get(Server, Id)
-spec get(tmux_server:t(), tmux_model:window_id()) ->
             {ok, tmux_model:window()} | {error, map()}.
```

Explicitly read a physical window by stable ID. Returns a fresh record or target_gone. Physical windows do not have a universal session or window index.

## Parameters

- `Server` (`tmux_server:t()`)
- `Id` (`tmux_model:window_id()`)

## In other ports
