What the mounted story proves
  1. 01
    PathInput
    Representative 120×40 terminal state.
  2. 02
    Passive paint
    No keyboard or pointer action is claimed by this representative story.
  3. 03
    Evidence stays explicit
    3 covered · 8 partial · 5 missing axes.

Purpose. Path entry for installers, connection setup, and FilePicker shells.
TermRock owns typing, history, completion/browse signals, and pure path
helpers. Hosts own all filesystem I/O and sandbox policy.


Ownership


ConcernOwner
Field text, history, browse/complete outcomesPathInput
std::fs / remote / sandbox lookupsHost
Existence, type, destructive riskHost projection


Destructive targets


Host sets PathRisk::Destructive for overwrites or sensitive system paths.
PathInput paints danger chrome and optional “destructive target” caption.


Pure helpers


normalize_separators, is_absolute_path, join_path, expand_tilde,
expand_env_vars, completion_prefix — no process env or disk access.
Ownership boundary
TermRock owns reusable terminal rendering and interaction state. The host owns domain data, policy, persistence, authorization, and side effects.
Evidence status
3 covered, 8 partial, and 5 missing contract axes. Missing evidence is not a behavior claim.
Password Input
A secure secret-entry field that masks paint, redacts Debug/semantic output, and never embeds secrets in outcomes.
Picker
A filterable stable-ID list composition with caller-owned matching and ordering.
