description	Drive wisp-deck's bash account-switch/draft helpers against a REAL claude pane on an isolated tmux server, instead of the mocked go tests — use when verifying changes to lib/account-switch.sh, draft stash/replay, or anything that reads claude's live pane frames.

Verifying against a live claude pane

The go tests mock tmux and claude; real claude's frames differ in ways the mocks can't catch (placeholder text, U+00A0 padding, streaming echoes). To observe the real surface:

# Isolated tmux server — NEVER the user's live server
printf '#!/bin/bash\nexec tmux -L wispverify "$@"\n' > /tmp/tmuxw && chmod +x /tmp/tmuxw
W=/tmp/tmuxw
"$W" new-session -d -s verify -x 100 -y 30 -c /Users/jackuait/Packages/wisp-deck
"$W" send-keys -t verify "$HOME/.local/bin/claude" Enter   # real binary, alias adds flags
# poll capture-pane for a line starting with ❯ → ready (takes a few seconds)

# Call the bash functions exactly as the ledger does, passing the wrapper as tmux_cmd:
bash -c 'source lib/statusline.sh; source lib/claude-accounts.sh
  source lib/tmux-session.sh; source lib/account-switch.sh
  stash_ai_draft /tmp/tmuxw verify "$HOME/.claude/history.jsonl" "$PWD"'

# Baseline against the pre-change lib: git show HEAD~1:lib/account-switch.sh > old.sh; source old.sh
# Cleanup: "$W" kill-server

Gotchas learned from real frames (2026-07, claude 2.1.x):

Empty idle input renders as a bare ❯ (sometimes + space/U+00A0) as the LAST ❯-prefixed row; sent messages echo in the transcript as ❯ <text> rows ABOVE it — never key off "any ❯ line".
Fresh session may briefly show a placeholder (❯ Try "fix lint errors") in the first frame only; it's gone within a second.
While streaming, the empty input box does NOT render a bare ❯ row — the last ❯ row is the just-sent message's echo, so empty-input detection can't fire mid-stream (falls back to Esc-Esc, which interrupts the stream and stashes the in-flight message as the draft — intended).
Typing a draft: send-keys -t <pane> -l "text"; clear input with C-u.
Launch claude with cwd = this repo (already trusted); an untrusted scratch dir stalls on the trust dialog.
