alternateScreen

A pager, editor, or other full-screen program owned the pane, so matching was suppressed for as long as it did.

tmux fills that grid without adding to history, so what a capture returns is the program's paint rather than anything the pane printed — matching it reports text that was never written. Read the screen with Server/capture(_:includingHistory:) instead of retrying: a different pattern does not change what the wait is allowed to see.
