eesoymilk opened omacom/omarchy-pkgs#1554 to backport an upstream write-request pool fix to Ghostty 1.3.1. The proposal targets crashes when programs read terminal replies slowly, including a palette-query burst associated with herdr startup; a crash in single-instance mode can close every Ghostty window.
The proposal retains Omarchy's epoll setting and addresses the pool rather than changing the event backend. eesoymilk reports no crashes or stalled replies in 40 patched workload runs, compared with seven crashes in 40 runs of the current package. Those are author-reported results, and the backport remains open.
