New hierarchy: Geography (Reactive Islands, Hypermedia Lakes, Marshes,
Isomorphism), Language (Docs, Specs, Bootstrappers, Testing),
Applications (CSSX, Protocols), Etc (Essays, Philosophy, Plans).
All routes updated to match: /reactive/* → /geography/reactive/*,
/docs/* → /language/docs/*, /essays/* → /etc/essays/*, etc.
Updates nav-data.sx, all defpage routes, API endpoints, internal links
across 43 files. Enhanced find-nav-match for nested group resolution.
Also includes: page-helpers-demo sf-total fix (reduce instead of set!),
rebootstrapped sx-browser.js and sx_ref.py, defensive slice/rest guards.

The cond special form misclassified Clojure-style as scheme-style when
the first test was a 2-element list like (nil? x) — treating it as a
scheme clause ((test body)) instead of a function call. Define
cond-scheme? using every? to check ALL clauses, fix eval.sx sf-cond and
render.sx eval-cond, rewrite engine.sx parse-time/filter-params as
nested if to avoid the ambiguity, add regression tests across eval/
render/aser specs. 378/378 tests pass.

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.

Client-rendered islands were re-hydrated by boot.sx because
renderDomIsland didn't mark them as processed. Hydration read
empty data-sx-state, overwriting kwargs (e.g. path) with NIL.
Fix: mark-processed! in adapter-dom.sx so boot skips them.
New plan: marshes — where reactivity and hypermedia interpenetrate.
Three patterns: server writes to signals, reactive marsh zones with
transforms, and signal-bound hypermedia interpretation.

Lake tag (lake :id "name" children...) creates server-morphable slots
within islands. During morph, the engine enters hydrated islands and
updates data-sx-lake elements by ID while preserving surrounding
reactive DOM (signals, effects, event listeners).
Specced in .sx, bootstrapped to JS and Python:
- adapter-dom.sx: render-dom-lake, reactive-attr marks data-sx-reactive-attrs
- adapter-html.sx: render-html-lake SSR output
- adapter-sx.sx: lake serialized in wire format
- engine.sx: morph-island-children (lake-by-ID matching),
sync-attrs skips reactive attributes
- ~sx-header uses lakes for logo and copyright
- Hegelian essay updated with lake code example
Also includes: lambda nil-padding for missing args, page env ordering fix

Islands survive hypermedia swaps: morph-node skips hydrated
data-sx-island elements when the same island exists in new content.
dispose-islands-in skips hydrated islands to prevent premature cleanup.
- @client directive: .sx files marked ;; @client send define forms to browser
- CSSX client-side: cssxgroup renamed (no hyphen) to avoid isRenderExpr
matching it as a custom element — was producing [object HTMLElement]
- Island wrappers: div→span to avoid block-in-inline HTML parse breakage
- ~sx-header is now a defisland with inline reactive colour cycling
- bootstrap_js.py defaults output to shared/static/scripts/sx-browser.js
- Deleted stale sx-ref.js (sx-browser.js is the canonical browser build)
- Hegelian Synthesis essay: dialectic of hypertext and reactivity

- Configurable page shell (~sx-page-shell kwargs + SX_SHELL app config)
so each app controls its own assets — sx docs loads only sx-browser.js
- SX-evaluated sx-on:* handlers (eval-expr instead of new Function)
with DOM primitives registered in PRIMITIVES table
- data-init boot mode for pure SX initialization scripts
- Jiggle animation on links while fetching
- Nav: 3-column grid for centered alignment, is-leaf sizing,
fix map-indexed param order (index, item), guard mod-by-zero

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.

- suspense render-dom form: shows fallback while resource loads, swaps
to body content when resource signal resolves
- resource async signal: wraps promise into signal with loading/data/error
dict, auto-transitions on resolve/reject via promise-then
- transition: defers signal writes to requestIdleCallback, sets pending
signal for UI feedback during expensive operations
- Added schedule-idle, promise-then platform functions
- All Phase 2 features now marked Done in status tables

- portal render-dom form renders children into remote target element
- Portal content auto-removed on island disposal via register-in-scope

- Effect and computed auto-register disposers with island scope via
register-in-scope; dispose-islands-in called before every swap point
(orchestration.sx) to clean up intervals/subscriptions on navigation.
- Map + deref inside islands auto-upgrades to reactive-list for signal-
bound list rendering. Demo island with add/remove items.
- New :bind attribute for two-way signal-input binding (text, checkbox,
radio, textarea, select). bind-input in adapter-dom.sx handles both
signal→element (effect) and element→signal (event listener).
- Phase 2 plan page at /reactive-islands/phase2 covering input binding,
keyed reconciliation, reactive class/style, refs, portals, error
boundaries, suspense, and transitions.
- Updated status tables in overview and plan pages.
- Fixed stopwatch reset (fn body needs do wrapper for multiple exprs).

Three bugs prevented islands from working during SX wire navigation:
1. components_for_request() only bundled Component and Macro defs, not
Island defs — client never received defisland definitions during
navigation (components_for_page for initial HTML shell was correct).
2. hydrate-island used morph-children which can't transfer addEventListener
event handlers from freshly rendered DOM to existing nodes. Changed to
clear+append so reactive DOM with live signal subscriptions is inserted
directly.
3. asyncRenderToDom (client-side async page eval) checked _component but
not _island on ~-prefixed names — islands fell through to generic eval
which failed. Now delegates to renderDomIsland.
4. setInterval_/setTimeout_ passed SX Lambda objects directly to native
timers. JS coerced them to "[object Object]" and tried to eval as code,
causing "missing ] after element list". Added _wrapSxFn to convert SX
lambdas to JS functions before passing to timers.

scope creates reactive-text node instead of static text
- Add Island SSR support in html.py (_render_island with data-sx-island)
- Add Island bundling in jinja_bridge.py (defisland defs sent to client)

defpage is already portable: server executes via execute_page(),
client via try-client-route. Add render plan logging to client
routing so console shows boundary decisions on navigation:
"sx:route plan pagename — N server, M client"
Mark Phase 7 (Full Isomorphism) as complete:
- 7a: affinity annotations + render-target
- 7b: page render plans (boundary optimizer)
- 7e: cross-host isomorphic testing (61 tests)

The entire parallel CSS system (StyleValue type, style dictionary,
keyword atom resolver, content-addressed class generation, runtime
CSS injection, localStorage caching) was built but never adopted —
the codebase already uses :class strings with defcomp components
for all styling. Remove ~3,000 lines of unused infrastructure.
Deleted:
- cssx.sx spec module (317 lines)
- style_dict.py (782 lines) and style_resolver.py (254 lines)
- StyleValue type, defkeyframes special form, build-keyframes platform fn
- Style dict JSON delivery (<script type="text/sx-styles">), cookies, localStorage
- css/merge-styles primitives, inject-style-value, fnv1a-hash platform interface
Simplified:
- defstyle now binds any value (string, function) — no StyleValue type needed
- render-attrs no longer special-cases :style StyleValue → class conversion
- Boot sequence skips style dict init step
Preserved:
- tw.css parsing + CSS class delivery (SX-Css headers, <style id="sx-css">)
- All component infrastructure (defcomp, caching, bundling, deps)
- defstyle as a binding form for reusable class strings

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.

domCreateElement treated SX NIL (a truthy JS object) as a real namespace,
calling createElementNS("nil", tag) instead of createElement(tag). All
elements created by resolveSuspense ended up in the "nil" XML namespace
where CSS class selectors don't match.
Also fix ~suspense fallback: empty &rest list is truthy in SX, so
fallback content never rendered.

parse() returns a list of expressions. resolveSuspense was passing the
entire array to renderToDom, which interpreted [(<> ...)] as a call
expression ((<> ...)) — causing "Not callable: {}". Now iterates
each expression individually, matching the public render() API.

The make-raw-html wrapper in eval-list was host-specific: it fixed
server-side HTML escaping but broke the client DOM adapter (render-expr

host (async_eval_ref.py line 94-101), not the spec.

Streaming resolve scripts arrive after boot, so any extra component
defs sent as <script type="text/sx"> tags weren't being loaded.
Fix in the spec (boot.sx): call (process-sx-scripts nil) at the

available in componentEnv before rendering.

- ~suspense component renders fallback with data-suspense attr
- resolve-suspense in boot.sx (spec) + bootstrapped to sx-browser.js
