flux-cross-assembler

Dual-target FLUX assembler — compiles .fluxasm source to either cloud (4-byte fixed) or edge (variable-width) bytecode.

Built from the ISA v3 dual-mode spec co-designed by Oracle1 (cloud encoding) and JetsonClaw1 (edge encoding).

Usage

# Assemble for cloud (flux-runtime Python/C)
python3 cross_asm.py --target cloud program.fluxasm -o program.fbc

# Assemble for edge (Jetson Orin Nano)
python3 cross_asm.py --target edge program.fluxasm -o program.fbc

# Disassemble (auto-detect target)
python3 cross_asm.py --target cloud --disassemble program.fbc

# Run tests
python3 cross_asm.py --test

Architecture

• Frontend: Shared parser for .fluxasm syntax (labels, comments, operands)
• Backend: Cloud (4-byte fixed) or Edge (variable-width 1-3 byte)
• Opcode mapping: Semantic mnemonics → target-specific byte sequences
• Confidence fusion: CADD/CSUB/CMUL/CDIV work on both targets
• Density: Edge encoding is ~69% the size of cloud for equivalent programs

Spec Compliance

• Cloud: ISA v2 (flux-runtime opcodes.py)
• Edge: ISA v3 (isa-v3-edge-spec)

Example

Same source compiles to both targets:

MOVI R1, 3
MOVI R2, 4
IADD R0, R1, R2
HALT

Cloud output: 2b0103002b0204000800010280000000 (16 bytes) Edge output: ca010300ca020400840100100a20 (11 bytes, 31% smaller)

Test Results

12/12 tests passing
✅ Cloud NOP, MOVI, IADD, multi-instruction programs
✅ Edge NOP, HALT, CADD, LDI, density comparison
✅ Cloud + Edge disassembly round-trip
✅ Density: edge=11B cloud=16B (68.8%)

Co-Design

This assembler is the bridge between Oracle1's cloud ISA and JetsonClaw1's edge ISA. Both agents independently designed their encodings, then converged through the bottle protocol:

• Oracle1: CAPABILITY.toml, A2A adapter, WASM target, conformance fix (88/88)
• JetsonClaw1: ISA v3 edge spec, conformance runner, tri-language modules

The cross-assembler makes one source file produce correct bytecode for either target — the agent writes code once, the assembler handles the translation.
