Replace raw CEK state serialization with named freeze scopes.
A freeze scope collects signals registered within it. On freeze,
signal values are serialized to SX. On thaw, values are restored.
- freeze-scope: scoped effect delimiter for signal collection
- freeze-signal: register a signal with a name in the current scope
- cek-freeze-scope / cek-thaw-scope: freeze/thaw by scope name
- freeze-to-sx / thaw-from-sx: full SX text round-trip
- cek-freeze-all / cek-thaw-all: batch operations
Also: register boolean?, symbol?, keyword? predicates in both
Python and JS platforms with proper var aliases.
Demo: counter + name input with Freeze/Thaw buttons.
Frozen SX: {:name "demo" :signals {:count 5 :name "world"}}

Documents and demonstrates serializable CEK state. Type an expression,
step to any point, click Freeze to see the frozen SX. Click Thaw to
resume from the frozen state and get the result.
- New page at /sx/(geography.(cek.freeze))
- Nav entry under CEK Machine
- Interactive island demo with step/run/freeze/thaw buttons
- Documentation: the idea, freeze format, thaw/resume, what it enables

When a tag's open step is evaluated, both its opening and closing
brackets go big+bold together. Previously close ) had the close
step index so it stayed faint until much later.

Code view uses a lake with imperative DOM spans. Each token has its
base syntax colour class stored. On each step, update-code-highlight
iterates all spans and sets class based on step-idx: evaluated tokens
go bold, current step gets violet bg, future stays normal.
No reactive re-rendering of the code view — direct DOM class updates.

- Each token span independently reacts to step-idx via deref-as-shift
- Colours match highlight.py: sky for HTML tags, rose for components,
emerald for strings, violet for keywords, amber for numbers
- Current step bold+violet bg, completed steps dimmed
- No closing paren on separate line
- Fix bare nil → NIL in eventDetail and domGetData

Cache the style element reference in _cssx-style-el so flush-cssx-to-dom
never creates more than one. Previous code called dom-query on every
flush, which could miss the element during rapid successive calls,
creating duplicates.

Add css_extras parameter to create_base_app. Legacy apps (blog, market
etc) get the default extras (basics.css, cards.css, blog-content.css,
prism.css, FontAwesome). SX app passes css_extras=[] — it uses CSSX
for styling and custom highlighting, not Prism/FA/Ghost.
Reduces <style id="sx-css"> from ~100KB+ of irrelevant CSS to ~5KB
of Tailwind resets + only the utility rules the page actually uses.

A defisland that lets users type an SX expression, step through CEK
evaluation one transition at a time, and see C/E/K registers update
live. Demonstrates that cek-step is pure data->data.
- cek.sx geography: add ~geography/cek/demo-stepper island with
source input, step/run/reset buttons, state display, step history
- platform_js.py: register CEK stepping primitives (make-cek-state,
cek-step, cek-terminal?, cek-value, make-env, sx-serialize) so
island code can access them

Plato's allegory of the cave applied to web development: HTML/CSS/JS as
shadows on the wall, s-expressions as Forms, the bootstrapper as
demiurge, anamnesis as the wire format's efficiency, the divided line
as SX's rendering hierarchy, and the Form of the Good as the principle
that representation and thing represented should be identical.

The depth axis is done — CEK (Layer 0) through patterns (Layer 4) are
all specced, bootstrapped, and tested. Rewrite the plan to reflect
reality and reframe the next steps as validation (serialization,
stepping debugger, content-addressed computation) before building
superstructure (concurrent CEK, linear effects).

init-client.sx contains browser-only code (dom-listen, collect! cssx).
It was in sx/sx/ which load_sx_dir scans and evaluates server-side,
causing "Undefined symbol: dom-listen". Move to sx/init-client.sx
which is outside the component load path.

Styles (indicator, jiggle animation) and nav aria-selected behavior
were inline Python strings in sx/app.py. Now they live in sx/sx/init.sx
as proper SX source — styles via collect! "cssx", nav via dom-listen.
The shell's inline_css is empty; CSSX handles style injection on boot.

All signal operations (computed, effect, batch, etc.) now dispatch
function calls through cek-call, which routes SX lambdas via cek-run
and native callables via apply. This replaces the invoke shim.
Key changes:
- cek.sx: add cek-call (defined before reactive-shift-deref), replace
invoke in subscriber disposal and ReactiveResetFrame handler
- signals.sx: replace all 11 invoke calls with cek-call
- js.sx: fix octal escape in js-quote-string (char-from-code 0)
- platform_js.py: fix JS append to match Python (list concat semantics),
add Continuation type guard in PLATFORM_CEK_JS, add scheduleIdle
safety check, module ordering (cek before signals)
- platform_py.py: fix ident-char regex (remove [ ] from valid chars),
module ordering (cek before signals)
- run_js_sx.py: emit PLATFORM_CEK_JS before transpiled spec files
- page-functions.sx: add cek and provide page functions for SX URLs

Both plans had nav entries and component files but were missing from
the page-functions.sx case statement, causing 404s on their URLs.

Replace hand-written serialize/sx_serialize/sx_parse in Python with
spec-derived versions from parser.sx. Add parser as a Python adapter
alongside html/sx/async — all 48 parser spec tests pass.
Add reactive runtime plan to sx-docs: 7 feature layers (ref, foreign
FFI, state machines, commands with undo/redo, render loops, keyed
lists, client-first app shell) — zero new platform primitives.

test-cek-reactive.sx: 9 tests across 4 suites — deref pass-through,
signal without reactive-reset, reactive-reset shift with continuation
capture, scope disposal cleanup. run_cek_reactive_tests.py: new runner
loading signals+frames+cek. Both test runners override sx_ref.eval_expr
back to tree-walk so interpreted .sx uses tree-walk internally.
Plan page added to sx-docs.

- Add `scope` special form to eval.sx: (scope name body...) or
(scope name :value v body...) — general dynamic scope primitive
- `provide` becomes sugar: (provide name value body...) calls scope
- Rename provide-push!/provide-pop! to scope-push!/scope-pop! throughout
all adapters (async, dom, html, sx) and platform implementations
- Update boundary.sx: Tier 5 now "Scoped effects" with scope-push!/
scope-pop! as primary, provide-push!/provide-pop! as aliases
- Add scope form handling to async adapter and aser wire format
- Update sx-browser.js, sx_ref.py (bootstrapped output)
- Add scopes.sx docs page, update provide/spreads/demo docs
- Update nav-data, page-functions, docs page definitions

Rename to .sx.future — the file uses #z3 reader macros that aren't
implemented yet, causing a ParseError that blocks ALL component loading
and breaks the provide docs page.

Lead with provide/emit! from the first sentence. make-spread/spread?/spread-attrs
are now presented as user-facing API on top of the provide/emit! substrate,
not as independent primitives. Restructured sections, removed redundant
"deeper primitive" content that duplicated the new section I.

- New geography article (provide.sx): four primitives, demos, nested scoping,
adapter comparison, spec explorer links
- Updated spreads article section VI: provide/emit! is now implemented, not planned
- Fixed foundations.sx: ~docs/code-block → ~docs/code (undefined component
was causing the page to silently fail to render)
- Added nav entry and defpage route for provide/emit! article

The plans were routed in page-functions.sx (GraphSX URL eval) but
missing from the defpage case in docs.sx (server-side slug route).

- 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
- Rebootstrap sx_ref.py and sx-browser.js with all fixes
- 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

Component params are bound from kwargs only in render-dom-component.
Positional args go to children, so (~ cssx/tw "...") binds tokens=nil.

layouts.sx: change all (~ cssx/tw :tokens "...") to (~cssx/tw "...")
matching the documented positional calling convention.
Move (~cssx/flush) after children so page content rules are also
collected before the server-side <style data-cssx> flush.

Replace the three-layer cssx system (macro + value functions + class
components) with a single token resolver. Tokens like "bg-yellow-199",
"hover:bg-rose-500", "md:text-xl" are parsed into CSS declarations.
Two delivery mechanisms, same token format:
- tw() function: returns inline style string for :style
- ~cssx/tw macro: injects JIT class + <style> onto first child element
The resolver handles: colours (21 names, any shade 0-950), spacing,
typography, display, max-width, rounded, opacity, w/h, gap, text
decoration, cursor, overflow, transitions. States (hover/focus/active)
and responsive breakpoints (sm/md/lg/xl/2xl) for class-based usage.
Next step: replace macro/function approach with spec-level primitives
(defcontext/provide/context + spread) so ~cssx/tw becomes a proper
component returning spread values, with rules collected via context.

- Fix O(n²) postprocessing: compute_all_deps/io_refs/hash were called
per-file (92x for sx app). Now deferred to single finalize_components()
call after all files load.
- Add pickle cache in shared/sx/.cache/ keyed by file mtimes+sizes.
Cache stores fully-processed Component/Island/Macro objects with deps,
io_refs, and css_classes pre-computed. Closures stripped before pickle,
rebuilt from global env after restore.
- Smart finalization: cached loads skip deps/io_refs recomputation
(already in pickle), only recompute component hash.
- Fix ~sx-header → ~layouts/header ref in docs-content.sx
