A layered concurrency library, safe by default. The recommended tier is Job.* / Promise.*: a Job is a future — Job.run(kind, arg) starts a cooperative background compute that advances each Job.pump(budget) and finishes after enough frames (heavy work spreads out instead of hitching), or Job.defer + Job.fulfill/fail/cancel drives one by hand. Poll with done/ok/failed/cancelled, read result/error, count outstanding work with Job.pending. Promise.all/race combine handle lists into a group job resolved on the main thread; Promise.count_done/all_done power a loading bar. The advanced, opt-in Sync.* tier (mutex/atomic/channel + cpu_count) is the "here be dragons" surface for engine-level message passing. The whole thing is a deterministic cooperative scheduler: results are collected on the main thread and a Job never touches the ECS world, so lockstep and replays stay bit-exact — same jobs + same budget reproduce byte-for-byte on every target, and a preemptive OS-thread backend can slot behind this same API later. Ludic has no closures, so a Job carries a compute kind + int arg (or a hand-driven defer) rather than fn()->…, and Promise progress is polled rather than chained through then. Written in Ludic and spliced on demand (like Regex/Dict/Numeric): a program that never mentions Job.*/Promise.*/Sync.* compiles byte-identically and the C-free bootstrap fixpoint is untouched. New: runtime/native/jobs.ludic, emit_ns_call dispatch, parse-time splice, examples/library/jobs.ludic (31 self-asserting checks), 33 docs pages + inventory, changeset.

Background work that stays out of the frame. A Job is a future — a handle to a result that lands later. Kick one off with Job.run (a background compute that advances a little each Job.pump and finishes after enough frames, so heavy work never hitches) or Job.defer (a future you resolve yourself with Job.fulfill / Job.fail). Poll it with done / ok / failed / cancelled, read result / error, and always collect on the main thread — a Job must never touch the ECS world directly. The scheduler is deterministic and cooperative, so the same jobs and the same budget reproduce byte-for-byte, every run and every target. Arguments are positional. Spliced in only when a program mentions Job.*.
