Two jobs: absorb the CI CRDT coverage lane now that #209 has merged, and
clear documentation drift that predates it and was found while reading
in on a new machine.
ABSORPTION. docs/active-work.md's lane is REWRITTEN, not removed —
rule 4 removes a lane when its ARC is done, and three named follow-ons
remain. It shrinks from 10,441 to 3,037 characters because rule 3 puts
durable architecture in the handoff and leaves only volatile state here.
The follow-ons, each with its reason:
* the macOS crdt leg, deferred pending first-run evidence that NOW
EXISTS and is favourable — the non-crdt macOS legs pass at 3,474,
thirteen fewer than ubuntu's 3,487 purely from cfg-compilation of
the Linux-gated process tests, and no crdt-specific failure appeared
anywhere;
* the --lib --features crdt flake, which did NOT reproduce in #209's
runs — but every run was --test-threads=1 and the trigger was seen
under PARALLEL load, so that is consistent with the drain_until
hypothesis rather than evidence against it. Its own PR: a
product-defect hypothesis, where all of #209 was configuration;
* the crdt_replica serde default, a third default mechanism that
disagrees with the Default impl in non-CRDT builds, untestable
without a self-describing format this crate does not depend on.
Five durable facts move to the handoff §1, each of which contradicted
something previously recorded: gpu-render runs a DIFFERENT PACKAGE than
the suites the old fix-shape wanted moved there; PMACS_REQUIRE_GPU is
absent from two of the four GPU suites; m10_10_perf is a CI-default
tripwire rather than a bench; --keep-going is what makes a clippy run an
inventory instead of a lower bound; and a feature can matter to a crate
a per-test census scores as unaffected.
DRIFT, all of it predating this lane and all found while reading in:
* COHERENCE.md §20's Priority 1 still read "runs to step 5; thin from
step 6" and called Stage 1b-3 "in flight", while §0's scorecard said
step 10 and 1b-3 had landed. §20 is a REQUIRED FRAMING INPUT per
CLAUDE.md, so a stale priority annotation there does not just sit
wrong — it misdirects the next framing doc written against it. Its
arc-cuts list carried the same two errors.
* docs/agent-handoff.md §1 described Discovery Stage 1 and Journey
1b-3 as "IMPLEMENTED, PR open" while §1a, twenty lines above,
correctly recorded both as merged. A file that contradicts itself is
worse than one that is merely behind.
* docs/side-quest-backlog.md, compiled 2026-07-14, listed #123 as an
open PR (merged 2026-07-21), #137 as "in review" (merged), and
HTML/CSS as an unshipped grammar (#146 shipped it AND its injection
consumers). It is the cross-cutting index, so a stale entry sends
someone to build something that already exists. Its north-star
section now says plainly that every original item has shipped and
that the file no longer sets direction — COHERENCE.md §20 and the
handoff §1a do, and both postdate it.
* docs/json-yaml-framing.md's status line advertised "PR #123 open and
awaiting review" for six weeks after that PR merged. Corrected in
the status line only; the revision-4 body is the as-reviewed text
and is left unedited.
No code, no workflow, no protocol change.

Mark PR #134 as shipped in the durable handoff, framing, and side-quest
backlog. Remove the completed volatile lane and advance the canonical recovery
anchor to the merge commit.
Advance the durable baseline to PR #132, remove the completed volatile lane,
and record the shared language pin, bounded modeline contract, Vterm Stage 2
landing, remaining deferrals, and current roadmap state.
Move mode-system wiring from the active ledger into the durable handoff,
refresh the side-quest priorities, and preserve the macOS acceptance lessons
from the final CI review round.
Merges canonical main up to 2e37c04 and records the second of the two
arcs that landed while this lane was open. Vterm Stage 1 (#126) was
already recorded; this adds the config registry and reconciles every
claim the two merges falsified.
Handoff §1: main pointer moved to 2e37c04, and a config-registry entry
covering the parts a future agent cannot re-derive from the code --- the
always-store rule and why the "equal-value set is a no-op" reading
silently voids a buffer-local pin; the two-scope model and the
no-ambient-buffer contract on get(name); explicit-dispose-only listener
lifetime and the absence of any MetaMethod::Gc; the InitCompleteFlag
freeze that kept editor.rs untouched; and the strict-registry /
lenient-wrapper split that preserves trim_on_save("yes") and
interval_ms(1500.7).
Handoff §5 gains two lessons. Tab width is a rendering-parity bug, not
a config gap: five sites across two crates with two different values,
and no tab expansion at all on the GPU main text path, so
editor.tab-width is the obvious-looking first adopter and is not one.
And "a test that never runs passes" --- pmacs.editor.save() is the raw
save while buffer.before-save fires inside the buffer.save COMMAND, and
save() no-ops on an unmodified buffer, which made two review-round tests
vacuous until the buffer was dirtied and the command invoked.
Handoff §6: the three config-registry-blocked deferrals are resolved
(the per-buffer auto-pair toggle shipped as editing.auto-pair), replaced
by the registry's own named deferrals --- persistence, list-settings, a
settings completion source, table-valued settings, the unmigrated scalar
setters, and a scope = "global" flag, since set_local is currently
accepted for autosave.interval-ms where a per-buffer value is
meaningless.
active-work.md: base pointer and recovery assertion moved to 2e37c04;
the Vterm Stage 2 lane is told to cut from current main rather than
643d1e1; a closed-since-last-snapshot section records the merged lane
and the parallel-lane result --- two arcs in sibling worktrees with the
shared files assigned one lane each in advance rebased with zero
conflicts, which is worth repeating and states its precondition.
side-quest-backlog.md: both original north-star items have now shipped,
so the board is re-ranked to locals-query processing, mode-system wiring
(promoted --- every editor resolve still passes &[], making it the
largest remaining scoping gap), and tab-width parity. The config-registry
entry is struck and tab width is split out of it, since listing tab
width as a config consequence is what made it look like a cheap adopter.
Documentation only: the diff against main touches no runtime code.

Add synchronized agent bootstraps and a volatile active-work ledger so
another machine can distinguish durable project state from open
branches, local checkpoints, machine-only providers, and incomplete
verification. Record githubsucks/main as the canonical development
line, refresh the #124/protocol-v17 handoff, correct the current
keybinding reference for compile mode, and mark the July roadmap as a
historical snapshot.
Post-merge handoff sync for multi-language injections (#122), folded
into the side-quest-backlog PR (rebased onto current main, which now
carries #120 themes stage 1 and #122 injections).
agent-handoff.md:
- §1: main head → 5e73966; add the #122 injection-engine entry (layered
ParseTreeBundle, worker-side layer building off the static grammar
table, settle-time query resolution, the new substrate — injections_query,
the alias snapshot, injection_capped, compute_highlight_spans_for, the
flatten event-sweep, the GPU fold — and the two hard-won findings).
- §6: the "multi-language injections" deferral is retired; replaced with
the real follow-ups (injection.combined, child-tree incrementality,
injectable Lua-registered languages, HTML/CSS/GraphQL/SQL consumer
grammars). Jupyter is now gated on JSON only.
side-quest-backlog.md: injections marked SHIPPED with its remaining
follow-ups; Jupyter gate and north star revised (JSON grammar and
locals-query processing rise to the top now that injections landed).

Consolidate the non-themes backlog into docs/side-quest-backlog.md: an
exhaustive, deduplicated index compiled from every framing doc's
"Deferred (named)" section, the handoff §6 list, the roadmap arcs, and a
code-level marker sweep. Organized as side quests (one-shot-ish, led by
the highlighting/detection/LSP/editing families that continue the
#114–#118 stack), raid bosses (vterm, folding, DAP, GPU splits, Jupyter),
cross-cutting substrate blockers, and a prioritization north star.
Themes/faces/color items are excluded (they're the Arc 4 main quest) and
listed once so they're visibly accounted for. Handoff §6 gains a pointer
to it.
Docs only. git diff --check clean.
