tmux-ide 2.9.11

2.9.11 pairs with the separately distributed native macOS alpha 0.1.7, build 2026102201. This release improves the native terminal delivery path and fixes typing immediately after switching panes.

Pane switching and terminal sizing

When you select another pane in the same window and immediately type, the native app briefly holds the input until that exact pane is confirmed ready. Text, paste, and keys retain their order. The hold is bounded and tied to the pane's lifetime: a changed target, lost connection, or expired hold discards unsent input instead of sending it elsewhere. Rejected input is not retried. If the app reports an interruption, follow its recovery message, then retype the command.

Transient loading and error messages now overlay the terminal instead of shrinking its grid. Pane-divider and whole-window resize gestures stage sizing changes until geometry settles. History page navigation uses the selected pane's content height rather than the height of the entire composed window.

Frame delivery

Compatible native components negotiate compact frames and binary transport. Incremental updates carry changed rows; a missing or incompatible baseline requests a complete frame before input can resume. Frame and image ingestion remain bounded, and older peers retain the existing snapshot path.

The live helper now runs within the browser process on the supported path, removing an intermediate process and serialization step. Immutable terminal rows are reused for validation and history byte accounting, avoiding repeated work on unchanged content. These changes retain canonical terminal verification and history rather than removing those checks to reduce work.

This release does not claim a measured speedup or parity with other native terminals. A direct Rust connection to the daemon and zero-copy local image delivery remain deferred; the native app still uses the bridge.

Discovery and terminal UI recovery

Newly created panes can be admitted after verified discovery catches up with their creation. In the terminal UI, an agent pane selection can survive a bounded rebind when its identity remains valid. An uncertain selection command is not sent again, and replacement panes or changed control ownership still fail closed.

Updating

Update the CLI and its running daemon to 2.9.11. Install native alpha 0.1.7 separately when it is available from the native release page. The CLI and native app are separate installations: publishing or installing the CLI does not publish, install, or update the native app. Both updates are needed for the matching native behavior described here.

Existing tmux sessions and the programs running in their panes are preserved.
