Red Planet Labs Rama with Gay.jl deterministic coloring for 100x backend development with gay-colored parentheses as expressive as tensor shapes.

"Build end-to-end backends at any scale in 100x less code — with deterministic color streams."
Rama is a new programming platform by Nathan Marz (creator of Storm) that:
This skill adds Gay.jl 3-color streams for:

Map S-expression nesting depth to Gay.jl colors for visual parsing:
(ns rama.gay-parens
(:require [com.rpl.rama :as rama]))
(def GOLDEN 0x9E3779B97F4A7C15)
(defn depth-color [seed depth]
(let [child-seed (bit-xor seed (* depth GOLDEN))]
(color-at child-seed 1)))
;; Visualize module definition
(rama/module TodoModule [setup topologies]
;; │depth 0: #FF6B6B (warm)│
(declare-depot setup *todo-depot :random)
;; │depth 1: #7CB518 (neutral)│
(declare-pstate topologies $$todos {Long (rama/map-schema Long String)})
;; │depth 2: #2E86AB (cold)│
(<<sources topologies
;; │depth 1│
(source> *todo-depot :> %task)
;; │depth 2│
(local-transform> [(keypath %user-id %todo-id) (termval %text)]
;; │depth 3: deterministic by seed + depth│
$$todos)))
Gay colors provide tensor-like shape annotations for Rama data flows:
;; Shape: [batch, users, todos]
;; Color: Trit stream ensures shape consistency
(defn shape-annotated-query
"Query with Gay-colored shape validation."
[depot-client seed]
(let [;; Shape dimension 1: batch (trit=-1)
batch-color (color-at seed 0)
;; Shape dimension 2: users (trit=0)
users-color (color-at seed 1)
;; Shape dimension 3: todos (trit=+1)
todos-color (color-at seed 2)]
{:shape [:batch :users :todos]
:colors [batch-color users-color todos-color]
:gf3-sum (+ -1 0 1) ;; = 0, conserved
:query (rama/query depot-client ...)}))
For the 10k LOC Twitter-scale Mastodon:
(ns mastodon.gay-trace
(:require [com.rpl.rama :as rama]
[music-topos.splitmix :refer [color-at GOLDEN]]))
;; Trace a post through the fanout
(defn trace-post-fanout
"Color-trace a post to all followers."
[post-id author-id followers seed]
(let [;; Author gets warm color (trit=+1)
author-color (color-at seed 0)
;; Each follower gets deterministic color
follower-colors (for [i (range (count followers))]
(color-at (bit-xor seed (* (inc i) GOLDEN)) 1))]
{:post-id post-id
:author {:id author-id :color author-color :trit 1}
:fanout (map-indexed
(fn [i f]
{:follower-id f
:color (nth follower-colors i)
:trit (- (mod i 3) 1)})
followers)
:total-fanout (count followers)
;; Average 403 fanout from Mastodon clone demo
:scale-factor 403}))
Like jaxtyping for tensor shapes, use Gay colors for Rama data shapes:
;; Inspired by jaxtyping: Float[Tensor, "batch channels"]
;; We define: Gay[PState, "users todos -1:0:+1"]
(defmacro defpstate-typed
"Define PState with Gay.jl shape annotations."
[name schema shape-spec]
(let [trits (parse-trit-spec shape-spec)]
`(do
(declare-pstate ~name ~schema)
(def ~(symbol (str name "-shape"))
{:schema '~schema
:trits ~trits
:gf3-conserved (zero? (mod (reduce + ~trits) 3))}))))
;; Usage
(defpstate-typed $$user-todos
{Long (rama/map-schema Long String)}
"users:+1 todos:-1 text:0")
;; => {:schema {...}, :trits [1 -1 0], :gf3-conserved true}
Combine Rama backends with Simulflow voice agents:
(ns rama.simulflow-gay
(:require [com.rpl.rama :as rama]
[simulflow.frame :as frame]
[music-topos.splitmix :refer [color-at]]))
(defn voice-query-handler
"Handle voice queries to Rama with color-coded responses."
[rama-cluster seed]
(fn [transcript-frame]
(let [query-text (:frame/data transcript-frame)
result (rama/query rama-cluster ...)
response-color (color-at seed (:timestamp transcript-frame))]
(frame/speak-frame
{:text (format-result result)
:color response-color
:trit (hue-to-trit (:H response-color))}))))
