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.

Tree editor island now has 4 tabs: tree, context, validate, render.
The render tab evaluates SX source as live HTML — type a (div (h2 "Hello"))
and see it rendered immediately.
MCP server paths changed from JSON arrays [0,2,1] to SX strings "(0 2 1)".
Fixes serialization issues and is more natural for an SX tool. The
json_to_path function now parses SX via sx-parse.

Phase 4: defisland ~sx-tools/tree-editor — interactive tree viewer
embedded in the SX Tools page. Features:
- Textarea with :bind for SX source input
- Parse button to re-parse on demand
- Tree view: annotated tree with path labels, clickable nodes
- Context view: enclosing chain from root to selected node
- Validate view: structural integrity checks (catches missing body etc.)
MCP server fixes: added ident-start?, ident-char?, make-keyword,
escape-string, sx-expr-source — needed by parser.sx when loaded
into the MCP evaluator.
Also: .mcp.json for Claude Code MCP server config, CLAUDE.md protocol
for structural .sx file editing.

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).
