Replaces the editor-blocking `poll_until` tick-loop in the LSP UX
with the M9.1 external-settle pattern: each `textDocument/*` request
registers a pending entry via `AsyncRuntime::register_external` and
returns the job id; the JSON-RPC response (or a server-teardown /
cancel / timeout) settles it, resuming a `Handle:await()` coroutine.
No worker thread is occupied for the round-trip.
Hybrid result delivery (operator decision): the response is absorbed
into the typed stores *and* carried through the Handle. The
completion popup and diagnostics gutter keep reading the stores
untouched; request/response command code awaits the value directly.
Core (src/lsp.rs):
- `LspManager` gains `runtime: SharedAsyncRuntime` (threaded through
`make_lsp_manager` / editor.rs, mirroring `make_mcp_manager`) plus
a `(server, request_id)` -> PendingExternal awaiter table parallel
to `pending_routes`.
- `request_*` return the async `JobId` (`= u64`, signature
unchanged; no caller consumed the old JSON-RPC id).
- `handle_response` settles every non-cancelled awaiter ok/failed
alongside store absorption; null result still wakes await with nil.
- Awaiters drain-cancelled at all three `pending_routes` purge sites
(restart generation flip / terminal exit / forget) so a coroutine
cannot park on a server that went away.
- Per-tick sweep: per-awaiter cancellation (Handle:cancel() or
supersede via a stable `lsp:{method}:{sid}:{uri}` key), with
`$/cancelRequest` + `cancelled_rids` on abandonment to drop the
cancel/response race silently. Mirrors mcp.rs.
- Per-request timeout (default 10s, `pmacs.lsp.set_request_timeout_ms`):
an alive-but-silent server fails the await instead of hanging.
Lua surface:
- `_request_*_raw` job-id bindings (mirror `pmacs.mcp._send_request_raw`).
- builtin/runtime/lsp.lua: Handle wrappers + the four commands
rewritten to spawn `pmacs.async` coroutines that `:await()`;
`poll_until` removed. Server-gone / error surface as structured
await failures in the modeline.
Tests:
- pmacs_fake_lsp: `error` / `silent` modes for deterministic
failure-path coverage.
- 5 end-to-end await-path tests (success+store, server-error->failed,
server-stop->cancelled, timeout->failed, supersede->cancelled).

Land the Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration as a transport binding,
not a built-in feature. Six Lua functions plus userdata methods expose
the substance of three MCP feature areas (resources, tools, prompts), a
notification dispatcher, and a non-trivial AI-assistance example package
that meets the architectural ship gate (spec/pmacs-spec.tex:1572): zero
direct calls into the Rust core, zero special-cased MCP handling outside
the public API, source under 2000 lines of Lua.
The M9.5 -> M9.6 -> M9.7 -> M9.8 layered composition validates the claim
"AI is a transport binding, not a feature" -- pmacs-mcp-ai composes with
pmacs-mcp-prompts.render and inherits notification handling transitively
through M9.7's package, demonstrating that the AI domain is a layer
above MCP, not a thread woven through the core.
Subtask shape:
M9.1 stdio transport + initialize handshake + restart policy
M9.2 resources with in-flight + settled cache and per-uri invalidation
M9.3 tools with isError-vs-JSON-RPC-error semantics + cancellation
M9.4 prompts with required-argument validation
M9.5 notification dispatcher (on_notification, off_notification)
M9.6 tools-as-commands fixture package + 12 audit findings disposed
M9.7 prompts-as-result-buffers fixture package + tree-sitter-md grammar
M9.8 AI-assistance fixture package (363+ LoC; 17/17 acceptance tests)
M9.9 formal package audit -- PASS on all three criteria
