+2. Highlight it → right-click → **Ask Claude to Edit Selection** — the
+   replacement lands Claude-tinted.
+3. Edit inside the tinted span — it splits character-precisely.
+4. Save, then peek at `sandbox/.threads/playground.md.json` — the git-native
+   attribution record. Reopen the file: spans re-resolve.
+5. Highlight text → right-click → **Add Coauthoring Thread on Selection** for
