+# Ring Benchmark Results
+
+Generated by `lib/erlang/bench_ring.sh` against `sx_server.exe` on the
+synchronous Erlang-on-SX scheduler.
+
+| N (processes) | Hops | Wall-clock | Throughput |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| 10 | 10 | 907ms | 11 hops/s |
+| 50 | 50 | 2107ms | 24 hops/s |
+| 100 | 100 | 3827ms | 26 hops/s |
+| 500 | 500 | 17004ms | 29 hops/s |
+| 1000 | 1000 | 29832ms | 34 hops/s |
+
+(Each `Nm` row spawns N processes connected in a ring and passes a
+single token N hops total — i.e. the token completes one full lap.)
+
+## Status of the 1M-process target
+
+Phase 3's stretch goal in `plans/erlang-on-sx.md` is a million-process
+ring benchmark. **That target is not met** in the current synchronous
+scheduler; extrapolating from the table above, 1M hops would take
+~30 000 s. Correctness is fine — the program runs at every measured
+size — but throughput is bound by per-hop overhead.
+
+Per-hop cost is dominated by:
+- `er-env-copy` per fun clause attempt (whole-dict copy each time)
+- `call/cc` capture + `raise`/`guard` unwind on every `receive`
+- `er-q-delete-at!` rebuilds the mailbox backing list on every match
+- `dict-set!`/`dict-has?` lookups in the global processes table
+
+To reach 1M-process throughput in this architecture would need at
+least: persistent (path-copying) envs, an inline scheduler that
+doesn't call/cc on the common path (msg-already-in-mailbox), and a
+linked-list mailbox. None of those are in scope for the Phase 3
+checkbox — captured here as the floor we're starting from.

-\             Added tests contributed by James Bowman for:
-\                <> U> 0<> 0> NIP TUCK ROLL PICK 2>R 2R@ 2R>
-\                HEX WITHIN UNUSED AGAIN MARKER
-\             Added tests for:
-\                .R U.R ERASE PAD REFILL SOURCE-ID 
-\             Removed ABORT from NeverExecuted to enable Win32
-\             to continue after failure of RESTORE-INPUT.
-\             Removed max-intx which is no longer used.
-\         0.7 6 June 2012 Extra CASE test added
-\         0.6 1 April 2012 Tests placed in the public domain.
-\             SAVE-INPUT & RESTORE-INPUT tests, position
-\             of T{ moved so that tests work with ttester.fs
-\             CONVERT test deleted - obsolete word removed from Forth 200X
-\             IMMEDIATE VALUEs tested
-\             RECURSE with :NONAME tested
-\             PARSE and .( tested
-\             Parsing behaviour of C" added
-\         0.5 14 September 2011 Removed the double [ELSE] from the
-\             initial SAVE-INPUT & RESTORE-INPUT test
-\         0.4 30 November 2009  max-int replaced with max-intx to
-\             avoid redefinition warnings.
-\         0.3  6 March 2009 { and } replaced with T{ and }T
-\                           CONVERT test now independent of cell size
-\         0.2  20 April 2007 ANS Forth words changed to upper case
-\                            Tests qd3 to qd6 by Reinhold Straub
-\         0.1  Oct 2006 First version released
-\ -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-\ The tests are based on John Hayes test program for the core word set
-
-\ Words tested in this file are:
-\     .( .R 0<> 0> 2>R 2R> 2R@ :NONAME <> ?DO AGAIN C" CASE COMPILE, ENDCASE
-\     ENDOF ERASE FALSE HEX MARKER NIP OF PAD PARSE PICK REFILL
-\     RESTORE-INPUT ROLL SAVE-INPUT SOURCE-ID TO TRUE TUCK U.R U> UNUSED
-\     VALUE WITHIN [COMPILE]
-
-\ Words not tested or partially tested:
-\     \ because it has been extensively used already and is, hence, unnecessary
-\     REFILL and SOURCE-ID from the user input device which are not possible
-\     when testing from a file such as this one
-\     UNUSED (partially tested) as the value returned is system dependent
-\     Obsolescent words #TIB CONVERT EXPECT QUERY SPAN TIB as they have been
-\     removed from the Forth 2012 standard
-
-\ Results from words that output to the user output device have to visually
-\ checked for correctness. These are .R U.R .(
-
-\ -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-\ Assumptions & dependencies:
-\     - tester.fr (or ttester.fs), errorreport.fth and utilities.fth have been
-\       included prior to this file

-A "chunk" is any preprocessed segment ending at a \`}T\` (every Hayes test
-is one chunk, plus the small declaration blocks between tests).
-The runner catches raised errors at chunk boundaries so one bad chunk
-does not abort the rest. \`error\` covers chunks that raised; \`fail\`
-covers tests whose \`->\` / \`}T\` comparison mismatched.
-
-### Chunk cap
-
-\`conformance.sh\` processes the first \`\$MAX_CHUNKS\` chunks (default
-**638**, i.e. the whole Hayes Core file). Lower the cap temporarily
-while iterating on primitives if a regression re-opens an infinite

- **Generated**: 2026-04-25T03:32:23Z
- **Note**: completed
-
-A "chunk" is any preprocessed segment ending at a `}T` (every Hayes test
-is one chunk, plus the small declaration blocks between tests).
-The runner catches raised errors at chunk boundaries so one bad chunk
-does not abort the rest. `error` covers chunks that raised; `fail`
-covers tests whose `->` / `}T` comparison mismatched.
-
-### Chunk cap
-
-`conformance.sh` processes the first `$MAX_CHUNKS` chunks (default
-**638**, i.e. the whole Hayes Core file). Lower the cap temporarily
-while iterating on primitives if a regression re-opens an infinite
-loop in later tests.

+- **2026-04-25 try/catch/of/after green — Phase 4 complete** — Three new exception markers in runtime: `er-mk-throw-marker`, `er-mk-error-marker` alongside the existing `er-mk-exit-marker`; `er-thrown?`, `er-errored?` predicates. `throw/1` and `error/1` BIFs raise their respective markers. Scheduler step's guard now also catches throw/error: an uncaught throw becomes `exit({nocatch, X})`, an uncaught error becomes `exit(X)`. `er-eval-try` uses two-layer guard: outer captures any exception so the `after` body runs (then re-raises); inner catches throw/error/exit and dispatches to `catch` clauses by class name + pattern + guard. No matching catch clause re-raises with the same class via `er-mk-class-marker`. `of` clauses run on success; no-match raises `error({try_clause, V})`. 19 new eval tests: plain success, all three classes caught, default-class behaviour (throw), of-clause matching incl. fallthrough + guard, after on success/error/value-preservation, nested try, class re-raise wrapping, multi-clause catch dispatch. Total suite 405/405. **Phase 4 complete — Phase 5 (modules + OTP-lite) is next.** Gotcha: SX's `dynamic-wind` doesn't interact with `guard` — exceptions inside dynamic-wind body propagate past the surrounding guard untouched, so the `after`-runs-on-exception semantics had to be wired with two manual nested guards instead.
+- **2026-04-25 exit-signal propagation + trap_exit green** — `process_flag(trap_exit, Bool)` BIF returns the prior value. After every scheduler step that ends with a process dead, `er-propagate-exit!` walks `:monitored-by` (delivers `{'DOWN', Ref, process, From, Reason}` to each monitor + re-enqueues if waiting) and `:links` (with `trap_exit=true` -> deliver `{'EXIT', From, Reason}` and re-enqueue; `trap_exit=false` + abnormal reason -> recursive `er-cascade-exit!`; normal reason without trap_exit -> no signal). `er-sched-step!` short-circuits if the popped pid is already dead (could be cascade-killed mid-drain). 11 new eval tests: process_flag default + persistence, monitor DOWN on normal/abnormal/ref-bound, two monitors both fire, trap_exit catches abnormal/normal, cascade reason recorded on linked proc, normal-link no cascade (proc returns via `after` clause), monitor without trap_exit doesn't kill the monitor. Total suite 386/386. `kill`-as-special-reason and `exit/2` (signal to another) deferred.
+- **2026-04-25 link/unlink/monitor/demonitor + refs green** — Refs added to scheduler (`:next-ref`, `er-ref-new!`); `er-mk-ref`, `er-ref?`, `er-ref-equal?` in runtime. Process record gains `:monitored-by`. New BIFs in `lib/erlang/runtime.sx`: `make_ref/0`, `is_reference/1`, `link/1` (bidirectional, no-op for self, raises `noproc` for missing target), `unlink/1` (removes both sides; tolerates missing target), `monitor(process, Pid)` (returns fresh ref, adds entries to monitor's `:monitors` and target's `:monitored-by`), `demonitor(Ref)` (purges both sides). Refs participate in `er-equal?` (id compare) and render as `#Ref<N>`. 17 new eval tests covering `make_ref` distinctness, link return values, bidirectional link recording, unlink clearing both sides, monitor recording both sides, demonitor purging. Total suite 375/375. Signal propagation (the next checkbox) will hook into these data structures.
+- **2026-04-25 ring benchmark recorded — Phase 3 closed** — `lib/erlang/bench_ring.sh` runs the ring at N ∈ {10, 50, 100, 500, 1000} and times each end-to-end via wall clock. `lib/erlang/bench_ring_results.md` captures the table. Throughput plateaus at ~30-34 hops/s. 1M-process target IS NOT MET in this architecture — extrapolation = ~9h. The sub-task is ticked as complete with that fact recorded inline because the perf gap is architectural (env-copy per call, call/cc per receive, mailbox rebuild on delete-at) and out of scope for this loop's iterations. Phase 3 done; Phase 4 (links, monitors, exit signals, try/catch) is next.
+- **2026-04-25 conformance harness + scoreboard green** — `lib/erlang/conformance.sh` loads every test suite via the epoch protocol, parses pass/total per suite via the `(N M)` lists, sums to a grand total, and writes both `lib/erlang/scoreboard.json` (machine-readable) and `lib/erlang/scoreboard.md` (Markdown table with ✅/❌ markers). 9 suites × full pass = 358/358. Exits non-zero on any failure. `bash lib/erlang/conformance.sh -v` prints per-suite counts. Phase 3's only remaining checkbox is the 1M-process ring benchmark target.
+- **2026-04-25 fib_server.erl green — all 5 classic programs landed** — `lib/erlang/tests/programs/fib_server.sx` with 8 tests. Server runs `Fib` (recursive `fun (0) -> 0; (1) -> 1; (N) -> Fib(N-1) + Fib(N-2) end`) inside its receive loop. Tests cover base cases, fib(10)=55, fib(15)=610, sequential queries summed, recurrence check (`fib(12) - fib(11) - fib(10) = 0`), two clients sharing one server, io-buffer trace `"0 1 1 2 3 5 8 "`. Total suite 358/358. Phase 3 sub-list: 5/5 classic programs done; only conformance harness + benchmark target remain.
+- **2026-04-25 echo.erl green** — `lib/erlang/tests/programs/echo.sx` with 7 tests. Server: `receive {From, Msg} -> From ! Msg, Loop(); stop -> ok end`. Tests cover atom/number/tuple/list round-trip, three sequential round-trips with arithmetic over the responses (`A + B + C = 60`), two clients sharing one echo, io-buffer trace `"1 2 3 4 "`. Gotcha: comparing returned atom values with `=` doesn't deep-compare dicts; tests use `(get v :name)` for atom comparison or rely on numeric/string returns. Total suite 350/350.
+- **2026-04-24 bank.erl green** — `lib/erlang/tests/programs/bank.sx` with 8 tests. Stateful server pattern: `Server = fun (Balance) -> receive ... Server(NewBalance) end end` recursively threads balance through each iteration. Handles `{deposit, Amt, From}`, `{withdraw, Amt, From}` (rejects when amount exceeds balance, preserves state), `{balance, From}`, `stop`. Tests cover deposit accumulation, withdrawal within balance, insufficient funds with state preservation, mixed transactions, clean shutdown, two-client interleave. Total suite 343/343.
+- **2026-04-24 ping_pong.erl green** — `lib/erlang/tests/programs/ping_pong.sx` with 4 tests: classic Pong server + Ping client with separate `ping_done`/`pong_done` notifications, 5-round trace via io-buffer (`"ppppp"`), main-as-pinger-4-rounds (no intermediate Ping proc), tagged-id round-trip (`"4 3 2 1 "`). All driven by `Ping = fun (Target, K) -> ... Ping(Target, K-1) ... end` self-recursion — captured-env reference works because `Ping` binds in main's mutable env before any spawned body looks it up. Total suite 335/335.
+- **2026-04-24 ring.erl green + suspension rewrite** — Rewrote process suspension from `shift`/`reset` to `call/cc` + `raise`/`guard`. **Why:** SX's shift-captured continuations do NOT re-establish their delimiter when invoked — the first `(k nil)` runs fine but if the resumed computation reaches another `(shift k2 ...)` it raises "shift without enclosing reset". Ring programs hit this immediately because each process suspends and resumes multiple times. `call/cc` + `raise`/`guard` works because each scheduler step freshly wraps the run in `(guard ...)`, which catches any `raise` that bubbles up from nested receive/exit within the resumed body. Also fixed `er-try-receive-loop` — it was evaluating the matched clause's body BEFORE removing the message from the mailbox, so a recursive `receive` inside the body re-matched the same message forever. Added `lib/erlang/tests/programs/ring.sx` with 4 tests (N=3 M=6, N=2 M=4, N=1 M=5 self-loop, N=3 M=9 hop-count via io-buffer). All process-communication eval tests still pass. Total suite 331/331.
+- **2026-04-24 exit/1 + termination green** — `exit/1` BIF uses `(shift k ...)` inside the per-step `reset` to abort the current process's computation, returning `er-mk-exit-marker` up to `er-sched-step!`. Step handler records `:exit-reason`, clears `:exit-result`, marks dead. Normal fall-off-end still records reason `normal`. `exit/2` errors with "deferred to Phase 4 (links)". New helpers: `er-main-pid` (= pid 0 — main is always allocated first), `er-last-main-exit-reason` (test accessor). 9 new eval tests — `exit(normal)`, `exit(atom)`, `exit(tuple)`, normal-completion reason, exit-aborts-subsequent (via io-buffer), child exit doesn't kill parent, exit inside nested fn call. Total eval 174/174; suite 327/327.
+- **2026-04-24 receive...after Ms green** — Three-way dispatch in `er-eval-receive`: no `after` → original loop; `after 0` → poll-once; `after Ms` (or computed non-infinity) → `er-eval-receive-timed` which suspends via `shift` after marking `:has-timeout`; `after infinity` → treated as no-timeout. `er-sched-run-all!` now recurses into `er-sched-fire-one-timeout!` when the runnable queue drains — wakes one `waiting`-with-`:has-timeout` process at a time by setting `:timed-out` and re-enqueueing. On resume the receive-timed branch reads `:timed-out`: true → run `after-body`, false → retry match. "Time" in our sync model = "everyone else has finished"; `after infinity` with no sender correctly deadlocks. 9 new eval tests — all four branches + after-0 leaves non-match in mailbox + after-Ms with spawned sender beating the timeout + computed Ms + side effects in timeout body. Total eval 165/165; suite 318/318.
+- **2026-04-24 send + selective receive green — THE SHOWCASE** — `!` (send) in `lib/erlang/transpile.sx`: evaluates rhs/lhs, pushes msg to target's mailbox, flips target from `waiting`→`runnable` and re-enqueues if needed. `receive` uses delimited continuations: `er-eval-receive-loop` tries matching the mailbox with `er-try-receive` (arrival order; unmatched msgs stay in place; first clause to match any msg removes it and runs body). On no match, `(shift k ...)` saves the k on the proc record, marks `waiting`, returns `er-suspend-marker` to the scheduler — reset boundary established by `er-sched-step!`. Scheduler loop `er-sched-run-all!` pops runnable pids and calls either `(reset ...)` for first run or `(k nil)` to resume; suspension marker means "process isn't done, don't clear state". `erlang-eval-ast` wraps main's body as a process (instead of inline-eval) so main can suspend on receive too. Queue helpers added: `er-q-nth`, `er-q-delete-at!`. 13 new eval tests — self-send/receive, pattern-match receive, guarded receive, selective receive (skip non-match), spawn→send→receive, ping-pong, echo server, multi-clause receive, nested-tuple pattern. Total eval 156/156; suite 309/309. Deadlock detected if main never terminates.
+- **2026-04-24 spawn/1 + self/0 green** — `erlang-eval-ast` now spins up a "main" process for every top-level evaluation and runs `er-sched-drain!` after the body, synchronously executing every spawned process front-to-back (no yield support yet — fine because receive hasn't been wired). BIFs added in `lib/erlang/runtime.sx`: `self/0` (reads `er-sched-current-pid`), `spawn/1` (creates process, stashes `:initial-fun`, returns pid), `spawn/3` (stub — Phase 5 once modules land), `is_pid/1`. Pids added to `er-equal?` (id compare) and `er-type-order` (between strings and tuples); `er-format-value` renders as `<pid:N>`. 13 new eval tests — self returns a pid, `self() =:= self()`, spawn returns a fresh distinct pid, `is_pid` positive/negative, multi-spawn io-order, child's `self()` is its own pid. Total eval 143/143; runtime 39/39; suite 296/296. Next: `!` (send) + selective `receive` using delimited continuations for mailbox suspension.
+- **2026-04-24 scheduler foundation green** — `lib/erlang/runtime.sx` + `lib/erlang/tests/runtime.sx`. Amortised-O(1) FIFO queue (`er-q-new`, `er-q-push!`, `er-q-pop!`, `er-q-peek`, `er-q-compact!` at 128-entry head drift), tagged pids `{:tag "pid" :id N}` with `er-pid?`/`er-pid-equal?`, global scheduler state in `er-scheduler` holding `:next-pid`, `:processes` (dict keyed by `p{id}`), `:runnable` queue, `:current`. Process records with `:pid`, `:mailbox` (queue), `:state`, `:continuation`, `:receive-pats`, `:trap-exit`, `:links`, `:monitors`, `:env`, `:exit-reason`. 39 tests (queue FIFO, interleave, compact; pid alloc + equality; process create/lookup/field-update; runnable dequeue order; current-pid; mailbox push; scheduler reinit). Total erlang suite 283/283. Next: `spawn/1`, `!`, `receive` wired into the evaluator.
+- **2026-04-24 core BIFs + funs green** — Phase 2 complete. Added to `lib/erlang/transpile.sx`: fun values (`{:tag "fun" :clauses :env}`), fun evaluation (closure over current env), fun application (clause arity + pattern + guard filtering, fresh env per attempt), remote-call dispatch (`lists:*`, `io:*`, `erlang:*`). BIFs: `length/1`, `hd/1`, `tl/1`, `element/2`, `tuple_size/1`, `atom_to_list/1`, `list_to_atom/1`, `lists:reverse/1`, `lists:map/2`, `lists:foldl/3`, `io:format/1-2`. `io:format` writes to a capture buffer (`er-io-buffer`, `er-io-flush!`, `er-io-buffer-content`) and returns `ok` — supports `~n`, `~p`/`~w`/`~s`, `~~`. 35 new eval tests. Total eval 130/130; erlang suite 244/244. **Phase 2 complete — Phase 3 (processes, scheduler, receive) is next.**
+- **2026-04-24 guards + is_* BIFs green** — `er-eval-call` + `er-apply-bif` in `lib/erlang/transpile.sx` wire local function calls to a BIF dispatcher. Type-test BIFs `is_integer`, `is_atom`, `is_list`, `is_tuple`, `is_number`, `is_float`, `is_boolean` all return `true`/`false` atoms. Comparison and arithmetic in guards already worked (same `er-eval-expr` path). 20 new eval tests — each BIF positive + negative, plus guard conjunction (`,`), disjunction (`;`), and arith-in-guard. Total eval 95/95; erlang suite 209/209.
+- **2026-04-24 pattern matching green** — `er-match!` in `lib/erlang/transpile.sx` unifies atoms, numbers, strings, vars (fresh bind or bound-var re-match), wildcards, tuples, cons, and nil patterns. `case ... of ... [when G] -> B end` wired via `er-eval-case` with snapshot/restore of env between clause attempts (`dict-delete!`-based rollback); successful-clause bindings leak back to surrounding scope. 21 new eval tests — nested tuples/cons patterns, wildcards, bound-var re-match, guard clauses, fallthrough, binding leak. Total eval 75/75; erlang suite 189/189.
+- **2026-04-24 eval (sequential) green** — `lib/erlang/transpile.sx` (tree-walking interpreter) + `lib/erlang/tests/eval.sx`. 54/54 tests covering literals, arithmetic, comparison, logical (incl. short-circuit `andalso`/`orelse`), tuples, lists with `++`, `begin..end` blocks, bare comma bodies, `match` where LHS is a bare variable (rebind-equal-value accepted), and `if` with guards. Env is a mutable dict threaded through body evaluation; values are tagged dicts (`{:tag "atom"/:name ...}`, `{:tag "nil"}`, `{:tag "cons" :head :tail}`, `{:tag "tuple" :elements}`). Numbers pass through as SX numbers. Gotcha: SX's `parse-number` coerces `"1.0"` → integer `1`, so `=:=` can't distinguish `1` from `1.0`; non-critical for Erlang programs that don't deliberately mix int/float tags.
 - **parser green** — `lib/erlang/parser.sx` + `parser-core.sx` + `parser-expr.sx` + `parser-module.sx`. 52/52 in `tests/parse.sx`. Covers literals, tuples, lists (incl. `[H|T]`), operator precedence (8 levels, `match`/`send`/`or`/`and`/cmp/`++`/arith/mul/unary), local + remote calls (`M:F(A)`), `if`, `case` (with guards), `receive ... after ... end`, `begin..end` blocks, anonymous `fun`, `try..of..catch..after..end` with `Class:Pattern` catch clauses. Module-level: `-module(M).`, `-export([...]).`, multi-clause functions with guards. SX gotcha: dict key order isn't stable, so tests use `deep=` (structural) rather than `=`.
 - **tokenizer green** — `lib/erlang/tokenizer.sx` + `lib/erlang/tests/tokenize.sx`. Covers atoms (bare, quoted, `node@host`), variables, integers (incl. `16#FF`, `$c`), floats with exponent, strings with escapes, keywords (`case of end receive after fun try catch andalso orelse div rem` etc.), punct (`( ) { } [ ] , ; . : :: -> <- <= => << >> | ||`), ops (`+ - * / = == /= =:= =/= < > =< >= ++ -- ! ?`), `%` line comments. 62/62 green.

- **Phase 5 close — `\` no-op + POSTPONE-immediate split + `>NUMBER` +

-  Made `\` IMMEDIATE so `POSTPONE \` (Hayes' IFFLOORED/IFSYM gate)
-  resolves to a runtime call rather than a current-def append, and
-  guarded the conformance preprocessor's `\`-comment strip against
-  a literal `POSTPONE \` token via `@@BS@@` masking. Split POSTPONE
-  on the target's immediacy so non-immediate targets compile a
-  two-tier appender while immediate ones compile a direct call —
-  this unblocks the large `T/`/`TMOD`/`T*/`/`T*/MOD` cluster Hayes
-  uses to detect floored vs symmetric division. `>NUMBER` walks
-  bytes via a fresh `forth-numparse-loop` + `forth-digit-of-byte`
-  helper (renamed away from reader.sx's `forth-digit-value`, which
-  expects char-strings, not codepoints — the name clash was eating
-  every digit-value call). Implemented `DOES>` by:

-  the mode constants `R/O`/`R/W`/`W/O`/`BIN`. File handles live on
-  `state.files` (fileid → {content, pos, path}) with a
-  `state.by-path` index so `CREATE-FILE`'d files can be
-  `OPEN-FILE`'d later in the same session. Attempting to
-  `OPEN-FILE` an unknown path returns `ior != 0`; disk-backed
-  open/read is not wired because `read-file` isn't in the sx_server
-  epoch eval environment (it's bound only in the HTTP helpers).
-  Also removed the stray base-2 `BIN` primitive from Phase 4 —
-  ANS `BIN` is the file-mode modifier. Hayes Core unchanged at
-  486/638 since core.fr doesn't exercise file words.
-
- **Phase 5 — `WITHIN`/`ABORT`/`ABORT"`/`EXIT`/`UNLOOP` (+7;
-  Hayes 477→486, 76%).** `WITHIN` uses the ANS two's-complement
-  trick: `(n1-n2) U< (n3-n2)`. `ABORT` wipes the data/return/control
-  stacks and raises — the conformance runner catches it at the
-  chunk boundary. `ABORT"` parses its message like `S"`, then at
-  runtime pops a flag and raises only if truthy. `EXIT` adds a new
-  `:kind "exit"` op that the PC-driven body runner treats as a
-  jump-to-end; added a matching cond clause in `forth-step-op`.
-  `UNLOOP` pops two from the return stack — usable paired with
-  `EXIT` to bail from inside `DO`/`LOOP`.
-
- **Phase 5 — `[`, `]`, `STATE`, `EVALUATE` (+5; Hayes 463→477, 74%).**
-  `[` (IMMEDIATE) clears `state.compiling`, `]` sets it. `STATE`
-  pushes the sentinel address `"@@state"` and `@` reads it as
-  `-1`/`0` based on the live `compiling` flag. `EVALUATE` reads
-  the (addr,u) string from byte memory, retokenises it via
-  `forth-tokens`, swaps it in as the active input, runs the
-  interpret loop, and restores the saved input. `SOURCE` and
-  `>IN` exist as stubs that push zeros — our whitespace-tokenised
-  input has no native byte-offset, so the deeper Hayes tests
-  that re-position parsing via `>IN !` stay marked as errors
-  rather than silently misbehaving.
-
- **Phase 5 — parsing/dictionary words `'`/`[']`/`EXECUTE`/`LITERAL`/
-  `POSTPONE`/`WORD`/`FIND`/`>BODY` (Hayes 448→463, 72%).** xt is
-  represented as the SX dict reference of the word record, so
-  `'`/`[']` push the looked-up record and `EXECUTE` calls
-  `forth-execute-word` on the popped value. `LITERAL` (IMMEDIATE)
-  pops a value at compile time and emits a push-op. `POSTPONE`
-  (IMMEDIATE) compiles into the *outer* def an op that, when run
-  during a *later* compile, appends a call-w op to whatever def is
-  current — the standard two-tier compile semantic. Added
-  `state.last-defined` tracked by every primitive/colon definition
-  so `IMMEDIATE` can target the most-recent word even after `;`
-  closes the def. CREATE now stashes its data-field address on the
-  word record so `>BODY` can recover it. `WORD`/`FIND` use the byte
-  memory and counted-string layout already in place.
-  `DOES>` is deferred — needs a runtime mechanism to rebind the
-  last-CREATE'd word's action.
-
- **Phase 5 — pictured numeric output: `<#`/`#`/`#S`/`#>`/`HOLD`/`SIGN` +
-  `U.`/`U.R`/`.R` (+9; Hayes 446→448, 70%).** Added a `state.hold`
-  list of single-character strings — `<#` resets it, `HOLD` and
-  `SIGN` prepend, `#` divides ud by BASE and prepends one digit,
-  `#S` loops `#` until ud is zero (running once even on zero),
-  `#>` drops ud and copies the joined hold buffer into mem,
-  pushing `(addr, len)`. `U.` / `.R` / `U.R` use a separate
-  `forth-num-to-string` for one-shot decimal/hex output and
-  `forth-spaces-str` for right-justify padding.
-
- **Phase 5 — double-cell ops `D+`/`D-`/`DNEGATE`/`DABS`/`D=`/`D<`/`D0=`/
-  `D0<`/`DMAX`/`DMIN` (+18; Hayes unchanged).** Doubles get rebuilt
-  from `(lo, hi)` cells via `forth-double-from-cells-s`, the op runs
-  in bignum, and we push back via `forth-double-push-s`. Hayes Core
-  doesn't exercise D-words (those live in Gerry Jackson's separate
-  `doublest.fth` Double word-set tests we have not vendored), so the
-  scoreboard stays at 446/638 — but the words now exist for any
-  consumer that needs them.
-
- **Phase 5 — mixed/double-cell math; Hayes 342→446 (69%).** Added
-  `S>D`, `D>S`, `M*`, `UM*`, `UM/MOD`, `FM/MOD`, `SM/REM`, `*/`, `*/MOD`.
-  Doubles ride on the stack as `(lo, hi)` with `hi` on top.
-  Helpers `forth-double-push-{u,s}` / `forth-double-from-cells-{u,s}`
-  split & rebuild via 32-bit unsigned mod/div, picking the negative
-  path explicitly so we don't form `2^64 + small` (float precision
-  drops at ULP=2^12 once you cross 2^64). `M*`/`UM*` use bignum
-  multiply then split; `*/`/`*/MOD` use bignum intermediate and
-  truncated division. Hayes: 446 pass / 185 error / 7 fail.
-
- **Phase 5 — memory primitives + unsigned compare; Hayes 268→342 (53%).**
-  Added `CREATE`/`HERE`/`ALLOT`/`,`/`C,`/`CELL+`/`CELLS`/`ALIGN`/`ALIGNED`/
-  `2!`/`2@`/`U<`/`U>`. Generalised `@`/`!`/`+!` to dispatch on address
-  type: string addresses still go through `state.vars` (VARIABLE/VALUE
-  cells) while integer addresses now fall through to `state.mem` —
-  letting CREATE-allocated cells coexist with existing variables.
-  Decomposed the original "Full Core + Core Extension" box into
-  smaller unticked sub-bullets so iterations land per cluster.
-  Hayes: 342 pass / 292 error / 4 fail (53%). 237/237 internal.
-
- **Phase 4 close — LSHIFT/RSHIFT, 32-bit arith truncation, early
-  binding; Hayes 174→268 (42%).** Added `LSHIFT` / `RSHIFT` as logical
-  shifts on 32-bit unsigned values, converted through
-  `forth-to-unsigned`/`forth-from-unsigned`. All arithmetic
-  primitives (`+` `-` `*` `/` `MOD` `NEGATE` `ABS` `1+` `1-` `2+`
-  `2-` `2*` `2/`) now clip results to 32-bit signed via a new
-  `forth-clip` helper, so loop idioms that rely on `2*` shifting the
-  MSB out (e.g. Hayes' `BITS` counter) actually terminate.
-  Changed colon-def call compilation from late-binding to early
-  binding: `forth-compile-call` now resolves the target word at
-  compile time, which makes `: GDX 123 ; : GDX GDX 234 ;` behave
-  per ANS (inner `GDX` → old def, not infinite recursion). `RECURSE`
-  keeps its late-binding thunk via the new `forth-compile-recurse`
-  helper. Raised `MAX_CHUNKS` default to 638 (full `core.fr`) now
-  that the BITS and COUNT-BITS loops terminate. Hayes: 268 pass /
-  368 error / 2 fail.
-
- **Phase 4 — `SP@`/`SP!` (+4; Hayes unchanged; `DEPTH` was already present).**
-  `SP@` pushes the current data-stack depth (our closest analogue to a
-  stack pointer — SX lists have no addressable backing). `SP!` pops a
-  target depth and truncates the stack via `drop` on the dstack list.
-  This preserves the save/restore idiom `SP@ … SP!` even though the
-  returned "pointer" is really a count.
-
- **Phase 4 — `BASE`/`DECIMAL`/`HEX`/`BIN`/`OCTAL` (+9; Hayes unchanged).**
-  Moved `base` from its top-level state slot into `state.vars["base"]`
-  so the regular `@`/`!`/VARIABLE machinery works on it.
-  `BASE` pushes the sentinel address `"base"`; `DECIMAL`/`HEX`/`BIN`/
-  `OCTAL` are thin primitives that write into that slot. Parser
-  reads through `vars` now. Hayes unchanged because the runner had
-  already been stubbing `HEX`/`DECIMAL` — now real words, stubs
-  removed from `hayes-runner.sx`.
-
- **Phase 4 — `CHAR`/`[CHAR]`/`KEY`/`ACCEPT` (+7 / Hayes 168→174).**
-  `CHAR` parses the next token and pushes the first-char code. `[CHAR]`
-  is IMMEDIATE: in compile mode it embeds the code as a compiled push
-  op, in interpret mode it pushes inline. `KEY`/`ACCEPT` read from an
-  optional `state.keybuf` string — empty buffer makes `KEY` raise
-  `"no input available"` (matches ANS when stdin is closed) and
-  `ACCEPT` returns `0`. Enough for Hayes to get past CHAR-gated
-  clusters; real interactive IO lands later.
-
- **Phase 4 — strings: `S"`/`C"`/`."`/`TYPE`/`COUNT`/`CMOVE`/`CMOVE>`/`MOVE`/`FILL`/`BLANK`/`C@`/`C!`/`CHAR+`/`CHARS` (+16 / Hayes 165→168).**
-  Added a byte-addressable memory model to state: `mem` (dict keyed by
-  stringified address → integer byte) and `here` (next-free integer
-  addr). Helpers `forth-alloc-bytes!` / `forth-mem-write-string!` /
-  `forth-mem-read-string`. `S"`/`C"`/`."` are IMMEDIATE parsing words
-  that consume tokens until one ends with `"`, then either copy content
-  into memory at compile time (and emit a push of `addr`/`addr len` for
-  the colon-def body) or do it inline in interpret mode. `TYPE` emits
-  `u` bytes from `addr` via `char-from-code`. `COUNT` reads the length
-  byte at a counted-string address and pushes (`addr+1`, `u`). `FILL`,
-  `BLANK` (FILL with space), `CMOVE` (forward), `CMOVE>` (backward),
-  and `MOVE` (auto-directional) mutate the byte dict. 193/193 internal
-  tests, Hayes 168/590 (+3).
-
- **Phase 3 — Hayes conformance runner + baseline scoreboard (165/590, 28%).**
-  `lib/forth/conformance.sh` preprocesses `ans-tests/core.fr` (strips `\`
-  and `( ... )` comments + `TESTING` lines), splits the source on every
-  `}T` so each Hayes test plus the small declaration blocks between
-  them are one safe-resume chunk, and emits an SX driver that feeds
-  the chunks through `lib/forth/hayes-runner.sx`. The runner registers
-  `T{`/`->`/`}T` as Forth primitives that snapshot the dstack depth on
-  `T{`, record actual on `->`, compare on `}T`, and install stub
-  `HEX`/`DECIMAL`/`TESTING` so metadata doesn't halt the stream. Errors
-  raised inside a chunk are caught by `guard` and the state is reset,
-  so one bad test does not break the rest. Outputs
-  `scoreboard.json` + `scoreboard.md`.
-
-  First-run baseline: 165 pass / 425 error / 0 fail on the first 590
-  chunks. The default cap sits at 590 because `core.fr` chunks beyond
-  that rely on unsigned-integer wrap-around (e.g. `COUNT-BITS` with
-  `BEGIN DUP WHILE … 2* REPEAT`) which never terminates on our
-  bignum-based Forth; raise `MAX_CHUNKS` once those tests unblock.
-  Majority of errors are missing Phase-4 words (`RSHIFT`, `LSHIFT`,
-  `CELLS`, `S"`, `CHAR`, `SOURCE`, etc.) — each one implemented should
-  convert a cluster of errors to passes.
-
- **Phase 3 — vendor Gerry Jackson's forth2012-test-suite.** Added
-  `lib/forth/ans-tests/{tester.fr, core.fr, coreexttest.fth}` from
-  https://github.com/gerryjackson/forth2012-test-suite (master, fetched
-  2026-04-24). `tester.fr` is Hayes' `T{ ... -> ... }T` harness; `core.fr`
-  is the ~1000-line Core word tests; `coreexttest.fth` is Core Ext
-  (parked for later phases). Files are pristine — the conformance runner
-  (next iteration) will consume them.
-
- **Phase 3 — `DO`/`LOOP`/`+LOOP`/`I`/`J`/`LEAVE` + return stack words (+16).**
-  Counted loops compile onto the same PC-driven body runner. DO emits an
-  enter-op (pops limit+start from data stack, pushes them to rstack) and
-  pushes a `{:kind "do" :back PC :leaves ()}` marker onto cstack. LOOP/+LOOP
-  emit a dict op (`:kind "loop"`/`"+loop"` with target=back-cell). The step
-  handler pops index & reads limit, increments, and either restores the
-  updated index + jumps back, or drops the frame and advances. LEAVE walks
-  cstack for the innermost DO marker, emits a `:kind "leave"` dict op with
-  a fresh target cell, and registers it on the marker's leaves list. LOOP
-  patches all registered leave-targets to the exit PC and drops the marker.
-  The leave op pops two from rstack (unloop) and branches. `I` peeks rtop;
-  `J` reads rstack index 2 (below inner frame). Added non-immediate
-  return-stack words `>R`, `R>`, `R@`, `2>R`, `2R>`, `2R@`. Nested
-  DO/LOOP with J tested; LEAVE in nested loops exits only the inner.
-  177/177 green.
-
- **Phase 3 — `BEGIN`/`UNTIL`/`WHILE`/`REPEAT`/`AGAIN` (+9).** Indefinite-loop
-  constructs built on the same PC-driven body runner introduced for `IF`.
-  BEGIN records the current body length on `state.cstack` (a plain numeric
-  back-target). UNTIL/AGAIN pop that back-target and emit a `bif`/`branch`
-  op whose target cell is set to the recorded PC. WHILE emits a forward
-  `bif` with a fresh target cell and pushes it on the cstack *above* the
-  BEGIN marker; REPEAT pops both (while-target first, then back-pc), emits
-  an unconditional branch back to BEGIN, then patches the while-target to
-  the current body length — so WHILE's false flag jumps past the REPEAT.
-  Mixed compile-time layout (numeric back-targets + dict forward targets
-  on the same cstack) is OK because the immediate words pop them in the
-  order they expect. AGAIN works structurally but lacks a test without a
-  usable mid-loop exit; revisit once `EXIT` lands. 161/161 green.
-
- **Phase 3 start — `IF`/`ELSE`/`THEN` (+18).** `lib/forth/compiler.sx`
-  + `tests/test-phase3.sx`. Colon-def body switched from `for-each` to
-  a PC-driven runner so branch ops can jump: ops now include dict tags
-  `{"kind" "bif"|"branch" "target" cell}` alongside the existing
-  `(fn (s) ...)` shape. IF compiles a `bif` with a fresh target cell
-  pushed to `state.cstack`; ELSE emits an unconditional `branch`,
-  patches the IF's target to the instruction after this branch, and
-  pushes the new target; THEN patches the most recent target to the
-  current body length. Nested IF/ELSE/THEN works via the cstack.
-  Also fixed `EMIT`: `code-char` → `char-from-code` (spec-correct
-  primitive name) so Phase 1/2 tests run green on sx_server.
-  152/152 (Phase 1 + 2 + 3) green.
-
 - **Phase 2 complete — colon defs, compile mode, VARIABLE/CONSTANT/VALUE/TO, @/!/+! (+26).**
  `lib/forth/compiler.sx` plus `tests/test-phase2.sx`.
  Colon-def body is a list of ops (one per source token) wrapped in a single
