Literal type syntax admits int, float, bool, null, string literals. A string literal type must contain no interpolation; interpolation is rejected during parsing with TPZ2001.

() denotes the unit type. (T) denotes the same type as T.

A structural record type may have zero fields. In a type position, {} denotes the zero-field structural record and may appear in an annotation, alias, parameter, or function result. Structural compatibility still requires the same field-name set. This type is distinct from the unit type ().

The ordinary expression {} remains an empty block returning unit. No empty structural record literal is introduced. An empty concurrent {} produces the zero-field structural record value.

A resolved type alias denotes its body with the supplied type arguments substituted for the corresponding declared type parameters. The alias creates no new nominal identity.

Named records, enums, and newtypes retain their declaration kind, name, originating module, and type arguments. Matching fields or a matching name from another module do not establish the same type identity.

Each terminal name denotes a distinct type. An incorrect type argument count for a listed name produces TPZ5022.

Length takes one compiler-owned marker from Pt, Mm, Cm, In and Em.

The marker is part of type identity and differs from the unit type (). Invalid markers and argument counts produce TPZ5001.

Physical lengths → and relative lengths → define their stored values and conversions.

A transparent type alias substitutes its arguments into its body and denotes that resulting type. Alias expansion must terminate; a direct or indirect cycle is a static error identified by TPZ5023. A reference to another alias must retain the body's type constraints. An internal unresolved placeholder does not turn an alias into a type that accepts every value. The current source-order normalization defects are recorded below, including a later int alias whose constraint is lost.

An inferred literal type in int, float, string, bool is compatible with its corresponding primitive type.

Resolved primitive types are compatible when their names match. An int value does not implicitly convert to float, and a float value does not implicitly convert to int.

A literal type target requires the same inferred literal kind and value from a resolved non-union source type. A broad primitive type does not narrow to a literal type during this comparison.

null has its own literal type. Scalar widening preserves that type.

Every member of an actual union must be compatible with the expected type. A non-union actual type is compatible with an expected union when at least one expected member accepts it. Different actual union members can match different expected members.

Union construction flattens nested unions and removes exactly equal members.

For the same Option, Result constructor, each actual payload type must be compatible with the corresponding expected payload type.

An already typed Array, Map, Set value requires exactly equal corresponding type arguments when compared with the same expected collection constructor.

Structural record types require the same set of field names and a compatible actual type for every expected field. Field order does not affect compatibility. An extra or missing field fails this comparison.

Function types require the same fixed parameter count and variadic shape. Each actual parameter type must accept the corresponding expected parameter type, including a variadic element type when present. The actual result type must be compatible with the expected result type.

Function parameter compatibility runs from the expected parameter type to the actual function parameter type. The result runs in the opposite direction. The same parameter direction applies to a variadic element, and fixed arity and variadic shape must match. Both Result payload positions follow the result direction.

Joining aggregate branches retains their structure while solving corresponding inference variables. A missing type argument remains unresolved until another branch or the surrounding expectation supplies it. An unannotated binding whose non-function result still contains an inference variable is rejected with TPZ5020.

An explicit binding type annotation supplies the expected type to its initializer.

Without an annotation, const retains the inferred initializer type. A let binding widens a top-level int, float, string, bool literal type to its primitive type. Aggregate types retain the result of aggregate inference.

An expected type guides expression inference and refinement before compatibility is checked. Incompatible fully resolved types produce TPZ5001.

For a nonempty Array, Set literal without element context, ordinary elements contribute their inferred types after scalar literal widening. Their union becomes the element type.

For a nonempty Map literal without collection context, keys and values are inferred separately. Scalar literal types widen, then key types form one union and value types form another.

During ordinary expression checking, each distinct structural record field uses its expected field type when one is available. A field without that expectation uses its widened inferred type.

A nonempty Array literal checked against a fully resolved Array<T> expectation uses T to check its ordinary elements and retains T as the resulting element type.

An empty Array, Map, Set literal adopts a matching expected collection type, including a generic parameter inside that constructor. A bare binding initializer without matching context is rejected with TPZ5020. Nested operands do not independently count as bare bindings.

For an if expression with an else branch, value-producing branches contribute their types to the join. A terminating branch contributes no value type.

An if expression without an else arm has the unit type in both value and statement positions. On normal completion it produces (). The selected then branch runs for its effects and its value is discarded.

Fresh scalar literal results in an if-with-else join widen before joining when there is no fully resolved expected type or literal-preserving context.

At the widening step of a branch join, an existing fully resolved union retains its member types.
