Review found the shared observation defeated the very fence it fed:
it carries the original PID-to-start-time pairing forward, so a
recycled PID still matches it and takes a signal meant for the process
that exited. Capturing it outside the per-member try also let one
failed read abort a whole teardown round, breaking the synchronous
host-exit contract, and an empty round paid a read for no members.
signalProcess now reads ProcessInspector.isAlive immediately before
delivering, from the narrowest per-identity source each platform
offers; signalMembers and waitForMembers return before capturing when
a round has no members. snapshot() keeps serving the readiness poll,
whose per-poll table read stays at one.
Windows enumerates Toolhelp32 lazily on the first tree question, so a
snapshot asked only for liveness — the 25 ms teardown poll — performs
no table walk at all.
MacProcessInspector answered the descendant tree and every member's
liveness with its own `/bin/ps` fork, so one readiness poll cost N+1
full table reads for N tracked descendants. With execFileSync on that
path and a 50 ms poll interval, any command spawning two or more
children saturated the host event loop until it exited.
ProcessInspector.snapshot() now returns one ProcessSnapshot that
answers tree, session, and alive from a single observation, and
signalProcess takes the caller's observation so its PID-reuse fence
does not re-read the table per member.
- permission-presets: register the permissions unit synchronously before the
existing-session sweep, so a remount reads folded knob state instead of
treating every session as fresh; add a regression test for that path
- sandbox-policy/terminal-bash: mount the projection registry in the 5 pwsh
terminal tests, the sdk-minimal bundle, and the e2b fixture composition;
declare the new package dependency in both manifests
- plan-mode: restore .strict() on the plan unit state schema and drop the
deleted foldPlanMode from the bilingual READMEs
- session-title/session-projection: sync bilingual READMEs to the mandatory
projection seam and re-record translation pairing
- docs: turnBoundary reader contract, subagent schema comment, token-meter

Unix PowerShell emits cursor-position requests while PSReadLine starts and
redraws prompts. The subprocess PTY is only a transport, so those requests
went unanswered. Startup could then accept the dsh> literal echoed from its
setup source as a rendered prompt, and later sends were lost or clipped.
Feed raw PTY output into a zero-scrollback @xterm/headless state machine and
write generated replies through the provider-owned terminal handle. Drain
replies before caller input, repeat foreground inspection when terminal
activity races the sample, and retain send ownership until parser and reply
work quiesce. Coalesce raw chunks behind one active parser write so large
Windows output cannot create thousands of queued parse callbacks.
Publish pwsh only from backend stdin_read evidence and start one timeoutMs
deadline before the complete startup retry loop, so inferred-idle follow-ups
cannot reset the bound. Dispose the emulator when the
terminal or cleanup fails. Document the fail-loud ConstrainedLanguage path
and add focused coverage for split queries, reply ordering, foreground
resampling, failure containment, batching, timeout, and disposal.
tool-bash-persistent overwrote the backend's PS1, so terminal-bash prompt
readiness never matched and every send degraded to the 3.5s silence tier
(idleSilenceMs + handoffGraceMs) under production defaults.
The controlled PROMPT_COMMAND now re-asserts PS1 before every prompt, so an
in-shell override never survives to the next prompt. The tool initializes
with stty -echo alone and detects the no-end-marker fallback through the
seam's stdin_read wait reason instead of matching its own prompt text.
Tool calls drop from 7180/3560/3566 ms to 355/88/91 ms (spawn+init+echo,
echo, pwd; darwin, production defaults). The loader composition suite now
pins the fast path by pushing idleSilenceMs beyond the send bound, and a
real-PTY case proves PS1 self-healing.
