 _Newest first. Agent appends on every commit._
 
+- 2026-04-25 — `append.pl` first classic program. `lib/prolog/tests/programs/append.pl` is the canonical 2-clause source; `append.sx` embeds the source as a string (no file-read primitive in SX yet) and runs 6 tests covering build, check, full split-backtrack (4 solutions), and deduction modes. Helpers `pl-ap-list-to-sx` / `pl-ap-term-to-sx` convert deep-walked Prolog lists (`("compound" "." (h t))` / `("atom" "[]")`) to SX lists for structural assertion. Total 154 (+6).
 - 2026-04-25 — `is/2` arithmetic landed. `pl-eval-arith` recursively evaluates ground RHS expressions (binary `+ - * /`, `mod`; binary+unary `-`; unary `abs`); `is/2` wraps the value as `("num" v)` and unifies via `pl-solve-eq!`, so it works in all three modes — bind unbound LHS, check ground LHS for equality, propagate from earlier var bindings on RHS. 11 tests, total 148 (+11). Without operator support, expressions must be written prefix: `is(X, +(2, *(3, 4)))`.
 - 2026-04-25 — `write/1` + `nl/0` landed using global string buffer (`pl-output-buffer` + `pl-output-clear!` + `pl-output-write!`). `pl-format-term` walks deep + dispatches on atom/num/str/compound/var; `pl-format-args` recursively comma-joins. 7 new tests cover atom/num/compound formatting, conjunction order, var-walk, and `nl`. Built-ins box (`=/2`, `\\=/2`, `true/0`, `fail/0`, `!/0`, `,/2`, `;/2`, `->/2`, `call/1`, `write/1`, `nl/0`) now ticked. Total 137 (+7).
 - 2026-04-25 — `->/2` if-then-else landed (both `;(->(C,T), E)` and standalone `->(C, T)` ≡ `(C -> T ; fail)`). `pl-solve-or!` now special-cases `->` in left arg → `pl-solve-if-then-else!`. Cond runs in a fresh local cut-box (ISO opacity for cut inside cond). Then-branch can backtrack, else-branch can backtrack, but cond commits to first solution. 9 new tests covering both forms, both branches, binding visibility, cond-commit, then-backtrack, else-backtrack. Total 130 (+9).
