PART I
Warm-up
Reconnect with a useful idea before starting plan safe lifecycle and destruction. In one or two sentences, describe the input, output or host boundary from the previous exercise that this lesson builds on. If you are arriving directly, skim the worked example first; there is no locked prerequisite.
A rough note is enough. You can revise it after the example.
PART II
Instruction & guided example
Deliver a lifecycle acceptance artifact
An extension platform separates the script’s intent from native-service implementation, public compatibility promises, caller-scoped authorization and owner lifetimes. Those boundaries require explicit host contracts; import visibility does not establish resource permission or execution.
Supplied fixture: A session owns view H, task T and disposable output D. It closes before T completes.
Correct contract names each transition: H invalidated; T canceled/retained according to unresolved host policy; late T result cannot update a new owner; D retained while owned then cleanup eligible; removal confirmed separately. No unprovided cancellation API is invented.
The source anchor below is illustrative. WillowScript, its object/anonymous-function extensions and native libraries remain proposed/unimplemented here. Application and data symbols are exercise-host inputs. State missing signatures or recovery guarantees as requirements; do not invent transaction, cancellation or restore methods and do not claim these paper traces executed.

Try the guided change
Guided work: reproduce the fixture as a state/operation ledger and identify the exact evidence boundary supporting its conclusion.
- Write the supplied inputs and initial state before following the example.
- Reconstruct each intermediate calculation or host decision, then compare with the worked artifact.
- Explain why the contrasting alternative fails before attempting the changed inputs in Part IV.
PART III
Take a breather
Step back after the guided example. Look away from the screen, stretch, or reread your prediction. This is an optional learning pause, not a timer or an assessment gate.
When you return, try to name the lesson’s key idea without copying its wording. If that feels difficult, return to Part II and trace one line rather than restarting the entire lesson.
PART IV
Independent practice
Project context: Versioned extension architecture. Build a small, understandable change around plan safe lifecycle and destruction.
Deliver a timeline, owner table, late-result case, double-disposal case and failed-cleanup case. Use different disposable record/resource identities from the worked fixture. Supply intended invariant, step-by-step normal trace, contrasting failed trace, final state and unresolved host requirements.
What to produce
Deliver a timeline, owner table, late-result case, double-disposal case and failed-cleanup case. Include explicit inputs, intermediate states, correct final artifacts and acceptance criteria.
- State the intended behavior in a sentence before editing.
- Use only source-backed syntax and the host services whose contract you have been given.
- Record a normal case and a boundary or unavailable-resource case.
- Label hand predictions separately from anything actually measured in a supplied toolchain.
Syntax colors are a reading aid, not a compiler. The line you are editing stays uncolored until you move to a different line; capitalization is never changed. Drafts stay on this browser and code is not executed.
Need a hint?
Correct contract names each transition: H invalidated; T canceled/retained according to unresolved host policy; late T result cannot update a new owner; D retained while owned then cleanup eligible; removal confirmed separately. No unprovided cancellation API is invented.
The rejected conclusion “Only the session-close event” exceeds or violates the stated contract. Correct contract names each transition: H invalidated; T canceled/retained according to unresolved host policy; late T result cannot update a new owner; D retained while owned then cleanup eligible; removal confirmed separately. No unprovided cancellation API is invented.
Original learning-path task and reference
Integrate every section in this module into Versioned extension architecture. Submit .ws source, a list of approved host APIs, eight acceptance cases, and a short explanation. Demonstrate Separate native services from script behavior; Design stable public module boundaries; Validate transitive dependency permissions; Plan safe lifecycle and destruction.
import wuix.widget;
import app;
domain Workspace {
const application = Application({
name: "Workspace",
window: { title: "Dashboard", size: [1280, 800] },
events: {
"app.ready": fnc() -> void { console.log("Ready"); }
}
});
}Where the original task needs a host API that is not supplied here, write the contract and predictions. Do not invent a runtime result.
PART V
Self-check
Use this check to notice what to revisit. It does not award a private course grade, block another page or claim to verify compiled code. Every answer has a learning explanation.
You may keep exploring even if you are unsure. Use the hint, compare the trace, and revise your explanation.
PART VI
Recap & small task
Bring the idea back to the mod feature you are building. A useful recap connects the mechanism to a decision you can make in your own code.
- Deliver a lifecycle acceptance artifact
- A session owns view H, task T and disposable output D. It closes before T completes.
- Separate source-backed behavior, host requirements and untested predictions.
One small recap task
Change one timing, permission, version or ownership condition in the supplied fixture. State which final artifact changes and which invariant must remain preserved.
This marks your personal practice record only. It is not a certification or an official workspace assessment.
