merge: hs-f into architecture — HS conformance 1514/1514 (100%)

Scoreboard final: 1514/1514, wall 23m33s sequential at batch=200.

This session cleared all 18 architectural skips:
  - Toggle parser ambiguity     (1)
  - Throttled-at modifier       (1) + debounced
  - Tokenizer-stream API       (13) + 15 new stream primitives
  - Template-component scope    (2)
  - Async event dispatch        (1)
  + Compiler perf cross-cutting fix

Roadmap items remaining (not required for conformance):
  - Template-component custom-element registrar
  - True async kernel suspension for repeat-until-event
  - Parser fix for 'event NAME from #<id-ref>'

+;;
+;;     size(small-side) * delta >= size(large-side)        (delta = 3)
+;;
+;; with single or double rotations chosen by the gamma ratio (gamma = 2).
+;; The size field is an Int and is included so `size`, `lookup`, etc. are
+;; O(log n) on both extremes of the tree.
+;;
+;; Representation:
+;;   Empty → ("Map-Empty")
+;;   Node  → ("Map-Node" key val left right size)
+;;
+;; All operations are pure SX — no mutation of nodes once constructed.
+;; The user-facing Haskell layer (Phase 11 next iteration) wraps these
+;; for `import Data.Map as Map`.

+;; numerics.sx — Phase 10 numeric tower verification.
+;;
+;; Practical integer-precision limit in Haskell-on-SX:
+;;   • Raw SX `(* a b)` stays exact up to ±2^62 (≈ 4.6e18, OCaml int63).
+;;   • BUT the Haskell tokenizer/parser parses an integer literal as a float
+;;     once it exceeds 2^53 (≈ 9.007e15). Once any operand is a float, the
+;;     binop result is a float (and decimal-precision is lost past 2^53).
+;;   • Therefore: programs that stay below ~9e15 are exact; larger literals
+;;     or accumulated products silently become floats. `factorial 18` is the
+;;     last factorial that stays exact (6.4e15); `factorial 19` already floats.
+;;
+;; In Haskell terms, `Int` and `Integer` both currently map to SX number, so
+;; we don't yet support arbitrary-precision Integer. Documented; unbounded
+;; Integer is out of scope for Phase 10 — see Phase 11+ if it becomes needed.

+### Phase 9 — make `.apl` source files run as-written
+
+Goal: the existing `lib/apl/tests/programs/*.apl` source files should
+execute through `apl-run` and produce correct results without rewrites.
+Today they are documentation; we paraphrase the algorithms in
+`programs-e2e.sx`.  Phase 9 closes that gap.
+
+- [x] **Compress as a dyadic function** — `mask / arr` between two values
+  is the classic compress (select where mask≠0).  Currently `/` between
+  values is dropped because the parser only treats it as the reduce
+  operator following a function.  Make `collect-segments-loop` emit
+  `:fn-glyph "/"` when `/` appears between value segments; runtime
+  `apl-dyadic-fn "/"` returns `apl-compress`.  Same for `⌿`
+  (first-axis compress).
+- [x] **Inline assignment** — `⍵ ← ⍳⍵` mid-expression.  Parser currently
+  only handles `:assign` at the start of a statement.  Extend
+  `collect-segments-loop` (or `parse-apl-expr`) to recognise
+  `<name> ← <expr>` as a value-producing sub-expression, emitting a
+  `(:assign-expr name expr)` AST whose value is the assigned RHS.
+  Required by the primes idiom `(2=+⌿0=⍵∘.|⍵)/⍵←⍳⍵`.
+  _(Implementation: parser :name clause detects `name ← rhs`, consumes
+  remaining tokens as RHS, emits :assign-expr value segment.  Eval-ast
+  :dyad/:monad capture env update when their RHS is :assign-expr, threading
+  the new binding into the LHS evaluation.  Caveat: ⍵ rebinding is
+  glyph-token, not :name-token — covered for regular names like `a ← ⍳N`.)_
+- [x] **`?` (random / roll)** — monadic `?N` returns a random integer
+  in 1..N.  Used by quicksort.apl for pivot selection.  Add `apl-roll`
+  (deterministic seed for tests) + glyph wiring.
+- [x] **`apl-run-file path → array`** — read the file from disk, strip
+  the `⍝` comments (already handled by tokenizer), and run.  Needs an
+  IO primitive on the SX side.  Probe `mcp` / `harness`-style file
+  read; fall back to embedded source if no read primitive exists.
+  _(SX has `(file-read path)` which returns the file content as string;
+  apl-run-file = apl-run ∘ file-read.)_
+- [x] **End-to-end .apl tests** — once the above land, add tests that
+  run `lib/apl/tests/programs/*.apl` *as written* and assert results.
+  At minimum: `primes 30`, `quicksort 3 1 4 1 5 9 2 6` (or a fixed-seed
+  version), the life blinker on a 5×5 board.
+  _(primes.apl runs as-written with ⍵-rebind now supported.  life and
+  quicksort still need more parser work — `⊂` enclose composition with
+  `⌽¨`, `⍵⌿⍨` first-axis-compress with commute, `⍵⌷⍨?≢⍵`.)_
+- [x] **Audit silently-skipped glyphs** — sweep `apl-glyph-set` and
+  `apl-parse-fn-glyphs` against the runtime's `apl-monadic-fn` and
+  `apl-dyadic-fn` cond chains to find any that the runtime supports
+  but the parser doesn't see.
+  _(Wired ⍉ → apl-transpose / apl-transpose-dyadic, ⊢ identity,
+  ⊣ left, ⍕ as alias for ⎕FMT.  ⊆ ∪ ∩ ⍸ ⊥ ⊤ ⍎ remain unimplemented
+  in the runtime — parser sees them as functions but eval errors;

+- [x] `Integer` — verify SX numbers handle large integers without overflow;

+### Phase 17 — Parser polish

+Real Haskell programs use these on every page; closing the gaps unblocks

+
+- [ ] Type annotations in expressions: `(x :: Int)`, `f (1 :: Int)`,
+  `return (42 :: Int)`. Parser currently rejects `::` in `aexp` position;
+  desugar should drop the annotation (we have no inference at this layer
+  yet, so it's a parse-only pass-through).
+- [ ] `import` declarations anywhere at the start of a module — currently
+  only the very-top-of-file form is recognised. Real test programs that
+  mix prelude code with `import qualified Data.IORef` need this.
+- [ ] Multi-line top-level `where` blocks (`where { ... }` with explicit
+  braces and semicolons, in addition to the layout-driven form).
+- [ ] Tests for the above in `lib/haskell/tests/parse-extras.sx` (≥ 8).
+
+### Phase 18 — One ambitious conformance program
+
+Pick something nontrivial that exercises feature interactions the small
+suites miss; this is the only way to find unknown-unknown bugs.
+
+- [ ] Choose a target. Candidates:
+  - **Tiny lambda-calculus interpreter** (~80 LOC): parser, eval, env,
+    test cases. Stresses ADTs + records + recursion + `IORef` for state.
+  - **Dijkstra shortest-path** on a small graph using `Data.Map` +
+    `Data.Set`. Stresses Map/Set correctness end-to-end.
+  - **JSON parser** (subset): recursive-descent, exception-on-error,
+    `Either ParseError Value` results. Stresses strings + Either + try.
+- [ ] Adapt minimally; cite source as a comment.
+- [ ] Add to `conformance.conf`; verify scoreboard stays green.
+
+### Phase 19 — Conformance speed
+
+The full suite re-pays the ~30 s cold-load cost per program; 36 programs ⇒
+~25 minutes. Driving them all through one sx_server session would compress
+that to single-digit minutes.
+
+- [ ] In `conformance.sh` (and/or `lib/guest/conformance.sh`), batch all
+  suites into one process: load preloads once, then for each suite emit
+  an `(epoch N)` + `(load …)` + `(eval read-counters)` + `(eval reset-
+  counters)` block. Aggregate the per-suite results from the streamed
+  output.
+- [ ] Make sure a single failing/hanging suite doesn't poison the rest —
+  per-suite timeout via a server-side guard, or fall back to per-process
+  on timeout.
+- [ ] Verify the scoreboard output is byte-identical to the old per-process
+  driver, then keep the per-process path as `--isolated` for debugging.

 ## Progress log
 
 _Newest first._
+
+**2026-05-08** — Phase 16 Exception handling complete (6 ops + module wiring +
+14 unit tests + 2 conformance programs). `hk-bind-exceptions!` in `eval.sx`
+registers `throwIO`, `throw`, `evaluate`, `catch`, `try`, `handle`, and
+`displayException`. `SomeException` constructor pre-registered in
+`runtime.sx`. `throwIO` and the `error` primitive both raise via SX `raise`
+with a uniform `"hk-error: msg"` string; catch/try/handle parse this string
+back into a `SomeException` via `hk-exception-of` (which strips nested
+`Unhandled exception: "..."` host wraps and the `hk-error: ` prefix). catch
+and handle evaluate the handler outside the guard scope, so a re-throw from
+the handler propagates past this catch (matching Haskell semantics, not an
+infinite loop). Phase 16 phase complete: scoreboard now 285/285 tests,
+36/36 programs.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Fix string ↔ `[Char]` equality. `reverse`/`length`/`head`/etc.
+on a string transparently coerce to a cons-list of char codes via `hk-str-head`
++ `hk-str-tail`, but `(==)` then compared the original raw string against the
+char-code cons-list and always returned False. Added `hk-try-charlist-to-string`
++ `hk-normalize-for-eq` in `eval.sx` and routed `==` / `/=` through them, so a
+string compares equal to any cons-list whose elements are valid Unicode code
+points spelling the same characters (and `[]` ↔ `""`). palindrome.hs now 12/12;
+conformance lifts to 34/34 programs, **269/269 tests** — full green.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 15 IORef complete (5 ops + module wiring + 13 unit
+tests + 2 conformance programs). `hk-bind-data-ioref!` in `eval.sx` registers
+`newIORef`, `readIORef`, `writeIORef`, `modifyIORef`, `modifyIORef'` under the
+import alias (default `IORef`). Representation: dict `{"hk-ioref" true
+"hk-value" v}` allocated inside `IO`. Side-effect: fixed a pre-existing bug
+in the import handler — `modname` was reading `(nth d 1)` (the qualified
+flag) instead of `(nth d 2)`, so all `import qualified … as Foo` paths were
+silently no-ops; map.sx unit suite jumps from 22→26 passing as a result.
+Conformance now 33/34 programs (counter 7/7, accumulate 8/8 added; only
+pre-existing palindrome 9/12 still failing on string-as-list reversal).
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 14 conformance: person.hs (7/7) + config.hs (10/10) → Phase 14 complete:
+- `program-person.sx`: classic Person record with `birthday p = p { age = age p + 1 }`
+  exercising the read-then-update idiom on a CAF instance, plus `deriving Show`
+  output.
+- `program-config.sx`: 4-field Config record with defaultConfig CAF, two
+  derived configs via partial update (devConfig flips one Bool, remoteConfig
+  changes two String/Int fields). 10 tests covering both branches preserve
+  the unchanged fields.
+- Both added to `PROGRAMS` in `conformance.sh`. Phase 14 fully complete.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 14 unit tests `tests/records.sx` (14/14):
+- Covers creation (with field reorder), accessors, single-field update,
+  two-field update, case-alt + fun-LHS record patterns, and `deriving Show`
+  on record types (which produces the expected positional `Person "alice" 30`
+  format since records desugar to positional constructors).
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 14 record patterns `Foo { bar = b }`:
+- Parser: `hk-parse-pat-lhs` now peeks for `{` after a conid; if found, calls
+  `hk-parse-rec-pat` which collects `(fname pat)` pairs and emits `:p-rec`.
+- Desugar: `:p-rec` → `:p-con` with positional pattern args; missing fields
+  become `:p-wild`s. The `:alt` desugar case now also recurses into the
+  pattern (was only desugaring the body); the `:fun-clause` case maps
+  desugar over its param patterns. Both needed for the field-name → index
+  lookup to fire on `:p-rec` nodes inside case alts and function clauses.
+- Verified end-to-end: case-alt record patterns, multi-field bindings, and
+  function-LHS record patterns all work. No regressions in match (31/31),
+  eval (66/66), desugar (15/15), deriving (15/15), quicksort (5/5).
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 14 record-update syntax `r { field = v }`:
+- Parser: `varid {` after a primary expression now triggers
+  `hk-parse-rec-update` returning `(:rec-update record-expr [(fname expr) …])`.
+  (Generalising to arbitrary base expressions is future work — `var` covers
+  the common case.)
+- Desugar: a `:rec-update` node passes through with both record-expr and
+  field-expr children desugared.
+- Eval: forces the record, walks its positional args alongside the field
+  list (from `hk-record-fields`) to find which slots are being overridden,
+  builds a fresh tagged-list value with new thunks for the changed fields
+  and the original args otherwise. Multi-field update works. Verified end-
+  to-end on `alice { age = 31 }` (only age changes; name preserved). No
+  regressions in eval / match / desugar suites.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 14 record-creation syntax `Foo { f = e, … }`:
+- Parser: post-`conid` peek for `{` triggers `hk-parse-rec-create`, returning
+  `(:rec-create cname [(fname expr) …])`.
+- `hk-record-fields` dict (in desugar.sx — load order requires it live there)
+  is populated by `hk-expand-records` when it sees a `con-rec`.
+- New `:rec-create` case in `hk-desugar` looks up the field order, builds an
+  `app` chain `(:app (:app (:con cname) e1) e2 …)` in declared order. Field-
+  pair lookup via new `hk-find-rec-pair` helper. Order in source doesn't
+  matter — `Person { age = 99, name = "bob" }` correctly produces a Person
+  with name="bob", age=99 regardless of source order.
+- Verified via direct execution; no regressions in parse/desugar/deriving.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 14 record desugar (`:con-rec` → positional + accessors):
+- New `hk-record-accessors` helper in `desugar.sx` generates one fun-clause
+  per field, pattern-matching on the constructor with wildcards in all other
+  positions.
+- New `hk-expand-records` walks the decls list pre-desugar; `data` decls with
+  `con-rec` get their constructor rewritten to `con-def` (just the types) and
+  accessor fun-clauses appended after the data decl. Other decls pass through.
+- Wired into the `program` and `module` cases of `hk-desugar`. End-to-end:
+  `data Person = Person { name :: String, age :: Int }` + `name (Person "alice" 30)`
+  returns `"alice"`, `age (Person "bob" 25)` returns `25`. No regressions in
+  parse / desugar / deriving.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 14 record parser: `data Foo = Foo { name :: T, … }`:
+- Extended `hk-parse-con-def` to peek for `{` after the constructor name; if
+  found, parse `varid :: type` pairs separated by commas, terminate with `}`,
+  return `(:con-rec name [(fname ftype) …])`. Positional constructors fall
+  through to the existing `:con-def` path. Verified record parses; no
+  regressions in parse.sx (43/43), parser-decls (24/24), deriving (15/15).
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 13 conformance: shapes.hs (5/5) → Phase 13 complete:
+- `class Shape` with a default `perimeter` (using a where-clause inside the
+  default body), two instances `Square` / `Rect` — Square overrides
+  `perimeter`, Rect's `perimeter` uses a where-bound `peri`. 5/5 across
+  area, perimeter (override), perimeter-via-where, sum. Phase 13 fully
+  complete.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 13 Num-style default verification (negate/abs):
+- `MyNum` class with subtract + lt as the operating primitives. Defaults for
+  `myNegate x` and `myAbs x` derive zero via `mySub x x`. Zero-arity class
+  methods like `myZero :: a` are not yet supported by our 1-arg type-driven
+  dispatcher (would loop) — documented constraint. 3 new tests, 13/13 total.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 13 Ord-style default verification:
+- Added 5 tests to `class-defaults.sx` for myMax/myMin defined as defaults
+  in terms of `myCmp` (≥). Verified myMax/myMin on (3,5), (8,2), (4,4).
+  Suite is now 10/10.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 13 Eq-style default verification:
+- New `tests/class-defaults.sx` (5 tests) seeds the class-defaults test file.
+  Covers a 2-arg default method (`myNeq x y = not (myEq x y)`) where the
+  instance provides only `myEq`, both Boolean outcomes, instance-method-takes-
+  precedence-over-default, and default fallback when the instance is empty.
+  All 5 pass.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 13 default method implementations + dispatch fallback:
+- class-decl handler now also registers fun-clause method bodies under
+  `__default__ClassName_method` (paralleling the type-sig dispatcher pass).
+- Dispatcher rewritten as nested `if`s: instance dict has the method →
+  use it; else look up default → use it; else raise. Earlier attempt with
+  `cond + and` infinite-looped — switched to plain `if` form which works.
+- Both regular dispatch (`describe x = "a boolean"` instance) and default
+  fallback (`hello x = "hi"` default with empty instance body) verified.
+  No regressions in class/deriving/instance-where/eval suites.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 13 `where`-clauses in `instance` bodies:
+- Bug discovered: `hk-desugar` didn't recurse into `instance-decl` method
+  bodies, so a `where`-form in an instance method survived to eval and hit
+  `eval: unknown node tag 'where'`. Fix: added an `instance-decl` case to
+  the desugarer that maps `hk-desugar` over the method-decls list. The
+  existing `fun-clause` branch then desugars each method body, including
+  the where → let lifting.
+- 4 tests in new `tests/instance-where.sx`: where-helper with literal
+  pattern matching, references reused multiple times, and multi-binding
+  where. Verified no regression in class.sx (14/14), deriving.sx (15/15),
+  desugar.sx (15/15).
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 12 conformance: uniquewords.hs (4/4) + setops.hs (8/8) → Phase 12 complete:
+- `program-uniquewords.sx`: `foldl Set.insert` over a word list, then check
+  `Set.size`/`member`. 4/4.
+- `program-setops.sx`: full set algebra — union/intersection/difference/
+  isSubsetOf with three sets s1, s2, s3 chosen so each operation has both a
+  positive and negative test. 8/8.
+- Both added to `PROGRAMS` in `conformance.sh`. Phase 12 fully complete.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 12 unit tests `tests/set.sx` (17/17):
+- 13 SX-level direct calls + 4 end-to-end via `import qualified Data.Set`.
+  Covers all the API + dedupe behavior. Suite is 17/17.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 12 module wiring: `import Data.Set`:
+- New `hk-bind-data-set!` registers `Set.empty/singleton/insert/delete/
+  member/size/null/union/intersection/difference/isSubsetOf` as Haskell
+  builtins.
+- Import handler now dispatches on modname: `Data.Map` → `hk-bind-data-map!`,
+  `Data.Set` → `hk-bind-data-set!`. Default alias is now derived from the
+  modname suffix instead of being hardcoded `Map` (was a bug for `Data.Set`).
+- `test.sh` and `conformance.sh` load `set.sx` after `map.sx`.
+- Verified `Set.size`, `Set.member`, `Set.union`, `Set.insert` from Haskell.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 12 Data.Set full API:
+- Added `from-list`/`union`/`intersection`/`difference`/`is-subset-of`/
+  `filter`/`map`/`foldr`/`foldl` — all delegate to the corresponding
+  `hk-map-*` helpers with the value side ignored. `union`/`intersection`
+  use `hk-map-union-with`/`hk-map-intersection-with` with a constant
+  unit-returning combine fn. Spot-check confirms set semantics: dedupe
+  on fromList, correct ⋃/∩/− and isSubsetOf.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 12 Data.Set skeleton (wraps Data.Map with unit values):
+- New `lib/haskell/set.sx`. `hk-set-empty/singleton/insert/delete/member/
+  size/null/to-list` all delegate to the corresponding `hk-map-*`. Storage
+  representation matches Map nodes; values are always `("Tuple")` (unit).
+  This trades a small per-node memory overhead for a one-line implementation
+  of every set primitive — full BST balancing comes for free. Spot-checked.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 11 conformance: wordfreq.hs (7/7) + mapgraph.hs (6/6) → Phase 11 complete:
+- Extended `hk-bind-data-map!` with `Map.insertWith`, `Map.adjust`, and
+  `Map.findWithDefault` so the conformance programs have what they need.
+- `program-wordfreq.sx`: word-frequency histogram, `foldl Map.insertWith Map.empty`.
+- `program-mapgraph.sx`: adjacency list, `Map.findWithDefault [] n g` for
+  default-empty neighbors.
+- Both added to `PROGRAMS` in `conformance.sh`. Phase 11 fully complete.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 11 unit tests `tests/map.sx` (26/26):
+- 22 SX-level direct calls (empty/singleton/insert/lookup/delete/member/
+  fromList+duplicates/toAscList/elems/unionWith/intersectionWith/difference/
+  foldlWithKey/mapWithKey/filterWithKey/adjust/insertWith/alter) plus 4
+  end-to-end via `import qualified Data.Map as Map`. Plan asked for ≥20.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 11 module wiring: `import Data.Map`:
+- Added `hk-bind-data-map!` helper in `eval.sx` that registers
+  `<alias>.empty/singleton/insert/lookup/member/size/null/delete` as Haskell
+  builtins. Default alias is `"Map"`.
+- New `:import` case in `hk-bind-decls!` dispatches to `hk-bind-data-map!`
+  when modname = `"Data.Map"`. Also fixed `hk-eval-program` to actually
+  process the imports list (was extracting only decls); now it calls
+  `hk-bind-decls!` once on imports, then once on decls.
+- `test.sh` and `conformance.sh` now load `lib/haskell/map.sx` after
+  `eval.sx` so the BST functions exist when the import handler binds.
+- Verified `import qualified Data.Map as Map` and `import Data.Map`
+  (default alias) resolve `Map.empty`, `Map.insert`, `Map.lookup`, `Map.size`,
+  `Map.member` correctly.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 11 updating (adjust/insertWith/insertWithKey/alter):
+- `adjust` recurses to find the key, replaces value with `f(v)`; no-op when
+  missing. `insertWith` and `insertWithKey` recurse with rebalance and use
+  `f new old` (or `f k new old`) when the key exists. `alter` is the most
+  general, implemented as `lookup → f → either delete or insert`.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 11 transforming (foldlWithKey/foldrWithKey/mapWithKey/filterWithKey):
+- Folds traverse in-order. `foldlWithKey f acc m` walks left → key/val → right
+  threading the accumulator, so left-folding `(\acc k v -> acc ++ k ++ v)` over
+  a 3-key map yields `"1a2b3c"`. `foldrWithKey` runs right → key/val → left so
+  the cons-style accumulator `(\k v acc -> k ++ v ++ acc)` produces the same
+  string.
+- `mapWithKey` rebuilds the tree node-by-node (no rebalancing needed — keys
+  unchanged so the existing structure stays valid). `filterWithKey` is a
+  `foldrWithKey` that re-inserts kept entries; rebalances via insert.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 11 combining (unionWith/intersectionWith/difference):
+- All three implemented via `reduce` over the smaller map's `to-asc-list`,
+  inserting / skipping into the result. Verified:
+  union with `(str a "+" b)` produces `b+B` for the shared key; intersection
+  with `(+)` over `[1→10,2→20] ⊓ [2→200,3→30]` yields `(2 220)`; difference
+  preserves `m1` keys absent from `m2`.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 11 bulk operations (fromList/toList/toAscList/keys/elems):
+- `hk-map-from-list` uses SX `reduce` — left-to-right, so duplicates resolve
+  with last-wins (matches GHC `fromList`). `to-asc-list` is in-order recursive
+  traversal returning `(list (list k v) ...)`. `to-list` aliases `to-asc-list`.
+  `keys` and `elems` are similar in-order extracts. All take SX-level pairs;
+  the Haskell-layer wiring (next iterations) translates Haskell cons + tuple
+  representations.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 11 core operations on `Data.Map` BST:
+- Added `hk-map-singleton`, `hk-map-insert`, `hk-map-lookup`, `hk-map-delete`,
+  `hk-map-member`, `hk-map-null`. Insert recurses with `hk-map-balance` to
+  maintain weight invariants. Lookup returns `("Just" v)` / `("Nothing")` —
+  matches Haskell ADT layout. Delete uses a `hk-map-glue` helper that picks
+  the larger subtree and pulls its extreme element to the root, preserving
+  balance without imperative state. Spot-checked: insert+lookup hit/miss,
+  member, delete root with successor pulled from right.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 11 BST skeleton in `lib/haskell/map.sx`:
+- Adams-style weight-balanced tree: node = `("Map-Node" k v l r size)`,
+  empty = `("Map-Empty")`. delta=3 / gamma=2 ratios. Implemented constructors
+  + accessors + the four rotations (single-l, single-r, double-l, double-r)
+  + `hk-map-balance` smart constructor that picks the rotation. Spot-checked
+  with eval calls; user-facing operations (insert/lookup/etc.) come next.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 10 conformance: statistics.hs (5/5) + newton.hs (5/5) → Phase 10 complete:
+- `program-statistics.sx`: mean / variance / stdDev on a [Double], exercising
+  `sum`, `map`, `fromIntegral`, `/`, `sqrt`. 5/5.
+- `program-newton.sx`: Newton's method for sqrt, exercising `abs`, `/`, `*`,
+  recursion termination on tolerance 0.0001, and `(<)` to assert convergence
+  to within 0.001 of the true value. 5/5.
+- Both added to `PROGRAMS` in `conformance.sh`. Phase 10 fully complete.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 10 numerics test file checkbox (filename divergence):
+- Plan called for `lib/haskell/tests/numeric.sx`. From the very first Phase 10
+  iteration I created `numerics.sx` (plural) and have been growing it. Now
+  at 37/37 — already covers all the categories the plan listed, well past the
+  ≥15 minimum. Ticked the box; left a note about the filename divergence.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 10 Floating stub (pi, exp, log, sin, cos, **):
+- pi as a number constant; exp/log/sin/cos as builtins thunking through to SX
+  primitives. `(**)` added as a binop case in `hk-binop` mapping to SX `pow`.
+  6 new tests in `numerics.sx` (now 37/37). `2 ** 10 = 1024`, `log (exp 5) = 5`,
+  `sin 0 = 0`, `cos 0 = 1`, `pi ≈ 3.14159`, `exp 0 = 1`.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 10 Fractional stub (recip, fromRational):
+- `(/)` already a binop. Added `recip` and `fromRational` as builtins
+  post-prelude. 3 new tests in `numerics.sx` (now 31/31).
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 10 math builtins (sqrt/floor/ceiling/round/truncate):
+- Inserted in the post-prelude `begin` block so they override the prelude's
+  identity stubs. `ceiling` is the only one needing a definition (SX doesn't
+  ship one — derived from `floor`). `sqrt`, `floor`, `round`, `truncate`
+  thunk through to SX primitives. 6 new tests in `numerics.sx` (now 28/28).
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 10 Float display through `hk-show-val`:
+- Added `hk-show-num` and `hk-show-float-sci` helpers in `eval.sx`. Number
+  formatting: `integer?` → decimal (covers all whole-valued numbers, both ints
+  and whole floats); else if `|n| ∉ [0.1, 10^7)` → scientific (`1.0e-3`); else
+  → decimal with `.0` suffix.
+- `show 3.14` = `"3.14"`, `show 0.001` = `"1.0e-3"`, `show -3.14` = `"-3.14"`.
+- Limit: `show 1.0e10` renders as `"10000000000"` instead of `"1.0e10"` —
+  Haskell distinguishes `42` from `42.0` via type, we don't. Documented.
+- 4 new tests in `numerics.sx`. Suite is now 22/22.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 10 `toInteger` / `fromInteger` verified (prelude identities):
+- Both already declared as `x = x` in `hk-prelude-src`. Added 4 tests in
+  `numerics.sx` (positive, identity round-trip, negative-via-negate, fromInteger
+  smoke). Suite now 18/18.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 10 `fromIntegral` verified (already an identity in prelude):
+- Pre-existing `fromIntegral x = x` line in `hk-prelude-src` was already
+  correct — all numbers share one SX type, so the identity implementation is
+  exactly what the plan asked for. Added 4 tests in `numerics.sx` covering:
+  positive int, negative int, mixed-arithmetic, and `map fromIntegral [1,2,3]`.
+  Suite is now 14/14.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 10 large-integer audit (numerics.sx 10/10):
+- Investigated SX number behavior in Haskell context. Findings:
+    • Raw SX `*`, `+`, etc. on two ints stay exact up to ±2^62 (~4.6e18).
+    • The Haskell tokenizer parses any integer literal > 2^53 (~9e15) as
+      a float — so factorial 19 already drifts even though int63 would fit.
+    • Once any operand is float, ops promote and decimal precision is lost.
+    • `Int` and `Integer` both currently map to SX number — no arbitrary
+      precision yet; documented as known limitation.
+- New `tests/numerics.sx` (10 tests): factorials up to 18, products near
+  10^18 (still match via SX's permissive numeric equality), pow 2^62
+  boundary, show/decimal display. Header comment captures the practical
+  limit.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 9 conformance: `partial.hs` (7/7) → Phase 9 complete:
+- New `tests/program-partial.sx` exercising `head []`, `tail []`,
+  `fromJust Nothing`, `undefined`, and user `error` from inside a `do` block;
+  verifies the error message lands in `hk-run-io`'s `io-lines`. Also a happy-
+  path test (`head [42] = 42`) and a "putStrLn before error preserves prior
+  output, never reaches subsequent action" test.
+- Added `partial` to `PROGRAMS` in `conformance.sh`. Phase 9 done.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 9 `tests/errors.sx` (14/14):
+- New file with 14 tests covering: error w/ literal + computed message; error
+  in `if` branch (laziness boundary); undefined via direct + forcing-via-
+  arithmetic + lazy-discard; partial functions head/tail/fromJust; head/tail
+  still working on non-empty input; hk-run-io's caught error landing in
+  io-lines; putStrLn-before-error preserving prior output; hk-test-error
+  substring match. Spec called for ≥10.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 9 `hk-test-error` helper in testlib.sx:
+- New 0-arity-thunk-based assertion: `(hk-test-error name thunk substr)` —
+  evaluates `(thunk)`, expects an exception, checks `index-of` for the given
+  substring in the caught (string-coerced) value. Increments `hk-test-pass` on
+  match, otherwise records into `hk-test-fails` with descriptive expected.
+- Added 2 quick uses to `tests/eval.sx` (error and head []). Suite now 66/66.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 9 `hk-run-io` catches errors, appends to io-lines:
+- Wrapped both `hk-run-io` and `hk-run-io-with-input` in `(guard (e (true …)))`
+  that appends the caught exception to `hk-io-lines`. Also added `hk-deep-force`
+  inside the guard so `main`'s thunk actually evaluates (post-lazy-CAFs change
+  it was a thunk, was previously not forced — IO actions never fired in
+  programs that returned the thunk to `hk-run-io`). Test suites now see error
+  output as the last line of `hk-io-lines` instead of crashing.
+- Updated one io-input test that used an outer `guard` to look for
+  `"file not found"` in the io-lines string instead.
+- Verified across program-io (10/10), io-input (11/11), program-fizzbuzz
+  (12/12), program-calculator (5/5), program-roman (14/14), program-wordcount
+  (10/10), program-showadt (5/5), program-showio (5/5), eval.sx (64/64).
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 9 partial functions emit proper error messages:
+- Added empty-list catch clauses to `head`, `tail` in the prelude. Added
+  `fromJust`, `fromMaybe`, `isJust`, `isNothing` (the last three were missing).
+  `fromJust Nothing` raises `"Maybe.fromJust: Nothing"`. Multi-clause dispatch
+  tries the constructor pattern first, then falls through to the empty-list /
+  Nothing error clause.
+- 5 new tests in `tests/eval.sx`. Suite is 64/64. Verified no regressions in
+  match, stdlib, fib, quicksort, program-maybe.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 9 `undefined = error "Prelude.undefined"` + lazy CAFs:
+- Added `undefined = error "Prelude.undefined"` to `hk-prelude-src`. Without
+  any other change this raised at prelude-load time because `hk-bind-decls!`
+  was eagerly evaluating zero-arity definitions (CAFs). Switched the CAF
+  binding from `(hk-eval body env)` to `(hk-mk-thunk body env)` — closer to
+  Haskell semantics: CAFs are not forced until first use.
+- The lazy-CAF change is a small but principled correctness fix; verified
+  no regressions across program-fib (uses `fibs`), program-sieve, primes,
+  infinite, seq, stdlib, class, do-io, quicksort.
+- 2 new tests in `tests/eval.sx` (raises with the right message; `undefined`
+  doesn't fire when not forced via `if True then 42 else undefined`). 59/59.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 9 `error :: String -> a` raises with `hk-error:` prefix:
+- Pre-existing `error` builtin was raising `"*** Exception: <msg>"` (GHC
+  console convention). Renamed prefix to `"hk-error: "` so the wrap-around
+  string SX's `apply` produces (`"Unhandled exception: \"hk-error: ...\""`)
+  contains a stable, searchable tag.
+- Investigation confirmed that the plan's intended `(raise (list "hk-error" msg))`
+  format is mangled by SX `apply` to a string. Plan note added; tests use
+  `index-of` substring matching against the wrapped string.
+- 2 new tests in `tests/eval.sx` (string and computed-message form). Suite
+  is 57/57. Other test suites unchanged (match 31/31, stdlib 48/48, derive
+  15/15, do-io 16/16, class 14/14).
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 8 conformance: `showadt.hs` + `showio.hs` (both 5/5):
+- `program-showadt.sx`: `deriving (Show)` on the classic `Expr = Lit | Add | Mul`
+  recursive ADT; tests `print` on three nested expressions and inline `show`
+  spot-checks (negative literal wrapped in parens; fully nested Mul of Adds).
+- `program-showio.sx`: `print` on Int, Bool, list, tuple, Maybe, String, ADT
+  inside a `do` block; verifies one io-line per `print`.
+- Both added to `PROGRAMS` in `conformance.sh`. Phase 8 conformance complete.
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 8 `tests/show.sx` expanded to full audit coverage (26/26):
+- 16 new direct `show` tests: Int (positive + negative), Bool (T/F), String,
+  list of Int, empty list, pair tuple, triple tuple, Maybe Nothing, Maybe Just,
+  nested Just (paren wrapping), Just (negate 3) (negative wrapping), nullary
+  ADT, multi-constructor ADT with args, list of Maybe.
+- `show ([] :: [Int])` would be the natural empty-list test but our parser
+  doesn't yet support type ascription; used `show (drop 5 [1,2,3])` instead.
+  Char `'a'` → `"'a'"` deferred to Char-tagging design (Char = Int currently
+  yields `"97"`).
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 8 `Read` class stub (`reads`, `readsPrec`, `read`):
+- Three lines added to `hk-prelude-src`: `reads s = []`, `readsPrec _ s = reads s`,
+  `read s = fst (head (reads s))`. The stubs let user code that mentions
+  `reads`/`readsPrec` parse and run; calls succeed by always returning an empty
+  parse list. `read` will throw a pattern-match failure at runtime — fine until
+  Phase 9 `error` lands. No real parser needed per the plan.
+- 3 new tests in `tests/show.sx` (now 10/10).
+
+**2026-05-07** — Phase 8 `showsPrec` / `showParen` / `shows` / `showString` stubs:
+- Added 5 lines to `hk-prelude-src`. `shows x s = show x ++ s`,
+  `showString prefix rest = prefix ++ rest`, `showParen True p s = "(" ++ p (")" ++ s)`,
+  `showParen False p s = p s`, `showsPrec _ x s = show x ++ s`.
+- These let hand-written `Show` instances using `showsPrec`/`showParen` parse
+  and run; the precedence arg is ignored (we always defer to `show`'s built-in
+  precedence handling), but call shapes match Haskell 98 so user code compiles.
+- New `lib/haskell/tests/show.sx` (7 tests). The file is intended to grow to
+  ≥12 covering the full audit (Phase 8 ☐).
+- Function composition `.` is not yet bound; tests use manual composition via
+  let-binding. Address in a later iteration.
+
+**2026-05-06** — Phase 8 `deriving Show` nested constructor parens verified:
+- The Phase 8 audit's precedence-based `hk-show-prec` already does the right
+  thing for `deriving Show`: each constructor arg is shown at prec 11, so any
+  inner constructor with args (or any negative number) gets parenthesised, while
+  nullary constructors and lists/tuples (whose own bracketing is unambiguous)
+  do not. Multi-constructor ADTs (e.g. `Tree = Leaf | Node …`) handled.
+  Records deferred to Phase 14.
+- 4 new tests in `tests/deriving.sx` exercising nested ADT + Maybe-Maybe +
+  negative-arg + list-arg cases; suite is 15/15.
+
+**2026-05-06** — Phase 8 `print` is `putStrLn (show x)` in prelude:
+- Added `print x = putStrLn (show x)` to `hk-prelude-src` and removed the
+  standalone `print` builtin. `print` now resolves through the Haskell-level
+  Prelude path; lazy reference resolution handles the forward call to
+  `putStrLn` (registered after the prelude loads). `show` already calls
+  `hk-show-val` from the Phase 8 audit. do-io / program-fib / program-fizzbuzz
+  remain green.
+
+**2026-05-06** — Phase 8 audit: `hk-show-val` matches Haskell 98 format:
+- `eval.sx`: introduced `hk-show-prec v p` with precedence-based parens.
+  Top-level `show (Just 3)` = `"Just 3"` (no parens); nested `show (Just (Just 3))`
+  = `"Just (Just 3)"` (inner wrapped because called with prec ≥ 11). Negative
+  ints wrapped in parens at high prec for `show (Just (negate 1))` correctness.
+- List/tuple separators changed from `", "` to `","` to match GHC.
+- `hk-show-val` is now a thin shim: `(hk-show-prec v 0)`.
+- Updated `tests/deriving.sx` (3 tests) and `tests/stdlib.sx` (7 tests) to the
+  new format. `Char` single-quote output and string escape for `\n`/`\t`
+  deferred — Char = Int representation prevents disambiguation in show.
+
+**2026-05-06** — Phase 7 conformance complete (runlength-str.hs) + `++` thunk fix:
+- New `lib/haskell/tests/program-runlength-str.sx` (9 tests). Exercises `(x:xs)`
+  pattern matching over Strings, `span` over a string view, tuple `(Int, Char)`
+  construction and `((n,c):rest)` destructuring, `++` between cons spines.
+- `runlength-str` added to `PROGRAMS` in `conformance.sh`.
+- `eval.sx`: `hk-list-append` now `(hk-force a)` on entry. Pre-existing latent
+  bug — when a cons's tail was a thunk (e.g. from the `:` operator inside a
+  recursive Haskell function like `replicateRL n c = c : replicateRL (n-1) c`),
+  the recursion `(hk-list-append (nth a 2) b)` saw a dict, not a list, and
+  raised `"++: not a list"`. Quicksort masked this by chaining `[x]` literals
+  whose tails are forced `("[]")` cells. Forcing in `hk-list-append` is
+  load-bearing for any `++` over a recursively-built spine.
+
+**2026-05-06** — Phase 7 conformance (caesar.hs):
+- New `lib/haskell/tests/program-caesar.sx` (8 tests). Caesar cipher exercising
+  `chr`, `ord`, `isUpper`, `isLower`, `mod`, `map`, and `(x:xs)` pattern matching
+  over native String values via the Phase 7 string-view path. Adapted from
+  https://rosettacode.org/wiki/Caesar_cipher#Haskell.
+- `caesar` added to `PROGRAMS` in `lib/haskell/conformance.sh`. Suite isolated:
+  8/8 passing. Note: `else chr c` in `shift` keeps the char-as-string output type
+  consistent with the alpha branches (pattern bind on a string view yields an int).
+
+**2026-05-06** — Phase 7 complete (string-view O(1) head/tail + `++` native concat):
+- `runtime.sx`: added `hk-str?`, `hk-str-head`, `hk-str-tail`, `hk-str-null?`.
+  String views are `{:hk-str buf :hk-off n}` dicts; native SX strings satisfy the
+  predicate with implicit offset 0. All helpers are O(1) via `char-at` / `string-length`.
+- `eval.sx`: added `chr` (int → single-char string via `char-from-code`), `toUpper`,
+  `toLower` (ASCII-range arithmetic). Fixed `ord` and all char predicates (`isAlpha`,
+  `isAlphaNum`, `isDigit`, `isSpace`, `isUpper`, `isLower`, `digitToInt`) to accept
+  integers from string-view decomposition (not only single-char strings).
+- `match.sx`: cons-pattern `":"` now checks `hk-str?` before the tagged-list path,
+  decomposing to `(hk-str-head, hk-str-tail)`. Empty-list pattern (`p-list []`) also
+  accepts `hk-str-null?` values. `hk-match-list-pat` updated to traverse string views
+  element-by-element.
+- `runtime.sx`: added `hk-str-to-native` (converts view dict to native string via reduce+char-at).
+- `eval.sx`: `hk-list-append` now checks `hk-str?` first; converts both operands via
+  `hk-str-to-native` before native `str` concat. String `++` String no longer builds
+  a cons spine.
+- 35 new tests in `lib/haskell/tests/string-char.sx` (35/35 passing).
+- Full suite: 810/810 tests, 0 regressions (was 775).

+# JIT Cache Architecture — Tiered + LRU + Reset API
+
+## Problem statement
+
+The OCaml WASM kernel JIT-compiles every lambda body on first call and caches
+the resulting `vm_closure` in a mutable slot on the lambda itself
+(`Lambda.l_compiled`, `Component.c_compiled`, `Island.i_compiled`). Cache
+growth is unbounded — there is no eviction, no threshold, no reset.
+
+**Where it bites today:** the HS conformance test harness compiles ~3000
+distinct one-shot HS source strings via `eval-hs` in a single process. Each
+compilation creates a fresh lambda → fresh `vm_closure`. After ~500 tests,
+allocation pressure / GC overhead dominates and tests that take 200ms in
+isolation start taking 30s.
+
+**Where it would bite in production:** a long-lived process that accepts
+arbitrary user-supplied SX (a scripting plugin host, a REPL service, an
+edge function with cold lambdas per request, an SPA visiting thousands of
+distinct routes). Today's SX apps don't hit this because they compile a
+fixed component set at boot and reuse it; the cache reaches steady state.
+
+## Architecture
+
+Three coordinated mechanisms, deployed in order:
+
+### 1. Tiered compilation — "filter what enters the cache"
+
+Most lambdas in our test harness are call-once-and-discard. They consume
+JIT compilation cost, occupy cache space, and never amortize. Solution:
+don't JIT until a lambda has been called K times.
+
+**OCaml changes:**
+
+```ocaml
+(* sx_types.ml *)
+type lambda = {
+  ...
+  mutable l_compiled  : vm_closure option;  (* unchanged *)
+  mutable l_call_count: int;                (* NEW *)
+}
+```
+
+```ocaml
+(* sx_vm.ml — in cek_call_or_suspend *)
+let jit_threshold = ref 4
+
+let maybe_jit lam =
+  match lam.l_compiled with
+  | Some _ -> ()  (* already compiled *)
+  | None ->
+    lam.l_call_count <- lam.l_call_count + 1;
+    if lam.l_call_count >= !jit_threshold then
+      lam.l_compiled <- !jit_compile_ref lam globals
+```
+
+**Tunable via primitive:** `(jit-set-threshold! N)` (default 4; 1 = old
+behavior; ∞ = disable JIT).
+
+**Expected impact:**
+- Cold lambdas (test harness, eval-hs throwaways) never enter the cache.
+- Hot lambdas (component renders, event handlers) hit the threshold within
+  a handful of calls and get full JIT speed.
+- Eliminates the test-harness pathology entirely without touching cache size.
+
+### 2. LRU eviction — "bound memory regardless of input"
+
+Even with tiered compilation, a long-lived process eventually compiles
+enough hot lambdas to exceed memory budget. Pure LRU eviction with a
+fixed budget gives a predictable ceiling.
+
+**OCaml changes:**
+
+```ocaml
+(* sx_jit_cache.ml — NEW module *)
+type cache_entry = {
+  closure : vm_closure;
+  mutable last_used : int;  (* generation counter *)
+  mutable pinned : bool;    (* hot-path opt-out *)
+}
+
+let cache : (int, cache_entry) Hashtbl.t = Hashtbl.create 256
+let mutable cache_budget = 5000   (* lambdas, not bytes — easy to reason about *)
+let mutable generation = 0
+
+let lookup lambda_id = ...
+let insert lambda_id closure = 
+  generation <- generation + 1;
+  Hashtbl.add cache lambda_id { closure; last_used = generation; pinned = false };
+  if Hashtbl.length cache > cache_budget then evict_oldest ()
+let pin lambda_id = ...
+```
+
+**Migration:** `Lambda.l_compiled` stops being a direct slot; it becomes
+a lookup against the central cache via `l_id` (each lambda already has
+a unique identity). Failed lookups fall through to the interpreter — same
+correctness semantics, just slower for evicted entries.
+
+**Tunable:** `(jit-set-budget! N)` (default 5000; 0 = disable cache).
+
+**Pinning:** `(jit-pin! 'fn-name)` keeps a function from ever being evicted.
+Use for stdlib helpers, hot rendering paths.
+
+### 3. Manual reset API — "escape hatch for app checkpoints"
+
+Some app patterns know exactly when their cache should be flushed:
+- A web server between request batches
+- An SPA on logout / navigation
+- A test runner between batches (yes, even with #1 + #2)
+- A REPL on `:reset`
+
+**Primitives:**
+
+| Primitive | Behavior |
+|-----------|----------|
+| `(jit-reset!)` | Drop all cache entries. Hot paths re-JIT on next call. |
+| `(jit-clear-cold!)` | Drop only entries that haven't been used in N generations. |
+| `(jit-stats)` | Returns dict: `{:size N :budget M :hits H :misses I :evictions E}`. |
+| `(jit-set-threshold! N)` | Raise/lower compilation threshold at runtime. |
+| `(jit-set-budget! N)` | Raise/lower cache size budget. |
+| `(jit-pin! sym)` | Pin a named function against eviction. |
+| `(jit-unpin! sym)` | Unpin. |
+
+All zero-cost when not called — just a few atomic counter increments.
+
+## Where it lives
+
+The JIT is host-specific (OCaml WASM kernel). The plan splits across
+three layers:
+
+```
+hosts/ocaml/lib/sx_jit_cache.ml      NEW — cache datastructure + LRU
+hosts/ocaml/lib/sx_vm.ml             Modified — call counter, lookup integration
+hosts/ocaml/lib/sx_types.ml          Modified — l_call_count field, l_id is global
+hosts/ocaml/lib/sx_primitives.ml     Modified — register jit-* primitives
+spec/primitives.sx                   Modified — declarative spec for jit-* primitives
+lib/jit.sx                            NEW — SX-level helpers + macros
+```
+
+**lib/jit.sx** would contain:
+
+```lisp
+;; Convenience: temporarily change threshold
+(define-macro (with-jit-threshold n & body)
+  `(let ((__old (jit-stats)))
+     (jit-set-threshold! ,n)
+     (let ((__r (do ,@body))) (jit-set-threshold! (get __old :threshold)) __r)))
+
+;; Convenience: drop cache before/after a block
+(define-macro (with-fresh-jit & body)
+  `(let ((__r (do (jit-reset!) ,@body))) (jit-reset!) __r))
+
+;; Monitoring helper for dev mode
+(define jit-report
+  (fn ()
+    (let ((s (jit-stats)))
+      (str "jit: " (get s :size) "/" (get s :budget) " entries, "
+           (get s :hits) " hits / " (get s :misses) " misses ("
+           (* 100 (/ (get s :hits) (max 1 (+ (get s :hits) (get s :misses)))))
+           "%)"))))
+```
+
+This is shared SX — every host language (HS, Common Lisp, Erlang, etc.)
+gets the same API for free.
+
+## Rollout
+
+**Phase 1: Tiered compilation (1-2 days)**
+- Add `l_call_count` to lambda type
+- Wire counter increment in `cek_call_or_suspend`
+- Add `jit-set-threshold!` primitive
+- Default threshold = 1 (no change in behavior)
+- Bump default to 4 once test suite confirms stability
+- Verify: HS conformance full-suite run completes without JIT saturation
+
+**Phase 2: LRU cache (3-5 days)**
+- Extract `Lambda.l_compiled` into central `sx_jit_cache.ml`
+- Add `l_id : int` (global, monotonic) to lambda type
+- Migrate all `vm_closure` accessors to go through cache
+- Add `jit-set-budget!`, `jit-pin!`, `jit-unpin!` primitives
+- Verify: same full-suite run with budget=100 — cache hit/miss ratio reasonable
+
+**Phase 3: Reset API + monitoring (1 day)**
+- Add `jit-reset!`, `jit-clear-cold!`, `jit-stats` primitives
+- Add `lib/jit.sx` SX-level wrappers
+- Integrate into HS test runner: call `jit-reset!` between batches as belt-and-suspenders
+- Document in CLAUDE.md / migration notes
+
+**Phase 4: Production hardening (incremental)**
+- Memory pressure hooks (browser `performance.measureUserAgentSpecificMemory`)
+- Bytecode interning (dedupe identical `vm_closure` bodies across lambdas)
+- Generational sweep on idle (browser `requestIdleCallback`)
+- These are nice-to-have, not required for correctness.
+
+## Testing
+
+Each phase ships with:
+- Unit tests in `spec/tests/test-jit-cache.sx` (new file)
+- Conformance must remain 100% per-suite
+- Wall-clock benchmark: full HS suite single-process before/after
+
+Phase 1 acceptance criterion: HS conformance suite completes in single
+process under 10 minutes wall time.
+
+Phase 2 acceptance: same as 1 but with budget=500. Cache size stays
+bounded throughout the run; hit rate >90% on hot paths.
+
+Phase 3 acceptance: `jit-reset!` between batches reduces test-harness
+wall time by >50% vs no reset (because hot stdlib stays cached, but
+test-specific lambdas don't accumulate).
+
+## Why this order
+
+Tiered compilation is the highest-leverage change — it solves the
+test-harness problem at the source (most lambdas never enter the
+cache) without touching cache machinery. LRU is the safety net
+(unbounded growth still possible if every lambda is hot, e.g., huge
+dynamic component graph). Reset is the escape hatch for situations
+neither mechanism can handle (logout, hard memory pressure, app
+restart without process restart).
+
+Doing them in reverse would invert the value — reset alone fixes
+nothing without app-level integration, and LRU without tiered
+compilation churns the cache constantly on cold lambdas.

+# JIT performance regression — substrate slowdown after architecture merge
+
+A recent merge into `architecture` made test runs roughly **30× slower** across guest languages — Tcl's `lib/tcl/test.sh` had to bump its watchdog from **180s → 2400s**. The slowdown is observed under JIT-saturated test paths and affects every hosted language, not just Tcl. This is a substrate-level perf regression in the SX evaluator, hosts, or VM, and fixing it benefits every loop simultaneously.
+
+The candidate-cause set is narrow because we know the rough timeframe: the regression appeared after one of the architecture-merge waves that brought R7RS Steps 4–6, IO suspension, JIT changes, and the env-as-value Phase 4 work onto `architecture`. Bisecting against a known-fast pre-merge commit will pin it.
+
+**Branch:** `architecture` (substrate work). Touches `spec/`, `hosts/ocaml/`, `hosts/javascript/`. Do **not** push to `main` without explicit instruction.
+
+**North star:** restore Tcl's `test.sh` to the pre-regression deadline (≤180s) **without losing JIT correctness** (current scoreboards must equal baseline). Document the regression mechanism so it doesn't recur silently.
+
+## Goals
+
+1. **Quantify** the regression with a per-guest perf table (before/after totals + per-suite worst case).
+2. **Bisect** to find the offending commit — narrow to a single substrate change.
+3. **Diagnose** the mechanism (JIT cache miss? env scan complexity? frame allocation? continuation snapshot?).
+4. **Fix** the root cause, not the symptom (do not just bump deadlines).
+5. **Verify** every guest's scoreboard stays at baseline; perf returns to within 1.5× of pre-regression.
+6. **Add a perf-regression alarm** so the next quadratic blow-up trips a check, not a watchdog.
+
+## Hypotheses (ranked)
+
+Each gets validated or eliminated in Phase 3.
+
+1. **env-as-value churn** — Phase 4 changed how environments propagate. If env representation moved from a shared structure to per-frame copies, every call now allocates O(env-size). Likely candidate given the timing and how broadly it affects all guests.
+2. **JIT cache miss / re-compile per call** — if the cache key for `jit_compile_comp` changed (e.g. now keys on env or call-site dict), the cache hit-rate may have collapsed. Symptom: every call recompiles. The 30× factor is consistent with going from "compile once" to "compile every call."
+3. **Frame snapshot deep-copy** — IO suspension (`perform`/`cek-resume`) requires snapshotting the CEK state. If the snapshot eagerly deep-copies frames or env on *every* perform — even ones that never resume — that's a real-cost regression for any test that uses guards/handlers heavily.
+4. **Lazy JIT bypassed** — `project_jit_compilation.md` notes "Lazy JIT implemented: lambda bodies compiled on first VM call, cached, failures sentinel-marked." If the failure sentinel is now triggered for inputs that previously cached, every call falls back to the tree-walk path. Inspect `project_jit_bytecode_bug.md` ("Compiled compiler helpers loop on complex nested ASTs") — the workaround `_jit_compiling guard` may have widened.
+5. **Type-check overhead** — strict-mode `value-matches-type?` calls. If strict mode is now on by default, every primitive call type-checks all args. Unlikely to give 30× but worth ruling out.
+6. **Frame representation: lists vs records** — `sx-improvements.md` Step 12 ("Frame records (CEK)") is open. If the recent merge moved partway between representations and now allocates extra tagged-list cells per frame, that's a constant-factor regression but probably not 30×.
+
+## Phases
+
+### Phase 1 — Reproduce + quantify
+
+- [ ] Pick the canonical workload: `lib/tcl/test.sh` is the known offender. Also run `lib/prolog/conformance.sh`, `lib/lua/test.sh`, `lib/haskell/conformance.sh`, `lib/erlang/conformance.sh` for cross-guest data.
+- [ ] Measure on current `architecture` HEAD: total wall-clock, per-suite worst case. Use `time bash lib/<guest>/...sh` and capture both numbers.
+- [ ] Find a known-fast pre-regression commit. Candidates: pre-merge of `architecture → loops/tcl` (commit `a32561a0` or earlier — check `git log --merges architecture`). Mark this `BASELINE_GOOD`.
+- [ ] Check out `BASELINE_GOOD` to a scratch worktree (`git worktree add /tmp/sx-perf-baseline <sha>`); rebuild `sx_server.exe`; re-run the same suites. Capture totals.
+- [ ] Build a perf table:
+
+  | Guest | Pre-regression total | Current total | Ratio | Pre-regression worst suite | Current worst suite |
+  |-------|----------------------|---------------|-------|----------------------------|---------------------|
+  | tcl | … | … | …× | … | … |
+  | prolog | … | … | …× | … | … |
+  | lua | … | … | …× | … | … |
+  | haskell | … | … | …× | … | … |
+  | erlang | … | … | …× | … | … |
+
+- [ ] If the ratio is uniform (~30× everywhere), it's a substrate-wide bug — fixing it once fixes everything. If it varies, a guest-specific path is implicated and the diagnosis branches.
+
+### Phase 2 — Bisect
+
+- [ ] `git bisect start architecture <BASELINE_GOOD>`.
+- [ ] Bisect script: rebuild `sx_server.exe` (`cd hosts/ocaml && dune build`), run `time bash lib/tcl/test.sh` with a tight 600s watchdog, mark commit good if total < 1.5× baseline, bad otherwise.
+- [ ] Skip merge commits (`git bisect skip`) when build fails because of an in-flight intermediate state.
+- [ ] Record the first-bad commit in this plan's Progress log with its short description.
+
+### Phase 3 — Diagnose
+
+For each surviving hypothesis after Phase 2, validate or eliminate:
+
+- [ ] **JIT cache miss check.** Add a counter in `hosts/ocaml/lib/sx_vm.ml` that increments on `jit_compile_comp` invocations. Run the offending suite. If the counter is >>1 per unique lambda, the cache is missing.
+- [ ] **Lazy JIT sentinel check.** Add logging when the `_jit_compiling` sentinel triggers / when a compiled function falls back to tree-walk. Quantify how often it happens vs the baseline.
+- [ ] **env-as-value allocation.** Use OCaml's `Gc.allocated_bytes` before and after a representative call (e.g. `(map (fn (x) (* x 2)) (list 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10))`). Compare allocation per call between baseline and current.
+- [ ] **Frame snapshot cost.** Profile a `perform`-heavy workload (e.g. Haskell IO tests). Compare time spent in snapshot/restore code paths.
+- [ ] **Strict mode.** Check whether strict mode flipped on by default; check `value-matches-type?` call frequency.
+
+Record findings in the Progress log per hypothesis (validated / eliminated / inconclusive).
+
+### Phase 4 — Fix
+
+The fix depends on the diagnosed cause; this section is filled in once Phase 3 lands. Constraints:
+
+- [ ] **Do not regress correctness.** Every guest scoreboard must stay at baseline before and after the fix. Regression of even 1 test means the fix is wrong.
+- [ ] **Prefer the minimal change.** If the fix is "stop deep-copying X on path Y," do exactly that; do not also restructure Z while you're there.
+- [ ] **Keep the hot path obvious.** If the fix introduces a fast path / slow path split, name them clearly and add a one-line comment explaining the invariant that picks one over the other.
+- [ ] **Do not roll back env-as-value, R7RS Step 4–6, or IO suspension wholesale.** Those are load-bearing changes; surgical fixes only.
+
+### Phase 5 — Verify
+
+- [ ] Re-run the perf table from Phase 1 on the fix. Target: each guest within 1.5× of pre-regression total.
+- [ ] Re-run every guest's conformance suite. Each must equal baseline (lib-guest's `lib/guest/baseline/<lang>.json` is the reference if Step 0 has run; otherwise compare to per-guest scoreboard.json).
+- [ ] Restore Tcl's `test.sh` watchdog from 2400s back to 180s. If it doesn't fit, the fix is incomplete.
+- [ ] Push to `architecture` only after both perf and correctness checks pass. Never push to `main`.
+
+### Phase 6 — Perf-regression alarm
+
+So the next quadratic blow-up doesn't hide behind a watchdog bump:
+
+- [x] Add a lightweight perf benchmark — `lib/perf-smoke.sx`. Four micro-benchmarks chosen for distinct substrate failure modes:
+  - `bench-fib`        — function-call dispatch (recursive arithmetic, fib(18))
+  - `bench-let-chain`  — env construction (deep let bindings × 1000)
+  - `bench-map-sq`     — HO-form dispatch + lambda creation (`map (fn (x) (* x x))` over 500 elems)
+  - `bench-tail-loop`  — TCO + primitive dispatch (5000-iteration tight loop)
+  Each emits its own elapsed-ms via `(clock-milliseconds)`. A warm-up pass populates JIT cache before the timed pass.
+- [x] Wire it into `scripts/sx-build-all.sh` as a post-step after the JS test suite. Failing the perf budget fails the whole build (hard fail, not log-line).
+- [x] Reference numbers + machine documented:
+
+#### Perf-smoke reference
+
+Reference numbers in `scripts/perf-smoke.sh` (`REF_FIB18=1216`, `REF_LET1000=194`, `REF_MAP500=21`, `REF_TAIL5000=430`, all milliseconds).
+
+These were measured on the **dev machine under typical concurrent-loop contention** (load avg ~9, 2 vCPU, 7.6 GiB RAM, OCaml 5.2.0, architecture HEAD `92f6f187`). They are the **minimum across 6 back-to-back runs**, i.e. closest to the substrate's true speed at that moment; transient contention spikes only inflate above this floor.
+
+The default budget multiplier is **5×** (`FACTOR=5`). Rationale: contention noise on this machine spans ~1–2× of min, so 5× catches a real ≥5× substrate regression without false-alarming on contention. Tighter (`FACTOR=2` or `FACTOR=3`) is appropriate for a quiet CI machine; raise it (`FACTOR=10`) for measuring on a heavily oversubscribed host.
+
+To update the reference (after an intentional substrate change like a JIT improvement, or when moving machines):
+```bash
+bash scripts/perf-smoke.sh --update   # rewrites REF_* in this script
+```
+Commit the diff with a one-line note explaining what changed.
+
+The signal is *change*, not absolute number — a substrate regression manifests as multiple benchmarks each crossing the 5× line in the same run, which is what fails the build.
+
+## Ground rules
+
+- **Branch:** `architecture`. Commit locally. **Never push to `main`.** Push to `architecture` only after Phase 5 passes.
+- **Scope:** `spec/`, `hosts/ocaml/`, `hosts/javascript/`, `lib/tcl/test.sh` (deadline restoration only), `plans/jit-perf-regression.md`. Do not touch `lib/<guest>/` runtime files except for the deadline restoration in tcl. The fix is substrate-level; if a guest needs a workaround, document it but do not patch it from this plan.
+- **SX files:** `sx-tree` MCP tools only. `sx_validate` after every edit.
+- **OCaml build:** `sx_build target="ocaml"` MCP tool, never raw `dune` (except inside the bisect script — bisecting needs raw build for speed).
+- **Do not touch any active loop's worktree.** lib-guest, minikanren, and any other loops in flight are already busy. If a loop's worktree needs a perf rebuild, restart it after the fix lands.
+- **Pause loops if needed.** If the perf investigation needs the host machine quiet (profiling, repeated `time` runs), stop running loops first — `tmux send-keys -t <session> C-c`, then resume after.

+### 2026-05-08 — Phase 1 reproduce + quantify
+
+Worktree: `/root/rose-ash-bugs/jit-perf` at `bugs/jit-perf` = `1eb9d0f8` (architecture@1eb9d0f8).
+Baseline worktree: `/tmp/sx-perf-baseline` at `83dbb595` (loops/tcl Phase 4 — last commit before `a32561a0 merge: architecture → loops/tcl — R7RS, JIT, env-as-value`). Fresh `dune build bin/sx_server.exe` in each.
+
+Machine state during measurement: load avg 19–23 on 2 CPUs, ~2 GB free RAM, 3.6 GB swap used. Three other loops (minikanren, ocaml, datalog) were running per the brief; live `ps` also shows a separate haskell loop in `/root/rose-ash-loops/haskell` and a js conformance loop in `/root/rose-ash`. Wall-time numbers are inflated 4–5× by contention; user-time is the more comparable signal.
+
+#### Current state (architecture HEAD @ 1eb9d0f8)

+| lua `lib/lua/test.sh` | ✓ pass | 45.9s | 4.4s | 185/185 |
+| erlang `lib/erlang/conformance.sh` | ✗ **0 tests captured** | 2m1s | 18.1s | server hit internal `timeout 120` — no `(ok-len …)` markers parsed, scoreboard wrote 0/0 |
+| prolog `lib/prolog/conformance.sh` | ✗ **OOM-killed (137)** | 6m2s | — | bash parent killed by kernel OOM partway through suite chain |
+| haskell `lib/haskell/conformance.sh` | ✗ **terminated** | 29m59s | 1m57s | run never completed; output file just `Terminated`, no scoreboard. (Concurrent haskell loop was running same suites in parallel on same machine — added contention, but still indicative.) |
+
+Worst suite per guest (current):
+- tcl: idiom (59 tests, the longest-running suite); test count alone doesn't pinpoint a specific outlier — wall time is dominated by the cumulative epoch chain
+- lua: only one suite; n/a
+- erlang: every suite — server times out before any suite completes
+- prolog: at least one of the 29 suites blows memory (likely a JIT-heavy one — needs Phase 3 to confirm)
+- haskell: `program-fib` etc. — each 120 s suite-budget likely exhausted by cumulative load + per-program eval
+
+Sanity check `lib/tcl/conformance.sh` (different from test.sh — 4 .tcl programs): 11.7s, 3/4 PASS, 1 FAIL `event-loop` ("expected: done, got: <empty>"). The failure looks like a pre-existing (unrelated) bug rather than a perf regression — the program returns no output, not late output.

+#### Cross-guest perf table
+
+| Guest | Baseline user (per test) | Current user (per test) | Ratio (user) | Status under same workload |
+|-------|--------------------------|-------------------------|--------------|-----------------------------|
+| tcl `test.sh` | 19.1s / 342 = **55.8 ms** | 17.5s / 376 = **46.5 ms** | **0.83×** (slightly faster) | both pass |
+| lua `test.sh` | 2.7s / 157 = **17.2 ms** | 4.4s / 185 = **23.8 ms** | **1.38×** | both pass |
+| prolog parse+unify | 0.32s / 72 = **4.4 ms** | 0.26s / 72 = **3.6 ms** | **0.82×** | both pass |
+| haskell parser-only | 0.4s / 43 = **9.3 ms** | (subset not runnable in isolation; full conformance hangs) | n/a | n/a |
+
+#### Conclusion — premise check
+
+**The 30× uniform slowdown the plan describes is not visible in the canonical workloads I can measure on both ends of the bisect range.** Per-test user time is *not* 30× worse on architecture HEAD vs `83dbb595`:
+
+- tcl `test.sh` per-test user time: 55.8 ms → 46.5 ms (**slightly faster**, well within noise)
+- lua `test.sh` per-test user time: 17.2 ms → 23.8 ms (**1.4×**)
+- prolog parse+unify: **0.82×** (slightly faster)
+
+What *is* clearly broken on current is the **large multi-suite conformance scripts** for erlang/prolog/haskell:
+- erlang's 9 suites hit the 120 s server-side `timeout` before producing a single `(ok-len)` marker
+- prolog's 29-suite chain triggers an OOM kill
+- haskell's 18-suite + 156-program chain runs >30 min without completing
+
+These three failures all share a profile: **long single-process epoch chains that exercise progressively more JIT compilation and accumulate state**. That matches Hypothesis 2 (JIT cache miss / re-compile per call → cumulative O(n²)-ish behaviour) and/or Hypothesis 1 (env-as-value churn — the per-call cost is small but compounds across thousands of tests in one process). It does *not* match a uniform per-call 30× slowdown.
+
+The Tcl `test.sh` watchdog bumps in the source history (`timeout 90` → 180 → 1200 → 2400) actually correlate with **content growth + accumulated cost**, not just per-call regression: the 180→1200 bump landed at `be820d03 tcl: Phase 5 channel I/O`, just after `a32561a0` brought R7RS+JIT+env-as-value into loops/tcl, but the test count was also rising sharply across these phases.
+
+#### Open question for the user before Phase 2
+
+The framing in the plan's lead — "30× slower across guest languages" with Tcl's `test.sh` as the canonical offender — does not match what I'm seeing for `tcl test.sh` itself (current user-time is *equal-or-better* than pre-substrate-merge baseline). Before kicking off the heavy-compute Phase 2 bisect across architecture, I want to confirm:
+
+1. Should the bisect target the **erlang/prolog/haskell large-conformance failure mode** (long chain, accumulated JIT state) rather than `tcl test.sh` wall-time? That's where the regression is unambiguous.
+2. If the answer is yes, the bisect predicate needs to be re-defined: not "tcl total < 1.5× baseline" but something like "erlang conformance.sh produces *any* (ok-len) markers within 120 s" or "prolog conformance.sh completes without OOM".
+3. Is it worth pausing minikanren / ocaml / datalog loops for Phase 2 — the bisect needs ~15 build+run cycles and contention currently roughly 4–5×s the wall-time floor.
+
+Stopping here per the brief. Awaiting go-ahead before starting Phase 2.
+
+Artefacts: timing logs in `/tmp/jit-perf-results/{current,baseline}-*.txt`. Baseline worktree at `/tmp/sx-perf-baseline` (still in place). Tcl `test.sh` internal timeout in baseline worktree was bumped 180→1200 to let it complete on the contended machine (only used for measurement; not committed).
+
+#### Phase 1 follow-up — quiet-machine re-measurement
+
+After Phase 1 above, paused all other tmux sessions (`apl`, `datalog`, `js`, `minikanren`, `ocaml`, `sx-haskell`, `sx-hs-f`, `sx-loops`) via `tmux send-keys C-c` to remove contention noise, then re-ran all five guests on the same architecture HEAD `1eb9d0f8` build.
+
+| Guest | Wall | User | Result |
+|-------|------|------|--------|
+| `lib/tcl/test.sh` | **57.8s** | 16.3s | **376/376 ✓** |
+| `lib/lua/test.sh` | 27.3s | 4.2s | 185/185 ✓ |
+| `lib/erlang/conformance.sh` (with `timeout 120` raised to `600` so it could complete) | 3m25s | 36.8s | **530/530 ✓** |
+| `lib/prolog/conformance.sh` | 3m54s | 1m8.6s | **590/590 ✓** |
+| `lib/haskell/conformance.sh` | 6m59s | 2m37s | **156/156 ✓** |
+
+**Conclusion: there is no 30× substrate perf regression on architecture HEAD.** Every guest passes its full conformance/test suite cleanly on a quiet machine. The earlier symptoms had three independent causes:
+
+1. **Heavy CPU contention** (load avg 18–23 on 2 cores) from the concurrent minikanren / ocaml / datalog / haskell-loop / js-loop / etc. tmux sessions stretched all wall times by ~4–5×, which pushed `lib/erlang/conformance.sh`'s internal `timeout 120` past its budget so the script captured 0 markers, and pushed prolog over the 8 GB memory + 8 GB swap budget so the kernel OOM-killed it.
+2. **One genuinely too-tight internal deadline:** `lib/erlang/conformance.sh` uses `timeout 120` for the *entire* 9-suite chain. Even on a quiet machine the run needs 3m25s wall (36.8s user). This is not contention — it's an under-budgeted script.
+3. **Watchdog over-conservatism:** `lib/tcl/test.sh` has `timeout 2400`. Quiet-machine wall is 57.8s — 41× under the deadline. The 180→1200→2400 bumps in the source history were preemptive responses to test-count growth + contention, not to an actual per-call substrate regression. The original 180s deadline is comfortable.
+
+Hypotheses status:
+- (1) env-as-value churn: **eliminated** — per-test user time is essentially flat (or 0.83× actually faster) baseline → current.
+- (2) JIT cache miss / re-compile per call: **eliminated** — same.
+- (3) Frame snapshot deep-copy: **eliminated** — prolog conformance with heavy meta-call usage completes in 1m8s user.
+- (4) Lazy JIT bypassed: **eliminated** — same.
+- (5) Type-check overhead: **eliminated** — same.
+- (6) Frame representation: **eliminated** — same.
+
+**Recommendation: skip Phases 2–4 (bisect, diagnose, fix) entirely; there is no substrate regression to find.** The plan's North-star outcome — restore Tcl's `test.sh` deadline to ≤180s — is already achievable today by simply restoring the deadline. Replace Phases 2–4 with a single deadline-tuning task (Phase 5), and keep Phase 6 (perf-regression alarm) since the underlying motivation (catch a future substrate regression early, not via a watchdog bump) is still sound.
+
+Proposed Phase 5 (deadline tuning), pending user approval:
+- `lib/tcl/test.sh`: `timeout 2400` → `timeout 300` (5× over quiet-machine wall, gives 5× contention headroom).
+- `lib/erlang/conformance.sh`: `timeout 120` → `timeout 600` (the only genuinely too-tight deadline). Quiet wall 3m25s.
+- Other guests' deadlines: leave as-is (already comfortable).
+- No source-tree changes outside those two scripts.
+
+Loops were left paused at the end of measurement; user to decide when to resume.

+## Phase 6 — Command surface fill-out ✓
+
+After Phases 1–5 the architecture and IO model are complete. What remains
+is filling in the command surface that real Tcl scripts depend on.
+
+| Status | Work | Effort | Why it matters |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| [x] | **Phase 6a — namespace polish (`::var`)** | small | `set ::var` from inside a proc now resolves to the global (root) frame. Tokenizer also updated so `$::var` substitution works. Surfaced during socket -async test design. |
+| [x] | **Phase 6b — list ops audit** | few hours | Added `lassign`, `lrepeat`, `lset`, `lmap`. (`lsearch`, `lreplace`, `lreverse` were already present.) |
+| [x] | **Phase 6c — `dict` command additions** | small | `dict create/get/set/unset/exists/keys/values/for/update/merge/incr/append` were already implemented. Added `dict lappend`, `dict remove`, `dict filter -key`. |
+| [x] | **Phase 6d — `scan` and `format`** | few hours | Added `printf-spec` and `scan-spec` SX primitives wrapping OCaml `Printf`/`Scanf` via `Scanf.format_from_string`. Tcl `format` rewrote to dispatch via `printf-spec`; `scan` is a real walker that fills variables. Supports `%d %i %u %x %X %o %c %s %f %e %E %g %G %%` with width/precision/flags. |
+| [x] | **Phase 6e — `exec`** | few hours | `exec-process` SX primitive wraps `Unix.create_process` + `Unix.waitpid` and captures stdout. Tcl `exec cmd arg...` returns trimmed stdout; non-zero exit raises an error including stderr. Pipelines/redirection (`\|`, `>`, `<`) are not yet parsed. |
+
+**Bonus perf:** `tcl-global-ref?` (called on every var-get/set) was using
+`(substring name 0 2)` — re-allocating a 2-char string per call. Switched
+to `(char-at name 0)` + `(char-at name 1)` which short-circuits on
+non-`:` names. ~6× speedup on tight loops (`factorial 10`: 16s → 2.5s).
+
+`tcl-call-proc` was discarding `:fileevents`, `:timers`, and `:procs`
+updates made inside Tcl proc bodies — only `:commands` was forwarded.
+Now forwards the full set. Surfaced when socket-async made
+fileevent-from-inside-proc the canonical pattern.
+
+**Bug fix landed alongside:** `vwait ::var` was infinite-looping because
+`vwait` used `frame-lookup` directly, which doesn't honour `::` global
+routing. So after `set ::done fired` (which routes the write to the root
+frame), `vwait ::done` kept reading the local frame and never saw the
+change. Added `tcl-var-lookup-or-nil` helper that mirrors `tcl-var-get`'s
+`::` routing but returns nil instead of erroring on missing vars; vwait
+and `info exists` both use it now.
+
+**Total: 399/399 green** (parse 67, eval 169, error 39, namespace 22,
+coro 20, idiom 82).
