Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The change reroutes detected terminal editors to the system opener, but env --split-string and the documented long Emacs terminal-mode option can still bypass detection and launch a TUI without a PTY, potentially leaving detached editor processes behind. Merge readiness is moderate until these bounded detection gaps are fixed or explicitly accepted. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 24 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

Greptile SummaryThis PR detects configured terminal editors and redirects them to the system opener rather than launching them without a PTY. The wrapper fix remains incomplete for options that take separate operands.
Confidence Score: 4/5The PR is not yet safe to merge because operand-taking wrapper options can still bypass terminal-editor detection and launch an unusable detached process. The new wrapper parser does not consume the operand to options such as Files Needing Attention: Packages/macOS/CmuxWorkspaces/Sources/CmuxWorkspaces/FileOpen/PreferredEditorService.swift Important Files Changed

- Around line 61-64: Update the executable classification logic in
PreferredEditorService so that when encountering -S or --split-string, it parses
the following argument with shellWords and incorporates the resulting tokens
before selecting the executable; preserve one authoritative classification path
and ensure open(_:) does not launch unsupported detached editors.
- Around line 107-109: Update isTerminalEditorCommand so Emacs commands are
classified as terminal editors when their arguments contain either -nw or
--no-window-system, preserving the existing graphical Emacs behavior otherwise.
- Around line 33-112: Mark the pure value-processing members
terminalEditorNames, isTerminalEditorCommand, and shellWords as nonisolated
within the `@MainActor` PreferredEditorService, without changing their parsing
behavior.

Summary
A configured TUI command such as
nvimcannot render when launched from cmux’s GUI process without a PTY. The old preferred-editor path spawned it with silenced standard streams and left the editor and plugin children alive.This change:
