Answers review round 5 on cab3404 -- five P1, two P2. All seven confirmed
against the tree. Withdraws two of revision 5's decisions and corrects one
assertion it made about containment.
Numbering: the review asked for "revision 5", but the reviewed commit
already carried revision 5 (238fd04, closing round 4), so this is revision
6. Recorded in the document rather than silently renumbered.
Base measured at the moment of writing, not carried from a briefing:
githubsucks/main is 64883eb, merged here at 76cfaac. Every count and every
pre-image is stated as a reading at 76cfaac rather than a constant, because
the base has moved four times while this document has been open. Verified
rather than assumed that 300cbc4..64883eb touches only docs/ and
scripts/bite -- no product code -- which is what lets the source citations
survive the move.
P1-1, criterion 5 impossible. begin_edit and apply_edit each call
ensure_writable as their first statement, so a locked rope returns ReadOnly
and no intercept runs. The named-error requirement moves behind a Rust-side
lift, where the intercept genuinely is the guard; criterion 5 splits into
(a) refused-and-unchanged and (b) refused-by-the-intercept-under-a-lift,
and (b) is where the original bite survives. Consequence revisions 1-5 all
missed: after adoption the intercept is unreachable on the ordinary path
including in the shipped precedent -- terminal.lua's has been dead since
#178.
P1-2, Diverged classifier. Revision 5 got three of seven cases wrong, not
one: export_updates_since runs after every successful CRDT mutation for all
three op shapes, and revision 5 mapped all three to Rejected, whose cleanup
restores a fresh buffer to writable while CRDT and rope disagree -- the
exact harm round 4's P1-3 withdrew the four-variant fallback to prevent.
Replaced by a crdt_mutated flag carried out of the routing function, total
by construction rather than an enumeration a future failure point escapes.
P1-3, containment. Revision 5's "strongest available containment" was
wrong; neither export path reads read_only and neither can, since read_only
is about inbound mutation. New crdt_quarantined flag with three consumers
-- both export sites and queue_daemon_origin_crdt_op, the third not named
by the review. Repair stays deferred and quarantine's cost is stated.
P1-4, stale views. The review named one broadcast site; the sweep found
four, and two it did not name are load-bearing here: buffer.rs:1250 is the
arm every NoOp takes, including Q#GB5's ensure_slot lock, and :1033 is how
a locked buffer's write reaches a replica. All four adopt
continue-and-retain-first-error. Criterion 15a gains a RecordingView after
FailingView, without which it cannot see the gap.
P1-5, selection anchor. The only one of the three coordinates that panics.
Clamp-or-clear in both clamp sites, for every affected window -- and the
rule is not invented: src/terminal/view.rs:715-721 already solved the
identical problem for TerminalSelection, collapsed_by_clamp included. Also
found: a stale anchor reaches the presence broadcast, not only the local
slice.
P2-6, pre-images. Four named, six wrong. Relabelled with a table stating
what the base actually does per criterion, re-derived at 76cfaac and
labelled as a reading at that commit.
P2-7, unfold before refusal. A read-only generated_preflight runs exits 1-4
before the unfold; apply_generated_edit still re-checks all four because
the borrow is released between and Buffer stays the only authority.
Sweep F, recovery mechanisms audited for unenumerated failure points: 10
examined, 4 broken (all four are the review's), and within them three exits
the review did not name.
Sweep G, pre-images re-derived from what the base does: 41 criteria
audited, 6 mislabelled. Arithmetic shown, since a count asserted without
one is what the sweep exists to catch.
Citation audit: PR #187 moved four source files, and 15 stale citation
instances across 9 distinct citations were found and corrected. The tell
was internal -- revision 6's new text cited editor_core.rs:1836 and :1865
for the same two functions older text still cited as :1814 and :1843. A
citation is a reading too, and this document had not been re-reading them.
Records the #188/#191 acceptance-contract boundary verbatim, and the two
divergences it has already had to settle.
Status stays PROPOSED. No runtime code, no protocol change.

Close review round four by preserving applied edits through the
borrow-free fan-out, making the transaction criteria discriminating,
removing the unproven unlock capability, requiring the CRDT divergence
fault seam, and aligning Stage 2 with owner-local identity routing.
Update the active-work lane to carry revision 5 and its cross-lane
facts.
Answers review round 3 on 8e032d7 -- three P1, two P2. All five confirmed
against the tree; none re-litigated. Withdraws three of revision 3's own
decisions.
Why revision 3's exactness argument did not extend to CRDT: it proved that
`revision` bumps between the undo push and the on_edit broadcast, which
makes the predicate exact for the v0.1 stack -- and then treated that as a
proof about cleanup in general, when CRDT mutation happens upstream of
`revision` entirely (apply_to_crdt_then_normalize_bytes runs before the
rope edit). The argument was sound about the mechanism it examined and
silent about the one it did not, and stating it as a proof is what stopped
it being checked against the second.
P1-1, the cleanup predicate. Wrong in three directions, not two. Section
3.4 is rewritten around an explicit five-variant GeneratedOutcome reported
by the apply. Direction A is fixed by restating the invariant as a property
of the buffer -- a generated-locked buffer carries no history -- so NoOp
clears; that phrasing needs no reference to `revision` and is therefore
mode-independent, which is the actual repair. Direction B gets a Diverged
variant that clears nothing and surfaces, because clearing would destroy
the last local record of the pre-edit rope; the divergence itself is
pre-existing, reaches apply_edit today, and is deferred as its own lane
rather than pretended to be fixed here. Third direction, found while fixing
the other two and not in the review: the unconditional relock locked a
fresh buffer that was never successfully written -- a mid-codepoint
generated insert on a writable *scratch* returned Err and left it
read-only. Rejected now restores the entry lock state.
P1-2, vacuous criteria 15-16. Confirmed, and the contradiction was internal
-- section 3.4 argued pre-validation makes an invalid range cost nothing,
then the criteria used an invalid range to test post-apply cleanup, in
adjacent sections. Both rewritten around a valid write that fails at the
on_edit broadcast, staged with a Rust-side FailingView (view::View is pub,
attach_view is pub). Criterion 16 splits, because section 3.4 now answers
relock-on-failure and no-lock-on-refusal differently. New 16b and 16c cover
the two P1-1 directions; 16c carries an explicit caveat that its staging
recipe is not verified here, with a four-variant fallback rather than a
criterion that passes by never reaching its path. Rule adopted: every
criterion names the exit it drives the implementation to, and that exit
must be inside the mechanism under test.
P1-3, provenance. generated_lock withdrawn. The defect is not the rule's
details but that a derived fact must be maintained by every mutation of
what it derives from, and set_read_only is pub with callers this document
does not control. Replaced by identity_protected -- a property of what the
buffer is, set once by TerminalSession::open, never written by
set_read_only. The lift/upgrade/restore cycle at
terminal_copy_mode_acceptance.rs:578-584 is transparent to it, so Q#GB12
and Stage 2 criterion 4 need no change, which is the test that the rule is
right. Section 10 now names `--test terminal_copy_mode_acceptance --features
crdt` as its own gate step: acc16e is cfg-gated, so a default-feature run
never compiles it.
P2-4, the registration dependency. Confirmed: revision 3 replaced an
existing guarded optional dependency with an unguarded call, and the
configuration the guard defends is reachable -- LuaHost is pub and nine
test files already build one. Q#GB18 becomes symmetric guarded optionality:
each module answers for its own buffers and consults the other through the
guard shape already in the tree. That also removes the teardown obligation
revision 3's registry introduced. New criterion 21 pins the minimal
harness.
P2-5, the fold criterion. Confirmed. Split into 13a [main] for the
behaviour change and 13b [mutation] for the status string, whose pre-image
cannot be main because on main the call succeeds and sets no status.
Sweep D, rules spanning v0.1/CRDT or fresh-lock/existing-lock: 13 examined,
3 broken (the two the review named plus the relock one), 1 that looked at
risk and verified clean -- undo_crdt_mode does return NothingToUndo
(src/buffer.rs:1374-1376), so Stage 2 criterion 4's assertion is correct in
both modes.
Sweep E, every criterion added in revisions 3 and 4 audited for whether the
state it asserts is reachable by the operation it performs: 19 audited, 3
defects, all fixed here. Also records that S2-17 is the one criterion for
which the pre-validation exit IS the mechanism under test, so it stays as
written.
All counts re-measured at 7586905 with the command output pasted into the
revision-4 block; all unchanged.
Status stays PROPOSED. No runtime code, no protocol change.

Answers review round 2 on #188 @ 516bd35 -- three P1, two P2 -- integrated
to main @ 7586905 (#189, COHERENCE.md only; clean merge).
P1-1, the route cannot write to a locked buffer. Confirmed, and the
review's first repair option cannot work: reordering begin_edit's two
checks leaves ensure_writable running one line later, so a locked buffer
is still refused and only the reported error changes. Any admitting path
must not reach ensure_writable at all. Q#GB3 is reversed -- generated
writes get their own run_buffer_edit arm and never touch begin_edit -- and
new section 3.4 specifies the transaction: one &mut Buffer method, eight
named exits with the post-state of each, relock and editing_in_progress
clear unconditional, bounds pre-validated so an invalid range costs no
history, and history cleared iff the revision advanced (exact, because
revision bumps after the undo push and before the on_edit broadcast).
Proved along the way that no Lua runs inside a generated write:
LuaInterceptView implements only intercept_edit and inherits View::on_edit's
no-op default, so the only re-entrancy direction that needs a gate is
outward.
P1-2, disambiguation. New section 2.10 is the census: 19 units across 14
grep lines, five classes, arithmetic shown, each classified by reading its
enclosing function. Two sites break; between them six downstream consumers,
not three. The fourth listview consumer is listview.open's own
never-capture-a-panel guard, which fails inverted and silently -- it
captures the panel as its own q target, the exact loop its comment says it
prevents. compile's slots table is NOT affected (keyed by a module
constant, slot_for_buffer is id-based). New Q#GB18 routes both by owned
BufferId, and notes listview registers no on_removed so its new list must
compact on scan like dired's live_handles.
P1-3, unlock_generated. Withdrawn as written; both halves of the finding
hold. Sweep C found the mirror-image hole the review did not: the SHIPPED
set_generated_contents lifts a lock it did not install, so it can already
overwrite a live terminal identity buffer. Provenance (new Q#GB15,
generated_lock beside read_only) therefore earns its cost in both
directions rather than existing to make the unlock safe. Q#GB7 moves to
Stage 2, its claim narrows from "brick escape" to "the closure of the
capability { generated = true } adds", and the asymmetry with the standing
no-Lua-set_read_only policy is addressed directly: a provenance-bounded
unlock adds no reachable state that { generated = true } did not.
P2-4, criterion 6. Confirmed, and the framing cited the wrong precedent:
terminal_copy_mode_acceptance has zero dispatch_idle_for references. The
model is dired_acceptance.rs:969. dispatch_idle_for has six ways to return
false and the review named one, so the criterion now carries three halves
-- document-window premise, the gate, and acc16's positive control, which
rules out the other five clauses in one assertion.
P2-5, the path-backed refusal. Now exercised on all four surfaces with
guard misplacement as the explicit bite.
Sweep C (obligation 3) also found that read_only is one boolean serving
three policies: the generated lock, terminal identity, and -- as a reader
-- fold.rs:313's "is this a document buffer" test, pinned by
folding_acceptance.rs:570. Locking five families silently disables
pmacs.fold.fold on all five, which contradicts Q#GB3's own stated rationale
for preserving the unfold seam. New Q#GB16 names it and recommends
accepting it with a criterion rather than accepting it silently.
Two further corrections the review did not name. COHERENCE.md section 14's
listview list was corrected by #189 while revision 2 was open, so section
1.5 goes from owed to landed -- a merged correction is removed, not
restated. And *help* has two independent writers, src/help.rs:354 (Rust,
apply_edit, mark_clean) and default.lua:1239 (Lua, no mark_clean), each
with its own find-by-name and its own copy of the name constant, so the
inventory's headline is five mechanisms, not four.
Section 2.9's is_modified sweep is corrected a second time: seven
production consumers, two load-bearing. Revision 1 said two, revision 2
said four. The conclusion is unchanged but was reached twice from an
incomplete count.
New section 9b records the cross-lane boundaries verbatim and confirms
Q#DR25 against #171 revision 7 at fd7ae37. Revisions 1 and 2 never
mentioned Q#DR25 at all despite owning it; revision 3 claims it, and
carries #171's trap that dired_acceptance.rs:969's read-only status
assertion passes both before and after adoption.
Twelve acceptance criteria added or rewritten, each stating what it asserts
about content produced and the mutation that falsifies it. Stage 2 gains
criteria for the transaction's error paths specifically -- a leaked
editing_in_progress asserted through the NEXT edit, not the failing one,
because the failing call reports the same error either way.
Why revision 2 shipped these: it audited criteria against pre-images
(sweep A) and capabilities against who may use them (sweep B), but never
read the guards its own mechanisms had to pass through. begin_edit,
document_bytes and terminal/session.rs:305 were all cited elsewhere in the
tree and none was opened. The process fact for revision 4: for every seam
the design routes through, read the callee, not the caller's description of
it.
Status stays PROPOSED. No runtime code, no protocol change.

PROPOSED. Framing only; still no runtime code.
Answers five review findings on PR #188 at 9101bf5 (three P1, two P2),
plus the two sweeps the review asked for by class.
P1-1: Stage 2 criteria 3, 4 and 5 all passed on the pre-image. Ordinary
edits are already refused by the existing intercept, and Buffer::undo
checks read_only before it inspects history, so "undo returns false"
passes against an implementation that locks and never clears. Rewritten
to use a bypass write or Rust-side is_read_only for the lock, and to lift
the lock inside a Rust test before asserting NothingToUndo.
P1-2: ownership by handle is now a prerequisite of the stage that locks
each writer. Measured: a foreign *references* is clobbered and left
permanently un-editable, a pmacs.compile.run that raises on validation
still leaves a foreign *compilation* un-editable, and M-x buffer.undo is
currently the only recovery -- which this arc removes.
P1-3: revision 1 was wrong that is_modified drives only the mode line.
autosave.rs:363 and desktop.rs:302 read it. The rule chosen: a generated
write refuses a buffer that has a file_path.
P2-4: view_top is a line index, cursor is a byte position. The clamp is
now per-coordinate and ungated.
P2-5: re-measured at ad41cf1, 276 dark, with the command shown.
Sweep A found Stage 1 criterion 7's stated bite was wrong, and that eight
criteria pass on main by design without saying so; every criterion now
carries a pre-image class. Sweep B found the two halves of the protection
are asymmetric -- the intercept is removable, the rope lock is not --
which falsifies revision 1's reason for deferring the unlock, so Q#GB7 is
upgraded to Stage 1 work.
Adds the PR #188 lane to docs/active-work.md, which the ledger now
requires for every open PR.
PROPOSED. Framing only; no runtime code.
Buffer::undo gates on ensure_writable() and never consults the intercept
chain, so the add_intercept "read-only" idiom leaves the rope writable
and the owner's own bypass_intercept paint on the undo stack. Four writer
mechanisms across five buffer families are affected; every one was
reproduced by execution at ad41cf1, not inferred.
The document carries the measured reproductions, the full classified
census with its arithmetic shown, the primitive decision with numbered
alternatives, per-criterion bite obligations, and the staging proposal.
Recommended primitive: Buffer::apply_generated_edit(op), exposed as a
{ generated = true } option on the existing Lua mutators, with
set_generated_contents reimplemented as its whole-buffer wrapper. It is
the only candidate in which the buffer is never observably unlocked.
