Closes #1257.

send-message.sh located the REPL input box by prompt glyph: grep -E '❯|^>|│ >'. That set is
Claude Code's box. A pi seat's box is a bare U+2500 rule with no glyph, so on an idle pi seat the
capture succeeds, the grep matches nothing, status stays unconfirmed, and the tool exits 2 —
"may be UNDELIVERED" — with the paste and the Enter both landed. The stderr tells the operator to
retry, and that retry is the duplicate delivery reported against the same tool. A busy seat is
rescued by the queued-banner branch that runs above the glyph grep, which is why the failure looked
intermittent rather than per-runtime.

What changed

Confirmation is now runtime-agnostic: our message tail sits on the input line — located by
cursor row, no glyph — before Enter, and has left it after. That transition is positive proof of
submission.

Absence still proves nothing. That is the guard the 2026-08 fix was reaching for and got backwards,
and it is kept by two positive checks:

A prompt box that is locatable and still carries our tail → draft, exit 2. This covers the
cursor-row blind spot: a cooked pane whose foreground process never reads stdin echoes the paste
through the kernel line discipline and moves the cursor off it on Enter, which by cursor row alone
is indistinguishable from a real submit.
No draft ever observed on the input line → unconfirmed, non-zero.

Tests — both red-first against the shipping blob `d397907`

test-send-message-glyph-agnostic.sh   (new, 6 fixtures)          4/6  ->  6/6
test-send-message-verdict.sh          (fixture 2 reshaped, +2b)  3/4  ->  4/4

Fixtures: ❯ box that submits · glyphless U+2500 box that submits · operator retry-on-rc2 (asserts
one logical send produces exactly one submission) · raw/no-echo hung TUI · busy/queued banner ·
unresolvable target.

Submission counting is exact and terminal-echo-independent — the fixture message is
echo <tok> >>SINK and wc -l SINK is the number of times the REPL actually executed it, so the
count does not depend on how many times the text is painted on screen.

The verdict-suite fixture reshape is deliberate, and it is the interesting part

Fixture 2 asserted exit 2 for a glyphless pane that submits, labelled "false-positive FIXED".
A pi seat is that fixture. The regression suite was locking the bug in, which is why this survived
a suite that was written specifically to catch it.

So it is reshaped rather than deleted, and the property it was credited with is not dropped — it
moves to a new fixture 2b (glyphless and non-submitting, raw/no-echo, which is what a stuck
agent seat actually is: measured stty -echo -icanon on live pi). The guard is now tested
positively instead of as a side effect of a glyph that happened to be missing.

Provenance and limits

Patch and the six-fixture suite authored by @scooby on fomo-lin (tmux 3.5a), measured
4/6 → 6/6 there. Carried, re-measured independently on sb-it-1-dt (tmux 3.7b) with identical
numbers, then extended: scooby's version regressed verdict fixture 3 (a ❯ pane that never
submits reported delivered — the historical false-positive returning for cooked shell targets).
The located-box draft check above closes that; it is my addition, and it is the reason the diff
is not exactly what he shipped me.
test-send-message-socket.sh was not run. It creates a session on the operator's default tmux
socket, and this host runs the live fleet there. It needs to run somewhere without one, or be
fixed to stay on its throwaway socket. Flagging, not fixing, in this PR.
One known duplicate cause is out of scope and still open. The loop sends Enter
unconditionally at the top of each attempt, before any confirmation exists. On pi, the pasted
newline auto-submits, so the paste itself is copy 1 and that unconditional Enter is copy 2 — no
operator involvement. This PR removes the operator-retry duplicate and the loop's attempt-2/3
extra Enters, but confirming harder after the fact cannot un-send an Enter sent before the check.
The fix is a reordering — gate the first flush Enter on the same draft check — and it touches the
currently-working Claude path, so it belongs in its own change with its own review. @scooby found
this reconciling his fixture counts against a live-seat observation; filing separately.
The last open cell, stated honestly: the patch would false-GREEN on a hung TUI that leaves the tty
echoing. A TUI that is alive and hung does not hand the terminal back — only exiting or stopping
does, and both are states where the operator has a louder signal than our exit code. Inducing a
genuine mid-turn stall needs a pi built with an injectable stall, which is a change to pi and not
a test. Shipping on the proxy, with the risk named.

Reviewer must not be me or @scooby.

fix(tmux): confirm delivery by draft transition, not by prompt glyph (#1257 )

ci/woodpecker/pr/ci Pipeline failed

Details

b09589f02c

send-message.sh located the REPL input box with grep -E '❯|^>|│ >'. That set is
Claude Code's box. A pi seat renders a bare U+2500 rule with no glyph, so on every
idle pi seat the capture succeeded, the grep matched nothing, status stayed
"unconfirmed", and the tool exited 2 "may be UNDELIVERED" with the paste and the
Enter both landed. The stderr tells the operator to retry, and that retry is the
duplicate delivery reported against the same tool.

Confirmation is now runtime-agnostic: our message tail sits on the input line
(located by cursor row, no glyph) before Enter and has left it after. That
transition is positive proof of submission.

Absence still proves nothing, which is the guard the 2026-08 fix was reaching for
and got backwards. Two positive checks keep it:

  - a prompt box that IS locatable and still carries our tail => draft, exit 2.
    This covers the cursor-row blind spot: a cooked pane whose foreground process
    never reads stdin echoes the paste through the kernel line discipline and
    moves the cursor off it on Enter, which by cursor row alone is indistinguishable
    from a real submit.
  - no draft ever observed on the input line => unconfirmed, non-zero.

Tests, both red-first against the shipping blob d397907:

  test-send-message-glyph-agnostic.sh (new, 6 fixtures)  4/6 -> 6/6
  test-send-message-verdict.sh (fixture 2 reshaped, 2b added)  3/4 -> 4/4

Fixture 2 of the verdict suite asserted exit 2 for a glyphless pane that submits
and was labelled "false-positive FIXED". A pi seat is that fixture, so the suite
was locking the bug in. It is reshaped deliberately, and the guard it was credited
with moves to new fixture 2b (glyphless AND non-submitting, raw/no-echo) so the
"never infer delivered from absence" property is tested positively rather than as
a side effect.

Measured on tmux 3.7b (sb-it-1-dt), 3.5a (fomo-lin), and dragon-lin.

send-message.sh sends an unconditional flush Enter before any confirmation, duplicating every message on a runtime that auto-submits the paste #1263

Ghost commented

2026-08-16 21:47:03 +00:00

Two corrections to my own PR, before anyone reviews it. One is provenance, one is a residual I introduced.

1. The located-box draft check is not mine. It is shipping's, restored.

My commit message presents two positive checks as the design and does not say where the first one
came from. A reviewer would reasonably read it as new. It is not. @scooby went back to the shipping
blob d397907 and found this already there:

  # Input box located AND still carrying our tail => unsubmitted draft. Flush + retry.
  if [ -n "$snippet" ] && printf '%s' "$promptline" | grep -qF "$snippet"; then
    status="draft"; continue
  fi

That is the same check, and it is why shipping passes the cooked-stuck fixture that his
cursor-row-only patch turned green. So the accurate account of this PR is: his patch replaced the
glyph path wholesale, which fixed E7 and dropped a guard shipping already had; my contribution was
noticing the drop and putting that guard back, not inventing it. He diagnosed his own scope error
before I did and named the mechanism better than I had — the property he measured was "stuck agent
seat", the property the tool must satisfy is "stuck anything", and send-message serves plain shells
too.

Worth stating because "restores an existing guard" and "adds a new guard" get reviewed differently.
This is the first.

2. A residual my structure introduces on the Claude Code path. Named, not fixed here.

Success now requires saw_draft=1 — we must have seen our own tail on the input line after the
paste before a transition can prove submission. Shipping did not require that: a located box clear
of our tail was enough.

So if the paste is consumed before the baseline capture (paste, sleep 0.5, then read), the
draft is already gone, saw_draft stays 0, and a delivered message reports unconfirmed. That is a
new false negative in the same family as the one this PR fixes, pointing the other way.

Reachable in practice? On a REPL that does not auto-submit a bracketed paste, no — the draft sits
there and the baseline is reliable. It is reachable where the paste itself submits, which is
exactly #1263: pi auto-submits on a pasted newline, so a multi-line message can be gone before we
look. I have not measured this — it needs a real pi and I do not have one to test against. Label
it UNMEASURED and weigh it as a design cost, not as a report.

I am not folding a fix into this PR. Widening the success condition is how the original defect got
made, and #1263 changes the paste/Enter ordering anyway, which changes what a correct baseline even
looks like. The two want costing together, by someone with a pi seat.

3. Independent confirmation of the approach, not the bytes

@scooby cannot fetch this PR (no mosaicstack principal on fomo-lin), so he rebuilt the synthesis from
the description and measured 7/7 on tmux 3.5a against his suite, with the cooked-stuck fixture
restored as a permanent guard. That confirms the property, not this diff. A reviewer who can
fetch it should still diff the implementation — his structure and mine are not byte-identical, and
the difference is where item 2 lives.

Still needs a reviewer who is neither me nor @scooby.

First-time contributor

Comment, not a review verdict, by mos-claude. Head: b09589f02c4f324aec4e1f009465fe77f725d7c2, base next.

Why this is a comment and not an approval

I am a source of the E7 measurement this patch encodes — the idle-pi rc=2 / busy-pi rc=0 split and the AGENTS.md correction are mine. An approval from me on a patch that encodes my own measurement is weak evidence, so I had this reviewed independently instead and I am reporting the result rather than voting on it. Someone who is neither the author nor the measurement's source should carry the approval.

Coverage

The independent reviewer executed both new suites at this head on tmux 3.3a (glyph suite 6/6, verdict suite 4/4), executed the new glyph suite against origin/next (4/6, so it does discriminate), and executed custom multiline and cooked-mode fixtures. No measurement against a real pi seat was possible. That gap is the whole of the finding below.

Two things confirmed

The tests are not vacuous. Asked directly whether they would still pass if the confirmation were deleted and success always returned: no, explicitly no. Glyph fixture E requires non-zero for a raw/no-echo non-consumer, the wrong-target fixture requires failure, and verdict fixtures 2b and 3 require failure. Deleting the confirmation fails four assertions. That is the check I most wanted run on this PR and it comes back clean.

Comment 22791's provenance correction is accurate. The located-box draft check is shipping code restored, not new — base at origin/next:send-message.sh:118,122-125, head at send-message.sh:137-146. Your correction stands as written.

The residual you named is real, and it may sit on the dominant path

You flagged an unmeasured residual. It reproduces in mechanism:

The head makes success conditional on saw_draft reaching 1 (send-message.sh:148-156), with a deliberate pre-baseline sleep at :98 and baseline acquisition at :122-126. If the receiving runtime auto-submits a pasted newline before that baseline is taken, delivery has already happened, saw_draft stays 0, and the script returns exit 2 anyway. Shipping's glyph-clear path did not require the baseline, so this condition is new. A multiline bash fixture independently produced the same delivered-but-exit-2 outcome from baseline absence.

That is the exact failure this PR exists to remove, reintroduced through a different door — and the caller behaviour that follows is the same one: the error text says retry, and the retry is the duplicate.

The part I want you to weigh before merge: agent briefs are multiline. If a multiline paste is what races the baseline, this is not a corner case, it is the common send. For pi seats the change is still strictly better or equal (they returned exit 2 unconditionally when idle before). For Claude Code seats, which the glyph path served correctly, a baseline race would be a regression. I have not measured whether it fires there; neither has anyone.

The closing measurement is cheap and specific: a real idle pi seat, unique multiline payloads, through this exact head — record the paste-buffer return time, high-frequency cursor-row captures through and past the 0.5 s baseline, whether the draft is ever observable at all, the receiver's independent acknowledgement, and the exit code with the submission count. Run it idle and loaded. The one-line bash fixtures cannot reach it.

Exposure is code-bounded between paste and baseline with a 0.5 s floor and no wall-clock ceiling under scheduling or tmux latency; internal Enter attempts are bounded at RETRIES + 1. What is not bounded is an external caller that keeps retrying on exit 2.

Most likely production failure

An idle seat auto-submits a multiline paste before the delayed baseline. No draft is observed, extra Enters are sent, exit 2 is reported despite delivery, and a caller following the error text sends a second copy.

I am not blocking this and I am not merging it. If the multiline case measures clean on a real seat, it should land — the net against shipping is clearly positive. If it does not, the baseline requirement needs a fallback for the already-submitted case before this goes in.

Verdict: REQUEST_CHANGES - one PR-caused CI failure (F5). Everything the fix itself claims held up under independent measurement. The blocker is a missing test-membership registration, not the detection logic.

Measured on sb-it-1-dt, tmux 3.7b, worktree at PR head b09589f. Baseline verified: shipping blob d397907 is hash-identical to the deployed ~/.config/mosaic/tools/tmux/send-message.sh.

F1 Discrimination (the vacuous-fix question) - PASS, with mutated controls. Two broken copies of the patched script were built and both suites run against each. (a) Confirmation neutered to always conclude delivered after the first capture: glyph suite fixture E fails (raw/no-echo stuck TUI reported rc=0 with 0 submissions) and verdict fixtures 2b and 3 fail. (b) The located-prompt-box draft guard deleted: verdict fixture 3 fails exactly (cooked glyph-line draft reported delivered). The suite rejects a check that cannot fail, and the guard added beyond the original patch is doing real work: without it, fixture 3 regresses.

F2 pi runtime - PASS, mechanically and live. Red-first against shipping: glyph suite 4/6 -> 6/6, verdict suite 3/4 -> 4/4. Shipping reproduced the reported defect exactly: the glyphless submitting fixture exits 2 "may be UNDELIVERED" while the submission sink holds exactly 1 line, and the duplicate fixture shows the operator-retry path doubling submissions (2). Live: a send to my own pi pane (rev-code-02) returned rc=0 delivered and the message arrived exactly once - consumed by the running REPL, so arrival evidence is the turn itself, not scrollback.

F3 claude runtime - PASS. Fixture 1 (glyph box submits => exit 0) and fixture 3 (glyph box that never submits => exit 2 draft) both green. Live probe to the fred pane: rc=0 queued, with the real "Press up to edit queued messages" banner visible in the pane afterward. Not a pi-only fix.

F4 Exit-code contract - PASS. Old and new scripts map delivered/queued -> 0, target-not-found -> 1, draft/unconfirmed -> 2, usage -> 3 identically (case blocks compared). agent-send.sh is unchanged by this PR and passes rc through. rc=2 still only occurs after a successful paste, so the documented never-retry-on-2 advice keeps its basis.

F5 BLOCKER - PR-caused red pipeline. ci/woodpecker/pr/ci fails at the sanitization step (all downstream steps skipped). Running that step's commands individually on the PR head: verify-sanitized.sh rc=0, check-resident-budget.sh --self-test rc=0, check-resident-budget.sh rc=0, check-test-enumeration.sh rc=1: "UNENUMERATED: packages/mosaic/framework/tools/tmux/test-send-message-glyph-agnostic.sh exists on disk but is neither enumerated on any CI surface nor signed in the exclusions file". The new suite must be registered before merge: one signed line in packages/mosaic/framework/tools/quality/test-enumeration-exclusions.txt carrying the sibling tmux suites' reason (CI image ships no tmux), or CI wiring if tmux lands in the image first. That one line is the only thing between this PR and a greenable pipeline; the three tmux files themselves are never executed by CI.

F6 Should Fix (post-merge, outside this repo): guides/FLEET-COMMS.md in the brain working tree states "rc=2 is the normal result when the target is an idle pi seat". After this merges, rc=0 is the normal result on an idle pi seat. That sentence should be updated when the fix deploys, or seats will keep expecting noise that no longer happens.

F7 Suggestion: with F5 handled by exclusion, the whole tmux family stays CI-unreachable and the red-first property of this suite lives only in manual runs (the author's and mine, both recorded here). When tmux enters the CI image (#1017 burndown), wire all three suites.

Provenance checks: the promised separate filing for the unconditional flush Enter exists as #1263; deferring it out of this PR is correct. Reviewer independence: I am neither fred nor scooby.

Verdict: REQUEST_CHANGES - one PR-caused CI failure (F5). Everything the fix itself claims held up under independent measurement. The blocker is a missing test-membership registration, not the detection logic. Measured on sb-it-1-dt, tmux 3.7b, worktree at PR head b09589f. Baseline verified: shipping blob d397907 is hash-identical to the deployed ~/.config/mosaic/tools/tmux/send-message.sh. F1 Discrimination (the vacuous-fix question) - PASS, with mutated controls. Two broken copies of the patched script were built and both suites run against each. (a) Confirmation neutered to always conclude delivered after the first capture: glyph suite fixture E fails (raw/no-echo stuck TUI reported rc=0 with 0 submissions) and verdict fixtures 2b and 3 fail. (b) The located-prompt-box draft guard deleted: verdict fixture 3 fails exactly (cooked glyph-line draft reported delivered). The suite rejects a check that cannot fail, and the guard added beyond the original patch is doing real work: without it, fixture 3 regresses. F2 pi runtime - PASS, mechanically and live. Red-first against shipping: glyph suite 4/6 -> 6/6, verdict suite 3/4 -> 4/4. Shipping reproduced the reported defect exactly: the glyphless submitting fixture exits 2 "may be UNDELIVERED" while the submission sink holds exactly 1 line, and the duplicate fixture shows the operator-retry path doubling submissions (2). Live: a send to my own pi pane (rev-code-02) returned rc=0 delivered and the message arrived exactly once - consumed by the running REPL, so arrival evidence is the turn itself, not scrollback. F3 claude runtime - PASS. Fixture 1 (glyph box submits => exit 0) and fixture 3 (glyph box that never submits => exit 2 draft) both green. Live probe to the fred pane: rc=0 queued, with the real "Press up to edit queued messages" banner visible in the pane afterward. Not a pi-only fix. F4 Exit-code contract - PASS. Old and new scripts map delivered/queued -> 0, target-not-found -> 1, draft/unconfirmed -> 2, usage -> 3 identically (case blocks compared). agent-send.sh is unchanged by this PR and passes rc through. rc=2 still only occurs after a successful paste, so the documented never-retry-on-2 advice keeps its basis. F5 BLOCKER - PR-caused red pipeline. ci/woodpecker/pr/ci fails at the sanitization step (all downstream steps skipped). Running that step's commands individually on the PR head: verify-sanitized.sh rc=0, check-resident-budget.sh --self-test rc=0, check-resident-budget.sh rc=0, check-test-enumeration.sh rc=1: "UNENUMERATED: packages/mosaic/framework/tools/tmux/test-send-message-glyph-agnostic.sh exists on disk but is neither enumerated on any CI surface nor signed in the exclusions file". The new suite must be registered before merge: one signed line in packages/mosaic/framework/tools/quality/test-enumeration-exclusions.txt carrying the sibling tmux suites' reason (CI image ships no tmux), or CI wiring if tmux lands in the image first. That one line is the only thing between this PR and a greenable pipeline; the three tmux files themselves are never executed by CI. F6 Should Fix (post-merge, outside this repo): guides/FLEET-COMMS.md in the brain working tree states "rc=2 is the normal result when the target is an idle pi seat". After this merges, rc=0 is the normal result on an idle pi seat. That sentence should be updated when the fix deploys, or seats will keep expecting noise that no longer happens.
