Gate: tmux Shift+Enter Fix — Correctness Review

Verdict

• [decision] APPROVED — REVIEW_SCORE: 0

Findings

• [observation] No CRITICAL or WARNING issues found.
• [observation] bind-key -n S-Enter send-keys "\n" is semantically correct for the stated intent.
• [observation] Prerequisite extended-keys on is present and positioned before the binding.
• [observation] Terminal features line (xterm-kitty:extkeys) enables the terminal to report extended key sequences.
• [observation] No conflicting bindings exist in the config.
• [observation] Config ordering is correct — prerequisites before the binding.

Evidence Checked

• [observation] Line 8: set -s extended-keys on — enables tmux to recognize modified keys like S-Enter.
• [observation] Line 9: set -as terminal-features 'xterm-kitty:extkeys' — tells tmux the terminal supports extended keys.
• [observation] Line 10: bind-key -n S-Enter send-keys "\n" — root-table binding, sends literal newline. Correct.
• [observation] No other Enter-related or S-Enter bindings exist that could conflict.
• [observation] -n flag correctly targets root table (no prefix key needed).
