Create a Common Lisp macro for the following transformation. Before code:
(ematch0 clause ((list* patterns body) (list* (expand-multipatterns patterns) body)))

What needs to change: Macro call that should be transformed by ematch0

[Assistant]
<think>
The user wants a Common Lisp macro named `ematch0` that performs a specific transformation.
The transformation is defined as:
`(ematch0 clause ((list* patterns body) (list* (expand-multipatterns patterns) body)))`

Let's analyze the input and output.
Input: `(ematch0 clause ((list* patterns body) (list* (expand-multipatterns patterns) body)))`
This looks like a pattern matching macro call.
The structure is: `(ematch0 <target> (<pattern> <template>))`
Here, `<target>` is `clause`.
The pattern is `(list* patterns body)`.
The template is `(list* (expand-multipatterns patterns) body)`.

The macro `ematch0` should take a target expression and a list of clauses. Each clause consists of a pattern and a body/template.
It should match the target against the pattern. If it matches, it should expand to the template with bound variables.

Since the user provided a specific example transformation, I need to implement a pattern matching macro that handles `list*`.
`list*` is similar to `list` but allows a rest element. In pattern matching, `(list* a b rest)` matches a list starting with `a`, then `b`, and the rest of the list is bound to `rest`. Or generally, `(list* elem1 ... elemN rest)` matches a list where the first N-1 elements match `elem1...elemN-1` and the tail matches `elemN`? No, `list*` in Common Lisp constructs a list where the last element is the tail. So `(list* a b c)` is `(a b . c)`.
In pattern matching, `(list* patterns body)` likely means the pattern matches a list where the elements match `patterns` and the final cdr matches `body`. Or perhaps `patterns` is a list of patterns and `body` is the pattern for the tail.
Wait, the example shows:
Pattern: `(list* patterns body)`
Template: `(list* (expand-multipatterns patterns) body)`
This implies `patterns` and `body` are variables bound by the pattern `(list* patterns body)` when matching against `clause`.
So if `clause` is something like `((a b) (c d) . rest)`, then `patterns` would be `((a b) (c d))` and `body` would be `rest`.
Actually, `list*` pattern usually means: match a list where the car matches the first subpattern, and the cdr matches the rest? No.
Standard `list` pattern: `(list a b c)` matches `(a b c)`.
`list*` pattern: `(list* a b c)` matches `(a b . c)` or `(a b c)` if c is a list?
In many pattern matching libraries, `(list* p1 ... pn)` matches a list of length at least n-1, where the first n-1 elements match p1...pn-1, and the tail matches pn.
Here, the pattern is `(list* patterns body)`. This has two elements inside `list*`. So it matches a list where the car matches `patterns` and the cdr matches `body`? Or does it mean `patterns` is a sequence of patterns?
Given the name `expand-multipatterns`, it's likely that `patterns` is a list of patterns.
So `(list* patterns body)` probably means: the target is a list. The elements of the list (except the last) match the patterns in `patterns`, and the last element (or tail) matches `body`.
Actually, `list*` in Lisp is `(cons a (cons b ... (cons x y)))`. So `(list* A B)` is `(A . B)`.
If the pattern is `(list* patterns body)`, it likely matches a dotted list or a list where `patterns` matches the initial elements and `body` matches the final tail.
But `patterns` is a variable. So it binds to a list of patterns?
Let's assume a simpler interpretation for the macro: it's a pattern matcher that supports `list*`.
The macro `ematch0` should expand to code that checks if `clause` matches `(list* patterns body)`. If so, it expands to `(list* (expand-multipatterns patterns) body)`.

I will implement a basic pattern matching macro that handles `list*`.
Structure of `ematch0`:
`(ematch0 target ((pattern1 template1) (pattern2 template2) ...))`
It should try each clause in order.
For the specific case, there's only one clause.

Let's design the macro to handle `list*` patterns.
</think>
(defmacro ematch0 (what &body clauses)
  `(match0 ,what
     ,@clauses
     (_ (error "level0 match error!"))))

You are a Common Lisp macro expert. Given this code pattern:
(signal-syntax-error "Invalid range from ~S to ~S in char-class." from to)

Write a macro that addresses: Macro call that should be transformed by signal-syntax-error

[Assistant]
<think>
The user wants a macro that transforms a specific code pattern.
The pattern is: `(signal-syntax-error "Invalid range from ~S to ~S in char-class." from to)`
Wait, the prompt says "Write a macro that addresses: Macro call that should be transformed by signal-syntax-error".
This is a bit ambiguous. It probably means I need to define a macro that expands into this call, or perhaps a macro that *uses* this call, or maybe the user wants a macro named `signal-syntax-error`? Or maybe a macro that wraps this call?
Actually, looking at the pattern, it's a call to `signal-syntax-error`. In Common Lisp, `signal-syntax-error` is not a standard function. It might be a user-defined function or a macro. But the prompt says "Write a macro that addresses: Macro call that should be transformed by signal-syntax-error".
Perhaps the user wants a macro that expands to this call? Or maybe a macro that generates code to signal a syntax error?
Wait, `signal-syntax-error` is often used in parsers or macro implementations. Maybe the user wants a macro like `check-char-class-range` that expands to this call?
Let's re-read carefully: "Given this code pattern: `(signal-syntax-error "Invalid range from ~S to ~S in char-class." from to)` Write a macro that addresses: Macro call that should be transformed by signal-syntax-error"
This phrasing is weird. It might be from a code generation task or a specific domain.
Maybe the user wants a macro named `signal-syntax-error` itself? But it says "Macro call that should be transformed by signal-syntax-error".
Actually, it might be asking for a macro that *replaces* this call, or perhaps a macro that *generates* this call when certain conditions are met.
Alternatively, maybe the user wants a macro that takes `from` and `to` and expands to that call.
Let's think about standard practices. Often, we define a macro like `fail` or `error` that wraps format strings.
But the prompt says "Macro call that should be transformed by signal-syntax-error". This might mean the macro *is* `signal-syntax-error`, and it should expand to a `error` or `cerror` call with a specific condition type like `reader-error` or `style-warning` or `simple-error`.
In Common Lisp, signaling a syntax error is usually done with `(error 'reader-error :format-control "..." :format-arguments (list from to))` or `(error 'simple-error ...)`.
But `signal-syntax-error` might be a macro that expands to `(error 'simple-error :format-control ... :format-arguments ...)`.
Wait, the prompt says "Write a macro that addresses: Macro call that should be transformed by signal-syntax-error". This is likely a prompt from a dataset where the task is to write a macro that expands to the given pattern, or the given pattern is the *expansion* of the macro.
Actually, it might be simpler: The user wants a macro named `signal-syntax-error` that takes a format string and arguments, and expands to an `error` call.
Or maybe the macro is named `check-range` and expands to that call.
Given the ambiguity, I will define a macro `signal-syntax-error` that expands to a proper Common Lisp error signaling form, using `simple-error` or `reader-error`. But `signal-syntax-error` is often a function in some libraries. If it's a macro, it might just be a wrapper around `error`.
Wait, the prompt says: "Given this code pattern: `(signal-syntax-error "Invalid range from ~S to ~S in char-class." from to)` Write a macro that addresses: Macro call that should be transformed by signal-syntax-error"
This looks like a reverse task: "Here is the expansion, write the macro definition." Or "Here is a call, write a macro that does this."
I'll assume the task is to define a macro `signal-syntax-error` that takes a format string and arguments, and expands to `(error 'simple-error :format-control format-string :format-arguments args)`.
But wait, `signal-syntax-error` might be intended to signal a `reader-error` or `parse-error`. In CL, `reader-error` is standard.
Let's stick to a generic `simple-error` or just `error`.
Actually, many Lisp implementations have `signal-syntax-error` as a macro that expands to `(error 'simple-error ...)`.
Another possibility: The user wants a macro that *checks* a condition and signals the error if false. Like `(unless (> from to) (signal-syntax-error ...))`. But the prompt just gives the call itself.
I will write a macro `signal-syntax-error` that expands to an `error` call. I'll make it handle the format string and arguments properly

You are a Common Lisp macro expert. Given this code pattern:
(augment init-code `((setq ,extra-save-var ,(save-info-iv-ref s-i))))

Write a macro that addresses: Macro call that should be transformed by augment

[Assistant]
<think>
The user wants a macro named `augment` that transforms a specific pattern.
The pattern provided is: `(augment init-code '((setq ,extra-save-var ,(save-info-iv-ref s-i))))`
Wait, the pattern shows a backquote inside the macro call.
Actually, the user provided an example call: `(augment init-code '((setq ,extra-save-var ,(save-info-iv-ref s-i))))`
Wait, the backquote is inside the call.
Let's analyze the structure.
`augment` takes two arguments: `init-code` and a list of forms?
The example shows: `(augment init-code '((setq ,extra-save-var ,(save-info-iv-ref s-i))))`
Actually, the backquote is likely part of the macro's expansion or the user is showing a template.
Wait, the prompt says: "Given this code pattern: `(augment init-code '((setq ,extra-save-var ,(save-info-iv-ref s-i))))`"
It asks to write a macro `augment` that addresses this.
Usually, `augment` might be used to append code to an existing block of initialization code.
Or maybe it's about building up a list of initialization forms.
Let's consider common Lisp patterns. `augment` often takes a variable holding code and appends to it.
But here, the second argument is a quasiquote form.
Maybe `augment` is meant to expand into something like `(setf init-code (append init-code ...))`?
Or maybe it's a macro that adds to a list of forms.
Let's look at the arguments: `init-code` and a template.
If `init-code` is a symbol, `augment` might set it.
But `init-code` could be a place.
Let's assume `augment` appends the expanded forms to `init-code`.
The second argument is a backquoted list.
So `(augment init-code template)` expands to something that evaluates `template` and appends it to `init-code`.
But `init-code` might be a variable.
Let's assume `augment` is defined as:
`(defmacro augment (place template) ...)`
It needs to expand `template` and append to `place`.
Since `template` is backquoted, it contains unquotes.
We need to evaluate the unquoted parts.
Actually, if `template` is passed as code, the macro receives the backquoted form.
When the macro expands, it should evaluate the template? No, macros don't evaluate arguments.
So the macro needs to handle the backquote syntax itself, or rely on the reader.
If the user writes `(augment init-code '((setq ...)))`, the macro receives the list `'((setq ...))`.
Wait, the backquote is `` ` ``.
The prompt shows: `` (augment init-code `((setq ,extra-save-var ,(save-info-iv-ref s-i)))) ``
So the macro receives: `(init-code ,backquoted-list)`
The macro needs to expand this into code that appends the result of evaluating the backquoted list to `init-code`.
But `init-code` might be a variable.
Let's assume `augment` is used like:
`(augment init-code template)`
Expands to: `(setf init-code (append init-code (list ,@template)))`? No.
Maybe `augment` is just a shorthand for appending to a code list.
Let's consider that `init-code` is a symbol.
The macro could be:
`(defmacro augment (code-var forms)
  `(setf ,code-var (append ,code-var ',forms)))`
But the forms contain backquotes.
If the user writes ``(augment init-code `((setq ,x)))``, the macro sees `(init-code ,backquote-form)`.
The macro needs to evaluate the backquote form at runtime? Or expand it at macroexpansion time?
If it's a macro, it expands at compile time. The backquote form contains variables like `extra-save-var` which are dynamic.
So the macro should generate code that evaluates the backquote form.
Wait, backquote is a special operator.
If we use `` `(append ,code-var ',forms) ``, the backquote in `forms` won't be processed correctly if we just quote it.
We need to use `` `(append ,code-var ,forms) ``? No, that would evaluate `forms` at macro expansion time if not quoted.
Actually, if `forms` is a backquoted list passed to the macro, the macro receives the backquoted list structure.
To preserve the backquote semantics, we can use `` `(append ,code-var ,forms) `` inside a backquote?
No, the macro output should be: `(setf init-code (append init-code (list ,@`((setq ...))

Generate a defmacro form that transforms code like this:
(check-cursor-attached cluffer:split-line (cursor))

Pattern to recognize: Macro call that should be transformed by check-cursor-attached

[Assistant]
<think>
The user wants a macro `check-cursor-attached` that takes a function (like `cluffer:split-line`) and a cursor argument (like `(cursor)`), and transforms it into some code that checks if the cursor is attached before calling the function.

Looking at the pattern: `(check-cursor-attached cluffer:split-line (cursor))`

I need to understand what this macro should do. Typically, in a text editor or buffer system, a "cursor" might need to be "attached" to a buffer or line before certain operations can be performed on it. The macro likely wraps the function call with a check.

Let me think about what the expansion should look like. It probably needs to:
1. Evaluate the cursor argument once (or bind it)
2. Check if the cursor is attached
3. If attached, call the function with the cursor
4. If not attached, maybe return nil or signal an error or do nothing

A reasonable expansion might be:
</think>
(defmacro check-cursor-attached (name arguments)
  (let ((args (substitute '(cursor cluffer:cursor) 'cursor arguments)))
    `(defmethod ,name :before ,args
       (declare (ignore ,@(set-difference (remove 'cursor arguments)

       (unless (cluffer:cursor-attached-p cursor)

Generate a defmacro form that transforms code like this:
(define-op (:= infix-op))

Pattern to recognize: Macro call that should be transformed by define-op

[Assistant]
<think>
Here's a thinking process that leads to the suggested `define-op` macro:

1.  **Analyze the Request:**
    *   **Goal:** Create a Common Lisp macro named `define-op`.
    *   **Input Pattern:** `(define-op (:= infix-op))`
    *   **Implicit Requirement:** The user wants to define an operator `:=` that behaves like an infix operator named `infix-op`.
    *   **Context:** Common Lisp doesn't have native infix syntax for standard operators (except arithmetic ones like `+`, `-`, etc., in specific contexts, but generally, functions are prefix). To make `:=` work as an infix operator, we usually need to redefine the reader or use a macro that parses a list. However, the prompt implies a specific transformation.

2.  **Determine the Transformation Strategy:**
    *   *Interpretation 1 (Reader Macro):* The user wants `(a := b)` to be read as `(infix-op a b)`. This requires modifying the readtable. This is complex and global state.
    *   *Interpretation 2 (Macro Expansion):* The user is writing code like `(define-op (:= infix-op))` inside a file. This macro likely needs to define a *reader macro* or a *function* that acts as an infix operator.
    *   *Most likely intent for a "Macro Programmer":* The user wants to define a reader macro for the character `:=` (or a symbol named `:=`) so that when the Lisp reader encounters `:=` in a list, it transforms the surrounding code.
    *   *Refined Intent:* Actually, looking at the pattern `(define-op (:= infix-op))`, it looks like a declaration. The macro `define-op` probably needs to generate a reader macro character or a function definition.
    *   *Let's assume the goal is:* Allow the user to write `(x := y)` and have it expand to `(infix-op x y)`.
    *   *Mechanism:* To make `(x := y)` work, `:=` needs to be a function (prefix) or we need a reader macro that turns `(x := y)` into `(infix-op x y)`.
    *   *Wait, standard CL syntax:* `(x := y)` is parsed as a function call where the function name is `:=` and arguments are `x` and `y`.
    *   *Correction:* If `:=` is just a symbol, `(x := y)` is invalid syntax in CL (variable as function name). The user probably means they want to write `(a := b)` and have it behave like `(setf a b)` or similar.
    *   *Alternative Interpretation:* The user wants to define a *reader macro* for the specific string `:=`. But the input is `(define-op (:= infix-op))`. This looks like defining a *symbol* `:=` to act as an infix operator.
    *   *Let's look at the "Pattern to recognize":* `(define-op (:= infix-op))`.
    *   *What does this expand to?* It likely expands to a `defun` for `:=` (so `(:= x y)` works) AND/OR a reader macro change.
    *   *Let's stick to the simplest interpretation first:* The user wants to define a function named `:=` that takes arguments and passes them to `infix-op`. But that's just `defun`.
    *   *Infix implication:* Usually, "infix" implies `(left := right)`. In CL, this is `(infix-op left right)`.
    *   *Let's assume the macro `define-op` creates a reader macro for the character(s) `:=`.*
    *   *Actually, looking at the specific syntax `(define-op (:= infix-op))`:* This looks like it's defining a *mapping*.
    *   *Hypothesis:* The macro should define a reader macro for the character `:=` (or a sequence) that wraps the surrounding forms.
    *   *Problem:* `:=` is two characters. Reader macros in CL are usually single characters (dispatching or non-dispatching).
    *   *Alternative Hypothesis:* The user wants to write `(a := b)` and have it treated as `(infix-op a b)`. Since CL parses `(a := b)` as a function call to `:=`, the macro `define-op` should probably just define a function `:=` that calls `infix-op`.
    *   *BUT*, if it's truly "infix", the user might be using a library like `infix` or wants a reader macro that parses `(a := b)`.
    *   *Let's go with the most robust "

`(lret* ((offset (- length (length vec))) (element-type (array-element-type vec)) (out (make-array length :element-type element-type))) (replace out vec :start1 offset) (loop for i from 0 below offset by pad-len do (replace out pad :start1 i :end1 offset)))`
It seems `lret*` is like `let*` but the last form is implicitly returned. Actually, `let*` already returns the last form. Maybe `lret*` is just a shorthand for `let*`? Or maybe it's from a specific library like `iterate` or `alexandria`? Actually, `lret*` is often used in `iterate` or `cl-loop` extensions, but here it seems to just be a `let*` that returns the last value. Wait, `let*` does return the last value. Perhaps `lret*` is just an alias for `let*`? Or maybe it's from `cl-ppcre` or `trivial-features`? No, `lret*` is a macro in `iterate`? No.
Actually, `lret*` is a macro in `cl-containers` or `local-time`? No.
Wait, `lret*` is a macro in `cl-who`? No.
Let's search my knowledge for `lret*`. It's often defined as:
`(defmacro lret* (bindings &body body) '(let* ,bindings ,@body))`
But maybe it's from `alexandria`? No.
Actually, `lret*` is a macro in `cl-json`? No.
Wait, `lret*` is a macro in `cl-ppcre`? No.
It might be from `lparallel` or `bordeaux-threads`?
Actually, `lret*` is a macro in `cl-unicode`?
Let's think about the name: `lret*` likely stands for "local return" or "let return". It's very similar to `let*`. In many codebases, `lret*` is just defined as `(defmacro lret* (bindings &body body) `(let* ,bindings ,@body))`.
But maybe it's from `cl-containers` or `cl-metrics`?
Wait, the example shows:
`(lret* ((offset ...) (element-type ...) (out ...)) (replace ...) (loop ...))`
This is exactly `let*` behavior. I will define it as a simple macro that expands to `let*`.
But to be safe, I'll make it handle the bindings and body correctly.
`(defmacro lret* (bindings &body body) '(let* ,bindings ,@body))`
Is there any catch? Sometimes `lret*` is used to return early from a function, but here it's just a binding macro.
Actually, `lret*` is a macro in `cl-who`? No.
It's in `cl-json`? No.
It's in `cl-ppcre`? No.
It's in `cl-containers`? No.

[User]
Define a macro that eliminates this repetitive pattern:
(true "Happy")

Issue: Macro call that should be transformed by true

[Assistant]
<think>
The user wants a macro named `true` that takes a string argument, like `(true "Happy")`.
However, the prompt is extremely brief and lacks context about what the macro is supposed to do.
"Eliminates this repetitive pattern: (true "Happy")"
Usually, macros transform code. If the pattern is just `(true "Happy")`, what is the repetitive part?
Perhaps the user means `(when t "Happy")` or `(if t "Happy" nil)`?
Or maybe it's about returning the string if true?
Without more context, I have to guess the intent.
Common patterns for `true`:
1. `(true x)` -> `x` (if we assume the condition is always true).
2. `(true x)` -> `(if t x nil)`.
3. Maybe it's a typo for `true` as a function? But it says "macro".

Let's look at the "Issue: Macro call that should be transformed by true".
This implies `(true "Happy")` is the call.
If I define `(defmacro true (x) x)`, then `(true "Happy")` expands to `"Happy"`.
This seems the most logical interpretation of "eliminating a repetitive pattern" where the pattern is wrapping a value in a `true` check that is always true.
Alternatively, maybe it's `(true "Happy")` -> `(format nil "Happy")`? No.
Maybe it's `(true "Happy")` -> `(print "Happy")`?
Let's assume the simplest case: The user has code like `(true "Happy")` which is redundant because `true` implies the value is valid/returned.
So `(defmacro true (form) form)` is a good candidate.
Another possibility: The user wants to convert `(true "Happy")` to a boolean check? No, "Happy" is a string.
Let's consider the phrase "repetitive pattern".
Maybe the pattern is `(if t "Happy" nil)` and they want to write `(true "Happy")`.
So the macro expands `(true "Happy")` to `"Happy"`.
Or maybe it expands to `(values "Happy")`.
I will provide a macro that simply returns its argument, effectively removing the wrapper.
Wait, looking at the prompt again: "Define a macro that eliminates this repetitive pattern: (true "Happy")".
This is syntactically ambiguous. Does it mean the pattern *is* `(true "Happy")` and we want to eliminate the `true` part?
Yes, likely. The user writes `(true "Happy")` but wants it to just be `"Happy"`.
So the macro `true` should expand its argument.

Step 1: Pattern is `(true <form>)`.
Step 2: Construct is just `<form>`.
Step 3: Quasiquote is not strictly needed for a single argument, but good practice for robustness if I were adding more. Here, just returning the argument is fine.
Step 4: Variable capture: No bindings, so no capture.
Step 5: Structure: `(defmacro true (x) x)`.

Let's double check if there's a standard library macro like this. No.
Is it possible the user wants `(true "Happy")` to expand to `(if "Happy" "Happy" nil)`? No, that's weird.
Is it possible the user wants `(true "Happy")` to expand to `(format t "Happy")`?
Given the lack of context, the most "macro-like" transformation that "eliminates" the pattern is to unwrap it.
If I write `(defmacro true (x) x)`, then `(true "Happy")` becomes `"Happy"`.
This fits "eliminates this repetitive pattern". The pattern is the verbosity of `true`.

One more thought: Maybe the user is referring to a specific Lisp idiom I'm missing?
"true" is not a standard CL macro.
Maybe it's about `progn`? No.
I'll stick with the identity macro interpretation. It's the safest bet for "eliminating" a wrapper that implies truth.

Wait, could it be `(defmacro true (x) `(if t ,x nil))`?
If the pattern is repetitive, maybe they are writing `(if t ...)` a lot?
But the example is `(true "Happy")`.
If I use `(defmacro true (x) x)`, it's cleaner.
I will explain this assumption in the thinking block.

Refinement:
The prompt is "Define a macro that eliminates this repetitive pattern: (true "Happy")".
This could also mean the user has a pattern like:
</think>
(defmacro true (form &optional description &rest format-args)
  `(eval-in-context
    *context*
    (make-instance 'comparison-result
                   :expression '(true ,form)
                   :value-form ',form
                   :body (lambda () ,form)
                   :expected 'T
                   :comparison 'geq
                   ,@(when description
                       `(:description (format NIL ,description ,@format-args))))))

[User]
Define a macro that eliminates this repetitive pattern:
(of-type symbol 'foo)

Issue: Macro call that should be transformed by of-type

[Assistant]
<think>
The user wants a macro that transforms `(of-type symbol 'foo)` into something else.
Looking at the pattern `(of-type symbol 'foo)`, this looks like a type declaration or a type check.
In Common Lisp, `(declare (type foo symbol))` or `(check-type symbol foo)` or `(typep symbol 'foo)` are common patterns.
However, the prompt says "eliminates this repetitive pattern: (of-type symbol 'foo)".
Usually, `of-type` might be used in some libraries or just as a shorthand for `(typep symbol 'foo)` or `(check-type symbol foo)` or `(the foo symbol)`.
Wait, `(of-type symbol 'foo)` has a quoted type `'foo`.
If it's for declaration, it's usually `(declare (type foo symbol))`.
If it's for checking, it's `(check-type symbol foo)`.
If it's for assertion/coercion, it's `(the foo symbol)`.
Given the name `of-type`, it might be a custom macro the user wants defined, or it's a known idiom.
Actually, in some contexts, `(of-type var 'type)` is used to mean `(typep var 'type)` or `(check-type var type)`.
But the prompt says "Define a macro that eliminates this repetitive pattern: (of-type symbol 'foo)". This implies the macro *is* `of-type`, or it transforms calls to `of-type`? No, "Macro call that should be transformed by of-type" implies `of-type` is the macro name.
Wait, the prompt says: "Define a macro that eliminates this repetitive pattern: (of-type symbol 'foo)". This usually means the macro *name* is `of-type`, and it expands into something standard like `(typep symbol 'foo)` or `(check-type symbol foo)` or `(declare (type foo symbol))`.
Given it takes a quoted type `'foo`, `(typep symbol 'foo)` is a strong candidate. Or `(check-type symbol foo)`.
But `check-type` doesn't take a quoted type in the source, it takes the type directly. `(check-type symbol foo)` expands to checking if `symbol` is of type `foo`.
`typep` takes a quoted type: `(typep symbol 'foo)`.
Another possibility: `(the foo symbol)`. But `the` doesn't take a quote.
Let's assume the macro `of-type` is meant to expand to `(typep symbol 'foo)` or `(check-type symbol foo)`.
Actually, in many Lisp codebases, `of-type` might be defined as `(check-type symbol foo)` or `(typecase symbol (foo ...))`? No.
Wait, the prompt says "eliminates this repetitive pattern: (of-type symbol 'foo)". It might be from a specific library or just an exercise.
I will define `of-type` to expand to `(check-type symbol foo)` or `(typep symbol 'foo)`. `check-type` is better for declarations/assertions. `typep` is for testing.
Given the quote `'foo`, `(typep symbol 'foo)` matches exactly. But `check-type` is often preferred for assertions. I'll stick to `(typep symbol 'foo)` or `(check-type symbol foo)`. Actually, `check-type` expects the type unquoted in the macro call usually, but here it's quoted. So `(typep symbol 'foo)` is safer.
Wait, maybe it's for `declare`? No.
Let's think about `(the foo symbol)`. If the user writes `(of-type symbol 'foo)`, maybe they want `(the foo symbol)`.
Actually, a common pattern in some code is `(of-type var 'type)` -> `(check-type var type)`.
I will define it as `(check-type symbol foo)` because `check-type` is a standard macro that handles the quoting internally if needed, but actually `check-type` expects the type unquoted. So `(of-type symbol 'foo)` -> `(check-type symbol foo)` makes sense.
Alternatively, it could be `(typep symbol 'foo)`.
I'll go with `(typep symbol 'foo)` as it's the most direct translation, or `(check-type symbol foo)`. I'll use `(check-type symbol foo)` as it's more idiomatic for "ensuring" type, but `typep` is for testing. The name `of-type` suggests a predicate. I'll use `(typep symbol 'foo)`.
Wait, the prompt says "eliminates this repetitive pattern". It might be from a specific context like `cl-who` or `alexandria`? Alexandria has `typep`.
Actually, it's likely just an exercise in macro writing. I will define `of-type` to expand to `(typep symbol 'foo)`.

You are a Common Lisp macro expert. Given this code pattern:
(def-neo4j-fun del-node-property (node-id property) :delete (:uri-spec (format nil "node/~A/properties/~A" node-id (if (symbolp property) (string-downcase (symbol-name property)) property))) (:status-handlers (204 (values t body)) (404 (error 'node-not-found-error :uri uri)) (409 (error 'unable-to-delete-node-error :uri uri))))

Write a macro that addresses: Macro call that should be transformed by def-neo4j-fun

[Assistant]
<think>
The user wants a macro `def-neo4j-fun` that generates a function definition for interacting with a Neo4j database.
Looking at the provided example:
`(def-neo4j-fun del-node-property (node-id property) :delete (:uri-spec ...) (:status-handlers ...))`

This macro needs to define a function named `del-node-property` taking arguments `node-id` and `property`.
It uses `:delete` to specify the HTTP method.
`:uri-spec` specifies how to construct the URI.
`:status-handlers` specifies how to handle different HTTP status codes.

I need to infer the general structure of `def-neo4j-fun`.
It likely expands into a `defun` that performs an HTTP request (probably using a library like `drakma` or `cl-http`, but I'll keep it generic or assume a helper function like `neo4j-request`).
The macro should handle:
1. Function name and arguments.
2. HTTP method.
3. URI specification (could be a string or a form evaluating to a string).
4. Status code handling logic.

Let's assume the macro expands to a function that calls a generic `neo4j-request` function.
The `:status-handlers` part looks like a list of cons cells or lists mapping status codes to forms.
In the example: `(204 (values t body)) (404 (error 'node-not-found-error :uri uri)) ...`
This suggests a `cond` or `ecase` structure inside the generated function.

Let's draft the macro structure:
</think>
(defmacro def-neo4j-fun (name lambda-list method &rest args)
  `(progn
     (defun ,name (&key ,@lambda-list)
       (let ((uri ,(cadr (assoc :uri-spec args)))
             (json (encode-neo4j-json-payload ,@(aif (assoc :encode args)
                                                     (cdr it)
                                                     (list '() :string)))))
         (make-neo4j-request ,method uri json
                             (list ,@(mapcar (lambda (handler)
                                               `(list ,(car handler) (lambda (body uri json)
                                                                  ,(cadr handler))))
                                             (cdr (assoc :status-handlers args)))))))))

Create a Common Lisp macro for the following transformation. Before code:
(with-yield-binds (format nil "~A(~{~A~^, ~})" (sql-op-name op) (mapcar #'yield (function-op-expressions op))))

What needs to change: Macro call that should be transformed by with-yield-binds

[Assistant]
<think>
The user wants a Common Lisp macro named `with-yield-binds`.
Looking at the usage example:
`(with-yield-binds (format nil "~A(~{~A~^, ~})" (sql-op-name op) (mapcar #'yield (function-op-expressions op))))`

It seems `with-yield-binds` is intended to wrap a body of code.
Inside the body, there is a reference to `yield`.
The name `with-yield-binds` suggests it might be binding `yield` to something, or perhaps it's a generator-like construct.
However, usually, `with-*` macros in Lisp bind variables in the body.
If the macro is just wrapping the body, where does `yield` come from?
Perhaps `with-yield-binds` is a macro that allows the user to write code that uses `yield`, and the macro expands into a generator or a specific control flow structure?
Or maybe it's simply binding a variable named `yield`?
Let's look at the structure again.
`(with-yield-binds body...)`
The body contains `(mapcar #'yield ...)`.
This implies `yield` is a function or a macro available inside the body.
If `with-yield-binds` is a macro, it likely expands into something that introduces `yield` as a variable (likely a function) or a macro.

Let's assume the standard pattern for `with-` macros:
</think>
(defmacro with-yield-binds (&body body)
  `(let ((*bind-values* nil)
         (*use-global-bind-values* t))
     (values
      (progn ,@body)
      (loop for bind in (reverse *bind-values*)
            append bind))))

Write a Common Lisp macro to handle this code pattern:
(with-access nil
    nil)

Problem: Macro call that should be transformed by WITH-ACCESS

[Assistant]
<think>
The user wants a Common Lisp macro named `with-access`.
The input pattern is `(with-access nil nil)`.
However, the user hasn't specified what this macro should *do*. "Handle this code pattern" is vague.
Usually, `with-access` implies accessing something, perhaps a structure, an object, or a list.
Given the arguments are `nil` and `nil`, it might be a placeholder or a specific edge case.
Without specific requirements, I should probably create a generic macro that takes an object and a body, or perhaps it's a specific library macro like `with-accessors` from Clozure CL or similar.
But since I am an "expert Common Lisp macro programmer", I should probably implement a standard `with-accessors` style macro or ask for clarification? No, the prompt asks me to "Write a Common Lisp macro to handle this code pattern".
I will assume the user wants a macro that allows accessing slots of a structure or object, similar to `with-accessors`.
The pattern `(with-access nil nil)` suggests the first argument is the object (nil) and the second is the body (nil).
Actually, `with-accessors` usually takes a list of accessors and an object.
Example: `(with-accessors ((slot obj)) body...)`
The input `(with-access nil nil)` looks like `(with-access object body)`.
If I strictly follow the input, maybe it's `(with-access object &body body)`.
If the object is `nil`, maybe it does nothing?
Or maybe it's a specific macro for accessing elements of a list or array?
Let's assume it's a generic `with-access` that binds variables to slots of a structure or object using `slot-value` or `getf`.
But wait, the input is specifically `(with-access nil nil)`.
Maybe it's a test case where the object is nil?
I will write a macro that takes an object and a body, and perhaps allows binding slots.
However, without the slot specifications, I can't implement full `with-accessors` behavior.
Maybe the user implies `(with-access object body)` where body is executed with `object` bound to a variable?
Or maybe it's `(with-access (var object) body)`?
The input `(with-access nil nil)` has two arguments.
If it's `(with-access object body)`, then `object` is `nil` and `body` is `nil`.
I'll create a macro that takes an object and a body, and perhaps binds the object to a variable `it` or something, or just evaluates the body.
Actually, a common pattern is `(with-access object body)` where `body` can reference `object`.
But macros usually need to know *what* to access.
Maybe it's `(with-access ((var object)) body)`?
The input has two `nil`s.
I'll assume the signature is `(with-access object &body body)`.
If the user provided `(with-access nil nil)`, maybe they want a macro that handles `nil` gracefully?
I will write a macro that expands to a `let` binding or just the body.
To be safe, I'll implement a simple `with-access` that binds the object to a variable `*access-object*` or just evaluates the body.
Actually, looking at the pattern, maybe it's `(with-access slots object body)`? No, only two args.
I'll go with `(with-access object &body body)`.
The macro will evaluate the object, bind it to a temporary variable, and execute the body.
This allows the body to use the object.
I'll use `gensym` to avoid variable capture.
The expansion will be `(let ((,temp ,object)) ,@body)`.
This is a standard pattern for "with" macros.
I'll explain this reasoning.
Wait, maybe `with-access` is from a specific library? `with-accessors` is common.
I'll stick to a simple implementation that binds the object.
If the user meant something else, they didn't specify.
I will generate the macro carefully.
Structure:
</think>
(defmacro with-access ((&rest keys) val-form &body body)
  "Similar to with-accessors except using the access functions"
  (let* ((gval (gensym "val"))
     (forms
      (iter (for k in keys)
        (for (k-to k-from) = (if (listp k) k (list k k)))
        (collect `(,k-to (access ,gval ',k-from))))))
    `(let ((,gval ,val-form))
       (declare (ignorable ,gval))
       (symbol-macrolet (,@forms)
     ,@body
     ))))
