The editing surface: the same hosted TextKit-1 text view gains an
editable branch with a per-keystroke line-scanner highlighter — chosen
over a parser re-parse because a mid-typing buffer is usually invalid
Markdown and 05 wants the delimiters themselves dimmed; apply only sets
attributes, so presentation-never-transforms is structural. Saves ride
a ~700ms injectable debounce through BoardWriter.writeBody —
toggleTaskMarker's idiom widened to the body span, frontmatter bytes
untouched, refusing to write when disk already holds that body, which
enforces all three gates (untouched, reverted, echo) at the layer that
owns the bytes with one isDirty predicate above it. Mode grammar lands
whole: ⌘E toggles with a checkmark, Return in Preview enters, Escape
returns, and every flip flushes first; window close flushes through
the existing retry/save-copy/discard modal, and the dismissal flush
deliberately reaches a tombstoned card. Dirty-buffer-wins: disk always
follows the snapshot, the buffer only when clean, both surfaces render
the buffer. Undo is the editor's own session-scoped NSUndoManager;
endEditSession names the pro-m1 one-commit-per-session boundary.

The card body's resting state: swift-markdown (pinned 0.8.0, smart
typography off — Preview renders the bytes on disk) parsed into a pure
BodyMarkup model with UTF-8 source offsets, rendered on one hosted
TextKit 1 NSTextView — chosen because find-in-text is NSTextFinder,
checkbox clicks reuse AppKit character hit-testing, links are .link
attributes, and NSTextTable's automatic layout is exactly the
columns-sized-to-contents rule. The GFM subset renders per 05; HTML
stays verbatim code-styled text; relative images resolve against the
card folder while remote URLs are never fetched, drawing a quiet chip
instead. Task checkboxes are live: a click flips exactly one byte
through a fresh-read, refuse-uneditable, stamp, atomic-replace write —
the app's only offset-addressed write, so a moved target refuses as
staleTarget and what the user saw decides the direction, netting one
toggle on a double-click. Empty bodies open in Edit per CardBodyMode's
opening rule, applied once; the Edit surface itself stays an honest
read-only stub until its card. FindCommand prefers the card body's
find over board search when a card window is focused.
