Catalog every API access and content shape that flips a UITextView or NSTextView from TextKit 2 (NSTextLayoutManager) to TextKit 1 (NSLayoutManager) compatibility mode. Covers explicit layoutManager access, glyph APIs, multi-container layout, NSTextTable / NSTextTableBlock content, the macOS field-editor cascade, framework-internal fallbacks, detection notifications, and recovery. Use when textView.textLayoutManager unexpectedly returns nil, when Writing Tools degrades to panel-only, when scrolling collapses on large documents after a build, or when auditing third-party code or your own extensions for fallback risk before shipping. Trigger on 'why did Writing Tools go panel-only', 'TextKit 2 stopped working', 'scrolling collapses', or any unexplained `textLayoutManager == nil`, even when 'fallback' isn't named. Do NOT use for symptom-driven debugging — see txt-textkit-debug. Do NOT use for the TK1 vs TK2 picker decision — see txt-textkit-choice.
Txt Fallback Triggers includes 9 code blocks for direct copy-paste. At roughly 2,047 words the SKILL.md is on the longer end of the catalog distribution.
