Reviewed changes
- New
assembly-wasmlanguage — x86-64 assembly assembled by Keystone and executed by Unicorn, both loaded at run time by@live-codes/assembly-wasmand run in a dedicated worker (the emulator is synchronous). - Host runner + worker (
lang-assembly-wasm-script.ts) — id-routedpendingmap,settleReadyboot handshake,livecodes.assemblyWasm(asmalias), namespace-parkedinit/runnerfor live reload,loadedpolling promise that rejects via afailedflag, and a{ output, errors, exitCode }result mapping. - Registry/build wiring — language spec,
languages.ts,scripts/build.js,vendors.ts(new Keystone/Unicorn/assembly-wasm URLs, monaco-languages0.3.8→0.3.9),models.ts(text/assemblyscript type, template aliases), SDKLanguage/TemplateName. - Starter, docs, gallery, i18n — starter template, language docs page, docs sliders/template list, command menu, storybook, Cloudflare/PHP template maps, EN i18n, README language count, vendor license notes.
- Tests — unit spec for the language spec plus two Playwright starter flows (UI and URL), gated on the runtime load.
Verified this run: prettier, eslint, tsc --noEmit, the new unit spec, and test:i18n-export all pass; the four vendored package versions and the exact files they reference exist; the package's API (createCompiler is async and loads both runtimes before resolving) and constants.js (10M-instruction budget, 64 KiB code/stack at 0x1000000/0x2000000) match the docs.
Technical details
# Notes for the author
## What was verified
- `@live-codes/assembly-wasm@0.1.0` exposes `self.assemblyWasm.createCompiler` in its IIFE build; `createCompiler` awaits both loaders before resolving, so the worker's `ready` genuinely means "assembler + emulator loaded".
- `run()` resolves `{ output, errors, exitCode }`; `errors` is `[fault]`/`[diagnostic]` and empty on a clean exit, matching the host's `errors.filter(Boolean)` test.
- `DEFAULT_MAX_INSTRUCTIONS = 10_000_000`, `CODE_BASE/SIZE` and `STACK_BASE/SIZE` match the limitations section of the new docs page.Nitpicks
src/livecodes/languages/assembly-wasm/lang-assembly-wasm-script.ts:201—assemblyWasm.runner ??= undefined;is a no-op (it only assigns when the value is null/undefined, so it never changes anything). The runner is actually parked byassemblyWasm.runner = assemblyWasm.runner || createRunner()at line 250; the line and its "parked on the persisted namespace" comment can go.- The alias lists disagree. The spec
extensionsincludes bothasm-wasmandassembly-wasm;docs/docs/languages/assembly-wasm.mdx:98omitsassembly-wasm;.agents/skills/livecodes/language-support/references/languages.md:152omitsasm-wasm. Worth settling on one canonical list. docs/docs/languages/assembly-wasm.mdx:9and:119say onlyread,writeandexitare served, but the package also servesexit_group(0xe7) as an alias forexit.

WalkthroughThis change adds Assembly (Wasm), an x86-64 assembly language that runs through Keystone and Unicorn in a browser worker. It also adds a starter template and registers the language and template across LiveCodes, documentation, and examples. ChangesAssembly (Wasm)

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to Assembly users may be unable to retry after an execution error, and a stalled replacement worker can leave a later run waiting indefinitely. These issues are limited to the new Assembly workflow and can be worked around by reloading, so merge risk is low with owner follow-up.

Handle null output before splitting it.
When an Assembly run fails, run() returns a null output and an error. Both the initial update and click handler pass that output to update(). The null guard must display the error and reenable the button before returning. This also lets the initial load finish registering the click handler.
🐛 Suggested fix
- update(livecodes.assemblyWasm.output);
+ update(livecodes.assemblyWasm.output, livecodes.assemblyWasm.error);
button.onclick = async () => {
button.disabled = true;
// The current count is the program's standard input, so every run is a fresh
// program that reads it, adds one and prints the result.
- const { output } = await livecodes.assemblyWasm.run(window.count);
- update(output);
+ const { output, error } = await livecodes.assemblyWasm.run(window.count);
+ update(output, error);
};
- function update(output) {
+ function update(output, error) {
const counter = document.querySelector("#counter");
const name = document.querySelector("#name");
+ if (output == null) {
+ button.innerText = error || "Error";
+ button.disabled = false;
+ return;
