**P1-1 — layout invalidation could suppress the authoritative clear.**
Real bug. Both render paths resolved the document identity AFTER the
evaluator ran callbacks, but BOTH outcome arms carry PHASE-1 contexts.
A provider that closes the primary document split changes
`primary_document_window` mid-evaluation, so the filter compared
phase-1 contexts against a replacement identity, matched nothing, and
emitted no clear — leaving stale statusline text on the wire forever.
The identity is now captured BEFORE `evaluate_statusline` runs and
threaded through both paths (the terminal path via `terminal_chrome`).
Pinning it took three attempts, and the two failures are the useful
part:
- `pmacs.window.close()` takes no argument — it closes the ACTIVE
window. The first version passed a window id that was silently
ignored, so it closed the panel instead of the document.
- The Lua window API acts on the ACTIVE FRONTEND, so driving it against
a synthetic semantic view changed nothing at all.
- Closing the only document window is structurally REFUSED (Q#BP6
forbids a lone side window as a resting state), so the fixture needs
TWO document windows for the close to be legal.
The test now asserts its own precondition — that the callback really
changed the identity — before asserting the clear, and reproduces the
reported symptom (no `StatuslineSegments` at all) when the fix is
reverted.
**P1-2 — #21 was pinned at the helper, not the producer.** Confirmed:
reverting only the call site inside
`publish_buffer_snapshot_to_replicas` left both the helper test and the
existing socket-pair test green. The helper assertions are removed (with
a note saying why) and replaced by
`snapshot_publication_follows_the_document_under_a_focused_panel`, which
drives the real producer over socket pairs and asserts BOTH directions:
the document buffer's snapshot is delivered while a panel holds focus,
and a panel-only buffer's is not.
Biting that test exposed a defect in the test itself: the delivery read
had no timeout, so a regression made it HANG rather than fail. A hanging
test is strictly worse than a red one — every read now has a timeout.

**P1-1 — the `Invalidated` arm published the panel context on the
document wire.** Real bug, and the live half of the routing defect: the
semantic peer has ONE statusline slot, so emitting an
authoritative-empty payload for every context replaced the document's
with the panel's. Now filtered by document-window identity exactly like
the `Ready` arm; a panel's own clear belongs to `PanelFrame` in 2B.
Pinned by `invalidated_statusline_clears_only_the_document_not_the_panel`,
which reproduces the reported shape — two targets instead of one — when
the filter is removed.
Honest note on the `Ready` arm: its identity selector is **defensive**,
not independently falsifiable today, because the document context is
captured first so "first context for my frontend" happens to pick it.
Rather than leave that as a silent dependency,
`the_semantic_fan_out_captures_the_document_first` pins the order and
says why it matters.
**P1-2 — round-1 finding 3 was not closed; four of my pins were
vacuous.** All four confirmed and fixed:
- The statusline consumer test discarded `render_frame`'s output. It now
observes the WIRE payload from a v18 peer with a registered provider,
and asserts non-emptiness so it cannot pass by emitting nothing.
- The terminal test compared two NON-terminal buffers, so both routings
answered `false`. The document window now holds a REAL terminal, so
the routes disagree; reverting `semantic_terminal_key` fails it.
- The decorations test used different buffers and an empty selection —
again the same answer either way. The panel now displays the declared
buffer with a non-empty selection while the document has none.
- #1/#3/#21 had no discriminating pin at all. Their only production
caller is `dispatcher_loop`, which no test can drive, so this extracts
three named seams the loop calls — `document_buffer_to_follow`,
`document_cursor_byte`, `peer_displays_buffer_as_document` — and pins
each.
Also newly pinned: #2 the lazy CRDT upgrade (the census's sharpest
case), #7 `Viewport` aligning WITHOUT taking focus, and #9 a focused
terminal panel not suppressing the document viewport.
**Every one of the nine pins was falsified by revert.** Two needed a
second attempt after the first bite came back green.
**P2-3 — stale docs.** `StatuslineEvaluationTarget::Semantic`'s
documentation described evaluating only the focused window; it now
describes the document-plus-side fan-out, the capture order, the
identity-selection requirement, and that `active` reports actual focus.
The ledger's Stage 2A entry is corrected to five commits, 2,014 CRDT
tests, and 16 acceptance tests.
Two clippy findings the refactor introduced were fixed:
`document_buffer_to_follow` is `crdt`-gated to match its only caller,
and the `CursorByte` guard collapses into one `if`.

Integrates canonical `main` @ `cf54270` and closes every finding.
**P1-1 — a stale document `Pointer` stole focus from the panel.** Real
bug. `align_primary_document_window`'s unknown-buffer arm returned
`Some(window)` despite aligning nothing, so #8's activation focused the
document *before* `dispatch_pointer` rejected the mismatched buffer. It
now returns `None`: alignment did not happen, so no caller may treat it
as a document gesture.
Pinned through `handle_dispatcher_event` — the real dispatcher seam —
because the defect lived in the PAIR of alignment and activation, not
in either alone. **The first version of that test was vacuous**: an
unregistered session is dropped at `daemon.rs:1962` (#148's
membership check) before the aligner runs, so it passed with the bug
restored. It now registers a real semantic session and fails with
exactly the reported symptom, focus moving `WindowId(2)` →
`WindowId(3)`.
**P1-2 — the approved A2A-2 fan-out was missing.** The semantic target
returned one context. It now captures the primary document PLUS the
visible side window, each provider invoked once, with a
derived-hidden side omitted (Q#BP2b — no mode line to paint, so no
callback should run for it). The acceptance asserts `windows.len() == 2`.
This exposed a second defect the finding did not name: the consumer
selected segments with `.find(|w| w.context.frontend_id == frontend_id)`
— the FIRST context for the frontend. With two contexts that silently
depended on capture order and could have shipped the panel's mode-line
text as the document status band. `emit_statusline_segments` now takes
the document `WindowId` and selects on window identity.
**P1-3 — the census suite tested the authority, not the consumers.**
Confirmed: reverting a producer to `active_window_for` left all ten
tests green. Added consumer-level pins that drive the real producers
through `SemanticRenderState::render_frame` with a panel focused, plus
the terminal-declaration guard. Bite-verified: reverting the
`LineNumbers` routing now fails
`consumer_line_numbers_follow_the_document_not_the_focused_panel`.
**P1-4 — main integrated.** The textual conflict was `docs/active-work.md`
(both lanes rewrote the same region; the terminal-config lane is kept
whole and the bottom-panel heading updated). `src/editor.rs` auto-merged,
and the full gate suite was rerun on the merge result.
**P2-5 — the painter test was vacuous.** A fixed-point check that
survived deleting `window.text_view.render`. It now asserts each of the
four extracted outputs actually appears: buffer TEXT, the line-number
GUTTER (with line numbers explicitly enabled, rather than dropping the
assertion), the window MODE LINE, and a returned caret. Bite-verified
by deleting the render call.
**P2-6 — the stale fold-projection claim is corrected.**
`src/window.rs`'s `fold_projection` doc no longer asserts that a
semantic session never enters `paint_frame`; it records that the panel
band breaks that premise and that the extracted painters take the map
as a parameter.

Make command-time attachment healing cancel an armed terminal restart
before replacing the server, while keeping request-only lookup pure and
restart-safe.
Track config-driven server ownership privately, bound every fallback
server per SID, scope no-swap retirement to the failed root, and route
the shipped Lean diagnostics command through the safe resolver while
waiting for initialization.
Add direct acceptance counterexamples for all five review findings and
record the sixth-round verification and vacuity lesson.
Bottom-panel Stage 2A, second half (Q#BP8, Q#BP17). Still no protocol
change and no behavior change: `paint_frame` builds the same fold map
it always did and passes it in, so grid rendering is unchanged.
Two extractions, both taking the fold map as a **parameter** rather
than building it:
- `prepare_window_cursor_visible` — the active-window auto-scroll
clamp. The panel band (2B) runs this for its own window when that
window owns focus, and leaves a passive panel's `view_top` alone.
- `paint_window_content` — the per-window document body: text, gutter,
overlays, selection, and the mode line. The panel paints into a
panel-sized grid at the same origin-agnostic `Viewport`, so this is
that body lifted out, not a second painter (Bet B2').
The parameter is the point (Q#BP17). Folding built its per-window map
ungated on the premise that "a semantic session never enters
`paint_frame`", which the panel band breaks. The panel path must pass
`None` for a frontend whose `fold_projection` is false, and must not
call `EditorCore::fold_map_for_window` — that gates on the **active**
frontend, which is right for command-time reckoning and wrong for
painting another frontend's panel.
`tests/bottom_panel_stage2a_acceptance.rs` — 10 tests. The negative
half is the load-bearing half, so Projection assertions are paired
with focus-class assertions taken in the SAME state:
- `focus_and_projection_disagree_in_the_same_state` is the key one:
with a panel focused, the focus authority must name the panel while
the projection authority names the document. Routing the focus class
through `primary_document_window` fails this even though every
Projection test still passes.
- The statusline pair pins the split: the LOOKUP resolves the document
window while `active` reports actual focus, with a non-vacuity twin
that flips `active` back to true when focus returns.
- The extraction pair pins cells, the returned cursor, the focused
window's `view_top`, AND a passive window's untouched scroll —
identical cells alone would not catch a clamp that moved to the
wrong window on a single-window frame.
- `the_panel_fixture_really_builds_a_side_window` pins the fixture's
own precondition, since every other test is worthless if
`focused_panel` silently produced an ordinary split.
One crdt-gated caller of the old `align_semantic_window_to_buffer` was
updated; it compiles only under `--features crdt`, which is the
config CI never runs.

Five findings, all real. The blocker and both majors are the same
mistake in three places: a claim asserted somewhere cheaper than where
it actually lives.
COHERENCE.md was stale in four places, not the three reported. Step 8
still read "no keybinding" and §11 still read "five settings", but §6's
dispatch table also still cited `is_terminal_escape_chord` — a symbol
this branch deletes. §25 requires that update to ride the PR, so a PR
changing audited ground truth has to re-grep the audit for its own
symbols, not only for its topic.
Acceptance 5 asserted a registry round-trip, which is a test of the
registry: it stayed green with the setting's only consumer deleted. It
now opens a real terminal whose child overflows the 24-row screen,
scrolls the view to its oldest retained row, and asserts LINE001 is
present at 10,000 and absent at 0.
Acceptance 8a waited for the session count to fall, which the rejected
editor-side cache map satisfies exactly — a map with no purge hook
leaks while sessions drain. Adds `TerminalManager::escape_caches()`, the
lifetime half of Q#TC4c's contract that `escape_parses` cannot cover.
`table.sort` over `pmacs.terminal.profiles` raised "attempt to compare
number with string" on the unknown-profile path whenever the user's
table held both a string and a numeric key, replacing the exact
diagnostic being asked for; `%q` raised likewise on a non-string
`profile` argument. Both are partial functions applied to user input on
a diagnostic path.
Also corrects the framing's status line, and a status message whose
embedded whitespace run had survived a rustfmt reflow.
Three new bites, each falsified by revert: deleting the scrollback
consumer fails acc5 and only acc5; restoring the raw-key sort
reproduces the comparison error verbatim; and implementing the rejected
map fails the new acc8a at left: 2, right: 1 while passing the old
session-count version.

Round 5 review: one P1, a frontend scope hole, and three P2s.
**1. A fallback that SPAWNS and then dies retried forever.** The
once-per-buffer guard bounds calls to `_attach_buffer`, not the server
those calls produce. `ensure_server` still never forwards `cfg.restart`,
so the fallback inherits `OnCrash`; an executable that exits before
`initialize` is respawned by the manager with no attempt ceiling —
silently, because `latched` has already disabled the primary's failure
poll. The fallback now gets its own one-shot die-before-initialize
watch, which retires it (ending the respawn loop) and reports.
The prior failing-fallback test used a NONEXISTENT executable, so it
only ever exercised synchronous ENOENT. To reach "spawned, then died"
the fixture has to actually spawn.
**2. Simultaneous frontends.** Both repair triggers read the ambient
`pmacs.window.buffer()`, and the daemon restores `active_frontend` to
the last-dispatched frontend before `tick_processes` — so a Lean buffer
active in ANOTHER frontend receives no `buffer.after-switch` here and
stays stale after its server is globally retired.
Fixed at the seam that is frontend-agnostic: **make consumption safe.**
`attached_for_active` now rebuilds rather than returning a record whose
server is dead, and `attachment_for_request` reports none (it must not
perturb LSP state, so it cannot rebuild). Whichever frontend runs a
command is the active one while it runs, so healing at the point of use
reaches every buffer no eager sweep can. This also closes the half where
a dead attachment was handed to a command and the request vanished.
**3. The retirement sweep stopped user-managed servers.** Selecting on
`language_id == "lean4"` also names servers the user spawned from
`init.lua`, which are not derived from `pmacs.lsp.config.lean4`. It now
keys on the `default-lean4` label `ensure_server` stamps — the
derivation discriminator.
**4. Repair ran even when no swap occurred.** `swap_to_fallback()`
returning false left `latched` true, so the next tick retried the
UNCHANGED configuration and reported it as a fallback failure. Split
into `probe.fallback_installed`: repair exists to apply a swap, so no
swap means nothing to apply.
**5. The once-per-buffer assertion counted table keys**, which cannot
distinguish "once per buffer" from "every tick for one buffer" —
cardinality stays 1 either way. Replaced with a numeric attempt counter;
the bite reports 174 attempts against the expected 1.
Five bites, each against 7c37bdc: no fallback watch -> attempt reaches
4; retire by language_id -> the user's server is stopped; gate repair on
`latched` -> a repair is attempted with no swap; drop the
once-per-buffer guard -> 174 vs 1; hand back a dead attachment -> a
command receives a `stopped` server.
Two more vacuity shapes recorded in the ledger (8 and 9): counting
distinct keys cannot bound repeated work, and a nonexistent executable
cannot reach any post-spawn failure.
Round 4 review: one P1, and it is the same defect for the FOURTH time.
`pmacs.lsp.config.lean4` is a single global entry, so swapping its
command invalidates **every** Lean buffer and **every** Lean server —
Q#LN15 gives one server per project root, so there can be several.
Rounds 1-3 each repaired one buffer and retired one server, and round 3
shipped "repair the armed target, strand the rest": status and config
said fallback while a second open Lean buffer stayed on the retired
command, and a second project root's server stayed live.
The shape that actually holds:
* **Retire ALL `lean4` servers on latch**, not the one the probe
happened to name. `probe.primary` identifies the server the VERDICT
is about; it was never the set of servers the swap invalidates.
* **Repair each buffer lazily and at most once**, when it becomes
active — on `buffer.after-switch` and on the tick. `_attach_buffer`
is an active-buffer-only seam, so a global swap cannot be applied to
every open buffer at once; it has to be applied as they surface.
lsp.lua's own `after-switch` re-pushes views but does not rebuild a
stale attachment, so nothing else covered this.
* The **once-per-buffer bound** is load-bearing: without it a fallback
that also fails to spawn would retry every tick forever — the
round-2 defect, which a naive global repair loop would reintroduce
for every buffer instead of just one.
* `shutting-down` is deliberately not treated as stale. It is still
live by `server_is_live`'s reckoning, so attaching would early-return
the stale record and burn that buffer's single attempt on a no-op.
P2: argument-inclusive attribution was implemented in round 3 but pinned
only by "contains the command name", so a mutation dropping every
argument passed. Now asserted against the exact `<command> <args>`
string.
Also fixed a vacuous assertion this refactor created: a test checked
`_probe.reattach_from == nil` for a field that no longer exists, which
reads as nil and passes for nothing. It now asserts a positive count of
recorded repair attempts.
Three bites, each against 73587b0: repair only the armed buffer -> the
second buffer stays on `lake`; retire only the named server -> one live
stale server remains; drop arguments from attribution -> the exact-string
assertion fails.
The ledger records a second durable lesson beside the vacuity one: **a
scope error repeats until the scope is named.** Four rounds of locally
correct fixes, none of which asked what the config swap invalidates.
When a change edits shared state, enumerate everything derived from it
before repairing anything.
Round 3 review: two P1 asynchronous-correlation defects, with the
focused suite at 25/25 while both were live.
**1. A late version verdict retired nothing and claimed success.**
`probe.watching` is cleared the moment the server initializes — it is
failure-polling state. A slow `lake --version` landing after a
successful initialize therefore reached `fire_latch(nil)`, which retires
nothing: `_attach_buffer` found the still-live primary attachment,
early-returned it, and the retry counted that as done. Status said
"falling back", the config named the fallback, and the buffer stayed on
the old server.
**That is the round-1 silent no-op arriving through a third event
ordering** — first as "no re-attach at all", then as "re-attach cleared
by an unrelated buffer", now as "re-attach satisfied by the server we
were supposed to replace". The fix separates the two facts that were
being carried by one field: `probe.primary` is the server the verdict
applies to and survives initialization; `probe.watching` is the
failure poll and is cleared by it.
The existing fixture could not reach this ordering at all — its `serve`
sleeps, so the primary can never initialize before `--version` returns.
The new one execs the fake LSP for `serve` and delays 0.6s before
reporting 3.0.0.
**2. `buf_key` was the most recently loaded Lean buffer.** Written on
every Lean `buffer.after-load`, so a second Lean file opened before the
verdict became the rebuild target while the latch still watched the
FIRST buffer's server. Target buffer and primary server are one fact and
are now armed together, exactly once. Both files in the new test share a
package, so mis-targeting shows up as a stranded buffer rather than as
two unrelated servers.
**3. The failure message hardcoded `lake serve`** after the latch became
command-agnostic, telling a user whose `my-lean-wrapper` failed to go
debug lake. `configured_command()` names what is actually configured,
arguments included.
**4. The ledger** now records all fifteen bites across the three rounds,
both prior review rounds' findings (the round-2 block was lost when an
earlier edit script aborted before writing), and the durable lesson.
That lesson, recorded for the handoff: **six tests across three rounds
were written, ran green, and pinned nothing** — caught only by biting.
The shapes are enumerated in the ledger; the rule is that a test is not
evidence until the mutation it targets has been shown to fail it. Two
of the six are subtle enough to be worth naming here: a bite that
RAISES is swallowed by the hook's pcall and "passes" for the wrong
reason, and a fixture whose `serve` sleeps cannot reach any ordering
where the primary comes up first.
Stage 1 of the terminal config/copy-mode arc. The terminal had no
configuration surface at all: the command hardcoded $SHELL, scrollback
was a per-open argument only, and the escape chord was a literal in
Rust. No protocol change.
Profiles are a raw Lua table, pmacs.terminal.profiles, not a registry
setting: ConfigValue is four scalars with no table kind, so profiles
join pmacs.lsp.config and pmacs.pair.sets until table-valued settings
exist. The registry gains three scalars whose defaults reproduce the
previous behavior exactly.
Field resolution is explicit open argument, then profile field, then
scalar setting, then $SHELL. env MERGES, with explicit entries
overriding the profile's, because first-wins there would silently drop
half a user's environment. An explicitly named profile that does not
exist is an error even when terminal.default-profile is valid, so a typo
cannot silently fall back.
The two open-time settings resolve through the GLOBAL chain, because
they are read before the identity buffer exists and no caller could have
pinned a local override on a buffer that does not yet exist. Only
terminal.escape-key resolves per buffer, which makes a per-terminal
escape a supported feature.
The escape key is parsed at most once per (terminal, config epoch), and
the cache lives on TerminalSession so its lifetime is the terminal's,
with no purge hook to forget. The epoch alone is not a sufficient key:
it does not advance when focus moves between two terminals with
different buffer-local values, so an epoch-only cache serves one
terminal's chord to the other. An unparseable value falls back to C-c
and reports once per terminal per effective invalid value through the
status line, because a terminal with no escape chord cannot be escaped
to fix the setting that broke it.
Repeating the escape now sends THAT chord to the child through the
ordinary key encoder, rather than a hardcoded ETX. With an escape of
C-x, the previous code sent Ctrl-C and made literal Ctrl-X unreachable.
C-c t opens a terminal. COHERENCE Priority 1 names a terminal
keybinding, and section 2 step 8 grades the terminal works-but-
undiscoverable; C-c is already a live global prefix, so this is a new
leaf rather than a shadow. It is unreachable from inside a terminal,
where C-c is the escape.
Acceptance is tests/terminal_config_acceptance.rs, deliberately NOT
crdt-gated so CI actually runs it. Four bites, each against a different
plausible wrong implementation: a hardcoded ETX fails acc6/9; an
epoch-only cache key fails acc7; a single last-entry cache fails acc8's
parse count; removing the invalid-value fallback fails acc10.
Two test-instrument notes worth keeping. cat -v is the echo probe
because the screen rejects C0 controls before they reach cells, so a raw
echoed Ctrl-X would be invisible. And the probe counts occurrences
rather than testing presence, because a single-character probe collides
with the child's own banner text.
Three P1 lifecycle defects and two P2s. The focused suite was 20/20 with
every one of them live, which is the part worth keeping.
**1. The crashed primary respawned forever underneath the fallback.**
Round 2 skipped the retire call for terminal servers to avoid corrupting
them — but the crash had already armed `next_restart_at`, and
`maybe_restart` fires on every elapsed backoff with no attempt ceiling.
The broken command kept respawning under the live fallback.
The right call depends on the state, and each is wrong for the other:
`forget` REQUIRES a terminal state and removes the client outright,
which also drops the restart timer; `stop` is for a live one and
corrupts a terminal one (its not-initialized branch parks it in
`ShuttingDown` forever). `retire_server` now dispatches on state.
**2. Re-attachment targeted whatever buffer was active when the
asynchronous verdict landed.** `_attach_buffer` is an active-buffer-only
seam, and "some attachment now names a different server" is satisfied by
an unrelated Rust buffer — clearing the retry and leaving the Lean buffer
stale forever. The initiating buffer is now captured and the retry waits
for it.
**3. A failing fallback retried every tick forever, silently**,
contradicting acceptance 27's promise that a second failure surfaces.
"Waiting for the old server to go" and "attempting the replacement" are
now separate: once the old one is terminal or gone, the replacement is
attempted EXACTLY once, and a spawn failure is reported.
**4. The Lake version parser was being applied to arbitrary wrappers.**
`version_below_3_1` encodes lake's output contract; a working
`my-lean-wrapper` reporting "wrapper 1.0" would have been replaced
despite its server initializing fine. The version probe is now gated on
the command's basename being `lake`. The FAILURE latch stays
command-agnostic — that one keys on the server actually not starting,
which is true of any command.
**5. An unconfigured Lean server was reported as a failure** and latched,
poisoning the session so a later configuration could never take effect.
Absent config or command now means disabled; only a configured command
that produced no attachment is a failure.
**6. The ledger recorded pre-fix counts** after the fixes were pushed.
Now 25/25 and 3,214. That is the #161 fmt-blocker error in a slower
form: verification must describe the pushed tree.
Sign-offs requested in review: `M.fallback` is now `M._fallback`, an
underscored test seam, and its idempotence check compares args as well as
command — the same command with different arguments is not "already
applied". Dropping the `command ~= "lake"` guard stands for the failure
latch only.
Five regression tests added, and **three of them were too weak on first
write; only bite-testing found it**:
* asserting "no live non-fallback server" misses a respawn loop,
because a respawning server sits in `crashed` most of the time —
`attempt` is the observable that counts respawns;
* returning to a buffer with `find_or_open` re-fires
`buffer.after-load`, which repairs the attachment regardless of the
code under test — `switch_buffer` is the honest return;
* a MISSING command fails synchronously inside `after-load` where the
rebuild happens inline, so the async race cannot occur — only the
probe path exercises it.
Each of the five now fails against the exact round-2 mutation it targets.
Round 1 review, four P1s. All real; the first two mean the fallback did
not work at all.
**1. The latch swapped the config but never spawned or re-attached.**
Nothing re-fires an attach on a config change and `attach_buffer`
early-returns for a live attachment, so the buffer stayed bound to the
server that had just been stopped. The user got a config edit and no
language server. `fire_latch` now rebuilds through a new
`pmacs.lsp._attach_buffer` export.
Two mechanics had to be right for that rebuild to happen at all:
* It is **retried on the tick**, because `pmacs.lsp.stop` leaves the
state `shutting-down`, which `server_is_live` counts as LIVE — an
inline re-attach early-returns the stale record and the swap is a
silent no-op.
* The latch **does not stop an already-terminal server**, and this is
a substrate bug worked around rather than a style choice.
`LspManager::stop` on a `Crashed` client takes its not-initialized
branch, terminates the dead process, and sets `ShuttingDown { ..
None }` on the premise that "the next exit observation cleans up" —
but the exit already happened, which is what made it `Crashed`. No
further event arrives, so the client is stuck in `ShuttingDown`
forever: `server_is_live` reads it as live so `attach_buffer` never
rebuilds, and `forget` refuses it for not being terminal. Stopping a
dead server is what makes it un-replaceable. Named in framing §6; the
fix belongs in `stop` and changes behavior for every language.
**2. A missing `lake` bypassed probe and latch entirely** — the single
most likely real failure. `ensure_server` swallows a synchronous ENOENT
and returns nil, so there was no attachment, and the hook keyed on
`active_attachment()` returned before arming anything. The hook now keys
on the buffer's LANGUAGE and treats a Lean buffer with no attachment as
the failure itself.
**3. `waitForDiagnostics` omitted `version`.** Lean's
`WaitForDiagnosticsParams` is `{ uri, version }` (v4.9.0,
`src/Lean/Data/Lsp/Extra.lean`); the request is how a client says which
revision it wants. It looked correct only because the fake server echoes
any payload — so the fake server now validates and returns InvalidParams
without it.
**4. The ledger stated the dangerous stacking order** in one sentence
and the correct rule in the next. Fixed to say BEFORE. A safety rule
written twice with opposite senses is worse than not written.
Also (P2): the probe/latch suite now drives the production path —
`buffer.after-load` -> ticks -> probe drain -> latch -> re-attach — with
real executable stubs, and asserts the originally opened buffer ends up
on a LIVE server. Round 1's acceptance 36 asserted every server was
terminal, i.e. pinned the ABSENCE of the fallback it claimed to test.
`M.fallback` is a table so the suite can point it at a working stand-in;
the probe now spawns `cfg.command --version` rather than a hardcoded
`lake`, which is also more correct for a user who configured a wrapper.
`swap_to_fallback`'s `command ~= "lake"` guard is gone: the latch fires
only when the configured server actually failed, one visible fallback
beats no server, and `probe.latched` is what keeps it to exactly one.
Three new bites, all against the committed tree: no re-attach after the
swap -> three latch tests fail; hook keyed on the attachment -> the
missing-`lake` case fails; `waitForDiagnostics` without `version` ->
acc37 fails with the server's InvalidParams.
Framing Q#LN7, Q#LN8, Q#LN16; acceptance 22–28, 24a/24b, 35, 36, 36a, 37.
Stacked on Stage 3a (#167), whose notification/response seams and
`pmacs.fs.canonicalize` this consumes. No protocol change; the only Rust
outside the test helper is one `include_str!` line.
**The Lake-aware root (Q#LN8).** `pmacs.project.detect` cannot express
this rule — it is innermost-wins by construction, and a Lake package's
`lean-toolchain` sits at the outermost level, so a file under
`<pkg>/.lake/packages/dep/` belongs to `<pkg>`'s server rather than
`dep`'s. The resolver walks up collecting markers and returns the
outermost, stopping at `pmacs.project.search_boundary()` so a stray
marker above a fixture cannot leak in.
Two things about the marker test are easy to get wrong in opposite
directions, and both are pinned. `io.open` **succeeds on a directory**,
so a truthiness check accepts a `lean-toolchain` directory; but
requiring a non-nil read rejects an **empty** `lean-toolchain`, which is
a legitimate marker — `locate-dominating-file` semantics are existence,
not content. The discriminator is `read`'s second return: decline only
on a non-nil error. Acceptance 24a and 24b each fail against the
implementation that satisfies only the other; both bites are recorded.
The root is canonicalized once up front, because a configured root
reaches `file_uri_for` verbatim and that URI is the affinity key (#161).
Canonicalizing the starting directory suffices — every ancestor of a
canonical path is canonical, since the walk only strips components.
**`lake serve` with a lazy probe and a one-shot latch (Q#LN7).** Nothing
runs at init: `pmacs.lsp.config` is declarative, and spawning a process
at startup for every user, Lean-using or not, is the cost rev 1 refused.
Both the probe and the server spawn are gated on a real Lean attachment.
The probe cannot gate the first attach — there is no blocking process
run, so its verdict arrives after `ensure_server` has already decided.
Hence the optimistic spawn, with the probe and latch correcting it. A
non-zero probe exit is deliberately NOT a trigger: §2.9's elan-shim case
makes `lake --version` fail on machines where `lake serve` still works,
and the server-failure latch covers that better. The probe answers only
the question failure detection would answer slowly — an old-but-working
lake that starts a useless server.
The latch stops the failing server **before** spawning the fallback, and
that ordering is load-bearing rather than defensive: the spec default is
`OnCrash`, the termination handler never consults the exit code, and
`maybe_restart` has no attempt ceiling, so a broken `lake` respawns
forever underneath the latch. `pmacs.lsp.stop` sets `restart = Never`,
which is what disarms it. Bitten: removing the stop fails acceptance 36.
The swap rewrites `command` and `args` only, so a user's `env`,
`settings`, `init_options` and `root` survive — a wholesale table
replacement would discard their `init.lua` at the moment they are least
likely to notice.
**`waitForDiagnostics` (Q#LN16)** resolves through Stage 3a's response
seam, with `M-x lean.wait-for-diagnostics` on top. `$/lean/fileProgress`
subscribes on the notification seam and is pinned end-to-end through a
new `leanprogress` mode on the fake server rather than by calling the
handler directly — the wiring is the only part that can break.
**Attribution (COHERENCE §9/§1.2).** The probe spawns as
`lean:lake-version-probe`, so a user wondering why their editor touched
`lake` finds an owner in `pmacs.process.list`. The latch reports through
`pmacs.editor.set_status` — the channel that exists — and acceptance 36a
observes that channel, so a report made only through the undefined
`pmacs.error` would fail it.
**Stage 1's acceptance 12 is updated, half superseded.** It asserted
`pmacs.lsp.config.lean4 == nil` to guard against a Stage-3 front-run;
Stage 3b is that stage, so keeping it would pin the opposite of the
intended behavior. The half that survives is the one about restraint,
and it matters more now: constructing an editor spawns nothing even
though the config exists and names `lake`, and opening a Lean buffer
with no server configured spawns nothing either. That is what holds
Q#LN7's "not at init" promise.
Bites recorded, all against the committed tree: bare `io.open` -> 24a
fails, 24b passes; require-non-nil-read -> 24b fails, 24a passes; no
canonicalization -> the symlink case spawns two servers; no stop before
fallback -> acceptance 36 fails.
CI round 1: both macOS jobs failed on the acceptance case added last
commit. APFS enforces valid UTF-8 in filenames, so `std::fs::write` with
a 0xFF byte in the name fails with EILSEQ ("Illegal byte sequence")
before `pmacs.fs.canonicalize` is ever called. The fixture cannot be
built there.
That is a filesystem refusing to represent the case, not a behavioral
difference: the subject — `to_str()` returning None for a non-UTF-8
resolution — is platform-independent Rust, and the Linux run pins it.
`#[cfg(unix)]` was the wrong granularity; review had asked for unix
gating on the symlink tests and I applied the same gate here without
checking whether the filesystem, rather than the API, was the
constraint.
Gated `#[cfg(target_os = "linux")]` with the reason in place, rather
than skipped at runtime, so a future failure here is a real failure and
not a silent no-op.
Ledger records both CI-round facts: this one, and that
`composition_overhead_under_ten_percent` is load-sensitive under a
parallel workspace sweep (it reported -4.6% realistic overhead in the
same run that tripped its 10% budget at 18.8%, which is noise, not work).
Six findings from review, one of them a real defect.
**`canonicalize` could emit a path that exists nowhere.**
`p.display().to_string()` substitutes U+FFFD for non-UTF-8 bytes, so a
resolution landing on such a path returned a plausible-looking string
that does not exist on disk — worse than nil, because this value becomes
a server-affinity key through `file_uri_for` and would silently fail to
round-trip, while the doc promised nil for anything unresolvable. Now
`.and_then(|p| p.to_str().map(str::to_owned))`: unrepresentable is a
decline, matching how the fs layer already treats non-UTF-8 symlink
targets.
Pinned by a new acceptance case that reaches a non-UTF-8 target through
an **ASCII** symlink, so the input is representable and only the
resolved output is not — the case a UTF-8 check on the argument would
miss. Bitten: restoring `display()` fails it.
The other five:
- `on_response`'s doc comment now warns that registering against a
server with no attached buffer is fire-on-death, not fire-on-reply,
because the drain visits only attached sids. It looks exactly like a
hung request while debugging, and 3b is the first caller likely to
hit it.
- `deliver_response`'s comment still carried the pre-correction
rationale ("removed BEFORE invocation ... must not be re-entered") —
the claim the bite disproved. It now says what is true: removal is
unconditional, before-vs-after is unobservable without a re-entrant
drain, and the reachable bug is gating removal on a clean return.
- Dropped `server_attempt`'s unused second return.
- Deleted a vacuous assertion in the no-attachment test (counting `_G`
entries to assert "lua globals are readable") — scaffolding that
pinned nothing, the exact shape the project's own lesson flags.
- `#[cfg(unix)]` on the three symlink-dependent tests.
Gates re-run in full. The sweep's first pass tripped
`composition_overhead_under_ten_percent` at 18.8% against a 10% budget;
it passes 3/3 in isolation here, passes in isolation on main, and the
same run reported the realistic-frame overhead as **-4.6%** — a negative
figure is measurement noise, not added work. Nothing in this diff is on
the render path. Rerun of the full sweep: 3,189 across 93 suites, zero
failures.
Main moved again while this lane was gating: the GPU terminal-input fix
merged as #166. One conflict, in COHERENCE.md's journey table, resolved
as the union -- this lane owns step 7's file half, #166 owns step 8's
GPU-terminal addendum.
Multi-root LSP affinity merged as #161 (`main` @ `46a1b8f`) while this
lane was in review, which made the PR conflict -- and a conflicting PR
has no merge ref, so GitHub silently stopped running CI on it after the
first push. Integrating rather than rebasing, per the #135/#137
precedent: the review anchors stay addressable and every gate is rerun
against the merged tree.
One conflict, in COHERENCE.md's in-flight list, resolved as the union of
both truths -- and #161 is now merged, which its own text still called a
PR.
The overlap to watch is `src/lua_bindings/mod.rs`: #161 widened the
`lsp.list()` row builder while this lane added `pmacs.path` and the
read_dir listing conversion. The merge was textually clean, which the
folding arc's lesson says is not the same as compiling, so the full gate
suite reruns from here.
Two corrections found by bite-testing the suite rather than by reading
it.
**Acceptance 32 was mis-named.** It claimed to pin "the one-shot is
removed BEFORE invocation". Biting that — moving the removal after the
`pcall` — still passes, because `pcall` catches the raise either way and
the removal runs regardless. The before/after ordering is unobservable
unless a handler re-enters the drain, and nothing does. What the test
actually pins is that removal is **unconditional**: the bite that gates
it on `if ok then` fails 2 != 1, because the surviving registration is
invoked a second time by the purge. Renamed and re-commented to say so.
The implementation still removes before invoking, which is the right
defensive order; it is simply not what the assertion proves.
**The purge's generation check is defensive and untested**, now labelled
in place instead of reading as covered. Reaching it needs a crash and
its restart to both land in a gap with no `_async.tick`; the backoff is
500ms, so any tick in that window sees `crashed` and the
absent-or-terminal test fires first. Every attempt to stage it
deterministically exercised the `crashed` path instead. It stays as
insurance for a stalled editor, and says that about itself.
Bites recorded, all against the committed tree:
- removal gated on a clean return -> acc32 fails (2 != 1).
- purge driven by a `crashed`/`stopped` event seen in the drain, the
design the framing originally implied -> the no-attachment case fails
("never called"), while the attached case still passes. That is the
discrimination acceptance 34's second half exists for.
- a resolver without `pmacs.fs.canonicalize` -> two servers, pinned as
34b's own falsification.
Arc 8 Stage 3a (framing Q#LN9, Q#LN20). No Lean content: this changes
the event drain every LSP language runs through, and is split from the
Lean server work for the reason Stage 2 was.
**The seams.** `handle_server_requests` handled five `request` methods
and `initialized`, dropping every `notification` and `response` on the
floor. Dropping responses made `pmacs.lsp.send_request` a write-only API
from Lua — the reply was drained and discarded, so nothing outside
Rust's typed stores could consume one. Two new arms route to
`pmacs.lsp.on_notification(method, fn)` (persistent, method-keyed) and
`pmacs.lsp.on_response(sid, request_id, fn)` (one-shot). Both extend the
existing loop rather than opening a second `events_take` caller, which
would steal events from it.
A one-shot is removed **before** invocation, so a raising handler cannot
be re-entered. Every subscriber is `pcall`ed and a raise reports through
`pmacs.editor.set_status` per COHERENCE §1.2 — not `pmacs.error`, which
is defined nowhere in production. The notification list's length is
captured before the walk so a subscriber registering another cannot
extend the list being iterated.
**The purge is driven off `pmacs.lsp.list()`, not off a death event.**
The framing said acceptance 34's second edge was a killed buffer. That
was wrong, and scouting the implementation is what caught it: pmacs
fires exactly five hooks (`buffer.after-edit`, `buffer.after-load`,
`buffer.after-switch`, `frontend.detached`, `process.after-tick`) and
there is no buffer-kill hook at all, so `lsp.lua` never tears an
attachment down and the drain keeps reaching that server. No leak there.
The real leak is a different path with the same root cause. The drain
builds its sid list from `attachments`, and `attach_buffer` drops a sid
from that table the moment `server_is_live` reports false — rebuilding
against a fresh server. So the `crashed` / `stopped` event that should
trigger the purge is precisely the one most likely to go undrained. A
purge wired to that event leaks exactly when it matters.
`pmacs.lsp.list()` enumerates the manager directly and is unaffected by
attachment bookkeeping, so the purge polls it after each drain: a sid
that is absent, terminal, or running a **new generation** settles its
pending one-shots with an error. The generation check uses the `attempt`
field, because a crash-then-restart reuses the sid — without it a
one-shot would sit waiting on a reply the dead generation owed.
**`pmacs.fs.canonicalize`** (Q#LN20) is the one synchronous function on
`pmacs.fs`, and synchronous is the point: its consumer is a
function-valued `config.root` called from `ensure_server` <-
`attach_buffer` <- `buffer.after-load`, where there is no coroutine and
`pmacs.fs.stat`'s awaitable handle is unusable. It is installed from
`install_async` rather than `install_project` purely for load order —
`make_workspace` runs after `fs.lua` is evaluated, so a canonicalizer
placed there reads nil.
Acceptance: `tests/lsp_dispatch_seams_acceptance.rs`, 14 tests, driven
against `pmacs_fake_lsp` through rust so nothing needs a toolchain.
Dispatch integrity is exercised at real co-occurrence — the fake server
writes `workspace/applyEdit` and the `executeCommand` reply back to
back, so both land in one `events_take` batch. 34b asserts affinity
survives a symlinked open and is paired with its own falsification: the
same resolver minus the canonicalize call spawns two servers, so the
positive case cannot be vacuous.
The dispatcher loop applied BOTH terminal-layout syncs to EVERY attached
frontend. A semantic session satisfies both conditions, because it has a
term_sizes entry from AttachRequest and a semantic terminal declaration,
so its PTY was resized twice on every tick forever: the grid arm
installed the TUI placement size, the semantic arm installed the declared
content rectangle, and each arm's own idempotence guard only ever saw the
size the other had just written. The child took a SIGWINCH storm at tick
cadence and the screen reflowed continuously, which is what made typing
into a GPU terminal impossible while output kept flowing.
The grid arm is also the only per-tick controller-liveness release a
semantic frontend gets, so simply skipping it for those frontends trades
one defect for another: a GPU window that switches away from its terminal
would hold the controller forever, and no peer could resize that PTY
again. The semantic arm cannot take over that job, because the
buffer-follow snapshot clears the viewport declaration that would drive
it.
sync_terminal_layout is therefore split into a frontend-kind-neutral half
(panel reconciliation plus controller liveness, which read only views,
windows and the controller) and a grid-only geometry half (TUI placement
plus the resize). The dispatcher runs the neutral half for every attached
frontend once per tick, then exactly one geometry arm per frontend kind.
sync_terminal_layout survives as the composition of both halves, so the
in-process editor loop and LOCAL are unchanged.
The loop body is extracted into sync_terminal_layouts_for_tick, which
makes the grid/semantic exclusivity structural rather than two adjacent
ifs, and lets the tests drive the real loop body instead of a
re-implementation.
The release that fires when a window has no placement stays in the grid
half deliberately: a semantic frontend has no window_placements entry at
all, so moving it into the neutral half would release a GPU session's
controller on every tick.
Bite-verified against two pre-images, because one is not enough here --
the naive guard fixes the storm and introduces the controller leak, so a
single revert would score the fix complete when it is not:
pin main naive guard split
settle (acc 2+3) FAIL pass pass
controller release (acc 6) pass FAIL pass
grid still resizes (acc 5) pass pass pass
Real-path acceptance: a quiet child that counts SIGWINCH reports 144
frames in 4 s and WINCH 1..12 on screen against the pre-fix tree, versus
a settled screen with the fix. Acceptance 4 (input reaches the child and
returns) is a keep-working pin and passes on both sides -- key transport
was never the defect.
No protocol change; stays v20.
F1 (real, small-window misbehavior). `dired.revert`'s re-seat runs after
the read settles, and `pmacs.editor.move_to_line` is AMBIENT -- it moves
whatever window is active. A user who switched buffers (or hit `q`)
while the re-read was in flight had an unrelated buffer's cursor moved
to a line index that only means something in the dired listing. The
paint was already safe because it names its buffer; the seat now runs
only while dired is still the active buffer, and `seat_cursor`'s doc
says which callers are unconditionally in the right place and why.
Pinned by a test that starts the revert, switches to a six-line file
before the pump, and asserts that buffer's cursor never moved -- and
that the dired buffer still reverts when it IS active.
F2 (a trap set for Stage 3). `fmt_size` used `%10d`, so a size past ten
digits -- 10 GB and up, ordinary for VM images and core dumps -- widened
the field and shifted mtime and name right on that line alone. Cosmetic
today, but `_layout` is exported as a contract and Stage 3's
column-classifying intercept is planned against it. It now takes
`fmt_mtime`'s discipline: exact bytes while they fit, else a
fixed-width magnitude, so precision yields to the invariant rather than
the other way round. This is not the deferred human-readable column --
the exact count still shows right up to where it cannot. Pinned with a
sparse 12 GB fixture that skips if the filesystem refuses it.
F3 (honesty and a doubled read). The symlink arm claimed the probe cost
"one syscall"; it was a full `read_dir` -- opendir plus one lstat per
child -- and on success `open_directory` immediately read the same
directory again. Since `open_directory` reads before touching editor
state and raises having changed nothing (acceptance 15's invariant), its
failure IS the "not a directory" answer: the probe is gone, one read
remains, and the comment says what it actually does. New test pins both
arms -- a symlink to a directory descends under the path the user walked
(canonicalization is lexical, so the link is not resolved), and a
symlink to a file opens with the target's contents.
F4 (deliberate failure mode). A tolerant listing recorded readdir
iterator errors without bound, and `std::fs::ReadDir` need not terminate
after yielding one. Cancellation is NOT an adequate backstop here --
which is the reason for a constant rather than a comment saying it is: a
dired listing carries no supersede key, so nothing cancels it. A
directory whose iterator produces nothing but errors now fails with the
last error the way an unopenable directory does, after
READDIR_MAX_CONSECUTIVE_ENTRY_ERRORS; the counter resets on any entry
that materializes. Documented as untested and why: faking a failing
iterator needs the walk generic over it, a refactor with no other
consumer.
Smaller notes, all taken: READ_ONLY_LIMIT renamed NAME_VARIANT_LIMIT (it
caps `<2>`..`<99>`, nothing read-only); `fmt_perms`' omission of
setuid/setgid/sticky documented as a decision tied to the M8.3 fixture's
nine-bit parser; `format_outcome` binds the slice in the pattern instead
of re-traversing; and `pmacs.path.canonicalize`'s `to_string_lossy` is
noted as inside the existing non-UTF-8-path deferral rather than an
exception to it.
Process note, learned the hard way twice now: the round-1 dired.lua
fixes were briefly wiped because a mutation-bite helper restores with
`git checkout --`, which reverts to HEAD -- so a fix must be committed
BEFORE it is bitten, not after.
`describe_key_identifies_every_default_binding` iterated every binding
in the stack and asserted `pmacs.describe.key` resolves it context-free.
That held only because no builtin had ever bound a mode-scoped key:
dired is #129's first non-detection consumer, so its `n` / `p` / `g`
correctly resolved to nothing and the test went red on the feature
rather than on a defect.
It now sets the effective context per binding -- the mode for a
mode-scoped default, and explicitly NO mode for a global one, because a
leaked mode legitimately shadows a global chord of the same name
(dired's `RET` shadows `edit.newline-and-indent`, which is the point of
the mode) and would make the assertion compare the wrong pair. A floor
assertion keeps the new arm from going vacuous if the last mode-scoped
default is ever removed.
Also corrects a doc comment rather than leaving it to be believed:
acceptance 3c does not pin the descent ROUTING. Dired holds focus in its
own panel, so a raw `switch_buffer` lands in the same window and the
mutation is vacuous against that test; dedication is what distinguishes
the two paths, so the discriminating pin is the dedicated-panel test
next to it. Verified by mutation, not assumed.
Dired is the file surface, not a rider on one: before Stage 0 (#162)
pmacs had no way to open a file by path, and browsing is the half a
user reaches for when they do not already know the path. Stage 1 ships
the view.
builtin/runtime/dired.lua: one buffer per directory named by the
canonical path (Q#DR2) with an ownership check before any paint (F7);
read-only intercept plus round-trip input (Q#DR3); a `dired` major mode
carrying mode-scoped keys (Q#DR8) -- RET/f visit, ^ parent, n/p, g
revert, q quit, s sort; cursor re-seated by basename across every
wholesale repaint (Q#DR9); file visits through
`pmacs.window.display_file` and directory descent through dired's own
window (Q#DR10); `C-x d` / `C-x C-j`; and `dired.kill-when-opening`
through the config registry.
Two Rust changes, both narrow:
* `read_dir` grows per-entry tolerance behind an opt (Q#DR6). Five
per-entry conditions used to fail the entire listing, so a plain
refresh of a busy directory could just fail; the module doc's claim
that a tolerant wrapper was "the package's job" was false, because
the primitive hands Lua one structured error and no partial vec.
Per-entry readdir/lstat/readlink failures and non-UTF-8 symlink
targets now land in an `errors` channel; parent-level failures and
non-UTF-8 *names* stay fatal. The tolerance travels in the settled
payload, so the Lua boundary keeps the bare-array shape the frozen
M8.2 fixture consumes and never has to look the job back up. The read
ops' opts parsing now rejects unknown keys, so a typo'd `tolerant`
cannot silently degrade to the fatal contract.
* `normalize_buffer_path` is exposed as `pmacs.path.canonicalize`
rather than mirrored in Lua. Q#DR2 named exposure the preferred end
state; it needs no borrow plumbing, so dired's name-dedup and
`display_file`'s `find_buffer_for_path` dedup cannot fork, and the
mirror's Stage 2 removal is not owed.
tests/dired_acceptance.rs covers framing items 1-16 (22 tests), driven
through real key dispatch. Item 17 is the m8_1/m8_2/m8_3 gate.
One framing claim is corrected by the substrate: R2-3 expected a
dedicated dired panel to carry its dedication across a descent, but
`display_buffer` never replaces the buffer in a slot dedicated to
another one -- it discards every side-specific parameter and falls back
to the document window (Q#BP3 2.iii). Dired does not try to unpin the
user's panel; both arms are pinned.
COHERENCE.md §1.2 makes "a `pcall` around background wiring must log
attributed failure, never discard it" a standing rule, and names
`ensure_server`'s swallowed spawn failure as its canonical case — the
exact function this branch modifies. Round 1 deferred the resolver's
silent `pcall` as a Stage 3 concern. Under that rule it is not a
deferral, it is a fresh instance of the named anti-pattern added by a PR
touching the cited function, made worse by the memo: a raised error is
buried permanently for that directory and never observed again.
A resolver that raises, or returns a non-string non-nil, now leaves an
attributed trace naming the language and the directory. Returning nil
remains the documented decline and stays silent — pinned, so "report
failures" cannot be satisfied by reporting every resolution.
The report goes through `pmacs.editor.set_status`, NOT `pmacs.error`,
and that choice is the finding:
**`pmacs.error` does not exist.** Fifteen call sites across `async.lua`
(5), `syntax.lua` (4), `lsp.lua`, `mcp.lua`, `fs.lua`, `editops.lua`,
`autosave.lua`, and `commands/default.lua` report background failures
through it, each guarded `if pmacs.error then ...`. It is defined
nowhere in production; the only assignment in the tree is a test stub at
`src/editor.rs:9881`, and `type(pmacs.error)` is nil in a fresh
`EditorState` (probed, not inferred). `pmacs.errors` (plural) in
compile.lua is an unrelated namespace. So all fifteen reports are dead,
and the guard makes the silence look deliberate — which is why nobody
noticed. Writing the test is what caught it: the first version of this
fix used `pmacs.error` and its pin failed against a working
implementation.
Both bites recorded: dropping the report entirely fails the pin, and so
does reporting ONLY through `pmacs.error` — the dead-channel variant
this nearly shipped.
Not fixed here, deliberately: defining `pmacs.error`, the fifteen dead
sites, and surfacing the spawn failure itself. That last is Priority 1
work and a user-visible product behavior — what message, where, with
what guidance — so it needs its own framing rather than being smuggled
into an affinity PR.
Three of the five review findings land here; the other two are recorded
as named deferrals in the framing on the dired branch.
Finding 1: the command comment cited "acc4", a name from a draft scheme
that no test carries. It now names the real test, and the comment splits
the shadowing consequence into the two cases that actually exist -- a new
bare name that matches an entry (shadowed) versus one that matches
nothing (creates normally) -- each pointing at its test.
Finding 2: the everyday new-file flow had no test. Typing a bare name
that is not a subsequence of any entry is the path users hit first, and
the only route combining free text with a relative join; every existing
new-file test used a name containing a separator.
find_file_bare_new_name_creates_in_the_root covers it, asserting the
parent is the prompt's root so the join itself is pinned.
Finding 3: the failure arm was never exercised, and as the review noted,
deleting the pcall would have passed the whole suite. Accepting a
directory candidate reaches display_file, whose load fails because
File::open on a directory succeeds and the read returns EISDIR;
find_file_accepting_a_directory_reports_instead_of_raising pins that this
surfaces as the command's status message, leaves the active buffer alone,
and closes the prompt. Verified by manual revert: with the pcall replaced
by a direct call, that test and only that test fails. scripts/bite could
not isolate it, since the guard and its test have no separating commit.
Finding 4 is documented at the command rather than left implicit:
accepting on empty input opens the first-sorted candidate, because
fuzzy_score returns Some(0) for an empty needle and filter_and_sort
breaks the tie lexicographically, so dotfiles lead and a directory can
lead. M-x and switch-buffer share the mechanism, so it is inherited
rather than introduced, and it is listed in the framing beside the
accept-semantics change that would close it.
The blocker was process, not design. The test file was committed before
`cargo fmt` ran, so the reflow of five over-width assertions sat
uncommitted in the working tree while the branch as pushed failed the
first gate in CLAUDE.md. The "fmt clean" reported on the PR described
the worktree, not the branch. Gate results are only meaningful run
against the pushed tree, so this commit lands the formatting first and
the gates are re-run against it.
Two pins review asked for, each covering a branch the nine acceptance
tests left untested:
- A **string** `config.root` as an affinity key. acc17 covers only the
function form, so `return configured, "config"` had no test. The bite
puts both files in their own marked project: drop the config arm and
they key on their own detected roots and spawn two servers, so one
server on the configured root is only reachable if the override wins.
- `root = false` reads as unset. Defended by a truthiness check rather
than `~= nil`, previously by comment alone. Under `~= nil` the config
arm returns `false, "config"` and `file_uri_for(false)` returns nil, so
the file lands on a rootless server instead of its detected project.
Each was falsified against exactly the mutation it targets and neither
against the other.
Also documents an asymmetry review caught: `project_root_for`'s
"detected" arm is canonicalized for free because `pmacs.project.detect`
canonicalizes before walking, but a **configured** root — string or
resolver return — is fed to `file_uri_for` exactly as written, and the
affinity key is that URI. On macOS a resolver returning `/var/…` and a
detected `/private/var/…` are therefore different keys for one
directory, silently yielding two servers for one project. There is no
Lua-side canonicalizer to normalize it, and Stage 3's Lean resolver is
the first real consumer, so the obligation is stated in the
`config.root` doc comment where that resolver's author will read it.
Dired arc Stage 0 (docs/dired-framing.md section 10, Q#DR11). Until now
pmacs had no discoverable way to open a file by path: no find-file
command and no C-x C-f binding, so a file entered a session only from
the CLI, an LSP jump, a project-search visit, or C-x C-r, whose prompt
does pass free text through but completes only over the recent list.
The command prompts with completion rooted at the active buffer's
directory, or the process cwd when the buffer has no backing path, and
opens the result through pmacs.window.display_file. A path that does not
exist yet creates a buffer bound to it with the "[new file]" status,
which is Emacs parity and comes from resolve_target_buffer rather than
anything added here. Nothing is written to disk until the user saves.
Two substrate facts shape the design and are documented at the command
rather than left to be rediscovered.
Completion is flat: the files source lists one directory and yields bare
basenames, and a custom function source could not do better, because
sources are called with no arguments and run synchronously outside any
coroutine, so a callback can neither see the input to re-root on nor
await a directory listing. Hierarchical completion is a named Rust
change in the framing.
A selected candidate shadows typed text: recompute_candidates selects
index 0 whenever the candidate list is non-empty, and
resolve_accepted_value returns the candidate over the typed contents. So
typed text reaches the accept handler exactly when the input filters
every candidate away, which for basename candidates under a subsequence
filter means when it contains a separator. That makes the deeper-path
case work verbatim and leaves one hole: a new bare name that is a
subsequence of an existing entry opens the existing file. The acceptance
pins that as a decision rather than an accident; closing it needs a Rust
change to accept semantics that Stage 0 deliberately does not make.
A leading tilde is expanded before the path reaches the core, because
get_or_load_buffer normalizes the path it stores but loads from the raw
one -- so an unexpanded tilde path deduplicates against an already-open
buffer yet fails to load a file that is not open yet.
The prompt field starts empty and names its root in the prompt string
instead: any prefill would contain a separator and silently disable
completion.
Acceptance is dispatch-driven throughout -- a real C-x C-f, real typing,
a real RET -- so a dead binding cannot pass vacuously and the Lua
lifecycle accept(), which bypasses the path interactive input takes, is
not used.
`ensure_server` reused any live server whose `language_id` matched,
regardless of project root — its own comment documented this as a known
post-v0.1 limitation. For project-model-strict servers that is a
correctness failure, not a rough edge: `lake serve` is bound to one Lake
package, rust-analyzer and gopls to one workspace, so the second project
a user opens gets a server that cannot resolve its imports.
Server affinity is now keyed on the project root, with one rule that
keeps the change from regressing every other language:
The affinity key is the root only when a root was actually FOUND.
`project_root_for` never returns nil for a file that has a path — its
last resort is the file's own directory — so a naive `(language_id,
root)` key would give every directory of loose scratch files its own
server, for every language: two stray .py files in different directories
would spawn two pyrights where today they share one. It now returns
`root, source` with source one of "config" / "detected" / "fallback",
and only the first two become an affinity key.
Matching is on the spawned spec's `root_uri`, nil matching nil, so the
fallback spawn passes `root_uri = nil` for the key and the stored spec to
agree. `cwd` still carries the directory, and `build_initialize`
(src/lsp.rs) derives the identical `rootUri` from `cwd` when the field is
None — using a percent-encoder with the same allowed set as Lua's
`file_uri_for`. The initialize payload for that case is therefore
byte-identical to before; only what the reuse loop matches on changes.
`build_initialize` is the only reader of `spec.root_uri` in the tree.
Two consequences, both deliberate and both asserted rather than
discovered:
- A server hand-spawned from init.lua with only `cwd` set also reads
back nil, so a root-bearing attach will not adopt it. We cannot know
which root it was meant to serve, and guessing wrongly routes a
project's files to the wrong server.
- Opening files across N project roots spawns N servers. rust-analyzer
has the same property and no editor caps it by default; `pmacs.lsp.stop`
is the manual escape and an LRU reaping policy stays deferred.
`config[language].root` may now be a `function(path) -> string|nil` as
well as a string, for languages whose root rule the shared marker walk
cannot express — an innermost-wins walk cannot find an *outermost*
marker. A resolver returning nil declines and falls through to the marker
walk. Results are memoized per directory because hoisting the root
computation above the reuse loop puts it on every attach rather than
every spawn; the memo is keyed weakly by the resolver function itself, so
replacing `config[lang].root` cannot serve a root the old one computed.
`pmacs.lsp.list()` rows gain `root_uri` and `cwd`. `root_uri` is the spec
field verbatim, deliberately not the URI the server was initialized with.
No protocol change. No Lean content: this is the shared affinity function
for every LSP language, so it ships as its own PR and is exercised
through rust, python, go and typescript against `pmacs_fake_lsp`.
tests/lsp_multi_root_acceptance.rs covers acceptance 13-21. Every fixture
sets `pmacs.project.set_search_boundary` at its own tempdir root:
without it the marker walk climbs to the filesystem root, and a stray
`.git` above the temp directory would turn the markerless cases into
detected ones — the assertions would still pass while testing nothing.
Refs docs/lean4-mode-framing.md Q#LN15, acceptance 13-21.
Review finding: acc12's server-list assertion could not fail for the
regression class it was written to catch. The shared `editor()` helper
runs `pmacs.lsp.config = {}` before any buffer opens, so
`#pmacs.lsp.list() == 0` holds for every language regardless of what
Stage 1 ships -- a Stage-3 front-run that added
`pmacs.lsp.config.lean4` in a builtin runtime file would have slipped
straight past it. The same vacuous-assertion shape as #155 R2.
acc12 now asserts the actual claim against a PRISTINE `EditorState`,
before any config wipe: no builtin runtime file defines
`pmacs.lsp.config.lean4`. A non-vacuity check pins that the same lookup
finds `pmacs.lsp.config.rust`, so this cannot pass merely because the
table is empty or absent.
Bite-verified: adding `pmacs.lsp.config.lean4 = ... { command = "lake",
args = { "serve" } }` to `builtin/runtime/lsp.lua` fails the test; the
stub was reverted.
The process-list half is kept and its comment now says why it survives
the wipe: a direct probe spawn from a future `lean.lua` shows up there
whatever `pmacs.lsp.config` contains.
Also fixes a stale column in a `highlight.rs` comment -- the Lua table
brace in `local t = {}` is at col 10, which is what the code already
used.

Completes Arc 8 Stage 1: the Lua-side tables that turn a recognized
grammar into a usable mode, plus the acceptance suite for all twelve
framing criteria.
comment.lua -- `lean4 = "--"` (Q#LN5). Line comments only; Lean's block
comment `/- -/` and docstring `/-- -/` belong to the comment arc's own
named deferral and this lane does not front-run it.
pair.lua -- `⟨⟩`, `⦃⦄`, `⟮⟯` alongside the ASCII brackets (Q#LN6). The
anonymous constructor is among the most-typed constructs in Lean;
omitting it would make the pair set feel broken. The other two ride along
because the Stage 4 input method can produce them, and a bracket the pair
set does not understand is worse than one it does. All three sit outside
the nine built-in pair chars, so per Q#AP1 their undo is
cross-peer-degraded -- the documented, pre-existing limitation of
user-extended pairs. No `''`: Lean uses the prime as an identifier suffix
(`h'`, `foo'`), the same reason Rust excludes it.
syntax.lua -- the `lean` -> `lean4` modeline alias (Q#LN2), so an Emacs
`-*- mode: lean -*-` or a Vim `ft=lean` line is not stranded by the entry
being named `lean4`.
syntax.rs -- the `lean` -> `lean4` injection alias (Q#LN17), so both
```lean and ```lean4 fences highlight. The Lean 3 spelling is mapped
forward deliberately: a ```lean fence is overwhelmingly Lean 4 in
practice.
highlight.rs -- `warning` moves from bold red to bold BRIGHT red. Writing
the test found the collision: `number` is plain `fg(1)`, so `sorry` and
the literal `42` beside it were the same colour, differing only in the
bold flag. `sorry` means "admitted, not proved" and is the one token in a
proof file a reader must never skim past, so it now gets the loudest
entry in the table and the test asserts the full style rather than the
colour.
Twelve criteria, seventeen tests. Notes on the ones that could have been
vacuous:
* acc4 uses a `.txt` fixture, not `.lean` -- on a `.lean` path the
extension alone yields `lean4` and the assertion would pass with the
alias table empty. acc4b removes the alias and pins that the raw name
survives, so acc4 cannot silently stop testing anything.
* acc11 goes through the real `_parse_now` injection path and asserts a
`lean4` CHILD LAYER appears. `pmacs.parse.injection_aliases` is a
documented write-only proxy, so an alias-table read would have proven
nothing about the parser; acc11b pins that a misspelled fence still
resolves to nothing.
* acc12 asserts through the process supervisor and the server list that
opening a Lean buffer spawns nothing. This is not decorative: the
machine this arc was scouted on has elan installed with no default
toolchain, where `lake --version` itself fails, and Stage 1 must be
unaffected by that.
Gates: fmt and strict workspace clippy clean; 1,826 default + 2,003 CRDT
library tests; lean4 Stage 1 9, comment toggle 14, auto-pair 45,
injection 4; M4 121; required GPU 152; isolated-config workspace sweep
3,150 across 90 suites; `git diff --check` clean.

PR #155 review round 2, self-review of the round-2 commit.
The round-2 change labelled "minor" — resolving both arms of
pmacs.window.buffer() through the acting frontend for uniformity — made
the NO-ARGUMENT arm fallible. `acting_frontend` follows the interactive
origin, which can name a frontend that has no registered view: a bare
`dispatch_key` from an unattached peer does exactly that. `selected_window`
then raises "acting frontend has no layout" instead of answering.
Nothing surfaced that error, because the runtime callers do not pcall it.
killring, syntax, autosave, pair, indent and comment all read
pmacs.window.buffer() on ordinary edits, so the raise silently dropped
the operation: kill_ring_acceptance went 30/30 to 25/5, with
frontend_detached_drops_per_frontend_state reporting only "B has kill
state". main is 30/30, and reverting this one file restored it.
The no-arg arm is back on ambient active_buffer_id() and now documents
why that is deliberate rather than an oversight: dispatch sets
active_frontend to the acting frontend before running a command, so the
two agree on every real path, while only the ambient resolver has the
fallback that makes it total. The explicit-window arm keeps its Q#BP11
layout validation, which is what the arc actually needed.
acc19c pins it through the real path — a buffer.after-edit subscriber
reading pmacs.window.buffer() during a viewless peer's dispatch_key —
rather than by calling the binding directly. Bite-verified:
scripts/bite bbe4152 src/lua_bindings/mod.rs --test
bottom_panel_stage1_acceptance -- acc19c goes red with the exact
"acting frontend has no layout" traceback.
The ledger also records two gating facts found on the way: the workspace
sweep must run with an isolated XDG_CONFIG_HOME, because the real user
init.lua installs a local package and the losing race leaks a status
message into painted-frame comparisons; and a latent pre-existing main
bug in the buffer CRDT undo path, which is not this branch's and whose
proptest seed is deliberately not committed here.

The round-2 peer press landed in the peer's CONTENT area, so it never
reached `arm_window_drag` — the exact path Finding 5 names — and the
case bit nothing. It now presses the peer's own mode-line row, where a
single global drag slot is overwritten (and, since that lone window owns
no boundary, cleared outright).

PR #155 review round 2.
Finding 1 (must fix): Q#BP7 item 1 — "growth reaching the live tail
re-arms follow (top -> None), only when no selection is active" — was
never implemented. `at_bottom` is the instantaneous geometric readout
`scroll_offset == 0`, which a still-anchored view satisfies whenever it
happens to be tall enough to reach the tail, so the round-1 assertion
could not see the gap: the next rows the child printed pushed the
anchored view back into history.
`rearm_follow_on_growth` now clears `top` when a viewport-size
declaration makes the view cover the tail and no selection is frozen,
and every size-declaring path (`snapshot_for_view`, `record_view_size`,
`view_status_for_size`) routes through one `declare_view_size` helper so
grid and semantic declarations cannot disagree. `scroll_view` and
`begin_selection` deliberately stay out: they write `top` themselves,
and `scroll_view` already owns the scroll-driven arm.
New acc32b is the pin the review asked for: scroll into history, grow
past the tail, then release a SECOND burst of child output through a
filesystem gate and assert the view moved with it.
Finding 2: the PTY fixtures emitted LF-only output, which staircases
rightward until every row clips to blanks past the viewport width — so
the round-1 anchor assertions compared "" with "" and could not fail.
Both fixtures now emit CRLF, and each anchor comparison is guarded by
`assert!(!top_before.is_empty())`.
Finding 3: acc33's contrast case asserted nothing, and the behavior it
claimed was false as coded. With the re-arm in place it is true and now
asserted: clearing the selection at the same geometry re-arms follow and
leaves the frozen anchor.
Finding 4: `start_run` gated the panel branch on `display == "panel" or
already_in_panel(..)`, so an explicit `display = "current"` lost to the
inference — and that value is the documented user-facing opt-out from
the Stage 3 default flip. Now gated on OMISSION. acc19b gains the
explicit-"current" case.
Finding 5: `window_drag` is a `HashMap<FrontendId, WindowDragState>`, so
a peer's mode-line press can no longer steal or clear another
frontend's in-flight gesture, and concurrent drags are legal. Cleared on
detach. acc30c gains the mode-line-press case.
Minor: `pmacs.window.buffer()` resolves both arms through the acting
frontend using the shared `lookup_window` / `selected_window` validators
rather than re-implementing them beside an ambient `active_buffer_id()`.

`TerminalViewStatus.scroll_offset` is the retained rows between the
VIEWPORT and the live tail, so it necessarily tracks viewport height: an
assertion that it survives a panel height change unchanged is either
vacuous or wrong, and it went red once under a loaded sweep for exactly
that reason. Q#BP7's invariant is that the ANCHOR is frozen, so acc32
and acc33 now compare the first visible row's text across the change,
and additionally pin the follow behavior that distinguishes them: a
shrink never re-arms follow, growth reaching the tail does, and growth
with a frozen selection does not.
Both also wait for the child's last line before sampling, so neither
races further output.
Also records the round in docs/active-work.md.

PR #155 review round 1.
Finding 1 (must fix): `try_split_active` had no production caller —
`pmacs.window.split_horizontal` / `split_vertical`, and therefore
`C-x 2` / `C-x 3`, still went through plain `split_active`. Splitting a
focused panel made the root wrapper's final child a split rather than
`Leaf(side)`, which both `Layout::compute`'s fixed pass and
`document_subtree` key on: the panel band reverted to 1:1 weight
division and an ordinary window ended up living inside it. Both bindings
now route through the guard, and acc26 asserts through the real Lua
path — a direct core call passes with the guard unwired, which is how it
survived the first round.
Finding 2: the armed-drag early return now checks the arming frontend,
so one frontend's in-flight gesture cannot cancel or swallow another's
mouse events. New acc30c.
Finding 3: `paint_mode_line_graphemes`'s doc block was left heading
`paint_divider_segment`; moved back.
Finding 4: a recompile carries no `display`, so it took the raw switch
and duplicated a panel-placed `*compilation*` into the document window.
`start_run` now detects that the buffer already owns the panel slot.
`pmacs.window.buffer` gained an optional window argument so an adopter
can ask without selecting the panel first. New acc19b.
Stage-2 hazard pins the review asked for, both in `src/daemon.rs`:
a fresh attach while LOCAL is focused in a panel inherits LOCAL's
document buffer, and an initial-target bootstrap whose `after-load`
hook creates and selects a panel still reasserts into a document window.
Minor: dropped listview's dead `p.side`; documented `focus_window`'s
caller-validates contract; `jump_back` restores through `focus_window`
so the "every focus change" contract holds; `params` / `resize` default
to the acting frontend's selected window rather than the ambient one;
widened the flexible-division math to u64 intermediates.

Both earlier attempts in this branch were wrong, and the diagnostic they
added is what proved it: the macOS failure reported a stable
`rendered prefix: 6/15 ("VTERM_")` BEFORE and AFTER the CRLF change, with an
identical cursor, across two completely different child layouts. Identical
truncation under different layouts cannot be a layout problem.
The real mechanism is pinned by the repository's own unit test,
`cell::tests::diff_split_by_unchanged_cell_is_two_spans`: `cell::diff` splits
a run at any cell where `prev == next` and never transmits that cell. So when
a character of the marker already happens to sit at its destination, the host
receives the marker with that byte MISSING, not merely escaped around. The
constant 6 is the distance to the first such hole.
That makes escape-stripped matching unsound in kind rather than merely
insufficient: no matching strategy recovers a byte that was never sent. It is
removed, and `wait_for_output` is strict again. What remains asserted through
host bytes are protocol escapes pmacs writes directly — the OSC 52 clipboard
reply, the alternate-screen and bracketed-paste resets — which are not painted
cells and which the differ never touches.
Readiness now gates on a file the child publishes, the pattern the reliable
sibling test in this file already uses. That the child's output reaches the
SCREEN stays asserted in-process over `snapshot_text`, at the layer that can
actually see it; this test keeps what it uniquely owns, the host lifecycle.
`strip_ansi` and `longest_rendered_prefix` are kept as failure diagnostics
only, and now carry a case pinning the dropped-cell shape so the wrong remedy
is not reached for again. The new readiness wait reports startup breadcrumbs
on timeout; the plain helper reports only the missing path, which is the least
useful thing to know at exactly that moment.
Both the readiness gate and its timeout diagnostic were falsified by pointing
the child at a path the test does not watch.

- `listview.open`, `compile.run`, and `pmacs.terminal.open` all take the
same strict `display = "current" | "panel"`, validated before any
buffer, session, process, or wrapper exists. Omission keeps today's
behavior; Stage 3 flips the default.
- `listview.quit` / `compile.quit` delegate to `window.quit` only when
the buffer really is in a side window, so the presentation is deleted
or restored instead of leaving a source buffer stranded in the slot.
- LSP `visit_location`, LSP go-to-definition, and compile `visit_error`
route through `display_file`, so a visit from a panel lands in the
document target and fires its hook with that window active.
- `window.quit`'s Delete arm focuses the revalidated remembered origin.
- Capability fallback discards an accompanying `height` rather than
rejecting the call.
- `window.min-height` clamps a below-floor value on read instead of
refusing the write.
- `tests/bottom_panel_stage1_acceptance.rs`: 42 tests over the framing's
Stage 1 criteria, including the two production `Layout::compute`
callers, the recursive minima, hide/reappear, the final-focus matrix,
quit chains at the depth cap, per-frontend jump origins, the divider,
and a real-PTY pin of Bet B1.

The diagnostic added in the previous commit answered the question on its
first macOS run:
rendered prefix: 6/15 bytes ("VTERM_") — child text rendered only partially
So the child wrote and the host received part of the marker, but stripping
escapes did not rejoin the rest: other repainted cells sit between the two
pieces, not just cursor moves.
Six characters is exactly what fits before the right margin of this
session's 40-column child. The probe writes bare `\n`, and the supervisor's
PTY trampoline runs `stty raw`, which clears OPOST — so a lone `\n` moves
down without returning to column 1 and every line staircases five columns
right. After twenty lines the marker starts in the right margin, wraps
mid-word, and reaches the host as two pieces that no contiguous match can
join.
That also explains the intermittency: the wrap column depends on whether
pmacs has already resized the PTY from the requested 40 columns to the
window width, which races the child's first writes.
Write explicit carriage returns so every line returns to column 1 and the
markers start there. The fixture was wrong about its own line discipline;
the emulator was behaving correctly throughout.
The escape-stripped matching and the rendered-prefix diagnostic from the
previous commit are kept: they are what produced this answer, and they keep
the next such failure legible.

Stage 1 substrate for the bottom-panel arc (docs/bottom-panel-framing.md).
- `WindowParams` (side / fixed_rows / dedicated + implementation-owned
quit action and remembered document origin), `Side`, `QuitAction` with
a bounded replacement history, and the `MIN_WINDOW_OUTER_ROWS` floor.
- `Layout::compute(area, fixed)` allocates fixed rows before dividing the
remainder by weight; both production callers feed the same shared map,
including the peer-presence overlay pass that derives its own rect.
- `subtree_min_rows` / `interactive_min_rows`: the recursive minima, and
`boundary_below` for the shared drag / keyboard resize boundary rule.
- `FrontendView` gains `panel_capable`, `frame_geometry`, and the derived
`panel_hidden`, each spelled explicitly at every construction site.
- `EditorCore`: `primary_document_window`, the non-side target rule,
`display_buffer` + placement policy, `quit_window`, side-window removal
on `kill_buffer`, per-frontend jump entries with origin windows, and the
shared resolve/load-without-switch seam the initial-target bootstrap now
uses too.
- `EditorState`: the panel reconciliation transaction, geometry
declaration, the side-window `dispatch_idle_for` gate, divider paint,
and divider drag.
- `pmacs.window.display / display_file / quit / panel / params /
set_params / resize / display_target`, plus `builtin/runtime/window.lua`
with `window.panel-height`, `window.min-height`, and the resize commands.

The macOS `VTERM_ALT_READY` flake finally reported itself through #151's
breadcrumbs, identically in two runs: pmacs still running, `init.lua`
reached, `terminal.open` ok, and a settled screen whose tail is nothing but
`\x1b[22;42H` repeated 133 times.
That cursor is the evidence. A blank terminal parks at 1;1. Column 42 is
where the cursor lands after writing a 15-byte marker that ends at column
41 — so the child DID write and the emulator DID receive it. What failed
was the assertion: `wait_for_output` required the needle to appear as
contiguous bytes, but the TUI differ paints only changed cells and skips
ones that already match, so a run held contiguously on one screen row can
still reach the host as `PREF<cursor-move>IX`.
Match over escape-stripped bytes when the needle is plain text. This cannot
mask the failure that matters: text the child never wrote is absent from
the stripped stream too, so a genuinely silent child still fails. Needles
carrying their own escape (the OSC 52 clipboard reply) keep the strict path,
since stripping would consume the bytes under test.
The failure arm now also reports how much of the needle rendered, so the
next occurrence distinguishes "nothing reached the host" — a PTY/spawn
fault — from a partial render, instead of leaving a tail of pure escapes
that cannot tell them apart.
Both helpers are pinned directly, including that stripping rejoins a split
run without inventing absent text. `strip_ansi`'s first draft mishandled
`ESC ( B`, whose intermediate byte makes it three bytes rather than two;
its test caught that.

18 of the last 60 CI runs failed (30%), including repeatedly on `main`.
Every failure is macOS-only and hits BOTH Lua flavors, so it is the
runner, not LuaJIT. Sampling 7 showed only two tests.
**m8_9 outline budget** — `outline_5_level_100_entry_renders_within_100ms`
is a wall-clock budget observed at 147ms and 149ms against 100ms on
GitHub's shared macOS runners, while Linux lands comfortably under. The
measurement and its printout now always run; only the ASSERTION is gated
on `!cfg!(target_os = "macos")`, exactly as
`composition_overhead_under_ten_percent` already is in `src/editor.rs`
for the same reason. A real regression still surfaces on Linux, on the
perf gates, and in the number printed to the log.
**vterm PTY smoke** — deliberately NOT a timeout bump. Instrumenting
locally showed the failing wait completes in 40ms against a 10s budget
(250x headroom), while the genuinely tight wait in the same test (2.86s
against 5s) never fails. Four hypotheses were eliminated with evidence:
- python3 cold start: the sibling test at :494 spawns the same
/usr/bin/python3 with a TIGHTER 5s budget and passes in the very
runs where the smoke fails ("3 passed; 1 failed");
- config resolution: XDG_CONFIG_HOME is read straight from the env
(src/config.rs:49), no platform branch;
- a stalled idle loop: the run loop polls on a 60Hz frame timeout and
ticks the supervisor every frame (src/editor.rs:2522), so child
output drains without input;
- a too-small budget: see the 250x headroom above.
The real defect this commit fixes is that NONE of those could be
distinguished from the CI log, which carried only "host output never
contained VTERM_ALT_READY" plus a tail of escape bytes. init.lua now
writes breadcrumbs (reached / terminal.open ok-or-error) and the timeout
reports whether pmacs is still alive plus each breadcrumb, so the next
occurrence names its own cause:
startup: pmacs still running; init.lua reached="1"; terminal.open="ok"
Verified non-vacuous: forcing the needle to never appear produces the
line above, which also proves io.open works in pmacs's Lua — otherwise
the breadcrumbs would silently read MISSING and mislead.
Test-only; no runtime code.

Integrate folding Stage 2 and its landed-state documentation with the
protocol-v20 GPU initial-target branch. Preserve per-session fold projection
selection in the target bootstrap transaction and retain v19 compatibility
coverage after the later protocol bump.
Shut down bootstrap sockets on every dispatcher-side failure and reject
frontend events whose session state was never installed. This prevents a
lingering failed client from reaching absent render/size state.
Track target-side CRDT upgrades independently from load/create status so a
deduplicated hidden buffer is published to every existing grid replica. Add
real-daemon regressions for both failure containment and replica publication.
