Split the flat 38-file selfhost/ into concern-based subdirectories:
frontend/ lex, parse, parse_game, ast
support/ str, buf, io
backend/ core IR + expression/statement lowering
backend/game/ ECS/scene/event/world lowering
backend/stdlib/ the namespaced Math.*/Text.*/Crypto.*/… intrinsics
and split the three oversized emitters at responsibility boundaries so
no file mixes concerns:
emit_game.ludic -> + emit_world.ludic (reflection world table,
tick helpers, @main synthesis)
emit_expr.ludic -> + emit_call.ludic (namespaced builtins, call
lowering, expr dispatch)
emit_text.ludic -> + emit_text_prelude.ludic (emitted string-builder runtime)
FRAGS in tools/x/selfhost.ludic is updated to the new paths with the link
order preserved, and the Python doc/vocabulary tooling is updated to walk
the new layout. Because the build is a plain in-order concatenation and
every split lands on a blank-line boundary, the regenerated seed is
byte-identical: `x reseed` leaves selfhost/ludicc.seed.ll unchanged,
`x bootstrap-cfree` still reaches its fixed point, and both `x test` (56)
and `x selfhost-test` (29, incl. golden renders) stay green.
Closes#29

Groups B and C of the leftover-primitive cleanup — renames, not new machinery,
and deliberately NO unsafe_ prefix (a __-prefix is itself a C convention, and an
`unsafe` marker carries no signal in a fully-manual-memory language with no safe
subset to contrast against).
memory: mem_free -> free mem_realloc -> resize mem_set -> fill
ptr_add -> offset
process: os_argc -> arg_count os_arg -> arg os_exit -> exit
os_system -> run os_getenv -> getenv read_byte -> read_char
dead: mem_copy, os_time, write_byte (0 uses) — deleted
Two reseeds: accept both old and new names in the intrinsic dispatch, then
migrate every call site and drop the old names. file_open/read/write/seek/tell/
close are left as-is — they're the domain-prefixed syscall layer wrapped by
read_file, not the argc/argv-style C-ness the audit targeted; a `File` type is a
separate, larger design if wanted.
test.sh's CLI smoke updated (os_exit -> exit); check-vocabulary's grammar marker
moved off the deleted names. Reseeded (22243 lines); C-free fixpoint holds;
goldens identical; 18/18; vocab + doc-fences clean.

Allocation reads as intent, not malloc:
mem_alloc(64) -> bytes(64) (64 bytes -> a byte buffer)
mem_alloc(w * h * 4) -> words(w * h) (w*h 32-bit words)
bytes(n) mallocs n bytes and returns a plain pointer (byte-indexed); words(n)
mallocs n*4 bytes and returns a `words` pointer (int-indexed). Since words(X) and
mem_alloc(X*4) allocate the identical number of bytes, the migration cannot change
any allocation size — the `* 4` factor just moves from the argument into the
allocator name, pairing naturally with the Phase-7j `words` retyping
(`var fb: words = words(w * h)`).
Migrated 102 sites (mem_alloc(E*4) -> words(E), else bytes(E)); deleted the
mem_alloc intrinsic. mem_realloc/free/copy/set stay as the low-level
reallocation/free family. Reseeded (22565 lines); C-free fixpoint holds; goldens
byte-identical; 18/18; vocab + doc-fences clean.

check-vocabulary.py now extracts the keywords selfhost/parse*.ludic actually
dispatches on and requires the header's declaration/clause keywords to be a
subset (LUDIC_KW_RESERVED exempts documented-but-unimplemented scene/layer/on/
start, itself checked so an implemented reserved word must be promoted). Closes
the highlighted-but-unparsed loop against the real compiler; verified it catches
an injected bogus keyword.
Reconciled the drift it exposed across ludic_syntax.h, JetBrains, TextMate, and
emacs: dropped scene/layer/on/start (->RESERVED), the never-implemented
needs/uses/requires/ensures/invariant/effects clauses, and the retired
edge/export/pure prefixes; added enum/main. @annotations highlight generically.
Tooling-only (no seed change): test.sh 14/14, check-vocabulary + test-tools 28/0.
Phases 1-5 complete.

Self-hosted compiler (selfhost/*.ludic), runtime, examples, editor tooling,
and docs. Phase 1 of the syntax-redesign cohesion pass has landed:
edge-system fix, signature-query, when-alias, and the documentation truth-pass.
Suite green (14/14), C-free bootstrap fixpoint holds.
