pmacs-gpu now has two run modes:
- no args: hello-world (session-2 behavior preserved)
- --attach <socket>: connect to a pmacs daemon, negotiate
semantic_render + crdt_replica, import BufferSnapshot into a local
loro replica, render the rope text. Live CrdtOp updates apply as
they arrive.
Architecture:
- pmacs-gpu/src/attach.rs (new): UnixStream connect + Hello /
AttachRequest handshake on the main thread; spawns a reader thread
that pumps decoded InstanceMessage frames through the winit
EventLoopProxy as AppEvent::Attach(AttachEvent::Message). Clean EOF
or transport errors surface as AttachEvent::Disconnected. Reader
thread holds the read half of the stream; AttachClient retains the
write half (unused yet — session 4 wires FrontendEvents back).
- pmacs-gpu/src/main.rs: ApplicationHandler<AppEvent> with a
user_event handler that dispatches Message variants. BufferSnapshot
builds a fresh LoroDoc, imports the snapshot bytes, extracts text
via doc.get_text('body').to_string(), and re-shapes the glyphon
buffer. CrdtOp passes the op bytes through doc.import (loro
accepts both shapes), re-extracts text, re-shapes. Other
InstanceMessage variants are intentionally ignored at session 3.
- Font size dropped from 48pt to 16pt now that we may render full
files (the hello-world 48pt was fine for one line, awful for code).
- Initial text is '(connecting...)' in attach mode, 'hello, pmacs' in
hello-world; attach failure falls back to '(attach failed; see
stderr)' so the window still opens.
One small finding logged in attach.rs's connect() doc: AttachRequest's
initial_size field is a CellSize (rows × cols), nominally
TUI-shaped. Sent as a placeholder (24×80) — a structural answer
('what does initial size mean for a pixel frontend?') belongs in its
own protocol thread, not session 3. Classified under rule (iii) as
deferred.
Container id for the loro text container ('body') hardcoded to match
pmacs::crdt::CrdtState — second finding worth pre-recording: the
container name is a wire-adjacent convention that isn't carried on
the wire itself. Both ends have to agree out-of-band. Not blocking
for session 3 but a structural smell for the producer arc. Logged
as deferred (rule iii structural; the answer is probably 'thread the
container id through BufferSnapshot' but it's not session-3 scope).
Gates: cargo fmt, cargo clippy --all-targets -D warnings (whole
workspace) clean; lib 1303 + pmacs-protocol 11 = 1314 unchanged;
m4_acceptance 83; m11_5_semantic_acceptance --features crdt 2.
Manual validation pending — agent environment is headless. User
walks through: start a pmacs daemon, run pmacs-gpu --attach <socket>,
confirm the window renders the daemon's file contents.
