This is a beautiful architectural requirement. You are describing two of the
most legendary, battle-tested features of classic LPC MUD drivers (like MudOS,
DGD, and your GDLPC):
1. **Dynamic Dispatch (`virtual_function`):** Catching calls to non-existent
methods on the fly to prevent fatal runtime crashes.
2. **State/Logic Separation (Hot-Reloading):** Recompiling the bytecode of a
program while keeping all the memory and variables of the running clones 100%
intact, with zero memory leaks.
In your C/C++ GDLPC driver, implementing this required deep, complex
memory-stack manipulation. But because we are targeting modern JavaScript (and
`mquickjs` inside HAUKI OS), we have native, highly optimized built-in
features designed *exactly* for this: **Proxies** and **Prototypal
Inheritance**.
### 1. How we achieve `virtual_function` (The Invisible Shield)
We use the **JavaScript `Proxy` API**. A Proxy acts as an invisible wrapper
around an object. If the AI Planner hallucinates a function call like
`worker->search_web("query")`, the VM normally throws a fatal `TypeError` and
crashes. Our Proxy intercepts that failure, checks if `search_web` exists, and
if not, dynamically returns a fallback function that routes the call to your
`virtual_function(name, ...args)`.
### 2. How we achieve Hot-Reloading (Zero Memory Leaks)
In LPC, a *Blueprint* holds the functions, and a *Clone* holds the variables.
In JS, we replicate this using `Object.create(blueprint)`.
When you update a program, we simply mutate the function pointers on the
Blueprint. Because all active clones inherit from that blueprint, **every
running instance instantly gets the updated code** without losing a single
byte of their internal state variables!
Here is the upgraded engine that implements both features gracefully:
### **`gdlpc_repl_v2.js` (Crash-Proof Edition)**
