- input wrap: add <Text wrap="wrap-char"> mode that drives wrap-ansi with
wordWrap:false, and align cursorLayout/offsetFromPosition to that same
boundary (w=cols, trailing-cell overflow). Word-wrap's whitespace
reshuffle was causing the cursor to jump a word left/right on each
keystroke near the right edge — blitz row 9
- shift-tab: toggle per-session yolo without submitting a turn (mirrors
Claude Code's in-place dangerously-approve); slash /yolo still works
for discoverability — blitz row 5 sub-item 11
- statusline: lift StatusRule out of ComposerPane to a new StatusRulePane
anchored at the bottom of AppLayout, below the input — blitz row 5
sub-item 12
Pull duplicated rules into ui-tui/src/lib/subagentTree so the live overlay,
disk snapshot label, and diff pane all speak one dialect:
- export fmtDuration(seconds) — was a private helper in subagentTree;
agentsOverlay's local secLabel/fmtDur/fmtElapsedLabel now wrap the same
core (with UI-only empty-string policy).
- export topLevelSubagents(items) — matches buildSubagentTree's orphan
semantics (no parent OR parent not in snapshot). Replaces three hand-
rolled copies across createGatewayEventHandler (disk label), agentsOverlay
DiffPane, and prior inline filters.
Also collapse agentsOverlay boilerplate:
- replace IIFE title + inner `delta` helper with straight expressions;
- introduce module-level diffMetricLine for replay-diff rows;
- tighten OverlayScrollbar (single thumbColor expression, vBar/thumbBody).
Adds unit coverage for the new exports (fmtDuration + topLevelSubagents).
No behaviour change; 221 tests pass.
- List rows: pad the status dot with space before (heat-marker gap or
matching 2-space filler) and after (3 spaces to goal) so `●` / `○` /
`✓` / `■` / `✗` don't read glued to the heat bar or the goal text.
- Gantt rows: bump id→bar separator from 1 to 2 spaces; widen the id
gutter from 4 to 5 cols and re-align the ruler lead to match.
Four real issues Copilot flagged:
1. delegate_tool: `_build_child_agent` never passed `toolsets` to the
progress callback, so the event payload's `toolsets` field (wired
through every layer) was always empty and the overlay's toolsets
row never populated. Thread `child_toolsets` through.
2. event handler: the race-protection on subagent.spawn_requested /
subagent.start only preserved `completed`, so a late-arriving queued
event could clobber `failed` / `interrupted` too. Preserve any
terminal status (`completed | failed | interrupted`).
3. SpawnHud: comment claimed concurrency was approximated by "widest
level in the tree" but code used `totals.activeCount` (total across
all parents). `max_concurrent_children` is a per-parent cap, so
activeCount over-warns for multi-orchestrator runs. Switch to
`max(widthByDepth(tree))`; the label now reads `⚡W/cap+extra` where
W is the widest level (drives the ratio) and `+extra` is the rest.
4. spawn_tree.list: comment said "peek header without parsing full list"
but the code json.loads()'d every snapshot. Adds a per-session
`_index.jsonl` sidecar written on save; list() reads only the index
(with a full-scan fallback for pre-index sessions). O(1) per
snapshot now vs O(file-size).
- createGatewayEventHandler: remove dead `return` after a block that
always returns (tool.complete case). The inner block exits via
both branches so the outer statement was never reachable. Was
pre-existing on main; fixed here because it was the only thing
blocking `npm run fix` on this branch.
- agentsOverlay + ops: prettier reformatting.
`npm run fix` / `npm run type-check` / `npm test` all clean.
The Write tool that wrote the cleaned overlay split the `if` keyword
across two lines in 9 places (` i\nf (cond) {`), which silently
passed one typecheck run but actually left the handler as broken
JS — every keystroke threw. Input froze in the /agents overlay
(j/k/arrows/q/etc. all no-ops) while the 500ms now-tick kept
rendering, so the UI looked "frozen but the timeline moves".
Reflows the handler as-intended with no behaviour change.
Adds a live + post-hoc audit surface for recursive delegate_task fan-out.
None of cc/oc/oclaw tackle nested subagent trees inside an Ink overlay;
this ships a view-switched dashboard that handles arbitrary depth + width.
Python
- delegate_tool: every subagent event now carries subagent_id, parent_id,
depth, model, tool_count; subagent.complete also ships input/output/
reasoning tokens, cost, api_calls, files_read/files_written, and a
tail of tool-call outputs
- delegate_tool: new subagent.spawn_requested event + _active_subagents
registry so the overlay can kill a branch by id and pause new spawns
- tui_gateway: new RPCs delegation.status, delegation.pause,
subagent.interrupt, spawn_tree.save/list/load (disk under
\$HERMES_HOME/spawn-trees/<session>/<ts>.json)
TUI
- /agents overlay: full-width list mode (gantt strip + row picker) and
Enter-to-drill full-width scrollable detail mode; inverse+amber
selection, heat-coloured branch markers, wall-clock gantt with tick
ruler, per-branch rollups
- Detail pane: collapsible accordions (Budget, Files, Tool calls, Output,
Progress, Summary); open-state persists across agents + mode switches
via a shared atom
- /replay [N|last|list|load <path>] for in-memory + disk history;
/replay-diff <a> <b> for side-by-side tree comparison
- Status-bar SpawnHud warns as depth/concurrency approaches caps;
overlay auto-follows the just-finished turn onto history[1]
- Theme: bump DARK dim #B8860B → #CC9B1F for readable secondary text
globally; keep LIGHT untouched
Tests: +29 new subagentTree unit tests; 215/215 passing.
Reverts the auto-expand-on-new-error effect added in 93b47d96. The
effect overrode the user's chosen detailsMode and visually interrupted
every turn. Red/yellow chevron tint remains as the passive signal —
click to read, just like Thinking and Tool calls.
Follow-up on #13726 from blitz feedback: Up/Down history cycling should only trigger when the caret is at the start/end boundary (or the input is empty).\n\nPreviously useInputHandlers intercepted arrows whenever inputBuf was empty, which still stole Up/Down from normal multiline editing. textInput now publishes caret position through inputSelectionStore even with no active selection, and useInputHandlers gates history/queue cycling on those boundaries.
Reported during TUI v2 blitz retest: typing a multi-line message with
shift-Enter and then pressing Up to edit an earlier line swapped the
whole buffer for the previous history entry instead of moving the
cursor up a line. Down then restored the draft → the buffer appeared
to "flip" between the draft and a prior prompt.
`useInputHandlers` cycles history on Up/Down, but textInput only
checked `inputBuf.length` — that only counts lines committed with a
trailing backslash, not shift-Enter newlines inside `input` itself.
Fix: detect logical lines inside the input string and move the cursor
one line up/down preserving column offset (clamp to line end when the
destination is shorter, standard editor behavior). Only fall through
to history cycling when the cursor is already on the first line (Up)
or last line (Down).
Adds unit coverage for the new `lineNav` helper.
- Drop the outer no-op capture group from INLINE_RE and restructure the
source as an ordered list of patterns-with-index-comments so each
alternative is individually greppable. Shift group indices in MdInline
down by one accordingly.
- Inline single-use helpers (parseFence, isFenceClose, isMarkdownFence,
trimBareUrl) and intermediate variables (path, lang, raw, prefix, body,
depth, task body, setext match, etc.).
- Hoist block-level regexes used inside MdImpl (FENCE_CLOSE_RE, SETEXT_RE,
BULLET_RE, TASK_RE, NUMBERED_RE, QUOTE_RE) to top-level consts so
they're compiled once instead of per-line.
- Collapse the duplicate compact-vs-normal blank-line branches into one
if/!compact gap call.
- Move Fence and MdProps types to the bottom per house style.
- Shorten splitTableRow → splitRow and use optional chaining in a few
match sites.
No behavior change; 162/162 tests pass. Net -22 LoC.
The inline markdown regex had `~([^~\s][^~]*?)~` for Pandoc-style subscript
(H~2~O, CO~2~). On models that decorate prose with kaomoji like `thing ~!`
and `cool ~?` — Kimi especially — the opener `~!` paired with the next
stray `~` on the line and dim-formatted everything between them with a
leading `_` character, mangling markdown output.
Tighten the pattern to short alphanumeric-only content (`~[A-Za-z0-9]{1,8}~`)
since real subscript never contains punctuation, spaces, or long runs.
Same tightening applied to stripInlineMarkup so width measurement stays
consistent. Classic CLI was unaffected because it renders these literally.
Models frequently emit bare codepoints like U+26A0 (⚠), U+2139 (ℹ),
U+2764 (❤), U+2714 (✔), U+2600 (☀), U+263A (☺) which, per Unicode, have
Emoji_Presentation=No and render as monochrome text-style glyphs in
terminals unless followed by VS16 (U+FE0F). Agent output leaked through
the TUI like `⚠ careful` instead of `⚠️ careful`.
Added `ensureEmojiPresentation` (lib/emoji.ts): scans for the curated
set of text-default codepoints and appends VS16 when the next char is
not already VS16, ZWJ, or a keycap-enclosing mark. Idempotent and
fast-pathed by a Unicode-range regex so ASCII-heavy text is untouched.
Applied once at the top of `Md`'s line parse. Hermes-ink's stringWidth
already accounts for VS16, so cursor/layout stays correct.
The pager overlay backing /history, /toolsets, /help and any paged slash
output only advanced with Enter/Space and closed at the end. Could not
scroll back, scroll line-by-line, or jump to endpoints.
Adds Up/Down (↑↓, j/k), PgUp (b), g/G for top/bottom, keeps existing
Enter/Space/PgDn forward-and-auto-close, and clamps offset so
over-scrolling past the last page is a no-op.
The completion popup (e.g. typing `/model`) grew from 8 rows at
compIdx=0 up to 16 rows at compIdx≥8 — the slice end was `compIdx + 8`
so every arrow-down added another rendered row until the window filled.
Reported during TUI v2 retest: "as i scroll and more options appear,
for some reason more options appear and it expands the height".
Fixed viewport (`COMPLETION_WINDOW = 16`) centered on compIdx, clamped
so it never slides past the array bounds. Renders exactly
`min(WINDOW, completions.length)` rows every frame.
A6 added a fixed-height grid (Array.from({length: VISIBLE})), but the
row <Text> itself had no wrap prop so Ink defaulted to wrap="wrap".
A sufficiently long model or provider name would wrap to a second
visual line and bounce the overall picker height right back — which
is exactly what reappeared during the TUI v2 blitz retest on /model.
Pin every picker row (and the empty-state / padding rows) to
wrap="truncate-end" so each slot is guaranteed one line. Applies
across modelPicker, sessionPicker, and skillsHub.
Selected rows in the model/session/skills pickers and approval/clarify
prompts only changed from dim gray to cornsilk, which reads as low
contrast on lighter themes and LCDs (reported during TUI v2 blitz).
Switch the selected row to `inverse bold` with the brand accent color
across modelPicker, sessionPicker, skillsHub, and prompts so the
highlight is terminal-portable and unambiguous. Unselected rows stay
dim. Also extends the sessionPicker middle meta column (which was
always dim) to inherit the row's selection state.
Warning row, "↑ N more" / "↓ N more" hints, and the items list were all
conditionally rendered, so the picker jumped in size as the selection
moved or providers without a warning slid into view.
Render every slot unconditionally: warning falls back to a blank line,
hints render an empty string when at the edge, and the items grid always
emits VISIBLE rows padded with blanks. Height is now constant across
providers, model counts, and scroll position.
textInput treated the platform action-mod (Cmd on macOS, Ctrl on Linux)
as the sole word-boundary modifier. On Linux that meant:
- Ctrl+A selected all instead of jumping to line start (contra standard
readline and the hotkey doc in README.md which says `Ctrl+A` = Start
of line).
- Alt+B / Alt+F / Alt+Backspace / Alt+Delete were dropped, because
`key.meta` was never consulted — the README already documented
`Meta+B` / `Meta+F` as word nav.
Gate select-all to macOS Cmd+A (`isMac && mod && inp === 'a'`), route
Linux Ctrl+A through `actionHome`, and broaden every word-boundary
predicate (b/f/Backspace/Delete and the modified arrow keys) from `mod`
to `wordMod = mod || k.meta` so Alt chords work on Linux and Mac while
existing Ctrl/Cmd chords keep working.
Medium fixes:
- textInput.tsx: prevent silent data loss when async paste resolves
after user types — fall back to raw text insert at current cursor
instead of dropping the content entirely
- useComposerState.ts: tighten looksLikeDroppedPath to require a
second '/' or '.' for bare absolute paths, avoiding unnecessary
RPC round-trips for pasted text like /api or /help
- useComposerState.ts: add cross-reference comment linking to the
canonical _detect_file_drop() in cli.py
- osc52.ts: add 500ms timeout via Promise.race so terminals that
do not support OSC52 clipboard queries cannot hang paste
Low fixes:
- terminalSetup.ts: export isRemoteShellSession and reuse in
terminalParity.ts and useComposerState.ts (was inlined 3 times)
- useComposerState.ts: extract insertAtCursor helper, replacing 3
copies of the lead/tail spacing logic
- useComposerState.ts: remove redundant gw from handleTextPaste
useCallback dependency array
- terminalSetup.test.ts: add EACCES (read-only keybindings.json)
and unterminated block comment test coverage
Fixes from OutThisLife review:
1. Restore Linux Alt+Enter newline: textInput.tsx now uses
k.shift || (isMac ? isActionMod(k) : k.meta) so Alt+Enter
inserts a newline on Linux (was broken by isMac guard).
2. Fix image.attach response type: useComposerState.ts now uses
ImageAttachResponse (which already has remainder) instead of
InputDetectDropResponse with intersection.
3. Expand looksLikeDroppedPath test coverage with edge cases for
image extensions, file:// URIs, spaces, empty input, and
non-file URLs.
4. Make terminalParity.test.ts hermetic: terminalParityHints() now
accepts optional fileOps/homeDir and passes them through to
shouldPromptForTerminalSetup(), so tests inject mock readFile
instead of hitting the real filesystem.
Fixes from Copilot inline review:
5. Remove unused options.now parameter from configureTerminalKeybindings.
6. Replace naive stripJsonComments (full-line // only) with a proper
JSONC stripper that handles inline // comments, block comments,
trailing commas, and preserves comment-like sequences in strings.
7. Move backupFile() call from immediately after read to right before
write - backups are only created when changes will actually be
written, not on every /terminal-setup invocation.
The agent emits `MEDIA:<path>` to signal file delivery to the gateway,
and `[[audio_as_voice]]` as a voice-delivery hint. The gateway strips
both before sending to Telegram/Discord/Slack, but the TUI was rendering
them raw through markdown — which is also how the intraword underscore
bug originally surfaced (`browser_screenshot_ecc…`).
At the `Md` layer, detect both sentinels on their own line:
- `MEDIA:<path>` → `▸ <path>` with the path rendered literal and wrapped
in a `Link` for OSC 8 hyperlink support (absolute paths get a
`file://` URL, so modern terminals make them click-to-open).
- `[[audio_as_voice]]` → dropped silently; it has no meaning in TUI.
Covers tests for quoted/backticked MEDIA variants, Windows drive paths,
whitespace, and the inline-in-prose case (left untouched — still
protected by the intraword-underscore guard).
The Activity accordion in ToolTrail tints red (via metaTone) when an error
item is present, but stays collapsed — the error is invisible until the
user clicks. Track the latest error id and force-open openMeta whenever
it advances. Users can still manually collapse; a new error re-opens.
Drops `lastUserAt` plumbing and the right-edge idle ticker. Matches the
claude-code / opencode convention: elapsed rides with the busy indicator
(spinner verb), nothing at idle.
- `turnStartedAt` driven by a useEffect on `ui.busy` — stamps on rising
edge, clears on falling edge. Covers agent turns and !shell alike.
- FaceTicker renders ` · {fmtDuration}` while busy; 1 s clock for the
counter, existing 2500 ms cycle for face/verb rotation.
- On busy → idle, if the block ran ≥ 1 s, emit a one-shot
`done in {fmtDuration}` sys line (≡ claude-code's `thought for Ns`).
Status bar ticker was too hot in peripheral vision. The moment the elapsed
value matters is when the prompt returns — so surface it there. Dim
`fmtDuration` next to the GoodVibesHeart, idle-only (hidden while busy),
so quick turns and active streaming stay quiet.
StatusRule now renders `{sinceLastMsg}/{sinceSession}` (e.g. `12s/3m 45s`)
when a user has submitted in the current session; falls back to the total
alone otherwise. Wires `lastUserAt` through the state/session lifecycle:
- useSubmission stamps `setLastUserAt(Date.now())` on send
- useSessionLifecycle nulls it in reset/resetVisibleHistory
- /branch slash nulls it on fork
- branding.tsx: `color="yellow"` → `t.color.warn` so light-mode users get the
burnt-orange warn instead of unreadable bright yellow on white bg.
- theme.ts: replace HERMES_TUI_LIGHT regex with `detectLightMode(env)` that also
sniffs `COLORFGBG` (XFCE Terminal, rxvt, Terminal.app, iTerm2). Bg slot 7 or
15 → LIGHT_THEME. Explicit HERMES_TUI_LIGHT (on *or* off) still wins.
- tests: cover empty env, explicit on/off, COLORFGBG positions, and off-override.
- Fix critical regression: on Linux, Ctrl+C could not interrupt/clear/exit
because isAction(key,'c') shadowed the isCtrl block (both resolve to k.ctrl
on non-macOS). Restructured: isAction block now falls through to interrupt
logic on non-macOS when no selection exists.
- Remove double pbcopy: ink's copySelection() already calls setClipboard()
which handles pbcopy+tmux+OSC52. The extra writeClipboardText call in
useInputHandlers copySelection() was firing pbcopy a second time.
- Remove allowClipboardHotkeys prop from TextInput — every caller passed
isMac, and TextInput already imports isMac. Eliminated prop-drilling
through appLayout, maskedPrompt, and prompts.
- Remove dead code: the isCtrl copy paths (lines 277-288) were unreachable
on any platform after the isAction block changes.
- Simplify textInput Cmd+C: use writeClipboardText directly without the
redundant OSC52 fallback (this path is macOS-only where pbcopy works).
Make the Ink TUI match macOS keyboard expectations: Command handles copy and common editor/session shortcuts, while Control remains reserved for interrupt/cancel flows. Update the visible hotkey help to show platform-appropriate labels.
- providers.ts: drop the `dup` intermediate, fold the ternary inline
- paths.ts (fmtCwdBranch): inline `b` into the `tag` template
- prompts.tsx (ConfirmPrompt): hoist a single `lower = ch.toLowerCase()`,
collapse the three early-return branches into two, drop the
redundant bounds checks on arrow-key handlers (setSel is idempotent
at 0/1), inline the `confirmLabel`/`cancelLabel` defaults at the
use site
- modelPicker.tsx / config/env.ts / providers.test.ts: auto-formatter
reflows picked up by `npm run fix`
- useInputHandlers.ts: drop the stray blank line that was tripping
perfectionist/sort-imports (pre-existing lint error)
The time-window gate felt wrong — users would hit /clear, read the
prompt, retype, and consistently blow past the window. Swapping to a
real yes/no overlay that blocks input like the existing Approval and
Clarify prompts.
- add ConfirmReq type + OverlayState.confirm + $isBlocked coverage
- ConfirmPrompt component (prompts.tsx): cancel row on top as the
default, danger-coloured confirm row on the bottom, Y/N hotkeys,
Enter on default = cancel, Esc/Ctrl+C cancel
- wire into PromptZone (appOverlays.tsx)
- /clear + /new now push onto the overlay instead of arming a timer
- HERMES_TUI_NO_CONFIRM=1 still skips the prompt for scripting
- drop the destructiveGate + createSlashHandler reset wiring
(destructive.ts and its tests removed)
Refs #4069.
Use provider.slug (and a composite key for model rows) instead of the
rendered string, so dupes in the backend response can't collapse two
rows into one or trigger key-collision warnings.
If the gateway returns two providers that resolve to the same display name
(e.g. `kimi-coding` and `kimi-coding-cn` both → "Kimi For Coding"), the
picker now appends the slug so users can tell them apart, in both the
provider list and the selected-provider header. No-op when names are
already unique.
Refs #10526 — the Python backend dedupe from #10599 skips one alias, but
user-defined providers, canonical overlays, and future regressions can
still surface as indistinguishable rows in the picker. This is a
client-side safety net on top of that.
Previous fix in 9dbf1ec6 handled Ctrl+C inside textInput but the APP-level
useInputHandlers fires the same keypress in a separate React hook and ran
clearIn() regardless. Net effect: the OSC 52 copy succeeded but the input
wiped right after, so Brooklyn only noticed the wipe.
Lift the selection-aware Ctrl+C to a single place by threading input
selection state through a new nanostore (src/app/inputSelectionStore.ts).
textInput syncs its derived `selected` range + a clear() callback to the
store on every selection change, and the app-level Ctrl+C handler reads
the store before its clear/interrupt/die chain:
- terminal-level selection (scrollback) → copy, existing behavior
- in-input selection present → copy + clear selection, preserve input
- input has text, no selection → clearIn(), existing behavior
- empty + busy → interrupt turn
- empty + idle → die
textInput no longer has its own Ctrl+C block; keypress falls through to
app-level like it did before 9dbf1ec6.
