+## Background
+
+`tui --multi` currently uses `o` to open/attach the selected Pod entry. Enter is used to send the composer contents to the selected idle live Pod.
+
+When the composer is empty, pressing Enter has no message to send. Treat that input as the same action as `o`: open the selected Pod entry in the single-Pod conversation screen.
+
+This should make the multi-Pod dashboard feel more picker-like while preserving direct-send behavior when text is present.
+
+## Requirements
+
+- In `tui --multi`, pressing Enter with an empty composer opens the selected Pod entry, equivalent to pressing `o`.
+- Pressing Enter with non-empty composer keeps the current behavior: send the composer contents to the selected eligible idle live Pod.
+- Whitespace-only composer should be treated consistently with existing send behavior.
+  - If current send trims/rejects whitespace-only input as empty, Enter should open.
+  - If current send treats whitespace as input, preserve that existing behavior.
+- Opening must use the existing open path.
+  - Do not duplicate attach/open logic.
+  - Existing return-to-multi behavior after detaching from the opened Pod must continue to work.
+- Non-openable selected rows should behave like `o` currently behaves.
+  - Show the same diagnostic/notice and remain in multi view.
+- Do not change `o` key behavior.
+- Do not change direct-send delivery semantics.
+
+## Acceptance criteria
+
+- `tui --multi`: empty composer + Enter returns the same outcome/action as `o` for an openable selected Pod.
+- `tui --multi`: non-empty composer + Enter still direct-sends to the selected eligible idle live Pod.
+- Empty Enter on a non-openable row shows the same diagnostic as `o`.
+- Existing `o` behavior and return-to-multi behavior remain unchanged.
+- Focused tests cover empty Enter open, non-empty Enter send, and non-openable empty Enter diagnostic.
+- `cargo fmt --check`
+- `cargo test -p tui multi --no-default-features` or equivalent focused tests.
+- `cargo check -p tui`
+- `git diff --check`
+
+## Out of scope
+
+- Changing direct-send eligibility.
+- Adding a new keybinding.
+- Changing single-Pod attach behavior.
+- Changing multi-Pod row layout.
