+on first fetch: 2026-04-24).

+Files in this directory are pristine copies of upstream — do not edit them.
+They are consumed by the conformance runner in `lib/forth/conformance.sh`.

+- `tester.fr` — John Hayes' test harness (`T{ ... -> ... }T`). (C) 1995
+  Johns Hopkins APL, distributable under its notice.
+- `core.fr` — Core word set tests (Hayes, ~1000 lines).
+- `coreexttest.fth` — Core Extension tests (Gerry Jackson).
+
+Only `core.fr` is expected to run green end-to-end for Phase 3; the others
+stay parked until later phases.

+\ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+\ Version 0.15 1 August 2025 Added two tests to VALUE
+\         0.14 21 July 2022 Updated first line of BUFFER: test as recommended
+\              in issue 32
+\         0.13 28 October 2015
+\              Replace <FALSE> and <TRUE> with FALSE and TRUE to avoid
+\              dependence on Core tests
+\              Moved SAVE-INPUT and RESTORE-INPUT tests in a file to filetest.fth
+\              Use of 2VARIABLE (from optional wordset) replaced with CREATE.
+\              Minor lower to upper case conversions.
+\              Calls to COMPARE replaced by S= (in utilities.fth) to avoid use
+\              of a word from an optional word set.
+\              UNUSED tests revised as UNUSED UNUSED = may return FALSE when an
+\              implementation has the data stack sharing unused dataspace.
+\              Double number input dependency removed from the HOLDS tests.
+\              Minor case sensitivities removed in definition names.
+\         0.11 25 April 2015
+\              Added tests for PARSE-NAME HOLDS BUFFER:
+\              S\" tests added
+\              DEFER IS ACTION-OF DEFER! DEFER@ tests added
+\              Empty CASE statement test added
+\              [COMPILE] tests removed because it is obsolescent in Forth 2012
+\         0.10 1 August 2014
+\             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
+\     - the Core word set available

+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.

+- **Source**: `gerryjackson/forth2012-test-suite` `src/core.fr`
+- **Generated**: 2026-04-25T04:57:22Z
+- **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.

 ## Progress log
 
 _Newest first._
 
+- **Phase 6 close — JIT cooperation hooks (Hayes unchanged at 618/638).**
+  Every word record now carries `:vm-eligible? true` and a
+  `:call-count` counter that `forth-execute-word` bumps on every
+  invocation. The flag is a hint for downstream JIT consumers — our
+  bodies are plain SX lambdas already, so the existing SX VM's
+  on-first-call JIT lifts them into bytecode automatically; the
+  metadata just makes that fact discoverable. Added
+  `forth-hot-words state threshold` returning `(name count)`
+  pairs above a threshold so a future tracing JIT can pick out
+  hot definitions to specialise. Phase 6 boxes all ticked.
+  All 306 internal tests green; Hayes Core stays at 618/638.
+
+- **Phase 6 — TCO at colon-def endings (Hayes unchanged at 618/638).**
+  `forth-run-body` now special-cases the final op when it's a plain
+  function (not a branch dict): we call it in tail position with no
+  pc-increment and no recursive `forth-run-body` call. This means
+  the SX CEK can collapse the continuation frame, so chains like
+  `: A ... B ; : B ... C ; …` and `RECURSE` deep-recursion test
+  cases run without piling up frames at each colon-def boundary.
+  All 306 internal tests still green; verified 5000-deep
+  `COUNTDOWN RECURSE` still terminates fine.
+
+- **Phase 6 — inline primitive calls (Hayes unchanged at 618/638).**
+  `forth-compile-call` now appends the looked-up word's body fn
+  directly to the colon-def body instead of wrapping it in
+  `(fn (s) (forth-execute-word s w))`. `forth-execute-word body`
+  reduces to `((get w "body") state)`, so the wrapper added an
+  extra closure + `get` per call op for no behavioural gain. Same
+  early-binding semantics: the body fn is captured at compile time,
+  so later redefinitions of the same name don't retroactively
+  change existing definitions. All 306 internal tests still green;
+  Hayes Core stays at 618/638. Pure optimisation.
+
+- **Phase 5 close — `\` no-op + POSTPONE-immediate split + `>NUMBER` +
+  `DOES>`; Hayes 486→618 (97%).** Big closing-out iteration.
+  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:
+  1) tracking the last CREATE on `state.last-creator`,
+  2) adding a `:kind "does-rebind"` op, and
+  3) post-processing the body in `;` to attach the slice of ops
+     after each rebind as `:deferred`. At runtime, the rebind op
+     installs a new body for the target word that pushes its
+     data-field address and runs the deferred slice. Also added
+     histogram tracking on the conformance runner so future runs
+     surface the top missing words. Hayes: 618/638 pass (97%),
+     14 fail, 6 error (5× GI5 multi-WHILE, 1× dict-set! chunk).
+
+- **Phase 5 — String word set `COMPARE`/`SEARCH`/`SLITERAL` (+9).**
+  `COMPARE` walks bytes via the new `forth-compare-bytes-loop`,
+  returning -1/0/1 with standard prefix semantics (shorter string
+  compares less than its extension). `SEARCH` scans the haystack
+  with a helper `forth-search-bytes` and `forth-match-at`, returning
+  the tail after the first match or the original string with flag=0.
+  Empty needle returns at offset 0 with flag=-1 per ANS. `SLITERAL`
+  is IMMEDIATE: pops `(c-addr u)` at compile time, copies the bytes
+  into a fresh allocation, and emits the two pushes so the compiled
+  word yields the interned string at runtime.
+
+- **Phase 5 — File Access word set (in-memory backing; +4).**
+  `OPEN-FILE`/`CREATE-FILE`/`CLOSE-FILE`/`READ-FILE`/`WRITE-FILE`/
+  `FILE-POSITION`/`FILE-SIZE`/`REPOSITION-FILE`/`DELETE-FILE` plus
+  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

-
-Goal: take hyperscript conformance from **1277/1496 (85.4%)** to **1496/1496 (100%)** by clearing the blocked clusters and the design-done Bucket E subsystems.
-
-This plan exists because the per-iteration `loops/hs` agent can't fit these into its 30-min budget — they need dedicated multi-commit sit-downs. Track progress here; refer to `plans/hs-conformance-to-100.md` for the canonical cluster ledger.
-
-## Current state (2026-04-25)
-
-- Loop running in `/root/rose-ash-loops/hs` (branch `loops/hs`)
-- sx-tree MCP **fixed** (was a session-stale binary issue — restart of claude in the tmux window picked it up). Loop hinted to retry **#32**, **#29** first.
-- Recent loop progress: ~1 commit/6h — easy wins drained, what's left needs focused attention.

-### Bucket F — generator translation gaps
-
-~25 tests SKIP'd because `tests/playwright/generate-sx-tests.py` bails with `return None`. Single dedicated generator-repair sit-down once Bucket D is drained. ~half-day.
-
-## Order of attack
-
-In approximate cost-per-test order:
-
-1. **Loop self-heal** (no human work) — wait for #29, #32 to land via the running loop ⏱️ ~next 1-2 hours
-2. **#31 null-safety** — biggest scoped single win, dedicated worktree agent (this session)
-3. **#33 cookie API remainder** — quick partial completion
-4. **#17 / #22 / #34 / #35** — small fiddly fixes, one sit-down each
-5. **Bucket E** — pick one subsystem at a time. **#39 (WebWorker stub) first** — single commit, smallest. Then **#38 (SourceInfo)** — 4 commits. Then the bigger three (#36, #37, #40).
-6. **Bucket F** — generator repair sweep at the end.
-
-Estimated total to 100%: ~10-15 days of focused work, parallelisable across branches.
-
-## Cluster #31 spec (full detail)
-
-The plan note from `hs-conformance-to-100.md`:
-
-> 18 tests in `runtimeErrors`. When accessing `.foo` on nil, emit a structured error with position info. One coordinated fix in the compiler emit paths for property access, function calls, set/put.
-
-**Required pieces:**
-
-1. **Generator-side `eval-hs-error` helper + recognizer** for `expect(await error("HS")).toBe("MSG")` blocks. In `tests/playwright/generate-sx-tests.py`.
-2. **Runtime helpers** in `lib/hyperscript/runtime.sx`:
-   - `hs-null-error!` raising `'<sel>' is null`
-   - `hs-named-target` — wraps a query result with the original selector source
-   - `hs-named-target-list` — same for list results
-3. **Compiler patches at every target-position `(query SEL)` emit** — wrap in named-target carrying the original selector source. ~17 command emit paths in `lib/hyperscript/compiler.sx`:
-   add, remove, hide, show, measure, settle, trigger, send, set, default, increment, decrement, put, toggle, transition, append, take.
-4. **Function-call null-check** at bare `(name)`, `hs-method-call`, and `host-get` chains, deriving the leftmost-uncalled-name (`'x'` / `'x.y'`) from the parse tree.
-5. **Possessive-base null-check** (`set x's y to true` → `'x' is null`).
-
-**Files in scope:**
-- `lib/hyperscript/runtime.sx` (new helpers)
-- `lib/hyperscript/compiler.sx` (~17 emit-path edits)
-- `tests/playwright/generate-sx-tests.py` (test recognizer)
-- `tests/hs-run-filtered.js` (if mock helpers needed)
-- `shared/static/wasm/sx/hs-runtime.sx` + `hs-compiler.sx` (WASM staging copies)
-
-**Approach:** target-named pieces incrementally — runtime helpers first (no compiler change), then compiler emit paths in batches (group similar commands), then function-call/possessive at the end. Each batch is one commit if it lands +N tests; mark partial if it only unlocks part.
-
-**Watch for:** smoke-range regressions (tests flipping pass→fail). Each commit: rerun smoke 0-195 and the `runtimeErrors` suite.
-
-## Notes for future sessions
-
-- `plans/hs-conformance-to-100.md` is the canonical cluster ledger — update it on every commit.
-- `plans/hs-conformance-scoreboard.md` is the live tally — bump `Merged:` and the bucket roll-up.
-- Loop has scope rule "never edit `spec/evaluator.sx` or broader SX kernel" — most fixes here stay in `lib/hyperscript/**`, `tests/`, generator. If a fix needs kernel work, surface to the user; don't merge silently.
-- Cluster #22's `symbol-bound?` predicate would be a kernel addition — that's a real cross-boundary scope expansion.

-- **67a5f137** — `HS: in-expression filter semantics (+1 test)`. `1 in [1, 2, 3]` was returning boolean `true` instead of the filtered list `(list 1)`. Root cause: `in?` compiled to `hs-contains?` which returns boolean for scalar items. Fix: (a) `runtime.sx` adds `hs-in?` returning filtered list for all cases, plus `hs-in-bool?` which wraps with `(not (hs-falsy? ...))` for boolean contexts; (b) `compiler.sx` changes `in?` clause to emit `(hs-in? collection item)` and adds new `in-bool?` clause emitting `(hs-in-bool? collection item)`; (c) `parser.sx` changes `is in` and `am in` comparison forms to produce `in-bool?` so those stay boolean.

-- **d31565d5** — `HS cluster 22: simplify win-call emit + def→window + init-blocks test (+1)`. Two-part change building on 337c8265 (host-call-fn FFI + hs-win-call runtime). (a) `compiler.sx` removes the guard wrapper from bare-call and method-call `hs-win-call` emit paths — direct `(hs-win-call name (list args))` is sufficient since hs-win-call returns nil for unknown names; `def` compilation now also emits `(host-set! (host-global "window") name fn)` so every HS-defined function is reachable via window lookup. (b) `generate-sx-tests.py` fixes a quoting bug: `\"here\"` was being embedded as three SX nodes (`""` + symbol + `""`) instead of a single escaped-quote string; fixed with `\\\"` escaping. Hand-rolled deftest for `can refer to function in init blocks` now passes. Suite hs-upstream-core/regressions: 13/16 → 14/16. Smoke 0-195: 172/195 → 173/195.

-### 2026-04-25 — cluster 11/33 followups: hide strategy + cookie clear (+2)
-- **5ff2b706** — `HS: cluster 11/33 followups (+2 tests)`. Three orthogonal fixes that pick up tests now unblocked by earlier work. (a) `parser.sx` `parse-hide-cmd`/`parse-show-cmd`: added `on` to the keyword set that flips the implicit-`me` target. Previously `on click 1 hide on click 2 show` silently parsed as `(hs-hide! nil ...)` because `parse-expr` started consuming `on` and returned nil; now hide/show recognise a sibling feature and default to `me`. (b) `runtime.sx` `hs-method-call` fallback for non-built-in methods: SX-callables (lambdas) call via `apply`, JS-native functions (e.g. `cookies.clear`) dispatch via `(apply host-call (cons obj (cons method args)))` so the native receives the args list. (c) Generator `hs-cleanup!` body wrapped in `begin` (fn body evaluates only the last expr) and now resets `hs-set-default-hide-strategy! nil` + `hs-set-log-all! false` between tests — the prior `can set default to custom strategy` cluster-11 test had been leaking `_hs-default-hide-strategy` into the rest of the suite, breaking `hide element then show element retains original display`. New cluster-33 hand-roll for `basic clear cookie values work` exercises the method-call fallback. Suite hs-upstream-hide: 15/16 → 16/16. Suite hs-upstream-expressions/cookies: 3/5 → 4/5. Smoke 0-195 unchanged at 172/195.

-### 2026-04-25 — cluster 35 namespaced def + script-tag globals (+3)
-- **122053ed** — `HS: namespaced def + script-tag global functions (+3 tests)`. Two-part change: (a) `runtime.sx` `hs-method-call` gains a fallback for unknown methods — `(let ((fn-val (host-get obj method))) (if (callable? fn-val) (apply fn-val args) nil))`. This lets `utils.foo()` dispatch through `(host-get utils "foo")` when `utils` is an SX dict whose `foo` is an SX lambda. (b) Generator hand-rolls 3 deftests since the SX runtime has no `<script type='text/hyperscript'>` tag boot. For `is called synchronously` / `can call asynchronously`: `(eval-expr-cek (hs-to-sx (first (hs-parse (hs-tokenize "def foo() ... end")))))` registers the function in the global eval env (eval-expr-cek processes `(define foo (fn ...))` at top scope), then a click div is built via dom-set-attr + hs-boot-subtree!. For `functions can be namespaced`: define `utils` as a dict, register `__utils_foo` as a fresh-named global def, then `(host-set! utils "foo" __utils_foo)` populates the dict; click handler `call utils.foo()` compiles to `(hs-method-call utils "foo")` which now dispatches through the new runtime fallback. Skip-list cleared of the 3 def entries. Suite hs-upstream-def: 24/27 → 27/27. Smoke 0-195 unchanged at 172/195.

-### 2026-04-25 — cluster 34 elsewhere / from-elsewhere modifier (+2)
-- **3044a168** — `HS: elsewhere / from elsewhere modifier (+2 tests)`. Three-part change: (a) `parser.sx` `parse-on-feat` parses an optional `elsewhere` (or `from elsewhere`) modifier between event-name and source. The `from elsewhere` variant uses a one-token lookahead so plain `from #target` keeps parsing as a source expression. Emits `:elsewhere true` part. (b) `compiler.sx` `scan-on` threads `elsewhere?` (10th param) through every recursive call + new `:elsewhere` cond branch. The dispatch case becomes a 3-way `cond` over target: elsewhere → `(dom-body)` (listener attaches to body and bubble sees every click), source → from-source, default → `me`. The `compiled-body` build is wrapped with `(when (not (host-call me "contains" (host-get event "target"))) BODY)` so handlers fire only on outside-of-`me` clicks. (c) Generator drops `supports "elsewhere" modifier` and `supports "from elsewhere" modifier` from `SKIP_TEST_NAMES`. Suite hs-upstream-on: 48/70 → 50/70. Smoke 0-195 unchanged at 172/195.

-### 2026-04-25 — cluster 34 count-filtered events + first modifier (+5 partial)
-- **19c97989** — `HS: count-filtered events + first modifier (+5 tests)`. Three-part change: (a) `parser.sx` `parse-on-feat` accepts `first` keyword before event-name (sets `cnt-min/max=1`), then optionally parses a count expression after event-name: bare number = exact count, `N to M` = inclusive range, `N and on` = unbounded above. Number tokens coerced via `parse-number`. New parts entry `:count-filter {"min" N "max" M-or--1}`. (b) `compiler.sx` `scan-on` gains a 9th `count-filter-info` param threaded through every recursive call + a new `:count-filter` cond branch. The handler binding now wraps the `(fn (event) BODY)` in `(let ((__hs-count 0)) (fn (event) (begin (set! __hs-count (+ __hs-count 1)) (when COUNT-CHECK BODY))))` when count info is present. Each `on EVENT N ...` clause produces its own closure-captured counter, so `on click 1` / `on click 2` / `on click 3` fire on their respective Nth click (mix-ranges test). (c) Generator drops 5 entries from `SKIP_TEST_NAMES` — `can filter events based on count`/`...count range`/`...unbounded count range`/`can mix ranges`/`on first click fires only once`. Suite hs-upstream-on: 43/70 → 48/70. Smoke 0-195 unchanged at 172/195. Remaining cluster-34 work (`elsewhere`/`from elsewhere`/`every`-keyword multi-handler) is independent from count filters and would need a separate iteration.

-### 2026-04-25 — cluster 29 hyperscript init events (+2 partial)
-- **e01a3baa** — `HS: hyperscript:before:init / :after:init events (+2 tests)`. `integration.sx` `hs-activate!` now wraps the activation block in `(when (dom-dispatch el "hyperscript:before:init" nil) ...)` — `dom-dispatch` builds a CustomEvent with `bubbles:true`, the mock El's `cancelable` defaults to true, `dispatchEvent` returns `!ev.defaultPrevented`, so `when` skips the activate body if a listener called `preventDefault()`. After activation completes successfully it dispatches `hyperscript:after:init`. Generator (`tests/playwright/generate-sx-tests.py`) gains two hand-rolled deftests: `fires hyperscript:before:init and hyperscript:after:init` builds a wa container, attaches listeners that append to a captured `events` list, sets innerHTML to a div with `_=`, calls `hs-boot-subtree!`, asserts the events list. `hyperscript:before:init can cancel initialization` attaches a preventDefault listener and asserts `data-hyperscript-powered` is absent on the inner div after boot. Suite hs-upstream-core/bootstrap: 20/26 → 22/26. Smoke 0-195: 170 → 172. Remaining 4 cluster-29 tests (basic parse error messages, parse-error event, EOF newline, eval-API throws on first error) all need stricter parser error-rejection plus a parse-error collector — recommend bucket-D plan-first multi-commit, not a single iteration.
-
-### 2026-04-25 — cluster 32 MutationObserver mock + on mutation dispatch (+7)
-- **13e02542** — `HS: MutationObserver mock + on mutation dispatch (+7 tests)`. Five-part change: (a) `parser.sx` `parse-on-feat` now consumes `of <FILTER>` after `mutation` event-name. FILTER is one of `attributes`/`childList`/`characterData` (ident tokens) or one or more `@name` attr-tokens chained by `or`. Emits `:of-filter {"type" T "attrs" L?}` part. (b) `compiler.sx` `scan-on` threads new `of-filter-info` param; the dispatch case becomes a `cond` over `event-name` — for `"mutation"` it emits `(do on-call (hs-on-mutation-attach! target MODE ATTRS))` where ATTRS is `(cons 'list attr-list)` so the list survives compile→eval. (c) `runtime.sx` `hs-on-mutation-attach!` builds a config dict (`attributes`/`childList`/`characterData`/`subtree`/`attributeFilter`) matched to mode, constructs a real `MutationObserver(cb)`, calls `mo.observe(target, opts)`, and the cb dispatches a `"mutation"` event on target. (d) `tests/hs-run-filtered.js` replaces the no-op MO with `HsMutationObserver` (global registry, decodes SX-list `attributeFilter`); prototype hooks on `El.setAttribute/appendChild/removeChild/_setInnerHTML` fire matching observers synchronously, with `__hsMutationActive` re-entry guard so handlers that mutate the DOM don't infinite-loop. Per-test reset clears registry + flag. (e) `generate-sx-tests.py` drops 7 mutation entries from `SKIP_TEST_NAMES` and adds two body patterns: `evaluate(() => document.querySelector(SEL).setAttribute(N,V))` → `(dom-set-attr ...)`, and `evaluate(() => document.querySelector(SEL).appendChild(document.createElement(T)))` → `(dom-append … (dom-create-element …))`. Suite hs-upstream-on: 36/70 → 43/70. Smoke 0-195 unchanged at 170/195.
-
-### 2026-04-25 — cluster 33 cookie API (partial +3)
-- No `.sx` edits needed — `set cookies.foo to 'bar'` already compiles to `(dom-set-prop cookies "foo" "bar")` which becomes `(host-set! cookies "foo" "bar")` once the `dom` module is loaded, and `cookies.foo` becomes `(host-get cookies "foo")`. So a JS-only Proxy + Python generator change does the trick. Two parts: (a) `tests/hs-run-filtered.js` adds a per-test `__hsCookieStore` Map, a `globalThis.cookies` Proxy with `length`/`clear`/named-key get traps and a set trap that writes the store, and a `Object.defineProperty(document, 'cookie', …)` getter/setter that reads and writes the same store (so the upstream `length is 0` test's pre-clear loop over `document.cookie` works). Per-test reset clears the store. (b) `tests/playwright/generate-sx-tests.py` declares `(define cookies (host-global "cookies"))` in the test header and emits hand-rolled deftests for the three tractable tests (`basic set`, `update`, `length is 0`). Suite hs-upstream-expressions/cookies: 0/5 → 3/5. Smoke 0-195 unchanged at 170/195. Remaining `basic clear` and `iterate` tests need runtime.sx edits (hs-method-call fallback + hs-for-each host-array recognition) — out of scope for a JS-only iteration.
-
-### 2026-04-25 — cluster 32 MutationObserver mock + on mutation dispatch (blocked)
-- Two issues conspire: (1) `loops/hs` worktree has no pre-built sx-tree binary so MCP tools aren't loaded, and the block-sx-edit hook prevents raw `Edit`/`Read`/`Write` on `.sx` files. Built `hosts/ocaml/_build/default/bin/mcp_tree.exe` via `dune build` this iteration but tools don't surface mid-session. (2) Cluster scope is genuinely big: parser must learn `on mutation of <filter>` (currently drops body after `of` — verified via compile dump: `on mutation of attributes put "Mutated" into me` → `(hs-on me "mutation" (fn (event) nil))`), compiler needs `:of-filter` plumbing similar to intersection's `:having`, runtime needs `hs-on-mutation-attach!`, JS runner mock needs a real MutationObserver (currently no-op `class{observe(){}disconnect(){}}` at hs-run-filtered.js:348) plus `setAttribute`/`appendChild` instrumentation, and 7 entries removed from `SKIP_TEST_NAMES`. Recommended next step: dedicated worktree where sx-tree loads at session start, multi-commit shape (parser → compiler+attach → mock+runner → generator skip-list).

-### 2026-04-25 — cluster 31 runtime null-safety error reporting (blocked)
-- All 18 tests are `SKIP (untranslated)` — generator has no `error("HS")` helper at all. Inspected representative compile outputs: `add .foo to #doesntExist` → `(for-each ... (hs-query-all "#doesntExist"))` (silently no-ops on empty list, no error); `hide #doesntExist` → `(hs-hide! (hs-query-all "#doesntExist") "display")` (likewise); `put 'foo' into #doesntExist` → `(hs-set-inner-html! (hs-query-first "#doesntExist") "foo")` (passes nil through); `x()` → `(x)` (raises `Undefined symbol: x`, wrong format); `x.y.z()` → `(hs-method-call (host-get x "y") "z")`. Implementing this requires generator helper + 17 compiler emit-path patches + function-call/method-call/possessive-base null guards + new `hs-named-target`/`hs-named-target-list` runtime — too many surfaces for a single-iteration commit. Bucket D explicitly says "plan-first" — recommended path is a dedicated design doc and multi-commit worktree like E36-E40, not a loop iteration.

 ### 2026-04-24 — cluster 29 hyperscript:before:init / :after:init / :parse-error (blocked)
 - **2b486976** — `HS-plan: mark cluster 29 blocked`. sx-tree MCP file ops returning `Yojson__Safe.Util.Type_error("Expected string, got null")` on every file-based call (sx_read_subtree, sx_find_all, sx_replace_by_pattern, sx_summarise, sx_pretty_print, sx_write_file). Only in-memory ops work (sx_eval, sx_build, sx_env). Without sx-tree I can't edit integration.sx to add before:init/after:init dispatch on hs-activate!. Investigated the 6 tests: 2 bootstrap (before/after init) need dispatchEvent wrapping activate; 4 parser tests require stricter parser error-rejection — `add - to` currently parses silently to `(set! nil (hs-add-to! (- 0 nil) nil))`, `on click blargh end on mouseenter also_bad` parses silently to `(do (hs-on me "click" (fn (event) blargh)) (hs-on me "mouseenter" (fn (event) also_bad)))`. Fundamental parser refactor is out of single-cluster budget regardless of sx-tree availability.
