Chat could lose focus or drop native keystrokes while assistant tool actions opened terminals, files, and diffs (#5). Preserving file and diff opens now use the suspending IDE API with focus disabled, and plugin-owned terminal creation has a bounded focus guard that respects deliberate user interaction.

The Windows workflow builds this checkout with Zoo Code extension 3.84.0 and validates native typing through the real extension, React UI, and JCEF:

• IntelliJ 2025.3 and 2026.2.1 use a deterministic streaming provider, with 12 preserving file opens followed by diffs while typing.
• A maintainer-approved solheim environment runs three fresh live conversations on WebStorm 2026.2.1, requiring both streamed turns, exact drafts, terminal completion markers, file edits, and preserving diff coverage.
• Failures retain screenshots, focus/key traces, provider metadata, IDE logs, and run identity. No failed typing sample is repaired or discarded.

Earlier hosted CI: all four jobs passed on Windows Server 2022, including all three fresh live Solheim conversations. The reporter's Windows 11 configuration remains unverified. Details and local results are in the validation report.

Review follow-up makes relay tests unconditional, refuses upstream redirects, requires at least three first-turn typing samples, avoids label-triggered cancellation, and cancels editor bookkeeping if the project closes during a preserving open. The linked passing run predates the latest workflow, harness, Kotlin, and relay changes. A fresh Windows run on the final code is required.

Related: #5. Hosted Windows Server evidence supports the fix. Close #5 only after the reporter or a Windows 11 run confirms it.
