…y Copy; Smart folds long output /copy and its alias /cp: - /copy N, /copy -N (latest N), /copy A-B, /copy 1,3-5, /copy latest, /copy ui; outputs join oldest first, overlaps once. A missing number refuses the whole copy; nothing is half-copied. - --status / --no-status override "Include completion status" (Off by default) for one copy: each output is followed by the status NMSh recorded for it (outcome, exit code, time, waits). Stored output is never changed; a silent command copies its status alone only when status is asked for. - Settings → Copy (also /copy settings): Quick Copy or Interactive Picker for a bare /copy, Include completion status, Auto-expand copied output. Persisted and part of settings export/import. - Interactive Picker: newest first with /copy numbers, Space/a to select, / to search, preview of the highlighted output, s to toggle statuses (shown before Enter), Enter copies oldest first. - Feedback is a brief note above the composer after the clipboard accepted the text, never a transcript line; mistakes in a typed /copy still answer in the transcript. Blocks: - A direct [Copy] beside [Actions] where the row has room; it reads "✓ Copied" in place (same width, Actions never moves). Copy output and Copy command + output follow the status setting; Copy command never does. - While a completed block's header is scrolled away, its Copy and Actions ride on the sticky header row, owned by the block's startId; one set of controls on screen at a time. NMSh's viewport only: native terminal scrollback is not something NMSh can decorate. Captures: docs/captures/sticky-*. Folding and copying are independent: no copy path changes what is folded. With "Auto-expand copied output" On, only the blocks whose text was copied unfold, after a successful write. Smart Folding: long output (120+ lines, or as many rows when long lines wrap at 120 columns) now folds whatever the command or exit status. Before, varied diagnostics (adb getprop, ps, env) and any output containing a single "error" word never folded. Up to three important lines from the hidden middle (errors, compiler locations, the first frame of a trace) stay in view, and the summary counts them. A block is never collapsed at completion while you are scrolled back or selecting. Shorter output keeps the existing content heuristics.

Tests
copySelection,copyFolding,stickyControls, rewrittensmartFolding,copySelectionLive(5 real-PTY tests), plus affected existing coverage; final candidate gates are recorded below.Additive stabilization candidate — 2026-10-11
Local candidate:
fd2f0e98d46d909e24c2eac5bf95e21fa3634b22. Published PR head remains790fd740cc607cbf6e834bd01501006fa9183f82. The candidate preserves published ancestry through additive merges; final canonical verification is running and its publication/Actions gate is pending.The macOS input canonical passed at 9465eb5. The latest Ubuntu workflow run exposed a stale Report assertion, missing VM tools, stat-only timestamp and host-installer assumptions, and a timing failure. Corrections and unchanged-threshold rerun evidence are recorded in #356 and the workflow ledger; a fresh full run is required.
Refs #356, #359. Physical terminal QA remains outstanding. The shared frontend is not frozen; no master/release merge is authorized.
