- Add \uXXXX unicode escape support to parser.py and parser.sx spec
- Add char-from-code primitive (Python chr(), JS String.fromCharCode())
- Fix variadic infix operators in both bootstrappers (js.sx, py.sx) —
(+ a b c d) was silently dropping terms, now left-folds correctly

- Fix 3 pre-existing map-dict test failures in shared/sx/tests/run.py
- Add live demos alongside examples in spreads essay (side-by-side layout)
- Add scoped-effects plan: algebraic effects as unified foundation for
spread/collect/island/lake/signal/context
- Add foundations plan: CEK machine, the computational floor, three-axis
model (depth/topology/linearity), Curry-Howard correspondence
- Route both plans in page-functions.sx and nav-data.sx

deps.sx: scan island bodies for component deps (was only scanning
"component" and "macro", missing "island" type). This ensures
~cssx/tw and its dependencies are sent to the client for islands.
cssx.sx: move if inside make-spread arg so it's evaluated by
eval-expr (no reactive wrapping) instead of render-to-dom which
applies reactive-if inside island scope, converting the spread
into a fragment and losing the class attrs.
Added island dep tests at 3 levels: test-deps.sx (spec),
test_deps.py (Python), test_parity.py (ref vs fallback).
sx-browser.js: temporary debug logging at spread detection points.

Component names now reflect filesystem location using / as path separator
and : as namespace separator for shared components:
~sx-header → ~layouts/header
~layout-app-body → ~shared:layout/app-body
~blog-admin-dashboard → ~admin/dashboard
209 files, 4,941 replacements across all services.

Extends router.sx with the full SX URL algebra — structural navigation
(.slug, .., ...), keyword set/delta (.:page.4, .:page.+1), bare-dot
shorthand, and ! special form parsing (!source, !inspect, !diff, !search,
!raw, !json). All pure SX spec, bootstrapped to both Python and JS.
Fixes: index-of -1/nil portability (_index-of-safe wrapper), variadic
(+ a b c) transpilation bug (use nested binary +). Includes 115 passing
tests covering all operations. Also: "The" strapline and essay title.

Annotate all primitives in primitives.sx with (:as type) param types
where meaningful (67/80 — 13 polymorphic ops stay untyped). Add
parse_primitive_param_types() to boundary_parser.py for extraction.
Implement check-primitive-call in types.sx with full positional + rest
param validation, thread prim-param-types through check-body-walk,
check-component, and check-all. 10 new tests (438 total, all pass).

Implements subtype checking, type inference, type narrowing, and
component call-site checking. All type logic is in types.sx (spec),
bootstrapped to every host. Adds test-types.sx with full coverage.

Two bugs fixed:
1. process-bindings used merge(env) which returns {} for Env objects
(Env is not a dict subclass). Changed to env-extend in render.sx
and adapter-async.sx. This caused "Undefined symbol: theme" etc.
2. async-aser-eval-call passed evaled-args list to async-invoke(&rest),
double-wrapping it. Changed to inline apply + coroutine check.
Also: bootstrap define-async into sx_ref.py (Phase 6), replace ~1000 LOC
hand-written async_eval_ref.py with 24-line thin re-export shim.
Test runner now uses Env (not flat dict) for render envs to catch scope bugs.
8 new regression tests (4 scope chain, 2 native callable arity, 2 render).

The sync aser-call in adapter-sx.sx didn't flatten list results from
map/filter in positional children — serialize(list) wrapped in parens
creating ((div ...) ...) which re-parses as an invalid call. Rewrote
aser-call from reduce to for-each (bootstrapper can't nest for-each
inside reduce lambdas) and added list flattening in both aser-call
and aser-fragment.
Also adds test-aser.sx (41 tests), render-sx platform function,
expanded test-render.sx (+7 map/filter children tests), and specs
async-eval-slot-inner in adapter-async.sx.

EvalError moved to types.py. All 27 files updated to import eval_expr,
trampoline, call_lambda, etc. directly from shared.sx.ref.sx_ref instead
of through the evaluator.py indirection layer. 320/320 spec tests pass.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- evaluator.py: replace 1200 lines of hand-written eval with thin shim
that re-exports from bootstrapped sx_ref.py
- bootstrap_py.py: emit all fn-bodied defines as `def` (not `lambda`),
flatten tail-position if/cond/case/when to if/elif with returns,
fix &rest handling in _emit_define_as_def
- platform_py.py: EvalError imports from evaluator.py so catches work
- __init__.py: remove SX_USE_REF conditional, always use bootstrapped
- tests/run.py: reset render_active after render tests for isolation
- Removes setrecursionlimit(5000) hack — no longer needed with flat code

- Fix qq-expand in eval.sx: use concat+list instead of append to prevent
nested lists from being flattened during quasiquote expansion
- Update append primitive to match spec ("if x is list, concatenate")
- Rebuild sx_ref.py with quasiquote fix
- Make relations.py self-contained: parse defrelation AST directly
without depending on the evaluator (25/25 tests pass)
- Replace hand-written JSEmitter with js.sx self-hosting bootstrapper
- Guard server-only tests in test-eval.sx with runtime check

- JS platform: add renderActiveP/setRenderActiveB + RENAMES for
render-active?/set-render-active! so eval-list gate works in browser
- Rebuild sx-browser.js from updated spec
- Fix test_rest_params: &rest not supported in bare lambda (spec-correct)

110 pass, 6 known gaps identified (multi-body lambda, &rest in bare lambda,
component body evaluation, void element self-closing style).

Lambda multi-body fix: sf-lambda used (nth args 1), dropping all but the first
body expression. Fixed to collect all body expressions and wrap in (begin ...).
This was foundational — every multi-expression lambda in every island silently
dropped expressions after the first.
Reactive islands: fix dom-parent marker timing (first effect run before marker
is in DOM), fix :key eager evaluation, fix error boundary scope isolation,
fix resource/suspense reactive cond tracking, fix inc not available as JS var.
New essay: "React is Hypermedia" — argues that reactive islands are hypermedia
controls whose behavior is specified in SX, not a departure from hypermedia.

test-signals.sx: 17 tests covering signal basics (create, deref, reset!,
swap!), computed (derive, update, chain), effects (run, re-run, dispose,
cleanup), batch (deferred deduped notifications), and defisland (create,
call, children).
types.py: Island dataclass mirroring Component but for reactive boundaries.
evaluator.py: sf_defisland special form, Island in call dispatch.
run.py: Signal platform primitives (make-signal, tracking context, etc)
and native effect/computed/batch implementations that bridge Lambda
calls across the Python↔SX boundary.
signals.sx: Updated batch to deduplicate subscribers across signals.

61 tests evaluate the same SX expressions on both Python (sx_ref.py)
and JS (sx-browser.js via Node.js), comparing output:
- 37 eval tests (arithmetic, strings, collections, logic, HO forms)
- 24 render tests (elements, attrs, void elements, components, escaping)
All pass — both hosts produce identical results from the same spec.

Add page-render-plan to deps.sx: given page source + env + IO names,
computes a dict mapping each needed component to "server" or "client",
with server/client lists and IO dep collection. 5 new spec tests.
Integration:
- PageDef.render_plan field caches the plan at registration
- compute_page_render_plans() called from auto_mount_pages()
- Client page registry includes :render-plan per page
- Affinity demo page shows per-page render plans
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add :affinity :client/:server/:auto annotations to defcomp, with
render-target function combining affinity + IO analysis. Includes
spec (eval.sx, deps.sx), tests, Python evaluator, and demo page.
Fix critical bug: Python SX parser _ESCAPE_MAP was missing \r and \0,
causing bootstrapped JS parser to treat 'r' as whitespace — breaking
all client-side SX parsing. Also add \0 to JS string emitter and
fix serializer round-tripping for \r and \0.
Reserved word escaping: bootstrappers now auto-append _ to identifiers
colliding with JS/Python reserved words (e.g. default → default_,
final → final_), so the spec never needs to avoid host language keywords.

test.sx now defines deftest/defsuite as macros. Any host that provides
5 platform functions (try-call, report-pass, report-fail, push-suite,
pop-suite) can evaluate the file directly — no bootstrap compilation
step needed for JS.
- Added defmacro for deftest (wraps body in thunk, catches via try-call)
- Added defmacro for defsuite (push/pop suite context stack)
- Created run.js: sx-browser.js evaluates test.sx directly (81/81 pass)
- Created run.py: Python evaluator evaluates test.sx directly (81/81 pass)
- Deleted bootstrap_test_js.py and generated test_sx_spec.js
- Updated testing docs page to reflect self-executing architecture

The test framework is written in SX and tests SX — the language proves
its own correctness. test.sx defines assertion helpers (assert-equal,
assert-true, assert-type, etc.) and 15 test suites covering literals,
arithmetic, comparison, strings, lists, dicts, predicates, special forms,
lambdas, higher-order forms, components, macros, threading, truthiness,
and edge cases.
Two bootstrap compilers emit native tests from the same spec:
- bootstrap_test.py → pytest (81/81 pass)
- bootstrap_test_js.py → Node.js TAP using sx-browser.js (81/81 pass)
Also adds missing primitives to spec and Python evaluator: boolean?,
string-length, substring, string-contains?, upcase, downcase, reverse,
flatten, has-key?. Fixes number? to exclude booleans, append to
concatenate lists.
Includes testing docs page in SX app at /specs/testing.

sx-browser.js grew past OS arg length limit for node -e. Write to
temp file instead. Also fix Sx global scope: Node file mode sets
`this` to module.exports, not globalThis, so the IIFE wrapper needs
.call(globalThis) to make Sx accessible to sx-test.js.
855 passed (2 pre-existing empty .sx file failures).

Previously these mutating operations were internal helpers in the JS
bootstrapper but not declared in primitives.sx or registered in the
Python evaluator. Now properly specced and available in both hosts.

- 10 new tests: cache key generation, set/get, TTL expiry, overwrite,

Tests cover: SX wire format roundtrip for data dicts (11 tests),
kebab-case key conversion (4 tests), component dep computation for
:data pages (2 tests), and full pipeline simulation — serialize on
server, parse on client, merge into env, eval content (3 tests).

The SX parser produces native Python dicts for {:key val} syntax, but
both JSEmitter and PyEmitter had no dict case in emit() — falling through
to str(expr) which output raw AST. This broke client-side routing because
process-page-scripts used {"parsed" (parse-route-pattern ...)} and the
function call was emitted as a JS array of Symbols instead of an actual
function call.
Add _emit_native_dict() to both bootstrappers + 8 unit tests.

deps.sx is now a spec module that both bootstrap_py.py and bootstrap_js.py
can include via --spec-modules deps. Platform functions (component-deps,
component-set-deps!, component-css-classes, env-components, regex-find-all,
scan-css-classes) implemented natively in both Python and JS.
- Fix deps.sx: env-get-or → env-get, extract nested define to top-level
- bootstrap_py.py: SPEC_MODULES, PLATFORM_DEPS_PY, mangle entries, CLI arg
- bootstrap_js.py: SPEC_MODULES, PLATFORM_DEPS_JS, mangle entries, CLI arg
- Regenerate sx_ref.py and sx-ref.js with deps module
- deps.py: thin dispatcher (SX_USE_REF=1 → bootstrapped, else fallback)
- scan_components_from_sx now returns ~prefixed names (consistent with spec)
Verified: 541 Python tests pass, JS deps tested with Node.js, both code
paths (fallback + bootstrapped) produce identical results.

Spec (eval.sx, primitives.sx):
- Named let: (let loop ((i 0)) body) — self-recursive lambda with TCO
- letrec: mutually recursive local bindings with closure patching
- dynamic-wind: entry/exit guards with wind stack for future continuations
- eq?/eqv?/equal?: identity, atom-value, and deep structural equality
Implementation (evaluator.py, async_eval.py, primitives.py):
- Both sync and async evaluators implement all four forms
- 33 new tests covering all forms including TCO at 10k depth

Bootstrap shift/reset to both Python and JS targets. The implementation
uses exception-based capture with re-evaluation: reset wraps in try/catch
for ShiftSignal, shift raises to the nearest reset, and continuation
invocation pushes a resume value and re-evaluates the body.
- Add Continuation type and _ShiftSignal to shared/sx/types.py
- Add sf_reset/sf_shift to hand-written evaluator.py
- Add async versions to async_eval.py
- Add shift/reset dispatch to eval.sx spec
- Bootstrap to Python: FIXUPS_PY with sf_reset/sf_shift, regenerate sx_ref.py
- Bootstrap to JS: Continuation/ShiftSignal types, sfReset/sfShift in fixups
- Add continuation? primitive to both bootstrappers and primitives.sx
- Allow callables (including Continuation) in hand-written HO map
- 44 unit tests (22 per evaluator) covering: passthrough, abort, invoke,
double invoke, predicate, stored continuation, nested reset, practical patterns
- Update continuations essay to reflect implemented status with examples

Implement missing SxEngine features:
- SSE (sx-sse, sx-sse-swap) with EventSource management and auto-cleanup
- Response headers: SX-Trigger, SX-Retarget, SX-Reswap, SX-Redirect,
SX-Refresh, SX-Location, SX-Replace-Url, SX-Trigger-After-Swap/Settle
- View Transitions API: transition:true swap modifier + global config
- every:<time> trigger for polling (setInterval)
- sx-replace-url (replaceState instead of pushState)
- sx-disabled-elt (disable elements during request)
- sx-prompt (window.prompt, value sent as SX-Prompt header)
- sx-params (filter form parameters: *, none, not x,y, x,y)
Adds docs (ATTR_DETAILS, BEHAVIOR_ATTRS, headers, events), demo
components in reference.sx, API endpoints (prompt-echo, sse-time),
and 27 new unit tests for engine logic.

Add shared/sx/html_to_sx.py (HTMLParser-based HTML→sx converter) and
update lexical_to_sx.py so HTML cards, markdown cards, and captions all
produce native sx expressions instead of opaque HTML strings.
- ~kg-html now wraps native sx children (editor can identify the block)
- New ~kg-md component for markdown card blocks
- Captions are sx expressions, not escaped HTML strings
- kg_cards.sx: replace (raw! caption) with direct caption rendering
- sx-editor.js: htmlToSx() via DOMParser, serializeInline for captions,
_childrenSx for ~kg-html/~kg-md, new kg-md edit UI
- Migration script (blog/scripts/migrate_sx_html.py) to re-convert
stored sx_content from lexical source

- Pre-scan component CSS classes at registration time (avoid per-request regex)
- Compress SX-Css header: 8-char hash replaces full class list (LRU cache)
- Add ;@css comment annotation for dynamically constructed class names
- Safelist bg-sky-{100..400} in Tailwind config for menu-row-sx dynamic shades
- Client sends/receives hash, falls back gracefully on cache miss
