build-compiler

name	build-compiler
description	Build the TML compiler from C++ sources. Use when the user says "build", "compila", "rebuild", or needs to recompile the compiler after C++ changes.
user-invocable	true
argument-hint	optional release, clean, all, mcp

Delegation: Use the Agent tool to dispatch a build-engineer agent with model: haiku for this task.

Build Workflow

Determine Build Type

Based on $ARGUMENTS:

• No arguments: Debug build, compiler only (tml.exe) — safe, won't kill MCP
• "release": Release build with optimizations
• "clean": Clean build directory first
• "all": Build everything (tml.exe + tml_mcp.exe + tml_tests.exe) — WARNING: kills MCP connection
• "mcp": Build only tml_mcp.exe — WARNING: kills MCP connection

Execute Build

Preferred: Use mcp__tml__project_build MCP tool with:

• mode: "debug" or "release"
• clean: true if clean build requested
• target: "compiler" (default, safe), "all", or "mcp"
• tests: false to skip test executable for faster builds

IMPORTANT: Default target is "compiler" (tml.exe only). This is intentional — building "all" or "mcp" kills the running MCP server connection.

Fallback (if MCP tool unavailable): Use the canonical Bash command:

cd /f/Node/hivellm/tml && cmd //c "scripts\\build.bat --no-tests" 2>&1

Add flags as needed:

• release for release mode
• --clean for clean build
• --no-tests to skip test executable (default for quick builds)

NEVER

• NEVER use cmake directly
• NEVER use powershell to build
• NEVER skip the build scripts

Report

After build completes, report success/failure and the output path.
