plans/kernel-on-sx.md — Phase 7 header updated from "partial" to "env.sx EXTRACTED 2026-05-12"; second-consumer-found checkbox ticked for env.sx specifically. Other five files (combiner, evaluator, hygiene, quoting, short-circuit) stay blocked pending their own second consumers. plans/lib-guest-reflective.md — Phases 1-3 ticked off with date stamps; Outcome section added summarising the three commits, file stats (124 LoC, within 80-200 bound), and the third-consumer adoption protocol (cfg with five keys, no changes to env.sx).

- [x] Identified reusable env-reification + dispatch primitives across Phases 2–6. Consolidated API surface below as four candidate files: `env.sx`, `combiner.sx`, `evaluator.sx`, `hygiene.sx`.
|
||||
- [ ] Find a second consumer (Common-Lisp's macro-expansion evaluator? a metacircular Scheme variant? a future plan). Until this lands, extraction is blocked by the two-consumer rule.
|
||||
- [ ] Only extract once two consumers exist (per stratification rule). **Do not extract from this loop** — Kernel is one consumer; we need another before `lib/guest/reflective/` is real.
|
||||
- [x] Second consumer found for **`env.sx`**: Tcl's `uplevel`/`upvar` machinery (`lib/tcl/runtime.sx`). Same scope-chain semantics, divergent only in mutable-vs-functional update — bridged via adapter-cfg pattern from `lib/guest/match.sx`. Extraction landed on branch `lib/tcl/uplevel` (see `plans/lib-guest-reflective.md`).
|
||||
- [ ] Second consumers still needed for `combiner.sx`, `evaluator.sx`, `hygiene.sx`, `quoting.sx`, `short-circuit.sx` — all five wait for a language with operative/applicative semantics (Scheme, CL fexpr extension, Maru).

**Phase 7 status (updated 2026-05-12):** `env.sx` has been extracted and is live at `lib/guest/reflective/env.sx` on branch `lib/tcl/uplevel`. Both consumers (Kernel and Tcl) pass their full test suites unchanged (Kernel 322/322, Tcl 427/427). The remaining five candidate files stay documented-only until their respective second consumers materialise. Candidate second consumers in priority order: Candidate second consumers in priority order:

|

1. **A metacircular Scheme** — Scheme can reuse `env.sx` directly (same scope semantics), borrow `evaluator.sx`'s eval/make-env/current-env triple, and pattern-match the `hygiene.sx` story (Scheme has identical lexical scope). Would NOT need `combiner.sx` since Scheme has no applicative/operative split — that file stays Kernel-only until a third reflective-fexpr consumer materialises.
|
||||
2. **Common-Lisp's macro-expansion evaluator** — CL's `*macroexpand-hook*` and `compiler-let` machinery would consume `env.sx` (CL package envs map cleanly) and `evaluator.sx` (defmacro = an operative-like fexpr in expander phase). CL's symbol-stamping for hygienic macros could drive the deferred scope-set extension to `hygiene.sx`.

- [x] Add `tcl-frame-cfg` in `lib/tcl/runtime.sx`. `frame-lookup` and `frame-set-top` now delegate to `refl-env-lookup-or-nil-with` / `refl-env-bind!-with`. Tcl's `{:level :locals :parent}` shape unchanged.

2. The shared `env.sx` file is ≥80 LoC (substantial enough to be worth sharing) and ≤200 LoC (small enough that the cfg adapter pattern doesn't become its own framework).

3. A third consumer in the future can adopt the kit by writing only the cfg dict — no algorithm changes to `env.sx`.
|

## Outcome (2026-05-12)
|
||||
|
||||
Three commits on `lib/tcl/uplevel`:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Plan committed.
|
||||
2. **`reflective: extract env.sx + migrate Kernel — 322 tests green`** — kit landed; Kernel's env block collapsed from ~30 lines to 6 thin wrappers (`kernel-env? = refl-env?` etc.). Envs now carry `:refl-tag :env`. All 7 Kernel suites unchanged.
|
||||
3. **`reflective: Tcl adapter cfg — second consumer wired, 427+322 tests green`** — `tcl-frame-cfg` defined, `frame-lookup`/`frame-set-top` delegate to the kit. Tcl's frame shape unchanged. Functional update preserved.
|
||||
|
||||
**File stats:** `lib/guest/reflective/env.sx` is 124 lines, 13 forms. Within the 80–200 LoC validation bound. Adapter-cfg pattern proven to bridge mutable-canonical (Kernel) and functional-frame (Tcl) wire shapes via a single ~7-line cfg dict per consumer.
|
||||
|
||||
**Third-consumer test:** any future guest can adopt the kit by writing its own cfg with five keys (`:bindings-of`, `:parent-of`, `:extend`, `:bind!`, `:env?`) — no changes to `env.sx`. The shape-divergence problem is solved by parameterisation, not by forcing both consumers onto one wire shape.
