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

Two stages, one arc, no protocol change. Stage 1 makes the terminal
configurable (profiles, scrollback, escape key) and binds the opening
command; Stage 2 adds copy mode and search over scrollback. They are
independently releasable and get separate branches and PRs.
Three scouted facts shaped the design, two of them ruling out the
obvious plan.
Profiles cannot be a config-registry setting: ConfigValue is four
scalars and there is no table kind, so profiles join pmacs.lsp.config
and pmacs.pair.sets as a raw Lua table while the registry holds only
scalars.
Search cannot reuse isearch in place: SearchStore addresses matches as
byte ranges into a buffer's rope, and a terminal identity buffer is
empty by construction.
An in-place copy mode would be the seventh dispatch shadow, which
COHERENCE section 6 grades weak and growing by one island per modal
feature, with no transient-keymap mechanism to migrate to.
Copy mode therefore materializes the retained rows into an ordinary
read-only buffer. isearch, motion, selection and the kill ring work
with no new substrate; the "keys must not reach the child" problem
dissolves because the snapshot is not a terminal; and describe-key
stays truthful because the bindings are buffer-local. The cost, stated
in the doc, is that the snapshot is point-in-time rather than a live
freeze.
Four review rounds produced the load-bearing parts: the escape-key
cache is owned by TerminalSession so its lifecycle is the terminal's,
with three acceptance pins that each fail a different wrong cache; the
snapshot needs set_round_trip_input because a Lua intercept does not
set Buffer::read_only and an optimistic CrdtOp would mutate both the
daemon buffer and the mirror; the double-escape must encode the
configured chord rather than a hardcoded ETX; and the two open-time
settings resolve through the global chain because they are read before
the terminal buffer exists.
