Cloud machine terminals switch from an exec attach pane (the full cmux-tui attach TUI running inside a local PTY) to Ghostty manual IO: the pane's surface parses daemon bytes fed by a new renderer-less relay, cmux-tui attach --terminal <id> --pipe-io, running against the machine link's local mux socket. Only cloud machine terminals change; local terminals, ssh workspaces, and remote tmux mirrors keep their paths.

Rust relay (attach --pipe-io)

Extracted from the feat-tui-manual-io branch (#10742) and rebased on main: stdout carries the daemon replay then live PTY output, with a full reset (ESC c + erase-scrollback) before any replay that is not the relay's first output, because a replay replaces terminal state while a byte stream appends. stdin takes JSON lines {"input":"<base64>"} / {"resize":{"cols":N,"rows":N}}; stderr ends with one machine-readable exit reason. Exit 0 = terminal ended or embedder closed stdin (never respawn); exit 2 = daemon lost (respawn to resync from a fresh replay). On stream loss the relay probes the daemon once to distinguish a closed terminal from a daemon outage. The daemon-side vt remains the single reply authority, pinned by an e2e test asserting an inner DSR query is answered exactly once. The resource-boundary lint failure that blocked #10742 ('surface' in public help text) is fixed here, and the flag is documented in spec/cli.md.

Swift pump, scoped to cloud

TuiManualIOPump owns one relay per cloud terminal pane: pumps relay stdout into the manual-mirror surface through the reviewed remote-output lane, forwards the surface's encoded input to relay stdin, and drives daemon-side sizing from applied resizes. Because the surface parses the daemon terminal's own byte stream, input encodings always match the daemon's mode state; the exec bridge's mode-mirroring bug class cannot exist on this path.

Reconnects: connecting → live → reconnecting(n) → live | ended | failed. Backoff 0.5s..30s cap; explained daemon-lost exits retry forever; five consecutive unexplained failures park in a failed overlay with manual Retry; a respawn resyncs by resetting the surface before the fresh replay; offline input is dropped, never queued. The pane reuses the cloud terminal reconnect overlay, and its Reconnect button skips the pump's remaining backoff. Panel close stops the relay (stdin EOF = clean detach; the daemon terminal survives in the machine's session); a detach transfer keeps the pump alive because the registry is keyed by the stable surface id.

Wiring: CmuxTuiSurfaceProvider decides once per open (fresh materialization and restored-pane re-projection share openTerminalPane), and the attach descriptor threads through SurfacePaneFactory and the control-surface layer (app-internal parameter, never parseable from socket params) into the workspace's existing terminal creation seams, so tab and split placements both work.

Gating and version skew

cloud.beta.terminalManualIO.enabled (Settings > Beta Features > "Cloud Terminal Manual IO", default on) gates the path; off falls back to the exec attach pane. The bundled cmux-tui client comes from a rolling artifacts manifest, so an app can carry a client older than --pipe-io; a cached --help probe detects that and silently uses the exec pane instead of crash-looping the relay.

Tests

  • Rust e2e (tests/cli.rs): replay-on-reconnect, exit-reason classification, startup connect failure reports daemon-lost, resize reaches the daemon PTY, inner DSR query answered exactly once.
  • Swift (TuiManualIOPumpTests): relay exit classification (including "exit 2 without a reason line is a usage error, not a retryable outage"), respawn decision, backoff pacing, stdin wire format, both relay argv forms (session and --socket), overlay presentation mapping, input channel pause/drop semantics, registry replace/remove.

Localization audit: new Settings strings (settings.betaFeatures.cloudTerminalManualIO*) and overlay strings (tui.overlay.*) are in Resources/Localizable.xcstrings with en and ja; the curated settings-search entry is registered. No other user-facing strings added.

Relation to #10742: this PR carries the relay and pump forward to main scoped to cloud attachments only; the local daemon-backed tab work in #10742/#10408 can rebase onto it and delete its copies.

Dogfood round 2: resize and grid-desync fixes

Resizing felt laggy and pane vs PTY grids desynced. Two causes, two fixes:

Ack-clocked latest-wins resize. The pump forwarded every applied size sample immediately, and the relay applies each one as a synchronous resize-surface round trip on the same stdin thread that carries keystrokes — one divider drag on a cloud link queued dozens of stale sizes and stalled input behind them. The pump now keeps at most one resize in flight and remembers only the newest pending sample, clocked by the relay's existing per-resize {"diag":{"resize":…}} stderr line (2 s liveness timeout). stderr moved from a blocking drain to a streaming line reader; exit classification is unchanged. Local daemons (sub-ms acks) keep send-every-sample behavior; slow links converge on the final size after one round trip.

Geometry authority follows user input. Session restore recreates every workspace that ever viewed a terminal; every restored pane's relay claims geometry authority at attach, last claim wins, so a hidden duplicate frozen at a mid-layout grid could own the PTY size while the visible pane rendered its real grid — and the visible pane's resizes were recorded but never applied. The relay gains a third stdin verb, {"claim":{"geometry":true}} (older relays ignore unknown keys), and the pump sends it ahead of user input, throttled to once per 5 s per relay. The pane the user types in owns the PTY size. Verified live: a second 60x20 attachment shrank the PTY, one typed command in the pane restored 147x65. E2E pipe_io_claim_line_reclaims_geometry_authority covers steal → reclaim → post-reclaim resize.

Known trade-offs: input typed during an in-flight resize can wait up to one link round trip (same relay stdin); a pane resized but never typed in does not steal authority back until its first keystroke.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to f85b1

The cloud-terminal manual-IO path can leave panes stuck, show stale recovery state, or fail to reconnect after daemon loss, and geometry can remain out of sync between attachments. These bounded recovery and lifecycle issues should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description is detailed and relevant. It explains the change, rationale, implementation, fallback behavior, reconnect handling, testing, and known trade-offs. The template's Demo Video, Review Trigger, and Checklist sections are not included, but the description is otherwise substantially complete.

Full details: Cmux Swift Actor Isolation

Explanation

No new actor-isolation failure condition is introduced. The new relay probe is an actor. The pump and registry are explicitly @MainActor. Cross-thread input and stderr helpers use @unchecked Sendable with mutex-protected mutable state and documented safety. Process, stderr, and output callbacks hop to @MainActor where they access pump or UI state. The settings toggle is an explicitly @MainActor SwiftUI view. New value data such as CloudTuiManualIOAttach is Sendable, and the pure policy models are not MainActor-bound. No new async service protocol or unisolated UI-store access from a background context appears in the diff.

Full details: Cmux Swift Blocking Runtime

Explanation

The PR introduces Task.sleep in new production Swift runtime paths. CloudTuiManualIO.swift:93 sleeps for 10 seconds while probing attach --help; TuiManualIOPump.swift:425 defaults its injected sleeper to Task.sleep, which drives the production resize-ack timeout at line 556 and reconnect backoff at line 768. The rule explicitly fails production Task.sleep, including inside async functions, and these calls are not test-only scaffolding. The new CloudTuiManualIO.swift and TuiManualIOPump.swift files are introduced by the PR.

Resolution

Replace the production Task.sleep calls with the approved cancellation-aware timer/scheduler or explicit completion mechanism. Use a timer/deadline abstraction for the 10-second process-probe deadline and resize-ack liveness timeout. Use a cancellation-aware reconnect scheduler or state-transition/timer callback for relay backoff. Keep deterministic injected timing only in tests.

Full details: Cmux Browser Automation Off-Main

Explanation

PASS — the cumulative PR diff against origin/main changes 21 terminal, cloud TUI, Rust relay, settings, and lifecycle files. It does not change Sources/TerminalController.swift or Packages/macOS/CmuxControlSocket/.../ControlCommandExecutionPolicy.swift, and added lines contain no browser.* socket command, WebKit wait, worker-router, or policy-routing change. The generic SurfacePaneFactory plumbing preserves the existing browser path and passes the new attach parameter as nil; no browser automation command is moved or worsened.

Full details: Cmux Expensive Synchronous Load

Explanation

PASS. The PR diff adds no RestorableAgentSessionIndex.load(), SharedLiveAgentIndex replacement, agent-store/transcript/trajectory/JSONL load, directory scan, or per-record syscall on an interactive Swift path. The changed workspace close path only stops a relay pump. New file access checks and JSON parsing handle the bundled client and small relay diagnostics, not agent history; the client probe is actor-backed and asynchronous. Existing agent-index references in Workspace.swift remain unchanged.

Full details: Cmux Cache Substitution Correctness

Explanation

PASS. The Swift diff does not replace a fresh authoritative read in a persistence, history, undo, or snapshot path. The only new cache is CloudTuiPipeIOProbe.results, which caches the non-persistent attach --help capability probe by client path and modification time. A cold cache runs probeHelp, and a changed modification time selects a new cache entry. The restored-pane code still uses the existing catalog.snapshot; the diff only changes how the pane is opened. No TypeScript or JavaScript files changed.

Full details: Cmux No Hacky Sleeps

Explanation

PASS: The custom check is not applicable. The PR diff from base 750354e to HEAD changes only Swift, Rust, localization, documentation, and Xcode project files. It adds no TypeScript, JavaScript, shell, or non-Swift build/runtime-script file. Therefore, the rule does not define a failure for this diff, even though Rust and Swift code contain timing logic.

Full details: Cmux Algorithmic Complexity

Explanation

PASS — the production changes do not introduce a prohibited scalable-collection algorithm. The new pump uses fixed/bounded process buffers and queues, the resize scheduler keeps one in-flight item plus one pending item, and the client capability probe uses dictionary lookup with a path/mtime cache. The relay performs one linear tree lookup during loss classification. The nested reprojectRestoredPanes projection scan and SurfaceCatalog.projections(of:) filter/sort were already present and remain unchanged. Tests and localization changes do not apply.

Full details: Cmux Swift Concurrency

Explanation

PASS. The Swift diff adds no Combine state and no new completion-handler API. The new pump uses async/async let and stores and cancels its lifecycle tasks (stdoutTask, retryTask, and resizeAckTimeoutTask). The only custom DispatchQueue is TuiManualIOInputChannel.queue, which serializes potentially blocking FileHandle writes originating from Ghostty's required nonisolated I/O callback; this is an OS/third-party callback boundary, not ordinary async work. The unstored Task { @mainactor ... } calls only bridge FileHandle and Process callbacks to the main actor, which the rule allows. Existing Workspace Combine state was not introduced by this diff.

Full details: Cmux Swift `@Concurrent`

Explanation

PASS. The changed Swift code introduces no invalid @concurrent annotation and no changed nonisolated async helper that lacks a required global-executor boundary. CloudTuiManualIO.clientSupportsPipeIO is a thin async wrapper; its file-attribute and Process probe work runs behind the explicit CloudTuiPipeIOProbe actor hop. The new provider helper is @MainActor coordination and awaits actor-isolated link/probe operations. TuiManualIOPump is intentionally @MainActor for surface state, while pipe input and stderr handling use GCD callbacks. Other new tasks explicitly use Task { @mainactor ... }. These patterns match the rule's allowed UI-bound async work and actor methods.

Full details: Cmux Swift Package Boundaries

Explanation

The PR adds 896 lines of new production logic to Sources/TuiManualIOPump.swift, which the Xcode project places in the app target. The file contains independently testable relay protocol logic, exit classification, retry policy, JSON wire encoding, resize scheduling, input-channel behavior, and stderr framing. cmuxTests/TuiManualIOPumpTests.swift tests these parts without app launch or daemon access. The new SwiftPM package manifests and package source trees have no corresponding target. The Ghostty surface and Workspace wiring can remain in the app, but the protocol and state-policy core matches the boundary rule's explicit failure conditions.

Resolution

Create a small SwiftPM package, such as package Packages/macOS/CmuxTuiManualIO with target CmuxTuiManualIOCore and a package test target. Move the app-independent TuiManualIORelayTarget, relay exit and retry policy, wire encoders, TuiManualIOGrid, TuiManualIOResizeScheduler, and pipe/input framing helpers into that target. Expose public enum TuiManualIOPumpPolicy as the first public API. Keep TuiManualIOPump's Ghostty TerminalSurface integration, localized overlay mapping, pump registry, cloud settings, and Workspace composition in the app target. Update the app and tests to depend on the new target.

Full details: Cmux Swiftpm Lockfiles

Explanation

PASS. The effective PR diff from merge base 750354e109e601162c0bdc8d37ca75f5e35989f4 changes only cmux.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj among policy-relevant paths. That change adds Swift source file references and build-phase entries. It does not change XCRemoteSwiftPackageReference, XCSwiftPackageProductDependency, package products, repository URLs, or requirements. No Package.swift, Package.resolved, .gitignore, or workflow file changes are present. Therefore, the rule's Xcode package-reference and standalone SwiftPM resolution failure conditions do not apply.

Full details: Cmux Swift Logging

Explanation

PASS. The Swift diff adds no print, debugPrint, dump, NSLog, or new Logger declaration. The only new diagnostics use cmuxDebugLog under #if DEBUG, which the rule allows. Pipe and FileHandle operations carry relay protocol data and do not write diagnostic logs. The changed diagnostics record state, timing, process status, grid size, a bounded terminal ID prefix, and a bounded stderr tail; the existing cmux debug sink redacts stderr fields.

Full details: Cmux User-Facing Error Privacy

Explanation

The PR adds recovery overlays that expose implementation details: “The session daemon is unreachable,” “Terminal relay unavailable,” and “The daemon-backed terminal has ended.” These strings are wired through TuiManualIOPump.overlayPresentation and returned by Workspace.cloudTerminalReconnectOverlayPresentation, so they are shown in the cloud terminal UI. The new cmux-tui attach --pipe-io command also writes error.to_string() into stderr diagnostics for resize and geometry-claim failures. RemoteRequestError formats raw remote rejection text, so this path can expose an upstream/API error message in command output.

Resolution

Replace the overlay text with generic cmux/product terms, such as “Cloud terminal unavailable” and “Cloud terminal session ended,” while keeping the retry and reopen actions. Do not include “daemon” or “relay” in user-visible recovery copy. In pipe-io diagnostics, emit only stable safe status or error codes and keep raw remote error text in sanitized internal logs. Apply the same sanitization to any propagated pipe-io startup errors.

Full details: Cmux Full Internationalization

Explanation

The PR adds nine user-facing Swift localization keys and routes their text through String(localized:defaultValue:), but each new key in Resources/Localizable.xcstrings has values only for en and ja. The touched catalog already contains 20 supported locales: ar, bs, da, de, en, es, fr, it, ja, km, ko, nb, pl, pt-BR, ru, th, tr, uk, zh-Hans, and zh-Hant. This leaves 18 locale entries missing for every new settings and terminal-overlay key.

Resolution

Add translated catalog values for ar, bs, da, de, es, fr, it, km, ko, nb, pl, pt-BR, ru, th, tr, uk, zh-Hans, and zh-Hant to all nine new keys in Resources/Localizable.xcstrings: settings.betaFeatures.cloudTerminalManualIO, .subtitleOn, .subtitleOff, tui.overlay.reconnecting.title, .detail, tui.overlay.failed.title, .detail, tui.overlay.ended.title, and .detail. Use actual translations, not copied English or placeholders.

Full details: Cmux Swiftui State Layout

Explanation

PASS: The SwiftUI diff only adds one @State field of type DefaultsValueModel&lt;Bool&gt;, initializes it, observes it from the existing .task lifecycle hook, and adds a SettingsCardRow with a Toggle action binding. DefaultsValueModel is already @MainActor @Observable``, so it uses the required modern observation shape. The changed view adds no ObservableObject, `@Published`, `@StateObject`, `@EnvironmentObject`, `GeometryReader`, lazy/list row subtree, or render-time state mutation.

Full details: Cmux Architecture Rethink

Explanation

The diff introduces a process-wide lifecycle side channel for cloud terminal pumps. Sources/TuiManualIOPump.swift:790-807 adds TuiManualIOPumpRegistry.shared with mutable [UUID: TuiManualIOPump] state. Workspace.makeCloudTuiManualIOPanel creates and registers the pump at Sources/Workspace.swift:8940-8954, while overlay lookup, reconnect handling, and panel teardown independently consult the registry at Sources/Workspace.swift:7156, Sources/Workspace+RemoteSessionLifecycle.swift:198, and Sources/Workspace+PanelLifecycle.swift:467. TerminalPanel owns the surface and workspace lifecycle, but it does not own the pump. This splits lifecycle ownership and leaves stale or mismatched pump state representable when panel, surface, and transfer/close paths diverge. It violates the rule's singleton/side-channel and split-owner conditions. The changed file is absent from the base revision, so this is pull-request-caused.

Resolution

Remove TuiManualIOPumpRegistry.shared. Make the existing surface/panel lifecycle owner retain the manual-IO controller, and construct it with the TerminalPanel/TerminalSurface in the workspace creation seam. Resolve overlay state and reconnect actions through that owned panel/controller, not through a UUID-keyed global lookup. Make panel close and detach transfer invoke the controller's stop/retain transition exactly once. The first migration cut should add the owned controller to TerminalPanel, replace the three registry call sites, delete the registry, and add lifecycle tests for close, transfer, and replacement.

Full details: Cmux Swift Auxiliary Window Close Shortcuts

Explanation

The PR does not add or materially change a standalone cmux-owned window. The Swift diff adds cloud terminal panes and a manual-mirror TerminalSurface, which are allowed terminal panes. No changed Swift hunk adds NSWindow, NSPanel, NSWindowController, SwiftUI Window/WindowGroup, a window identifier, or custom Cmd+W routing. The deterministic lint passes: scripts/lint_auxiliary_window_close_shortcuts.py checked 36 identifiers.

Full details: Cmux Source Artifacts

Explanation

PASS. The diff from the PR base contains only normal Swift/Rust source, test files, the Xcode project file, CLI documentation, and the localization catalog. The four added files are source or tests, and the project file registers them as build inputs. No changed path is under a prohibited scratch or artifact directory, and no log, image, recording, archive, cache, build output, or binary artifact appears. The localization catalog remains valid JSON.

Full details: Cmux No Test Or Debug Seam In Production Source

Explanation

PASS. The PR adds no test/debug observability seam in production Swift source. The only new #if DEBUG blocks are diagnostic CMUXDebugLog imports and logging in Sources/Cloud/CloudTuiManualIO.swift and Sources/TuiManualIOPump.swift, which match the rule's allowed logging case. New production members use normal feature and relay names, and production call sites use them. The Swift tests are in cmuxTests/ and access shared internal policy types directly; the PR does not add a test-only accessor, debug-named member, or widened visibility plus wrapper accessor.

Full details: Cmux No Ambient Global State

Explanation

The PR introduces multiple ambient global surfaces in production Swift. Sources/Cloud/CloudTuiManualIO.swift:33-46 adds the caseless, static-helper namespace CloudTuiManualIO; its isEnabled also reads UserDefaults.standard. Line 54 adds the new runtime singleton CloudTuiPipeIOProbe.shared, which owns a process-wide probe cache. Sources/TuiManualIOPump.swift:20-200 adds the caseless, mostly-static TuiManualIOPumpPolicy namespace. Line 791 adds TuiManualIOPumpRegistry.shared, which owns the runtime pump map. The base revision contains none of these new surfaces. These match the rule's explicit failures for static-only namespaces and new singletons.

Resolution

Move the cloud gate and help-probe cache into a constructable cloud manual-IO service. Inject UserDefaults and an instance of CloudTuiPipeIOProbe into the cloud surface provider at its construction seam. Move TuiManualIOPumpPolicy behavior onto an injectable policy instance or onto TuiManualIOPump; keep pure local helpers private or fileprivate where appropriate. Make TuiManualIOPumpRegistry a constructable instance owned by the app/workspace lifecycle, create it at the app seam, and inject it into CmuxTuiSurfaceProviderRegistry, Workspace, and the panel/reconnect lifecycle paths instead of using .shared.

194-207: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Return retryNow()'s actual outcome instead of an unconditional true.

This branch returns true whenever a pump is registered for the surface, even when pump.retryNow() is a documented no-op (.connecting, .live, .ended states). In the .ended case, nothing was retried, but the caller receives the same success signal as an actual respawn. Elsewhere in this file (reconnectRemoteConnection), the Bool return is an honest "did a reconnect actually happen" signal; this branch breaks that contract.

Have retryNow() return whether it took action, and propagate that value here instead of a fixed true.

🛠️ Proposed fix
     if let pump = TuiManualIOPumpRegistry.shared.pump(forSurfaceID: surfaceId) {
-        pump.retryNow()
-        return true
+        return pump.retryNow()
     }

(requires retryNow() in TuiManualIOPump.swift to return Bool)

In `@cmux-tui/crates/cmux-tui/src/main.rs`:
- Around line 635-647: Register “--cols” and “--rows” in STARTUP_VALUE_OPTIONS
so startup_option_value_end recognizes their following numeric arguments as
option values; preserve the existing missing-value validation and extend the
relevant scanner coverage to both options.
- Around line 1604-1614: Update exit_pipe_io to call
client_log::exit(reason.exit_code()) after writing and flushing the final
machine-readable stderr message, replacing the direct process exit while
preserving the existing exit code and message format.

In `@cmux-tui/crates/cmux-tui/src/pipe_io.rs`:
- Around line 37-40: Bound the pipe I/O queue by retained payload bytes as well
as event count: update the queue configuration and the enqueue logic in
RemoteSession::pipe_io_forward, using EVENT_QUEUE_CAPACITY and a documented byte
budget so large decoded Vec<u8> events cannot accumulate unbounded memory when
the embedder stalls.

In `@cmux-tui/crates/cmux-tui/src/session/remote.rs`:
- Line 2149: Update the pipe-io attach path around pipe_io::run and the remote
event handling so it does not create a RemoteSurface or invoke term.vt_write for
forwarded raw output. Add a byte-tap attach path that forwards bytes while
preserving existing attach, resize, input, and lifecycle handling, and ensure
vt-state and resized mirror rebuilding are skipped in pipe-io mode.
- Around line 2926-2931: Update disconnect_transport_with_reason and the pipe-io
relay lifecycle to provide explicit cancellation when transport loss occurs:
ensure the receiver is awakened even if TransportLost cannot be queued, and make
pump_events_to_stdout return PipeIoExitReason::DaemonLost. Coordinate
cancellation with spawn_stdin_pump’s retained sender so dropping pipe_io_tap
alone is not relied upon.

In `@cmux-tui/crates/cmux-tui/tests/cli.rs`:
- Around line 4132-4142: Update the process setup and wait_for_exit flow to
retain the JoinHandles returned by both drain_into threads, then join them after
the child exits before reading the captured output. Remove the fixed 100 ms
sleep, while preserving the existing requirement to parse the final JSON exit
line from stderr.

In `@cmux-tui/spec/cli.md`:
- Around line 28-41: Update the pipe-IO stdin protocol documentation to state
that any malformed input line—including invalid JSON, bad base64, or non-numeric
resize fields—is treated the same as the embedder closing stdin: the session
ends with exit code 0 and must not be respawned.

In `@Sources/Cloud/CloudTuiManualIO.swift`:
- Around line 33-38: Replace the static-only CloudTuiManualIO namespace and
CloudTuiPipeIOProbe.shared usage with a constructable owner that stores an
injected CloudTuiPipeIOProbe and exposes isEnabled as instance behavior. Update
the surface provider and all callers to receive and use that owner, preserving
the existing setting lookup and probe behavior while allowing each instance to
maintain an independently resettable results cache.
- Around line 73-103: The probeHelp capability detection should no longer infer
--pipe-io support from attach help text. Add and use a dedicated
machine-readable client capability command in CloudTuiPipeIOProbe.probeHelp,
parsing its structured response to determine whether --pipe-io is supported; do
not reuse server capabilities from identify.

In `@Sources/TuiManualIOPump.swift`:
- Around line 521-536: Update handleRelayExit to terminate the existing process
before clearing its process reference, including forced daemon-loss exits;
update spawnRelay to close the previous stderrStream and remove its readability
handler before replacing it, mirroring the existing stdoutReader cleanup.
Preserve the existing relay generation and retry behavior.
- Around line 260-263: Add deinit implementations to TuiManualIOInputChannel,
TuiManualIOPump, TuiManualIOPumpRegistry, TuiManualIOStderrStream, and
TuiManualIOStderrBox to satisfy required_deinit; have TuiManualIOStderrStream’s
deinit call close() so its readabilityHandler is cleared during teardown, and
use empty deinitializers for the other classes unless existing cleanup requires
otherwise.
- Around line 144-156: Add localized translations for all supported locales for
the six tui.overlay.* catalog keys, including the reconnect title and detail
shown by CloudTerminalReconnectOverlayPolicy.Presentation. Preserve the existing
en and ja values, and encode the attempt interpolation as %lld in each
translated detail.
- Around line 597-608: The stdout loop in the Task created by the stdoutTask
assignment can incorrectly restore a terminal .ended or .failed state to .live
from buffered chunks. Restrict the state transition to .connecting and
.reconnecting, and update handleRelayExit to cancel stdoutTask and release or
clear stdoutReader when the generation reaches a terminal state.

In `@Sources/Workspace.swift`:
- Around line 8929-8956: In makeCloudTuiManualIOPanel, assign the
pump.onStateChange callback before invoking pump.start(surface:), so synchronous
setup failures that transition the pump to .reconnecting trigger
postRemoteConnectionPresentationDidChange().

In `@Sources/Workspace`+PanelLifecycle.swift:
- Around line 463-468: Update the pump teardown condition in the panel lifecycle
logic to remove the closePanel requirement, gating stopAndRemove only on
!preservesTerminalForTransfer. Preserve the transfer behavior while ensuring
respawnTerminalSurface also removes the old pump when it replaces a surface.

Route pipe-IO termination through client_log::exit

On non-Unix platforms, exit_pipe_io bypasses the only flush path and can discard queued client-log records. Call client_log::exit(reason.exit_code()) after writing and flushing the exit message.

Add the deinit the enabled SwiftLint rule requires.

SwiftLint reports required_deinit for all five new classes: TuiManualIOInputChannel (Line 260), TuiManualIOPump (Line 311), TuiManualIOPumpRegistry (Line 735), TuiManualIOStderrStream (Line 762), and TuiManualIOStderrBox (Line 822). The rule is enabled for this repository, so the lint gate reports five new warnings.

TuiManualIOStderrStream also has real teardown work: a deinit that calls close() clears the readabilityHandler when the stream is replaced without an explicit close().

Also applies to: 311-311, 735-736, 762-765, 822-824

Prevent buffered stdout from restoring a terminal state. handleRelayExit leaves stdoutTask and stdoutReader active. RemoteTmuxProcessOutputReader buffers up to 512 chunks, so a chunk can reach the MainActor loop after .ended or .failed is set. The loop then changes that state to .live because it only checks generation and stopped. Restrict the .live transition to .connecting and .reconnecting, and clean up the reader/task when the generation reaches a terminal state.

Assign pump.onStateChange before calling pump.start(surface:).

On a synchronous relay setup failure, start(surface:) can reach scheduleRetry(), which changes state to .reconnecting before the callback is assigned. The state change then does not call postRemoteConnectionPresentationDidChange(). Assign the callback first so the overlay refreshes for this path.

Remove the closePanel guard from pump teardown. respawnTerminalSurface passes closePanel: false and uses the default preservesTerminalForTransfer: false. It tears down the old surface and replaces it without registering a replacement manual-IO pump. The old pump remains in TuiManualIOPumpRegistry. Gate teardown only on !preservesTerminalForTransfer.

Reclaim geometry when the pane loses authority.

lastGeometryClaim records only this channel’s claim. It does not change when another attachment claims the terminal. If pane A attaches, pane B claims geometry, and the user types in pane A within five seconds, Line 318 suppresses A’s claim. Line 329 then forwards input while pane B still owns the PTY grid.

Use an authoritative focus or attachment-ownership event to mark pane A as needing a reclaim before its next input. Do not use elapsed time as proof that this pane still owns geometry.

As per coding guidelines, correctness-critical state must use one reliable source of truth and must not use a fixed-delay freshness tradeoff. As per path instructions, preserve a single source of truth for geometry authority.

--cols and --rows are still missing from STARTUP_VALUE_OPTIONS.

Both options consume a value, but STARTUP_VALUE_OPTIONS (Line 1283) does not list them. startup_option_value_end returns None for both, so every scanner built on it treats the numeric value as a separate token. is_cli_invocation then routes cmux --cols 100 attach --terminal T --pipe-io through the public CLI parser, because 100 reads as an unknown top-level word.

644-655: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Buffered stdout can restore a terminal state to .live.

handleRelayExit sets .ended or .failed, but it leaves stdoutTask running and stdoutReader attached. RemoteTmuxProcessOutputReader buffers up to 512 chunks, so a chunk can reach this loop after the terminal state is set. Line 651 then sets .live, because the loop checks only generation and stopped. The overlay disappears and the pane looks connected while no relay exists.

Restrict the .live transition to .connecting and .reconnecting, and cancel stdoutTask plus close stdoutReader when the pump reaches .ended or .failed.

Geometry authority still relies on elapsed time, not an authoritative signal.

lastGeometryClaim records only this channel's own claim. It does not change when another attachment claims the same terminal. If pane A attaches, pane B claims geometry, and the user types in pane A within claimInterval, Line 318 suppresses A's claim. Line 329 then forwards input while pane B owns the PTY grid.

Mark the pane for reclaim from an authoritative focus or attachment-ownership event, and keep the throttle only as a cost bound for repeated claims by the same authoritative owner.

As per coding guidelines, correctness-critical state must use one reliable source of truth and must not use a fixed-delay freshness tradeoff. As per path instructions, .github/review-bot-rules/reliability-single-source-of-truth.md requires geometry authority to come from authoritative structured identifiers and typed lifecycle events.

Use the failable String initializer for the stderr text.

SwiftLint reports optional_data_string_conversion at Line 894. String(decoding:as:) replaces invalid bytes, so a truncated multi-byte tail becomes replacement characters instead of a decode failure. relayExit parses this text as JSON, and a lossy prefix line is not useful for classification.

…nals

The scoped attach client minus the renderer, for an embedder that parses
terminal bytes itself: stdout carries the daemon replay then live output
(full reset before any non-first replay), stdin takes JSON input/resize
lines, stderr ends with one machine-readable exit reason, and exit codes
distinguish terminal-ended (0, do not respawn) from daemon-lost (2,
respawn to resync from a fresh replay). On stream loss the relay probes
the daemon once to tell a closed terminal from a daemon outage. The
daemon-side vt stays the single reply authority (the client mirror has no
on_pty_write), pinned by an e2e test asserting an inner DSR query is
answered exactly once.

Extracted from feat-tui-manual-io (PR #10742) with the resource-boundary
lint fixed (no 'surface' in public help text) and the flag documented in
spec/cli.md.
…ump)

A cloud machine's terminal pane previously ran the full 'cmux-tui attach'
TUI as its process (a renderer inside a local PTY). It now defaults to a
manual-mirror Ghostty surface fed by TuiManualIOPump, which owns one
'attach --terminal <id> --pipe-io' relay against the machine link's local
socket: structured replay instead of raw scrollback, daemon-driven sizing,
and a per-pane reconnect state machine (0.5s..30s backoff, explained
daemon-lost exits retry forever, five unexplained failures park in a
failed overlay with manual Retry). The pane reuses the cloud terminal
reconnect overlay; its Reconnect button skips the remaining backoff.

Only cloud machine terminals are affected: the descriptor threads from
CmuxTuiSurfaceProvider through SurfacePaneFactory and the control-surface
layer into the workspace's terminal creation seams, gated by the new
Beta Features toggle cloud.beta.terminalManualIO.enabled (default on).
A bundled client that predates --pipe-io is detected by a cached --help
probe and falls back to the exec attach pane, so rolling-manifest skew
degrades instead of crash-looping. Local terminals, ssh workspaces, and
remote tmux mirrors are untouched.
Dogfood found resizes laggy with the pane and daemon grids visibly
desynced. Cause: the pump forwarded every applied surface size sample
immediately, and the relay applies each one as a synchronous
resize-surface round trip on the same stdin thread that carries
keystrokes — one divider drag on a cloud link queued dozens of stale
sizes (seconds of serialized catch-up) and stalled input behind them.

The pump now keeps at most one resize in flight and remembers only the
newest pending sample, clocked by the relay's existing per-resize
{"diag":{"resize":…}} stderr line (2 s liveness timeout when a diag
never arrives). stderr switched from a blocking drain to a streaming
line reader that feeds the same exit-classification box, so exit
semantics are unchanged. On a local daemon the ack is sub-ms and
behavior degenerates to send-every-sample; on a slow link the pane
converges on the final size after one round trip instead of replaying
the whole drag. Scheduler is pure and unit-tested.
Dogfood surfaced persistently desynced pane vs PTY grids. Session restore
recreates every workspace that ever viewed a terminal, each restored pane
spawns its own relay, and every relay claims geometry authority at attach
— last claim wins, so a hidden restored duplicate (often frozen at a
mid-layout grid like 36x14) could own the PTY size while the visible pane
rendered at its real grid, and the visible pane's resizes were recorded
but never applied.

The relay gains a third stdin verb, {"claim":{"geometry":true}}, which
re-runs claim_terminal_geometry and reports a {"diag":{"claim":...}}
line (older relays ignore unknown keys). The pump sends it ahead of user
input, throttled to once per 5 s per relay: the pane the user actually
types in owns the PTY size, and stale panes lose authority at the first
keystroke. E2E: a second attach steals authority and shrinks the PTY, the
claim line restores the first relay's grid, and a post-reclaim resize
applies.

…resize

Dogfood still felt slower than the exec path. Two residual causes:

The geometry claim ran as a synchronous daemon round trip on the relay's
stdin thread, and the pump sends it right before the first keystroke
after any 5 s pause — so that keystroke waited a full link round trip
before being forwarded. The claim now runs on its own thread; input
needs no ordering against it (bytes ride the interactive lane, the claim
only gates whose resizes apply), and a resize racing an in-flight claim
still converges because the claim applies the claimant's latest reported
size.

Manual-IO surfaces default to suppressing Ghostty's primary-screen
reflow, so on resize the pane showed stale-wrapped content until the
daemon's repaint arrived one round trip later. Cloud panes now enable
the native behavior: primary-screen scrollback re-wraps locally the
moment the grid changes (what a local or ssh terminal does), while the
alternate screen is untouched and its TUI repaints itself when the
daemon-side resize lands.

Closing as superseded by merged PR #11523. That PR replaces nested cmux-tui manual-IO attach with native Ghostty manual I/O. This branch also retains unresolved relay lifecycle findings, so it should not be revived.
