PR Review — feat(interp): add Pool for multi-goroutine interpreter use

Decision

✅ Ready to merge

Merge Readiness Summary

This PR is merge-ready. It adds a focused, well-tested feature for concurrent VM use by enabling multiple goroutines to share a single Program and borrow Interpreter instances from a pool. The implementation follows Go concurrency best practices, has comprehensive test coverage including concurrent stress testing, and properly documents the new API and safety invariants.

Analysis

Scope Control

• ✅ Feature is well-defined and focused (Pool only)
• ✅ No unrelated cleanups or refactoring
• ✅ Single commit with clear purpose

Correctness

• ✅ Concurrency patterns are correct:
  • CAS loop properly retries on contention
  • Channel handling safe on close (ok check)
  • Mutex placement correct (protects closed flag and idle drains)
  • Atomic operations used efficiently for live count
• ✅ Get() blocking behavior correct (respects context)
• ✅ Put() reset and draining logic correct
• ✅ Close() idempotent and drains idle queue properly
• ✅ Run() defer ensures Put even after panic

Test Coverage

• ✅ 335 lines of tests across 6 test functions
• ✅ Covers all public methods: NewPool, Get, Put, Run, Close
• ✅ Edge cases covered: nil handling, context cancellation, closed pool, panic recovery
• ✅ Concurrent stress test: 16 goroutines × 50 iterations with race detection
• ✅ Tests serve as clear API documentation (no helper indirection)

Documentation

• ✅ Updated AGENTS.md with test guidance (go test -race ./interp)
• ✅ Added clear section to docs/architecture.md explaining Pool's role
• ✅ Important safety note in docs/memory-model.md: heap refs invalid after Pool.Put
• ✅ Roadmap updated with future optimization opportunity

API Design

• ✅ Follows naming conventions: NewPool, Get, Put, Run, Close
• ✅ Functional options pattern for constructor (forwards to Interpreter)
• ✅ Error handling with sentinel ErrPoolClosed
• ✅ Clear semantics: Get() borrows, Put() resets and returns

Architecture & Compatibility

• ✅ Additive only (no breaking changes)
• ✅ No existing APIs modified
• ✅ Consistent with existing Interpreter/Program design
• ✅ Uses standard library concurrency primitives

Risk & Validation

• ✅ All CI checks passing
• ✅ Codecov shows 91.17% of diff covered
• ✅ No new dependencies
• ✅ Clean mergeable state

Readiness Checklist

• Scope control: Pass
• Correctness: Pass
• Test coverage: Pass
• Architecture consistency: Pass
• Risk / compatibility: Pass
• Maintainability: Pass
• CI / validation: Pass

Final Recommendation

Merge — This is a well-executed feature with proper concurrency handling, comprehensive tests, and clear documentation.
