# miniKanren-on-SX: relational programming on the CEK/VM
|
||
|
||
miniKanren is not a language to parse — it is an **embedded DSL** implemented as a library
|
||
of SX functions. No tokenizer, no transpiler. The entire system is a set of `define` forms
|
||
in `lib/minikanren/`. Programs are SX expressions using the miniKanren API.
|
||
|
||
The unique angle: SX's delimited continuation machinery (`perform`/`cek-resume`, call/cc)
|
||
maps almost perfectly to the search monad miniKanren needs. Backtracking is cooperative
|
||
suspension, not a separate trail machine. This is the cleanest possible host for miniKanren.
|
||
|
||
End-state goal: **full core miniKanren** (`run`, `fresh`, `==`, `conde`, `condu`, `onceo`,
|
||
`project`, `matche`) + **core.logic-style relations** (`appendo`, `membero`, `listo`,
|
||
`numbero`, etc.) + **arithmetic constraints** (`fd` domain, `CLP(FD)` subset).
|
||
|
||
## Ground rules
|
||
|
||
- **Scope:** only touch `lib/minikanren/**` and `plans/minikanren-on-sx.md`. Do **not**
|
||
edit `spec/`, `hosts/`, `shared/`, or other `lib/<lang>/`.
|
||
- **Shared-file issues** go under "Blockers" below with a minimal repro; do not fix here.
|
||
- **SX files:** use `sx-tree` MCP tools only.
|
||
- **Architecture:** pure library — no source parser. Programs are written in SX using the API.
|
||
- **Reference:** *The Reasoned Schemer* (Friedman/Byrd/Kiselyov) + Byrd's dissertation.
|
||
- **Commits:** one feature per commit. Keep `## Progress log` updated and tick boxes.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
Key semantic mappings:
|
||
- **Logic variable** → SX vector of length 1 (mutable box); `make-var` creates fresh one;
|
||
`walk` follows the substitution chain
|
||
- **Substitution** → SX association list (or hash table for performance) mapping var → term
|
||
- **Stream of substitutions** → lazy list using `delay`/`force` (Phase 9 of primitives)
|
||
- **Goal** → SX function `substitution → stream-of-substitutions`
|
||
- **`==`** → unifies two terms, extending substitution or failing (empty stream)
|
||
- **`fresh`** → introduces new logic variables; `(fresh (x y) goal)` → goal with x, y bound
|
||
- **`conde`** → interleave streams from multiple goal clauses (depth-first with interleaving)
|
||
- **`run n`** → drive the stream, collect first n substitutions, reify answers
|
||
|
||
## Roadmap
|
||
|
||
### Phase 1 — variables + unification
|
||
- [x] `make-var` → fresh logic variable (unique mutable box)
|
||
- [x] `var?` `v` → bool — is this a logic variable?
|
||
- [x] `walk` `term` `subst` → follow substitution chain to ground term or unbound var
|
||
- [x] `walk*` `term` `subst` → deep walk (recurse into lists/dicts)
|
||
- [x] `unify` `u` `v` `subst` → extended substitution or `#f` (failure)
|
||
Handles: var/var, var/term, term/var, list unification, number/string/symbol equality.
|
||
No occurs check by default; `unify-check` with occurs check as opt-in.
|
||
- [x] Empty substitution `empty-s` (dict-based via kit's `empty-subst` — assoc list was a sketch; kit ships dict, kept it)
|
||
- [x] Tests in `lib/minikanren/tests/unify.sx`: ground terms, vars, lists, failure, occurs
|
||
|
||
### Phase 2 — streams + goals
|
||
- [x] Stream type: `mzero` (empty), `unit s` (singleton), `mk-mplus` (interleave),
|
||
`mk-bind` (apply goal to stream). Names mk-prefixed because SX has a host
|
||
`bind` primitive that silently shadows user defines.
|
||
- [x] Lazy streams via thunks: a paused stream is a zero-arg fn; mk-mplus suspends
|
||
and swaps when its left operand is paused, giving fair interleaving.
|
||
- [x] `==` goal: `(fn (s) (let ((s2 (mk-unify u v s))) (if s2 (unit s2) mzero)))`
|
||
- [x] `==-check` — opt-in occurs-checked equality goal
|
||
- [x] `succeed` / `fail` — trivial goals
|
||
- [x] `conj2` / `mk-conj` (variadic) — sequential conjunction
|
||
- [x] `disj2` / `mk-disj` (variadic) — interleaved disjunction (raw — `conde`
|
||
adds the implicit-conj-per-clause sugar later)
|
||
- [x] `fresh` — introduces logic variables inside a goal body. Implemented as a
|
||
defmacro: `(fresh (x y) g1 g2 ...)` ⇒ `(let ((x (make-var)) (y (make-var)))
|
||
(mk-conj g1 g2 ...))`. Also `call-fresh` for programmatic goal building.
|
||
- [x] `conde` — sugar over disj+conj, one row per clause; defmacro that
|
||
wraps each clause body in `mk-conj` and folds via `mk-disj`. Notes:
|
||
with eager streams ordering is left-clause-first DFS; true interleaving
|
||
requires paused thunks (Phase 4 recursive relations).
|
||
- [x] `condu` — committed choice. defmacro folding clauses into a runtime
|
||
`condu-try` walker; first clause whose head goal yields a non-empty
|
||
stream commits its first answer, rest-goals run on that single subst.
|
||
- [x] `onceo` — `(stream-take 1 (g s))`; trims a goal's stream to ≤1 answer.
|
||
- [x] Tests: basic goal composition, backtracking, interleaving (110 cumulative)
|
||
|
||
### Phase 3 — run + reification
|
||
- [x] `run*` `goal` → list of all answers (reified). defmacro: bind q-name as
|
||
fresh var, conj goals, take all from stream, reify each.
|
||
- [x] `run n` `goal` → list of first n answers (defmacro; n = -1 means all)
|
||
- [x] `reify` `term` `subst` → walk* + build reification subst + walk* again
|
||
- [x] `reify-s` → maps each unbound var (in left-to-right walk order) to a
|
||
`_.N` symbol via `(make-symbol (str "_." n))`
|
||
- [x] `fresh` with multiple variables — already shipped Phase 2B.
|
||
- [x] Query variable conventions: `q` as canonical query variable (matches TRS)
|
||
- [x] Tests: classic miniKanren programs — `(run* q (== q 1))` → `(1)`,
|
||
`(run* q (conde ((== q 1)) ((== q 2))))` → `(1 2)`,
|
||
`(run* q (fresh (x y) (== q (list x y))))` → `((_.0 _.1))`. Peano +
|
||
`appendo` deferred to Phase 4.
|
||
|
||
### Phase 4 — standard relations
|
||
- [x] `appendo` `l` `s` `ls` — list append, runs forwards AND backwards.
|
||
Canary green: `(run* q (appendo (1 2) (3 4) q))` → `((1 2 3 4))`;
|
||
`(run* q (fresh (l s) (appendo l s (1 2 3)) (== q (list l s))))` →
|
||
all four splits.
|
||
- [x] `membero` `x` `l` — enumerates: `(run* q (membero q (a b c)))` → `(a b c)`
|
||
- [x] `listo` `l` — l is a proper list; enumerates list shapes with laziness
|
||
- [x] `nullo` `l` — l is empty
|
||
- [x] `pairo` `p` — p is a (non-empty) cons-cell / list
|
||
- [x] `caro` / `cdro` / `conso` / `firsto` / `resto`
|
||
- [x] `reverseo` `l` `r` — reverse of list. Forward is fast; backward is `run 1`-clean,
|
||
`run*` diverges due to interleaved unbounded list search (canonical TRS issue).
|
||
- [x] `flatteno` `l` `f` — flatten nested lists. Three conde clauses:
|
||
empty → empty; pair → recurse on car & cdr + appendo; otherwise atom →
|
||
`(== flat (list tree))`. Atom-ness is asserted via `nafc (nullo tree)
|
||
+ nafc (pairo tree)` — both succeed only when tree is a ground non-list.
|
||
Works on ground inputs.
|
||
- [x] `permuteo` `l` `p` — permutation of list. Built on `inserto` (insert at any
|
||
position) and recursive permutation of tail. All 6 perms of (1 2 3) generated
|
||
forward; backward `run 1 q (permuteo q (a b c))` finds the input.
|
||
- [x] `lengtho` `l` `n` — length as a relation, Peano-encoded:
|
||
`:z` / `(:s :z)` / `(:s (:s :z))` ... matches TRS. Forward is direct;
|
||
backward enumerates lists of a given length.
|
||
- [x] Tests: run each relation forwards and backwards (so far 25 in
|
||
`tests/relations.sx`; reverseo/flatteno/permuteo/lengtho deferred)
|
||
|
||
### Phase 5 — `project` + `matche` + negation
|
||
- [x] `project` `(x ...) body` — defmacro: rebinds named vars to `(mk-walk* var s)`
|
||
in the body's lexical scope, then runs `(mk-conj body...)` on the same
|
||
substitution. Hygienic via gensym'd `s`-param. (`Phase 5 piece B`)
|
||
- [x] `matche` — pattern matching over logic terms. Pattern grammar: `_` /
|
||
symbol / atom / `()` / `(p1 p2 ... pn)`. Each clause becomes
|
||
`(fresh (vars-in-pat) (== target pat-expr) body...)`. Repeated symbol
|
||
names in a pattern produce the same fresh var, so they unify (== check).
|
||
Built without quasiquote (the expander does not recurse into lambda
|
||
bodies). Fixed-length list patterns only — head/tail destructuring uses
|
||
`(fresh (a d) (conso a d target) body)` directly.
|
||
- [x] `conda` — soft-cut: first non-failing head wins; ALL of head's answers
|
||
flow through rest-goals; later clauses not tried (`Phase 5 piece A`)
|
||
- [x] `condu` — committed choice (Phase 2)
|
||
- [x] `nafc` — negation as finite failure: `(nafc g)` yields the input subst
|
||
iff g has zero answers. Standard caveats apply (open-world unsoundness;
|
||
diverges if g is infinite). `Phase 5 piece C`.
|
||
- [ ] Tests: Zebra puzzle, N-queens, Sudoku via `project`, family relations via `matche`
|
||
|
||
### Phase 6 — arithmetic constraints CLP(FD)
|
||
- [ ] Finite domain variables: `fd-var` with domain `[lo..hi]`
|
||
- [x] `ino` `x` `domain` — alias for `(membero x domain)` with the
|
||
constraint-store-friendly argument order. Sufficient for the
|
||
enumerate-then-filter style of finite-domain solving.
|
||
- [x] `all-distincto` `l` — pairwise-distinct elements via `nafc + membero`.
|
||
- [ ] `fd-eq` `x` `y` — x = y (constraint propagation)
|
||
- [ ] `fd-neq` `x` `y` — x ≠ y
|
||
- [ ] `fd-lt` `fd-lte` `fd-gt` `fd-gte` — ordering constraints
|
||
- [ ] `fd-plus` `x` `y` `z` — x + y = z (constraint)
|
||
- [ ] `fd-times` `x` `y` `z` — x * y = z
|
||
- [ ] Arc consistency propagation — when domain narrows, propagate to constrained vars
|
||
- [ ] Labelling: `fd-run` drives search by splitting domains when propagation stalls
|
||
- [ ] Tests: send-more-money, N-queens with CLP(FD), map coloring, cryptarithmetic
|
||
|
||
### Phase 7 — tabling (memoization of relations)
|
||
- [ ] `tabled` annotation: memoize calls to a relation using a hash table
|
||
- [ ] Prevents infinite loops in recursive relations like `patho` on cyclic graphs
|
||
- [ ] Producer/consumer scheduling for tabled relations (variant of SLG resolution)
|
||
- [ ] Tests: cyclic graph reachability, mutual recursion, Fibonacci via tabling

## Progress log
|
||
|
||
_Newest first._
|
||
|
||
- **2026-05-08** — **samelengtho**: classic miniKanren relation that
|
||
succeeds when two lists have equal length. Symmetric — works to enumerate
|
||
both lists fresh: `(run 3 q (fresh (l1 l2) (samelengtho l1 l2) (== q
|
||
(list l1 l2))))` produces empty/empty, then 1-elem pairs, then 2-elem.
|
||
5 new tests, 293/293 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-08** — **Pythagorean triples (intarith showcase)**: search for
|
||
(a, b, c) ∈ [1..10]³, a ≤ b, a² + b² = c² via `ino + lteo-i + *o-i +
|
||
pluso-i + ==`. Finds exactly `(3 4 5)` and `(6 8 10)`. Demonstrates the
|
||
enumerate-then-filter pattern with intarith escape into host arithmetic.
|
||
1 new test, 288/288 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-08** — **intarith.sx — fast ground-only integer arithmetic**:
|
||
pluso-i / minuso-i / *o-i / lto-i / lteo-i / neqo-i wrap host arithmetic
|
||
via `project`. They are not relational like Peano `pluso` (require args
|
||
to walk to numbers), but run at native host speed — a viable escape
|
||
hatch when puzzle size makes Peano impractical. Composes with relational
|
||
goals: `(membero x dom) (lto-i x 3)` filters dom by `< 3`. 18 new tests,
|
||
287/287 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-08** — **2x2 Latin square**: small classic constraint demo using
|
||
`ino` + 4 `all-distincto` constraints. Enumerates exactly 2 squares
|
||
(`((1 2)(2 1))` and `((2 1)(1 2))`); a clue (top-left = 1) narrows to one.
|
||
3 new tests, 269/269 cumulative. Note: 3x3 (12 squares) is the natural
|
||
showcase but too slow under naive enumerate-then-filter — needs Phase 6
|
||
arc-consistency.
|
||
- **2026-05-08** — **rembero / assoco / nth-o**: more standard list relations.
|
||
rembero removes the first occurrence (uses `nafc (== a x)` to gate the
|
||
skip clause, so it's well-defined on ground lists). assoco is alist
|
||
lookup — works forward (key → value) and backward (value → key). nth-o
|
||
uses Peano indices into a list. 13 new tests, 266/266 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-08** — **flatteno**: nested-list flattener via conde + appendo.
|
||
Atom-ness is detected via `nafc (nullo ...) + nafc (pairo ...)` so the
|
||
third clause only fires when the input is a ground non-list. Works for
|
||
`()` / atoms / flat lists / arbitrarily-nested lists. 7 new tests,
|
||
253/253 cumulative. Phase 4 list relations all complete.
|
||
- **2026-05-08** — **Laziness tests**: explicitly verifies the
|
||
Zzz-on-conde-clauses + mk-mplus-swap-on-paused machinery: an
|
||
infinitely-recursive relation truncated via `run 4 q (listo-aux q)`
|
||
produces exactly `(() (_.0) (_.0 _.1) (_.0 _.1 _.2))`; mixing two
|
||
infinite generators via `mk-disj` keeps both alive (no starvation);
|
||
`run*` terminates on a bounded query. 3 new tests, 246/246 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-08** — **N-queens (classic miniKanren benchmark green)**:
|
||
`lib/minikanren/queens.sx`. Encoding cols(i) = column of queen in row i;
|
||
`ino-each` + `all-distincto` cover row/column constraints; `safe-diag`
|
||
uses `project` to escape into host arithmetic for the `|c_i - c_j| ≠
|
||
|i - j|` diagonal check; `all-cells-safe` walks pairs at construction
|
||
time. `(run* q (fresh (a b c d) (== q (list a b c d)) (queens-cols
|
||
(list a b c d) 4)))` returns the two valid 4-queens placements
|
||
`(2 4 1 3)` and `(3 1 4 2)`. 6 new tests, 243/243 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-08** — **Phase 6 piece A — minimal FD (ino + all-distincto)**:
|
||
`lib/minikanren/fd.sx`. `ino` is `membero` with the FD-style argument
|
||
order; `all-distincto` is `nafc + membero` walking the list. Together
|
||
they cover the enumerate-then-filter style of finite-domain solving —
|
||
`(fresh (a b c) (ino a D) (ino b D) (ino c D) (all-distincto (list a b c)))`
|
||
enumerates all distinct triples from D. Full FD with arc-consistency,
|
||
fd-plus etc. is still pending. 9 new tests, 237/237 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-08** — **Classic puzzles + matche keyword fix**: matche now emits
|
||
keywords bare in the pattern->expr conversion so they self-evaluate to their
|
||
string name and unify with the same-keyword target value (instead of becoming
|
||
a quoted-keyword type). New `tests/classics.sx`: pet permutation puzzle,
|
||
parent/grandparent inference over a fact list, symbolic differentiation
|
||
driven by matche dispatch on `:x` / `(:+ a b)` / `(:* a b)` patterns.
|
||
6 new tests, 228/228 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-08** — **Phase 5 piece D — matche, Phase 5 done**: pattern matching
|
||
macro (`lib/minikanren/matche.sx`) — symbols become fresh vars, atoms become
|
||
literals, lists recurse positionally, repeated names unify. 14 new tests
|
||
(literals, vars, wildcards, list patterns, multi-clause dispatch, nested
|
||
patterns, repeated-var-implies-eq). Built via `cons`/`list` rather than
|
||
quasiquote because SX's quasiquote does not recurse into lambda bodies — a
|
||
worth-knowing gotcha. 222/222 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-08** — **Phase 4 piece C — permuteo + inserto**: standard recursive
|
||
insert-at-any-position + permute-tail. 7 new tests, including all-6-perms-of-3
|
||
as a set check. 208/208 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-07** — **Phase 5 piece C — nafc**: `lib/minikanren/nafc.sx`. Three-line
|
||
primitive: stream-take 1; if empty, `(unit s)`, else `mzero`. 7 tests including
|
||
double-negation and use as a guard. 201/201 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-07** — **Phase 5 piece B — project**: `lib/minikanren/project.sx` —
|
||
defmacro that walks each named var, rebinds them, and runs the body's mk-conj.
|
||
Demonstrated escape into host arithmetic / string ops (`(* n n)`, `(str s "!")`).
|
||
Hygienic gensym'd s-param. 6 new tests, 194/194 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-07** — **Peano arithmetic** (`lib/minikanren/peano.sx`): zeroo, pluso,
|
||
minuso, lteo, lto, *o on Peano-encoded naturals (`:z` / `(:s n)`). pluso runs
|
||
forward, backward, and enumerates: `(run* q (fresh (a b) (pluso a b 3)
|
||
(== q (list a b))))` → all 4 pairs summing to 3. *o uses repeated pluso —
|
||
works for small inputs, slower for larger. 19 new tests, 188/188 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-07** — **Phase 5 piece A — conda**: soft-cut. Mirrors `condu` minus
|
||
the `onceo` on the head: all head answers are conjuncted through the rest of
|
||
the chosen clause. 7 new tests including the conda-vs-condu divergence test.
|
||
169/169 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-07** — **Phase 4 piece B — reverseo + lengtho**: reverseo runs forward
|
||
cleanly and `run 1`-cleanly backward; lengtho uses Peano-encoded lengths so it
|
||
works as a true relation in both directions (tests use the encoding directly).
|
||
10 new tests, 162/162 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-07** — **Phase 4 piece A — appendo canary green**: cons-cell support
|
||
in `unify.sx` + `(:s head tail)` lazy stream refactor in `stream.sx` + hygienic
|
||
`Zzz` (gensym'd subst-name) wrapping each `conde` clause + `lib/minikanren/
|
||
relations.sx` with `nullo` / `pairo` / `caro` / `cdro` / `conso` / `firsto` /
|
||
`resto` / `listo` / `appendo` / `membero`. 25 new tests in `tests/relations.sx`,
|
||
152/152 cumulative.
|
||
- **Three deep fixes shipped together**, all required to make `appendo`
|
||
terminate in both directions:
|
||
1. SX has no improper pairs, so a stream cell of mature subst + thunk
|
||
tail can't use `cons` — moved to a `(:s head tail)` tagged shape.
|
||
2. `(Zzz g)` wrapped its inner fn in a parameter named `s`, capturing
|
||
the user goal's own `s` binding (the `(appendo l s ls)` convention).
|
||
Replaced with `(gensym "zzz-s-")` for hygiene.
|
||
3. SX cons cells `(:cons h t)` for relational decomposition (so
|
||
`(conso a d l)` can split a list by head/tail without proper
|
||
improper pairs); `mk-walk*` re-flattens cons cells back to native
|
||
lists for clean reification output.
|
||
- **2026-05-07** — **Phase 3 done** (run + reification): `lib/minikanren/run.sx` (~28 lines).
|
||
`reify`/`reify-s`/`reify-name` for canonical `_.N` rendering of unbound vars in
|
||
left-to-right occurrence order; `run*` / `run` / `run-n` defmacros. 18 new tests
|
||
in `tests/run.sx`, including the **first classic miniKanren tests green**:
|
||
`(run* q (== q 1))` → `(1)`; `(run* q (fresh (x y) (== q (list x y))))` →
|
||
`((_.0 _.1))`. 128/128 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-07** — **Phase 2 piece D + done** (`condu` / `onceo`): `lib/minikanren/condu.sx`.
|
||
Both are commitment forms: `onceo` is `(stream-take 1 ...)`; `condu` walks clauses

and commits the first one whose head produces an answer. 10 tests in `tests/condu.sx`,
|
||
110/110 cumulative. Phase 2 complete — ready for Phase 3 (run + reification).
|
||
- **2026-05-07** — **Phase 2 piece C** (`conde`): `lib/minikanren/conde.sx` — single
|
||
defmacro folding clauses through `mk-disj` with internal `mk-conj`. 9 tests in
|
||
`tests/conde.sx`, 100/100 cumulative. Confirmed eager DFS ordering for ==-only
|
||
streams; true interleaving is a Phase 4 concern (paused thunks under recursion).
|
||
- **2026-05-07** — **Phase 2 piece B** (`fresh`): `lib/minikanren/fresh.sx` (~10 lines).
|
||
defmacro form for nice user-facing syntax + `call-fresh` for programmatic use.
|
||
9 new tests in `tests/fresh.sx`, 91/91 cumulative.
|
||
- **2026-05-07** — **Phase 2 piece A** (streams + ==/conj/disj): `lib/minikanren/stream.sx`
|
||
(mzero/unit/mk-mplus/mk-bind/stream-take, ~25 lines of code) + `lib/minikanren/goals.sx`
|
||
(succeed/fail/==/==-check/conj2/disj2/mk-conj/mk-disj, ~30 lines). Found and noted
|
||
a host-primitive name clash: `bind` is built in and silently shadows user defines —
|
||
must use `mk-bind`/`mk-mplus` etc. throughout. 34 tests in `tests/goals.sx`,
|
||
82/82 cumulative all green. fresh/conde/condu/onceo still pending.
|
||
- **2026-05-07** — **Phase 1 done**: `lib/minikanren/unify.sx` (53 lines, ~22 lines of actual code) +
|
||
`lib/minikanren/tests/unify.sx` (48 tests, all green). Kit consumption: `walk-with`,
|
||
`unify-with`, `occurs-with`, `extend`, `empty-subst`, `mk-var`, `is-var?`, `var-name`
|
||
all supplied by `lib/guest/match.sx`. Local additions: a miniKanren-flavoured cfg
|
||
(treats native SX lists as cons-pairs via `:ctor-head = :pair`, occurs-check off),
|
||
`make-var` fresh-counter, deep `mk-walk*` (kit's `walk*` only recurses into `:ctor`
|
||
form, not native lists), and `mk-unify` / `mk-unify-check` thin wrappers. The kit
|
||
earns its keep ~3× over by line count — confirms lib-guest match kit is reusable
|
||
for logic-language hosts as designed.
