The machine instruction set is generated from the CPU generating tools per family member.
The lowest level you'd want to get in terms of hand-writing "assembly" would be genAsm, http://millcomputing.com/wiki/GenAsm_%28language%29 http://millcomputing.com/wiki/GenAsm_%28language%29 , but there are no released emulators or simulators yet.
genAsm is a pretty generic language, and the OS's specializer will compile that to the architecture-specific machine instructions.
