Evaluator: data-first higher-order forms — ho-swap-args auto-detects
(map coll fn) vs (map fn coll), both work. Threading + HO: (-> data
(map fn)) dispatches through CEK HO machinery via quoted-value splice.
17 new tests in test-cek-advanced.sx.
Fix plan pages: add mother-language, isolated-evaluator, rust-wasm-host
to page-functions.sx plan() — were in defpage but missing from URL router.
Aser error handling: pages.py now catches EvalError separately, renders
visible error banner instead of silently sending empty content. All
except blocks include traceback in logs.
Scope primitives: register collect!/collected/clear-collected!/emitted/
emit!/context in shared/sx/primitives.py so hand-written _aser can
resolve them (fixes ~cssx/flush expansion failure).
New test file: shared/sx/tests/test_aser_errors.py — 19 pytest tests
for error propagation through all aser control flow forms.

- z3.sx: SX-to-SMT-LIB translator written in SX (359 lines), replaces Python translation logic
- prove.sx: SMT-LIB satisfiability checker in SX — proves all 91 primitives sat by construction
- Parser: support unicode characters (em-dash, accented letters) in symbols
- Auto-resolve reader macros: #name finds name-translate in component env, no Python registration
- Platform primitives: type-of, symbol-name, keyword-name, sx-parse registered in primitives.py
- Cond heuristic: predicates ending in ? recognized as Clojure-style tests
- Library loading: z3.sx loaded at startup with reload callbacks for hot-reload ordering
- reader_z3.py: rewritten as thin shell delegating to z3.sx
- Split monolithic .sx files: essays (22), plans (13), reactive-islands (6) into separate files

Parser: chained .replace() calls processed \n before \\, causing \\n
to become a real newline. Replaced with character-by-character
_unescape_string. Fixes 2 parser spec test failures.
Primitives: prim_get only handled dict and list. Objects with .get()
methods (like PageDef) returned None. Added hasattr fallback.
Fixes 9 defpage spec test failures.
All 259 spec tests now pass (was 244/259).

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.

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.
Removes mock injections from cache tests — they use real primitives.

(index-of s needle from?) returns first index of needle in s, or -1.
Optional start offset. Specced in primitives.sx, implemented in both
hand-written primitives.py and bootstrapper templates, rebootstrapped.

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

app-url, asset-url, config, jinja-global, relations-from are declared
as IO in boundary.sx but called inline in .sx code (inside let/filter).
async_eval_ref.py only intercepts IO at the top level — nested calls
fall through to sx_ref.eval_expr which couldn't find them.
Register sync bridge wrappers directly in _PRIMITIVES (bypassing
@register_primitive validation since they're boundary.sx, not
primitives.sx). Both async and sync eval paths now work.

Add boundary.sx declaring all 34 I/O primitives, 32 page helpers, and 9
allowed boundary types. Runtime validation in boundary.py checks every
registration against the spec — undeclared primitives/helpers crash at
startup with SX_BOUNDARY_STRICT=1 (now set in both dev and prod).
Key changes:
- Move 5 I/O-in-disguise primitives (app-url, asset-url, config,
jinja-global, relations-from) from primitives.py to primitives_io.py
- Remove duplicate url-for/route-prefix from primitives.py (already in IO)
- Fix parse-datetime to return ISO string instead of raw datetime
- Add datetime→isoformat conversion in _convert_result at the edge
- Wrap page helper return values with boundary type validation
- Replace all SxExpr(f"...") patterns with sx_call() or _sx_fragment()
- Add assert declaration to primitives.sx

The JS contains? used `k in c` which throws TypeError on strings.
The Python version silently returned False for strings. Both now
use indexOf/`in` for substring matching on strings.
Fixes: sx.js MOUNT PARSE ERROR on blog index where
(contains? current-local-href "?") was evaluated client-side.

Replace Tailwind class strings with native SX expressions:
(css :flex :gap-4 :hover:bg-sky-200) instead of :class "flex gap-4 ..."
- Add style_dict.py: 516 atoms, variants, breakpoints, keyframes, patterns
- Add style_resolver.py: memoized resolver with variant splitting
- Add StyleValue type to types.py (frozen dataclass with class_name, declarations, etc.)
- Add css and merge-styles primitives to primitives.py
- Add defstyle and defkeyframes special forms to evaluator.py and async_eval.py
- Integrate StyleValue into html.py and async_eval.py render paths
- Add register_generated_rule() to css_registry.py, fix media query selector
- Add style dict JSON delivery with localStorage caching to helpers.py
- Add client-side css primitive, resolver, and style injection to sx.js

The inter-service data layer (fetch_data/call_action) was the least
structured part of the codebase — Python _handlers dicts with ad-hoc
param extraction scattered across 16 route files. This replaces them
with declarative .sx query/action definitions that make the entire
inter-service protocol self-describing and greppable.
Infrastructure:
- defquery/defaction special forms in the sx evaluator
- Query/action registry with load, lookup, and schema introspection
- Query executor using async_eval with I/O primitives
- Blueprint factories (create_data_blueprint/create_action_blueprint)
with sx-first dispatch and Python fallback
- /internal/schema endpoint on every service
- parse-datetime and split-ids primitives for type coercion
Service extractions:
- LikesService (toggle, is_liked, liked_slugs, liked_ids)
- PageConfigService (ensure, get_by_container, get_by_id, get_batch, update)
- RelationsService (wraps module-level functions)
- AccountDataService (user_by_email, newsletters)
- CartItemsService, MarketDataService (raw SQLAlchemy lookups)
50 of 54 handlers converted to sx, 4 Python fallbacks remain
(ghost-sync/push-member, clear-cart-for-order, create-order).
Net: -1,383 lines Python, +251 lines modified.

execute_handler was using async_render() which renders all the way to
HTML. Fragment providers need to return sx source (s-expression strings)
that consuming apps parse and render client-side.
Added async_eval_to_sx() — a new execution mode that evaluates I/O
primitives and control flow but serializes component/tag calls as sx
source instead of rendering them to HTML. This mirrors how the old
Python handlers used sx_call() to build sx strings.
Also fixed: _ASER_FORMS checked after HTML_TAGS, causing "map" (which
is both an HTML tag and an sx special form) to be serialized as a tag
instead of evaluated. Moved _ASER_FORMS check before HTML_TAGS.
Also fixed: empty? primitive now handles non-len()-able types gracefully.
