* perf(renderer): take the English catalog, xterm WebGL addon and emoji data off the boot graph The renderer's boot graph — the entry chunk plus its 331 modulepreload links, all fetched and evaluated before first paint — carried three payloads nothing needs at that moment. `en.json` (644 KB) was an eager i18next resource, but every renderer string goes through `translate(key, fallback)` and `en` resolves that inline default, so most of the catalog was dead weight. The renderer now bundles a generated `en-runtime-required.json` holding only the 2,583 of 13,828 entries a default cannot reproduce: plural-suffixed keys, keys whose catalog value differs from a call site's default, and keys no call site references with a literal default. `en.json` stays the translator source and the input to the four lazy catalogs. `@xterm/addon-webgl` (243.6 KB) and `emojibase-data` (170 KB) are now primed right after the React root renders instead of statically imported. The load stays eager and `attachWebgl` stays synchronous — it reads the resolved constructor — so no terminal ever falls back to the DOM renderer for a frame. `isPluginPanelTabKey`/`isQualifiedPluginKey` move to schema-free sibling modules, re-exported from `plugin-manifest.ts`. This evicts the plugin manifest schema graph from the boot chunk but measures ~0 KB, because six other shared modules still put zod on the boot path. Boot graph: 332 chunks / 5107.2 KB -> 336 chunks / 4161.5 KB (-945.7 KB, -18.5%). A new ratchet parses the built index.html and fails if `en.json`, `@xterm/addon-webgl` or `emojibase-data` is preloaded again; it runs at the end of every `build:electron-vite`. * chore(i18n): pin the generated English subset to LF and mark it generated * fix(i18n): make the runtime-catalog gate merge-robust and prime emoji data in tests CI builds the merge of a PR with main, so a byte-for-byte comparison against a committed generated file fails the moment any unrelated PR adds a translate() call — which is what happened here. The check now asserts the property that actually matters instead of byte equality: every runtime-required entry is shipped, and nothing shipped disagrees with en.json. Entries that stopped being required are dead weight, never a wrong string, so they are reported and tolerated. Failures now name the offending keys rather than saying "stale". The generator itself was already deterministic (plain code-unit sort, no locale collation, order-independent set construction); a test now pins that a reversed call-site walk produces byte-identical output. Test fixes for the catalog prune and the deferred emoji load: - browser-search / NativeChatSupportedAgents asserted key presence on the renderer's runtime resource. The durable contract is en.json — the renderer deliberately no longer bundles entries a call site default reproduces — so they assert against the translator catalog. - Four emoji tests typed a shortcode in the same tick as mount, before the catalog the hook primes on mount resolves. Not reachable by a human; the tests now await the prime. * revert(renderer): keep the emoji shortcode catalog statically imported Deferring emojibase-data introduced a window that did not exist before: until the dynamic import settled, getPrimedEmojiShortcodeEntries returned [], so exactShortcodeIndex built an empty map and replaceCompletedWorkspaceEmojiShortcode returned null — leaving a typed `:wink:` in the field literally, and persisting it as the workspace display name. Pre-change the shared catalog was statically imported, so the first call at any tick returned full data. The window is reachable by anything that dispatches input in the same task as the field's mount effect — Playwright/CDP in the e2e suite and agent automation both do, and the WorktreeMetaDialog test failure was exactly that, producing 'Feature 😉' instead of 'Feature 😉'. Nothing that resolves a shortcode can be async without that race, and a wrong persisted name is not an acceptable trade for 166.7 KB, so the deferral is reverted rather than papered over in the tests. The boot-graph ratchet drops its emojibase-data probe and records why. Boot graph: 5108.9 KB -> 4329.9 KB (-779.0 KB, -15.2%), down from -945.7 KB. * fix(terminal): make the deferred WebGL addon load recoverable and refit on late attach Two defects the deferral introduced, neither possible with a static import. A failed load latched the DOM renderer for the whole session. `.then(onOk, onError)` settles fulfilled, so the memoized promise was cached forever with a null constructor: attachWebgl's re-prime got the cached promise back, and resetTerminalWebglSuggestion — the documented "GPU setting changed, retry" path — could not clear it either. The rejection path now clears the memo, latches the queued panes the way a failed construction does so they retry at a recovery boundary rather than every frame, and caps attempts so a genuinely missing chunk is not re-fetched forever. The recovery boundary re-arms it. The queued-attach drain skipped the refit. Every other late-attach path pairs attach with a refit because the grid was measured under DOM cell metrics and WebGL floors the device cell width. Post-deferral, openTerminal's attachWebgl queued and returned, the initial fit rAF then measured DOM metrics and sized the PTY from them, and the addon attached with no refit — a persistently narrow PTY and an unpainted right gutter, not a one-frame flicker. Both paths now go through one attachWebglAndRefit pairing so they cannot diverge again. Regression tests cover both, and each was verified to fail without its fix. The addon-load state machine moves to terminal-webgl-addon-loader.ts and the viewport presentation helpers to pane-viewport-present.ts, keeping pane-webgl-renderer.ts under the 300-line budget without a suppression.
