sk_repl_idle() (called every ~1s from sk_console_readline()'s idle loop) opens with console_ensure_line_start(), which unconditionally forces a newline whenever the console isn't at a line boundary -- including mid-edit, after characters have been typed and echoed but before Enter. This fired on every elapsed SK_IDLE_BEAT_INTERVAL regardless of whether sk_repl_idle() had anything to print, visually snapping the in-progress input line to a fresh empty line -- indistinguishable from Enter having been pressed. Most noticeable on the space key since it's the most common key hit during a pause. Gate the idle beat on n == 0 (no in-progress edit), mirroring the n > 0 guard the prompt reanchor logic just below already uses. Deferring the xhci/block-sync idle service by at most one more interval while a line is being edited is within its own documented "coarse cadence, cheap early-exit" tolerance. Verified: reproduced via QMP send-key against a live amd64 QEMU boot (multi-character line typed with pauses across several idle intervals stayed intact after the fix, where it previously broke on each interval). Re-verified boot to ok> on all three architectures (amd64/aarch64/riscv64) per repo acceptance policy. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
