On Windows WSL2, ConPTY implicitly enables mouse event injection when
the alternate screen buffer (DEC 1049) is entered, causing raw escape
sequences to appear in the transcript as ghost characters.
Fix (two parts):
1. ConPTY fix: send DISABLE_MOUSE_TRACKING immediately after entering
alt screen when mouse tracking is off (AlternateScreen.tsx)
2. Runtime toggle: add /mouse [on|off|toggle] slash command with config
persistence (display.tui_mouse) so users can manage this at runtime
The env var HERMES_TUI_DISABLE_MOUSE continues to work as the initial
default, but can now be overridden via /mouse and persisted to config.
Closes: upstream ConPTY mouse injection issue

- normalizeStatusBar: replace Set + early-returns + cast with a single
alias lookup table. Handles legacy `false`, trims/lowercases strings,
maps `on` → `top` in one pass. One expression, no `as` hacks.
- Tab title block: drop the narrative comment, fold
blockedOnInput/titleStatus/cwdTag/terminalTitle into inline expressions
inside useTerminalTitle. Avoids shadowing the outer `cwd`.
- tui_gateway statusbar set branch: read `display` once instead of
`cfg0.get("display")` twice.
- normalizeStatusBar: trim/lowercase + 'on' → 'top' alias so user-edited
YAML variants (Top, " bottom ", on) coerce correctly
- shift-tab yolo: no-op with sys note when no live session; success-gated
echo and catch fallback so RPC failures don't report as 'yolo off'
- tui_gateway config.set/get statusbar: isinstance(display, dict) guards
mirroring the compact branch so a malformed display scalar in config.yaml
can't raise
Tests: +1 vitest for trim/case/on, +2 pytest for non-dict display survival.
- normalizeStatusBar collapses to one ternary expression
- /statusbar slash hoists the toggle value and flattens the branch tree
- shift-tab yolo comment reduced to one line
- cursorLayout/offsetFromPosition lose paragraph-length comments
- appLayout collapses the three {!overlay.agents && …} into one fragment
- StatusRule drops redundant flexShrink={0} (Yoga default)
- server.py uses a walrus + frozenset and trims the compat helper
Net -43 LoC. 237 vitest + 46 pytest green, layouts unchanged.
'top' and 'bottom' are positions relative to the input row, not the alt
screen viewport:
- top (default) → inline above the input, where the bar originally lived
(what 'on' used to mean)
- bottom → below the input, pinned to the last row
- off → hidden
Drops the literal top-of-screen placement; 'on' is kept as a backward-
compat alias that resolves to 'top' at both the config layer
(normalizeStatusBar, _coerce_statusbar) and the slash command.
Default is back to 'on' (inline, above the input) — bottom was too far
from the input and felt disconnected. Users who want it pinned can
opt in explicitly.
- UiState.statusBar: boolean → 'on' | 'off' | 'bottom' | 'top'
- /statusbar [on|off|bottom|top|toggle]; no-arg still binary-toggles
between off and on (preserves muscle memory)
- appLayout renders StatusRulePane in three slots (inline inside
ComposerPane for 'on', above transcript row for 'top', after
ComposerPane for 'bottom'); only the slot matching ui.statusBar
actually mounts
- drop the input's marginBottom when 'bottom' so the rule sits tight
against the input instead of floating a row below
- useConfigSync.normalizeStatusBar coerces legacy bool (true→on,
false→off) and unknown shapes to 'on' for forward-compat reads
- tui_gateway: split compact from statusbar config handlers; persist
string enum with _coerce_statusbar helper for legacy bool configs
Extends ConfigDisplayConfig and UiState so the four new display flags
flow from `config.get {key:"full"}` into the nanostore. applyDisplay is
exported to keep the fan-out testable without an Ink harness.
Defaults mirror v1 parity: streaming + inline_diffs default true
(opt-out via `=== false`), show_cost + show_reasoning default false
(opt-in via plain truthy check).
- tui_gateway: route approvals through gateway callback (HERMES_GATEWAY_SESSION/
HERMES_EXEC_ASK) so dangerous commands emit approval.request instead of
silently falling through the CLI input() path and auto-denying
- approval UX: dedicated PromptZone between transcript and composer, safer
defaults (sel=0, numeric quick-picks, no Esc=deny), activity trail line,
outcome footer under the cost row
- text input: Ctrl+A select-all, real forward Delete, Ctrl+W always consumed
(fixes Ctrl+Backspace at cursor 0 inserting literal w)
- hermes-ink selection: swap synchronous onRender() for throttled
scheduleRender() on drag, and only notify React subscribers on presence
change — no more per-cell paint/subscribe spam
- useConfigSync: silence config.get polling failures instead of surfacing
'error: timeout: config.get' in the transcript
Hoist turn state from a 286-line hook into $turnState atom + turnController
singleton. createGatewayEventHandler becomes a typed dispatch over the
controller; its ctx shrinks from 30 fields to 5. Event-handler refs and 16
threaded actions are gone.
Fold three createSlash*Handler factories into a data-driven SlashCommand[]
registry under slash/commands/{core,session,ops}.ts. Aliases are data;
findSlashCommand does name+alias lookup. Shared guarded/guardedErr combinator
in slash/guarded.ts.
Split constants.ts + app/helpers.ts into config/ (timing/limits/env),
content/ (faces/placeholders/hotkeys/verbs/charms/fortunes), domain/ (roles/
details/messages/paths/slash/viewport/usage), protocol/ (interpolation/paste).
Type every RPC response in gatewayTypes.ts (26 new interfaces); drop all
`(r: any)` across slash + main app.
Shrink useMainApp from 1216 -> 646 lines by extracting useSessionLifecycle,
useSubmission, useConfigSync. Add <Fg> themed primitive and strip ~50
`as any` color casts.
Tests: 50 passing. Build + type-check clean.
