Six audit-driven blockers landed together because they're tangled:
* MENU TO removed from std.ch — the rule expanded to a call to a
nonexistent __MenuTo() RTL symbol, so any user code with `MENU
TO choice` compiled clean and panicked at runtime. Behavior
pre-this-round was a parser silent no-op, which is at least
consistent. Restore that until @ PROMPT (the companion command)
actually lands.
* COUNT now requires `TO <var>`. The earlier `[TO <v>]` optional
bracket was a Harbour-pattern transcription error: the result
template references `<v>` unconditionally, so a bare `COUNT`
expanded to ungrammatical ` := 0 ; dbEval(...)` and the
PRG parser rejected it. Match Harbour's std.ch which makes TO
mandatory.
* UPDATE FROM ... REPLACE now requires `FROM`/`ON`/`REPLACE` all
three. Same root cause as COUNT: the result template uses
`<key>`, `<f1>`, `<x1>` unconditionally; missing any of them
produced broken syntax. Tightened to fail loudly rather than
silently mis-expand.
* CLOSE <unknown_alias> no longer closes the *current* workarea.
SelectByAlias was a silent no-op when the alias was missing,
leaving WASaveAndSelectAlias to evaluate the inner DbCloseArea()
against the originally-selected WA — a real data-loss footgun.
SelectByAlias now returns bool; WASaveAndSelectAlias switches to
the no-area sentinel (0) on miss so the inner expression's
Current() returns nil and short-circuits.
* SUM <x1>, <xN> TO <v1>, <vN> — multi-pair form supported.
Required two pieces:
1. matchSegment's regular-marker stop-boundary now combines
outerTail literals AND the segment's repeat boundary so
`[, <xN>]` doesn't let `<xN>` swallow past the next ','.
2. **Five parser miscompiled comma-separated expressions in
code blocks.** `{|| e1, e2, e3 }` kept only the last expr
and threw away earlier ones at *AST level*, so all their
side effects vanished. New SeqExpr AST node + emitter
(emit each, pop intermediate results) + folding/walk
updates fix the underlying bug, which also unbreaks any
other block that relied on comma sequencing.
* pp.go's `;` continuation joiner now strips exactly one trailing
`;` per iteration, preserving Harbour's `;;` convention (literal
`;` followed by a continuation marker). Without this the SUM
rule's chained `<v1> :=[ <vN> :=] 0 ; ; dbEval(...)` collapsed
to a missing statement separator.
* parseExprStmt's xBase fallback switch is back in sync with
parseIdentStmt — COPY/SORT/COUNT/SUM/AVERAGE/TOTAL/UPDATE/JOIN/
DISPLAY/LIST removed (std.ch handles all of them now). Leaving
them in the fallback masked typos as silent no-ops.

Harbour lets a class define custom behaviour for arithmetic and
comparison operators via `OPERATOR "<sym>" ARG <name> INLINE <expr>`.
Five already had the runtime slot infrastructure (ClassDef.Operators
+ AddOperator + parent-chain copy) but parser skipped the form and
the VM ops never consulted the slots.
Parser: parseOperatorDecl captures the symbol, ARG binding, and
INLINE body into a MethodDecl with IsOperator=true and OperatorOp
set to the hbrt.Op* slot. Synthesised method name is __OP_<idx>
to keep the regular method namespace clean.
Codegen: emitClassDecl routes IsOperator members through
_def.AddOperator instead of AddMethod. Inline body generation is
shared with the MESSAGE/INLINE path (34485cd).
VM: Thread.tryBinaryOp walks the LHS object's class operator slot,
pushes args with Self bound to LHS, and returns true if the slot
is populated. Wired into Plus/Minus/Mult/Divide and Equal/NotEqual/
Less/Greater/LessEqual/GreaterEqual. Falls through to built-in
behaviour when no overload exists — non-object LHS costs one tag
check per op.
Operator symbol→slot mapping keeps `=` and `==` on the same slot
(OpEqual=8) because Five's gengo routes both to t.Equal() and the
VM doesn't distinguish strict vs non-strict equality today.
Tested (/tmp/test_operator.prg): Vec2 + - == < with per-field
results all correct.

Harbour's inline-method sugar was parsed but the body was skipped,
leaving any `METHOD X() INLINE expr` declaration registered in the
class vtable with no matching HB_<CLASS>_X function — link error
at build time.
Parser: MethodDecl gains an InlineBody Expr field. parseClassMethodDecl
captures the expression after INLINE instead of skipping to EOL.
New parseMessageDecl handles `MESSAGE <name> [(params)] INLINE expr`
and returns the same MethodDecl shape.
Codegen: emitClassDecl walks members a second time after the class
registration init block and emits emitInlineMethodBody for each
IsInline method — a Frame(nParams, 0) + emitExpr(InlineBody) +
RetValue function. curMethodClass is bound so ::super: inside an
inline body still resolves.
Tested (/tmp/test_inline.prg): all four patterns — bare INLINE,
MESSAGE INLINE, INLINE with params, INLINE reading ::field —
produce expected values.
FiveSql2 43/43, Harbour compat 56/56, Go test ALL PASS.

All 3 remaining known constraints resolved. CLAUDE.md now shows zero.
1. CDX compound index WRITE support (was read-only)
New file: hbrdd/cdx/build.go (~400 LOC)
- CreateOrAddTag() builds Harbour-compatible CDX files
- Bit-packed leaf pages (RecBits/DupBits/TrlBits compression)
- Interior nodes with big-endian RecNo/ChildPage
- Compound root directory (structural B-tree of tag names)
- Append-safe: preserves existing tags when adding new ones
- Linked leaf pages (LeftPtr/RightPtr for sequential scan)
Pipeline: INDEX ON expr TAG tagname TO file
- ast.IndexCmd gains TagName field
- Parser captures TAG name (was discarded)
- gengo passes TagName to OrderCreateParams
- indexer.go routes to cdx.CreateOrAddTag when TAG specified
Verified: 3 tags (BYNAME/BYCITY/BYAGE), OrdSetFocus by name,
SEEK, GoTop/GoBottom, close+reopen with SET INDEX TO
2. {||} empty code block parsing in function arguments
Parser's parseArrayOrBlock() called parseExpr() unconditionally
after closing |, failing when body was empty ({||}).
Fix: check for RBRACE after closing | and emit NIL literal body.
{=>} empty hash already worked.
3. Semicolon IF...ENDIF — already worked (removed from constraints)
Tests:
go test ./... 14 packages ALL PASS
