Two bugs caused code blocks to render empty across the site:
1. ~docs/code component had parameter named `code` which collided with
the HTML <code> tag name. Renamed to `src` and updated all 57
callers. Added font-mono class for explicit monospace.
2. Batched IO dispatch in ocaml_bridge.py only skipped one leading
number (batch ID) but the format has two (epoch + ID):
(io-request EPOCH ID "name" args...). Changed to skip all leading
numbers so the string name is correctly found. This fixes highlight
and other batchable helpers returning empty results.

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.

JSON can't define itself. HTML can carry its spec but not execute it.
SX's spec IS the language — eval.sx is the evaluator, not documentation
about the evaluator. Progressive discovery, components, evaluable URLs,
and AI legibility all flow as consequences of self-definition.

Response to Nick Blow's article on JSON hypermedia and LLM agents.
Argues SX resolves the HTML-vs-JSON debate by being simultaneously
content, control, and code in one homoiconic format.

Component names now reflect filesystem location using / as path separator
and : as namespace separator for shared components:
~sx-header → ~layouts/header
~layout-app-body → ~shared:layout/app-body
~blog-admin-dashboard → ~admin/dashboard
209 files, 4,941 replacements across all services.

All routes moved under /sx/ prefix:
- / redirects to /sx/
- /sx/ serves home page
- /sx/<path:expr> is the catch-all for SX expression URLs
- Bare /(...) and /~... redirect to /sx/(...) and /sx/~...
- All ~600 hrefs, sx-get attrs, defhandler paths, redirect
targets, and blueprint routes updated across 44 files

Extends router.sx with the full SX URL algebra — structural navigation
(.slug, .., ...), keyword set/delta (.:page.4, .:page.+1), bare-dot
shorthand, and ! special form parsing (!source, !inspect, !diff, !search,
!raw, !json). All pure SX spec, bootstrapped to both Python and JS.
Fixes: index-of -1/nil portability (_index-of-safe wrapper), variadic
(+ a b c) transpilation bug (use nested binary +). Includes 115 passing
tests covering all operations. Also: "The" strapline and essay title.

Specs nav reorganized from flat list into 6 sections with children:
Core (5), Adapters (4), Browser (4), Reactive (1), Host Interface (3),
Extensions (4). Added missing spec items: adapter-async, signals,
boundary, forms, page-helpers, types. Architecture page updated to
match. New essay on ars, techne, and the self-making artifact chain.

New hierarchy: Geography (Reactive Islands, Hypermedia Lakes, Marshes,
Isomorphism), Language (Docs, Specs, Bootstrappers, Testing),
Applications (CSSX, Protocols), Etc (Essays, Philosophy, Plans).
All routes updated to match: /reactive/* → /geography/reactive/*,
/docs/* → /language/docs/*, /essays/* → /etc/essays/*, etc.
Updates nav-data.sx, all defpage routes, API endpoints, internal links
across 43 files. Enhanced find-nav-match for nested group resolution.
Also includes: page-helpers-demo sf-total fix (reduce instead of set!),
rebootstrapped sx-browser.js and sx_ref.py, defensive slice/rest guards.

Lake tag (lake :id "name" children...) creates server-morphable slots
within islands. During morph, the engine enters hydrated islands and
updates data-sx-lake elements by ID while preserving surrounding
reactive DOM (signals, effects, event listeners).
Specced in .sx, bootstrapped to JS and Python:
- adapter-dom.sx: render-dom-lake, reactive-attr marks data-sx-reactive-attrs
- adapter-html.sx: render-html-lake SSR output
- adapter-sx.sx: lake serialized in wire format
- engine.sx: morph-island-children (lake-by-ID matching),
sync-attrs skips reactive attributes
- ~sx-header uses lakes for logo and copyright
- Hegelian essay updated with lake code example
Also includes: lambda nil-padding for missing args, page env ordering fix

Islands survive hypermedia swaps: morph-node skips hydrated
data-sx-island elements when the same island exists in new content.
dispose-islands-in skips hydrated islands to prevent premature cleanup.
- @client directive: .sx files marked ;; @client send define forms to browser
- CSSX client-side: cssxgroup renamed (no hyphen) to avoid isRenderExpr
matching it as a custom element — was producing [object HTMLElement]
- Island wrappers: div→span to avoid block-in-inline HTML parse breakage
- ~sx-header is now a defisland with inline reactive colour cycling
- bootstrap_js.py defaults output to shared/static/scripts/sx-browser.js
- Deleted stale sx-ref.js (sx-browser.js is the canonical browser build)
- Hegelian Synthesis essay: dialectic of hypertext and reactivity
- component-source helper handles Island types for docs pretty-printing

- 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
