Phase 1 review caught a structural gap: executor.exec only drained the
PTY master fd, never forwarded user keystrokes — vim/less/htop/nano
would render and hang on input. PHASE1.md §5 specified bidirectional
multiplex but only the read leg landed. tcgetattr/tcsetattr were also
missing, so even with input forwarding the parent's line discipline
would buffer until newline (breaking single-key UIs).
ffi/libc:
- struct termios opaque buffer + tcgetattr/tcsetattr + cfmakeraw
- M.set_raw(fd) saves termios + applies cfmakeraw; returns saved or
(nil, err) when fd isn't a tty (scripted / piped-stdin runs)
- M.restore_termios(fd, saved)
- struct pollfd + M.poll (POLLIN constant)
executor:
- multiplex(sess): poll(stdin, master); reads master on any revents
(POLLHUP fires when child closes its slave end, not POLLIN — the
revents != 0 check catches both); forwards stdin keystrokes to
master; loop exits when master read returns 0 (EOF / child gone)
- stdin polling is only enabled when stdin_is_tty (set_raw succeeded);
piped-stdin runs (tests / scripted) would otherwise drain queued
aish commands into the child of the *current* cmd, swallowing them
- raw mode is restored before returning so the user lands back at the
aish prompt in canonical mode
renderer + repl:
- exec_output(out, code) split into exec_begin() (top rule, before
spawn) + exec_end(code) (closing rule with exit, after wait). PTY
multiplex streams the body live to stdout in between; the renderer
never re-prints the body.
PHASE1.md §3:
- tcgetattr/tcsetattr changed from "optional" to "required for
single-key UIs to work — done-criteria #2"; poll added to the libc
row description.
Verified:
- non-interactive smoke (echo / false / exit 7 / ls /nonexistent /
printf multi-line) — all exit codes correct, output streamed live,
a\nb\nc\n preserved byte-for-byte
- scripted-stdin run reaches all expected lines (no stdin draining
into a non-interactive child)
- aish prompt + framed exec block + exit-code line all render in
correct order
Live interactive verification (vim / less / htop in a real terminal)
still needs a user-test pass.

Extends Phase 0's chdir/errno/strerror with the syscalls that ffi/pty
needs to drive a forkpty'd child: waitpid (with WIFEXITED / WEXITSTATUS
/ WIFSIGNALED / WTERMSIG decoders), read, write, close, kill.
Status-word macros are reproduced from glibc bits/waitstatus.h using
the LuaJIT `bit` library. M.waitpid returns a structured (kind, value)
rather than the raw status word — callers don't have to know the
encoding:
"exit", N — normal exit, N is exit code
"signal", N — killed by signal N
"other", raw — stopped/continued (Phase 1 doesn't trace those)
nil, err — syscall failure
M.read / M.write / M.close / M.kill mirror their syscall return shape
with errno-string surfacing on failure. Read uses a shared 4 KiB
buffer for the common case; larger reads allocate a fresh buffer.
Smoke covers the chdir regression (still works), all four status
decoders against known status words, pipe round-trip for read/write/
close, EOF -> ("", 0), invalid-fd close -> false, kill(self, 0)
success, kill(bogus, 0) failure.
waitpid is not exercised by the smoke (needs a real child); that
arrives with ffi/pty.

Smallest Phase 0 module per CLAUDE.md §4 implementation order.
M.chdir(path) returns (true) or (false, errmsg) — errmsg via
strerror(__errno_location()[0]). Glibc errno is thread-local
behind __errno_location() rather than a plain global, hence the
indirect access.
Verified against PHASE0.md §7 expectation: a libc.chdir() persists
across subsequent io.popen() calls (popen's child inherits the
parent's wd), which is the property executor.lua relies on for `cd`
interception. Smoke:
libc.chdir("/tmp"); io.popen("pwd"):read("*l") --> /tmp

- README, .gitignore, CLAUDE.md (project conventions)
- docs/PHASE0.md — full Phase 0 manifest (locked substrate)
- 10 root .lua modules + 4 ffi/ bindings, all stubs raising NotImplemented
with module-scoped responsibilities matching the manifest
- config.lua wired to current dirac/hossenfelder endpoints (qwen-coder-7b
snappy/32k + cloud via OpenRouter through hossenfelder)
File names match docs/PHASE0.md §4 exactly. Module bodies fill in across
later phases; the tree shape is locked.
