modules per locale and country, which a library imports by choice, and embed every one in the CLI.

The CLI binary carries every module and may grow to hundreds of MB; a library imports only what it uses, as it imports any dependency, and nothing is fetched at run time. Goal 2 says what ships where. The maintainer decided on 2026-10-04: one module per locale, one per country's geo/ tree, and one for misc. A module registers nothing when imported; the code importing it passes it to New as an option, per the technical principles "Compose, do not entangle" and "Explicit over implicit". Still to decide: what a bare New() loads; whether a module's data is an fs.FS passed to the existing WithDataFS or a new option such as WithData(svse.Data); and whether WithoutShippedData goes. Before the module API ships, a panel of the README's audience personas tries pulling in data with it.

78. Ship 10% of every place's streets, at least 10, and 10% of all US places drawn by population, each place weighted by population.

Needs item 77. Ten streets per place crowds 500 Stockholm customers onto ten streets. geo-se.py and geo-us.py keep 10% of each place's streets, at least 10. geo-us.py draws 10% of every Census place, down to the smallest village, picking each with odds by population, and every table weights a place by its population, so a draw is not mostly tiny villages. Replaces the decision "The default embed holds every Swedish postort the import can place and give a street-delivery code and a street, and the US places of 25,000 or more", which the maintainer withdrew on 2026-10-03. Re-pin seeded output and the shape in their own commits.

61. Add a locale, with its geo/ tree, for each of the ten most-spoken languages and each Nordic country.

Pick the ten from a published ranking of languages by total speakers, such as Ethnologue's, each in the country where it has the most speakers, and record the ranking in the decision that names them. The Nordic ones are sv_SE (shipped), nb_NO, da_DK, fi_FI and is_IS. Each locale carries goal 2.2's categories, and its address reads its country's geo/ tree by reference.

16. Add the remaining locale categories: company, phone, finance, vehicle, words.

Shape: T = table, t = template, c = choice.

3. Rewrite the shipped categories so facts that belong together come from one named pick.

• sv_SE.person and en_US.person bind the first name and read sex and title through it: "first": "{.first-name as n}{n.name}", "sex": "{n..sex.name}", a title from {n..sex.title.name}.
• geo.SE.address and geo.US.address bind the street and read locality, postal code and region through it; the locale address categories bind /geo.XX.address once. They print it whole as {a}, so the country record's format appears once; revise the decision "A locale's address restates its country record's format".
• Needs item 2. Every shipped value must still pass its consumer's check before and after item 4.
• Re-pin seeded output in its own commit.

4. Draw every {…} afresh, keep a pick only by name, and delete drawGroup with the fences that held picks implicitly.

• Needs items 2, 3 and 71. After it, {/person} ({/person.first}) renders two people, as does {/sv_SE.person as a}{/sv_SE.person as b}{a} & {b}. {w} {uppercase(w)} renders b G where w is a choice of letters, and {/city.name}, {/country[SE].name} and {/country[SE].name} / {/country[NO].name} both load.
• Deletes the token-order rules (drawsApart, readFold, branches, the pairwise replay), the expansion hold fence, drawGroup, the own-family fence and the cell-reference fences, and revises the decisions that point here. The remaining draw checks are names, paths through names, cycles and the repeat cap.
• Fixes on the way: {/sel}|{/sel} panics out of Fake today where two draws land on rows whose cells select different rows of another table; it must render.
• Rewrites the README's References, Draw group, Correlated fields, Linked tables, Names and "One draw, one spelling" sections; the Linked tables section says which pick's weights govern a family, since the bound row decides.
• Widens the refusal of a name read once to every binding, a path into it or a reference path bound included, since {n.x} read once is then {/ref.x}, and deletes the names fence over draw groups and nested repeats (checkUses, readsHeld).
• Re-pin seeded output and testdata/shipped_shape.txt in their own commits; the CHANGELOG names the grammar change.

57. Rewrite CHANGELOG.md's [Unreleased] as what v0.1.0 holds.

Nothing has shipped, so "no longer paths", "where it used to fail" and "where it used to be an empty string" describe versions no reader can have installed.

2. Step up from a row to the row it links to with ..: {/city[Oslo]..country.name} renders Norway, and city[Oslo].country stays the cell NO.

• .. goes up one level, to the parent table, and the name after it is that parent's: {c..country.name}, and from a locality {l..municipality..region.name}. Naming any other table is a load error naming the parent.
• It steps up from a selected row, a drawn row or a name bound to a row.
• After .., . steps down again: {c..country.city.name} is a city of c's country, drawn afresh.
• .country after a row keeps reading the link column's cell, so the README's city[Oslo].country example stays true.
• A Fake path and --list take .. too; List keeps advertising direct descents only.

34. Add {isin()}, {cusip()}, {aba()} and {vin()}.

isin: Luhn over letters expanded to digits. aba: 3-7-1 weights. vin: position 9 over the whole; a sample taking the WMI, since the check sits mid-string.

5. Run the nine-seat comprehension panel after the draw restructure, and file what it names.

Needs item 4.

71. Accept a name as a calc operand, so {calc(n * 2)} computes from the pick {n} prints.

checkCalc and the value proof read an operand as a sibling field, so {calc(n * 2)} is refused with no field "n" today. Item 4 stops an operand holding its field for the expansion, after which a name is the one way to show the operand a calc computes from, as the README's Computation example does.

79. Beside a --data-path, load in New the user's categories, the shipped ones they override or read, and the shipped ones whose reads reach an overridden one; load the rest on first reach.

The decision "With only the shipped set, a category loads on the first call reaching it; beside a --data-path, every category loads in New" parses the whole shipped set on every --data-path run, about 45 ms today and seconds once items 61 and 78 land. Goal 6 needs only the user's categories, the shipped ones they override, the shipped ones they read, and the shipped ones whose reads reach an overridden category, so the index would carry each category's reads.

87. Split the README's last Records paragraph into one paragraph per rule, name the two shapes "either shape" means, and define or replace "a field hold".

Needs item 4, which rewrites the draw-group rule this paragraph states. The last paragraph under Records, from "A record written only to emit columns" to the Decisions link, holds seven rules, so "put a value two fields share in its own category" is hard to find. "Renders as either shape" names no shape nearby, and the README defines no "field hold".

58. Ship prebuilt binaries, a container image, and packages for Homebrew, Scoop and the biggest Linux package managers, so the CLI needs no Go.

GoReleaser attaches the binaries to the release the tag workflow publishes, and builds deb and rpm packages, an Alpine APK and an AUR package beside Homebrew and Scoop. A checkout build prints devel for --version; the binaries carry the stamped tag. v0.1.0 ships first, so it can be tested before it is packaged.

26. Spell sv_SE.personnummer with the + Skatteverket uses from the year the holder turns 100, judged by a date the caller gives.

The format hard-codes -, and its earliest birthdate, 1930-01-01, makes the oldest draws invalid from 2030. A system holding Swedish personnummer often breaks on the +, so a fixture carrying one is a valuable test. Whether a number takes + depends on the date it is read, and the decision "No builtin reads the clock, so a date is bounded by days, never by an age" forbids a builtin from reading that date off the clock. Steps:

• Explore how a caller passes data, such as the date a number is read on, to a render: in the template, as a plain option, or both. Bench the spelling; --now reads like the clock, and only the year counts.
• Decide and document what renders when the caller gives no date, so the output never depends on the day it runs.
• Reach birthdates back past 100 years, as Skatteverket's test series does from 1890, with birth numbers 980/981 before 1900, so a + ships before 2030; draw no birthdate after the given date, and decide what share of draws carries a +, such as enough that a few hundred rows hold one.
• Give a path that always draws a + number for the date given, so a test can ask for a centenarian.
• Spell the separator with a builtin, or another construct, that a data author's own category can use too, and update the README's personnummer recipe and its "a day in 1930–2025" count.
• sv_SE.samordningsnummer also hard-codes - and draws from 1930. Check whether Lag (2022:1697) om samordningsnummer gives it the same +; folkbokföringslagen 18 § states the rule for personnummer only.

81. Refuse at load every calc operand not proven numeric and every divisor not proven nonzero, in a string column too.

The decision "A constant zero divisor is a load error; in a string column a divisor that is not constant prints Inf" lets {calc(a/(b*c))} with b fixed at "0" write Inf into every row. An operand that is sometimes not a number prints NaN. Both work against goals 6.1 and 4. valueproof.go already proves a typed column's divisor nonzero.

36. Report every mistake a load finds in one error, as the decision "A load reports every mistake at once" states.

New and NewTemplate stop at the first, so data holding two mistakes takes two runs to fix. Split it into items before starting, one of them the shape a Go caller iterates and the CLI prints, and the order of an inline template's mistakes, which name no path; reword the README's "New refuses a mistake in the data" to every mistake.

88. Add a 12-digit YYYYMMDDNNNC form of sv_SE.personnummer and sv_SE.samordningsnummer, the form Skatteverket's testpersonnummer series and many systems store.

A system that stores the 12-digit form never meets the +, so it needs a fixture in that form.

41. Key every table by one key column, as the decision "A table selects by one key column, a code, never a free-form name" states.

geo.SE.municipality[Lund] and misc.territory[Sweden] select a row today. Steps:

• Have a selector that misses name the key of every row whose cell spells it, matched without case, else say the table selects by its key: misc.territory[Sweden] and misc.territory[se] name [SE], misc.protocol[tcp] its key, and misc.loglevel[Error] [err].
• Delete the name option and the load checks it carries, and have New refuse a table still carrying name, naming key.
• Key misc.loglevel on keyword, and geo.SE.locality on the integer data-import/geo-se.py assigns as the decision states, linking street and postal-code by it.
• Drop key from last-name and sv_SE.title, and re-pin testdata/shipped_shape.txt.
• Leave no selection by name in README.md, CHANGELOG.md, docs/ or --help.

52. Name the file a link error comes from beside its category path, sub.x (/d/a/sub/x.json): ….

With several --data-path layers the author has to work out which directory won, while a parse error on the same file names it.

28. Accept a middle name, and draw a personnummer whose sex matches a sex selected through a named pick.

Needs item 4.

24. Stop misc.territory[EH].tld rendering .eh, the one shipped TLD misc.tld does not hold.

ISO 3166 reserves it for Western Sahara and the root zone has never been delegated it, so no resolver answers for it.

53. Let a table column carry a datatype, so --format json writes "safe": true and --format sql a boolean.

Today only a JSON field takes one, so misc.httpmethod's booleans are typed in Go and text everywhere else. Typing a shipped column changes what json and sql write, so the capability is a minor and applying it to misc.httpmethod is a major.

44. Have misc.tld[se] select the row keyed .se, or have its miss name [.se].

The decision "misc.tld keys carry the leading dot, where other tables key on a bare code" leaves misc.tld[se] missing today.

54. Read the tag through git/ref/tags/{tag} in publish_release.py.

GitHub answers tags/{tag} with 404 whatever exists, so the burnt-version guard never fires and a release lands on a tag already pointing at another commit.

31. Rename misc.territory.country to sovereign.

It holds a code, and country collides with the misc.country path it replaced.

20. Weight sv_SE.sex and en_US.sex by bearers, as the README's Data section says they are.

Neither names a weight, so a bare sex draws evenly.

80. Walk a path through one per-step function that both pathCheck.walk and probePath call.

The decision "A path draws through its compiled steps" keeps two loops over one rule for passing a choice, a table or a field, and they have drifted: walk refuses a repeat or drawGroup level through enter, probePath does not (item 48). Technical principle: DRY.

50. Reword prove's refusal of a typed column reading a row, {/region}.

Say the format is the table's own (region's format "{name}"), name the read to write, {/region.<column>} with its columns, and stop calling a one-column format, {code}, composed text.

17. Give every shipped category a column for each part its format composes, and one record shape across the national ids; re-pin the shape.

misc.uuid gains variant, for one.

48. Refuse a Fake path into a level carrying a repeat, as the README's Correlated fields section states.

probePath skips pathCheck.enter, so Fake("x.a") under "repeat":3 renders one draw.

22. Give url and email a path that draws only domains nobody can register, keeping the wide set as the default.

17 of the 40 distinct ones shipped today sit on .se, .nu, .io and .co, which anyone may register, and only RFC 2606's example.com, .net, .org, .test, .example, .invalid and .localhost provably reach nothing.

29. Let a path go from a selected row into the template beside its family: geo.US.locality[1714000].address.

Require the path step to reach a sibling category.

42. Refuse a struct tag's datatype naming the Go type that sets it before proving its values, as the README's Library section promises.

datatype: boolean over {int(1,2)} on an int field answers prints an integer, not a boolean.

46. Report the same error every load for a table with two bad options, and for a folder with two unnamed rows files.

readTableOptions and loadDir return on the first in Go's map order.

14. Spell misc.creditcard's digit runs {digits(n)}, and refuse a repeat over a lone {digits(1)} at New, naming that spelling.

Both render the same run.

38. Compare calcParser.binary's operator as a rune.

byte(p.rs[p.pos]) reads U+012B ī as +, so {calc(a ī b)} compiles as a + b.

45. Name the node a selector follows in stepInto's refusal.

sv_SE.person[1].first answers 1 is not a table.

49. Report a CRLF rows file holding only its header as having no rows.

parseRows answers "line 2 is empty".

13. Place xlsx cells by their r reference in data-import/xlsx.py.

A sheet omitting an empty cell shifts every later column left.

39. Stop the columnKinds suggestion naming a field's own kind or a narrower one.

An int64 or float64 field unproven in range is told to become itself, and a uint64 one to become int64.

51. Spell a table one way across the errors that name it.

pinRow names t.path and mustRow panics with t.category, so one table is territory and misc.territory, and the short spelling names no file where two folders hold that name.

10. Test that every node kind reaches each switch over node kinds.

Needs item 4; recount the switches then. Today ten, from render to columnItems, must agree, and only render and renderEdges say so.

11. Test that every geo tree holds the five table names and the address columns that port across countries.

Nothing checks it, and a new country breaks it silently.

23. Give every other shipped category that could reach something real a path that never does.

phone draws live PTS and NANP ranges — PTS's five fiction series are the Swedish inert set, sourced in research-sources-se.md, and the NANP one still wants a source — and bankgiro, plusgiro and routing draw live prefixes.

8. Move binding, bind and checkNodeFences out of data.go into a file of their own.

The greenfield architect found the fence pipeline last. Needs item 4, which shrinks the pipeline.

9. Move table.route, selector, step and drawStep from path.go to table.go.

The inherited architect's 3am trace crossed four files for one draw.

40. Parse defaultTable's path with the library's grammar.

The CLI counts brackets of its own, so a change to the selector grammar desyncs the default --table silently.

75. Run every README sh, go and text example as a test, and compare each "Renders" line to a seeded render.

readme_test.go loads and renders each json block, but runs no sh example (CLI, Records, Table, Linked tables), no go example (Library) and no text block of error text, and compares no "Renders e.g." output, so goal 11.2 is not met.

86. Read both en_US.phone formats' area codes from one category, as their exchange reads en_US.phone-exchange.

Both phone formats carry the same 21-code area list, so an edit to one copy can miss the other.

47. Refuse a category naming a hidden rows file, "rows": ".x.tsv", as a rows file that is not there.

loadDir indexes hidden TSVs and skips them in two places, so one loads where its comment says a hidden file is never data.

72. Fail the merge gate when test coverage falls below the last recorded figure.

technical-principles.md holds that test coverage should not decline. docker compose run --rm cover prints the figure, and neither the Dockerfile gate nor .github/workflows/test.yml checks it.

7. Fill arm in one place.

splitArm runs before the link and again after it, and compileArm finishes it from reference.go, so five seats traced three phases. Needs item 4.

37. Rename newRand to newGeneratorState and Generator.rand to state.

Both name half of a generatorState, hiding its {seq()} counters, and New's local rng shadows the rng interface.

43. Call templateError a compile failure in its doc.

Its doc says render failure, and it wraps what NewTemplate and NewRecordTemplate refuse.

82. Pass newRand its entropy source, so no test swaps the package's randomBytes.

fejkdata_test.go swaps the global randomBytes to fail seeding, so every New in the package reads the failing source while that test runs. Technical principle: functional core, imperative shell.

56. Build on a manual run of test.yml.

workflow_dispatch leaves github.event.before empty, so the diff compares HEAD with itself and skips docker build.

83. Read a name binding's head and tail from its binder's link, and delete linkBindings.

linkBindings writes nameBinding.head and tail in linkRefs's first pass and linkName reads them in its second, so swapping the passes hands linkName a nil head. Technical principle: one owner per value.

63. Pair a street with its exact postnummer.

Needs an application to Lantmäteriet; today a street goes to the nearest postal code centroid. It rewrites shipped rows, so it is a major once 1.0 is cut and a minor before that.

62. Add {btc()} and {eth()}.

They need sha256 and keccak for Base58Check and EIP-55.

59. Promise in Generator's godoc that its renders run one at a time.

A caller wanting parallel throughput then makes one generator per goroutine.

65. Hold every change AGENTS.md says owes a CHANGELOG.md entry to one in CI.

The check covers data and testdata/shipped_shape.txt alone, where AGENTS.md adds a flag, an exit code, an exported name, a fence, a builtin and the lowest Go.

66. Cut the README's Layout block to the lines that say what a file name cannot.

calc.go, doc.go and cmd/fejkdata/ restate their names.

67. Cut AGENTS.md to the rules only it states, and explain every term its comprehension rule uses.

The gh rule opens by restating the decision "GitHub is canonical, and the module path names it", a second copy that drifts. The comprehension rule packs the gate, its exceptions, the round and the at-or-above-7.0 regime into one line, and uses "depth 1", "nine-seat", "four-seat" and "answers it in one run" without saying what they mean.

64. Give every entry in docs/decisions.md the goal it serves, its date, who made it and the premise it rests on.

Propose a goal for an entry that serves none.

68. Make gitea.larvit.se/larvit/fejkdata a pull mirror of GitHub.

Gitea converts a repository to a mirror only by re-creating it, so until that runs the copy there is a second owner of one history.

69. Announce v1.0.0 where a developer choosing a fake-data tool already reads, with a README first screen for someone deciding in a minute.

The human cuts v1.0.0 once the shipped data is in its record shape and one full minor has shipped with no breaking change, per the README's Versioning table; pairing a street with its exact postnummer rewrites shipped rows, so a minor with no breaking change follows it first.
