marduk-plan 0.2.1

Python implementation of the PLAN instruction set.

marduk

A standalone Python runtime for the PLAN virtual machine.

Status: pre-alpha. The package is a placeholder — the spec-faithful core, BPLAN op coverage, and jet overlay land in subsequent commits. Until then, callers that need a Python PLAN runtime use packages/plan-kernel/'s vendored harness.

Goals

• Spec-faithful core. A direct translation of vendor/reaver/doc/plan-spec.txt — E/R/H/J/B/S/C/I/X as Python functions over a Thunk-cell value type with update-in-place force. Strictness comes from the spec's ; sequencing, not from Python's evaluation order.
• Complete BPLAN op coverage. All of Reaver's op 66 named primitives, including the IO family that today's harness stubs.
• Jet overlay. An optional id-keyed performance layer; correctness lives in the spec-faithful interpreter regardless of jet presence.
• Differential against Reaver. A small Plan Asm corpus run on both Marduk and Reaver in CI.
• No coupling to gallowglass. Marduk imports nothing from gallowglass; gallowglass eventually depends on Marduk as a library.

Non-goals

• Native-speed PLAN execution. Marduk is correctness-first; production workloads belong on Reaver.
• Hosting Reaver-itself-as-BPLAN. A future possibility once IO ops and performance reach the bar; not in scope for the initial release.
