Land the optimistic local-edit-application layer on top of the M10 CRDT
foundation: frontend-side rope replica with local edit application,
daemon-authoritative broadcast, and bidirectional cursor reconciliation.
Keystrokes feel instantaneous because the local replica answers next-render
queries before the daemon round-trip completes, while the daemon remains
the single source of truth for conflict resolution and broadcast to remote
replicas.
Architecture beats:
- BufferMirror (src/buffer_mirror.rs) holds a per-frontend rope replica
with explicit cursor-staleness tracking. Every event that may move the
active cursor or swap the active buffer marks the mirror stale; the
next CursorByte from the daemon clears it.
- CrdtOpOrigin {OptimisticReplica(FrontendId), DaemonKey} routes broadcast.
OptimisticReplica skips re-application on the originating frontend
(already applied locally); DaemonKey broadcasts to all replicas including
source -- covers Lua-driven and generated-buffer edits that bypass the
optimistic path.
- Generated buffers (*help*, *workers*, *pmacs-instance*, *errors*) funnel
apply_edit output through queue_daemon_origin_crdt_op so post-attach
CRDT upgrades don't drop their edits.
- forbid(unsafe_code) preserved throughout; loro 1.12 added as the CRDT
engine.
Audit posture: M10.10 shipped through six post-audit review rounds with
twenty-eight cumulative findings, most categorized as "incomplete
application of a prior round's mechanism." The audit doc records
grep-driven exhaustiveness as the standing countermeasure.
