Subject: [PATCH 01/29] Work through the pending punch list from the Dhamaka
 scaffold

Tests (40 total, node --test, zero deps):
- runtime: MockEngine load/generate/abort/determinism, Tokenizer split
  variants, factory backend selection, WasmEngine load-without-url refusal
- sdk: Chat history/reset/stream/system-prompt, HubClient fallback
  get/list/delete with mocked fetch, OpenAI shim streaming + non-streaming
  + passthrough
- hub: canonical + served manifest structural checks

FallbackStore is now real:
- Uses a per-origin IndexedDB in browsers, in-memory only in Node
- Resolves artifact URLs relative to the configured manifest URL
- Reports list entries with size + fetchedAt

Storage Access API tier:
- Hub detects current storage tier and advertises it in the ready handshake
- Hub accepts a dhamaka:request-storage-access message and calls
  document.requestStorageAccess() under a user gesture
- HubClient.mode() now returns "shared" | "storage-access" | "partitioned"
  | "site-local" | "extension", with a new requestStorageAccess() method

Browser extension (phase 2 skeleton):
- Manifest V3 background service worker with IndexedDB + SHA-256
- Content script bridge (postMessage <-> chrome.runtime.sendMessage)
- Marker injection (window.__dhamaka_extension__) so the SDK auto-detects
- SDK prefers the extension over the iframe hub when available
- Options page listing cached models with evict controls

Playground UX:
- Stateful chat (one Chat session per load, not one per message)
- Stop button bound to an AbortController; MockEngine already honors signal
- Reset button clears history but keeps the loaded model
- Small CSS polish for aborted messages

Other fixes:
- OpenAI shim robustly parses Blob/ArrayBuffer/TypedArray/string bodies
- manifest.schema.json (JSON Schema draft-07) now exists as $schema claimed
- CI workflow runs tests on Node 20 and 22 plus a dev-server smoke test
- README status section updated to reflect what's newly real

+# @dhamaka/extension
+
+The Dhamaka browser extension. Ships the cross-site model cache as a native browser extension, which sidesteps third-party storage partitioning entirely.
+
+## Why
+
+Modern browsers partition third-party iframe storage by top-level site. That means the shared-hub iframe trick degrades to per-site caching in strict modes. A browser extension doesn't have this problem: its origin (`chrome-extension://…`) is the same everywhere it's installed, so an IndexedDB stored there is genuinely shared across every tab.
+
+## Architecture

+                                                                           │ (extension  │

+```
+
+1. `content.js` injects a tiny marker (`window.__dhamaka_extension__`) so the SDK can detect the extension is installed.
+2. When `Dhamaka.load()` runs, `HubClient._install()` sees the marker and switches to extension mode instead of injecting the hub iframe.
+3. Messages flow page → content script → background worker. The worker handles storage in its own IndexedDB and responds with the cached bytes.
+4. The SDK's `hub.mode()` reports `"extension"` so apps can display "shared across every site" confidently.
+
+## Install (dev)
+
+1. Open `chrome://extensions` in Chrome or Edge.
+2. Enable **Developer mode**.
+3. Click **Load unpacked** and select `packages/extension/`.
+4. Visit any Dhamaka-powered site — `Dhamaka.hub.mode()` should now return `"extension"`.
+
+## Status
+
+This is the **phase-2 skeleton**. It covers:
+
+- Manifest V3 background service worker
+- Content script bridge on every origin
+- IndexedDB storage + SHA-256 integrity verification
+- `get` / `list` / `delete` / `ping` over the same protocol as the hub iframe
+- A tiny options page that lists cached models and lets you evict them
+- SDK auto-detection via the injected marker
+
+Not yet covered:
+
+- Signed manifest pinning
+- Progress events during download (Chrome's message channel can't stream)
+- Firefox port (Manifest V3 in Firefox is still shifting)
+- An actual published listing on the Chrome Web Store

Subject: [PATCH 02/29] Build the real Rust inference runtime and wire it
 end-to-end
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The spec said "a small transformer inference runtime compiled to WASM".
Up to now that was a Rust-shaped hole in the tree filled with a JS
MockEngine. This commit lands the actual Rust crate and makes the whole
stack drive tokens through real compiled-to-WASM transformer math.

crates/dhamaka-runtime/ (new, pure Rust, no deps):
- tensor.rs   matmul, RMSNorm (with eps), softmax (numerically stable,
              translation invariant), SwiGLU/SiLU, RoPE (pair-wise rotation
              preserving L2 norm), in-place add/mul
- sampler.rs  temperature + top-k + top-p + greedy in one pass, with a
              deterministic RNG so identical prompts yield identical output
- rng.rs      xorshift64* + FNV-1a seed hashing
- transformer.rs minimal Llama-style block: RMSNorm → Q/K/V projections →
              RoPE → KV-cached self-attention → output projection →
              RMSNorm → SwiGLU FFN → residual. MAX_CTX=512.
- model.rs    tiny 32-dim / 2-layer / 64-vocab random-weights model
              with reproducible Box-Müller init
- abi.rs      #[no_mangle] extern "C" exports: dhamaka_version / _alloc /
              _free / _init / _destroy / _reset / _set_sampling /
              _feed_prompt / _next_token

27 native cargo tests cover every primitive, determinism, sampler
truncation laws, and that position changes via RoPE + KV cache actually
propagate to the output logits.

packages/runtime/src/wasm-engine.js is now real:
- Fetches dhamaka-runtime.wasm, instantiates it, verifies ABI_VERSION
- Writes prompt bytes into WASM linear memory via dhamaka_alloc
- Drives dhamaka_feed_prompt + dhamaka_next_token in a stream loop
- Decodes UTF-8 on the way out, yields tokens, honors AbortSignal
- Falls back cleanly when unreachable (keeps the test coverage honest)

Factory now prefers WasmEngine in browsers and MockEngine in Node, so
the existing JS tests still run in CI without a .wasm on disk, while
any real browser gets real inference.

4 new Node integration tests stub fetch() to load the real .wasm off disk
and exercise end-to-end generation, determinism, and abort.

Infrastructure:
- build.sh installs the wasm32 target on demand, compiles release,
  stages the .wasm into packages/hub/public/runtime/
- Dev server serves .wasm with application/wasm + CORS so the SDK on
  :5173 can cross-origin fetch the runtime from the hub on :5174
- CI now has two jobs: rust (cargo test + build + upload wasm artifact)
  and js (downloads the artifact and runs the JS suite + dev-server
  smoke test, matrix over Node 20 + 22)
- .gitignore ignores crates/*/target/ but commits the built .wasm so
  fresh clones work without a Rust toolchain

Test totals:
- 27 Rust unit tests (cargo test), all green
- 45 JS tests (node --test), all green, including 4 end-to-end WASM
  integration tests

v0.1 is honest about what it is: the math is real, the weights are a
32-dim random tiny model, and output is stream-of-tokens not coherent
English. SmolLM2-360M weights plug into the exact same dhamaka_init
entry point when they arrive — the SDK doesn't move.

+# dhamaka-runtime
+
+The Dhamaka inference runtime, written in Rust, compiled to WebAssembly.
+
+This is the hot path. Everything in here — matmul, RMSNorm, softmax, rotary embeddings, SwiGLU, KV-cached self-attention, temperature/top-k/top-p sampling — runs inside a WASM module instantiated by the Dhamaka SDK in any modern browser tab.
+
+## Why Rust
+
+Transformer inference is a lot of f32 math repeated once per generated token. JavaScript can do it, Rust-compiled-to-WASM runs it at roughly native speed. That speed is the whole point of Dhamaka. The tradeoff is that you need a Rust toolchain to build the `.wasm` (or use the prebuilt one checked in under `packages/hub/public/runtime/`).
+
+## Build
+
+```sh
+./build.sh            # cargo build --release --target wasm32-unknown-unknown
+./build.sh --check    # also run the native test suite
+```
+
+The script installs `wasm32-unknown-unknown` on demand, compiles the crate at `opt-level = 3` with fat LTO, and stages the resulting `.wasm` at `packages/hub/public/runtime/dhamaka-runtime.wasm` where the dev server and the hub pick it up.
+
+## Tests
+
+```sh
+cargo test
+```
+
+27 unit tests cover every primitive:
+
+- RNG determinism + value ranges (`rng.rs`)
+- matmul, RMSNorm, softmax (numerical stability, translation invariance), SwiGLU/SiLU, in-place add/mul, rotary norm preservation (`tensor.rs`)
+- greedy, top-k, top-p, temperature, RNG determinism for the sampler (`sampler.rs`)
+- forward pass produces finite logits, is deterministic, and position-sensitive via RoPE + KV cache (`transformer.rs`)
+- weight initialization is reproducible and the tokenize/detokenize round trip is safe (`model.rs`)
+

+```
+
+## ABI
+
+JavaScript talks to this crate over a tiny C ABI. The full list is in `src/abi.rs`:
+
+```text
+dhamaka_version()                      -> u32
+dhamaka_alloc(len)                     -> *mut u8
+dhamaka_free(ptr, len)                 -> void
+dhamaka_init(w, wl, c, cl)             -> *mut Context
+dhamaka_destroy(ctx)                   -> void
+dhamaka_reset(ctx)                     -> void
+dhamaka_set_sampling(ctx, t, k, p, m)  -> void
+dhamaka_feed_prompt(ctx, ptr, len)     -> void
+dhamaka_next_token(ctx, out, cap)      -> i32   (-1 on EOS)
+```
+
+JS writes prompt bytes into WASM linear memory via `dhamaka_alloc`, hands the pointer to `dhamaka_feed_prompt`, then loops on `dhamaka_next_token` to stream UTF-8 bytes back out.
+
+The SDK's `WasmEngine` (`packages/runtime/src/wasm-engine.js`) is the reference client and runs this ABI end-to-end in both Node (via `WebAssembly.instantiate`) and the browser (via `WebAssembly.instantiateStreaming`).
+
+## v0.1 caveats
+
+- The v0.1 model is a **tiny random-weights transformer**: 32-dim hidden, 2 layers, 1 head, 64-entry vocab. Real math, not real English. It exists to prove the stack works and to give us something that compiles to a 56 KB `.wasm` anyone can download and run.
+- Real weight loading — quantized SmolLM2-360M tensors from the hub — lands when we ship the artifacts.
+- No SIMD yet. `-C target-feature=+simd128` is a one-line build change once we have a baseline benchmark to measure against.
+- No WebGPU fast path yet.
+
+None of these caveats change the ABI, so the SDK and playground don't need to move when the real model arrives.

+//! The Dhamaka inference runtime, written in Rust and compiled to WebAssembly.

+//! ## Why Rust
+//!
+//! Transformer inference is a lot of hot f32 math — matmul, RMSNorm, softmax,
+//! rotary embeddings, residual adds — repeated once per generated token.
+//! JavaScript can do this, but Rust compiled to WebAssembly runs it at
+//! roughly native speed, inside any modern browser tab, with zero runtime
+//! dependencies. That's the entire point of Dhamaka.
+//!
+//! ## What's in here
+//!
+//! - [`tensor`] — matmul, RMSNorm, softmax, rotary, SiLU, residual
+//! - [`sampler`] — temperature + top-k + top-p + greedy
+//! - [`transformer`] — a minimal forward-pass kernel using the primitives
+//! - [`model`] — a tiny tied-weights model that the ABI drives end-to-end
+//! - [`rng`] — deterministic xorshift RNG, seeded from the prompt
+//! - [`abi`] — the `#[no_mangle] extern "C"` surface exposed to WebAssembly

+//! binary format. Until those weights are packaged, this module builds a

+//! full inference pipeline end-to-end: embedding lookup → N transformer
+//! blocks → LM head → sampling → detokenization.
+//!

+//! compiled from Rust, which is the entire point of Dhamaka's runtime layer.

Subject: [PATCH 03/29] Document the test suite in the README

Add a dedicated tests section that lists every test file with its count
and coverage, explains how to run Rust + JS + end-to-end wasm tests
independently or together, diagrams the wasm-engine.test.js path that
loads the real .wasm from Node and drives it through the ABI, and
sketches the two-job CI pipeline.

Numbers reflected in the README match the actual runners:
- 27 Rust tests (cargo test in crates/dhamaka-runtime)
- 45 JS tests (node --test across packages/*/test)
- 72 total, zero test-runner dependencies

+└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

+
+These four pass in Node, so every token in the README's "real today" list is real. The same `WasmEngine` runs in the browser via `instantiateStreaming` — no fork.
+
+### CI

+
+No green CI, no merge.

Subject: [PATCH 04/29] Animated SVG banner for the README title

Replace the static ASCII title with docs/banner.svg, an animated SVG
that renders the DHAMAKA block letters with:

- a rainbow gradient that cycles through six colors on an 8s loop
- a soft neon glow filter around the letters
- a pulsing radial spotlight behind everything
- a subtle scanline drifting top-to-bottom across the block
- two accent stars flanking the tagline that cycle colors on a 4s loop

GitHub renders SMIL animations in SVGs loaded via <img>, so the banner
is actually animated on the rendered README. A static ASCII fallback
is preserved below the <picture> for renderers that don't do SMIL.

Also bumped the feature chips: added the Rust chip and updated the
runtime size chip from ~100MB (the model) to ~56 KB (the wasm).

Subject: [PATCH 05/29] Prepare v0.1.0: changelog, staging script, release
 workflow
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Everything needed to cut a tagged release and publish the `dhamaka`
npm package. The actual `npm publish` step is gated on an NPM_TOKEN
secret being present, so the workflow runs end-to-end safely before
credentials are in place.

CHANGELOG.md
- First entry documenting the Rust runtime, SDK, hub, extension,
  playground, CI, and the v0.1.0 honesty caveats.

scripts/prepare-publish.mjs
- Vendors packages/runtime/src + the compiled dhamaka-runtime.wasm
  into packages/sdk/_staging/src/_runtime/
- Rewrites the SDK's @dhamaka/runtime import to a relative path so
  the published tarball depends on nothing at runtime
- Rewrites WasmEngine's DEFAULT_WASM_URL to resolve the bundled wasm
  via new URL("./dhamaka-runtime.wasm", import.meta.url)
- Writes a standalone package.json (no workspace refs, no deps)
- Copies README/LICENSE/CHANGELOG into the staged package
- Smoke-imports the staged entry point before declaring success

Verified by `npm run release:dry`:
  dhamaka@0.1.0
    package size: 43.7 kB
    unpacked size: 127.0 kB
    total files: 15 (includes the 56 KB wasm)

.github/workflows/release.yml
- Triggered on v* tag push
- Installs rust toolchain + wasm32-unknown-unknown
- cargo test, build wasm, npm test
- node scripts/prepare-publish.mjs
- Verifies tag version matches staged package.json version
- Publishes to npm with --provenance if NPM_TOKEN is set (gracefully
  skips otherwise, so the pipeline is safe to dry-run)
- Creates a GitHub release named "Dhamaka vX.Y.Z" with release notes
  extracted from CHANGELOG.md and both the .tgz and raw .wasm attached

packages/sdk/PUBLISHING.md
- Step-by-step for cutting a release, setting up NPM_TOKEN, and
  manual publish fallback

Root scripts:
- npm run build:wasm        — compile the Rust crate to .wasm
- npm run build:wasm:check  — also run cargo test
- npm run prepublish-stage  — vendor into _staging
- npm run release:dry       — stage + npm pack --dry-run

.gitignore ignores packages/sdk/_staging/ and *.tgz since they're
rebuilt from scratch on every release.

+# Changelog
+
+All notable changes to Dhamaka are documented in this file.
+
+The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/)
+and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
+
+## [0.1.0] — 2026-04-11
+
+The first cut. End-to-end browser-native LLM stack with a real Rust inference
+runtime compiled to WebAssembly, a cross-site model cache, and a JS SDK that
+drives it all.
+
+### Runtime (Rust → WebAssembly)
+
+- New crate `crates/dhamaka-runtime` written in pure Rust, zero dependencies.
+- Tensor primitives: `matmul`, `rmsnorm`, numerically stable `softmax`,
+  `silu`, in-place `add` / `mul`, and rotary position embeddings (`rope`).
+- Sampler: one-pass temperature + top-k + top-p + greedy with a deterministic
+  xorshift64* RNG seeded from prompt bytes.
+- Transformer kernel: Llama-style block (RMSNorm → Q/K/V → RoPE →
+  KV-cached self-attention → output projection → RMSNorm → SwiGLU FFN →
+  residual) with `MAX_CTX = 512`.
+- Tiny random-weights v0.1 model (32-dim hidden, 2 layers, 1 head, 64-entry
+  vocab) so the whole pipeline exercises real f32 math end-to-end.
+- `#[no_mangle] extern "C"` ABI exposed to WebAssembly:
+  `dhamaka_version`, `dhamaka_alloc`, `dhamaka_free`, `dhamaka_init`,
+  `dhamaka_destroy`, `dhamaka_reset`, `dhamaka_set_sampling`,
+  `dhamaka_feed_prompt`, `dhamaka_next_token`.
+- `build.sh` helper that installs the `wasm32-unknown-unknown` target on
+  demand, compiles `release` with fat LTO, and stages the resulting 56 KB
+  `.wasm` into `packages/hub/public/runtime/`.
+- 27 native `cargo test` cases covering every primitive, the sampler laws,
+  forward-pass determinism, and position sensitivity via RoPE + KV cache.
+
+### SDK (`dhamaka`)
+
+- `Dhamaka.load(modelId, options)` fetches a model through the hub, loads
+  the compiled WASM runtime, and returns an instance with `complete`,
+  `stream`, `chat`, `info`, `evict`, `localModels`, and `unload`.
+- `Chat` class with system prompts, streaming, reset, and per-turn history.
+- `HubClient` that speaks a typed `postMessage` protocol with the hub iframe
+  and falls back to per-origin IndexedDB when the iframe is unreachable or
+  to an in-memory store when running in Node.
+- Tiered storage mode reporting — `shared`, `storage-access`, `partitioned`,
+  `site-local`, `extension` — with `requestStorageAccess()` for a one-click
+  user-gated opt-in to unpartitioned storage.
+- Auto-detection of the Dhamaka browser extension; when present the SDK
+  routes all hub messages through it to sidestep storage partitioning.
+- OpenAI-compatible `/v1/chat/completions` shim with streaming + non-streaming
+  that robustly parses `string` / `Blob` / `ArrayBuffer` / `TypedArray` bodies.
+
+### Runtime adapter (`@dhamaka/runtime`)
+
+- `Engine` abstract interface.
+- `WasmEngine` — loads the compiled Rust `.wasm`, verifies the ABI version,
+  writes prompt bytes into WASM linear memory via `dhamaka_alloc`, drives
+  `dhamaka_feed_prompt` + `dhamaka_next_token` in a loop, decodes UTF-8, and
+  yields tokens. Honors `AbortSignal`.
+- `MockEngine` — dependency-free stand-in for development when the real
+  runtime isn't available. Streams canned responses at ~45 tok/s.
+- `createEngine({ backend })` that prefers `WasmEngine` in browsers and
+  `MockEngine` in Node.
+
+### Hub (`@dhamaka/hub`)
+
+- Static site that runs in a hidden iframe embedded by every Dhamaka-powered
+  consumer. Stores models in IndexedDB and streams `ArrayBuffer`s back over
+  `postMessage` using transferables (zero-copy).
+- SHA-256 content-addressed integrity checks on every artifact.
+- Storage Access API integration so strict browsers can still get
+  unpartitioned storage on a user gesture.
+- Serves the compiled `dhamaka-runtime.wasm` alongside model artifacts.
+- JSON Schema draft-07 for the manifest format.
+
+### Browser extension (`@dhamaka/extension`)
+
+- Manifest V3 skeleton with a background service worker that stores models in
+  the extension's own origin — shared across every site on the machine,
+  sidestepping storage partitioning entirely.
+- Content script bridge (`postMessage` ↔ `chrome.runtime.sendMessage`).
+- SDK detects the extension via an injected `window.__dhamaka_extension__`
+  marker and prefers it over the iframe hub.
+- Options page listing cached models with one-click eviction.
+
+### Playground (`@dhamaka/playground`)
+
+- Zero-dependency Node dev server that runs the hub on `:5174` and the
+  playground on `:5173`, serving the compiled WASM with the right MIME and
+  CORS headers.
+- Live UI with a model picker, progress bar, live telemetry (cache hit,
+  load ms, tokens/sec, backend, memory), stateful chat, abort/stop button,
+  history reset, and eviction controls.
+- Importmap-based module wiring — no bundler, no build step for JS edits.
+
+### Tests, CI, and infrastructure
+
+- **45 JS tests** (`node --test`, zero dependencies) covering the SDK, the
+  hub, the OpenAI shim, all engine adapters, and four end-to-end integration
+  tests that load the real compiled `.wasm` in Node and drive it through the
+  full ABI.
+- **27 Rust tests** (`cargo test`) covering every primitive.
+- **CI** (`.github/workflows/ci.yml`) with two jobs: `rust` compiles the
+  crate, runs cargo tests, and uploads the wasm artifact; `js` downloads the
+  artifact and runs `node --test` on Node 20 and Node 22, plus a smoke-test
+  that curl-s every dev-server endpoint.
+- Animated SVG banner at the top of the README (rainbow gradient + pulsing
+  spotlight + drifting scanline) served from `docs/banner.svg`.
+
+### Known limitations for v0.1.0
+
+- The v0.1 model is a 32-dim / 2-layer random-weights transformer, so output
+  is stream-of-tokens, not coherent English. When the SmolLM2-360M Q4
+  artifacts arrive they'll plug into the same `dhamaka_init` entry point
+  without SDK changes.
+- No SIMD128 build of the runtime yet (`-C target-feature=+simd128` is a
+  one-line change; it's gated on having a baseline benchmark).
+- No WebGPU fast path.
+- The other models in the registry (`dhamaka-code`, `dhamaka-sql`,
+  `dhamaka-json`, `dhamaka-summarize`, `dhamaka-embed`) are listed as
+  `status: planned`.

+# Publishing `dhamaka` to npm
+
+Releases are tag-driven. Push `vX.Y.Z` and the release workflow
+(`.github/workflows/release.yml`) handles everything: wasm build, tests,
+staging, GitHub release with artifacts, and npm publish.
+
+## One-time setup
+
+1. Reserve the `dhamaka` name on npm (or, if you already own it, skip).
+2. Create an npm automation token: <https://www.npmjs.com/settings/~/tokens>.
+   Use an **Automation** token so 2FA doesn't block CI.
+3. Add it to the GitHub repo secrets:
+   `Settings → Secrets and variables → Actions → New repository secret`
+   - Name: `NPM_TOKEN`
+   - Value: the token from step 2
+4. (Optional) Enable OIDC trusted publishing if you prefer provenance over
+   tokens. The workflow already passes `--provenance`, which npm requires
+   for verified builds from GitHub Actions.
+
+## Cut a release
+
+```bash
+# Bump the version in packages/sdk/package.json and CHANGELOG.md, then:
+git add packages/sdk/package.json CHANGELOG.md
+git commit -m "release: v0.1.1"
+git tag -a v0.1.1 -m "v0.1.1"
+git push origin main
+git push origin v0.1.1
+```
+
+The tag push triggers the release workflow, which will:
+
+1. Install Rust + `wasm32-unknown-unknown`
+2. `cargo test` the runtime crate
+3. Build `dhamaka-runtime.wasm` via `crates/dhamaka-runtime/build.sh`
+4. Run the JS test suite (`npm test`)
+5. Run `scripts/prepare-publish.mjs` to stage `packages/sdk/_staging/`
+6. `npm pack` the staged package
+7. Verify the tag matches the package version
+8. `npm publish --access public --provenance` (if `NPM_TOKEN` is set)
+9. Create a GitHub release named "Dhamaka vX.Y.Z" with release notes
+   extracted from `CHANGELOG.md` and the tarball + raw wasm attached
+
+If `NPM_TOKEN` is **not** set, the workflow still runs end-to-end but skips
+step 8 gracefully — useful for dry-running the pipeline before flipping the
+publish switch.
+
+## Manual publish
+
+You don't need the workflow. If you have your npm credentials locally:
+
+```bash
+# from the repo root
+crates/dhamaka-runtime/build.sh    # compile the wasm
+node scripts/prepare-publish.mjs   # stage packages/sdk/_staging/
+cd packages/sdk/_staging
+npm publish --access public
+```
+
+## What ends up in the tarball
+
+```

+```
+
+The published `dhamaka` package depends on **nothing**. It bundles the
+compiled WASM runtime, so `npm install dhamaka` followed by
+`import { Dhamaka } from "dhamaka"` is all a consumer needs.
+
+## Version policy
+
+- `major`: breaking ABI changes to the Rust runtime, or breaking changes to
+  the `Dhamaka` SDK class.
+- `minor`: new features, new engines, new models in the registry, new
+  public SDK methods.
+- `patch`: bug fixes, doc updates, internal refactors.
+
+The published npm version is always the same as the `packages/sdk/package.json`
+version, which is always the same as the git tag without its `v` prefix.
+The release workflow verifies this and fails the build if they diverge.

Subject: [PATCH 06/29] Add docs/GOALS.md: the north-star document for the
 pivot
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Write down what I'm actually building, what I'm explicitly not building,
and why the shape of the product is a reflex layer for every input
field on the web — not a browser LLM runtime.

Key points captured:

- The pivot: this is a smart-field SDK, not a chat LLM. The runtime
  space (Transformers.js, WebLLM, wllama, window.ai) is crowded and
  I lose every comparison there. The empty box is the cross-browser,
  developer-facing, task-SDK layer above the runtime. Nobody ships it.
- The use cases, concrete: city→state autofill, contextual spellcheck,
  smart paste, cross-field inference, tone rewriting, format
  validation, per-keystroke tab completion. Every one impossible as
  a server-side product because the latency and per-call economics
  kill it. Every one trivial locally because calls are free.
- Competitive map limited to on-device players only. Cloud AI is not
  a competitor — the latency kills it.
- Technical principles: SDK is the product, runtime is a dependency;
  calls are free, call often; task-specific beats general; rules
  first, model second; resident not on-demand; shared across tabs
  and sites; cross-browser is non-negotiable; browser extension is
  v1 not phase 2; demos over docs.
- v0.1 scope: SharedWorker + Transformers.js + SmartField web
  component + three working playground demos (address autofill,
  spellcheck, smart paste) + window.ai adapter + cache adapter +
  browser extension with real inference wiring. No Rust runtime in
  v0.1 — it stays as reference code.
- Non-goals, explicit: not a chat SDK, not a general-purpose runtime,
  not competing on tok/s, not a new inference engine, not a server
  product, not fighting window.ai (use it as a fast path instead).
- Open questions flagged: whether SmolLM2-135M meets a 50 ms
  per-keystroke budget in pure WASM, whether Transformers.js's
  customCache hook is complete, whether window.ai is stable enough
  to depend on, how much of "smart paste" can be done without a
  model at all.
- Name: Dhamaka is wrong for this product and will be replaced
  before the first public release. Hunch is my current top pick.

+# Goals
+
+> The north-star document for this project. Written to keep me honest about
+> what I'm building, what I'm *not* building, and what the winning shape of
+> the product actually is.
+
+## The one-liner
+
+**A cross-browser JavaScript SDK that gives every `<input>` and `<textarea>`
+on the web on-device AI reflexes. Zero network latency, zero API cost,
+zero privacy exposure. Drop it in, every field gets smarter.**
+
+## What this is (and why it's a pivot)
+
+I started this thinking about "a small LLM that runs in a browser tab."
+That framing is wrong. The browser-LLM runtime space is crowded:
+Transformers.js, WebLLM, wllama, Candle, ONNX Runtime Web, Chrome's
+`window.ai`. Those are *runtimes*. Runtimes are a commodity layer and
+Hugging Face plus Google are going to keep winning them.
+
+The interesting product isn't a runtime. It's the **reflex layer**: a
+resident, keystroke-level AI service that lives in every tab, watches
+every input, and makes the web feel predictive. Nobody ships that. Not
+Hugging Face, not Google, not Apple. That's the gap I'm building into.
+
+## The problem, in concrete terms
+
+Web forms in 2026 are still dumb:
+
+- I type "San Francisco" in a city field and the state field stays blank.
+- I type "forest green" in a color field and nothing happens.
+- I type "next Tuesday" in a date field and it doesn't parse.
+- I paste a business card into a form and it drops as one blob instead of
+  splitting into name / email / phone / company.
+- My spellchecker underlines "recieve" but has no idea the sentence
+  "I'll see you their" has a problem.
+- Autocomplete shows me things I typed before, never things I *might*
+  type.
+
+Every one of these is something an on-device LLM can fix in under 50 ms
+with no network, no API key, no rate limits, and no privacy exposure.
+Nobody ships it because the economics of server-side inference kill the
+use cases before they start. My product fixes the economics by running
+locally, which makes the whole class of features trivially affordable.
+
+## Why on-device wins (the real unlock)
+
+When inference is local, five constraints disappear at once:
+
+| constraint (server-side) | on-device |
+|---|---|
+| round-trip network latency (200–2000 ms) | 0 ms |
+| per-call API cost | 0 ¢ |
+| rate limits, 429s, per-user throttles | none |
+| every keystroke uploaded | nothing leaves the device |
+| dependent on uptime of a provider | always-on |
+
+This isn't a "saves money" improvement. It's a different physics. Calls
+are now effectively free function invocations, which means I can fire
+them inside `oninput` at 40 Hz per field and nobody cares. That unlocks
+features server-side products literally cannot build, no matter how much
+money they spend:
+
+- Per-keystroke tab completion on every field, not just search boxes.
+- Live semantic spellcheck that explains why a word is wrong in context.
+- Cross-field inference that updates state, country, timezone, and
+  currency the moment the user types a city.
+- Smart paste that splits a pasted blob into the right form fields
+  synchronously, before the user blinks.
+- Real-time form validation in natural language ("94103 is in California
+  but you selected Texas").
+- Tone rewriting on any `<textarea>` with zero round trip.
+- Context-aware placeholders and help text that adapt to what the user
+  has already filled in.
+- Privacy-preserving form analytics — the site owner learns where users
+  hesitate, without a single keystroke ever leaving the device.
+
+None of these need a 7B chat model. They need a tiny, warm, resident
+inference service and a thin SDK on top.
+
+## Who's actually in this space (the short list)
+
+Every competitor I'm willing to take seriously runs on-device. Cloud AI
+products aren't competitors — the latency kills them for everything I
+care about. This is the real list:
+
+### Platform built-ins (the biggest threat)
+
+- **Chrome `window.ai` / Gemini Nano.** Chrome 138+ ships a resident
+  ~3–4 GB Gemini Nano, accessible from every origin via the Prompt,
+  Translator, Summarizer, Writer, Rewriter, and Proofreader APIs. This
+  literally addresses the use case — for Chrome users only, with one
+  huge general model Google controls, and with no SDK layer above it.
+- **Apple Intelligence Writing Tools.** On-device 3B model wired into
+  every native text control in Safari 18+ / macOS 15+. Not callable
+  from JavaScript, not available as a developer API. Apple-only.
+- **Edge / Microsoft.** Sidebar-level integration, no developer surface.
+  Not a competitor for an SDK.
+
+### Runtimes (one layer below me)
+
+- **Transformers.js** (HuggingFace) — the default general-purpose
+  in-browser inference today. A runtime, not a product. No cross-site
+  cache, no SharedWorker story, no task-SDK.
+- **WebLLM** (MLC) — bigger models via WebGPU. Runtime only.
+- **wllama** — llama.cpp in pure WASM. Runtime only.
+- **ONNX Runtime Web**, **Candle**, **TensorFlow.js** — lower-level
+  primitives.
+
+None of these ship a `<smart-field>` component or a cross-site cache.
+They are not competitors. They are dependencies.
+
+### The actual gap
+
+```
+                  SOLVES THE USE CASE?
+                   yes                          no
+                    │                            │

+   │ (single-vendor)│                            │           │
+   └────────────────┼────────────────────────────┼───────────┘
+                    │                            │

+   │                │      (empty box)           │ wllama
+   │                │                            │ ONNX RT Web
+   └────────────────┴────────────────────────────┴───────────┘
+
+    cross-browser?      yes                             n/a
+```
+
+I'm building the top-left box. Cross-browser, developer-facing,
+on-device, form-intelligent. Nobody lives there.
+
+## Non-goals (important for staying focused)
+
+This list matters more than the goals list. Every hour spent on a
+non-goal is an hour not spent on the real product.
+
+- **Not a chat SDK.** `Dhamaka.load().complete("hello")` is not the
+  product. If a developer wants to ship a chatbot, they should use
+  Transformers.js directly.
+- **Not a general-purpose browser LLM runtime.** Transformers.js already
+  is that. I'm using it, not replacing it.
+- **Not competing on raw model size or tok/s.** WebLLM will beat me on
+  both for years. I don't care.
+- **Not a new inference engine.** The Rust crate in this repo is a
+  learning exercise and a possible v2 swap target. It is not the
+  critical path. Real releases build on Transformers.js (and `window.ai`
+  where available).
+- **Not a server product.** Nothing I ship touches a server I run.
+- **Not a commercial SaaS yet.** The first job is proving the category
+  works in the open-source tier. Monetization is a v2 question.
+- **Not fighting Chrome's `window.ai`.** I use it as a fast path on
+  Chrome. I don't pretend my own runtime is faster than Google's.
+
+## Technical principles
+
+These are the rules I hold myself to when making architecture choices.
+
+1. **The SDK is the product, the runtime is a dependency.** The thing
+   developers touch is `<smart-field>` / `SmartForm` / `SmartText`. The
+   runtime underneath can be Transformers.js, `window.ai`, wllama, or my
+   own Rust crate — the SDK surface doesn't move when the runtime swaps.
+
+2. **Calls are free; call often.** Design every feature assuming I can
+   fire the model inside `oninput`. If a feature doesn't get better
+   because of that, it's probably not the right feature.
+
+3. **Task-specific beats general.** A 20 MB MiniLM embedding model plus a
+   100 KB gazetteer beats a 360 MB general chat model for 70% of smart-
+   field tasks. The SDK decides which micro-model (or lookup table) each
+   task uses. Developers think in tasks, not in models.
+
+4. **Rules first, model second.** Deterministic cases (phone format,
+   ZIP validation, ISO country codes) short-circuit around the model.
+   The model handles the semantic long tail the tables can't anticipate.
+
+5. **Resident, not on-demand.** The model lives in a SharedWorker,
+   warm, KV-cached, primed with the page's form context. Cold starts
+   are a design failure.
+
+6. **Shared across tabs, shared across sites.** One model instance per
+   user, not per tab. One downloaded copy per user, not per origin.
+   Shared-across-tabs is a SharedWorker. Shared-across-sites is the
+   browser extension (v1) or the hub iframe (legacy fallback).
+
+7. **Cross-browser is a hard constraint.** If it doesn't work on
+   Firefox and Safari it doesn't ship. That's my entire differentiation
+   from Chrome built-ins.
+
+8. **The browser extension is v1, not phase 2.** Storage partitioning
+   is killing the iframe hub and will only get stricter. The extension
+   is the only long-term-robust way to share a model cache across
+   origins. The moat weakens every month it isn't shipped.
+
+9. **Demos over docs.** Every feature ships with a working playground
+   demo before it ships a single word of documentation. If I can't make
+   a 30-second screencast of it feeling magical, it isn't ready.
+
+## v0.1 scope — the spike that proves the idea
+
+The smallest thing I can ship that proves the architecture works and the
+UX is as good as I think it is.
+
+- [ ] SharedWorker that loads a small model via Transformers.js
+  (SmolLM2-135M-Instruct or Phi-3-mini-q4, whichever runs faster in
+  pure WASM without WebGPU)
+- [ ] KV cache persists across `oninput` calls on the same page
+- [ ] Page context pre-warmed on `DOMContentLoaded` with the form's
+  field labels and any `aria-label` / `placeholder` hints
+- [ ] `SmartField` web component that wraps an `<input>` and takes a
+  `task` attribute: `city-to-state`, `freeform-completion`,
+  `spellcheck`, `format-validate`
+- [ ] Three working demos in the playground:
+  1. **Address autofill.** Type "San Francisco" → state, country,
+     timezone, currency, ZIP pattern fill in live, <50 ms.
+  2. **Contextual spellcheck.** Type "i'll see you their" in a textarea
+     → "their" underlined, hover shows "did you mean there?".
+  3. **Smart paste.** Paste a contact blob into a form → name, email,
+     phone, company split into the right fields, synchronously.
+- [ ] `window.ai` detect-and-delegate adapter. When Chrome's Prompt API
+  is available, use it. Otherwise use the Transformers.js backend.
+  Same SDK surface either way.
+- [ ] `TransformersJSCacheAdapter` that routes the Transformers.js cache
+  through my hub origin, so consuming sites share the downloaded model.
+- [ ] Manifest V3 browser extension that owns the model cache at the
+  OS level, sidestepping storage partitioning entirely. The existing
+  extension skeleton is a starting point but needs real inference
+  wiring and a published listing on the Chrome Web Store.
+
+No Rust runtime in v0.1. The crate stays in the repo as reference code.
+
+## v0.2 — making it a product
+
+- A proper task registry (`dhamaka-autofill`, `dhamaka-spellcheck`,
+  `dhamaka-complete`, `dhamaka-rewrite`, `dhamaka-paste-extract`)
+- Per-task micro-models, each loaded lazily the first time the task is
+  used on the page
+- React / Vue / Svelte bindings (`useSmartField`) so framework devs
+  don't have to think about web components
+- Benchmark harness: cold-start ms, warm tok/s, memory per tab
+- A real README that positions the product as the smart-field SDK, not
+  the browser LLM runtime
+
+## v2+ — the long-term bets
+
+- Speculative decoding: cheap static matcher (n-gram, trie) proposes,
+  LLM verifies. Gets tok/s into the 500+ range for autocomplete.
+- WebGPU fast path for users who have it.
+- A revisit of the Rust runtime once Transformers.js's overhead becomes
+  the bottleneck on very small task-specific models.
+- Opt-in federated learning: sites can feed back "the user accepted /
+  rejected this suggestion" signals to improve the shipped models
+  without uploading keystrokes.
+
+## Success criteria
+
+How I'll know v0.1 worked:
+
+1. **The demo makes people say "wait, that's local?"** — the UX feels
+   server-quality but the network tab shows nothing after page load.
+2. **A developer can integrate it in <5 minutes.** `npm install`, drop
+   in a `<smart-field>`, done. No ML background required.
+3. **At least one other developer ships something I didn't anticipate.**
+   That's the signal that the SDK is generic enough to be a platform.
+4. **Transformers.js cache adapter is actually adopted** — either by me,
+   by a HF example, or by another on-device product — proving the
+   cross-site cache idea has legs.
+
+## Open questions
+
+Things I don't know the answer to yet and should resolve before v0.1:
+
+- Is SmolLM2-135M fast enough in pure WASM (no WebGPU) for a 50 ms
+  per-keystroke budget? I need to benchmark this before committing to
+  it as the default.
+- Is Transformers.js's `env.customCache` hook actually sufficient to
+  route all model loads through a custom provider, or does it leak
+  around the adapter for some asset types?
+- Will the Chrome `window.ai` Prompt API be stable enough to depend on
+  by the time I ship, or is it still moving too fast?
+- How much of the "smart paste" demo can actually be done with regex
+  and a gazetteer alone, without any model call? I suspect more than
+  half. That informs how much model I actually need to load up front.
+- What's the right default task set to ship in v0.1? Autofill +
+  spellcheck + paste-extract is my current bet, but I haven't validated
+  any of these with real users.
+
+## Why now
+
+Three things make this the right moment:
+
+1. **The runtimes finally work.** Transformers.js + SmolLM2 is the
+   first combination where a small LLM runs fast enough in pure WASM
+   to be called per keystroke. That wasn't true 18 months ago.
+2. **Chrome is signalling the category.** `window.ai` shipping in
+   Chrome is Google saying "on-device AI in the browser is where this
+   is going." But Chrome's single-vendor solution leaves 40% of the
+   web on Safari and Firefox with nothing, and even Chrome users get
+   a general-purpose 4 GB model when they'd often rather have a 50 MB
+   task-specific one.
+3. **The cross-site cache window is still open.** Storage partitioning
+   is tightening but the browser-extension workaround is legal, robust,
+   and nobody has shipped the "model cache extension" play yet. Two
+   years from now that space will be taken. It isn't today.
+
+## Naming
+
+The current name is **Dhamaka**. Dhamaka means "explosion / blast" in
+Hindi, which is the opposite of what this product is: small, quiet,
+local, tucked into a tab. The name is wrong for the product and will be
+replaced before the first public release.
+
+Candidates I'm considering, all framed around "small, intuitive, always
+on, helps you without getting in the way":
+
+- **Hunch** — "I have a hunch you meant California." Matches the
+  semantic-autofill framing perfectly. 5 letters, one syllable, under-
+  used in tech. Current top pick.
+- **Mote** — "a mote of an LLM in every tab." Matches the size story
+  (tiny, ambient, everywhere). 4 letters.
+- **Reflex** — literal: keystroke-level reflexes for every input.
+- **Pith** — essence, distilled. Under-used, zero collisions.
+- **Wit** — quick, clever, small.
+
+Name lock-in is a v0.1 blocker but not a v0.0 blocker. I can ship the
+spike under the current name and rename on the release commit.
+
+## The one thing to remember
+
+**I am not building a browser LLM. I am building a reflex layer for
+every input field on the web, using on-device inference as the physical
+substrate that makes it affordable.**
+
+When in doubt, optimize for that sentence.

Subject: [PATCH 07/29] Pivot to SmartField: reflex layer for every input field
 on the web
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Rework the project around the north-star in docs/GOALS.md. The SDK is no
longer "a browser LLM runtime with a chat API." It is a task-oriented
reflex layer that turns every <input> and <textarea> into an intelligent
field — with the runtime underneath demoted to a swappable dependency.

Why:
- Nobody ships a cross-browser, developer-facing, on-device AI SDK for
  web forms. Runtimes (Transformers.js, wllama, WebLLM) sit one layer
  too low. Platform built-ins (Chrome window.ai, Apple Writing Tools)
  are single-vendor. The empty box between them is the actual product.
- Cloud AI can't do keystroke-level reflexes — latency, cost, rate
  limits, and privacy all kill the use cases before they start. On-
  device is free and instant, which unlocks the whole feature class.

The new SDK surface:

- SmartField (packages/sdk/src/smart-field.js)
  Wraps an <input>, routes oninput through the task registry, fires a
  smart-field:resolved CustomEvent with the structured result. Supports
  onResult callback, dispose, refresh, eager/rules-only modes.

- SmartForm (packages/sdk/src/smart-form.js)
  Cross-field inference on a <form>. Takes "sourceName → targetName"
  rules mapped to "taskId:resultField" selectors and auto-propagates
  results to target fields. Manual edits lock a field from auto-fill
  until explicit unlock().

- SmartText (packages/sdk/src/smart-text.js)
  Contextual spellcheck on a <textarea>. Listens for typing, runs the
  spellcheck task, exposes applySuggestion(index) for one-click fixes.

- attachSmartPaste (packages/sdk/src/paste-extract.js)
  Form-level paste handler. Extracts contact fields from pasted blobs
  and populates the form, respecting fields the user has already typed.

- reflex service (packages/sdk/src/reflex.js)
  Module-level singleton that owns the "resident" engine. Lazy-loads on
  first task that needs the model, shared across every SmartField on
  the page. v0.2 will upgrade this to a SharedWorker without API break.

- Task registry (packages/sdk/src/tasks.js)
  registerTask / getTask / listTasks / runTask. Each task is rules-first
  (fast path, always runs) with an optional slow path (model) that
  fires only when the fast path is uncertain. Ships with three working
  built-ins:

  1. city-to-state: 100+ city gazetteer with diacritic normalisation,
     alias matching, Levenshtein fuzzy fallback, and an LLM long-tail
     handler. Returns state / stateName / country / countryName / tz /
     currency as structured fields.

  2. spellcheck: common misspellings table + context-sensitive regex
     rules for homophones ("see you their" → "there", "your welcome"
     → "you're", etc.), with an LLM fallback for the unrecognised long
     tail.

  3. paste-extract: regex for emails / phones / URLs / Twitter handles,
     heuristic for names (2–4 cap-case words), non-freemail-domain
     company inference, LLM fallback.

Engine backends:

- WindowAiBackend (packages/runtime/src/window-ai-backend.js) NEW
  Chrome 138+ Prompt API / Gemini Nano. Resident shared model. Factory
  prefers this when available.

- Factory priority updated: window.ai → wasm → mock. Same createEngine
  API, auto-detection picks the fastest path per environment.

Playground rebuild:

- packages/playground/public/index.html is now a demo index with cards
  linking to the three working demos.
- demos/autofill.html — live city-to-state with telemetry showing
  source (rule / fuzzy / model), confidence, and resolve time.
- demos/spellcheck.html — SmartText with click-to-apply suggestion chips.
- demos/paste.html — attachSmartPaste wired to a contact form with a
  dashed drop zone that flashes on successful extraction.
- demos/demos.css — shared styles for all three demo pages.
- Old chat UI relocated to /chat.html (still works for the legacy
  Dhamaka.load() API).

Tests:

- 75 JS tests now (was 45), all green, zero dependencies.
- 22 tests cover the tasks module (city-to-state, spellcheck, paste-
  extract, registry, runTask) including exact / alias / case / fuzzy /
  international / nonsense inputs, homophone-in-context detection, and
  paste extraction with freemail filtering.
- 5 SmartField tests covering construction-time resolution, event
  dispatch, re-run on input, dispose, and bad-arg rejection.
- 5 SmartForm tests covering cross-field propagation, manual-edit
  locks, unlock, tasks shorthand, and non-form rejection.
- A tiny packages/sdk/test/_fake-dom.js helper implements just the
  slice of the DOM the SmartField API touches so tests run in plain
  Node with no jsdom dependency.
- All 27 Rust tests and all existing JS tests (45 runtime / hub /
  openai-shim / chat / hub-client) still pass.
- 102 tests total.

SDK metadata:

- packages/sdk/package.json bumped with a new description and keywords
  reflecting the SmartField framing (on-device, autofill, spellcheck,
  smart-field, window.ai). Exports map adds smart-field / smart-form /
  smart-text / tasks / reflex subpaths.
- Legacy Dhamaka.load / complete / stream / chat / OpenAI shim paths
  remain for backwards compat and are still covered by their existing
  tests, but are explicitly positioned as "for apps that want raw
  model access, not the SmartField surface".

README:

- Rewritten around the SmartField framing. New "what is this" leads
  with the three SmartField primitives. New "killer use cases" section
  with 10 concrete field-level features that are impossible for cloud
  AI. New task registry table showing shipping vs planned tasks. New
  stack diagram showing SmartField → tasks → reflex → engine with
  backends fanning out. API section now documents SmartField /
  SmartForm / SmartText / attachSmartPaste / reflex.configure, with
  the legacy Dhamaka.load section at the bottom. Test totals updated
  to 75 JS + 27 Rust = 102.

.gitignore: added package-lock.json (workspace has no external deps
to lock; it was adding noise to git status).

This commit is authored AND committed as protosphinx. Going forward
all commits will be, via GIT_AUTHOR_* and GIT_COMMITTER_* env vars on
every invocation.

 ## ✦ what is this
 
-Dhamaka is a small, fast, instruction-tuned language model that runs **entirely inside your browser** on top of WebAssembly. No server. No API key. No telemetry. The model downloads **once in your user's lifetime** and every Dhamaka-powered site they visit afterwards reuses the same cached weights.
+**A cross-browser JavaScript SDK that gives every `<input>` and `<textarea>` on the web on-device AI reflexes.** Drop it in, every form gets intelligent. Runs 100% in the user's tab — no API keys, no round trips, no rate limits, no privacy exposure, no monthly bill.
 
-That last part is the whole idea. Every on-device LLM project so far forces each website to redownload the model. Dhamaka breaks that pattern with a cross-origin model hub and a clean SDK any app can drop in.
+Three things ship today:
+
+- **`SmartField`** — a tiny wrapper around an `<input>` that routes keystrokes through a task-oriented inference pipeline (autofill, completion, format validation) and fires a resolved event with the result.
+- **`SmartForm`** — declares cross-field inference rules (`"city → state"`, `"city → timezone"`) on a `<form>` and propagates results automatically. Manual edits are respected.
+- **`SmartText`** — watches a `<textarea>` for contextual spellcheck and proofreading — the kind that catches "see you their" and "your welcome", not just dictionary misses.
+
+Plus `attachSmartPaste(form)` so pasted business cards / signatures / contact blobs split themselves into the right fields synchronously.
+
+Under the hood every task is **rules-first, model-second**: a tiny gazetteer / regex / static table answers 80% of real inputs in microseconds, and an on-device LLM handles the semantic long tail only when the fast path is uncertain.

+Every one of these is impossible as a server-side product because network latency, per-call cost, or rate limits kill it. Every one becomes trivial when inference is free and instant:
+
+- Type "San Francisco" → state, country, timezone, currency fill in live before you finish typing
+- Type "i'll see you their tomorrow" → "their" flagged as wrong, "there" suggested, one click to fix
+- Paste a business card blob into a form → name, email, phone, company, website split themselves into the right fields
+- Type "forest green" in a hex-color field → `#228B22`
+- Type "next Tuesday" in a date field → parsed to an ISO date
+- Type "1 Infinite Loop" → city, state, ZIP auto-complete
+- Type an email ending in `@stripe.com` → company field auto-fills "Stripe"
+- Type "SF" in a city field → expanded to "San Francisco, California, USA, Pacific Time"
+- Start typing in French in an English field → live translation offer
+- Submit a form with mismatched shipping/billing ZIP and state → natural-language explanation of the conflict
 
-One download. Every site after that is an instant cache hit.
+All of them run on-device, per keystroke, for free, on every browser, in <50 ms.

+Developers think in **tasks**, not in models. Each task is a small, typed function that turns an input string into a structured inference. The SDK decides what runs — a lookup table, a regex, a fuzzy match, or an on-device LLM — based on which path is fastest for the shape of the input.

 ## ✦ the API
 
+### SmartField — one field, one task
+
 ```js
-import { Dhamaka } from "dhamaka";
+import { SmartField } from "dhamaka";
+
+new SmartField(document.querySelector("#city"), {
+  task: "city-to-state",
+  onResult: (r) => {
+    // r.source      → "rule" | "fuzzy" | "model"
+    // r.confidence  → 0..1
+    // r.fields      → { state, stateName, country, countryName, tz, currency }
+  },
+});
+```
+
+Every keystroke fires the task. Rules-first, so typical inputs resolve in under a millisecond with no model involvement. The task registry decides when (and whether) to escalate to the LLM.
+
+### SmartForm — cross-field inference
+
+```js
+import { SmartField, SmartForm } from "dhamaka";
+
+const form = document.querySelector("#checkout");
+
+new SmartForm(form, {
+  tasks: { city: "city-to-state" },           // auto-attach a SmartField
+  infer: {
+    "city → state":    "city-to-state:stateName",
+    "city → country":  "city-to-state:countryName",
+    "city → timezone": "city-to-state:tz",
+    "city → currency": "city-to-state:currency",
+  },
+});
+```
+
+Type "San Francisco" in the city field, the state / country / timezone / currency fields fill themselves from the same task result — synchronously, no debounce, no network. Manually edit any target field and it's locked out of automatic propagation until `smartForm.unlock()`.
 
-// Load the default model (downloads once, instant after that)
-const llm = await Dhamaka.load("dhamaka-micro", {
-  onProgress: (p) => console.log(`${p.received} / ${p.total} bytes`),
+### SmartText — contextual spellcheck on every textarea
+
+```js
+import { SmartText } from "dhamaka";
+
+const textarea = document.querySelector("textarea");
+
+const smart = new SmartText(textarea, {
+  onSuggestions: (suggestions) => {
+    // [{ from: "their", to: "there", index: 14, reason: "homophone in context" }]
+    renderSuggestionChips(suggestions);
+  },
 });
 
-// One-shot
-await llm.complete("Explain WASM in one sentence.");
+// Apply a suggestion by index
+smart.applySuggestion(0);
+```
+
+Catches classic homophone-in-context mistakes ("see you their", "your welcome", "alot of", "its a good idea") that a plain dictionary spellchecker misses.
 
-// Streaming
-for await (const token of llm.stream("Write a haiku about browsers")) {
-  process.stdout.write(token);
-}
+### Smart paste — any form, any blob
 
-// Stateful chat
-const chat = llm.chat({ system: "You are a helpful assistant." });
-await chat.send("Hi!");
+```js
+import { attachSmartPaste } from "dhamaka";
 
-// Inspect the cache
-llm.info();
-// → { model: 'dhamaka-micro', cached: true, loadMs: 42, engine: {...} }
+const form = document.querySelector("#contact-form");
+attachSmartPaste(form, {
+  dropZone: document.querySelector("#paste-zone"),
+});
+
+form.addEventListener("smart-paste:extracted", (e) => {
+  console.log("filled", e.detail.result.fields);
+});
 ```
 
-### drop-in OpenAI compatibility
+Paste a contact blob (business card, signature, LinkedIn blurb) and the `name`, `email`, `phone`, `company`, `website`, `twitter` fields populate themselves. Fields the user has already typed into are never overwritten.
+
+### Configure the engine (optional)
+
+```js
+import { reflex } from "dhamaka";
+
+reflex.configure({
+  backend: "auto",            // "window-ai" | "wasm" | "mock" | "auto"
+  wasmUrl: "/runtime/dhamaka-runtime.wasm",
+});
+```
+
+Most apps never call this — `auto` picks the fastest backend available (Chrome's `window.ai` → the compiled Rust `.wasm` → `MockEngine`).
+
+### Legacy: raw `Dhamaka.load()` for direct model access
+
+For apps that want raw completion / streaming / chat (LLM chatbots, content generation, etc.) — not the SmartField surface — the lower-level class is still available:
+
+```js
+import { Dhamaka } from "dhamaka";
+
+const llm = await Dhamaka.load();
+for await (const token of llm.stream("hello")) process.stdout.write(token);
+```
+
+And the drop-in OpenAI `/v1/chat/completions` shim:
 
 ```js
 import { installOpenAIShim } from "dhamaka/openai";
 installOpenAIShim(llm);
-
-// Now every fetch('/v1/chat/completions', …) in your app runs locally.
 ```

-**v0.1 honesty note:** the Rust runtime runs real transformer math — real matmul, real attention, real sampling, all inside WebAssembly — but the weights it loads for v0.1 are a tiny random model (32-dim hidden, 2 layers, 64-entry vocab). Output is stream-of-tokens, not coherent English. When the SmolLM2-360M Q4 artifacts drop, they flow through the exact same `dhamaka_init` entry point and the SDK doesn't move.
+**v0.1 honesty note:** the Rust runtime does real transformer math end-to-end in WebAssembly, but the weights it loads for v0.1 are a 32-dim random-init demo model — so if a task actually escalates to the LLM layer, the output isn't coherent English. The **three shipping demos deliberately resolve entirely in the rules / fuzzy layers** so you can feel the product without depending on the long-tail model. When real weights arrive, the same task code transparently upgrades.

Subject: [PATCH 08/29] Expand scope: Dhamaka is a local AI capability layer,
 not just a reflex SDK
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The original pivot positioned Dhamaka as "a reflex layer for every input
field on the web". That framing was too narrow. Dhamaka is a local AI
capability layer for web apps, and SmartField is just one family of
capabilities inside it. The flagship integration is the formula editor
in erp.ai — which is a completely different call shape from SmartField:
imperative, one-shot, instruction-driven, on a cell formula instead of
an oninput event.

This commit lands the Transform family (the second of four planned
capability families) and reframes the README around four families:

  🪞 Reflex    — reactive, keystroke-level, rules-first
                 (SmartField, SmartForm, SmartText, attachSmartPaste)
  🔧 Transform — imperative, one-shot, instruction-driven  ← new
                 (Transform, Transform.formula/.explain/.debug)
  🔎 Search    — semantic search over in-memory data (planned)
  🤖 Agent     — multi-step tool use with local model (planned)

Transform (packages/sdk/src/transform.js):

- Thin class that accepts { task, input, instruction, context } and
  routes through the existing task registry. Falls back to a generic
  "instruction over input" prompt when no task is specified.
- Convenience methods: t.formula(input, instr, ctx) / t.explain(input,
  ctx) / t.debug(input, ctx) — three lines of app code to integrate
  erp.ai-style formula editing.
- Normalises TaskResult shape into a TransformResult with output /
  source / confidence / fields / explanation so the caller doesn't
  have to unwrap fields.output.

Formula tasks (packages/sdk/src/tasks/formula.js):

- formula-transform: 10 structural rewrite patterns ship at launch,
  each matching a common ERP formula edit and producing correct output
  with zero model calls. The patterns:

    percent-discount   "add 10% discount"      → (expr) * 0.9
    percent-tax        "add 8% tax"            → (expr) * 1.08
    round              "round to N decimals"   → ROUND(expr, N)
    multiply-by        "multiply by 1.5"       → (expr) * 1.5
    divide-by          "divide by 100"         → (expr) / 100
    iferror            "wrap in iferror"       → IFERROR(expr, 0)
    null-safe          "handle empty cells"    → IFERROR(expr, 0)
    currency-convert   "convert to EUR"        → (expr) * EUR_RATE
    negate             "negate it"             → -(expr)
    abs                "take absolute value"   → ABS(expr)

  When none of the patterns match, the task escalates to the LLM slow
  path with a well-structured prompt that includes dialect, headers,
  and optional grid context.

- formula-explain: table of ~30 common spreadsheet functions mapped to
  one-line plain-English glosses (SUM, AVG, IF, IFERROR, VLOOKUP,
  XLOOKUP, SUMIFS, INDEX, MATCH, ROUND, TEXT, TRIM, …). For pure
  arithmetic the task detects the operation tree instead. LLM fallback
  for composite explanations.

- formula-debug: an advice table for every standard error code
  (#DIV/0!, #N/A, #REF!, #VALUE!, #NAME?, #NUM!, #NULL!, #SPILL!),
  plus static detection of divide-by-cell risk. LLM fallback when the
  error is unusual.

  All three tasks honour the same rules-first / model-fallback contract
  as the Reflex-family tasks, and register themselves automatically
  when @dhamaka/sdk is imported (side-effect import of tasks/formula.js
  from src/index.js).

packages/sdk/src/index.js:

- New section layout: Reflex family, Transform family, shared infra.
- Exports Transform as a top-level symbol.
- Exports formula{Transform,Explain,Debug}Task for tests and direct use.
- Side-effect imports tasks/formula.js so just doing `import "dhamaka"`
  registers every built-in task — apps never have to chase per-family
  imports.

README.md:

- New banner chips: on-device / 0 ms / private / $0 / every browser /
  offline. Dropped the SmartField-specific chip because that's one
  family, not the whole product.
- New tagline: "the local AI capability layer for web apps".
- "What is this" rewritten around four capability families.
- New "the hero use case — formula editing in erp.ai" section that
  explains why ERP is the flagship integration (formulas contain the
  most sensitive data a company owns, Microsoft's Copilot-for-Excel
  is blocked in serious enterprises, every formula edit has to be
  free / instant / private to be viable).
- "Other use cases" reorganised by domain (ERP / forms / writing /
  internal tools) instead of a single flat list.
- Demos table adds a fourth row for the in-progress formula demo.
- Stack diagram rewritten around two capability family columns
  (Reflex, Transform) both funneling into the shared task registry /
  reflex service / engine backends.
- Task registry split into Reflex-family and Transform-family
  sub-tables, with the three formula tasks listed under Transform.
- API section split into 🪞 Reflex family / 🔧 Transform family with
  Transform.formula/.explain/.debug documented under Transform, plus
  an example of registering a custom Transform task.
- "What's real today" section updated to list every Transform bit
  that ships in this commit, with the formula demo + Transform tests
  flagged as in-flight for the next commit.

This commit is intentionally scoped to code + README. Follow-up commits
will land:
  1. Transform + formula task unit tests
  2. The erp.ai-style formula demo page in the playground
  3. An updated docs/GOALS.md reflecting the four-capability-families scope

All 75 existing JS tests still green (the existing suite covers the
Reflex family end-to-end; the Transform family rules layer is
exercised by hand via node -e smoke tests in this commit and will get
proper test coverage in the next commit).

 ## ✦ what is this
 
-**A cross-browser JavaScript SDK that gives every `<input>` and `<textarea>` on the web on-device AI reflexes.** Drop it in, every form gets intelligent. Runs 100% in the user's tab — no API keys, no round trips, no rate limits, no privacy exposure, no monthly bill.
+**Dhamaka is a JavaScript SDK that lets any web app add AI capabilities that run 100% in the user's browser tab.** No servers. No API keys. No round trips. No rate limits. No privacy exposure. Your prompts never leave the device, your model weights never leave the device, your users' data never leaves the device.
 
-Three things ship today:
+It is **not** another general-purpose browser LLM runtime. Transformers.js, WebLLM, wllama, and Chrome's `window.ai` already occupy that layer. Dhamaka sits three layers above them — a task-oriented capability layer that any product can drop in to add on-device reflexes, transformations, and reasoning without building any of the plumbing.
 
-- **`SmartField`** — a tiny wrapper around an `<input>` that routes keystrokes through a task-oriented inference pipeline (autofill, completion, format validation) and fires a resolved event with the result.
-- **`SmartForm`** — declares cross-field inference rules (`"city → state"`, `"city → timezone"`) on a `<form>` and propagates results automatically. Manual edits are respected.
-- **`SmartText`** — watches a `<textarea>` for contextual spellcheck and proofreading — the kind that catches "see you their" and "your welcome", not just dictionary misses.
+### Four capability families, one SDK
 
-Plus `attachSmartPaste(form)` so pasted business cards / signatures / contact blobs split themselves into the right fields synchronously.

+
+Two families are shipping today — **Reflex** and **Transform**. The other two are planned. Every family shares the same engine, the same task registry, and the same deploy story, so adding a new family is a matter of adding tasks, not forking the SDK.
+
+---
+
+## ✦ the hero use case — formula editing in erp.ai
+
+Dhamaka's flagship Transform integration is the formula editor in **[erp.ai](https://erp.ai)**. ERP formulas are the single most sensitive thing a company owns — pricing models, margins, payroll math, commission tiers, inventory rules, compliance checks. The idea of shipping them to a third-party AI provider is a non-starter for any serious enterprise, which is exactly why Microsoft's Copilot-for-Excel is blocked in so many orgs.
+
+Dhamaka lets erp.ai ship **Copilot-for-your-formulas that runs in the user's tab** — every formula edit, every explain-this, every debug-this call happens locally. No SOC2 questionnaires, no data-residency contracts, no per-user AI subscription, no latency on per-cell edits, no rate limits when 50 analysts hit the same sheet at once.
+
+```js
+import { Transform } from "dhamaka";
+const t = new Transform();
+
+// User selects a cell showing `=SUM(A1:A10) * 1.08` and types
+// "add a 10% discount for employees"
+const r = await t.formula(
+  "=SUM(A1:A10) * 1.08",
+  "add a 10% discount for employees",
+  { dialect: "excel", headers: ["amount", "isEmployee"] },
+);
+// r.output       → "=(SUM(A1:A10) * 1.08) * 0.9"
+// r.source       → "rule"   (the discount pattern matched the fast path)
+// r.explanation  → "Multiplied by 0.9 to apply a 10% discount."
+// r.confidence   → 0.95
+```
+
+That call resolved in under a millisecond — no model ran, because "add a 10% discount" is a pattern the rules layer recognises and rewrites structurally. When the instruction is something weirder ("pull the tax rate from the third sheet and apply it only to rows where the vendor country is DE"), the same call transparently escalates to the on-device LLM.
+
+More formula-family calls on the same primitive:
+
+```js
+// Explain a formula in plain English
+await t.explain("=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A2, Prices!A:B, 2, FALSE), 0)");
+// → "This formula uses IFERROR catches errors from the wrapped expression…
+//    and VLOOKUP looks up a value in the first column of a table…"
+
+// Diagnose and fix a broken formula
+await t.debug("=A1/B1", { error: "#DIV/0!" });
+// → "The formula is dividing by a zero or empty cell. Wrap the denominator
+//    in IFERROR: =IFERROR(A1/B1, 0)."
+```
 
-Under the hood every task is **rules-first, model-second**: a tiny gazetteer / regex / static table answers 80% of real inputs in microseconds, and an on-device LLM handles the semantic long tail only when the fast path is uncertain.
+Every one of these runs on-device. Every one is free. Every one is instant. Every one works offline. None of them touch a server erp.ai has to run or pay for.
 
 ---
 
-## ✦ the killer use cases
+## ✦ other use cases this unlocks
+
+The pattern generalises to **any web app where AI calls need to be free, private, instant, and cross-browser** — i.e. almost any app where users are typing real data into real forms:
+
+**ERP / finance / analytics**
+- Formula editing, explanation, debugging (the erp.ai integration above)
+- Natural-language filters over spreadsheet ranges
+- "Find the anomaly in this column" / "what's driving this trend"
+- Smart CSV import: auto-detect headers, map to schema, flag bad rows
 
-Every one of these is impossible as a server-side product because network latency, per-call cost, or rate limits kill it. Every one becomes trivial when inference is free and instant:
+**Forms / checkout / onboarding**
+- Type "San Francisco" → state, country, timezone, currency populate live
+- Smart paste: business cards split into name / email / phone / company
+- Contextual spellcheck that catches "see you their" and "your welcome"
+- Cross-field inference: ZIP → city, email domain → company, date range → duration
 
-- Type "San Francisco" → state, country, timezone, currency fill in live before you finish typing
-- Type "i'll see you their tomorrow" → "their" flagged as wrong, "there" suggested, one click to fix
-- Paste a business card blob into a form → name, email, phone, company, website split themselves into the right fields
-- Type "forest green" in a hex-color field → `#228B22`
-- Type "next Tuesday" in a date field → parsed to an ISO date
-- Type "1 Infinite Loop" → city, state, ZIP auto-complete
-- Type an email ending in `@stripe.com` → company field auto-fills "Stripe"
-- Type "SF" in a city field → expanded to "San Francisco, California, USA, Pacific Time"
-- Start typing in French in an English field → live translation offer
-- Submit a form with mismatched shipping/billing ZIP and state → natural-language explanation of the conflict
+**Writing tools**
+- Tone rewriting ("make it formal / shorter / friendlier") on any `<textarea>`
+- Inline translation as the user types in a different language
+- Proofreading with context-aware suggestions
 
-All of them run on-device, per keystroke, for free, on every browser, in <50 ms.
+**Internal tools / admin panels**
+- Natural-language search over in-memory tables
+- "Fix this row's data" / "what fields are missing" / "is this a duplicate"
+- Free-text classification of incoming records
+
+Every one of these is impossible as a server-side product because network latency, per-call cost, privacy exposure, rate limits, or offline support kills it. Every one becomes trivial when inference is free and local.

+**The shape that matters:** the SDK is the product, split into capability families (Reflex, Transform, and soon Search / Agent) that share everything below them — task registry, reflex service, engine backends. Adding a new family is a matter of adding tasks, not forking the SDK. The runtime underneath is a swappable dependency (Chrome's `window.ai` when present, the Rust `.wasm` otherwise, `MockEngine` for tests) — the surface developers touch never moves.

+### 🔧 Transform family — imperative, one-shot, instruction-driven
+
+#### `Transform` — generic "input + instruction + context → output"
+
+```js
+import { Transform } from "dhamaka";
+
+const t = new Transform();
+
+// Generic one-shot via any registered task
+const r = await t.run({
+  task: "formula-transform",
+  input: "=SUM(A1:A10) * 1.08",
+  instruction: "add a 10% discount for employees",
+  context: { dialect: "excel", headers: ["amount", "isEmployee"] },
+});
+// r.output      → "=(SUM(A1:A10) * 1.08) * 0.9"
+// r.source      → "rule"         (pattern matched the fast path)
+// r.confidence  → 0.95
+// r.explanation → "Multiplied by 0.9 to apply a 10% discount."
+```
+
+One call, one answer, all local. If the task's rules layer can handle the instruction it resolves in microseconds with zero model calls. Otherwise it transparently escalates to the on-device LLM with a well-structured prompt including context, dialect, and schema hints — the app doesn't have to know which path ran.
+
+#### `Transform.formula` / `.explain` / `.debug` — formula shortcuts
+
+Convenience wrappers for the three shipping formula tasks, so erp.ai-style integrations are one import and three methods:
+
+```js
+const t = new Transform();
+
+// Rewrite a formula from a natural-language instruction
+await t.formula("=SUM(A1:A10) * 1.08", "add a 10% discount for employees");
+// → { output: "=(SUM(A1:A10) * 1.08) * 0.9", source: "rule", confidence: 0.95 }
+
+// Explain a formula in plain English
+await t.explain("=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A2, Prices!A:B, 2, FALSE), 0)");
+// → { output: "This formula uses IFERROR catches errors… and VLOOKUP looks up…" }
+
+// Diagnose an error and suggest a fix
+await t.debug("=A1/B1", { error: "#DIV/0!" });
+// → { output: "The formula is dividing by a zero or empty cell. Wrap…" }
+```
+
+Every call runs 100% in the browser tab. No network, no API key, no per-call cost, no rate limit, no data leaving the user's machine — which is what makes this integration viable for products like erp.ai where formulas contain pricing, margins, payroll math, and commission tiers that cannot be sent to a third-party AI provider under any circumstances.
+
+#### Registering your own transform task
+
+Every Dhamaka-powered app can register custom tasks on top of the same rules-first / model-fallback architecture:
+
+```js
+import { registerTask, Transform } from "dhamaka";
+
+registerTask({
+  id: "product-sku-normalize",
+  description: "Normalize messy product SKUs to the canonical format",
+  fast(input) {
+    const m = input.match(/^([A-Z]{2,4})[-_\s]?(\d{4,8})$/i);
+    if (!m) return null;
+    return {
+      confidence: 0.95,
+      source: "rule",
+      fields: { output: `${m[1].toUpperCase()}-${m[2]}` },
+    };
+  },
+  async slow(input, _ctx, engine) {
+    const prompt = `Normalize this SKU to "XX-NNNN" format: "${input}". SKU:`;
+    const out = await engine.complete(prompt, { temperature: 0 });
+    return { confidence: 0.6, source: "model", fields: { output: out.trim() } };
+  },
+});
+
+// Now any Transform call with task: "product-sku-normalize" works
+await new Transform().run({ task: "product-sku-normalize", input: "abc 123456" });
+```

-**v0.1 honesty note:** the Rust runtime does real transformer math end-to-end in WebAssembly, but the weights it loads for v0.1 are a 32-dim random-init demo model — so if a task actually escalates to the LLM layer, the output isn't coherent English. The **three shipping demos deliberately resolve entirely in the rules / fuzzy layers** so you can feel the product without depending on the long-tail model. When real weights arrive, the same task code transparently upgrades.
+**v0.1 honesty note:** the Rust runtime does real transformer math end-to-end in WebAssembly, but the weights it loads for v0.1 are a 32-dim random-init demo model — so when a task escalates to the LLM layer, the model output isn't coherent English yet. **Every shipping task deliberately resolves entirely in its rules layer for the demo inputs** so you can feel the product without depending on the long-tail model. The formula family in particular was designed so the 10 most common ERP formula edits (discounts, taxes, rounding, multipliers, null-safety) are all pattern rewrites that produce correct output with no model call at all. When real weights arrive, the same task code transparently upgrades to handle the long tail.

Subject: [PATCH 09/29] Rename project to Locus + add the manifesto
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Dhamaka was the wrong name. It means "explosion" in Hindi — the
opposite of what this product is. Locus is Latin for "the place", and
that's literally the thesis: the locus of intelligence in a web app is
the app itself, not a remote server. The data is already in the tab,
the schema is already in JS memory, the actions the user can take are
already expressed in code. Ship the model to the data, stop sending
the data to the model.

This commit lands that framing as a manifesto (new top section in both
README.md and docs/GOALS.md) and mechanically renames every Dhamaka
reference across the tree. Every shipped test still passes against
the renamed stack.

The rename:

- crates/dhamaka-runtime/ → crates/locus-runtime/
- Cargo.toml name: dhamaka-runtime → locus-runtime
- Rust ABI exports: dhamaka_* → locus_* (locus_version, locus_alloc,
  locus_free, locus_init, locus_destroy, locus_reset,
  locus_set_sampling, locus_feed_prompt, locus_next_token)
- Compiled artifact: dhamaka-runtime.wasm → locus-runtime.wasm
- WasmEngine updated to call the locus_* exports; default URL is now
  /runtime/locus-runtime.wasm; wasm-engine.test.js reads from the new
  path.
- npm workspace packages: @dhamaka/* → @locus/* (hub, runtime,
  extension, playground)
- Public SDK package: dhamaka → locus (both the name in package.json
  and the legacy `Dhamaka` class renamed to `Locus`)
- postMessage protocol: dhamaka:ping/get/list/delete/response/error/
  progress/ready/request-storage-access → locus:*
- IndexedDB names: dhamaka-hub → locus-hub, dhamaka-extension →
  locus-extension, dhamaka-fallback → locus-fallback
- Extension marker: window.__dhamaka_extension__ → window.__locus_extension__
- Environment variables: DHAMAKA_HUB_PORT / DHAMAKA_PLAYGROUND_PORT →
  LOCUS_HUB_PORT / LOCUS_PLAYGROUND_PORT
- Hypothetical hosting URL: hub.dhamaka.dev → hub.locus.dev
- All file header comments, all package descriptions, all keyword
  lists, all CHANGELOG entries, all READMEs, all docs

The manifesto:

- New ## ✦ the thesis section at the top of README.md (right after the
  banner) leading with "stop sending the data to the model; ship the
  model to the data" and framing the four capability families (Reflex,
  Transform, Search, Agent) as four shapes of one underlying
  operation: reason over the context the app already has, in the place
  the app already is.
- Mirror section at the top of docs/GOALS.md with the same thesis, a
  table of the four capability families, and a one-liner that matches
  the README. The "one thing to remember" section at the bottom of
  GOALS.md now spells the thesis out explicitly with a decision test:
  would this call still work if the user's laptop had no network
  connection and no AI-provider account? If yes, it belongs in Locus.
- docs/GOALS.md naming section rewritten — acknowledges the previous
  name was Dhamaka and explains why Locus is a better fit.
- CHANGELOG.md [Unreleased] section documents every rename mechanic
  and the Transform family + manifesto additions.

The banner:

- docs/banner.svg block letters redrawn for LOCUS (5 letters instead
  of 6, different spacing). aria-label / title / desc / tagline all
  updated to "the local AI capability layer for web apps". Static
  fallback ASCII in README updated to match.

Tests:

- 27 Rust cargo tests: all green against the renamed locus_* ABI
- 75 JS node --test tests: all green against the renamed @locus
  workspace packages and the Locus class
- Dev server smoke test: every endpoint including /runtime/
  locus-runtime.wasm, /sdk/transform.js, /sdk/tasks/formula.js
  returns 200
- SDK import smoke test: Locus class resolves, Transform class
  resolves, all three formula tasks auto-register on import

This is a big commit but every change is mechanical and covered by
the existing test suite. No behavior changes — just the name.

+### Renamed
+
+- **Project renamed from Dhamaka to Locus.** The old name meant "explosion"
+  in Hindi — exactly backwards for a product that's small, quiet, and local.
+  Locus (Latin for "the place") captures the thesis: the locus of
+  intelligence in a web app is the app itself, not a remote server. Every
+  file, directory, package name, Rust ABI export, `postMessage` type
+  prefix, environment variable, and URL has been renamed:
+  - `crates/dhamaka-runtime/` → `crates/locus-runtime/`
+  - Rust ABI: `dhamaka_*` → `locus_*` (`locus_init`, `locus_alloc`, etc.)
+  - npm package: `dhamaka` → `locus`
+  - workspace packages: `@dhamaka/*` → `@locus/*`
+  - legacy SDK class: `Dhamaka` → `Locus`
+  - `postMessage` protocol: `dhamaka:*` → `locus:*`
+  - `dhamaka-runtime.wasm` → `locus-runtime.wasm`
+  - `hub.dhamaka.dev` → `hub.locus.dev` (hypothetical hosting URL)

+  - `formula-transform` task with 10 structural rewrite patterns shipping

+    conversion, negate, absolute value. LLM fallback for anything the

+- **erp.ai as the hero case study.** Formula editing in [erp.ai](https://erp.ai)
+  is the flagship Transform integration. Every ERP formula edit, explain,
+  and debug call runs locally — formulas contain the most sensitive data
+  a company owns (pricing, margins, payroll, commission tiers) so shipping
+  them to a remote AI provider is a non-starter, which makes local
+  inference uniquely viable for this category.
+- **Updated banner.** `docs/banner.svg` redrawn with LOCUS block letters
+  and the new tagline: "the local AI capability layer for web apps".
+
+### Positioning
+
+The previous pivot framed Locus as a reflex layer for input fields. That
+framing was too narrow. Locus is a local AI capability layer for web apps
+— SmartField is one family of capabilities (Reflex), Transform is a
+second (shipping now), Search and Agent are the other two (planned). The
+README, GOALS.md, and CHANGELOG all lead with the four-family framing
+now.

+## ✦ the thesis
+
+> **Stop sending the data to the model. Ship the model to the data.**
+
+A web application already holds everything an AI call needs to be useful. The user's data is in the tab. The app's schema, state, and affordances are already in JavaScript memory. The actions the user can take are already expressed in code. The only reason AI calls travel to a server is historical — because until very recently, the models were too big to ship.
+
+That's no longer true. Local models are now small enough, fast enough, and good enough to run inside a browser tab. Which means the whole mental model of cloud AI — *data travels to model* — is upside down. Flip it. Ship the model to the data.
+
+Every architectural decision in Locus follows from that one inversion. The four capability families below are not a feature list — they're the four *shapes* a call can take once you accept that the model lives where the data already is:
+
+- **🪞 Reflex** — understand what the user typed, in the field they typed it
+- **🔧 Transform** — rewrite what the app holds, using the app's own context
+- **🔎 Search** — retrieve from the user's own data, locally *(planned)*
+- **🤖 Agent** — act through the actions the app already exposes *(v2)*
+
+When in doubt, optimize for this test: *would this call still work if the user's laptop had no network connection and no account with any AI provider?* If yes, it belongs in Locus. If no, it doesn't.
+
+---
+
 ## ✦ what is this
 
-**Dhamaka is a JavaScript SDK that lets any web app add AI capabilities that run 100% in the user's browser tab.** No servers. No API keys. No round trips. No rate limits. No privacy exposure. Your prompts never leave the device, your model weights never leave the device, your users' data never leaves the device.

-It is **not** another general-purpose browser LLM runtime. Transformers.js, WebLLM, wllama, and Chrome's `window.ai` already occupy that layer. Dhamaka sits three layers above them — a task-oriented capability layer that any product can drop in to add on-device reflexes, transformations, and reasoning without building any of the plumbing.

 ## Why Rust
 
-Transformer inference is a lot of f32 math repeated once per generated token. JavaScript can do it, Rust-compiled-to-WASM runs it at roughly native speed. That speed is the whole point of Dhamaka. The tradeoff is that you need a Rust toolchain to build the `.wasm` (or use the prebuilt one checked in under `packages/hub/public/runtime/`).

-## The one-liner
+## ✦ The thesis
 
-**A cross-browser JavaScript SDK that gives every `<input>` and `<textarea>`
-on the web on-device AI reflexes. Zero network latency, zero API cost,
-zero privacy exposure. Drop it in, every field gets smarter.**
+A web application already holds everything an AI call needs to be useful.
+The user's data is in the tab. The app's schema, state, and affordances
+are in JavaScript memory. The actions the user can take are already
+expressed in code. The only reason AI calls travel to a server is
+historical — because until very recently, the models were too big to
+ship. That's no longer true. Local models are small enough, fast enough,
+and good enough to run inside the browser tab.
+
+So the inversion is:
+
+> **Stop sending the data to the model. Ship the model to the data.**
+
+Every architectural decision in Locus follows from that one sentence.
+The four capability families (Reflex, Transform, Search, Agent) are all
+different shapes of one fundamental operation: *reason over the context
+the app already has, in the place the app already is.*
+
+If a feature needs a server, it's not Locus. If a feature could work
+offline, with no account, on any browser, using only the context the
+app already holds — it belongs here.
+
+## ✦ The four capability families
+
+| family       | call shape                                          | example (shipping)             |
+|--------------|-----------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------|
+| 🪞 Reflex    | reactive, continuous, on `oninput`                  | city → state / country / tz    |
+| 🔧 Transform | imperative, one-shot, instruction-driven            | rewrite a formula in erp.ai    |
+| 🔎 Search    | semantic retrieval over in-memory data *(planned)*  | "find the anomaly in this col" |
+| 🤖 Agent     | multi-step tool use over app-exposed actions *(v2)* | "clean this dataset, save it"  |
+
+All four share the same engine (`window.ai` → Rust WASM → Mock), the
+same task registry, and the same reflex service. Adding a family is a
+matter of adding tasks, not forking the SDK.
+
+## ✦ The one-liner
+
+**Locus is the local AI capability layer for web apps.** Any web app
+can drop it in and add on-device reflexes, transformations, and
+reasoning — every call runs 100% in the user's browser tab, zero
+network latency, zero API cost, zero privacy exposure, works on every
+browser, works offline.

-local, tucked into a tab. The name is wrong for the product and will be
-replaced before the first public release.
-
-Candidates I'm considering, all framed around "small, intuitive, always
-on, helps you without getting in the way":
+The project is called **Locus**. Latin for "the place" — and that's
+literally the thesis. The locus of intelligence in a web app is the
+app itself: the data is already in the tab, the schema is already in
+JavaScript memory, the user's intent is already visible in the DOM.
+The model belongs at the locus, not on some remote server thousands of
+kilometres away.
 
-- **Hunch** — "I have a hunch you meant California." Matches the
-  semantic-autofill framing perfectly. 5 letters, one syllable, under-
-  used in tech. Current top pick.
-- **Mote** — "a mote of an LLM in every tab." Matches the size story
-  (tiny, ambient, everywhere). 4 letters.
-- **Reflex** — literal: keystroke-level reflexes for every input.
-- **Pith** — essence, distilled. Under-used, zero collisions.
-- **Wit** — quick, clever, small.
+Five letters, one syllable, unambiguous pronunciation (LOH-kuhs). Not
+overloaded by any major framework or LLM project. The tagline writes
+itself: *the local AI capability layer for web apps*. Every
+architecture decision in this repo is a consequence of taking that
+framing literally.
 
-Name lock-in is a v0.1 blocker but not a v0.0 blocker. I can ship the
-spike under the current name and rename on the release commit.
+The project was previously called Dhamaka (Hindi for "explosion"),
+which was exactly backwards — explosions are loud and external, Locus
+is quiet and internal. The rename happened before the first public
+release.
 
 ## The one thing to remember
 
-**I am not building a browser LLM. I am building a reflex layer for
-every input field on the web, using on-device inference as the physical
-substrate that makes it affordable.**
+**Your app already has everything an AI call needs to be useful. The
+user's data is already in the tab. The app's schema, state, and
+affordances are already in JavaScript memory. The only reason AI calls
+travel to a server is historical, and that history is ending.**
+
+**Stop sending the data to the model. Ship the model to the data.**
+
+Every capability family in Locus is a consequence of that one
+inversion. Reflex understands what the user typed in the field they
+typed it. Transform rewrites what the app holds, using the app's own
+context. Search retrieves from the user's own data. Agent acts through
+actions the app already exposes. None of it needs a server.
+
+When in doubt, optimize for: *would this call still work if the user's
+laptop had no network connection and no account with any AI provider?*
+If yes, it's Locus's job. If no, it doesn't belong here.
 
 When in doubt, optimize for that sentence.

Subject: [PATCH 10/29] Revert the Locus rename: name stays Dhamaka
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The previous commit renamed the project to Locus based on a misread of
"we can keep the same name no worries" as "keep Locus". The actual
intent (later confirmed by the dhamaka.dev domain purchase) was to
keep Dhamaka. Reverting the entire rename here — every file, directory,
Rust ABI export, postMessage type prefix, environment variable, and
URL is back to dhamaka/Dhamaka/DHAMAKA.

Mechanically the inverse of commit c04ca5a:

- crates/locus-runtime/ → crates/dhamaka-runtime/
- Rust ABI: locus_* → dhamaka_* (dhamaka_init, dhamaka_alloc, …)
- locus-runtime.wasm → dhamaka-runtime.wasm (rebuilt from the
  reverted Cargo.toml, 55 KB, same SHA as the pre-Locus version
  modulo compile-time entropy)
- @locus/* → @dhamaka/* (workspace package names + imports)
- `locus` → `dhamaka` (npm package name, legacy SDK class, keyword lists)
- postMessage protocol: locus:* → dhamaka:*
- IndexedDB names: locus-hub → dhamaka-hub, locus-extension →
  dhamaka-extension, locus-fallback → dhamaka-fallback
- Extension marker: window.__locus_extension__ → window.__dhamaka_extension__
- Environment variables: LOCUS_*_PORT → DHAMAKA_*_PORT
- hub.locus.dev → hub.dhamaka.dev (the real domain now, since
  protosphinx actually owns dhamaka.dev)
- All file header comments, README copy, CHANGELOG entries, and GOALS.md
  naming section

Semantic fixes the inverse sed couldn't do on its own:

- CHANGELOG.md [Unreleased] section: removed the nonsense "renamed
  from Dhamaka to Dhamaka" block that resulted from reverting the
  rename-description text. Left the other Unreleased bullets (Transform
  family, erp.ai hero case, manifesto thesis, four-family positioning)
  because those *aren't* reverted. Added a small Notes bullet recording
  the Locus round-trip so future-me doesn't re-litigate it.
- docs/GOALS.md Naming section: rewritten by hand (sed had left a
  ridiculous "Dhamaka is Latin for 'the place'" paragraph that was
  actually the Locus etymology). New version acknowledges Dhamaka
  means "explosion/blast" in Hindi and owns the name — the noise is
  the point: a quiet piece of code doing a loud thing to cloud-AI
  economics. The Locus round-trip is documented as a one-line aside.
- docs/banner.svg: block letters re-redrawn with the DHAMAKA shape
  (6 letters, different spacing). aria-label / title / desc / tagline
  already reverted via sed.
- docs/GOALS.md: deduplicated a doubled "When in doubt, optimize for
  that sentence" line from the "one thing to remember" section.

Preserved from commits 028e47c and c04ca5a (the bits that are
NOT name-related):

- The Transform family: Transform class, formula-transform /
  formula-explain / formula-debug tasks, the 10 structural rewrite
  patterns, the 30-function gloss table, the 8-entry error-code
  advice table. All three tasks auto-register on import via
  packages/sdk/src/index.js side-effect import of tasks/formula.js.
- The thesis / manifesto at the top of docs/GOALS.md and README.md:
  "stop sending the data to the model, ship the model to the data",
  the four capability families table, the decision test.
- The erp.ai hero use case section in README.md with the Transform
  example and the domain-specific justification for why local is the
  only viable integration shape for ERP formulas.

Tests:
- 27 Rust cargo tests green against the restored dhamaka_* ABI
- 75 JS node --test tests green against the restored @dhamaka
  workspace packages and the Dhamaka class
- Dev server smoke test: every endpoint including
  /runtime/dhamaka-runtime.wasm, /sdk/transform.js,
  /sdk/tasks/formula.js returns 200
- SDK import smoke test: Dhamaka class + Transform class + all three
  formula tasks auto-register correctly

No consumer-facing code or publish ever shipped under the Locus name —
it lived on main for exactly one commit before this revert lands.

-### Renamed
-
-- **Project renamed from Dhamaka to Locus.** The old name meant "explosion"
-  in Hindi — exactly backwards for a product that's small, quiet, and local.
-  Locus (Latin for "the place") captures the thesis: the locus of
-  intelligence in a web app is the app itself, not a remote server. Every
-  file, directory, package name, Rust ABI export, `postMessage` type
-  prefix, environment variable, and URL has been renamed:
-  - `crates/dhamaka-runtime/` → `crates/locus-runtime/`
-  - Rust ABI: `dhamaka_*` → `locus_*` (`locus_init`, `locus_alloc`, etc.)
-  - npm package: `dhamaka` → `locus`
-  - workspace packages: `@dhamaka/*` → `@locus/*`
-  - legacy SDK class: `Dhamaka` → `Locus`
-  - `postMessage` protocol: `dhamaka:*` → `locus:*`
-  - `dhamaka-runtime.wasm` → `locus-runtime.wasm`
-  - `hub.dhamaka.dev` → `hub.locus.dev` (hypothetical hosting URL)

 ## Why Rust
 
-Transformer inference is a lot of f32 math repeated once per generated token. JavaScript can do it, Rust-compiled-to-WASM runs it at roughly native speed. That speed is the whole point of Locus. The tradeoff is that you need a Rust toolchain to build the `.wasm` (or use the prebuilt one checked in under `packages/hub/public/runtime/`).

-The project was previously called Dhamaka (Hindi for "explosion"),

-is quiet and internal. The rename happened before the first public
-release.
+The project is called **Dhamaka**. The domain is `dhamaka.dev`. The name
+is loud on purpose — it's a small, quiet piece of code that does a very
+big thing (moving AI inference out of the cloud and into the browser
+tab), and a name with some pop matches that asymmetry. The word means
+"explosion / blast" in Hindi and Urdu, and the reclamation is the joke:
+the "blast" isn't the runtime, it's what happens to the cloud-AI
+economics once the model ships with the page.
+
+One failed rename attempt is in the git history. Early on I second-
+guessed Dhamaka as "too loud for something this quiet" and renamed
+everything to **Locus** (Latin for "the place"), then reverted the
+entire rename one commit later when the `dhamaka.dev` purchase
+confirmed the original name stays. The story is kept here so future-me
+doesn't re-litigate the decision in month six.

 - `minor`: new features, new engines, new models in the registry, new
   public SDK methods.
 - `patch`: bug fixes, doc updates, internal refactors.

Subject: [PATCH 11/29] Ship demo site: formula editor + build script + GitHub
 Pages workflow
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Four things in one commit, all aimed at getting a working public demo
onto GitHub Pages at protosphinx.github.io/dhamaka/ (with dhamaka.dev
attachable later as a custom domain).

1. dhamaka.dev added to the ASCII art

Both the animated SVG banner (docs/banner.svg) and the README's static
fallback block now carry a "dhamaka.dev" subtitle under the block
letters, so the brand and the domain are one visual mark instead of
two separate strings. Brand + URL in one glance.

2. Formula editor demo (packages/playground/public/demos/formula.html)

An erp.ai-style fake spreadsheet that makes the Transform family
concretely visible:

- 5 × 5 grid with a Region/Q1/Q2/Total/Growth fake-revenue dataset
- Formula bar at the top showing the selected cell's formula
- "Ask AI" input below the grid taking natural-language instructions
- 9 suggestion chips for the common instructions the rules layer
  handles: discount, tax, round, null-safe, iferror, multiply, abs,
  negate, EUR conversion
- Cells with formulas are marked with a little italic "f" badge
- On apply: the selected cell's formula is rewritten via
  Transform.formula(), the cell flashes cell-flash-green, and a
  before/after panel shows the old formula, the new formula, the
  source (rule / fuzzy / model), confidence, and the human-readable
  explanation from the pattern-match layer.

Every transformation this demo performs resolves entirely in the
rules layer — no model call, no network hit. The 10 shipping
formula-transform patterns cover the common cases:

  "add 10% discount"    → (expr) * 0.9
  "apply 8% tax"        → (expr) * 1.08
  "round to 2 decimals" → ROUND(expr, 2)
  "handle empty cells"  → IFERROR(expr, 0)
  "multiply by 1.5"     → (expr) * 1.5
  "take absolute value" → ABS(expr)
  "negate it"           → -(expr)
  "convert to EUR"      → (expr) * EUR_RATE
  …etc.

This is the hero demo for the erp.ai case study in the README —
visitors can now feel what local-inference formula editing is like
without anyone running a server, without any AI API key, and without
any model bigger than 55 KB.

3. Site build script (packages/playground/build-site.mjs)

A zero-dependency Node script that assembles the full static demo
site into packages/playground/_site/ so GitHub Pages can serve it.

What it does:

- Wipes _site/ for a clean build
- Copies packages/playground/public/ → _site/ (the HTML, CSS,
  demos/ subdirectory, everything)
- Copies packages/sdk/src/ → _site/sdk/ (so importmap "dhamaka"
  resolves to ./sdk/index.js)
- Copies packages/runtime/src/ → _site/runtime/
- Copies packages/hub/public/runtime/dhamaka-runtime.wasm →
  _site/runtime/dhamaka-runtime.wasm (so WasmEngine's default URL
  /runtime/dhamaka-runtime.wasm resolves)
- Copies docs/banner.svg → _site/docs/banner.svg
- Writes .nojekyll so Pages doesn't try to process _underscore files
- Rewrites every HTML importmap to use relative paths. The dev
  server serves under a root path, but Pages serves under
  protosphinx.github.io/dhamaka/ — so absolute "/sdk/index.js"
  references are rewritten to "./sdk/…" at depth 0 or "../sdk/…"
  at depth 1 (inside demos/). Verified by actually running the
  script and curl-hitting every endpoint on a local python http
  server at port 8090 — all 12 endpoints (root, chat, 4 demos,
  sdk/index, sdk/transform, sdk/tasks/formula, runtime/index,
  runtime/wasm, build.json) return 200.
- Drops a build.json marker with timestamp + commit SHA + run id
  for traceability.

Output: 6 HTML files (index, chat, autofill, spellcheck, paste,
formula), the full SDK tree, the full runtime tree, and the 55 KB
compiled wasm. About 400 KB total.

4. GitHub Pages workflow (.github/workflows/pages.yml)

Triggered on push to main (path-filtered to packages/, crates/,
docs/, and the workflow file itself) and on manual dispatch.

Two jobs:
- build: installs rust + wasm32-unknown-unknown, runs
  crates/dhamaka-runtime/build.sh, installs Node 22, runs
  node packages/playground/build-site.mjs, uploads the resulting
  _site/ via actions/upload-pages-artifact@v3.
- deploy: depends on build, uses actions/deploy-pages@v4 with the
  github-pages environment so the deploy URL lands in the workflow
  output.

Uses the standard concurrency: pages group to serialise deploys
and not cancel in-progress ones.

To enable the first deploy, the repo owner needs to go to
Settings → Pages and set "Source" to "GitHub Actions" (one click,
one-time). After that every push to main that touches the relevant
paths auto-deploys.

.gitignore: ignore packages/playground/_site/ since it's a build
output and the Pages workflow rebuilds it from scratch anyway.

All 102 tests (27 Rust + 75 JS) still green. No regressions; this
commit only adds new files + ASCII art + one new card on the demo
index page.

+          Every transformation you see here is pattern-rewritten structurally
+          in microseconds. Open DevTools → Network: nothing goes out. Unplug
+          your internet: it still works.

+          The same <code>Transform.formula()</code> call falls through to an

+          isn't exercised in this demo (the shipping v0.1 weights are a tiny

Subject: [PATCH 14/29] pages: self-provision the Pages site on first deploy
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The previous run (a39031f) got build=green / deploy=red X in 4
seconds, which is the signature of actions/deploy-pages@v4 failing
its pre-flight call to the Pages API because the site hasn't been
fully provisioned yet. Setting the "Source" dropdown to GitHub
Actions in Settings → Pages is a necessary but not sufficient first
step — the actual Pages site record is only created after the first
successful deploy, which creates a chicken-and-egg problem for a
workflow that's trying to do that first deploy.

Fix: add an `actions/configure-pages@v5` step with `enablement: true`
at the top of the build job. That step calls the Pages API with an
explicit "create this site if it doesn't exist" flag, so the
subsequent deploy-pages step finds a provisioned site and succeeds.

This is a no-op on every subsequent run (the site already exists) so
leaving it in is harmless.

Subject: [PATCH 15/29] pages: remove conflicting Jekyll + CI template
 workflows
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two workflows snuck onto main via GitHub's Settings → Pages "Configure"
buttons:

- jekyll-gh-pages.yml — the Jekyll template from the left "Configure"
  card on Settings → Pages. This runs the Jekyll builder over the repo
  root, which has no Jekyll structure at all (no _config.yml, no Gemfile,
  no layouts/), and would deploy an empty/wrong site. It also fights
  packages/playground/build-site.mjs on the "pages" concurrency group,
  so whichever workflow loses the race blocks the correct one.

- .github/workflows/w — a "Run a one-line script" CI starter template
  with the filename still stuck at "w" (someone saved the template
  before finishing the filename). It's harmless but adds pointless
  runs on every push.

Deleting both. The real Pages workflow is pages.yml, which already
exists and (with the previous commit's configure-pages step) should
self-provision the Pages site on its first deploy.

This is a cleanup-only commit — no behaviour change for the actually-
correct workflow.

Subject: [PATCH 16/29] Option B: real LLM via Transformers.js, kill hardcoded
 spellcheck
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The spellcheck demo had a 17-entry rules layer (15 confusables + 4
context regexes) that I'd added as a "make the demo feel alive without
a real model" crutch. It worked for the 17 exact patterns and silently
failed on everything else. That contradicts the entire thesis of the
project — which is "let the on-device LLM do the work" — and produced
a demo that was worse for the user than just saying "not implemented
yet".

Pivot: strip all the rules from spellcheck, make the task model-only,
and wire a real cross-browser LLM runtime underneath so the slow path
actually has something to fall through to.

WHAT'S NEW
──────────

packages/runtime/src/transformers-backend.js (new)

- TransformersBackend implements the same Engine interface as every
  other backend (WindowAiBackend / WasmEngine / MockEngine), but wraps
  @huggingface/transformers v3 loaded lazily from esm.sh via a dynamic
  import. The import only fires the first time an engine is actually
  instantiated, so pages that don't need a model (e.g. the formula /
  autofill / paste demos that use rules-first tasks) pay zero bundle
  cost.
- Supports task: "text-generation" | "text2text-generation" |
  "fill-mask" | "feature-extraction" with sensible default model
  picks per family (SmolLM2-135M, LaMini-Flan-T5-248M,
  distilbert-base-uncased, all-MiniLM-L6-v2).
- Forwards a progress_callback so demo pages can render a progress
  bar during the first-visit model download. Subsequent visits are
  instant because Transformers.js caches in IndexedDB by default.
- Exposes an embed() method for the planned feature-extraction path
  (Search family, v0.3).

packages/runtime/src/factory.js

- New priority order: window.ai → transformers → wasm → mock.
- In browsers with window.ai: Gemini Nano wins (free, resident,
  GPU-accelerated, shared with the browser).
- In every other browser with WebAssembly + fetch: Transformers.js
  wins. Cross-browser real LLM, no API key, no server, no rate limit,
  all on-device.
- WasmEngine (our Rust runtime) is still wired in but explicitly
  documented as a v2 swap target, not primary. Architecture is done;
  Q4 quantization + SIMD128 + real SmolLM2 weights are the pieces
  that need to land before it becomes primary.
- MockEngine stays last — Node-only, for tests and SSR.

packages/runtime/src/index.js

- Exports TransformersBackend alongside the other backends so consumers
  can instantiate it directly if they want to skip the factory.

packages/sdk/src/tasks.js — spellcheck task rewritten

- DELETED the CONFUSABLES map (15 hardcoded misspellings).
- DELETED the CONTEXT_RULES array (4 hardcoded homophone regexes).
- fast() now unconditionally returns null. There is no rules layer.
  Every spellcheck call is a model call.
- slow() builds a "you are a careful proofreader, return JSON" prompt,
  calls engine.complete(), and parses a JSON array of
  {from, to, reason} objects via a robust extractor that tolerates
  model preamble / code fences / malformed entries.
- When no engine is available the task returns an empty suggestion
  list rather than inventing something. Silence beats fiction.

packages/sdk/src/reflex.js

- configure() documents the new options: backend: "transformers",
  model, task, cdn, onProgress. Callers can now set up Transformers.js
  from demo pages without touching the factory directly.

packages/sdk/test/tasks.test.js — spellcheck tests rewritten

- Removed the 4 semantic assertions that depended on the rules layer
  ("catches recieve → receive", "catches homophone in context",
  "catches teh → the", "clean input has zero suggestions").
- Added 6 contract tests: fast() always returns null, slow() skips
  empty input without calling the engine, slow() calls the engine and
  parses a JSON array, slow() extracts JSON embedded in preamble,
  slow() returns empty suggestions on malformed JSON, slow() drops
  entries without valid from/to strings. These test the contract, not
  semantic behavior that only a real model can deliver.
- Net: 75 → 77 JS tests, all green.

packages/playground/public/demos/spellcheck.html — demo rewritten

- Eagerly warms the engine on page load instead of lazily loading on
  first keystroke. Shows a status card with a progress bar and
  explicit "first visit: ~250 MB download, then offline forever"
  disclosure while Transformers.js downloads LaMini-Flan-T5-248M.
- Uses reflex.configure({ backend: "transformers", task:
  "text2text-generation", model: "Xenova/LaMini-Flan-T5-248M",
  onProgress: ... }) to route the whole task through the new backend.
- Textarea is disabled until the model is ready, then enables and
  prompts the user to type.
- Every debounced input event (600 ms) fires a SmartText call which
  hits spellcheckTask.slow() which hits engine.complete() which hits
  Transformers.js which hits the cached model. Real LLM, every time,
  no rules hiding anything.
- Copy updated: no more references to hardcoded patterns, honest
  about the first-visit cost, explicit about the formula demo still
  keeping rules (because those are deterministic and rules there are
  a performance feature, not a crutch).

All importmaps

- Added "@huggingface/transformers": "https://esm.sh/@huggingface/
  transformers@3" to the importmap in every demo page + the chat
  page. build-site.mjs's relative-path rewriter correctly leaves
  absolute https:// URLs alone (only rewrites /sdk/… and /runtime/…
  prefixes), verified by rebuilding _site/ and grepping the output.

docs/GOALS.md

- Expanded the Non-goals section to explicitly state: "Dhamaka is the
  product layer above the runtime. It is not the runtime itself."
- Called out that @huggingface/transformers is the runtime, window.ai
  is the runtime on Chrome, and the Rust crate is a v2 swap target
  that is explicitly NOT the critical path for shipping demos in 2026.
- Added a new bullet: "Not hardcoding task semantics". Spellcheck is
  model-only forever. Smart paste is model-first with regex fast-
  paths for obviously-structured fragments. Formula transformation
  keeps rules for the small set of deterministic rewrites because
  those have objectively-correct structural answers.

README.md

- Stack diagram rewritten: engine backends section now shows
  window.ai / Transformers.js / MockEngine as the three active paths,
  with the Rust crate marked as a v2 swap target.
- "The shape that matters" paragraph rewritten to be explicit that
  Dhamaka is the product layer above the runtime, and that trying to
  be both the product layer AND the runtime means fighting HuggingFace
  on a layer they'll always win.
- "The engine backends" section rewritten to show 4 implementations
  in priority order with honest tradeoffs (window.ai = free+fast+
  Chrome-only, Transformers.js = real LLM+cross-browser+first-visit
  download, WasmEngine = v2 target, MockEngine = tests only).
- "What's real today" rewritten: the Reflex spellcheck task is
  documented as model-only with NO rules, explicit about the thesis.
  The city-to-state and paste-extract tasks are documented as rules-
  first with model long-tail, with honest explanations of why rules
  are legitimate there.

TESTS
─────
- 27 Rust cargo tests green
- 77 JS node --test tests green (up from 75: +4 new spellcheck
  contract tests, -2 removed rule-based assertions, net +2)
- build-site.mjs assembles _site/ with the new importmap entries
  intact (absolute https://esm.sh URLs pass through the relative-
  path rewriter unchanged)

CAVEATS YOU SHOULD KNOW
───────────────────────
- First visit to the spellcheck demo on a browser without window.ai
  downloads ~250 MB of LaMini-Flan-T5-248M. This is unavoidable: the
  whole point of on-device AI is paying a one-time download cost so
  every subsequent call is free and private. The demo is explicit
  about this on the status card and the fineprint.
- I cannot end-to-end test this commit from the sandbox because there's
  no outbound network, so I can't download the model to run through.
  I've verified: the code compiles, every import resolves, every test
  passes, the importmap rewrite is correct, the SDK imports cleanly
  with TransformersBackend exported. The first real "does this
  download the model and produce corrections in a browser" check
  happens on the deployed Pages site once the workflow runs.
- The WasmEngine (our Rust runtime) is demoted to priority 3 in the
  factory. It still ships, still has all 27 tests, still compiles to
  the same 55 KB .wasm — but it's no longer the thing that drives
  the spellcheck demo. That role belongs to Transformers.js until the
  Rust crate has quantization + SIMD + real weights.

Adding a new family is a matter of adding tasks, not forking the SDK.

The Rust crate in `crates/dhamaka-runtime` is a v2 swap target, not the primary runtime: Transformers.js has years of quantization, BPE tokenization, and ONNX/WebAssembly runtime work we're not going to reinvent, and trying to be *both* the product layer and the runtime would mean fighting HuggingFace on a layer they'll always win. We pick the product layer and let them pick the runtime.

+On a typical modern Chrome: `window.ai` wins, nothing downloads, spellcheck responds in ~100 ms. On Firefox / Safari / older Chromes: Transformers.js wins, first visit waits 30–90 seconds for the model download, every visit after that is instant and offline. On Node (tests, SSR): `MockEngine` wins so CI never tries to download a language model.
 
 In browsers, the factory prefers `window.ai` when available and falls back to the WASM runtime otherwise. Same SDK surface either way. In Node (tests, SSR), the factory picks `MockEngine` so unit tests don't need a real model.

-          Click any suggestion chip to apply the fix directly. The edit
-          dispatches a synthetic input event, so the next re-check runs
-          immediately.
+          The <b>formula demo</b> still keeps its pattern rewrites (discounts,
+          taxes, rounding, etc.) because those have objectively-correct
+          structural answers and rules are a legitimate performance path there.
+          Spellcheck is the opposite: probabilistic, context-dependent, long-
+          tail. Rules there would contradict the thesis, so they're gone.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+          If your browser supports Chrome's <code>window.ai</code> Prompt API
+          (Gemini Nano), Dhamaka will prefer that over Transformers.js — it's
+          free, pre-downloaded, and GPU-accelerated. On every other browser
+          you get Transformers.js. Same SDK, same task, same surface.

+// TransformersBackend — real cross-browser LLM inference via @huggingface/transformers.
+//
+// This is the primary runtime for Dhamaka in 2026. It wraps the HuggingFace
+// Transformers.js library (`@huggingface/transformers`, the v3+ rename of
+// `@xenova/transformers`) and exposes it through the same `Engine` interface
+// every other backend implements, so swapping it in is a factory-priority
+// change.
+//
+// Why this layer exists:
+//
+//  - HuggingFace's team has spent years on the three hardest parts of running
+//    LLMs in a browser: quantization, BPE tokenization, and the ONNX runtime
+//    backend with SIMD/WebGPU acceleration. We are not going to beat them on
+//    any of those three, and we shouldn't try. We own the product layer above
+//    (SmartField, SmartForm, SmartText, Transform, the task registry, the
+//    cross-site cache, the extension). They own the runtime. Clean separation.
+//
+//  - Transformers.js supports hundreds of models, including the specific ones
+//    Dhamaka needs: distilBERT-style masked LMs for spellcheck, SmolLM2 for
+//    generic text completion, MiniLM for embeddings. We pick the right model
+//    per task instead of shipping one giant generalist.
+//
+//  - The import is lazy. Transformers.js is ~2 MB gzipped and we don't want
+//    every consumer site to pay that cost. This backend dynamically imports
+//    it from `esm.sh` the first time an engine is instantiated, so sites that
+//    never touch an LLM (e.g. pages that only use rules-first Transform tasks
+//    like formula-transform) don't pay the bundle cost at all.
+//
+//  - First-visit model downloads are cached by Transformers.js itself in
+//    IndexedDB. Subsequent visits to the same origin are instant. The Dhamaka
+//    hub still adds cross-site sharing on top of that (a v0.2 concern — the
+//    hub's TransformersCacheAdapter routes Transformers.js's cache through
+//    our shared origin).
+//
+// Honest tradeoffs this commit accepts:
+//
+//  - Users see a one-time ~60–140 MB download on first visit per model (the
+//    exact size depends on which quantization Transformers.js picks for the
+//    browser: WebGPU → fp16, WASM+SIMD → q8, WASM no-SIMD → q4).
+//  - A dynamic import from a CDN means the site has a non-zero hard dependency
+//    on esm.sh being up. We mitigate by supporting a user-configurable CDN
+//    base URL (`transformersCdn` option), so anyone can self-host.
+//  - Transformers.js's API surface is its own thing; we abstract it behind
+//    `complete()` / `generate()` so Dhamaka's Engine contract doesn't leak
+//    their model metadata.

Subject: [PATCH 17/29] Fix spellcheck: distilBERT fill-mask, not LaMini
 instruction prompting
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Previous commit (66d4176) wired the spellcheck demo to
Xenova/LaMini-Flan-T5-248M and prompted it with "you are a proofreader,
return a JSON array of corrections". In the deployed demo this was both
slow (~9.5s per call) and wrong (returned "looks clean" on obvious
gibberish like "sdasd asdasd asd"). Both failures trace to the same
mistake: LaMini-Flan-T5 is a generic 248M instruction-follower, not a
spellchecker, and at that parameter count it's below the quality
threshold to reliably follow a structured JSON prompt on free-form
text. Asking a too-small instruction model to do spellcheck via
prompting is architecturally wrong.

Fix: switch to the correct tool — a masked language model — and the
correct algorithm — per-word masking.

──────────────────────────────────────────
1. Model: Xenova/distilbert-base-uncased
──────────────────────────────────────────

distilBERT's masked-LM head was literally trained for "given a context,
predict the masked token". That's the spellchecker algorithm: mask a
word, ask the model what should go there, if the original isn't in
the top predictions then it's likely misspelled.

- Size: ~65 MB (vs ~250 MB for LaMini-Flan-T5-248M).
- Per-call latency: ~100–300 ms per masked word in WASM on a laptop
  (vs ~9500 ms per full text call for LaMini).
- Purpose-built: no prompt engineering, no JSON parsing, no hallucinated
  answers, no "the model said looks clean on gibberish" failure mode.

──────────────────────────────────────────
2. TransformersBackend: fillMask() + maskToken
──────────────────────────────────────────

- Added a public fillMask(input, topK) method that returns a structured
  Array<{token, score}> sorted by score desc. For multi-mask input it
  returns the first mask's predictions (single-mask is the spellcheck
  use case).
- Added a maskToken getter that surfaces the model's mask token string
  (e.g. "[MASK]" for BERT-family, "<mask>" for RoBERTa-family). Callers
  need this to construct valid masked input.
- load() now caches the mask token from the loaded tokenizer so later
  calls don't have to re-query it.
- complete() on a fill-mask task delegates to fillMask() and returns
  a JSON-stringified result so it still satisfies the Engine contract
  for callers that don't know to use the structured method.

──────────────────────────────────────────
3. spellcheckTask: per-word masking algorithm
──────────────────────────────────────────

- fast() still returns null (no rules — the whole thesis).
- slow() now:
  1. checks the engine exposes fillMask() (graceful fallback: return
     an empty result with a clear error string if not).
  2. tokenises the input with /\b[A-Za-z][A-Za-z']*\b/g.
  3. drops short words (<3 chars) and stoplist words ("the", "a",
     "is", "are", …) to avoid wasted model calls and trivial false
     positives.
  4. caps at MAX_WORDS_PER_CALL = 40 so huge inputs don't spam the
     model.
  5. for each surviving candidate word:
     a. builds a masked sentence with exactly that word replaced by
        the model's mask token.
     b. calls engine.fillMask(masked, top_k=20).
     c. if the original word (case-insensitively) is not in the top-K
        token strings (or the stripped WordPiece form), flags it.
     d. collects up to 3 alternative suggestions from the top-K,
        filtered to real whole words (stripping `##` subword prefixes,
        dropping non-letter tokens).
  6. returns { from, to, alternatives, index, reason } per suggestion.
- A single failing fillMask call (e.g. rare model error) is caught
  and logged; the run continues on the remaining words.

──────────────────────────────────────────
4. Demo page: distilBERT, new copy, new diagram
──────────────────────────────────────────

- reflex.configure({ backend: "transformers", task: "fill-mask",
  model: "Xenova/distilbert-base-uncased", onProgress: ... }).
- Copy updated: "~65 MB" instead of "~250 MB", "10–30 seconds"
  instead of "30–90 seconds", "distilBERT" instead of "LaMini-Flan-T5".
- The "what's happening under the hood" diagram now shows the
  per-word masking loop: for each word → build masked sentence →
  engine.fillMask → check top-K → flag + suggest.
- Debounce tightened from 600 ms to 400 ms since per-word masking
  is fast enough to feel more responsive.
- Ready-message in the status card explains the algorithm instead
  of promising generic "corrections come back in under a second".

──────────────────────────────────────────
5. Cache-busting in build-site.mjs
──────────────────────────────────────────

The previous commit hit a real problem on your first real test: the
new spellcheck.html rendered but it was paired with the PREVIOUS
commit's factory.js, which didn't know about backend: "transformers"
and fell through to WasmEngine with a /runtime/dhamaka-runtime.wasm
404. The cause is GitHub Pages serving static files with
Cache-Control: max-age=600, so every deploy has a 10-minute window
where the browser happily mixes new HTML with stale JS.

The fix is a cache-busting query string on every importmap URL:

  "dhamaka": "./sdk/index.js?v=abc1234"

Every deploy generates a new short SHA, every URL becomes distinct,
browsers can't cache across deploys. build-site.mjs now:

- Reads the current HEAD SHA from .git/HEAD (or GITHUB_SHA in CI),
  without shelling out to git. Handles loose refs and packed-refs.
- Appends ?v=<shortSha> to every ./sdk/... and ./runtime/... URL
  in every demo HTML's importmap during the subdirectory rewrite.
- Records both the full SHA and short SHA in build.json so the
  /build.json diagnostic I wrote about in the previous session now
  tells you exactly which commit is live.

──────────────────────────────────────────
6. Tests
──────────────────────────────────────────

Tasks test rewritten for the new contract:

- fast() always returns null
- slow() short-circuits empty input without calling the engine
- slow() refuses engines that don't expose fillMask()
- slow() flags words whose top-K predictions don't include them,
  doesn't flag words that ARE in their top-K
- slow() skips stoplist / short words without wasting mask calls
- slow() strips WordPiece ## prefixes from suggestions
- slow() tolerates a single mask call failure without killing the run

8 spellcheck tests total (up from 6 in the previous commit, net +2).
77 JS tests → 78 JS tests, all green. 27 Rust tests still green. 105
total tests.

──────────────────────────────────────────
Verification status
──────────────────────────────────────────

Local:
- node --check across every modified JS file: pass
- cargo test (27): pass
- npm test (78): pass
- node packages/playground/build-site.mjs: assembles _site/ with
  cache-busted importmap (?v=66d4176) and /build.json containing
  both full and short SHA

Pages deploy:
- Not yet verified. I still can't outbound to github.io from this
  sandbox. The user will verify in their browser once the Pages
  workflow runs the new commit. The cache-busting means the user
  will NOT need to hard-refresh this time — every importmap URL is
  a fresh resource.

+// This is the correct algorithm for a masked-LM spellchecker. It's

+// spellchecker do. It's fast (one forward pass per word, ~50-200ms
+// on distilBERT in WASM), small (~65 MB for distilbert-base-uncased),
+// and accurate for misspellings and obvious non-words.

Subject: [PATCH 18/29] Spellcheck UX: tighter suggestion filter, try-list,
 honest gibberish caveat
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Follow-up to f5b110a. The distilBERT fill-mask algorithm is correct,
but on the user's first real test the demo output was dominated by
two-character junk suggestions like "xxx → da", "asdsd → cd",
"asdasd → xx". Three problems, fixed here:

1. SUGGESTION FILTER WAS TOO LAX
   MIN_SUGGESTION_LEN is now 3 (matches MIN_WORD_LEN for worth-checking
   words), and the filter additionally requires ≥1 vowel (a/e/i/o/u/y).
   This rejects WordPiece fragments that happen to be valid letter
   sequences but are not real English words: "xx", "cd", "sd", "xxx",
   "ght", etc. These are in distilBERT's vocabulary because they appear
   as subword pieces in longer words (sundae, CDs, Canada, rights) but
   they're not plausible whole-word corrections.

2. DEMO TRY-LIST MADE IT EASY TO HIT THE PATHOLOGICAL CASE
   The only inputs the previous demo copy suggested were the old rule-
   era examples ("I'll see you their tomorrow"), and the placeholder was
   "start typing…". So users instinctively typed gibberish ("sdasd asdasd")
   to test, and masked-LM spellcheck on pure gibberish has no meaningful
   context to predict from — the suggestions for it are also gibberish.
   That's not a bug, it's a property of the algorithm, but it looks
   broken in a demo.

   Fixed: added three "Try:" chips to the demo page with real sentences
   that demonstrate the algorithm working on realistic input:
     - "I recieve the package tommorow and it will seperate our stuff"
     - "The goverment has definately been occuring alot this year"
     - "She went untill the store to meet her freind yestarday"
   Clicking a chip populates the textarea and fires the check. Plus an
   explicit caveat below: "Masked-LM spellcheck works best on real
   prose with real misspellings. Pure gibberish gets flagged correctly,
   but the suggestions will be nonsense too — that's a property of the
   algorithm, not a bug."

3. NO-ALTERNATIVE FLAGS WERE BEING HIDDEN
   The previous code did `if (!alts.length) continue;` which meant a
   flagged word with no plausible alternatives (i.e. the top-K is all
   junk) was dropped from the suggestion list entirely. That made the
   task look like it was underreporting. The fix: still flag the word
   with `to: null` and `alternatives: []`, so the chip UI can render
   it as "word → ?" — visually communicates "I caught this but have
   nothing useful to suggest here" instead of silently dropping it.

TransformersBackend + spellcheckTask:
- New MIN_SUGGESTION_LEN constant = 3.
- New isPlausibleWord(token) helper that enforces length + letters-only
  + ≥1 vowel.
- slow() no longer drops flagged words with empty alternatives — it
  emits them with `to: null`.
- Reason string splits into "not in top predictions" (has alts) and
  "not in top predictions, and none of the predictions are plausible
  words" (no alts) so debugging is clearer.

Demo page (spellcheck.html):
- New "Try:" section with 3 clickable example chips.
- Wired the chips: clicking populates .value and dispatches an input
  event so SmartText kicks off the check immediately.
- New .try-chip CSS (pill-shaped, hover highlight in accent color).
- New .suggest.no-alts CSS (the "?" is rendered in italic muted grey).
- Suggestion renderer handles `to === null`: renders "?" instead of
  the string, adds the .no-alts class, skips the click-to-apply handler
  since there's nothing to apply.

Tests (tasks.test.js):
- +3 new tests:
  * rejects 2-char suggestions (xx, cd, da, sd)
  * rejects consonant-only tokens (xxx, ght) via the vowel filter
  * still-flag behaviour: when all top-K are junk, the word is
    flagged with to: null, alternatives: [], and an explanatory reason
- 78 → 81 JS tests, all green. 27 Rust tests still green. 108 total.

Caveat: this doesn't turn the demo into Grammarly. Masked-LM spellcheck
on distilBERT will still make mistakes on homophones with weak context,
and will still produce thin suggestions for uncommon misspellings.
Those are inherent limitations of a 65 MB masked LM running in a
browser tab. The fix path for those cases is a bigger model (BERT-base
at ~400 MB) or window.ai's Gemini Nano on Chrome. But within those
limits, the demo now correctly shows realistic misspellings getting
caught with real-word suggestions, not gibberish-for-gibberish noise.

Subject: [PATCH 19/29] Fix cache-busting: propagate ?v=SHA through every
 relative .js import
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The cache-busting I added in f5b110a only rewrote importmap ENTRIES
(the bare specifiers "dhamaka" and "@dhamaka/runtime"). That made the
browser fetch a fresh sdk/index.js?v=SHA on each deploy, but every
RELATIVE import inside that module (e.g. `import "./tasks.js"`) still
resolved to an unversioned URL. The browser happily served those
internal modules from cache across deploys, producing "new index.js,
old tasks.js" — the exact mechanism that was still poisoning the
spellcheck demo with old filter code on commit 2a0e704.

Proof: in 2a0e704 the suggestion filter was tightened to reject
<3-char tokens and consonant-only tokens. But the user's test on the
deployed site still showed `okok → h` and `hhhh → hh` — 1- and 2-char
suggestions that the new filter should have rejected. The only
explanation: tasks.js was still running pre-2a0e704 code because the
browser had cached it.

Fix: build-site.mjs now does a second pass after copying _site/sdk/
and _site/runtime/. It walks every .js file in those trees and
regex-rewrites every relative import (./ or ../, ending in .js,
no existing query string) to include ?v=<shortSha>:

  from "./tasks.js"           → from "./tasks.js?v=2a0e704"
  from "./data/cities.js"     → from "./data/cities.js?v=2a0e704"
  from "../runtime/index.js"  → from "../runtime/index.js?v=2a0e704"

Bare specifiers like "dhamaka" and "@dhamaka/runtime" are NOT rewritten
by this pass (the importmap already cache-busted those in step 8a).

The rewrite regex:
  /(["'])(\.\.?\/[^"'?\s]+?\.js)(["'])/g

Matches any quoted string literal that starts with ./ or ../, ends in
.js, and has no existing ? query — covering import statements, export
statements, side-effect imports, and dynamic import() calls. Avoids
false positives on bare specifiers, https URLs, or already-busted paths.

Local verification (node packages/playground/build-site.mjs):

  rewrote importmaps in 6 html files (cache-bust v=2a0e704)
  cache-bust: rewrote relative imports in 16 / 21 js files

Sample of the rewritten files:

  _site/sdk/index.js:
    import { HubClient } from "./hub-client.js?v=2a0e704";
    export { SmartField } from "./smart-field.js?v=2a0e704";
    ...

  _site/runtime/index.js:
    export { TransformersBackend } from "./transformers-backend.js?v=2a0e704";
    ...

  _site/sdk/tasks.js:
    import { findCity, findCityFuzzy } from "./data/cities.js?v=2a0e704";

Every module path now carries the deploy's short SHA as a query
string, so the browser treats each deploy's module graph as a
completely separate set of resources. Cache can never serve the old
spellcheck task against new HTML again.

The 5 files without imports (engine.js, data/cities.js, leaf
tokenizer files) were correctly left alone.

All 27 Rust tests + 81 JS tests still green. This commit only touches
the build script, not any runtime or product code.

This is the SECOND cache-busting fix in two commits, which is
embarrassing — I should have caught the relative-import propagation
issue the first time. Reality: the importmap-only cache-bust is a
known-incomplete pattern and I underestimated how much ES-module
relative-import behavior breaks the naive approach. Done properly now.

Subject: [PATCH 20/29] Add Playwright e2e tests, benchmarks, GitHub Pages
 deploy, and update README

- 18 Playwright browser tests covering all three demos (autofill, spellcheck, paste)
- Benchmark suite: task pipeline (10k iterations), WASM runtime (cold start + tok/s),
  browser end-to-end latency via Playwright
- GitHub Pages workflow + build script to deploy the playground as a static site
- README updated with real measured numbers: 0.2 ms autofill, 0.54 ms WASM cold start,
  55 KB binary, 120 total tests. Use cases split into shipping vs planned.

+# Benchmarks
+
+> Generated 2026-04-13 on Apple Silicon (darwin arm64), Node v25.2.1,
+> headless Chromium via Playwright. All numbers are from the rules-first
+> fast path — no model involved.
+
+## Run them yourself
+
+```bash
+npm run bench           # all three suites
+npm run bench:tasks     # task pipeline only
+npm run bench:wasm      # WASM runtime only
+npm run bench:browser   # real browser via Playwright
+```
+
+---
+
+## Task pipeline (rules-first fast path)
+
+The hot path. Every keystroke in a `SmartField` runs through these
+functions synchronously. The goal is **< 1 ms per call** — ideally
+microseconds.
+
+| benchmark | p50 | p95 | p99 | mean |
+|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|
+| **city-to-state:** exact match ("San Francisco") | 0.3 ns | 0.4 ns | 1.0 µs | 0.3 ns |
+| **city-to-state:** alias ("sf") | 0.2 ns | 0.2 ns | 0.3 ns | 0.2 ns |
+| **city-to-state:** case-insensitive ("SAN FRANCISCO") | 0.2 ns | 0.3 ns | 0.3 ns | 0.2 ns |
+| **city-to-state:** fuzzy match ("San Francsico") | 10.9 µs | 13.9 µs | 18.6 µs | 11.1 µs |
+| **city-to-state:** miss ("xyzzy") | 10.9 µs | 13.0 µs | 17.2 µs | 11.2 µs |
+| **spellcheck:** homophone ("see you their") | 0.5 ns | 0.7 ns | 0.9 ns | 0.5 ns |
+| **spellcheck:** misspelling ("recieve") | 0.4 ns | 0.7 ns | 0.7 ns | 0.4 ns |
+| **spellcheck:** clean text (no issues) | 0.7 ns | 0.8 ns | 0.8 ns | 0.7 ns |
+| **spellcheck:** multiple errors | 0.7 ns | 0.9 ns | 1.0 ns | 0.7 ns |
+| **paste-extract:** full contact blob (7 lines) | 1.5 µs | 2.1 µs | 2.2 µs | 1.6 µs |
+| **paste-extract:** email-only blob | 0.9 ns | 1.2 µs | 1.5 µs | 1.0 ns |
+
+10,000 iterations per benchmark. **All p99 latencies are under 20 µs** —
+well within the < 1 ms budget, let alone the 50 ms keystroke budget.
+
+**Key insight:** Exact gazetteer lookups and spellcheck rules resolve in
+nanoseconds. Fuzzy matching (Levenshtein distance on ~100 cities) is the
+slowest path at ~11 µs — still 5,000× faster than the 50 ms budget.
+
+---
+
+## WASM runtime (Rust → wasm32)
+
+The fallback inference engine — real transformer math (matmul, RMSNorm,
+softmax, RoPE, KV-cache, sampling) compiled from Rust to a 55 KB `.wasm`.
+
+| metric | value |
+|---|---|
+| **WASM binary size** | 55.1 KB |
+| **Cold start** (instantiate + init) | 0.54 ms median, 0.37 ms min |
+| **Tokens in 50 ms budget** | ~64 tokens |
+
+### Warm inference (8 tokens generated)
+
+| prompt | median | p95 | tok/s |
+|---|---:|---:|---:|
+| "hello" | 0.19 ms | 0.25 ms | 41,630/s |
+| "The quick brown fox" | 0.34 ms | 0.38 ms | 23,674/s |
+| "San Francisco is a city in" | 0.43 ms | 0.45 ms | 18,783/s |
+| "function fibonacci(n) {" | 0.39 ms | 0.41 ms | 20,581/s |
+
+50 iterations per prompt. These are random-init demo weights (32-dim) so
+the output isn't coherent — but the math is real. Throughput scales with
+model dimension; real SmolLM2-360M Q4 weights will be slower but the
+architecture is proven.
+
+---
+
+## Browser end-to-end (headless Chromium)
+
+Real page loads, real DOM events, real import maps. Measured via Playwright.
+
+| scenario | time |
+|---|---:|
+| **Page load** (autofill demo) | 27 ms |
+| **Type "San Francisco" → state filled** | 16 ms |
+| SDK self-reported task latency | 0.20 ms |
+| **10 sequential city lookups** | 34 ms total, **3.4 ms avg** |
+| **Spellcheck: type → suggestion visible** | 113 ms (includes 80 ms debounce) |
+| **Spellcheck: click fix → text corrected** | 17 ms |
+| **Paste blob → 6 fields populated** | 16 ms |
+| **External network requests** | **0** |
+
+### Budget check vs. goals
+
+The [GOALS.md](docs/GOALS.md) target is **< 50 ms per keystroke**.
+
+```
+  ✔  autofill resolve:   0.20 ms  (250× under budget)
+  ✔  10-lookup average:  3.4  ms  (15× under budget)
+  ✔  spellcheck:         ~33  ms  (after subtracting 80 ms debounce)
+  ✔  paste extraction:   16   ms  (3× under budget)
+  ✔  cold start (wasm):  0.54 ms  (93× under budget)
+  ✔  network requests:   0        (nothing leaves the device)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Asset sizes
+
+| asset | size |
+|---|---:|
+| WASM runtime binary | 55.1 KB |
+| SDK source (all JS) | ~83 KB (unminified) |
+| City gazetteer | ~100 entries, 255 lines |
+
+---
+
+## Test suite
+
+| suite | tests | time |
+|---|---:|---:|
+| Node unit tests (`npm test`) | 75 | ~580 ms |
+| Playwright e2e (`npm run test:e2e`) | 18 | ~1.7 s |
+| **Total** | **93** | **~2.3 s** |

-// And rewrites the importmaps in every HTML page so `dhamaka` and

-//
-// Run this after `crates/dhamaka-runtime/build.sh` so the wasm is fresh.

Subject: [PATCH 21/29] Fix spellcheck: add rules-based fast path for instant
 common misspelling detection

The model-only spellcheck required a 65MB distilBERT download before
anything worked. Now common misspellings (120+ confusables) and
homophones are caught instantly by rules (<1ms), with the model
providing long-tail coverage when loaded. The demo textarea is
enabled immediately instead of waiting for model download.

 //
-// This is the correct algorithm for a masked-LM spellchecker. It's
-// what distilBERT, BERT, RoBERTa, and every production masked-LM
-// spellchecker do. It's fast (one forward pass per word, ~50-200ms
-// on distilBERT in WASM), small (~65 MB for distilbert-base-uncased),
-// and accurate for misspellings and obvious non-words.
+// The slow() path uses per-word masked-LM scoring (distilBERT) for the
+// long tail: unusual words, context-dependent errors, and anything the
+// rules table doesn't cover. It only runs when an engine with fillMask
+// is available.
 //
-// If no engine is available, or the engine doesn't support fill-mask,
-// the task returns an empty suggestion list rather than inventing

From: sphinx <133899485+protosphinx@users.noreply.github.com>

Subject: [PATCH 22/29] Fix broken GitHub Pages deploy: import maps used
 absolute paths that 404
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Every demo page had import maps with root-absolute paths (/sdk/index.js,
/runtime/index.js) which resolve correctly on localhost:5173 but 404 on
GitHub Pages where the site lives at /dhamaka/. Changed all import maps
to relative paths (../sdk/index.js for demos/, ./sdk/index.js for root).

This was the reason ALL demos appeared as empty shells on the deployed
site — zero JavaScript loaded.

Also adds e2e tests for the formula editor demo (5 tests).

Subject: [PATCH 23/29] Fix spellcheck model false positives: quality gate,
 KNOWN_WORDS, edit distance filter
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The masked-LM was producing garbage suggestions like "how → ckey" and
"why → doing" when input context was noisy. Three protections added:

1. Context quality gate: skip model entirely when <40% of words are
   recognized English (gibberish input can't provide useful context)
2. KNOWN_WORDS set (~300+ words): common English words the model should
   never flag, regardless of what the masked-LM predicts
3. Edit distance filter: model suggestions must be within Levenshtein
   distance 3 of the original word to prevent context-based false
   positives (e.g., "table" → "chair")

Also expanded STOPLIST from ~50 to ~200+ entries covering question
words, common verbs, adjectives, and nouns. Updated all 6 affected
unit tests to use realistic English inputs that pass the quality gate.

 =?UTF-8?q?New=20York=20bug=20and=20stale=20field=20data?=
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Three fixes:

1. SmartForm clears target fields when there's no match. Previously,
   intermediate keystroke matches (e.g., "new" fuzzy-matching "nyc"
   while typing "newport") would stick forever because SmartForm only
   set values, never cleared them.

2. Fuzzy matcher caps edit distance at 1 for short queries (< 5 chars).
   "new" was matching "nyc" at distance 2, which is 67% of the input
   wrong — not a typo. Longer queries like "San Francsico" still get
   distance-2 matching.

3. Added Newport (RI) and Providence (RI) to the cities gazetteer.

Subject: [PATCH 25/29] Make autofill fields editable, expand gazetteer with 15
 more US cities

- Removed readonly from state/country/timezone/currency inputs so users
  can manually correct autofill results. SmartForm already respects
  manual edits (locks the field from further auto-fill).

- Added Arlington (TX), Columbus, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Indianapolis,
  Kansas City, St. Louis, Richmond, Virginia Beach, Madison, Milwaukee,
  Omaha, Louisville, Oklahoma City to the gazetteer.

Subject: [PATCH 26/29] Wire up on-device LLM for city-to-state: any city in
 the world
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The gazetteer was a 100-city static list — useless for the long tail.
Now the autofill demo loads SmolLM2-135M-Instruct (via @huggingface/
transformers) in the background. Common cities still resolve instantly
from the gazetteer; everything else is answered by the on-device LLM
with no server call.

Changes:
- Rewrote cityToStateTask.slow() with a few-shot prompt that works
  well on small models (pattern continuation > JSON generation)
- Autofill demo configures reflex with text-generation backend,
  loads model in background, shows download progress, and re-runs
  the current query when model finishes loading
- Added 3 unit tests for the new slow() path (parsing, empty input,
  missing engine)
- Updated demo copy to reflect the LLM-powered architecture

Subject: [PATCH 27/29] Expand gazetteer from 115 to 721 cities: instant lookup
 for any major city
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Geographic data is deterministic — an LLM adds latency and unreliability
for what's fundamentally a table lookup. Rewrote cities.js with a compact
builder format covering:

- US: all 50 state capitals + all cities > 100k population (~300 cities)
- India: 70 cities including Kanpur, Lucknow, Jaipur, Ahmedabad, etc.
- China: 22 cities, Japan: 10, South Korea: 5
- Europe: 100+ cities across 20 countries
- Latin America: 50+ cities across 15 countries
- Africa/Middle East: 40+ cities across 20 countries
- Canada: 27, UK: 27, Australia: 10, New Zealand: 5

Added 200ms debounce to the autofill SmartField so the LLM fallback
(for truly obscure cities) doesn't fire on every keystroke.

Subject: [PATCH 28/29] Remove LLM from autofill demo: gazetteer-only for speed
 and correctness
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The on-device SmolLM2 model added 2.5s latency and returned wrong data
(e.g. Kanpur → "Punjab, United States"). The 721-city gazetteer resolves
instantly with correct results. Stripped reflex.configure/ensure, model
progress UI, and @huggingface/transformers import.

Subject: [PATCH 29/29] Add US Tax Calculator: sales tax + federal income tax
 tasks
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two new tasks following the rules-first pattern:

  us-sales-tax   — 50-state rate table, 5 product categories (grocery,
                   clothing, digital, medicine, general), per-state
                   exemptions and reduced rates (AR, IL, TN, UT, VA, NC,
                   MO). Sales tax uses seller-state rates; use tax flips to
                   buyer-state. LLM slow path for nexus edge cases.

  us-federal-tax — 2024 IRS marginal bracket tables for single, married
                   filing jointly, and head of household. Standard deduction
                   applied before bracket walk. Returns taxOwed,
                   effectiveRate, marginalRate, per-bracket breakdown.
                   LLM slow path for credits / itemized deductions.

New files:
  packages/sdk/src/tasks/us-tax.js          tasks + static data tables
  packages/sdk/test/us-tax.test.js          37 tests (all passing)
  packages/playground/public/demos/us-tax.html  interactive demo

Modified:
  packages/sdk/src/index.js                 auto-import + export new tasks
  packages/playground/public/index.html     add demo card

Demo features: dynamic line-items invoice, real-time per-item exempt/tax
badges, sales/use tax toggle, full breakdown panel, 2024 bracket table
with active bracket highlighted. Input focus preserved during typing
(display cells updated in-place; input rows rebuilt only on add/remove).

+// US Tax tasks — sales tax and federal income tax.
+//
+// Two tasks ship here:
+//
+//   us-sales-tax    : rules-first (static state rates → product exemptions → LLM for edge cases)
+//   us-federal-tax  : rules-first (2024 bracket table → filing status → LLM for deduction edge cases)
+//
+// Both tasks are rules-first. The fast() path covers the deterministic head
+// using static data (50-state sales tax table, 2024 IRS bracket table). The
+// slow() path falls through to the LLM for complex exemptions, multi-state
+// nexus, itemized deductions, credits, AMT, etc.

+// stateRate and avgLocalRate are decimal fractions (0.06 = 6%).
