Named paths let you navigate by structure name instead of opaque indices.
Both formats work in all MCP tools:
- Index: "(0 3 2)"
- Named: "defisland > let > letrec"
The server detects ">" in the path string and calls resolve-named-path
(SX function) which walks the tree matching child names at each level.
New SX functions: resolve-named-path, split-path-string, find-child-by-name.
MCP server: added trim/split primitives, resolve_path dispatcher.

Phase 1-3 of the SX Tools plan — structural reading, editing, and
MCP server for .sx files.
lib/tree-tools.sx — Pure SX functions for tree comprehension and editing:
Comprehension: annotate-tree, summarise, read-subtree, get-context,
find-all, get-siblings, validate, navigate
Editing: replace-node, insert-child, delete-node, wrap-node, tree-set
Helpers: list-replace, list-insert, list-remove, replace-placeholder
lib/tests/test-tree-tools.sx — 107 tests covering all functions.
hosts/ocaml/bin/mcp_tree.ml — MCP server (stdio JSON-RPC) exposing
11 tools. Loads tree-tools.sx into the OCaml evaluator, parses .sx
files with the native parser, calls SX functions for tree operations.
The MCP server can be configured in Claude Code's settings.json as:
"mcpServers": { "sx-tree": { "command": "path/to/mcp_tree.exe" } }
1429 tests passing (1322 existing + 107 new tree-tools).

spec/ now contains only the language definition (5 files):
evaluator.sx, parser.sx, primitives.sx, render.sx, special-forms.sx
lib/ contains code written IN the language (8 files):
stdlib.sx, types.sx, freeze.sx, content.sx,
bytecode.sx, compiler.sx, vm.sx, callcc.sx
Test files follow source: spec/tests/ for core language tests,
lib/tests/ for library tests (continuations, freeze, types, vm).
Updated all consumers:
- JS/Python/OCaml bootstrappers: added lib/ to source search paths
- OCaml bridge: spec_dir for parser/render, lib_dir for compiler/freeze
- JS test runner: scans spec/tests/ (always) + lib/tests/ (--full)
- OCaml test runner: scans spec/tests/, lib tests via explicit request
- Docker dev mounts: added ./lib:/app/lib:ro
Tests: 1041 JS standard, 1322 JS full, 1101 OCaml — all pass
