* sl0ptty: input decoder + per-pane re-encodesl0p2026-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The half libghostty-vt does not do: decode what the outer terminal sends us into semantic events, then re-encode each event for the target pane against that pane's own negotiated modes. Decoder (src/input.c): legacy keys and modifiers, SS3, tilde keys, the kitty keyboard protocol (CSI u, shifted/base layout sub-params, press/repeat/release, associated text), SGR mouse incl. drag and wheel, bracketed paste, focus events, alt-prefix, UTF-8, and partial sequences retained across reads. Re-encoding (pane_send_key/mouse/paste) drives lib-vt's key and mouse encoders via setopt_from_terminal, so a pane gets exactly what it negotiated. The mouse encoder wants surface pixels; we declare a 1x1 pixel cell so cell coordinates are exact rather than approximated. The prefix key is handled on decoded events, not bytes, so it cannot be confused by a byte that merely looks like C-a inside a UTF-8 or escape sequence. Tests: 40 table-driven decoder cases (tests/input_test.c) + a live check that drives the same client into a legacy pane and a kitty/mouse pane and asserts each receives its own encoding (tests/live_input.py). 59 checks, all green.
* sl0ptty: M0 — libghostty-vt vendored, one pane, compositor, diff renderersl0p2026-08-13
Design contract in DESIGN.md. libghostty-vt vendored fresh from ghostty main@bedb6f2 (zig 0.16), built to a 14MB static lib. M0: pty spawn (no libutil), a lib-vt terminal per pane, a screen cell buffer, a diff emitter that repaints only what changed, raw mode, SIGWINCH, and a ~120Hz frame cap that coalesces pty reads. Also the seed of the headless harness: --headless dumps the composited screen without a tty, so composition is testable in milliseconds. tests/live_m0.py covers what headless cannot: raw mode, the diff emitter, resize propagation, and the quit path. 6/6 green.
