Aser serialization: aser-call/fragment now return SxExpr instead of String.
serialize/inspect passes SxExpr through unquoted, preventing the double-
escaping (\" → \\\" ) that broke client-side parsing when aser wire format
was output via raw! into <script> tags. Added make-sx-expr + sx-expr-source
primitives to OCaml and JS hosts.
Binary blob protocol: eval, aser, aser-slot, and sx-page-full now send SX
source as length-prefixed blobs instead of escaped strings. Eliminates pipe
desync from concurrent requests and removes all string-escape round-trips
between Python and OCaml.
Bridge safety: re-entrancy guard (_in_io_handler) raises immediately if an
IO handler tries to call the bridge, preventing silent deadlocks.
Fetch error logging: orchestration.sx error callback now logs method + URL
via log-warn. Platform catches (fetchAndRestore, fetchPreload, bindBoostForm)
also log errors instead of silently swallowing them.
Transpiler fixes: makeEnv, scopePeek, scopeEmit, makeSxExpr added as
platform function definitions + transpiler mappings — were referenced in
transpiled code but never defined as JS functions.
Playwright test infrastructure:
- nav() captures JS errors and fails fast with the actual error message
- Checks for [object Object] rendering artifacts
- New tests: delete-row interaction, full page refresh, back button,
direct load with fresh context, code block content verification
- Default base URL changed to localhost:8013 (standalone dev server)
- docker-compose.dev-sx.yml: port 8013 exposed for local testing
- test-sx-build.sh: build + unit tests + Playwright smoke tests
Geography content: index page component written (sx/sx/geography/index.sx)
describing OCaml evaluator, wire formats, rendering pipeline, and topic
links. Wiring blocked by aser-expand-component children passing issue.
Tests: 1080/1080 JS, 952/952 OCaml, 66/66 Playwright

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.

Two fundamental environment bugs fixed:
1. env-set! was used for both binding creation (let, define, params)
and mutation (set!). Binding creation must NOT walk the scope chain
— it should set on the immediate env. Only set! should walk.
Fix: introduce env-bind! for all binding creation. env-set! now
exclusively means "mutate existing binding, walk scope chain".
Changed across spec (eval.sx, cek.sx, render.sx) and all web
adapters (dom, html, sx, async, boot, orchestration, forms).
2. makeLambda/makeComponent/makeMacro/makeIsland used merge(env) to
flatten the closure into a plain object, destroying the prototype
chain. This meant set! inside closures couldn't reach the original
binding — it modified a snapshot copy instead.
Fix: store env directly as closure (no merge). The prototype chain
is preserved, so set! walks up to the original scope.
Tests: 499/516 passing (96.7%), up from 485/516.
Fixed: define self-reference, let scope isolation, set! through
closures, counter-via-closure pattern, recursive functions.
