Take over a terminal session without forking
SHORT ANSWER
Open the terminal session in Pairlet and tap Continue here. It resumes in place when the terminal is idle; it forks only while the terminal is still writing, which prevents two writers from corrupting one transcript.
Observe first
Terminal-owned sessions appear in the project’s session list. Opening one starts in read-only observation, so Pairlet can stream its output without becoming a second writer.

Tap Continue here
Pairlet resumes the same session in place when it is safe to do so.

Keep working
Prompts, approvals, interrupts, and live output now behave like any other Pairlet-controlled session.
