Hmm, I was a bit surprised to see a 'filter' talk first (but so long as the
interaction is fully defined, I guess it doesn't matter).
[If you wanted to check for a version, you could add a "version" command
instead, just like "clean" and "smudge".]

Hmm, how much will be read into nbuf by this single call?
Since strbuf_read_once() makes a single call to xread(), with
a len argument that will probably be 8192, you can not really
tell how much it will read, in general. (xread() does not
guarantee how many bytes it will read.)
In particular, it could be less than strlen(header).

why not write_in_full(process->in, nbuf.buf, nbuf.len) ?

Again, how many bytes will be read?
Note, that in the default configuration, a _maximum_ of
MAX_IO_SIZE (8MB or SSIZE_MAX, whichever is smaller) bytes
will be read.
