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.
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.
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).
Rev 5 said acceptance 34's second edge was a killed buffer. Implementing
it showed that is false: the Rust core 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**, so lsp.lua never tears an attachment down and the drain keeps
reaching that server. The premise (the drain builds its sid list from
`attachments`) was right; the inference needed attachments to be removed
on kill, and nothing removes them.
The reachable leak has the same root cause by a different path.
`attach_buffer` drops a sid from `attachments` the moment
`server_is_live` reports false and rebuilds against a fresh server — so
`crashed` / `stopped` is the event *least* likely to be drained, and an
event-driven purge leaks in exactly the case it exists for. The purge
therefore polls `pmacs.lsp.list()`, which enumerates the manager
directly. Acceptance 34's second half now exercises a server in **no**
attachment, which is the shape that discriminates: bitten, an
event-driven purge fails it while the attached case still passes.
§0.1 finding 6, Q#LN9, and acceptance 34 all updated; the wrong wording
is left visible with its correction rather than quietly replaced, since
the mistake is the useful part.
Ledger gains the Stage 3a lane: branch, worktree, what ships, both
corrected claims, the `install_async` load-order trap, the recorded
bites, the one knowingly unpinned guard, and gate results.
Lands the approved dired framing on main as its own docs PR, and brings
the two required docs current after find-file merged as #162.
The framing was approved after two review rounds (seven findings, then
six) and revised twice more since: revision 4 recorded what implementing
Stage 0 falsified in the approved text, and revision 5 adds the coherence
impact statement that #163 made mandatory for every framing.
The coherence statement is new work, not a restatement. COHERENCE.md
section 20 Priority 1 already names this arc -- a find-file surface and
directory-argument handling -- so the framing now states which journey
steps it touches (7, and partially 3), that it adds no interaction island
because its keys are a mode-scoped keymap through the ordinary registry
and wdired is a mode swap rather than a modal layer, that it adopts the
config registry for dired.kill-when-opening, and that it inherits the
worker-attribution gap for its read_dir jobs without worsening it. It
also draws the boundary against the adjacent Journey Stage 1 arc: CLI
directory handling belongs there, the two meet at resolve_target_buffer,
and dired supplies the buffer a directory should resolve to rather than
growing a second directory surface.
One convergence worth recording: section 2 grades the golden journey
broken at step 3 because pmacs on a directory exits 1, and the mechanism
it cites -- File::open succeeding on a directory, then read_to_end
returning EISDIR -- is the same one Stage 0 pinned in its
accepting-a-directory test, where the pcall turns it into a status
message instead.
The handoff snapshot was stale through eight merges. It now anchors on
main at 2af1ab3, records COHERENCE.md as required reading and a required
framing input, and carries the two minibuffer facts find-file
established: a custom completion source cannot descend directories, and
a selected candidate shadows typed text -- both of which apply to M-x and
switch-buffer, not just find-file.
The ledger gains the dired lane with Stage 1's scope, the reason its one
Rust change cannot be done in Lua, and the rebase note for the dired
branch, whose framing commits become redundant when this lands.
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.
Stage 1 merged as #160 (`main` @ `0827dd1`); the Lean lane header and
branch line now say so, and Stage 2 gets its own subsection.
Edits stay inside the Lean lane. PR #156 is still open against both this
file and `docs/agent-handoff.md`, and it rewrites the snapshot header,
the canonical-base line, and the whole bottom-panel lane — so those are
left alone rather than merged twice. `agent-handoff.md` is untouched for
the same reason plus its own: §1 describes what is on `main`, so it
updates at merge, not during review.
Records the one finding this stage turned up but did not fix:
`ensure_server` never forwards `cfg.restart` to `pmacs.lsp.spawn`, so a
`restart` in `pmacs.lsp.config[lang]` is silently dropped on the
auto-attach path. Pre-existing, and out of scope for a PR whose
acceptance 16 pins existing attach behavior as unchanged.
Review round 1 flagged that neither ledger knew about this branch, and
`docs/active-work.md`'s stated job is exactly the volatile open lanes.
Records the branch, base, framing revision, what Stage 1 ships, the
discharged Q#LN1 obligation, the Q#LN4 blast radius, and the four
implementation findings that are not in the framing (the `warning`
colour collision with `number`, `Some(1)` resolving to `@function`
rather than `@constructor`, the `module > declaration > def` nesting,
and `injection_aliases` being a write-only proxy). Also carries forward
the two Stage 2 corrections the framing already holds, since that lane
starts next.
Deliberately ADDITIVE ONLY -- one new section, zero deleted lines. PR
#156 is open against both this file and `docs/agent-handoff.md` and owns
the snapshot header, the canonical-base line, and the bottom-panel
lane's status. Touching those here would collide with a PR already in
review, which is the "frozen reviewed PRs do not absorb moving
overlapping work" lesson from #135/#137.
`docs/agent-handoff.md` is deliberately untouched: its §1 snapshot
describes what is ON `main`, so it gets updated when this merges, not
while it is in review.

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.

`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.

Adds the lane to docs/active-work.md: branch, base, what Stage 1
implemented, the verification run, and the two known local-only test
caveats (the parallel-load GPU flake and compile_mode_acceptance's
single-thread requirement).
The durable handoff snapshot stays untouched until the PR merges, per
its own update protocol.

Move the lane from active-work.md into its Closed section, retire the
protocol v20 / main-hash references to LANDED form in agent-handoff.md, and
record both review-round lessons (failure-socket containment, upgrade-gated
replica publication) in the ops-lessons ledger.
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.
Post-merge housekeeping owed from #149, kept as its own docs-only PR per
the #138-#140 / #147 convention. No runtime code.
- active-work.md: base snapshot and the recovery check bump 47581f4 ->
6ed4fe9. The Stage 2 lane is retired and replaced by a folding lane that
records both stages as merged with nothing in flight, and states Stage 3
(GPU) has no branch and no framing yet — carrying its named obligations
(GPU collapse at TUI parity, caret/hit-test fold-awareness, the
BufferSnapshot fold-mirror clear, CRDT-origin unfold, and flipping
FrontendView.fold_projection true for semantic frontends) as that
framing's starting point. "Closed since the last snapshot" gains #149
and #147.
- agent-handoff.md §1: main @ 6ed4fe9, the "Last updated" line and section
date, the Stage 2 bullet flipped from IMPLEMENTED/PR-OPEN to LANDED with
the Stage 3 obligations attached, and the roadmap entry (remaining arcs
now read "6 folding Stage 3").
Both stages' design points are recorded as traps Stage 3 inherits rather
than as history: the merged-hidden-component unit, per-window/per-target
map instances, per-frontend projection, position-not-row normalization,
and the post-intercept edit site.

Post-merge housekeeping owed from #142, kept as its own docs PR (no
runtime code).
- agent-handoff.md §1: bump main to c49a8c7, add the folding Stage 1
substrate bullet (store/View, structural source, C-c @ surface,
command-path unfold, FoldState production; no protocol bump), refresh
the "Last updated" line and the roadmap Arc 6 entry, and note Stage 2
is in framing on folding-tui (the visible-line-map reframe).
- active-work.md: retire the Stage 1 folding lane (PR #142 was OPEN),
add a "Closed since the last snapshot" entry for #142, open the
Stage 2 (grid/daemon collapse) framing lane on folding-tui, and
refresh the canonical base snapshot to c49a8c7.

Keep foreign BufferSnapshot publications out of existing semantic GPU
sessions while retaining grid-replica coherence. Treat dead peer writes as
peer-local failures, restore active-frontend cleanup, deterministic probe
readiness, GPU logging, shared tilde expansion, and accurate docs.
Add focused publication and cleanup coverage and record the two-window
Wayland/Vulkan smoke plus the complete post-review gate results.
Update the framing, durable handoff, and active-work ledger after integrating
current canonical main and completing the required gates and real GPU smoke.
Add protocol-v20 semantic bootstrap and readiness result framing so
`pmacs --gpu FILE` opens the requested path before the GPU window becomes
ready. Keep target identity scoped to the authenticated frontend, preserve
legacy/no-target attach behavior, and publish fresh buffers coherently to
existing replicas.
Carry Unix path bytes and launcher cwd through the root broker, resolve paths
lexically in the daemon, reuse or create buffers without ambient-view state,
and preserve the managed daemon lifecycle from #141. Add focused parser,
wire, lifecycle, hook, isolation, and real-connector acceptance coverage.
Advance the active lane to Revision 2 and record closure of all four
non-structural framing findings. Keep implementation gated on explicit user
approval.
Advance the volatile ledger to the current canonical base and record the
portable Revision 1 framing checkpoint, scope, recovery command, and approval
boundary.
Round 2 correctly found the Finding-2/3 fixes were unpinned (reverting
them left the suite green). Both are now bite-verified:
- **Kill-path purge (Finding 2).** Replaced the direct
`forget_buffer(id)` unit test with
`killing_a_buffer_through_the_real_path_purges_its_fold_store`, which
drives `pmacs.buffer.remove` — the production route through
`after_buffer_removed` — and asserts the store is gone via the dead id
(BufferIds never recycle). Mirrors config_registry's real-kill-path
test. Bite-verified: reverting the `after_buffer_removed` fold branch
turns it red.
- **close-all point move (Finding 3).** Added
`close_all_command_moves_point_to_enclosing_head`, which invokes the
`fold.close-all` command with the point inside the second of two
top-level fns and asserts the cursor landed on that fn's head-line
content end (and both folds exist). Bite-verified: reverting close_all's
`maybe_move_point` loop turns it red.
- Ledger: `docs/active-work.md` folding lane now records PR #142 OPEN +
the two landed review rounds (was "opens once the gate suite is green").
Correction to the round-1 gate report: the acceptance suite is **21**
tests (round 1 was 20, not 24 — a tally slip), green under default and
`--features crdt`. Full gate suite otherwise green (fmt, clippy
--workspace --all-targets, git diff --check).

Advance the durable snapshot to merge 63fbc66, record the green CI rerun, and
remove the completed GPU invocation lane from the volatile active-work ledger.
Advance the framing to Revision 6 and record the strengthened non-CRDT,
Ctrl-C, strict-operand, probe-throttling, and PID-cleanup contracts. Update the
durable and volatile checkpoints to implementation commit 154cb9f.
Advance the active and durable checkpoints to 69825d0 and clarify that every
spawned managed daemon enters the named reaper before connection or handshake
work can fail.
Advance the framing to Revision 5 and record the reviewed lifecycle, CLI, and
acceptance contracts. Update the durable and volatile handoffs with checkpoint
82355ca and the completed verification matrix.
Update the durable handoff and volatile active-work ledger for open PR #141, including the implementation checkpoint, accepted architecture, verification record, visible Wayland/Vulkan smoke, and cross-machine recovery commands.
Q#FD4 settled: the user chose Emacs hideshow parity, so Stage 1 ships the
`C-c @` prefix set (`C-c <letter>` is fully taken by the LSP surface; the
hs-minor-mode prefix collides with nothing). §6/§9 now list the five
bindings; §0 records the rev 4 -> rev 5 approval note; §14 records the
rebase onto canonical `main` @ 96d0bae at implementation start. Bet B1
accepted as framed. active-work.md folding lane flipped to APPROVED /
Stage 1 implementing.

One major, three minors, and a nit from the third review, all fixed:
R3-1 (major, derived head line): rev 3's head-selection ascend was not a
no-op for brace languages — rustfmt wraps long signatures
(fn foo( / a: u32, / ) -> bool {) and puts { on its own line under where
clauses, so block.start_line > parent.start_line, the ascend fired, and
the fold hid the wrapped signature: the R2-5 defect class one level up.
Replaced by a derived head line — the interior comes from the body node
alone (closer-aware tail unchanged) and the head is the line immediately
above the first hidden line (B.start_line - 1 for an introduced
delimiter-less body, B.start_line otherwise). Emacs hideshow / LSP
foldingRange parity: the fold hides the body, nothing else. The
introducer<->body association survives for matching and close-all only.
Acceptance 1 gains wrapped-signature cases in both grammar shapes.
R3-2: "innermost-first" on a shared head line made the outer fold
unreachable via fold.toggle (close inner, reopen inner, forever) and
allowed zero-visible-change presses. Replaced by state-aware ordering:
close acts on the innermost open fold, open on the outermost closed
fold, toggle cycles org-TAB-style (close inward-out, then open all).
Acceptance 9 updated.
R3-3: Stage 1's "command path" is dispatch_key self-insert/delete only;
interactive Lua commands (yank, query-replace, comment-toggle) mutate
through the Lua mutator path and classify programmatic, so their edits
land inside a fold without unfolding. Stated as the intended Stage 1
line; widening the classifier to interactive Lua command contexts is a
named Stage 2 obligation beside Stage 3's CRDT-origin unfold.
R3-4: the data API's normalization of an arbitrary range is now defined
(head = line containing start; hidden = full lines strictly after it
through the line containing end, exclusive of an end at a line start).
Nit: stored-range containment pinned start-exclusive/end-inclusive with
the matching View boundary bias, so typing at the end of a head line
neither unfolds nor lands hidden; acceptance 6 asserts it.
Also: Sec 14 records that canonical main has advanced past the cac4961
base (docs + tab-width #137, no Stage 1 overlap; rebase at
implementation start), and the active-work folding lane is brought
current (head was stale at rev 1).

The ledger inherited from #135's merge still listed Vterm Stage 3 as an
open 'never merge without authorization' implementation lane; it is merged
(main @ cac4961), so per the update protocol it moves to Closed and Arc 5's
terminal stage is marked complete. Adds the folding framing lane (branch
folding, off cac4961, framing-only) and points the canonical base at
cac4961 / protocol v19.
Advance canonical state to protocol v19, close the Vterm lane and roadmap arc, preserve the cross-PR integration lesson, mark PR #91 landed, and point machine-local housekeeping at the durable policy.
vterm-stage3-framing (superseded; content carried on vterm-gpu) and
tab-width-parity (merged via #137) were deleted with authorization —
worktree + local ref + githubsucks ref, origin tracking pruned. The
-framing branches for each are kept. Retires the now-dangling
superseded-lane recovery entry.
Integrates canonical `main` @ 2625ec7 after PR #137 (tab-width parity)
merged. The agreed order was #137 first, this lane second: #137 was
approved and FROZEN at 5b23e11, and "frozen" is incompatible with
"rebase onto the resulting main" — landing it second would have broken
its freeze and voided its approval.
Integrated by MERGING main into the branch rather than rebasing, matching
repo precedent (Merge canonical main into vterm-tui, ... into modeline
detection). A rebase would have force-pushed away the review anchors on
the two completed review rounds of #135.
Main had also moved past this lane's base by #133/#134/#136, so the
integration surface was wider than the #135/#137 overlap: src/
semantic_render.rs was a fourth overlapping code file. It auto-merged, as
did pmacs-protocol/src/lib.rs. The single code conflict was the
pmacs_protocol import list in pmacs-gpu/src/main.rs — TAB_STOP_COLUMNS
against the terminal types — resolved as a union.
The feared semantic collision did not occur, and this is verified rather
than assumed: terminal cell geometry still uses the monospace advance and
never TAB_STOP_COLUMNS. pmacs-gpu/src/terminal.rs references neither the
constant nor display_width, and terminal_cell_viewport / terminal_run_rect
/ hit_test_cell derive from mono_advance() and code_line_height() alone.
That separation is correct by construction: a terminal's columns come
from the child, while tab expansion is a document projection concern.
Doc conflicts resolved toward landed state: the tab-width lane moves to
"Closed since the last snapshot", the #135/#137 coordination section is
kept as a resolved worked example, and the Arc 5 lines in the roadmap and
handoff now read "implemented and in review". While resolving, restored a
clause main had dropped from the handoff's injection-follow-ups list
("literals, doc-comment code);"), keeping main's strikethrough-and-SHIPPED
convention for the modeline entry.
Post-integration gates, from a clean tree: cargo fmt --check; strict
workspace clippy; pmacs-protocol 17; cargo test --lib 1,768; --features
crdt 1,944 (3 ignored each); vterm Stage 1 9/10, Stage 2 4/4, Stage 3
5/7, statusline 7/8, tab-width 2/2 (default/CRDT); M4 121 passed (3
ignored, 1 filtered); required GPU 139; workspace sweep 2,946 passed
across 84 suites (19 ignored), one invocation; git diff --check clean.
PR #137 (tab-width-parity) is approved and frozen at 5b23e11. Neither
lane copies from or merges the other; whichever lands second rebases
onto the canonical resulting main and reruns the complete gate suite.
The overlap is pmacs-gpu/src/main.rs, pmacs-protocol/src/lib.rs,
Cargo.lock, and the two ledger docs. The lock and docs are mechanical;
the two source files are not — both PRs edit the GPU renderer's
measurement path and widen the protocol crate's export surface in the
same region, so a conflict-free apply is not evidence of a correct
merge.
One real defect, three cleanups, and a named deferral.
A daemon disconnect in terminal mode hid the disconnect notice. The
Disconnected arm set the placeholder text but never left terminal mode,
where the document code layer is not prepared at all and the terminal glyph
layer keeps painting its last frame — so the user was left looking at a
frozen, live-looking terminal that silently ignored input. GPU auto-reconnect
is a named deferral, so that state persisted until relaunch. State::
on_daemon_disconnected now leaves terminal mode, forces a repaint even when
the notice text is byte-identical, and requests a redraw.
The fix and its test share a file, so scripts/bite's file granularity cannot
bite it; the equivalent was done by hand. Neutralizing only the
exit_terminal_mode() call makes the test fail on the "must leave terminal
mode" assertion; restoring it makes it pass.
sync_semantic_terminal_layout no longer clones the whole visible cell grid to
read one size. It ran every dispatcher tick for any semantic frontend with a
declared terminal; TerminalManager::screen_size reads the value from the
borrowed projection instead.
Inbound terminal events now require a negotiated v19 session. The outbound
TerminalFrame was gated twice while TerminalResize/TerminalPointer relied on
the frontend's send gate alone. A pre-v19 peer cannot construct those
variants, so this only refuses a hand-rolled client — and the a32 forgery
tests already prove such an event reaches nothing but the sender's own
authenticated active view — but the asymmetry was not deliberate.
A terminal-mode press that misses the grid no longer arms a drag, so a later
in-grid motion cannot send a Drag with no preceding Down. Daemon-side impact
was nil; the state is now honest. A release still always ends the drag.
The roadmap and handoff Arc 5 lines still said Stage 3 was framed and
awaiting approval, contradicting this PR's own ledger. Both corrected.
Named deferral: terminal wheel gestures discard scroll magnitude. One winit
wheel event becomes one gesture regardless of the lines it accumulated, while
the document path scrolls by lines. Closing it means either N gestures
(chattier) or a magnitude field on the pointer event — a protocol change.
Neither belongs in this stage.
Gates: fmt; strict workspace clippy; 1,758 default + 1,934 CRDT library
tests; Stage 1 9/10, Stage 2 4/4, Stage 3 5/7, statusline 7/8
(default/CRDT); M4 120; required GPU 129; workspace sweep 2,923 across 83
suites; diff check clean.
