The stepper's split-tag and steps-to-preview used (list) with append!,
but in the WASM kernel (list) creates immutable List values — append!
returns a new list without mutating, so children accumulate nowhere.
Changed all accumulator initializations to (mutable-list):
- split-tag: cch, cat, spreads
- steps-to-preview: bc-loop inner children, initial call
- result and tokens lists in the parsing setup
Also includes WASM rebuild with append! primitive and &rest fixes.

Root cause: sx_primitives.ml registered "effect" as a native no-op (for SSR).
The bytecode compiler's (primitive? "effect") returned true, so it emitted
OP_CALL_PRIM instead of OP_GLOBAL_GET + OP_CALL. The VM's CALL_PRIM handler
found the native Nil-returning stub and never called the real effect function
from core-signals.sx.
Fix: Remove effect and register-in-scope from the primitives table. The server
overrides them via env_bind in sx_server.ml (after compilation), which doesn't
affect primitive? checks.
Also: VM CALL_PRIM now falls back to cek_call for non-NativeFn values (safety
net for any other functions that get misclassified).
15/15 source mode, 15/15 bytecode mode.

- signals.sx: guard effect body with (when (client?) ...) so effects
are no-op during SSR — only 2 stubs needed (effect, register-in-scope)
- sx_primitives.ml: add resource SSR stub (returns signal {loading: true}),
remove 27 unnecessary browser primitive stubs
- sx_server.ml: native component-source that looks up Component/Island
from env and pretty-prints the definition (replaces broken Python helper)
- reactive-islands/index.sx: Examples section with all 15 live demos
inline + highlighted source via component-source
- reactive-islands/demo.sx: replace 14 hardcoded highlight strings with
(component-source "~name") calls for always-current source

signal-add-sub! used (append! subscribers f) which returns a new list
for immutable List but discards the result — after signal-remove-sub!
replaces the subscribers list via dict-set!, re-adding subscribers
silently fails. Counter island only worked once (0→1 then stuck).
Fix: use (dict-set! s "subscribers" (append ...)) to explicitly update
the dict field, matching signal-remove-sub!'s pattern.
Build pipeline fixes:
- sx-build-all.sh now bundles spec→dist and recompiles .sxbc bytecode
- compile-modules.js syncs .sx source files alongside .sxbc to wasm/sx/
- Per-file cache busting: wasm, platform JS, and sxbc each get own hash
- bundle.sh adds cssx.sx to dist

Browser kernel:
- Add `parse` native fn (matches server: unwrap single, list for multiple)
- Restore env==global_env guard on _env_bind_hook (let bindings must not
leak to _vm_globals — caused JIT CSSX "Not callable: nil" errors)
- Add _env_bind_hook call in env_set_id so set! mutations sync to VM globals
- Fire _vm_global_set_hook from OP_DEFINE so VM defines sync back to CEK env
CEK evaluator:
- Replace recursive cek_run with iterative while loop using sx_truthy
(previous attempt used strict Bool true matching, broke in wasm_of_ocaml)
- Remove dead cek_run_iterative function
Web modules:
- Remove find-matching-route and parse-route-pattern stubs from
boot-helpers.sx that shadowed real implementations from router.sx
- Sync boot-helpers.sx to dist/static dirs for bytecode compilation
Platform (sx-platform.js):
- Set data-sx-ready attribute after boot completes (was only in boot-init
which sx-platform.js doesn't call — it steps through boot manually)
- Add document-level click delegation for a[sx-get] links as workaround
for bytecoded bind-event not attaching per-element listeners (VM closure
issue under investigation — bind-event runs but dom-add-listener calls
don't result in addEventListener)
Tests:
- New test_kernel.js: 24 tests covering env sync, parse, route matching,
host FFI/preventDefault, deep recursion
- New navigation test: "sx-get link fetches SX not HTML and preserves layout"
(currently catches layout breakage after SPA swap — known issue)
Known remaining issues:
- JIT CSSX failures: closure-captured variables resolve to nil in VM bytecode
- SPA content swap via execute-request breaks page layout
- Bytecoded bind-event doesn't attach per-element addEventListener (root
cause unknown — when listen-target guard appears to block despite element
being valid)

Replace Node.js compile-modules.js with direct Sx_compiler.compile_module
calls in mcp_tree.ml. No subprocess, no JIT warm-up, no Node.js.
23 files compile in 1.9 seconds.
Also includes rebuilt WASM kernel (iterative cek_run) and all 23
bytecode modules recompiled with native compiler.

Bytecode modules are now serialized as s-expressions (.sxbc) in addition
to JSON (.sxbc.json). The .sxbc format is the canonical representation —
content-addressable, parseable by the SX parser, and suitable for CID
referencing. Annotation layers (source maps, variable names, tests, docs)
can reference the bytecode CID without polluting the bytecode itself.
Format: (sxbc version hash (code :arity N :bytecode (...) :constants (...)))
The browser loader tries .sxbc first (via load-sxbc kernel primitive),
falls back to .sxbc.json. Caddy needs .sxbc MIME type to serve the new
format (currently 404s, JSON fallback works).
