- **Replay geometry belongs to the parser queue.** Native measurements and web fits must leave the captured dimensions intact through every chunk's commit. Apply the latest measured size after replay, before live bytes; clear, replacement and disposal must release that geometry ownership. A layout effect must not resize the renderer directly during replay.
- **Coalesced output carries the LAST chunk's revision.** Snapshot replay dedup (`replayTerminalOutputAfterSnapshot`) skips buffered output with `revision <= replayRevision`; a merged batch with a lower revision would be wrongly skipped (lost output).
- **The input-mode tracker runs once per process boundary, not per hop.** The worker commits its authoritative tracker with xterm parsing before publishing the corresponding revision; the daemon caches current modes from ordered worker events and adoption. A replay response carries capture-time modes for its viewer; it must not overwrite the shared cache after newer live output. Apply that viewer's preamble before its buffered live bytes. Do not reintroduce a per-chunk `feed()` on the daemon main loop.
- **Snapshot catch-up is backpressure-gated.** A stream falls back to a full snapshot only when `outputBytesSinceSnapshot > MAX_TERMINAL_OUTPUT_FRAME_BYTES` (256KB) **and** the client transport reports `bufferedAmount > MAX_CLIENT_BUFFERED_BYTES` (4MB). A client that keeps draining streams continuously, no matter how much output is produced. Before this gate existed, every 256KB of build output dropped a frame and forced a full JSON cell-grid snapshot (~200k objects across IPC) — the historical source of spiky lag and GC hitches.
- **Snapshot catch-up is backpressure-gated.** After more than 256 KiB of output, a stream catches up only when its transport reports more than 4 MiB queued, or exposes no backpressure reading. A draining client streams continuously. Pressure recovery sends at most 500 recent history rows plus the screen, preserving smaller explicit demands including zero; even a live-only subscription needs this resynchronization. It does not change the subscription's configured demand: later attach/reconnect restores still request the full configured history. The recent window avoids repeatedly serializing all retained history for a slow viewer.
- **Plugin daemon sessions report IPC queue bytes.** Their virtual socket increments `bufferedAmount` before `process.send` and decrements it only in the send callback. Text and binary frames share that ordered queue, so the normal snapshot catch-up and physical high-water gates remain valid for server-side plugin SDK traffic.
- **Client output writes are not serialized per frame.** The emulator runtime drains contiguous plain writes straight into xterm (which buffers internally). Only barrier ops (`clear`, `snapshot`, `suppressInput` writes) wait — behind a zero-length sentinel write — so resets can't interleave with in-flight output.
- **Find preserves the inspected xterm viewport, including at the live bottom.** Keep its output anchor inside the existing batched write path. Serializing output to preserve a search result would add terminal latency.
