Completes Journey Stage 1a: the `commit_to` acceptance suite (framing
§6 N4, N6, N6b, N6c, P1, P2, P3) plus the documentation updates
COHERENCE §25 requires the PR to carry.
Bite-testing the new pins found a real gap. Deleting the
`ScopedFrontend` arm from `acting_frontend` left N4 green, because
`ScopedFrontend::enter` also swaps `core.active_frontend` and the
ambient fallback then answers correctly on its own. The arm is
load-bearing in exactly one case — a commit reached from inside an
interactive command, where the origin sits between the override and the
ambient value — and nothing pinned it. N4b is added, driven through
`dispatch_key` because that is the only thing that establishes an
interactive origin, and the mutation now bites it.
Two smaller corrections found the same way:
* `commit_to`'s forged-destination message was unreachable. Typed as
`AnyUserData`, mlua rejected a table during argument conversion, so a
caller got "error converting Lua table to userdata" — true, but naming
neither the rule nor the remedy. The parameter is now `mlua::Value`
and the pointed message fires.
* P1 and P2 also fail on full revert, since `commit_to` does not exist
on the pre-image, so §6.0's "legitimately green on the pre-image" does
not describe them. They stay in the P list because their
discriminating falsifier is the named mutation — a revert-only check
cannot distinguish "validates" from "validates in time" — and each pin
now says so at its own site rather than being silently mislabelled.
Bite results, each run against the whole suite:
scope stops swapping `core.active_frontend` -> N6a, P3 fail; nothing else
preflight moved after the callback -> P1, P2 fail; nothing else
drop the `ScopedFrontend` arm -> N4b fails; nothing else
Docs: COHERENCE §2 grade + step-3 verdict row, §20 Priority 1 and the
arc list; the GPU initial-target framing's Q#GT6 and acceptance 10,
whose directory case this stage deliberately supersedes; handoff §1;
the active-work ledger; framing rev 7.

Four review findings, all confirmed against the tree.
Q#JR3 was false. `replace_active_buffer` does not drop the startup
scratch buffer -- its body is one `switch_active_buffer` call, which
reassigns the window's buffer_id and removes nothing. The claim came
from that function's own doc comment, wrong for as long as it has
existed, and rev 5 propagated it into the framing and into new
documentation this branch added. Both comments are corrected here,
because this PR was adding further false references to a claim P4
depends on. Actually removing the stale scratch is buffer-lifetime work
and stays out.
The daemon bootstrap could report the wrong buffer. The directory arm
captured the destination id, ran the resolver chain synchronously, then
returned the captured id -- so a handler that opened something
synchronously through commit_to had already replaced the window's
buffer, and the reply paired one buffer's snapshot with another's
identity. It also returned early, skipping the post-hook revalidation
the framing said stayed active. The arm now re-reads the destination
after dispatch and rehomes through `non_side_target` as the file arm
does. Pinned by a test whose handler claims synchronously.
N11 tested neither RET nor self-insert: it called display_file and
buf:insert directly, so it stayed green with dired's RET binding, its
entry dispatch, and the editor's self-insert path all broken. Both
gestures now go through dispatch_key.
P7 is removed rather than weakened. Q#JR12 has nothing to pin --
`had_file = file.is_some()` and a directory is Some like any other, so
no directory-specific branch exists to break. The old test never armed
restore and hard-coded had_file, so it could not fail against any
implementation.
Also adds the daemon bootstrap pins (N2, N5) and fixes an insertion that
had orphaned a `#[cfg(feature = "crdt")]` from the test it guarded --
which would have made one new test dark and one existing test escape its
gate.
Framing: docs/journey-stage1a-framing.md rev 6.
Serves COHERENCE.md §2 (the golden product journey), §19 (coherence
acceptance tests), and §20 Priority 1, which grades the journey broken
at step 3 because `pmacs .` exits 1.
Stage 1a ships four things: the directory argument routed into dired's
buffer on both the local and daemon/GPU startup paths; EditorState::open
adopting resolve_target_buffer so the two path-open implementations
become one; a scoped-destination commit primitive so an async open lands
where it was requested or nowhere; and the first cross-subsystem journey
acceptance suite.
Framing only -- no implementation. Rev 5 after four review rounds.
