Copy and cut return to Normal at each selection start; Visual cancellation keeps each active endpoint and removes highlighting. Normal Esc collapses to the primary. Characterwise `p`/`P` paste after/before each current grapheme, including multiline text. Linewise clipboard fragments paste complete rows below/above each target row, including at end of file. Internal fragments retain their shape; system clipboard shape is retained only while its bytes match the editor's last publication, and unrelated external clipboard text is characterwise. Characterwise paste lands on its last inserted grapheme, or the new row's start when its fragment ends in a newline; linewise paste lands at the first nonblank of the first inserted row. Every multi-target edit is planned against the original buffer and committed as one undo action, not one per target. Copy, movement, and cancellation do not add history or clear redo. Undo/redo restore text, the full caret set, and primary identity in Normal mode, not Visual highlighting or the clipboard.
In Visual and Visual Line, both `p` and `P` replace each complete selected range rather than inserting beside its caret. Clipboard fragments are inserted literally, including their newlines: a characterwise fragment replacing a whole-line selection does not gain a newline, and a linewise fragment replacing characters keeps its newline. The edit returns to Normal, is one undo group across all selections, and supports dot repeat with the captured clipboard and selection intent. Neither clipboard is overwritten by the replaced text. Failed clipboard reads, invalid text, empty clipboard, or mismatched fragment counts leave the selection and document intact.
Visual `c` removes all selected text into the configured clipboard and enters Insert at each selection start. In the default System policy, clipboard publication must succeed before any deletion; failures leave text and selections intact. Deletion and replacement typing form one undo action when Insert mode is exited, including through explicit command execution. Esc without typing commits the deletion alone. An identical replacement creates no history entry and preserves redo. Changing only characterwise empty final-row selections enters Insert without overwriting either clipboard; linewise empty final rows are genuine rows and publish a newline.
Visual `r<char>` replaces every selected grapheme with the literal character, preserving newline separators and the clipboard. It returns to Normal at each selection start as one undo action and supports `.` repeat. Esc while waiting for the character cancels the replacement without clearing selections. Identical replacements and newline-only selections do not add history or discard redo.

## Clipboard policy
`config.clipboard_mode = "system"` is the default: ordinary Visual `y`/`d`/`x`/`c` and Normal `p`/`P` use the OS clipboard. External clipboard changes are read on each paste. Set `"separate"` to keep ordinary operations on vamp's internal fragment register instead. Both registers remain independent across buffers; changing the policy does not overwrite either.
