+0.5 KB.
+
+- **`language="c"` and `language="cpp"`** (C17 and C++20) compile with Clang 20

+# Compiler license audit — 2026-10-27
+
+**Disposition: the project's own code remains MIT. The license inventory gate
+passes for the pinned rebuilt C/C++ artifact set and its notice companions.**
+The owner approved releasing this C/C++ set on 2026-10-30. The old browsercc
+binary set is superseded, not retroactively cleared. See [CPP-REBUILD.md](CPP-REBUILD.md)
+for exact scope, build evidence and remaining non-license release gates.
+
+
+## What is cleared and what was added
+
+The bundled integration uses `@bjorn3/browser_wasi_shim` 0.4.2 under its MIT option
+and adapts the MIT Weblings worker protocol/sysroot format at
+`d0cd7a9f3af7d8249b3948ac0e19d2afc0d01633`. Their full notices already reside in
+`dist/THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.txt`; the distribution check now verifies both the names
+and complete text. The CodeMirror C++ grammar retains its MIT notice too.
+The project's LICENSE is unchanged. No compiler binaries are committed or packed.
+
+Added a separate `third-party/compiler/manifest.json` and source notice corpus.
+Each snapshot records its immutable source URL and SHA-256. The build emits
+`dist/COMPILER-NOTICES.txt`, this audit, and `compiler-license-manifest.json` so
+npm consumers receive the findings and available external notices. The local
+asset-preparation script also copies these companions beside each toolchain.
+The rebuilt C/C++ additions resolve its scoped inventory gaps.
+
+`npm run check:compiler-licenses` verifies notice hashes. Adding `-- --release`
+fails unless the owner has set `releaseApproved`. Use `-- --release --toolchain=cpp`
+for the rebuilt C/C++ license gate, which passes. This is an explicit
+compiler release gate, not a claim that a normal build is approved for release.
+
+## Historical browsercc C/C++ findings (superseded by the pinned rebuild)
+
+The reviewed npm archive is browsercc 0.1.1, source
+`86168bacf0fe7c662e3e65a2e3006ceb159cd0dc`; exact asset hashes are recorded in
+`src/runtime/cpp/assets.ts` and the audit manifest. The wrapper's MIT LICENSE
+has no explicit copyright-holder line; it is preserved verbatim. Package metadata
+names Daniel Bertalan as author; no invented copyright line was added.
+
+The recipe builds Clang/LLD from LLVM 20.1.2 (`58df0ef89dd64126512e4ee27b4ac3fd8ddf6247`).
+It obtains libc++, libc++abi and compiler builtins from WASI SDK 25's LLVM revision
+`ab4b5a2db582958af1ee308a790cfdb42bd24720`, and wasi-libc revision
+`574b88da481569b65a237cb80daf9a2d5aeaf82d`. These are distinct LLVM inputs.
+Their primary license texts are retained, including LLVM exceptions and legacy
+NCSA terms. wasi-libc's umbrella references Apache/LLVM, Apache, MIT, cloudlibc
+BSD-2-Clause, musl MIT, musl-fts BSD-3-Clause and allocator notices; these referenced
+texts and allocator attribution headers are included.
+
+The recipe explicitly removes sysroot `share/` and VERSION (share/ was later
+confirmed to contain symbol/configuration data, not a standalone license bundle),
+and the distributed
+sysroot contains no standalone license/copyright files. It also selects Emscripten
+`latest`, with no immutable SDK revision or complete linked-host-library list.
+The compiler Wasm files contain no producer/custom metadata that resolves that
+version. Root LLVM notices explicitly defer to component/file-level third-party
+terms; copying only the root license is not a complete compiler notice bundle.
+
+**Historical C/C++ blockers (resolved by replacement):** obtain upstream provenance plus a complete notice/SBOM bundle,
+or rebuild from pinned LLVM, Emscripten and WASI inputs while preserving notices.
+Account for Emscripten glue, linked libc/libc++/allocator code, and LLVM's included
+third-party code. Compare any replacement hashes and rerun browser/size tests.
+The current CDN pointer does not make the missing attribution irrelevant.
+
+## Rust (removed 2026-10-29)
+
+An experimental Rust runtime was removed before release. Its compiler came
+from a fork whose custom backend commits carry no license of their own, so no
+license review could clear it. The owner chose not to seek one; any future Rust
+runtime would replace those commits with project-authored code. Its audit, notice
+corpus and evidence remain in git history on branch `codex/c-cpp-runtime`.
+
+## Distribution and generated user programs
+
+Retain upstream copyright/license texts and applicable NOTICE files; identify
+modified upstream files where required by their licenses. Our separately authored
+integration remains MIT. Upstream recipe modifications (sysroot rearrangement,
+added bits/stdc++.h and stripped sections) are not our original authorship and need provenance in any replacement distribution.
+
+Compiling a user's program does not by itself relicense its original source.
+Linked libc/libc++ and other runtime code have their own terms. LLVM's
+exception is relevant to embedded object code, not a blanket exemption for
+redistributing the compiler, unrelated libraries or all generated programs.
+Don't tell downstream users that every output is automatically MIT or obligation-free.
+
+## Release checklist / owner actions
+
+1. Keep C/C++ scoped to the rebuilt, verified hashes and notice companions.
+2. Publish complete, immutable compiler distributions with companion notices;
+   test the actual CDN compression, CORS and notice URLs. Current transfers are
+   measured with a local gzip mirror, not verified production hosting.
+3. Complete physical iPhone Safari and Android Chrome memory/lifecycle/cache
+   testing. Desktop Chromium, WebKit and Firefox pass 22 checks each.
+4. Run the packed React/bundler/CSP checks, and decide interactive-input scope.
+   See compiler-validation.md for the detailed non-license gates.
+
+Sources: immutable URLs for every retained text are in the manifest; the build
+recipe is [browsercc](https://github.com/BertalanD/browsercc/blob/86168bacf0fe7c662e3e65a2e3006ceb159cd0dc/build.sh),
+superseded by the pinned rebuild in `toolchains/cpp/`.
+
+Validation: notice hashes, 77 tests, typecheck, build and distribution checks pass.
+The npm dry-run (2026-10-29, after Rust's removal) contains all three audit
+companions (932,733 bytes compressed, 77 files). Local asset preparation copies
+them beside the toolchain. The combined release check fails until the owner
+approves release; the rebuilt C/C++ check passes; successful packaging is not
+release clearance.
