The Cargo.toml comment and the lane framing both cited docs/inline-math-framing.md,
which is an untracked, desktop-only doc — the path dangles on a fresh clone.
Point the Cargo.toml comment at the committed lane framing instead, and note the
parent's untracked status in the framing header (committing it as its own docs
PR, or listing it in the handoff's machine-local inventory, remains a tracked
follow-up).

Advance the framing to Revision 6 and record the strengthened non-CRDT,
Ctrl-C, strict-operand, probe-throttling, and PID-cleanup contracts. Update the
durable and volatile checkpoints to implementation commit 154cb9f.
Advance the active and durable checkpoints to 69825d0 and clarify that every
spawned managed daemon enters the named reaper before connection or handshake
work can fail.
Advance the framing to Revision 5 and record the reviewed lifecycle, CLI, and
acceptance contracts. Update the durable and volatile handoffs with checkpoint
82355ca and the completed verification matrix.
Carve the frontend-agnostic, conflict-free substrate out of the parent
inline-math arc: Stage 1 bundles a LaTeX/TeX grammar for .tex/.latex/.sty/.cls
highlighting; the math parser (Tier 2) and GPU render (Tier 4) are deferred to
the inline-math arc. Framing approved through three review rounds; provenance
diff of the chosen grammar crate against upstream latex-lsp is discharged
(grammar.js/scanner.c byte-identical).

Update the durable handoff and volatile active-work ledger for open PR #141, including the implementation checkpoint, accepted architecture, verification record, visible Wayland/Vulkan smoke, and cross-machine recovery commands.
Add the root --gpu broker, strict GPU entry points, daemon connect-or-start orchestration, process-group isolation, bounded retry, named child reaping, and a deterministic headless lifecycle probe. Cover the complete launch matrix with real subprocess acceptance, make root Cargo runs unambiguous, and document the coherent build and one-command workflow.
Record the approved managed-launch contract, daemon lifecycle and process-group rules, strict GPU CLI behavior, headless acceptance seam, and the complete acceptance matrix before implementation.
Advance canonical state to protocol v19, close the Vterm lane and roadmap arc, preserve the cross-PR integration lesson, mark PR #91 landed, and point machine-local housekeeping at the durable policy.
vterm-stage3-framing (superseded; content carried on vterm-gpu) and
tab-width-parity (merged via #137) were deleted with authorization —
worktree + local ref + githubsucks ref, origin tracking pruned. The
-framing branches for each are kept. Retires the now-dangling
superseded-lane recovery entry.
Integrates canonical `main` @ 2625ec7 after PR #137 (tab-width parity)
merged. The agreed order was #137 first, this lane second: #137 was
approved and FROZEN at 5b23e11, and "frozen" is incompatible with
"rebase onto the resulting main" — landing it second would have broken
its freeze and voided its approval.
Integrated by MERGING main into the branch rather than rebasing, matching
repo precedent (Merge canonical main into vterm-tui, ... into modeline
detection). A rebase would have force-pushed away the review anchors on
the two completed review rounds of #135.
Main had also moved past this lane's base by #133/#134/#136, so the
integration surface was wider than the #135/#137 overlap: src/
semantic_render.rs was a fourth overlapping code file. It auto-merged, as
did pmacs-protocol/src/lib.rs. The single code conflict was the
pmacs_protocol import list in pmacs-gpu/src/main.rs — TAB_STOP_COLUMNS
against the terminal types — resolved as a union.
The feared semantic collision did not occur, and this is verified rather
than assumed: terminal cell geometry still uses the monospace advance and
never TAB_STOP_COLUMNS. pmacs-gpu/src/terminal.rs references neither the
constant nor display_width, and terminal_cell_viewport / terminal_run_rect
/ hit_test_cell derive from mono_advance() and code_line_height() alone.
That separation is correct by construction: a terminal's columns come
from the child, while tab expansion is a document projection concern.
Doc conflicts resolved toward landed state: the tab-width lane moves to
"Closed since the last snapshot", the #135/#137 coordination section is
kept as a resolved worked example, and the Arc 5 lines in the roadmap and
handoff now read "implemented and in review". While resolving, restored a
clause main had dropped from the handoff's injection-follow-ups list
("literals, doc-comment code);"), keeping main's strikethrough-and-SHIPPED
convention for the modeline entry.
Post-integration gates, from a clean tree: cargo fmt --check; strict
workspace clippy; pmacs-protocol 17; cargo test --lib 1,768; --features
crdt 1,944 (3 ignored each); vterm Stage 1 9/10, Stage 2 4/4, Stage 3
5/7, statusline 7/8, tab-width 2/2 (default/CRDT); M4 121 passed (3
ignored, 1 filtered); required GPU 139; workspace sweep 2,946 passed
across 84 suites (19 ignored), one invocation; git diff --check clean.
PR #137 (tab-width-parity) is approved and frozen at 5b23e11. Neither
lane copies from or merges the other; whichever lands second rebases
onto the canonical resulting main and reruns the complete gate suite.
The overlap is pmacs-gpu/src/main.rs, pmacs-protocol/src/lib.rs,
Cargo.lock, and the two ledger docs. The lock and docs are mechanical;
the two source files are not — both PRs edit the GPU renderer's
measurement path and widen the protocol crate's export surface in the
same region, so a conflict-free apply is not evidence of a correct
merge.
One real defect, three cleanups, and a named deferral.
A daemon disconnect in terminal mode hid the disconnect notice. The
Disconnected arm set the placeholder text but never left terminal mode,
where the document code layer is not prepared at all and the terminal glyph
layer keeps painting its last frame — so the user was left looking at a
frozen, live-looking terminal that silently ignored input. GPU auto-reconnect
is a named deferral, so that state persisted until relaunch. State::
on_daemon_disconnected now leaves terminal mode, forces a repaint even when
the notice text is byte-identical, and requests a redraw.
The fix and its test share a file, so scripts/bite's file granularity cannot
bite it; the equivalent was done by hand. Neutralizing only the
exit_terminal_mode() call makes the test fail on the "must leave terminal
mode" assertion; restoring it makes it pass.
sync_semantic_terminal_layout no longer clones the whole visible cell grid to
read one size. It ran every dispatcher tick for any semantic frontend with a
declared terminal; TerminalManager::screen_size reads the value from the
borrowed projection instead.
Inbound terminal events now require a negotiated v19 session. The outbound
TerminalFrame was gated twice while TerminalResize/TerminalPointer relied on
the frontend's send gate alone. A pre-v19 peer cannot construct those
variants, so this only refuses a hand-rolled client — and the a32 forgery
tests already prove such an event reaches nothing but the sender's own
authenticated active view — but the asymmetry was not deliberate.
A terminal-mode press that misses the grid no longer arms a drag, so a later
in-grid motion cannot send a Drag with no preceding Down. Daemon-side impact
was nil; the state is now honest. A release still always ends the drag.
The roadmap and handoff Arc 5 lines still said Stage 3 was framed and
awaiting approval, contradicting this PR's own ledger. Both corrected.
Named deferral: terminal wheel gestures discard scroll magnitude. One winit
wheel event becomes one gesture regardless of the lines it accumulated, while
the document path scrolls by lines. Closing it means either N gestures
(chattier) or a magnitude field on the pointer event — a protocol change.
Neither belongs in this stage.
Gates: fmt; strict workspace clippy; 1,758 default + 1,934 CRDT library
tests; Stage 1 9/10, Stage 2 4/4, Stage 3 5/7, statusline 7/8
(default/CRDT); M4 120; required GPU 129; workspace sweep 2,923 across 83
suites; diff check clean.
Share one fixed eight-column tab-stop contract across core and GPU renderers. Consolidate byte-to-display-column accounting, expand GPU code tabs with source provenance, align caret/hit/decoration geometry, and refresh minimap projection on edits.
Five findings, all addressed. One was a real defect; one prediction did not
reproduce and is documented as such rather than papered over.
Hover no longer claims durable terminal control (finding 2, the real one).
apply_terminal_gesture claimed the controller before dispatching, including
for Move, which does nothing. A semantic frontend reports motion at pixel
rate, so sweeping the mouse across a passive split's terminal took durable
control, and the next layout sync resized the shared PTY to that background
view's geometry — precisely the theft the controller rule exists to prevent.
Bare motion no longer claims; every deliberate gesture still does.
scripts/bite HEAD src/editor.rs on the new test is a clean behavioral bite.
The terminal-mode presence-sweep skip is removed (finding 1), but the
predicted failure did NOT reproduce. The review reasoned that skipping the
sweep freezes last_broadcast at the abandoned document position. It does
not: the buffer-follow clears the terminal declaration when it ships the
snapshot, so terminal_active is false on the tick a window first shows a
terminal, and the declaration cannot arrive until a later tick — the
frontend learns the buffer id from that very snapshot. One truthful sweep
always lands first. The real-daemon two-frontend test written to catch the
freeze passes against the pre-fix tree; the bite is vacuous and the test is
labelled a regression guard, not fix evidence. The skip goes anyway: it was
load-bearing on tick ordering and bought nothing, and removing it makes
"presence follows the frontend" structural.
Terminal motion is deduplicated by cell (finding 3). Sub-cell motion
resolved to the same coordinate and still crossed the wire, where every
event is a daemon-side gesture. Press and release re-arm the memo so the
first drag after a press still reports. Its unit test cannot bite — the
seam did not exist pre-fix — and says so.
Declarations record only once sent (finding 4).
terminal_declaration_if_changed is now a pure query;
note_terminal_declaration_sent records. A failed write is retried instead of
suppressed as already-declared. The existing a35 test caught the contract
change and now pins both halves.
Unchanged frames skip revalidation (finding 5). The complete-payload
comparison runs before validate; only validated frames are ever stored, so a
frame equal to the baseline has already passed. The chrome tail is factored
into terminal_chrome so both exits emit it identically.
Gates: fmt; strict workspace clippy; 1,757 default + 1,933 CRDT library
tests; Stage 1 9/10, Stage 2 4/4, Stage 3 5/7, statusline 7/8
(default/CRDT); M4 120; required GPU 128; workspace sweep 2,921 across 83
suites; diff check clean.
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.
Vterm Stage 3 — the final vterm stage. A semantic frontend can now host a
terminal: the daemon ships complete validated cell grids, and pmacs-gpu
renders them with fixed-cell geometry, its own input path, and no document
projection at all.
Protocol v19 appends three variants after their enums' final v18 members:
InstanceMessage::TerminalFrame (daemon-gated), and FrontendEvent::
TerminalResize / TerminalPointer (frontend-gated). It is the first bump to
gate in both directions, so criterion 28 pins each filter independently and
byte pins on StatuslineSegments and MenuPointer guard the placements.
pmacs-protocol gains src/terminal.rs: the shared row/column/visible-cell/
grapheme/metadata bounds, TerminalProcessState, TerminalSelectionSpan, and
TerminalFrame::validate — the ONE structural policy the daemon runs before
emission and the frontend runs after decode. src/terminal/* re-exports them
so no duplicate type exists, and unicode-width becomes a workspace dependency
so the screen and the validator measure glyph columns with one table. A new
8 MiB aggregate glyph bound keeps the largest legal frame (measured:
13,437,863 bytes) under the unchanged 16 MiB transport cap rather than
widening every connection's allocation ceiling.
The semantic producer suppresses the whole document family for a terminal
buffer while keeping the status band, theme, font, statusline, menu, and
minibuffer, and compares the complete ordered payload rather than
screen_generation — scroll, selection, and process state all change without
advancing it.
Two things the framing did not spell out, both found by the real-daemon
acceptance:
The Viewport gate keys on the authenticated source's ACTIVE buffer, not the
buffer the message names. Viewport also aligns the window to what it
declares, so a stale document viewport in flight when a command opened a
terminal dragged the frontend straight back off it: the window oscillated,
every terminal declaration was refused, and no frame ever arrived, with
nothing logged anywhere.
The producer clears terminal mode on every exit path. The daemon uses that
flag to suppress CursorByte and the presence sweep, so an early return that
left it set kept both suppressed after the frontend returned to a document.
pmacs-gpu/src/terminal.rs is a pure cell-space paint planner, unit-testable
without a GPU. The renderer builds one shaped buffer per text run, so a wide
or cluster glyph's advance can never choose the next column's origin.
Criterion 37 needed a seam rather than a fixture: pmacs-gpu depends only on
pmacs-protocol, so attach::connect's reader sink was generalized and a
--headless-probe mode added. The acceptance drives a real daemon, a real
/bin/sh child, the real attach client, and real composited pixels in one
path — which is how both defects above were found.

Revision 8 of docs/vterm-framing.md was reviewed and approved on the
documentation branch vterm-stage3-framing. Stage 3 is implemented on this
branch, cut from canonical main, rather than stacked on that branch.
The framing locks additive protocol v19 (TerminalFrame, TerminalResize,
TerminalPointer), an 8 MiB aggregate glyph-byte bound under the unchanged
16 MiB transport cap, dual viewport declaration after every semantic
snapshot, authenticated per-view routing, and a fixed-cell native GPU
renderer. Criteria 28-37 are the scope of this branch.
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.
Integrate landed Vterm Stage 2 before the approved modeline merge. Preserve the
active modeline lane in the volatile ledger and record the full integrated gate
results.
Parse bounded Emacs and Vim modelines, normalize common aliases, and give
explicit file metadata precedence over inferred language. Pin one fresh-load
language decision for syntax, LSP, pairing, comments, and initial major mode,
while preserving the LSP path guard and explicit mode overrides.
Cover supported forms, rejection boundaries, precedence, unknown modes,
shebang and modeline pinning, reopen behavior, and pathless buffers.
Match Vim's real direct and set-form tokenization, reject nonexistent colon
assignments, clarify suffix scanning and trust, extend aliases, and pin the
shebang-edit regression in acceptance.
Update the durable handoff and active-work ledger with the second-review
fix checkpoint and exact final gate evidence.
