Daily-driver manual verification

Use this checklist to record the author's experience in a real terminal. PTY tests establish reproducible input and screen behavior, but do not establish Japanese IME usability or comfort during daily editing. No author-run results have been supplied for this checklist.

Preparation

Use a disposable directory, copies of files, and a disposable Git repository. Do not run staging commands in a shared checkout or open files containing credentials. Keep session snapshots private: they can contain buffer text.

Build and start the executable using Getting Started. Record the source revision, whether it has local edits, OS, terminal application, terminal dimensions, and IME used. Redact private paths, hostnames, and file contents from evidence. Record the LSP server and version for LSP checks.

For each row, replace Not run with Pass or Fail and a brief observation. A failure needs reproduction steps and the observed behavior. A missing external tool leaves the affected row Not run; it is not a pass. These are manual results, separate from automated tests.

Editing checks

Check	Actions and expected observation	Author result
Common Lisp	Open a .lisp file with C-x C-f. Edit a nested form, move by sexp, and try M-x forward-slurp-sexp, forward-barf-sexp, wrap-round, splice-sexp, and raise-sexp on suitable forms. Check balanced structure and undo each edit. Save with C-x C-s and reopen to check the saved text. SWANK evaluation is deferred, not a passing criterion.	Not run
Nix	Open a .nix file. Check the selected mode, indentation, movement, undo, saving, and reopening. Keep long lines visible by moving point beyond the right edge; the view should follow point without changing file text.	Not run
TypeScript	Open a .ts file and check mode selection, indentation, movement, undo, saving, and reopening. This does not establish TypeScript LSP support without a separately configured server.	Not run
Markdown	Open a .md file containing a paragraph wider than the window. Check wrapping, next/previous visual-row movement, and saving without inserted wrap newlines. Run M-x toggle-truncate-lines and check the same text in truncated mode.	Not run
Japanese input	Use the real IME to enter and convert Japanese beside ASCII. Move across full-width characters, delete, undo, save, and reopen. Resize the window and check that text and cursor remain aligned. Record any key interception or composition problem.	Not run
Search	Use C-s on text with multiple occurrences. Accept with RET, then search again and cancel with C-g. Check the accepted and restored point positions.	Not run

Tooling and restoration checks

Check	Actions and expected observation	Author result
LSP	In a disposable Nix project, provide the intended server command at the lsp-start prompt or in a project-local .loom-lsp file. For a discovered command, press RET, review the configuration path, directory, and command, then type exactly yes to start it. With a command that wraps beyond the visible review area, use PageDown/C-v and PageUp/M-v to scroll to its end and back to the start without changing the trust answer. Check that C-g or any other answer cancels without stopping an existing session and restores the original buffer and viewport. With nixd, enter let completionValue = 1; in comp, place point after comp, and check that lsp-completion-at-point offers completionValue. Use a local binding and reference to check lsp-find-definition and lsp-pop-definition, including the return location. Check lsp-diagnostics with invalid syntax, then lsp-stop. Record the actual candidates, locations, and diagnostics.	Not run
Terminal	Run M-x terminal, enter printf 'terminal-check\n', and check the child output. Resize the editor, then run M-x terminal-stop and confirm editor input still works. Repeat opening and stopping to check cleanup.	Not run
Git	In the disposable repository, change one file. Run C-x g, M-x git-diff, git-stage-file, git-diff-staged, and git-unstage-file. Check the reported exit status and compare the index and file contents with an external Git inspection. Do not commit or push as part of this check.	Not run
Session	Open two disposable files, split a window, move point, and create a bookmark. Run M-x save-session with a private snapshot path. Change the buffers and layout, then M-x load-session using that path. Check restored text, point, layout, and bookmark. Display-mode persistence is deferred; do not expect a changed truncate/wrap setting to survive restoration.	Not run
Exit and restart	Save intended changes, exit with C-x C-c, and restart. Check that the terminal's echo, cursor, and normal screen are restored and that saved file bytes match the edits.	Not run

Acceptance boundary

All rows need author observations before the manual criterion FR-V08 in the verification plan can be considered complete. Failures and unrun rows remain release-verification gaps. See the daily-driver requirements for deferred features; this checklist does not convert them into implemented functionality.
