feat(workers): a required purpose on every job and process — worker identity Stage 1
`COHERENCE.md` §9 grades the worker model "mechanism without identity",
and §0 names step 11 (background-work ownership) as one of the two
remaining thin ends of the golden journey. The mechanism half is solid —
cancellation, supersession, streaming, frame-aware draining, `*workers*`.
The identity half was absent: `PendingJob` carried no description of what
it was doing, `pmacs.workers.dispatch` discarded the registered handler
name three layers above anything that takes one, and §9's "no progress
indicator exists anywhere" was checkable and true.

Framing: `docs/worker-identity-framing.md` (revision 4, approved).

What lands:

**A required `purpose`, on the job and on the process.** Non-optional,
with no `Default`, so the compiler — not a test — is what proves every
dispatcher supplied one. `allocate` / `allocate_with_resource` collapse
into ONE private `JobSpec`-taking funnel (Q#W-1): the two-function split
existed only because one prior lane needed one extra parameter, and a
second lane doing the same produces `allocate_with_resource_and_identity`.
`register_external` gains a `purpose` parameter rather than deriving one,
because its `JobKind` is `McpRequest`/`LspRequest` for every method — a
category, not a description.

**A dispatch-name ambient (Q#W-2), read at that same single funnel.** The
capture point is Rust, not the Lua wrapper layer, because a handler
reaching straight for `pmacs._async._dispatch_*` bypasses the wrappers
entirely — and those are precisely the callers attribution exists for.
Seven rules; the ones that decide whether it is honest:

- **Rule 1 — the extent is NON-YIELDABLE, and that is ENFORCED.** Both
  supported yield APIs refuse inside it, modelled on the `commit_to`
  refusal already in `async.lua`. The guards reject BEFORE parking and
  reject UNCONDITIONALLY: one placed after `_is_complete` would fire only
  when a yield really occurred, passing under test and failing
  intermittently in production.
- **A raw `coroutine.yield` is NOT covered, and nothing here claims it
  is.** R46 is a convention, and the scheduler inspects the yielded value
  only after `coroutine.resume` returns — by which point the coroutine has
  already suspended — so no refusal sited in a yield helper is ever
  consulted. The residual is recorded in the framing §2 and in the
  suite's module docs rather than papered over with a test that would
  imply coverage this design lacks.
- **Rule 5 — unwind-safe.** A raising handler still pops. A version that
  did not would let one failure poison every later dispatch in the session
  with a stale name: the feature would stop failing loudly and start lying
  silently. The bracketing also has to preserve the tail call it replaced:
  `dispatch` was `return handler(args, opts)` and propagated EVERY return
  value, so the pop/rethrow runs behind a varargs boundary rather than a
  `local ok, result = pcall(...)` that would silently truncate a
  multi-value handler. Varargs rather than `table.pack`, because that is
  Lua 5.2 surface and LuaJIT is this project's default backend.
- **Rule 6 — compose, do not replace.** `"<name>: <purpose>"`, because
  letting the dispatcher's purpose win loses the third party again and
  letting the name win discards the only description of the actual work.

**A statusline activity indicator** — the fourth `pmacs.statusline.register`
adopter, after `mode`, `terminal` and `lsp`. A count plus the OLDEST
in-flight job's purpose ("busiest" is not a defined quantity; jobs carry
no cost estimate), and **absent entirely** when idle rather than a
zero-width segment that costs modeline width forever to say nothing is
happening. Gated by one setting, `ui.activity-indicator` (boolean, default
true, Q#W-6) — a permanently-visible modeline element is a preference
someone genuinely holds on day one. No setting for purpose capture
itself: that is substrate.

**NO WIRE CHANGE.** The indicator rides the existing `StatuslineSegments`
vector, so a fourth provider adds an element, not a variant.
`PROTOCOL_VERSION` and `ADVERTISED_PROTOCOL_VERSION` are untouched — which
is the property that lets this run beside the two lanes holding the bump
slot.

**Q#W-7 — a pre-existing defect, repaired here, and NOT one anybody has
observed.** `Handle:await()` refuses inside `pmacs.window.commit_to`
precisely so a coroutine cannot park with the frontend scope pushed
(Journey Stage 1a, Q#JR14b). But `pmacs.async.yield_to_next_tick()` also
yields, is public, and carried no such refusal — so that invariant had a
second entrance, and a coroutine could produce exactly the misrouting the
`await` guard exists to prevent. It gains both refusals here: the same
supported yield helper, the same invariant, the same edit family, so
splitting it would have preserved a known hole without reducing
integration risk.

**Reachability by a real caller is UNPROVEN.** This was found by reading
the guard family while scouting rule 1, not by reproducing a fault. No
production caller is known to yield through that door inside a commit,
and the test pins the guard rather than reproducing a user-visible bug.
Nobody should later cite this commit as evidence the bug was observed in
the wild. Its witness is a PAIR, like rule 1's: the refusal fires **and**
the commit scope is restored afterwards — a guard that raises while
leaving the scope pushed converts a silent fault into a loud one and
fixes neither.

`journey_acceptance` carries the established `commit_to` pins —
forged-destination refusal, scope-and-restore on normal return and on
raise, the await refusal, delivery to the requesting frontend. It passes
**untouched**, which is what says this closed a gap in Journey Stage 1a's
semantics rather than altering them.

What is deliberately NOT here, and why it is worth saying:

- **No `owner`, in any spelling** — not `origin`, not `subsystem` (§3).
  Populated from static per-subsystem constants it would be an origin,
  not an owner, and would confidently misattribute third-party work to a
  builtin at exactly the point §9 wants attribution. A field that asserts
  a falsehood is worse than an absent one. The slot stays empty until P3
  can fill it with a real package signal.
- **No `parent`** (Q#W-5). An unpopulated field renders as `None`
  everywhere and reads as "this job has no parent" rather than "this
  system does not track parents". Stage 3 builds the lifetime model and
  the field together.

Consequences worth recording:

- `ProcessSpec::new` takes a third argument. The 40-odd call sites are
  almost all tests; the three production ones (LSP, MCP, terminal) supply
  real descriptions. `pmacs.process.spawn`'s Lua surface keeps `purpose`
  OPTIONAL, falling back to the label — requiring it there would break
  every existing caller for no coverage the compiler is not already
  providing, and a caller's own label is not a fabrication.
- `pmacs.process.list` gains a `purpose` KEY on each row and enumerates
  exactly the same processes (Q#W-4). Terminal PTYs stay hidden: three
  acceptance suites use `#pmacs.process.list()` as a leak baseline, and
  widening the accessor would inflate all three. Stage 2's unified view
  owns that decision.
- `statusline_segments_acceptance`'s builtin-provider inventory grows to
  `["activity", "mode", "terminal", "lsp"]`. That assertion exists to
  grow when a builtin provider is added.

fix(lsp): a `/` search boundary no longer disables the LaTeX marker walk
`latex_within_boundary` answered a question about path COMPONENTS with
string arithmetic:

    dir:sub(1, #boundary + 1) == boundary .. "/"

With a `/` boundary the needle is `"//"`, which no canonical path
begins with. Every ancestor was therefore judged out of bounds, the
marker walk never examined a single directory, and each chapter of a
thesis got its own root — two texlab processes for one document tree.
The lane's headline behaviour, silently off, with all fourteen shipped
tests still green because every one of them clamps the boundary to its
own tempdir.

Fixed by comparing segments rather than characters, so the root is a
boundary with zero segments — containing everything by construction
instead of by a special case, and tolerating a trailing separator for
free. The same root-is-special trap sat at two other points on the same
path and is closed with it:

  * `latex_parent_of` returned nil for a top-level directory, making `/`
    the one directory the walk could never examine — the identical bug
    from the far end. It now yields `/`, matching `walk_for_marker`'s
    `Path::ancestors` on the Rust side, and still terminates because `/`
    has no component to strip.
  * `latex_root_for` sliced `/paper.tex` to an EMPTY directory, which
    canonicalizes to nothing and made the resolver DECLINE — and a
    decline is the one path that falls through to `pmacs.project.detect`,
    whose walk includes `.git`. A document at the filesystem root now
    roots at `/`.
  * `latex_marker_in`'s join is guarded for `dir == "/"`, which this
    change makes reachable for the first time; the naive form produces
    `//name`, the one spelling POSIX leaves implementation-defined.

Two new pins plus a strengthened one, 16 tests:

  * `two_chapters_share_one_server_under_a_root_search_boundary` — the
    defect end to end through ATTACH, not on the predicate, because the
    symptom is two servers rather than a wrong string. Restoring the old
    comparison fails exactly this test, with the two-server output.
  * `latex_root_walk_stops_at_the_search_boundary` now asserts BOTH
    directions. "Stops at the boundary" is also satisfied by a walk that
    never runs — which is precisely what a `/` boundary produced — so the
    hermeticity property (R8's shape: a stray `latexmkrc` above the
    tempdir must stay invisible) is now paired with the walk still
    climbing to, and examining, the boundary directory itself.
  * `latex_root_for_a_document_at_the_filesystem_root_is_the_root`.

Also corrects `docs/active-work.md`: §3 no longer awaits a revision 3 —
`b5eaf27` IS revision 3 — and the lane entry now records that boundary
handling has been this resolver's interesting part twice, so a reader
weighing whether to trust it knows where to look first.

Gates: ALL GREEN via `./scripts/gate --acceptance lsp_latex_acceptance`.
`/tmp` on this machine is a near-full tmpfs and three grep tests fail
there with `QuotaExceeded`; the green run used
`TMPDIR=/home/jeans/build/pmacs-gate-tmp/lsp-latex`.

feat(lsp): LaTeX via texlab, with a document-root resolver
Framing: `docs/lsp-language-coverage-framing.md` (revision 2, §3 and
§6). One `pmacs.lsp.config.latex` entry — command `texlab`, args none,
a function-valued `root`, and deliberately nothing else.

STEP ZERO: the §3 caveat, discharged by observation.

Revision 2 marked marker 1 (`.texlabroot`) UNVERIFIED and blocking:
only texlab's version and CLI had been checked, and the CLI exposes
just `run` / `inverse-search`. Driving a minimal LSP client against
`texlab run` by hand, plus reading texlab's own source at the exact
installed tag, settles it — and corrects the premise underneath it.

`.texlabroot` IS a real marker. `crates/distro/src/language.rs` at
v5.25.1 maps `.texlabroot`/`texlabroot` -> Root, `Tectonic.toml` ->
Tectonic, `.latexmkrc`/`latexmkrc` -> Latexmkrc, and
`ProjectRoot::walk_and_find` (`crates/base-db/src/deps/root.rs`) walks
ancestors testing all three, innermost wins. So the shipped marker set
is texlab's own rather than a plausible-looking guess, and marker 1
stays.

But texlab CANNOT apply that walk to rescue a root pmacs gets wrong.
Each arm of `walk_and_find` searches `workspace.iter()` — documents
already loaded — and the workspace is built from the folders the CLIENT
supplies. Live sessions confirm it: with `rootUri` at a `chapters/`
subdirectory, no marker above it (`.texlabroot` included) widened
texlab's view, and its dependency graph never reached the parent
document; with `rootUri` at the marker directory the parent resolved,
marker present or not. texlab honours the root it is handed and never
corrects a too-narrow one.

That inverts the significance of the resolver rather than weakening it:
whatever `config.latex.root` returns *is* the project scope. It is the
whole value of the lane, not a nicety.

Also observed, because the entry depends on it: bare `texlab` serves
LSP over stdio — `initialize` returns `TexLab 5.25.1` with no
subcommand — so `args = {}` is right and `run` is not needed.

WHY `.git` IS EXCLUDED, AND WHY THAT IS NOT AN OMISSION.

texlab wants the document root; a thesis inside a monorepo must not get
the monorepo. The subtlety is that leaving `.git` out of the marker
list does not achieve this on its own. `project_root_for` falls through
to `pmacs.project.detect` when a resolver returns nil, and that walk
does include `.git` — so a resolver that declined on a markerless file
would hand texlab the repository root by the back door. The resolver
therefore never declines for a file that has a directory: no marker
means the file's own directory, which is also framing marker 4. The
acceptance pins this end to end through attach, not just on the
resolver's return, and asserts in the same fixture that the shared
detector really would have answered the repository root.

NO FILETYPE MAPPINGS, per revision 2 §2 — verified, not inherited.
`src/syntax.rs` already declares `name: "latex"` with `extensions:
["tex", "latex", "sty", "cls"]`, and grammar-extension detection sits
ahead of the LSP filetype map in `detect_buffer_language`
(`syntax.lua`). A `.tex` buffer already resolves to `latex`. The suite
asserts both halves — the extensions resolve, and `pmacs.lsp.filetypes`
is empty for them — so a later "helpful" addition cannot be mistaken
for the thing that made attach work.

Q#LX1: no `settings`, no `init_options`. Build-on-save and
forward-search are both opinionated and forward-search needs a
configured viewer.

Fixtures bound detection with `pmacs.project.set_search_boundary` and
assert the boundary took — R8's hazard is exactly this fixture's shape,
and one test pins the walk stopping at the boundary directly. Attach
fixtures use `pmacs_fake_lsp`, and the missing-server fixture an
asserted-absent path: texlab is installed on this machine, so relying
on either its presence or its absence would behave differently here and
in CI.

Verification: fourteen tests, one per §6 bullet plus the boundary and
decline cases. Seven mutations each fail the suite — resolver declining
on no marker (6 tests), no marker walk (4), a redundant `filetypes.tex`
(1), boundary ignored (1), `io.open` truthiness so a directory counts
as a marker (1), marker set narrowed (4), command renamed with
opinionated settings added (1).

feat(view): horizontal scroll, text and decorations together
Stage 4 of the QoL arc, framing revision 4 (approved). Under
`truncate`, text past the right edge was UNREACHABLE; moving the cursor
now brings it into view. Automatic only — no commands, no bindings, no
new interaction island (Q#HS2).

THE CONTRACT. `view_left` is an unsnapped per-window display column
(Q#HS7(a)), and each line derives its own effective edge during the
walk it already performs from column 0. Starting at 0 is not laziness:
tab expansion depends on the absolute column from the line start, so a
walk beginning at the edge would put tab stops in the wrong place. The
walk stays line-absolute and only the emit translates.

Where the edge bisects a wide glyph on a given line (Q#HS7(c′)), its
trailing cell paints a styled BLANK rather than a `Continuation` — that
glyph means "the cell before me is a wide glyph's head", and here that
cell is off-screen, so emitting it would name a cell nobody painted.
The mapping designates that cell to the glyph's START byte, which keeps
`byte_at_place` total over visible cells and makes the character the
user scrolled toward clickable. Tabs keep FORWARD rounding (Q#HS7(c″))
— preserved, not chosen.

DECORATIONS TRAVEL WITH THE TEXT. The first version of this commit
translated the base glyph walk and nothing else, which split the frame
in half: at `view_left = 10` a glyph from source column 10 painted at
screen column 0 while its syntax style, diagnostic underline, search
wash and `BufferStyleOverlay` span painted at screen column 10 — or
vanished. Decorations drifting off the characters they describe,
silently, and only once a window had been scrolled.

Every such site carried the same two lines (`start_col.min(max_cols)`,
`end_col.min(max_cols)`), correct only while the left edge was pinned
at zero. `Viewport::visible_cols` is now the one rule all FIVE adopters
share — syntax/LSP styling, diagnostic underlines, search washes,
`BufferStyleOverlay`, and the selection painter — so a future decorator
inherits the translation instead of re-deriving it. It also subsumes
the old `end_col <= start_col` guard rather than sitting beside it.
`StyleSpanOverlay` and `VirtualCellOverlay` are deliberately untouched:
they are documented as viewport-relative, so translating them would be
the mirror defect.

The selection painter was nearly a sixth site with its own copy of the
rule, which I justified by a width it supposedly needed and the
viewport lacked. That was FALSE — the render viewport's
`cell_size.cols` is already `rect.size.cols - gutter_w` and its origin
already sits past the gutter. It now takes that same viewport and drops
its `rect`/`gutter_w` parameters entirely. A canonical rule with one
honest exception is not canonical.

The selection painter had the same defect with a worse failure mode: it
asked `pos_to_display` through the LIVE context, which returns `None`
for a position left of the edge, so a selection beginning off-screen
and reaching into view took `continue` and painted NOTHING. That is the
common shape, not an edge case — select rightward from column 0 past
the window width and the view scrolls with the cursor.

TWO THINGS THE TESTS FOUND, both in `pos_to_display`. My framing note
said a caret sits between characters so never lands inside a glyph;
true for the caret, false for the DESIGNATION direction — the glyph's
start byte must map to its visible trailing cell, so `screen_col` needs
the straddle rule and not a bare subtraction. And the `take == 0` early
return short-circuited the translation entirely, so byte 0 looked
visible at every offset.

`view_left` is inert under `wrap` BY CONSTRUCTION —
`LayoutCtx::effective_left` and `Viewport::left_edge` return 0 while
wrapping — rather than by every caller remembering.

Persisted per leaf at DESKTOP_VERSION 1 (Q#HS5) with both approval
conditions: `#[serde(default)]` and a literal v1 JSON fixture omitting
the field, hand-written because a generated one would gain the field
and prove nothing.

Also: `view_left: window.view_left` in the render viewport, not a
literal 0. My mechanical fill put 0 there and it is EXACTLY the
`aa3cd4d` defect — coordinates and the indicator following the scroll
while the painter stays pinned at column 0.

BITE, per clause. Forcing `bisected = false` fails the multi-line
straddle witness; dropping the backward designation fails the
round-trip witness; removing `#[serde(default)]` fails the v1 fixture;
pinning `visible_cols` to an absolute clamp fails all three decorator
witnesses; restoring the selection painter's live-context lookup fails
the off-screen-start selection witness. Each alone. And with selection
now reading the shared helper, pinning `visible_cols` to an absolute
clamp fails the selection witnesses TOO — which is the check that the
duplication is really gone rather than merely reworded.

One unrelated red, logged as R7 in ci-red-signatures.md — the first
this session with a COMPLETE signature, so a matchable row rather than
a U note. `pmacs-gpu`'s managed-retry attach hit a BrokenPipe once
under full-sweep load and did not reproduce (6 isolated runs plus a
clean 113-target sweep). Per the rerun rule that is intermittence only,
and the row explicitly does not claim harmlessness. Not attributed to
this lane: Stage 4 touches no `pmacs-gpu` file and adds no wire
surface.

Gates: fmt; clippy --workspace --all-targets -D warnings, both
configurations; `cargo test --workspace --no-fail-fast -- --skip
basedpyright` 113 targets exit 0, and the same with --features crdt,
113 targets exit 0; git diff --check. No protocol change, so no version
bump and no protocol-bump matrix.

fix(linewrap): the toggle wrote the global layer, not the buffer
ui.line-wrap is buffer-local, and the toggle was built from
pmacs.config.get(name) and pmacs.config.set(name, value) --- both of
which address the GLOBAL layer. The registry's buffer-local surface is
get(name, buf) and set_local(buf, name, value), and the command used
neither.

The result was wrong in both directions at once, which is why it needed
two witnesses rather than one. In a buffer pinned to truncate, the
toggle would read "wrap" from the global layer, decide the next mode is
truncate, and leave that buffer exactly as it was --- while writing
truncate globally and flipping every buffer that had no override of its
own. The command that changes nothing here and everything elsewhere.

Now resolves the buffer ONCE and uses it for both calls. Once matters:
resolving twice would be a narrower version of the same bug, since the
active buffer can change between two calls.

Two witnesses in a new acceptance suite, and both bite against the code
review rejected --- restoring the global-layer toggle fails both while
the default and enum tests keep passing, which is exactly how it
shipped. the_toggle_moves_this_buffer_and_leaves_the_other_alone covers
the leak outward: a second buffer and the global layer must be
untouched. a_pinned_buffer_toggles_from_its_own_value covers the miss
inward: a buffer whose value differs from global must toggle from ITS
value.

Note on the second buffer: there is no Lua buffer-switch, so "the
other" is a buffer that exists but is not shown. That is the case that
matters anyway --- a global write reaches every buffer without an
override, shown or not.

Gates: fmt, workspace clippy -D warnings, diff --check, --lib 1916/0,
line_wrap_acceptance 4/4.

feat: ui.line-wrap, resolved once and told to both frontends
The setting exists now, and both frontends honor it. This is the commit
that turns the stage on: the grid renderer, the coordinate mapping, and
the GPU were all built and tested against a mode nothing could set.

ui.line-wrap is buffer-local, an enum of wrap and truncate, defaulting
to wrap. A closed set rather than a string, so an unknown value is
impossible rather than handled --- and so adding "word" later is
additive. It lives in ui., not editing.: editing.* is buffer-editing
behavior, this changes only how text is SHOWN, and the two existing
ui.* settings carry a gpu- prefix to mark frontend-specific ones, so
the absence of a prefix is what says "both frontends".

Resolved exactly once. The render loop reads it per window per frame
and records it on the window; the viewport is built FROM that, and
Window::layout_ctx hands the same answer to all twenty coordinate call
sites. Nothing re-resolves, so two callers cannot disagree about one
buffer. The earlier write-back from viewport to window is removed as
circular now that the resolution precedes the viewport.

Semantic frontends are told over LineWrapFacts, gated at v22 in the
producer and again in the daemon write loop. The dedup key is the
(buffer, wrap) PAIR, and that is the whole design rather than a
micro-optimisation: font size is global, so caching it by value is
right, but wrap mode is buffer-local, so a value-keyed cache stays
silent when the user switches from a truncating buffer to a wrapping
one --- a real mode change with no config event behind it.
a_buffer_switch_re_emits_the_wrap_mode pins that, and it bites: keying
the cache on the mode alone fails it while every other test still
passes, which is exactly how the bug would have shipped.

Two existing tests moved, and both moved for the right reason rather
than because they were stale. The semantic allowlist gains the variant,
and the first-frame count goes 7 to 8 --- the second is really an
assertion that the attach trigger works: a semantic frontend that is
not told on its first frame never learns the setting at all.

Also ships ui.toggle-line-wrap, and its status line says the quiet part
--- turning wrapping off makes text past the right edge unreachable
until horizontal scrolling lands in Stage 4. That belongs where a user
sees it, not only in the framing.

Gates: fmt, workspace clippy -D warnings, diff --check, --lib 1916/0,
crdt 2101/0, pmacs-gpu 224/0, tab_width 2/0, folding 21/0, gui_zoom
15/15, full_grid_resync 1/1.

docs(zoom): the ties both round up, they do not oppose
Review caught the explanation of the 0.015 round-trip break, not the
fix. Three copies of it claimed 16.015 rounds up while 16.005 rounds
down --- "opposite directions". Both round UP.

Verified rather than reasoned about: at the point the quantizer sees
them, 16.015 * 100 is exactly 1601.5 and 16.005 * 100 is exactly
1600.5. Both are exact ties, and half-up sends both away from zero.

So the mechanism is not opposed rounding, it is that half-up is not
symmetric under negation. Rounding up on the way in adds half a
centi-pixel; rounding up on the way out adds another, so the two
errors ACCUMULATE instead of cancelling, and 16.00 -> 16.02 -> 16.01
ends one centi-pixel high. "Opposite directions" would have predicted
them cancelling, which is the reverse of what happens.

Corrected in all three places that carried it: the module comment, the
test's doc comment, and framing section 3.2.

Comments only --- no behavior change, and the witness values in the
tests were already right. Zoom suite still 15/15.

fix(zoom): quantize the step, or the round-trip guarantee is false
THE BOUNDS WERE NOT SUFFICIENT AND THE TEST COULD NOT SEE IT.
`ConfigKind::Number` validates finiteness and bounds and nothing else,
and `on_change` listeners are notified after a value is stored — they
cannot veto. So 0.015 is a perfectly settable step and nothing in the
registry can refuse it.

Used raw it breaks the framed guarantee, because each operation rounds
independently and 16.015 and 16.005 round in OPPOSITE directions:

  step 0.015:  16.00 -> 16.02 -> 16.01     broken
  step 0.37 :  16.00 -> 16.37 -> 16.00     holds

The existing round-trip test used 0.37 — centi-pixel representable — so
it passed against the defect. Bitten now: with the raw value the new
case lands on 16.01, while the 0.37 case still passes, which is exactly
why it needed to be its own witness.

QUANTIZED WHERE USED, not at `set`. Sizes live in integer hundredths
end to end and `validate_font_size` already range-checks the original
and then rounds to the nearest hundredth; rounding the step is that
same operation one level up. A step of 0.015 is not a finer step in
this domain, it is 0.02 written imprecisely.

Enforcing at set time was considered and rejected: the registry cannot
express a precision constraint, and a validating wrapper is bypassed by
a direct `pmacs.config.set` — the seam `autosave` already documents
about its own interval_ms wrapper. Quantizing at the point of use
cannot be bypassed. Both descriptions say "quantized to hundredths", so
`describe-setting` shows it.

The framing header also still said "proposed, awaiting approval" while
the lane and this PR recorded it approved and implemented. Revision 5,
with §3.2 recording the gap and why quantization rather than rejection
closes it.

feat(zoom): GUI zoom over the font preference that already existed
Ctrl +/- had no effect whatsoever in the GPU frontend. Stage 1 (#219)
fixed what zoom did to the TUI; this is the other half.

NO RENDERING WORK. FontMetrics::scale already derived every GUI
dimension — code size, line height, status band, divider, menu rows,
minibuffer dropdown, gutter advance — and apply_font_facts already
re-metriced all seven buffers in one transaction. This drives the
preference that existed: two settings, three commands, and a restore.

Q#Z1 = (c). Relative zoom needs an origin and the daemon is built never
to know one — font_pref.rs is explicit that it "never learns metrics,
advances, or what resolves". Hardcoding 16.0 would put a pixel constant
on the daemon side; always sending a size would destroy the `None`
state for everyone who never zooms. A configured base is the only
option where the daemon still infers nothing, and the untouched path
stays byte-identical.

THREE THINGS REVIEW CAUGHT THAT REVISION 1 HAD WRONG.

Q#Z3 was not implementable as framed. `keymap_stack::Scope` is
Buffer | Mode | Global and carries no frontend identity, so "bind on
GPU frontends only" does not exist; and FrontendEvent has no
command-invocation variant, so the GPU cannot ask for a command by name
either. A global binding would capture the chord in the TUI and take
away the terminal's own zoom — the very thing the user is pressing it
for. Commands ship; the binding waits on capability-aware keymap
resolution, which is now a named follow-on rather than something
smuggled in here.

The restore seam did not exist. Builtins and init.lua both run BEFORE
install_state_dirs, so a pmacs.state.read at module load returns
nothing, always. saveplace and recentf never meet this because both
read lazily inside functions; zoom must apply with no user action,
which makes it this project's first eager state consumer. Restore lives
at the end of install_state_dirs — by definition the moment state
becomes readable, so it cannot be ordered wrongly and a future third
startup path gets it without knowing it had to ask.

Every size write clobbered the family. set_font replaces both fields
unconditionally, so { size = n } alone silently cleared a configured
family until restart.

BITTEN, THREE WAYS. Dropping family preservation fails 3 tests.
Reverting to the framing's own first parser `^(%d+)$` fails 4 including
the seam restore — it anchors to end-of-subject and rejects the
newline-terminated file the writer emits, which is the contradiction
review caught in the framing before it reached code. Hardcoding the
16.0 origin fails the base test.

Also recorded: a loaded crdt run failed two m6_1 PTY tests with
`stty -a output was: ""`. That is R4/R6's empty-content readiness
family, and it means the readiness-helper audit's scope is wider than
three wait_for_file copies under tests/ — src/process.rs's own tests
carry the shape. Undiagnosed, load-sensitive, green isolated and on a
quiet full run; a scope note for that lane, not a registry row, since
the registry judges red CI runs and these were local.

fix(listview): ids must also be unique and not NaN
The scalar contract said "identity" and enforced only "scalar", so two
ways to hold an id that is not one survived.

NaN passes `type(x) == "number"` and then errors at
`p.collapsed[row.id]` with "table index is NaN" — the one scalar Lua
accepts as a number and refuses as a key. Bitten with the check
removed, it reports exactly that, from inside listview, naming no row.

DUPLICATES do not merely collide. Every lookup here — `line_of_id`, and
toggle's scan for the row index — resolves an id to the FIRST row
bearing it, so selecting the second such row toggles the first and
re-seats the cursor onto it: a stray jump with nothing pointing at the
id. Bitten with the check removed, nothing is raised at all.

Both are enforced in `check_ids`, where rows already enter, so the
error names the offending row (and, for a duplicate, both of them)
instead of surfacing as a low-level error or a wrong jump later. The
error text says why, not just what, since the reason is not guessable
from the rule.

fix(listview): item was load-bearing, and the id contract was two contracts
TWO REVIEW FINDINGS, both real, and neither reachable from the existing
tree tests.

1. `item` WAS EFFECTIVELY REQUIRED. `render` writes `line_to_item[n] =
row.item`, so that map is SPARSE whenever a row omits the optional
`item` — and `seat_cursor` took `#` of it. A display-only tree (a
grouping node with `on_visit` unused, which the API explicitly allows)
made that length 0, so the cursor never left the header, TAB found no
row, and folding was unusable. It now counts visible rows explicitly.
The old tests could not catch this because every one of them supplies
`item`: under the reverted fix `tr_5` fails `left: 0 / right: 1` while
`tr_1` still passes.

2. THE ID CONTRACT WAS TWO CONTRACTS. The docs said "opaque, compared
by equality". Selection does compare with `==`, honouring `__eq` — but
collapse state stores ids as TABLE KEYS, and Lua indexes tables by raw
identity, consulting no metamethod. So a table id would satisfy one
half and quietly fail the other: after a refresh minted fresh id
tables, the cursor would be restored and the fold silently lost. A
divergence that shows up as a missing fold, arbitrarily later, with
nothing pointing back at the id.

Narrowed rather than generalized. Equality-aware collapse lookup is the
alternative and it is worse: `hidden_by_ancestor` runs per row, so it
turns a linear render quadratic to support a key type no consumer has
asked for. The contract is now the one both halves can honour — string
or number, compared by value — enforced by `check_ids` where rows enter
(`open` and `refresh`), so a bad id is a named error at the call site
instead of a lost fold much later. Q#TR3 in the framing records the
narrowing and why.

Verified: fmt, clippy, diff-check, --lib 1897/0, crdt 2082/0, listview

fix(listview): flat panels keep their TAB, and a selection test that bites
FOUR REVIEW FINDINGS, and the first two were right about the tests.

1. THE SELECTION ACCEPTANCE WAS VACUOUS. `tr_1` toggles the selected
root, which sits on line 1 before and after collapsing — so it passes
unchanged under the line-based re-seating that id-keyed re-seating was
built to replace. It proves collapse hides descendants; it proves
nothing about selection. `tr_4` adds the case that discriminates: an
`on_refresh` inserts a row ABOVE the selected node, so the node moves,
and the assertion is that selection follows the NODE. Bitten by
restoring `seat_cursor(p, saved)`: `tr_4` fails with left "  kid2",
right "sibling", while old `tr_1` passes — which is the finding,
reproduced.

The substantive assertion is deliberately ordered first. It was second
at one point, behind the fixture check that the node moved, and a
regression then reported as "the insert must move the selected node" —
reading like a broken fixture rather than a broken re-seat.

2. FLAT PANELS WERE NOT BEHAVIOUR-IDENTICAL. `bind_local_keymap` binds
TAB on every listview, so a depthless panel that previously fell
through to the global binding — and to Q#P3's read-only intercept —
began answering "listview: no node here". `listview.toggle` now
delegates to `buffer.tab` when no row carries an id, restoring the
prior path exactly; leaf feedback is kept for panels that really are
trees. `tr_3` asserts the absence of both tree messages rather than
merely that the panel still renders.

3 and 4 are documentation. The lane now lists 38e94dc, and no longer
says the PR is held "pending review of the documentation" that the same
commit supplied — it is held pending the decision to open it. §20 said
to BUILD the tree primitive while §14 already carried ◐; it now says
what actually remains, which is adoption: dired's `i` is the next
constraint source, DAP's variables view is why this was worth building
before them.

ONE RED, CLASSIFIED RATHER THAN RERUN AWAY. The crdt lib gate failed
`composition_overhead_under_ten_percent` at 30.7%. It is an incumbent
handoff hazard, and the branch cannot reach it — the diff versus main
touches no src/, no crate, no manifest. Alone it ran 5/5 green at
-0.6% to +0.2%; the next full run was green. Recorded in the handoff as
a MEASUREMENT, not a cause: five isolated greens establish that the
ratio is nowhere near the threshold when alone, not that contention is
what pushed it over. Not a registry row either — that file judges red
CI runs, and this was local.

feat(listview): the tree primitive — depth, collapse, and identity
COHERENCE.md §14's last missing workbench primitive. Q#TR1-TR4 decided
at review; this implements them.

EXTENDS LISTVIEW rather than adding a treeview (Q#TR1). A separate
primitive would either duplicate ~200 lines of panel discipline —
Q#GB18 handle identity, Q#GB13 `<2>` disambiguation, the read-only
intercept, `prev` capture, the quit chain, generated-buffer writes — or
require extracting them from a shipped primitive first, which is the
riskier change. Rows gain OPTIONAL `depth` and `id`; absent, they behave
exactly as before, which is what keeps the three flat consumers
untouched.

THE OBSERVATION THAT MADE THIS CHEAP: collapse only ever HIDES rows and
never changes a surviving row's depth. Combined with consumers emitting
parents before children in document order, a node's descendants are a
CONTIGUOUS RUN of following rows with greater depth. So collapse is
filtering an existing array, not re-deriving one — the primitive never
calls the consumer to re-render a fold, and pre-rendered indentation
stays correct. That is why `text` remains consumer-supplied (Q#TR4),
which also sidesteps the future conflict with dired's fixed-width
`_layout` column contract.

It is also why a panel with NO `on_refresh` can still fold. The anchor
consumer is exactly that panel: the outline has no refresh at all
(framing §1.5a), so a design requiring the consumer to re-supply rows on
every fold would not have worked for the only consumer that exists.

SELECTION IS RE-SEATED BY ID, NOT BY LINE (Q#TR3). A fold inserts or
removes rows above the cursor, so a line-keyed restore lands on an
unrelated node — the defect `listview.refresh` already had in milder
form. `id` is consumer-supplied and compared by equality; the primitive
never derives one. The outline uses `line:col`, unique per document and
stable across re-render, rather than the `::` parent chain, which
collides on overloads and same-named siblings — precisely where a stale
expansion would reattach to the wrong node.

`has_children` reads the FULL row array rather than the rendered subset.
A collapsed node's children are absent from `line_to_row` by
construction, so asking the rendered view would answer "no" for every
collapsed node and make expanding impossible.

TAB ON A LEAF REPORTS rather than silently doing nothing. The outline's
`g` is already a dead binding — bound, dispatched, no feedback — and
this primitive must not add a second one.

Tests: fold hides ALL descendants while the node and its SIBLING
survive; state and selection survive a re-render; a leaf reports; and a
depthless panel is unchanged by TAB. The fold test is bite-verified —
disabling only the ancestor filter fails it on "descendants hidden".

Verified: fmt, diff-check, clippy with and without crdt, --lib 1896, m4
149, listview 21/21, and the full serialized luajit sweep at 3453
passed / 0 failed. That count reconciles exactly: main is 3450 (Stage
3's 3449 sweep predated its capability-fallback pin) plus these three
tests.

review round 1: the crdt suite Stage 3 missed, and two stale explanations
P1 — compile_mode_crdt_acceptance was never revised. Its three
`compile.run` fixtures still omitted `display`, so the flip placed
output in the panel with `select = false`, the source buffer stayed
active, and `adopt_next_buffer` timed out waiting for a snapshot that
only arrives via the ACTIVE-BUFFER-FOLLOW path. Its subject is CRDT
convergence of a generated buffer, not placement, so it takes the
explicit opt-out — and the reason is recorded at `adopt_next_buffer`,
the helper that actually depends on it, rather than at each call site.

WHY MY OWN VERIFICATION MISSED IT, which matters more than the fix: the
Stage 3 census and every sweep I ran used `--features luajit` WITHOUT
`crdt`, so no crdt-gated suite was ever exercised. The census was
therefore blind to an entire configuration by construction, in exactly
the way #209 exists to prevent. The CI crdt job — added by that lane —
is what caught this, three days after it landed.

Baselined rather than assumed. A worktree at the branch base 21de0b2
sweeps 3715 passed / 0 failed under `luajit,crdt` with
PMACS_REQUIRE_GPU=1; the branch with this fix sweeps 3715 / 0. Identical.

An earlier branch sweep, taken before this fix, reported SEVENTY
failures across THIRTEEN suites. Twelve of those suites — m5_5,
gpu_invocation, gpu_initial_target, m10_11, vterm_stage3 and the rest —
are daemon, socket or GPU suites, and all of them recovered by fixing
three compile tests. The likeliest reading is that the failing
compile-crdt runs leaked daemon or PTY processes that poisoned every
subsequent socket-based suite; what is ESTABLISHED is narrower and
still useful: baseline green, branch green with the fix, and the
collateral confined to process-spawning suites. Count failures, not
causes — the same lesson this stage already learned once, at a
different layer.

Also of note: CI reported only 3 failures because `cargo test` halts
after a failing binary. The workflow does not pass `--no-fail-fast`, so
CI under-reports a multi-suite break exactly as my first census did.

P2 — builtin/runtime/compile.lua's recompile comment still said `_last`
stores only cmdline/cwd. This PR deliberately stores `display` too, so
an explicit opt-out survives replay. Corrected, with the
`display_omitted` arm's remaining purpose stated rather than implied.

P2 — the framing's §7 step 2 still called the resolver extraction
"provably behaviour-preserving", contradicting §1.6b's own record of the
intentional non-string normalization. It is DEFAULT-PRESERVING WITH ONE
INTENTIONAL NORMALIZATION, and now says so where a reader following the
branch plan will hit it.

Verified: fmt, diff-check, compile_mode_crdt 3/3, compile_mode 73/73,
and the full crdt sweep at 3715/0 against a measured baseline of 3715/0.

feat(panel): flip the adopter default — Arc 7's last step
Stage 3 steps 3 and 4. Omitting `display` now resolves to the PANEL for
listview, compile and terminal; dired keeps `"current"`, passed
explicitly to the shared resolver. Per-adopter `select` per Q#BP12:
listview true, compile false (passive output must not steal document
focus), terminal true.

The census predicted 37 failures across 5 suites and the flip produced
exactly that — same suites, same per-suite counts. The measurement was a
prediction, not an estimate, which is what the inverted step order was
for. Final sweep: 3449 passed / 0 failed against a 3447 baseline, the
+2 being new pins.

THE CENSUS COUNTED FAILURES, NOT CAUSES. Thirteen listview failures had
ONE root cause: a panel is derived-hidden while frame geometry is
unknown, and listview_acceptance never declared any — it never needed to
while listview defaulted to the current window. One helper took it from
13 to 2. The same applied to m4 and vterm_stage2. Geometry is
authoritative state and a grid frontend's real frame size IS its
declaration; the panel suites have always said so.

THREE DEFECTS THE FLIP EXPOSED, each fixed rather than tested around:

1. The OUTLINE panel's `on_visit` used `pmacs.window.switch_buffer` —
   the RAW switch, which replaces the buffer in the ACTIVE window. That
   was harmless while the outline opened into a document window. Once
   the panel became the default the active window WAS the outline panel,
   so RET clobbered the panel with the source and left nothing for `M-,`
   to return to. The references panel was migrated to `display_file`
   when the arc landed; the outline was missed because nothing exercised
   it from a panel until now. Q#BP11c names this exact corruption, and
   both the outline and compile tests now assert `M-,` FOCUSES the
   panel rather than cloning its buffer into the document — an
   assertion the previous one could not distinguish.

2. `pmacs.compile._last` stored only `{cmdline, cwd}`, so a recompile
   reached `start_run` with no `display` and took the new default. A
   user who ran `compile.run{display="current"}` would be moved into a
   panel the moment they pressed `g`. An opt-out that reverts on the
   next recompile is not an opt-out; `display` is stored and replayed,
   with nil kept as nil so an omitted value still resolves to the
   default rather than freezing at the first run's resolution.

3. `opts.display` on a nil `opts` — my own regression, introduced by
   fix 2 and caught by `journey_acceptance`, which is exactly what that
   ratchet is for.

COMPILE'S CHORDS ARE NOW PANEL-LOCAL, and that is a contract rather than
an accidental reachability loss. Every compile chord is bound
`scope = "buffer"`, so with `select = false` none dispatch from the
document — `C-c C-k` included. `acc34` pins it, and pins that
`M-x compile.kill` still reaches the running slot from anywhere via its
`or compile_slot()` fallback. A global chord is a command-surface
decision and belongs in its own framing.

TEST CLASSIFICATION WAS PER TEST, NOT PER SUITE. Two neighbouring
compile tests land on opposite sides: acc15 (RET-visits-error,
jump-back) asserts the NEW default, while acc16 (n/p within compile
output) genuinely needs the buffer selected and says so. compile's
suite-wide helper opts out because ITS subject is compile-BUFFER
behaviour; the placement-subject tests use a second helper that takes
the default. Every opt-out states why. Nothing was mass-added to make a
suite green.

s1_12's two concerns are split as directed: it keeps its Q#GB18
name-keyed-identity bite with explicit `display = "current"`, isolating
the buffer-level `p.prev` skip rule, while a new `s3_1` pins the
side-window presentation chain — C → B → A → delete, ending at the
document with the wrapper collapsed. The mechanisms are complementary:
presentation history chains in the side slot; `p.prev` prevents
raw-switch and capability-fallback loops.

Verified: fmt, diff-check, clippy with and without crdt, --lib 1896,
--lib --features crdt 2081, pmacs-protocol 19, m4 149, required GPU 221,
and the full serialized sweep at 3449/0.

refactor(panel): one shared rule for the adopter `display` vocabulary
Stage 3 step 2 (Q#S3-1). DEFAULT-PRESERVING WITH ONE INTENTIONAL
NORMALIZATION — not "behaviour-preserving", which would be too broad a
claim. Every adopter keeps its current default, and the full serialized
suite is 3447 passed / 0 failed with ZERO suites differing from the
pre-change baseline. But invalid-input behaviour DID move, deliberately,
and that is pinned rather than asserted in prose.

Before this, FOUR adopters validated the same three-value vocabulary in
four places: Rust for the terminal, and hand-written Lua copies in
listview.lua, compile.lua and dired.lua, each carrying its own copy of
the error string. `parse_adopter_placement` read like the shared parser
its doc comment implied but had exactly one caller. Four copies of one
rule is how the next adopter gets it subtly wrong, and the next adopter
is DAP.

`resolve_adopter_display(operation, raw, default)` now owns exactly
three things: the vocabulary, the error text, and the default policy.
Reachable from Lua as the internal seam `pmacs.window._resolve_display`.

THE DEFAULT IS A PARAMETER, NOT A CONSTANT, and that is load-bearing
rather than stylistic. listview/compile/terminal will resolve omission
to the panel in step 3; DIRED MUST NOT, because
`pmacs.path.set_directory_handler` calls it with `{ dest = dest }` and
no `display` key at all — a flipped default would open `pmacs .` in a
bottom panel. Passing the default in makes dired's exemption visible at
its call site instead of hidden in a divergent copy.

TERMINAL'S `window` MUTUAL-EXCLUSION STAYS IN ITS OWN WRAPPER. Only the
terminal accepts a `window` id and only it must reject `window` combined
with `display = "panel"`. A helper pretending the four parsers were
identical would be its own defect.

THE NORMALIZATION, DECIDED AND PINNED. Terminal read
`get::<Option<String>>("display")?`, so a non-string value raised mlua's
TYPE error before reaching any custom message, while the Lua copies
stringified it into their own. Nothing pinned either behaviour — every
existing assertion passes an unknown STRING, which takes the same path
under both designs and therefore could not have caught a regression
here. The custom error wins because it names the legal vocabulary; the
value is rendered by TYPE ALONE (`unknown display (integer)`) so the
message cannot imply a string was passed.

Pinned at the terminal entry point in acc19 — the one adopter whose
behaviour changed — asserting the shared error AND that nothing is
created. The type SPELLING is deliberately not pinned: Lua 5.4 says
`integer` where LuaJIT has no integer subtype, so asserting either
literal would pass on one CI flavor and fail on the other. Verified
46/46 under both.

COMPILE NEEDED AN EXPLICIT OMISSION CAPTURE, and finding that out is
what this step is for. The resolver collapses omission into its default,
but compile's recompile gate distinguishes them: it fires on OMISSION
only, never on an explicit `display = "current"`, which is the
documented opt-out and must reach the raw switch even when the previous
run was panel-placed. Resolving first and testing `== "current"`
afterwards would have silently merged the two and broken the opt-out
with every test still green. `display_omitted` is captured before the
resolver call and the gate keys on it.

Levi Neuwirth 5cc1a83583 fix(help): forwarders must work programmatically, not only from M-x
CI caught this on all four test legs. The forwarder body called
`pmacs.command.invoke_interactive`, which raises when the alias is
reached through `pmacs.command.invoke` — and
`tests/config_registry_acceptance.rs` does exactly that, three times.

The acceptance pin passed throughout because it drives the M-x path,
which is the path the framing spent three review rounds getting right.
Being right about one entry point is not the same as covering the
command, and a rename touches every caller of the old name regardless
of how it is reached.

Plain `invoke` is also the correct semantics rather than merely the
working one: the interactive-command boundary is rotated once, by
whatever entry point the user actually used, for the name they actually
typed. Rotating again on the inner call would record a second boundary
for a command the user never invoked.

Adds `d8c`, which invokes both forwarders programmatically. Bitten by
restoring `invoke_interactive`: the new pin fails alongside the three
config-registry tests that found it.

Levi Neuwirth 44bd2201e7 feat(help): the discovery command family — P4 Stage 1
Implements `docs/discovery-stage1-command-family-framing.md` (approved
at revision 6). `COHERENCE.md` §5 graded discoverability "substrate
without surface": the registries already carried descriptions, source
locations and reverse key lookup, and almost none of it was reachable.

Eleven commands under one `help.*` prefix, so typing `help` at M-x
surfaces the whole family. Nine are new; `editor.describe-command` and
`editor.describe-setting` are renamed in, with the old names retained
as forwarders so nothing documented breaks.

No Rust. Every command renders data `pmacs.describe.*`,
`pmacs.keymap.list()`, `pmacs.command.list()` and `pmacs.config.list()`
already return, and `describe-setting`'s completion source is a Lua
function via `CompletionSource::Custom`, which needed no binding work
either — correcting a comment in `default.lua` that claimed `source`
was a fixed Rust-side vocabulary.

`apropos` matches by substring, not fuzzy: `fuzzy_score` is
subsequence-based and descriptions are long sentences, so fuzzy would
match nearly every command.

Two disciplines the file keeps. Every command renders through the
public `pmacs.editor._show_help`, which buys one owner for the shared
`*help*` policy — reuse-by-name, wholesale replacement, `q`, and the
foreign-buffer hazard. It does NOT buy a one-site migration to
`src/help.rs`, which has no renderer for settings, lists or apropos; so
rendering is a named per-subject function, and the future Rust work is
enumerated per subject rather than discovered per call site.

The seam-counting pin earned its place immediately: the two renamed
commands were still calling the file-local `show_help_text`, so the
funnel was fiction for exactly the two commands that predate it. They
now call the public seam, with a comment saying why the local is not
used from the same file.

Moves `help` out of `welcome.lua` into the new `runtime/help.lua`,
which owns the family and loads after it so the index can read
`pmacs.welcome.entries`.

ground truth both read "Missing" / "missing entirely", and a welcome
buffer plus a reachable cheat sheet makes both false. They move to
Partial. §2's step-4 row stays Partial, because `C-h` still deletes a
word and there is no tutorial.

§18's ground truth now records WHY `C-h` stays as it is, so the
help-prefix question reaches the discovery arc as a stated trade rather
than an oversight: non-kitty terminals cannot disambiguate
Ctrl+Backspace from Ctrl+H, so rebinding it would break Ctrl+Backspace
on every legacy terminal.

Levi Neuwirth df500b115b feat(welcome): greet an unconfigured launch — journey step 4
Implements `docs/journey-stage1b3-welcome-framing.md` (approved at
revision 4, after three review rounds). The last of the 1b split.

`COHERENCE.md` §18 graded onboarding "missing entirely": no welcome, no
cheat sheet reachable from inside the editor, and `M-x` — the only door
in — discoverable only by already knowing about it. A fresh `pmacs` now
greets an untouched `*scratch*` with three lines naming `M-x` and four
real bindings, and `M-x help` renders a cheat sheet.

The startup seam is the substance. No constructor is the right hook:
`EditorState::open` calls `new` before resolving its target, the daemon
constructs one too, `init.lua` runs inside `new`, and desktop restore
happens later still. So `run()`'s terminal-free prefix is extracted into
`prepare_startup`, which `run` delegates to, and the greeting happens
there — after config, after attach dispatch resolves to local, and
after desktop restore. Extracting it is also what makes the wiring
testable: with the greeting called by hand from tests instead, deleting
the production call would leave every assertion green while shipping no
welcome.

Lua owns what is said, Rust owns when and where. `pmacs.welcome.entries`
is a structured list that both renders the text and drives the binding
checks — scraping the rendered prose would be ambiguous, since `C-c c`
is two chords and nothing in the text marks the boundary.

The greeting is deliberately NOT written through
`set_generated_contents`: that would lift read-only, discard history and
mark the buffer generated, all wrong for the buffer journey step 5
requires the user to type into immediately. It is left unmodified so it
does not look like unsaved work.

`M-x help` renders through `editor.describe-command`'s existing `*help*`
mechanism via a new `pmacs.editor._show_help` seam, rather than growing
a second help surface.

Levi Neuwirth bc3a465c9e merge: integrate main @ 1f290d5; discharge #203's doc-flip obligation
Stage 1b-1 landed as #203, so the four places it deliberately left
saying "in flight" are flipped here rather than in a standalone docs
PR: this branch already touches all three files, and a separate PR
would re-conflict on every merge.

- `COHERENCE.md` §2's step-9 row: Partial -> **Works**.
- §2's keybinding-inversion paragraph: all three examples answered. The
  quote itself is deliberately unchanged — it names a bias, and three
  fixes do not retire a bias.
- §20 Priority 1 and the arc list: 1b-1 landed, 1b-2 in flight, 1b-3
  remaining.
- `docs/agent-handoff.md` §1: IMPLEMENTED -> LANDED.

Conflicts were additive on both sides and are resolved keeping both:
the journey suite carries step 9 and step 6 (34 pins), and §24 keeps
both drift entries — the `ProjectKind::Cargo` naming error and §1.2's
wrong frequency note.

The two journey lanes are unified into one arc lane rather than one
being deleted. Rule 4 removes a lane when its ARC is done, and the
journey arc is not: 1b-2 is in flight and 1b-3 is unframed. Stage 1a
and 1b-1 are summarized there with their facts in the handoff, which is
rule 4's precondition satisfied rather than deferred.

Levi Neuwirth 2d1812c431 feat(lsp): say when the language server did not start — journey step 6
Implements `docs/journey-stage1b2-lsp-guidance-framing.md` (approved at
revision 4, after three review rounds). Lua, tests and docs; no Rust
change and no protocol change.

`COHERENCE.md` §1.2's canonical silence: a preconfigured server that is
not installed failed with no status message, no record and no modeline
marker, while tree-sitter highlighting kept working and masked it. Now
the status line names the command, the language and the errno; the
modeline reads `LSP:!` instead of nothing; and `M-x lsp.status` renders
a durable `*lsp*` panel.

Half of this was already built. `status_buffer_text()` and
`last_error()` have existed since M4.8, exposed to Lua and tested, with
no production caller and no buffer to render into — several doc
comments already referred to "the `*lsp*` buffer" as though it existed.
The reporting shape was likewise already adopted twice inside
`lsp.lua`; the canonical case was silent because nobody had converted
it.

Three tables with three lifetimes, because one cannot do the job:
`reported` is never cleared and includes the command, so repointing at
another missing executable reports again; `failures` is cleared by a
successful spawn so the panel goes quiet on recovery; and a
buffer-keyed projection feeds the modeline, because that provider runs
for every window on every paint and deriving an affinity key inside it
would invoke root resolvers during painting.

The memo is on the report, not the failure: the spawn is still
attempted on every file open, so installing the binary mid-session
recovers with nothing to invalidate.

Adds `tests/lsp_spawn_guidance_acceptance.rs` (16 pins) and a step-6
row to the journey ratchet.

Levi Neuwirth 6bee82c1a5 feat(compile): make building discoverable — journey step 9
Implements `docs/journey-stage1b1-compile-defaults-framing.md`
(approved at revision 2). Lua, tests and docs; no Rust change and no
protocol change.

`C-c c` now runs `compile.run`, and the first prompt is prefilled from
the detected project kind through `pmacs.compile.defaults` — seeded
`rust = "cargo build"` and extensible from `init.lua`. `_last` still
wins, so a session that has compiled keeps its own command.

The prompt CAPTURES its directory rather than re-resolving it. Sharing
one resolver between the prompt and the run is necessary and not
sufficient: `pmacs.minibuffer.read` is asynchronous and nothing freezes
the active window while a prompt is open, so two calls to the same
resolver at two different moments are still two different answers — the
user could be offered `cargo build` for A and handed a run in B by
clicking away mid-prompt. This is Journey Stage 1a's `commit_to`
discipline on a smaller seam.

`pmacs.compile.defaults` is public and assignable, so the lookup is
guarded: a throwing `__index`, a non-string entry and a non-table
replacement all degrade to the pre-stage empty prompt and never
prevent compiling.

Only `rust` ships seeded. Rust has one answer; npm/yarn/pnpm,
make/cmake, and `go build` versus `go test` do not, and a wrong prefill
costs more than an empty one.

Adds eight step-9 rows to the journey ratchet and five module pins to
the compile suite. Corrects `COHERENCE.md`, which named a
`ProjectKind::Cargo` that does not exist — the variant is `Rust`, line
77 is its doc comment, and Lua only ever sees the tag string "rust".

Levi Neuwirth 12e2cff466 merge: integrate main @ c14f2de (PRs #197, #196) into the Stage 1 lane
`docs/active-work.md` was the only conflicting file. #196 added the dired
Stage 2a lane at the position this branch had used to relabel the #188
framing lane header; the resolution keeps both, changing neither side's
wording.

`src/editor_core.rs` auto-merged. Both lanes touch it, so a clean
textual merge is not evidence of a clean semantic one — the gate suite
is re-run in full on the merged tree rather than inherited from the
pre-merge head.

Resolution verified for line loss in both directions: the resolved file
differs from `main` only by this branch's own authored edits, and
differs from this branch only by additions taken from `main`.

Levi Neuwirth 44135fcd73 fix(stage2a): close review round 1 — four unreported failures
All four findings were the same shape: a failure that left state wrong
and told nobody.

**Delete refusals reach the user.** `reconcile_delete_and_fire` returned
`kept_modified` and `refused` and both production callers discarded
them, so a last-buffer refusal or the asynchronous modified-buffer race
left the file gone and the buffer still bound to it — and the next
`C-x C-s` recreates the deleted file. Reporting now happens inside the
shared seam, not at its call sites, for the same reason the
reconciliation does: a caller that has to remember to report is a caller
that will forget. The message names the buffers (capped, with a count
for the rest) and states the consequence, and it is written to
`EditorCore::status`, not `pmacs.error` — that channel is defined only
by a test stub, so a report there would be the same silence.
`reconcile_delete` now prefixes `kill_buffer`'s reason with the buffer
name, because "cannot kill the last remaining buffer" does not say which
buffer is now bound to a deleted path.

**The LSP subscribers stop swallowing their own failures.** Ignored
`pcall`s around `did_close`, `forget_uri`, `did_open` and overlay
re-rooting made the callback return successfully, so the
`all-must-succeed` logger had nothing to log — concretely, a stale server
made `forget_uri` raise while the callback carried on with the old
stores, routes and `documents` entry all live. A shared failure sink
attributes each step, reports on both channels, and raises **after** the
loop, so one unreachable server cannot leave every other attachment
unreconciled.

**`forget_uri` abandons requests through the established path.** It
purged `pending_routes` and `pending_external` but not the same ids
`send_request` put in `LspClient.pending`, and recorded nothing in
`cancelled_rids`. The per-rid work is extracted from
`drain_cancelled_externals` as `abandon_request` and reused, rather than
a second incomplete copy: route, client pending, cancelled record and
`$/cancelRequest` now happen together.

**Acceptance 35 is pinned.** With a plain delete the forbidden fallback
was unobservable — `find_or_open` raises out of `load_file` and the
`pcall` swallows it — so both assertions passed with the fallback
present. The plan now deletes the origin's file and recreates it, which
gives the fallback something to open and makes "restores nothing"
falsifiable. The corrected G1 explanation also reaches the production
comments, which still repeated the false `resolve_target_buffer::NotFound`
story.

New pins: acceptance 53 and 53b assert the status channel; a stale-server
row asserts attribution on both channels *and* that the healthy
attachment still reconciles; an `lsp.rs` unit test asserts the client-side
abandonment with an unrelated request as its control.

Levi Neuwirth 7e3e630c3b wip(stage2a): the Lua half — hooks, LSP subscribers, applier origin
`resource.renamed` and `resource.deleted` are declared
`all-must-succeed`, so one raising subscriber does not stop the rest
from reconciling.

`lsp.lua` gains the two subscribers. Rename runs the ordered teardown
per attachment — flush the pending didChange, didClose the old URI,
`forget_uri` against the OLD server, re-run `ensure_server` (a rename
across project roots needs a different one), didOpen the new URI, then
re-root the diagnostic overlays. Delete tears the attachment down,
because the buffer may be gone entirely and a retained record is a
dangling handle.

The workspace-edit applier captures the origin BUFFER instead of its
path, and restores nothing when that buffer is gone. A captured Lua
local is unreachable to any transaction, and the old path fallback is
what materialized a phantom empty buffer at the renamed-away path.

`fs.lua` states the overlapping-mutation serialization precondition as
a correctness rule, with the counterexample showing why no static
ordering rule substitutes for it.

Levi Neuwirth 7350cfdd8a merge: integrate main @ e003b81 (PR #190) into the Stage 1 lane
One conflict, `docs/active-work.md`, with three strands rather than the
usual one: main gained #190's lane, this branch carries its own Stage 1
lane and a relabel of the #188 framing lane, and main had removed the
documentation lane while this branch still had it.

Resolved by construction. Main's file taken whole; this branch's Stage
1 lane reinserted at its own position ahead of the bottom-panel lane;
this branch's relabelled framing lane ("MERGED AS PR #188") kept in
place of main's stale "OPEN, PROPOSED" version; main's removal of the
documentation lane preserved.

Verified against both parents rather than by inspection: the Stage 1
block is byte-identical to this branch's, the documentation lane is
gone, no conflict markers survive, and the update-protocol rule 6 seam
check finds no double blanks.

Note for whoever absorbs next: main now carries three lanes describing
merged PRs (#190, #188, #194). This merge keeps this branch's more
accurate labelling of the #188 one but does not remove any of them ---
rule 4 permits removal only once durable facts reach
`docs/agent-handoff.md`, and none of those three PRs touched it.

Levi Neuwirth cb7fe818bd fix(lsp): close review gaps in workspace edit reporting
Normalize batch dependency paths through the registry's lexical
canonical form so equivalent URI spellings do not revive the
initial-state preflight bug.

Separate execution-started state from the count of completed plan
items. Preflight failures retain the no-mutation guarantee, while
runtime failures conservatively acknowledge that the failing item may
itself have changed a buffer or the filesystem.

Add real-server-pump acceptance for dot-path dependency aliases,
partial text edits within one item, and resource-operation side
effects, and record the review-round corrections in the framing.

Levi Neuwirth 5d92348054 fix(editor-core): normalize rewritten selections
Adopt Q#GB6's clamp-or-clear rule in both window-coordinate
normalization paths. Preserve shortened selections, clear only those
collapsed by a moved endpoint, and pin both outcomes through the real
generated-write and view-rebuild callers.

Make listview refresh rely on the generated-write notification before
reseating, so Stage 1 criterion 7's fan-out mutation bites both
adopters. Align criteria 5, 11, and 12 with framing revision 7.

Levi Neuwirth 6b21e93e93 fix(lsp): close review round 1 on the resource-op delete guard
Four findings, all reproduced by the reviewer, all accepted. Two of
them are one defect class — a guard whose scope was REASONED ABOUT
rather than enumerated — so both are recorded in the framing's new §9
together with a sweep of every other place this lane decides something
is "affected".

P1 — the delete preflight broke ordered resource operations
(§9.3). Every delete was judged against the filesystem's INITIAL
state, at plan-construction time, so a valid `create X -> delete X`
was refused with a fabricated NotFound about a path the batch was
about to create; likewise `rename A -> B -> delete B`. This was a
regression this lane introduced, not a pre-existing defect.

Decision: DEFER, do not simulate. A delete whose target is related by
component-aware path containment to a path an EARLIER op in the same
plan creates, renames onto, renames away from, or removes is not
judged at plan time; the primitive judges it when it runs. Q#RD3
already calls this check a filter, not a transaction, so declining to
judge is inside its contract and refusing a legal batch is not.
Simulating instead would mean modelling filesystem presence AND the
registry's path bindings across create/rename/edit — the transaction
Q#RD3 declines to build — and a wrong simulation emits false `clear`
verdicts, which is the dangerous direction. `edit` ops are excluded
from the deferral set on purpose: an edit changes no path's existence,
so it can only turn a plan-time `clear` into a primitive-time
refusal, which Q#RD3 already documents and accepts. The
buffer-and-filesystem half therefore still fires early for any target
no prior op touches, which is what criterion 11c pins.

P1 — the production-boundary acceptances are landed (§9.5).
Criteria 11, 11a-11d, 12 (both directions), 13 and 15 now drive a real
`pmacs_fake_lsp` child over a real transport. One parameterized mode,
`applyeditplan`, replaces the eight the framing named: it reads its
whole WorkspaceEdit from a test-written file and publishes the
client's response to a sink, so each of the eight fixtures sits next
to the assertions that depend on it instead of being mirrored across
two files. Fail-closed — an unreadable plan sends no applyEdit and
reports itself through the sink, so a broken fixture cannot read as a
pass — and the sink is written `.part`-then-rename so a polling reader
never sees a partial record. There is no skip-and-return-ok arm
anywhere: `fake_lsp_path` resolves through `env!("CARGO_BIN_EXE_...")`,
a compile-time constant, so a missing binary is a build failure.

P1 — mid-batch failures were misreported as complete aborts (§9.4).
`apply_workspace_edit` now returns `nil, message, applied_op_count`,
and ONE renderer serves both the user-facing status line and the
server's `failureReason`, so the two cannot disagree. All three
callers are updated, not only the rename one.

P2 — non-recursive deletes inspected descendants (§9.2). `recursive`
is now a parameter of the shared query and descendant matching is
reserved for recursive deletes. The old doc comment argued at length
for the wrong behaviour and is replaced by the counterexample that
falsifies it: a modified buffer at `tree/gone.rs` whose file is
already gone blocked a non-recursive delete of the now-EMPTY `tree/`,
an op that would have succeeded and that removes none of that
buffer's contents. This narrows the Q#RD6 query #171 adopts.

Criterion 3's stated bite: fixed by fixing the SETUP, not the doc.
The first commit's test comment carried a correction saying the
framing's wording was wrong. It was wrong only against that setup —
and §9.2's narrowing would then have left the setup with no bite at
all, since a non-recursive delete no longer inspects a descendant.
So the buffer is now bound to the EXACT deleted path: a file is
opened, then replaced on disk by a non-empty directory, and
`remove_dir` fails with ENOTEMPTY deterministically under any uid.
Both of the framing's stated pre-images now bite, so the framing
needed no amendment there. The correction is recorded in §9.1 rather
than only in a test comment, which is where the review asked for it.

WHY THE SHIPPED SUITE PASSED WHILE FINDINGS 1 AND 4 WERE LIVE — two
coverage facts for the next lane. Every delete criterion drove the
PRIMITIVE directly, so nothing in the suite ever built a multi-op plan
and the preflight's plan-time behaviour had no test at all; the only
batch test, `m4_15`, happens to delete a path no earlier op touches.
And every recursive-delete criterion (7, 8, 9) passes `recursive =
true`, while every non-recursive one binds its buffer to the exact
target, so no test in the suite ever combined a non-recursive delete
with a descendant buffer — the exact cell finding 4 lives in.

Sweep, per the review's request. Seven sites decide something is
"affected"; the table is in framing §9.7. Three were the defects
above. Two are unchanged by design and named so they are not mistaken
for oversights: phase-4 reconciliation compares paths RAW via
`BufferRegistry::find_by_path`, which Q#RD10 pins as "exactly today's
behaviour" and which correcting would widen reconciliation — the one
thing Q#RD5 forbids; and `delete_verdict` stats the raw path while
comparing normalized ones, a latent inconsistency whose every branch
fails safe and which matches the primitive's own `remove_file`. Two
are consistent: the `_delete_verdict` binding defaults `recursive` and
`ignore_if_not_exists` the same way the primitive does, and the
deferral set is enumerated (create: 1 path; rename: 2; delete: 1;
edit: excluded, with the argument written down) rather than reasoned
about. Nothing else in the lane decides an affected set.

Bites. Every row was RUN, with the positive control `scripts/bite`
gained in #192 (merged into this lane), and every ref-based row below
reports `OK (assertion)` rather than `OK (COMPILE)`. `1873be6` is this
lane's own first commit: findings 1, 3 and 4 were introduced by it, so
`main` cannot falsify their pins.

  rd11a builtin/runtime/lsp.lua @ main      OK (assertion)
  rd11b builtin/runtime/lsp.lua @ main      OK (assertion)
  rd11c builtin/runtime/lsp.lua @ main      OK (assertion)
  rd11d builtin/runtime/lsp.lua @ main      OK (assertion)
  rd12a builtin/runtime/lsp.lua @ main      OK (assertion)
  rd12b builtin/runtime/lsp.lua @ main      OK (assertion)
  rd13  builtin/runtime/lsp.lua @ main      OK (assertion)
  rd15  builtin/runtime/lsp.lua @ main      OK (assertion)
  rd18  src/lua_bindings/mod.rs  @ 1873be6  OK (assertion)
  rd19a builtin/runtime/lsp.lua @ 1873be6   OK (assertion)
  rd19b builtin/runtime/lsp.lua @ 1873be6   OK (assertion)
  rd19c builtin/runtime/lsp.lua @ 1873be6   OK (assertion)
  rd20  builtin/runtime/lsp.lua @ 1873be6   OK (assertion)

Two rows need their weakness stated rather than hidden.

rd11 is VACUOUS against `main`'s `lsp.lua` and the script says so — a
preflight-less applier passes it, which is expected, because rd11 is
the direction that asserts the guard does NOT over-refuse (the same
shape as criteria 2, 7, 9 and 14). It bites two other ways, both run:
`OK (assertion)` against `main`'s `src/lua_bindings/mod.rs`, where the
primitive's absent-plus-ignore branch destroys the buffer; and against
a hand mutation dropping `ignore_if_not_exists` from the preflight
call, which is the pre-image the framing actually names for it.

rd3's two pre-images are designs never committed, so no ref carries
them and `scripts/bite` cannot be used. Hand-mutated instead:
reconciliation moved ahead of the filesystem mutation makes rd3 fail
on exactly its stated assertion (and rd4 with it). On this setup that
mutation and "validation that removes rather than inspects" are the
same mutation, because the buffer is bound to the exact deleted path —
stated because the first shipped setup could see neither.

The eight rows against `main`'s `lsp.lua` all fail by TIMEOUT rather
than by a value assertion, and that is the pre-image behaviour, not a
flaky harness: on `main` the primitive's raise escapes the applier,
escapes `handle_server_requests`, is swallowed by the
`pcall(handle_server_requests)` at the bottom of the file, and the
server is never answered at all. The sink is therefore never written.
That unanswered request is the defect criterion 13 exists to pin.

Levi Neuwirth e1b859fd4f feat(generated-buffers): dired and listview adopt the authorized write
Stage 1 of generated-buffer immutability
(docs/generated-buffer-immutability-framing.md, revision 5). Closes the
two families the bug is reachable on WITHOUT `M-x`: `compile.lua` and the
search panel rebind all seven undo chords to a no-op, but `dired.lua` and
`listview.lua` rebind nothing, so a bare `C-/` emptied a listing and a
panel. The cheap half is also the exposed half.

An intercept is not read-only. `Buffer::undo` reaches the rope through
`ensure_writable` and never consults the intercept chain, so the
erroring-intercept-plus-`bypass_intercept`-over-a-writable-rope idiom
guarded the edit path and left the history path open. Rebinding chords
does not close it: `M-x buffer.undo` is dispatchable on every buffer in
the tree.

- `dired.lua`'s `paint` and `listview.lua`'s `render` write through
  `pmacs.buffer.set_generated_contents` — lift the lock, whole-buffer
  replace skipping intercepts, discard history, re-assert the lock, fan
  the `Edit` out. Zero `bypass_intercept` writes remain in either file.
- Both keep their named erroring intercept and `set_round_trip_input`.
  The layering at `terminal.lua:351-366` is unchanged: the rope lock
  protects the daemon copy, round-trip input protects a semantic
  frontend's own mirror, and neither substitutes for the other.
- Q#GB13 — `listview.ensure_panel` stops adopting a same-named foreign
  buffer. Ownership is the `panels` table; a collision disambiguates
  `<2>`..`<99>` and raises at the limit, matching `dired.lua:476-504`.
  This is a prerequisite of the lock, not a follow-up: the arc removes
  the `M-x buffer.undo` that was the only recovery from a clobber.
- Q#GB18 — `panels` becomes a compacting list keyed by identity. It was
  written under the requested name and read back under the actual name,
  which a disambiguated panel breaks: `RET`, `g` and `q` fail closed and
  silently, and `listview.open`'s capture guard fails OPEN, capturing a
  panel as its own `q` target — the chained-panel loop its comment says
  it prevents. Ships in the same commit as the disambiguation by the
  framing's ordering constraint.
- Q#GB6 — `EditorCore::notify_buffer_edit` clamps each window coordinate
  against its own post-edit bound, unconditionally. `cursor` is a byte
  position bounded by `Buffer::len`; `view_top` is a line index bounded
  by `TextView::line_count`, and a replace can grow in bytes while
  collapsing lines, so "the buffer shrank" is not a usable trigger. This
  fixes a shipped defect that reaches terminal copy mode.
- Q#GB16(a) — locking these families disables fold CREATION on them,
  because `document_bytes` is spelled `is_read_only()`. Accepted and
  stated rather than shipped silently; the status string now names the
  read-only lock instead of claiming "not a document buffer".

Acceptance: 10 new criteria in `listview_acceptance` (16 total), 6 in
`dired_acceptance` (31 total), 2 in `terminal_copy_mode_acceptance`.
Every criterion's falsifying mutation was run: 5 bite by revert against
`githubsucks/main`, 9 by a named one-line mutation.

Two framing corrections, both recorded in the tests rather than worked
around silently:

- Stage 1 criterion 5 is unreachable as written. `Buffer::apply_edit`
  (`src/buffer.rs:773`) and `begin_edit` (`:725`) call `ensure_writable`
  as their FIRST statement while the intercept chain runs later inside
  `apply_edit_inner` (`:1072`), so once this arc's lock is installed an
  ordinary edit can never reach the intercept. Restated at the one point
  where the two are distinguishable — the lock lifted — which is the
  state the intercept genuinely still covers.
- Criterion 7 cannot bite at the listview adopter. `listview.refresh`
  and `listview.open` both follow `render` with `window.switch_buffer`,
  which rebuilds the `TextView` from scratch and masks a dropped
  fan-out. `dired.revert` does not, so the dired half carries the bite;
  it fails under the mutation with the reported
  `assertion failed: end <= self.len()`.

Levi Neuwirth 1873be6141 feat(lsp): refuse a resource-op delete that would destroy unsaved work
Implements the framing merged as #186. On `main` today,
`pmacs.buffer.apply_resource_op`'s delete arm removes a file and then
removes any buffer bound to it, with no dirty check at any link in the
chain — so a server-driven delete destroys unsaved edits, and the
`ignore_if_not_exists` arm destroys them having done no filesystem work
at all.

Layer 1 — the primitive. The delete arm becomes four ordered phases:
stat/no-op decision, enumerate and validate, mutate the filesystem,
reconcile the registry. Validation inspects and removes nothing, so a
filesystem failure leaves every buffer intact automatically rather than
by compensation, and `on_removed` still observes the path already gone
because reconciliation stays last.

`delete_verdict` is the single shared query. It scans *every*
path-bound buffer rather than the first match, because `find_by_path`
is first-match-only and `pmacs.buffer.from_file` makes duplicates
reachable — a clean first match could otherwise hide a modified second.
It normalizes both sides before comparing and uses component-aware
`starts_with`, so `/tree` does not match `/tree-sibling`. It stats with
`symlink_metadata`, not `canonicalize`, which reports a dangling
symlink as absent and would disagree with the primitive on exactly the
input `ignore_if_not_exists` turns on.

Layer 2 — the applier and the server-request boundary.
`apply_workspace_edit` gains a plan-time delete precondition check
driven by the same Rust helper, so the two layers cannot drift. It is a
filter, not a transaction, and the code says so: `documentChanges` are
sequential, so an earlier edit can dirty a buffer a later op deletes.
The applier is now total — every failure becomes `nil, message`, and
the origin buffer is restored on the failure path as well as the
success path. At the boundary, parse *and* apply are wrapped:
`_parse_workspace_edit` sits one line above the applier and is
fallible, so a parse failure previously escaped, was swallowed by
`pcall(handle_server_requests)`, and left the server unanswered — the
defect being fixed, one line out of scope. Failures now also append one
labelled record to `*errors*`.

Scope, stated plainly rather than implied by what is present:

  * Acceptance criteria 1-10, 14 and 16 land here — 11 tests driving
    the primitive directly. Criteria 11, 11a-11d, 12, 13 and 15 do
    NOT: they exercise Layer 2 through a real server pump and need
    `pmacs_fake_lsp` modes that do not exist yet. Criterion 13
    explicitly rejects a direct-call test as insufficient, so the
    Layer 2 code currently has no production-path pin. That is a real
    gap and the reason this is not the whole lane.

  * The framing's §8 branch plan said the implementation would land on
    #186 itself. #186 merged as framing-only, so it gets its own
    branch and PR. No decision changes.

  * Criterion 3's stated bite in the framing is wrong. It claims to
    fail against buffer-first ordering; it does not, because the
    deleted path is a directory no buffer is bound to, so the
    reordering never fires on that input. It does fail against
    validation that removes rather than inspects. Checked by mutation
    rather than trusted, and the test comment carries the correction.

Bite: criteria 1, 5, 6, 8 and 10 fail against `githubsucks/main` under
`scripts/bite`. Criteria 3 and 4 pin phase ordering against designs
never committed, so `main` cannot falsify them; both were verified by
hand mutation instead. Criteria 2, 7, 9 and 14 assert preserved or
deliberately-unchanged behaviour and pass against `main` by design —
2 is criterion 1's opposite direction, 9 pins today's imperfect
orphaning so widening cannot happen silently.

Gates: fmt; clippy -D warnings; --lib 1863; --lib --features crdt
2048; m4_acceptance 132; lsp_dispatch_seams_acceptance 15;
dired_acceptance 25 and autosave_acceptance 29 (the framing's watch
items); PMACS_REQUIRE_GPU=1 -p pmacs-gpu 202; git diff --check clean.

No protocol change.

Levi Neuwirth 7741cf806a fix(journey): honor the captured window, not the selected one
Review round 1 of PR #182. One implementation gap and two stale claims.

**The scope pins the frontend; it does not pin the window.** Framing
§4.4 specified `display{ window = dest:window() }`, but dired's commit
still ended in `pmacs.window.switch_buffer`, which targets whatever
window the scoped frontend has selected. A split or panel that took
focus while `read_dir` was pending therefore received the listing, and
`prev` was captured from it too — with every preflight check passing,
because the captured window was still live and still held its captured
buffer. Both sites now read the captured window: `display` routes to it
with `select = true` (the later `seat_cursor` acts on the active
window), and the `prev` read asks it directly.

N4c pins both halves. The suite's existing routing pins all varied
*frontend* identity; none varied the selected window within one
frontend, which is exactly why 23 green pins missed this. Bite: dired's
`display` back to `switch_buffer` fails N4c alone; `prev` read from the
ambient window fails N4c alone.

Two stale documentation claims, both of which this PR was supposed to
have already fixed:

* **The §0 scorecard still graded §2 "Broken at entry"** while §2's own
  ground truth had been rewritten. The scorecard is a second copy of the
  same claim and §25's protocol covers both. §19's row and ground truth
  were stale the same way — this PR creates the first cross-subsystem
  suite, which §19 says should exist and grades as missing — and are
  corrected too.
* **P4 still read "leaves exactly one buffer"**, the exact claim rev 6
  corrected as false everywhere else in the framing. Restated to what it
  actually pins: the file is in the *active window*. The test was
  already written correctly; only the framing lied.

Framing rev 8.

Levi Neuwirth d1bff6ac30 fix(lean4): count fan-outs where a claim cannot skip the count
Round 11 put the nesting count in the expander, which is optional. A
consumer at a lower priority can CLAIM and stop the chain before the
expander runs, while that fan-out's deferred-expansion subscriber still
runs — so the nested pass went uncounted, looked like the outermost
one, expanded early, and outer pairing resumed with a record the
replace had invalidated. `\alp(` gave `α(` again.

The count now comes from a no-op consumer registered at the minimum
priority, which runs first in every chain invocation that reaches any
consumer at all. Its guarantee is exactly the ordering contract the
chain already rests on, and it degrades safely: the only thing that can
skip it is a claim ahead of it, which skips the expander too, so
nothing is queued in that fan-out either.

The other plausible home does not work and the comment now says why: a
subscriber registered beside `run_deferred` is too late, because the
whole nested fan-out completes inside the OUTER chain's subscriber,
before either of them runs.

Acceptance 45o pins the short-circuit path — a consumer at 25 that
claims when the record is nil, so the nested pass never reaches the
expander. 45n passes against this bug, which is why both exist.
Counting in the expander fails 45o and nothing else.

Framing rev 12 also names the shape rounds 10–12 share: each fix was
correct about the failure it was shown and wrong about the boundary of
the mechanism it leaned on — the chain's copy semantics, then its
re-entrancy, then its short-circuit. A queue that outlives the thing
that filled it has to name that thing, not approximate it.

Levi Neuwirth 0d7ec7e3a6 fix(lean4): tie the deferred expansion to the fan-out that queued it
`buffer.after-edit` fan-outs NEST — the typed-edit contract supports a
consumer calling `pmacs.hook.run`, and typed_edit.lua's header says so
in its second paragraph. A nested run re-enters every subscriber,
including the deferred expansion's, while the OUTER chain is still
walking its consumer list and pairing has not yet seen the terminator.

So a consumer registered at priority 75 — between the expander at 50
and pairing at 100 — that runs one nested fan-out made `\alp(` yield
`α(` again: the nested pass consumed the queued expansion and edited,
and outer pairing then resumed holding a record the replace had
invalidated. That is round 10's failure reached through the chain's
documented re-entrancy seam rather than through claiming, which is why
deferring alone did not close it.

Deferring work past a fan-out means owning WHICH fan-out it belongs to.
The chain's subscriber and this module's each run exactly once per
fan-out, in that order, so counting invocations of the first and
matching them off in the second identifies the nesting level. Only the
outermost pass expands; a nested one leaves the expansion queued. No
new seam in typed_edit.lua, which is merged Stage 4a substrate.

Both halves bite: removing the level check and never counting
invocations each fail the new acceptance 45n.

Also fixes a test comment that still described the span design round 10
discarded — it claimed the expansion replaces the span "INCLUDING the
terminator". The behaviour asserted was right; the explanation was
stale. Framing rev 11.

Levi Neuwirth f3103a6953 fix(lean4): defer the expansion past the chain, and guard its point
Three defects, all about what happens AROUND the expansion rather than
about resolving an abbreviation.

A pair character that TERMINATES an abbreviation never reached
auto-pairing: `\alp(` gave `α(`. Q#LN22 already said the terminator is
not claimed and the implementation claimed it whenever an expansion
succeeded. Merely declining is not enough either — the chain hands each
consumer a copy of the record made before any consumer ran, so
expanding inside the chain invalidates the copy pairing is holding and
the closer is silently lost. Verified by mutation rather than assumed:
expand-then-decline reproduces `α(` exactly.

The expansion therefore runs on its OWN `buffer.after-edit` subscriber,
registered after typed_edit.lua's and before lsp.lua's. A claim stops
the chain but not a separate subscriber, which is the point: pairing
claims the terminator it reacts to. The replaced span now covers only
the leader and the typed text, so pairing's closer lands outside it and
survives. One undo restores the same text either way, because the
terminator was always its own insert.

That second subscriber is a new instance of Q#AP7 — lsp.lua flushes
didChange synchronously on the signature-trigger path, and `(` is a
trigger — so acceptance 45m pins it with the sighelp fake server: no
didChange may ever carry the unexpanded text.

The relevance check is now three-part, as pairing's has been since
#110: buffer, window, AND `ed.cursor() == rec.post_cursor`. A redefined
self-insert can insert the completing character and then move the
point, and expanding over a span the user has left teleports them back
into it.

Cursor placement after the replace is context-guarded, as
`repair_cursor` is. A buffer intercept may switch buffers while
`buf:replace` runs; the unguarded `goto_byte` then translated the Lean
buffer's pre-edit point through the Lean buffer's edit and applied it
to whatever was ambient.

Q#LN22, criterion 38's span wording, and the ledger are corrected to
describe the deferred design rather than the one that shipped — the
rationale's source, not only the sites quoting it. Acceptance 45j/45k/
45l/45m added; framing rev 10.

Levi Neuwirth f09f66ce37 feat(journey): open a directory, on one path
Journey Stage 1a's core: `pmacs .` opens the directory instead of
exiting 1, and local startup stops being a second implementation of
path resolution.

`EditorState::open` now calls `EditorCore::resolve_target_buffer` --
the primitive whose own doc comment says it exists "so two
path-normalization, dedup, and hook transactions cannot drift apart",
and which local startup had never been a caller of.

`resolve_target_buffer` returns a typed `ResolvedTarget` rather than
`(BufferId, HookKind)`, with a `Directory` arm checked ahead of the
load. Without it the load runs and fails: `File::open` succeeds on a
directory and `read_to_end` returns EISDIR, which is not `NotFound`, so
the `[new file]` arm never fired.

A directory creates no buffer. It dispatches a resolver chain: the
short-circuit `path.open-directory` hook, which no builtin subscribes
to, and then `pmacs.path.directory_handler`, which dired defaults. The
split is forced rather than chosen -- hook callbacks only append and
builtins load before init.lua, so a subscribing builtin would always
claim before any user listener could run. A raising listener stops the
chain and suppresses the fallback.

The listing is async and the daemon bootstrap is not, so the whole
post-await commit runs inside a new `pmacs.window.commit_to`: it
validates the destination -- frontend live, window live, buffer
unchanged, window replaceable -- BEFORE invoking its callback, then
scopes the acting frontend for its extent. Validating at display time
would be four dired mutations too late.

That scope is deliberately not `InteractiveCommandOrigin`, which does
not reach the core-ambient APIs and is authenticated user-command
authority a background continuation must not acquire.

The dedication rule is extracted into one `window_accepts_buffer`
shared by exact display, the display probe, and the new preflight, with
`incoming: Option<BufferId>` -- `None` means "the replacement does not
exist yet" and refuses a dedicated window.

`display_file` keeps its directory-is-an-error contract and does not
enter the chain; find-file's accept arm depends on it.

that supersedes it — per this ledger's own rule to remove entries when

Levi Neuwirth a53965474d feat(lean4): the Unicode input method (Arc 8 Stage 4b)
Typing `\alpha` in a Lean 4 buffer gives `α`; `\<>` gives `⟨⟩` with the
point between them. The abbreviation table is vendored from
vscode-lean4 and the expander is a typed-edit consumer registered on
the Stage 4a chain at priority 50, ahead of auto-pairing.

The ordering is load-bearing. 64 abbreviation keys contain a character
in the `lean4` pair set, so with pairing first, typing `\[` would
insert `[]` and corrupt the pending key to `\[]` before the second `[`
arrives — `\[[]]` becomes unreachable. The consumer therefore claims
every keystroke that EXTENDS a pending abbreviation, not only one that
completes an expansion; claiming only completions would hand each
intermediate `[` to pairing by a different route.

The vendored table is an ORDERED SEQUENCE, not a map. Upstream breaks
equal-length ties by source declaration order — 101 prefixes depend on
it, and `\f` resolves through `f<` rather than `f>` — which a
`pairs`-iterated Lua table cannot express. `scripts/regen-lean-abbrev`
takes a vscode-lean4 commit, emits the file with its provenance header,
and aborts on a duplicate key, invalid UTF-8, or a round-trip mismatch.

Undo is cross-peer-degraded on CRDT frontends and that is accepted and
named, not papered over (Q#LN21): `\alpha` arrives as six source-peer
optimistic inserts while the expansion is one daemon-peer replace.
`set_round_trip_input` would fix it and also makes `dispatch_idle`
report false, so RET would stop inserting a newline.

Round 9 corrects three approved acceptance criteria that the real table
contradicts, found by simulating the state machine over all 1,855
entries and re-reading upstream at the pinned commit rather than
re-reading the prose. `\to` is not eager — `top`, `to0` and `toa`
extend it. `\zzzz` expands to `ζzzz ` because `ze`, `zeta` and
`zsqrtd` exist; only `$ % , ; @ W` open no key at all. And `\alpha`'s
undo does not restore `\alpha ` because `alpha` IS eager, so the
terminator is a separate edit. Criteria 38, 41 and 42 now state both
paths, and the false halves are asserted too: they read as correct
until the table is consulted.

Three implementation traps worth the record. The generator's own
round-trip check was broken twice and failed closed both times:
`str.splitlines()` splits on U+2028, which 53 symbols contain, and
escaping through `chr(byte)` produced a latin-1-shaped string that the
UTF-8 write re-encoded. The first check compared in-memory strings and
agreed with itself; it now stages the file, re-reads the bytes from
disk, and renames into place only on a match. And the expansion SHRINKS
the buffer, so the point must be placed explicitly — pairing's
no-cursor-motion rule holds only for an insert AT the cursor, and
without this every self-insert after the first expansion is silently
rejected and the editor looks dead.

25 acceptance tests plus one `--lib` test for the optimistic CRDT
producer (45f), which is where the gate list's `--features crdt` run
reaches it; a crdt-gated integration test would be dark in CI and in
the gates both. Fifteen mutations bite, each failing its target. Three
of these tests were vacuous when first written and biting is what
found them: the abandonment test asserted text a surviving record
would also produce, the re-arm test used an example that never reaches
the re-arm branch, and both switch tests ran through
`find_or_open`'s fresh-load path rather than `buffer.after-switch`.

No protocol change (Q#LN14). Also reconciles the handoff and ledger
for Stage 4a (#179) and adds `lean.abbrev` to COHERENCE.md's
config-registry adoption census, now nine settings.

Levi Neuwirth a0fb01f24c fix(buffer): fan out generated writes, and clear the history that exists
Review round 3, on the round-2 primitive itself. One lesson covers all
three findings: a rope write is only half of an edit, and "discard
history" means whichever history the buffer actually has.

P1 — the binding swallowed the edit. `set_generated_contents` returned
`()`, so nothing reached `notify_buffer_edit_to_windows`. Two
consequences, both reproduced by the reviewer. In the default build a
window showing the buffer kept a `TextView` line index describing the
PREVIOUS contents, and the next paint indexed the new rope with stale
ranges — `assertion failed: end <= self.len()` in `src/rope.rs`. In the
CRDT build `pending_crdt_ops` stayed empty, so replica mirrors never
imported the owner's write and their optimistic edits were generated
against content already replaced. The `delete`+`insert` pair this
replaced had done that fan-out for free.

Now applies ONE whole-buffer `Replace`, returns its `Edit`, and notifies
from the binding. The doc comment states the obligation, because the
next owner to adopt the primitive inherits it.

P2 — "discard history" was false in CRDT mode. The v0.1 stacks are
bypassed entirely there; the history lives in loro's `UndoManager`.
`read_only` stops the replay but not the retention, which is the memory
cost the contract claims to eliminate. `UndoManager` exposes no clear,
but needs none: it records only what happens after it is constructed,
the same property `CrdtState::from_bytes` already uses to keep the seed
insert out of undo. `CrdtState::clear_undo_history` rebinds a fresh
manager to the same doc.

P2 — the docs described the pre-fix architecture. Q#TC6a said no Lua
binding sets `read_only` and round-trip input is the only guard; the
acceptance text still said `is_read_only() == false` while 16b had been
flipped to true; `terminal.lua`'s comment repeated the obsolete claim.
The architecture is layered and now says so: rope-level read-only
protects the daemon copy, round-trip input protects the replica's
optimistic mirror, and neither substitutes for the other. Q#TC6a keeps
its analysis under a superseded-in-part box rather than being silently
rewritten — its conclusion survives, two of its premises do not.

New pins. acc16d paints the window after a SHRINKING generated write:
stale offsets then point past the buffer end, so the failure is the
reported crash rather than merely stale pixels. acc16e asserts the
refresh is queued for mirrors, through the real copy-mode path;
`crdt`-gated and therefore dark in CI, which is why 16d drives the
binding rather than the terminal. Plus a CRDT unit test that ten renders
leave the `UndoManager` with nothing recorded.

Bites: dropping the notify panics acc16d at `rope.rs:145` and fails
acc16e with `queued: []`; dropping the `UndoManager` rebind fails the
new unit test on `can_undo`.

Still open, and recorded in COHERENCE.md §14: the fan-out obligation
makes `*compilation*`/listview adoption more than a one-line swap.

Levi Neuwirth aef4e98c26 fix(typed-edit): close round-8 review on the consumer chain
Five defects in the chain itself, plus the stale handoff state.

Each consumer now gets its own shallow copy of the typed-edit record.
Handing everyone the same table let a DECLINING consumer rewrite
provenance for the ones behind it, and pairing decides what to close
from `rec.char` — so a forged `char` turned a typed `x` into `x)`.
Every field is a scalar or an opaque id, so a shallow copy is complete.

The fan-out iterates a snapshot of the consumer list. It was iterating
the same array `add_consumer` mutates: a consumer that registered a
lower-priority one shifted itself forward under `ipairs` and ran twice,
and re-registering made that unbounded. Registrations and removals made
during a fan-out now take effect on the next one, stated as a contract
and pinned in both directions.

`tostring` on the caught error moved inside the containment. A Lua
error may be any value, including a table whose `__tostring` throws —
rendering it outside the `pcall` reintroduced exactly the escape the
containment exists to prevent.

Priorities are validated as finite integers in i32 range, matching
`pmacs.completion.register`. NaN is a number and every ordered
comparison with it is false, so a NaN consumer landed wherever the
insertion scan gave up and silently voided the lowest-first ordering
that Q#LN22 depends on.

`add_consumer` returns a handle and `remove_consumer` unregisters it,
reporting whether it was live. Without teardown the chain inherited the
`pmacs.hook.add` callback leak COHERENCE.md §13 already records, and
spread it to every consumer.

Also corrects the rationale the containment was documented with, in the
module, the test, and the framing: an uncontained throw does NOT take
the fan-out's other subscribers down. `run_all_must_succeed`
(src/hook.rs:332) collects errors and continues, so lsp.lua still
flushes didChange. The containment is still required — the throw skips
every later consumer in the chain — but the reason is narrower than
rev 7 claimed.

Criteria 46f (record isolation), 46g (snapshot iteration), and 46h
(lifecycle and priority validation) added; 46d's rationale corrected.
Four new tests, all bite-verified by mutation, each failing only its
target: shared record table (1), live-array iteration (1), unprotected
tostring (1), bare number check (1), no-op removal (2). The suite also
runs green under `--features lua54`.

docs/agent-handoff.md said Stage 4a was awaiting approval while this
branch had it implemented and in review.

Levi Neuwirth 8c5b39ef32 fix(buffer): make generated buffers survive undo
Review round 2, P1. Undo could empty the "read-only" snapshot.

`render_snapshot` wrote with bypass_intercept, which leaves ordinary
undo history behind, and `Buffer::undo` reaches the rope through
`ensure_writable` without ever consulting the intercept chain. So a
single `C-/` — or `M-x buffer.undo`, which needs no keymap at all —
replaced a freshly rendered snapshot with an empty buffer.
`set_round_trip_input` does not help: it routes the key into the daemon
command path, which is exactly where undo runs.

Rebinding the undo chords buffer-locally would not have closed this,
and `compile.lua` already says so in a comment: "command/menu undo
stays dispatchable". `*compilation*` and listview panels therefore
carry the same latent defect today.

Adds `Buffer::set_generated_contents` (Lua:
`pmacs.buffer.set_generated_contents`): lift `read_only`, replace the
contents skipping intercepts, discard the resulting history, re-assert
`read_only`. This ships the framing's deferred immutability lane as ONE
primitive rather than exposing the setter — a bare `set_read_only`
would let a caller lock a buffer it can no longer refresh, which is
precisely why that lane was deferred. Discarding history is
load-bearing twice: it removes what undo would replay, and it stops a
periodically refreshed buffer accumulating rope clones that `read_only`
guarantees nothing can ever pop.

New acceptance 16c drives the real M-x path
(`command.invoke_interactive`), the chord, and redo, and asserts the
owner's own refresh still works — the operation plain `read_only` would
have broken. Acceptance 16b flips from asserting `is_read_only()` is
false to true, because the property it documented is the one that was
wrong. Three `buffer.rs` unit tests cover the primitive directly,
including that ten refreshes leave an empty undo stack.

Bite: restoring the delete+insert render reproduces the report exactly
— `left: Some("")` against the full snapshot — failing 16c and 16b.

Still open, and now named in the framing, COHERENCE.md §14 and the
ledger: `*compilation*` and listview have not adopted the primitive and
remain emptiable by `M-x buffer.undo`; a streaming-friendly variant is
needed for the append case. In CRDT mode `read_only` is what refuses
undo, since loro's UndoManager exposes no clear through `CrdtState`.

Levi Neuwirth 24ca906294 feat(typed-edit): the typed-edit consumer chain (Arc 8 Stage 4a)
`pmacs.editor.take_typed_edit()` is one-shot and per-frontend (Q#AP9):
the first `buffer.after-edit` callback to call it clears the slot, and
every later callback in the same fan-out sees nil. That was survivable
only because auto-pairing was the sole consumer — never a property
anyone chose. A second independent caller would get nil or steal the
record from pairing depending on hook registration order, and
registration order is not a contract.

This makes it one. `builtin/runtime/typed_edit.lua` owns the single
after-edit subscriber that reads the record, and offers that one read to
consumers registered through `pmacs.typed_edit.add_consumer{ name,
priority, fn }`: lowest priority first, ties by registration order, and
the first consumer to return truthy claims the edit and stops the chain.
`pair.lua` becomes that chain's only consumer, at priority 100.

No Lean content. Stage 4b's abbreviation expander is what needs the
ordering guarantee (64 of its 1,855 keys contain a `lean4` pair-set
character, so pairing running first corrupts them), but the chain is
substrate every language runs through, which is why it ships alone —
framing Q#LN10, and §4's rule that no PR in this arc mixes a
cross-cutting substrate change with Lean feature content.

Three design points worth review attention:

- Consumers are called even when the record is nil. "This fan-out
  carried no typed edit" is information a consumer acts on: it is how
  pairing's test seam observes a non-event, and how Stage 4b will
  abandon a pending abbreviation an unrelated edit invalidated. Three
  existing auto-pairing tests fail if the chain skips consumers on nil.
- The chain pcalls each consumer. `buffer.after-edit` is
  all-must-succeed, so a throwing consumer would otherwise fail the
  fan-out for every other subscriber, including lsp.lua's didChange
  flush. Behavior-preserving for pairing, which already never throws.
- Ordered insertion, not `table.sort`, which is not stable in Lua —
  "ties by registration order" is a stated contract, not a coincidence.

`tests/auto_pair_acceptance.rs` is UNCHANGED — zero lines — and its 45
tests pass. That is criterion 46 and the whole no-behavior-change claim;
a suite edited to accommodate the refactor would prove nothing.

`tests/typed_edit_chain_acceptance.rs` adds 9 tests for criteria
46a-46e. Every one is bite-verified by mutation: appending instead of
ordered insert (5 fail), `>=` for the tiebreak (1), re-taking per
consumer (4), ignoring the claim (1), dropping the pcall (1), skipping
nil fan-outs (1 here plus 3 in the untouched auto-pair suite), and
loading the chain after lsp.lua (the Q#AP7 flush test fails, alongside
the two existing pairing ones).

Levi Neuwirth 2eb6218ccd fix(terminal): close review round 1 on copy mode
Four findings, all real, and they rhyme in pairs. Two implementation
defects and two vacuous pins, all four tracing to one root: a name is
not an identity, and a context-free readout is not a state observation.

A foreign buffer carrying the snapshot's name was adopted and then
overwritten. `pmacs.buffer.create` accepts any caller-chosen name and
snapshot writes use bypass_intercept, so found-by-name adoption
clobbered user data — the reviewer reproduced "do not clobber" becoming
23 newlines. Now follows dired's F7 rule: ownership means "in copy
mode's own handle table", never "found by name", and a taken name yields
a `<2>` variant.

Snapshot identity was keyed by terminal NAME.
`TerminalManager::open` uniquifies only the derived name — an explicit
`name = ...` is inserted verbatim — so two valid terminals can share
one, and a name-keyed table handed them a single snapshot: the second
invocation retargeted it, `q` returned to the wrong terminal, and
killing either removed the shared buffer. Identity is now the terminal
buffer, compared in an array, because BufferIdLua implements `__eq` but
each wrapper is a distinct table key: comparison works, hashing does
not. The kill-with-terminal callback now closes over its own record
rather than looking the name up again.

The refresh pins were vacuous. Acceptance 19 compared a quiet
terminal's snapshot against itself and 18 counted buffers, so both
passed with render_snapshot replaced by a no-op. The child is
`exec cat`, so the tests now type a marker into the focused terminal,
require it ABSENT from the existing snapshot, and only then refresh —
via `g` and via re-invocation respectively.

The tail-follow pin could not observe view state.
`TerminalManager::snapshot(buffer_id)` is context-free and always
returns the live screen, so it reported "at the tail" even for a view
forced to the oldest retained row. Now read through
`snapshot_for_view`'s at_bottom and its projected cells.

Adds acceptance 18a (a foreign same-named buffer is never adopted or
clobbered) and 18b (two same-named terminals get two independent
snapshots, each `q` returns to its own source, and killing one leaves
the other's snapshot alive).

Four new bites, all discriminating: restoring adopt-by-name fails 18a
AND 18b; restoring name-keyed identity fails 18b; making
render_snapshot a no-op fails BOTH 18 and 19, which is the vacuity
demonstrated rather than argued; and forcing the view off the tail
fails 20.

Criterion 17 stays a named follow-up, per review agreement, until the
real GPU probe is non-skipping and CI-executed.

Levi Neuwirth 1b1e599070 feat(terminal): copy mode over retained scrollback
Stage 2 of docs/terminal-config-and-copy-mode-framing.md (rev 4,
approved). `M-x terminal.copy-mode`, or `C-t` in a terminal buffer —
physically `C-c C-t`, since every unescaped key goes to the child —
materializes the retained scrollback into an ordinary read-only,
path-less buffer, with `g` to re-snapshot and `q` to return.

No protocol change.

Materializing is the whole design. isearch, motion, selection and the
kill ring work with no new substrate because the snapshot is a rope, so
SearchStore and the existing match painting apply unchanged. And "keys
must not reach the child" dissolves structurally rather than being
guarded: the transport arm keys on is_terminal(buffer_id), and a
snapshot is not a terminal, so the arm never fires. The
dispatch-shadow count stays at six and describe-key keeps telling the
truth — asserted directly, since that is the observable difference
between the buffer-local idiom and a shadow.

One serializer, not two (Q#TC7). `copy_retained` builds a whole-range
selection and hands it to `copy_selection_bytes`; a second walk would
re-derive soft-wrap joining, wide-glyph continuation, cluster bytes and
per-row trailing-blank trimming, and the two would drift. Four unit
pins in view.rs assert exact bytes against the same projection fixtures
that pin the serializer itself.

Q#TC6a is implemented as two calls, and the second is the load-bearing
one: an intercept guards dispatch only, and no Lua binding sets
Buffer::read_only, so set_round_trip_input is what keeps a replica
frontend from applying optimistically and emitting an op that would
pass ensure_writable and mutate both sides. Acceptance 16 pins that
UNGATED, because CI never compiles the crdt feature.

Eight of nine criteria. Criterion 17's semantic-frontend end-to-end pin
is deliberately absent: the optimistic apply lives only in
pmacs-gpu/src/main.rs and the headless SemanticClient has no optimistic
path, so a faithful test needs the real GPU binary — the a37
foundation, which CI never compiles, silently returns ok when the
binary is unbuilt, and is load-sensitive. Both halves of the mechanism
are pinned ungated instead (16, and 16b for the hazard); the wire-level
half stays an explicit obligation of the CI crdt-coverage lane.

Substrate fact found while wiring lifecycle: TerminalManager::prune
REACTS to a buffer already gone from the registry rather than removing
one, so a child exiting leaves both the terminal and its snapshot
alive. That is why on_removed is a sound teardown hook, and why a
finished command's output stays readable.

Five bites, five different wrong implementations, each failing exactly
one test: removing set_round_trip_input fails acceptance 16 in the
DEFAULT configuration; a naive independent serializer fails all four
unit pins, with the diffs naming each drift mode; making re-invoke
create a fresh buffer fails 18; dropping the kill-with-terminal
teardown fails 18; removing the intercept fails 16b.

COHERENCE.md: §6 gains this as the worked example that a modal-looking
feature need not become a shadow; §11 records the scope="global"
deferral's second live case, making the argument for both registry
deferrals cumulative; §2 step 8 gains copy mode and keeps the
still-missing close command named.
