bootstrap.py regenerated cek_run as a simple "raise if suspended" without
the _cek_io_resolver and _cek_io_suspend_hook checks. Also lost the
CekPerformRequest catch in cek_step_loop and step_limit checks.
This was the direct cause of "IO suspension in non-IO context" when island
click handlers called perform (via hs-wait). The CEK had no way to propagate
the suspension to the VM/JS boundary.

The callFn suspension returns requests as {op: "io-sleep", args: {items: [100]}}
(dict format) but _driveAsync only handled list format (op-name arg ...).
Result: io-sleep/wait resumes never fired — tests hung after first suspension.

Recompiled WASM kernel (wasm_of_ocaml) to include the VM reuse_stack
fix from sx_vm.ml. Recompiled boot.sxbc with the clear-and-replace
hydration (replaceChildren + nil hydrating scope + dom-append).
sx-platform.js deployed with island preload, isMultiDefine fix, and
K.load error checking.

Replace the monolithic 500KB <script data-components> block with a 25KB
JSON manifest mapping names to content hashes. Every definition —
components, islands, macros, client libraries, bytecode modules, and
WASM binaries — is now content-addressed and loaded on demand.
Server (sx_server.ml):
- build_hash_index: Merkle DAG over all definitions — topological sort,
hash leaves first, component refs become @h:{hash} in instantiated form
- /sx/h/{hash} endpoint: serves definitions with Cache-Control: immutable
- Per-page manifest in <script data-sx-manifest> with defs + modules + boot
- Client library .sx files hashed as whole units (tw.sx, tw-layout.sx, etc.)
- .sxbc modules and WASM kernel hashed individually
Browser (sx-platform.js):
- Content-addressed boot: inline script loads kernel + platform by hash
- loadDefinitionByHash: recursive dep resolution with @h: rewriting
- resolveHash: 3-tier cache (memory → localStorage → fetch /sx/h/{hash})
- __resolve-symbol extended for manifest-based component + library loading
- Cache API wrapper intercepts .wasm fetches for offline caching
- Eager pre-loading of plain symbol deps for CEK evaluator compatibility
Shell template (shell.sx):
- Monolithic <script data-components> removed
- data-sx-manifest script with full hash manifest
- Inline bootstrap replaces <script src="...?v="> with CID-based loading
Second visit loads zero bytes from network. Changed content gets a new
hash — only that item refetched (Merkle propagation).

The previous K.eval() approach double-escaped backslashes in SX source
strings, breaking the \/ → / unescaping that the server serializer adds
for HTML safety. Using K.callFn() passes strings directly as arguments,
bypassing the escaping problem entirely.

stream-colors dict had green/blue keys but data used emerald/violet — all three
slots now render with correct Tailwind color classes. Platform: resolveSuspense
must not exist on Sx until boot completes, otherwise bootstrap __sxResolve calls
it before web stack loads and resolves silently fail. Moved to post-boot setup
so all pre-boot resolves queue in __sxPending and drain correctly.

Reverts the source-loading workaround. Bytecode modules go through the
VM which handles IO suspension (perform/wait/fetch) correctly. The
endModuleLoad sync copies VM globals to CEK env, so eval-expr-cek in
hs-handler can find hs-on/hs-toggle-class!/etc.
All three HS examples fully working on live site:
Toggle Color — toggle classes on click
Bounce — add class, wait 1s (IO suspend+resume), remove class
Count Clicks — increment counter, update innerHTML

- sx-platform.js: add _driveAsync to platform (was sandbox-only) for
driving wait/fetch IO suspension chains in live site
- sx-platform.js: host-callback wrapper calls _driveAsync on callFn result
- sx_browser.ml: value_to_js callable wrapper catches VmSuspended, builds
suspension object, and calls _driveAsync directly
Toggle and count clicks work fully. Bounce adds class but wait/remove
requires IO suspension in CEK context (eval-expr-cek doesn't support
perform — needs VM-path evaluation in hs-handler).

Three bugs fixed:
1. host-get in sx-platform.js: return true for function-valued properties
so dom-get-attr/dom-set-attr guards pass (functions can't cross WASM boundary)
2. hs-runtime.sx: renamed host-get→hs-host-get and dom-query→hs-dom-query to
stop shadowing platform natives when loaded as .sx source
3. compile-modules.js: HS dependency chain (integration→runtime→compiler→parser→tokenizer)
so lazy loading pulls in all deps. Non-library modules load as .sx source
for CEK env visibility.
Result: 8/8 elements activate, hs-on attaches listeners. Click handler needs
IO suspension support (VmSuspended in sx_browser.ml) to fire — next step.

Reset to last known-good state (908f4f80) where links, stepper, and
islands all work, then recovered all hyperscript implementation,
conformance tests, behavioral tests, Playwright specs, site sandbox,

sx_ref.ml guard recovery) that need careful re-integration.

When the VM or CEK hits an undefined symbol, it checks a symbol→library
index (built from manifest exports at boot), loads the library that
exports it, and returns the value. Execution continues as if the module
was always loaded. No import statements, no load-library! calls, no
Suspense boundaries — just call the function.
This is the same mechanism as IO suspension for data fetching. The
programmer doesn't distinguish between calling a local function and
calling one that needs its module fetched first. The runtime treats
code as just another resource.
Implementation:
- _symbol_resolve_hook in sx_types.ml — called by env_get_id (CEK path)
and vm_global_get (VM path) when a symbol isn't found
- Symbol→library index built from manifest exports in sx-platform.js
- __resolve-symbol native calls __sxLoadLibrary, module loads, symbol
appears in globals, execution resumes
- compile-modules.js extracts export lists into module-manifest.json
- Playground page demonstrates: (freeze-scope) triggers freeze.sxbc
download transparently on first use
2650/2650 tests pass.

- load-library! native: islands can declare module dependencies at
hydration time, triggering on-demand .sxbc loading
- JIT compiler lazy-load: compiler.sxbc loads via setTimeout after boot,
eliminating "JIT: compiler not loaded" errors
- _import_hook on sx_types: infrastructure for hosts to resolve import
suspensions inside eval_expr (server wiring deferred to Step 8)
- Playground page (/sx/(tools.(playground))): REPL island that lazy-loads
the compiler module when navigated to — demonstrates the full
lazy loading pipeline
Known remaining issues:
- SPA navigation broken for pages using let-match (orchestration.sx,
router.sx) — bytecode compiler doesn't handle let-match special form
- Server-side "IO suspension in non-IO context" during http_load_files —
needs cek_run import handling (deferred to Step 8)

Bytecode compiler now emits OP_PERFORM for (import ...) and compiles
(define-library ...) bodies. The VM stores the import request in
globals["__io_request"] and stops the run loop — no exceptions needed.
vm-execute-module returns a suspension dict, vm-resume-module continues.
Browser: sx_browser.ml detects suspension dicts from execute_module and
returns JS {suspended, op, request, resume} objects. The sx-platform.js
while loop handles cascading suspensions via handleImportSuspension.
13 modules load via .sxbc bytecode in 226ms (manifest-driven), both
islands hydrate, all handlers wired. 2650/2650 tests pass including
6 new vm-import-suspension tests.
Also: consolidated sx-platform-2.js → sx-platform.js, fixed
vm-execute-module missing code-from-value call, fixed bootstrap.py
protocol registry transpiler issues.

The transpiled VM (sx_vm_ref.ml, from lib/vm.sx) is now the ACTIVE
bytecode execution engine. sx_server.ml and sx_browser.ml call
Sx_vm_ref.execute_module instead of Sx_vm.execute_module.
Results:
- OCaml tests: 2644 passed, 0 failed
- WASM tests: 32 passed, 0 failed
- Browser: zero errors, zero warnings, islands hydrate
- Server: pages render, JIT compiles, all routes work
The VM logic now lives in ONE place: lib/vm.sx (SX).
OCaml gets it via transpilation (bootstrap_vm.py).
JS/browser gets it via bytecode compilation (compile-modules.js).

The change to re-render children when non-empty caused the stepper's
lake to show raw SX again (the ~tw expressions in steps-to-preview
were rendered as text). Reverted to the simpler approach: reuse the
existing SSR element and preserve its content entirely.
The copyright route not updating during SPA nav is a pre-existing
issue (path is an island parameter, not a reactive signal).

JIT compiler:
- Fix jit_compile_lambda: resolve `compile` via symbol lookup in env
instead of embedding VmClosure in AST (CEK dispatches differently)
- Register eval-defcomp/eval-defisland/eval-defmacro runtime helpers
in browser kernel for bytecoded defcomp forms
- Disable broken .sxbc.json path (missing arity in nested code blocks),
use .sxbc text format only
- Mark JIT-failed closures as sentinel to stop retrying
CSSX in browser:
- Add cssx.sx symlink + cssx.sxbc to browser web stack
- Add flush-cssx! to orchestration.sx post-swap for SPA nav
- Add cssx.sx to compile-modules.js and mcp_tree.ml bytecode lists
SPA navigation:
- Fix double-fetch: check e.defaultPrevented in click delegation
(bind-event already handled the click)
- Fix layout destruction: change nav links from outerHTML to innerHTML
swap (outerHTML destroyed #main-panel when response lacked it)
- Guard JS popstate handler when SX engine is booted
- Rename sx-platform.js → sx-platform-2.js to bust immutable cache
Playwright tests:
- Add trackErrors() helper to all test specs
- Add SPA DOM comparison test (SPA nav vs fresh load)
- Add single-fetch + no-duplicate-elements test
- Improve MCP tool output: show failure details and error messages

- AJAX requests (SX-Request: true) now render on main thread instead
of queueing behind slow full-page renders in worker pool

Root cause: _env_bind_hook mirrored ALL env_bind calls (including
lambda parameter bindings) to the shared VM globals table. Factory
functions like make-page-fn that return closures capturing different
values for the same param names (default-name, prefix, suffix) would
have the last call's values overwrite all previous closures' captured
state in globals. OP_GLOBAL_GET reads globals first, so all closures
returned the last factory call's values.
Fix: only sync root-env bindings (parent=None) to VM globals. Lambda
parameter bindings stay in their local env, found via vm_closure_env
fallback in OP_GLOBAL_GET.
Also in this commit:
- OP_CLOSURE propagates parent vm_closure_env to child closures
- Remove JIT globals injection (closure vars found via env chain)
- sx_server.ml: SX-Request header → returns text/sx (aser only)
- sx_server.ml: diagnostic endpoint GET /sx/_debug/{env,eval,route}
- sx_server.ml: page helper stubs for deep page rendering
- sx_server.ml: skip client-libs/ dir (browser-only definitions)
- adapter-html.sx: unknown components → HTML comment (not error)
- sx-platform.js: .sxbc fallback loader for bytecode modules
- Delete sx_http.ml (standalone HTTP server, unused)
- Delete stale .sxbc.json files (arity=0 bug, replaced by .sxbc)
- 7 new closure isolation tests in test-closure-isolation.sx
- mcp_tree.ml: emit arity + upvalue-count in .sxbc.json output

Sx_compiler.compile/compile_module now emit arity (local slot count) in
the bytecode dict. MCP sx_build_bytecode serializes arity into .sxbc.json.
sx-platform.js passes arity through to K.loadModule(). Without this, the
VM allocated only 16 local slots per module frame.

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)

- request-handler.sx: replace all dots (not just `.(`) and auto-quote
undefined symbols as strings so 3-level URLs like
/sx/(geography.(reactive.(examples.counter))) resolve correctly
- sx-platform.js: register popstate handler (was missing from manual
boot sequence) and fetch full HTML for back/forward navigation
- sx_ref.ml: add CEK step limit (10M steps) checked every 4096 steps
so runaway renders return 500 instead of blocking the worker forever
- Rename test-runner.sx → runner-placeholder.sx to avoid `test-` skip
- Playwright config: pin testDir, single worker, ignore worktrees

- def-store/use-store/clear-stores: OCaml primitives with global
mutable registry. Bypasses env scoping issues that prevented SX-level
stores from persisting across bytecode module boundaries.
- client? primitive: _is_client ref (false on server, true in browser).
Registered in primitives table for CALL_PRIM compatibility.
- Event-bridge island: rewritten to use document-level addEventListener
via effect + host-callback, fixing container-ref timing issue.
- Header island: uses def-store for idx/shade signals when client? is
true, plain signals when false (SSR compatibility).
- web-signals.sx: SX store definitions removed, OCaml primitives replace.
Isomorphic nav still fixme — client? works from K.eval but the JIT
"Not callable: nil" bug prevents proper primitive resolution during
render-to-dom hydration. Needs JIT investigation.

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).

The sx-get links were doing full page refreshes because click handlers
never attached. Root causes: VM frame management bug, missing primitives,
CEK/VM type dispatch mismatch, and silent error swallowing.
Fixes:
- VM frame exhaustion: frames <- [] now properly pops to rest_frames
- length primitive: add alias for len in OCaml primitives
- call_sx_fn: use sx_call directly instead of eval_expr (CEK checks
for type "lambda" but VmClosure reports "function")
- Boot error surfacing: Sx.init() now has try/catch + failure summary
- Callback error surfacing: catch-all handler for non-Eval_error exceptions
- Silent JIT failures: log before CEK fallback instead of swallowing
- vm→env sync: loadModule now calls sync_vm_to_env()
- sx_build_bytecode MCP tool added for bytecode compilation
Tests: 50 new tests across test-vm.sx and test-vm-primitives.sx covering
nested VM calls, frame integrity, CEK bridge, primitive availability,
cross-module symbol resolution, and callback dispatch.

- Hydration effect: same rebuild-preview instead of step replay.
- Cookie save moved from do-step to button on-click handlers only.
