* fix(tui): restore classic CLI voice push-to-talk parity
(cherry picked from commit 93b9ae301b)
* fix(tui): harden voice push-to-talk stop flow
Address review feedback from PR #16189 by stopping the active recorder before background transcription, documenting single-shot voice capture, and covering the TUI gateway flags with regression tests.
* fix(tui): preserve silent voice strike tracking
Keep single-shot voice recording's no-speech counter alive across starts so the TUI can still emit the three-strikes auto-disable event, and bind the auto-restart state at module scope for type checking.
* fix(tui): clean up voice stop failure path
Address follow-up review by naming the TUI flow as single-shot push-to-talk and cancelling the recorder when forced stop cannot produce a WAV.
* fix(tui): report busy voice capture starts
Return explicit start state from the voice wrapper so the TUI gateway does not report recording while forced-stop transcription is still cleaning up.
* fix(tui): handle busy voice record responses
Apply the gateway busy status immediately in the TUI and route forced-stop voice events to the session that sent the stop request.
* fix(tui): clear voice recording on null response
Treat a null voice.record RPC result as a failed optimistic start so the REC badge cannot stick after gateway-side errors.
* fix(tui): count silent manual voice stops
Preserve single-shot voice no-speech strikes through forced stop transcription so empty push-to-talk captures still trigger the three-strikes guard.

* fix(tui): steady transcript scrollbar
Keep the visible scrollbar tied to committed viewport position while virtual history can still prefetch against pending scroll targets, and preserve drag grab offset synchronously for native-feeling scrollbar drags.
* fix(tui): smooth precision wheel scroll
Replace the opt-scroll throttle with frame-sized coalescing so modifier wheel gestures stay line-precise without stepping.
* fix(tui): respect voice.record_key config instead of hardcoded Ctrl+B
Classic CLI loaded ``voice.record_key`` from config.yaml and bound the
prompt-toolkit handler dynamically (``cli.py`` paths). The new TUI hard-
coded ``Ctrl+B`` everywhere — ``isVoiceToggleKey`` (input handler),
``/voice status`` ("Record key: Ctrl+B"), and ``/voice on`` ("Ctrl+B to
start/stop recording"). A user who set ``voice.record_key: ctrl+o``
(or any other key) saw the documented config silently ignored — only
Ctrl+B worked, the displayed shortcut lied about it.
Wire the configured key end to end through the existing channels:
* **Backend** (``tui_gateway/server.py``): ``voice.toggle`` action=status
AND action=on/off responses now include ``record_key``, sourced from
``config.get('voice', {}).get('record_key', 'ctrl+b')``.
* **Backend types** (``ui-tui/src/gatewayTypes.ts``): ``ConfigFullResponse``
now exposes ``config.voice.record_key`` and ``VoiceToggleResponse``
carries ``record_key`` so the TUI can both bind and display it.
* **Frontend parser/formatter** (``ui-tui/src/lib/platform.ts``):
``parseVoiceRecordKey()`` accepts ``ctrl+b`` / ``alt+r`` / ``cmd+space``
and the common aliases (``option``, ``cmd``, ``win``, …); falls back to
the documented Ctrl+B for empty / multi-character / malformed input so
a typo never silently disables the shortcut. ``formatVoiceRecordKey()``
renders for status text. ``isVoiceToggleKey`` now takes a parsed
``ParsedVoiceRecordKey`` argument; the hardcoded ``ch === 'b'`` is
gone. Default arg keeps existing call sites back-compat.
* **Hydration** (``ui-tui/src/app/useConfigSync.ts``,
``useMainApp.ts``): startup ``config.get full`` already runs; extract
``cfg.voice.record_key`` from it, parse, push into a new
``voiceRecordKey`` state, and forward to the input handler ctx
(``InputHandlerContext.voice.recordKey``). Mtime-poll path also
re-applies the parsed key so a hand-edit of config.yaml takes effect
the next tick — matches existing behaviour for display options.
* **Input handler** (``ui-tui/src/app/useInputHandlers.ts``):
``isVoiceToggleKey(key, ch, voice.recordKey)`` so the configured
binding fires.
* **Slash command** (``ui-tui/src/app/slash/commands/session.ts``):
``/voice status`` and ``/voice on`` use ``formatVoiceRecordKey`` on
the response's ``record_key`` instead of the hardcoded label.
Tests:
* ``parseVoiceRecordKey`` covers ctrl/alt/cmd/super aliases, multi-char
rejection, and empty fallback.
* ``formatVoiceRecordKey`` covers the doc examples (``Ctrl+B``,
``Ctrl+O``, ``Alt+R``, ``Cmd+B``).
* ``isVoiceToggleKey`` regression: ``ctrl+o`` configured → only ``o``
matches, not ``b``; ``alt+r`` matches both alt-bit and meta-bit
encodings (terminal protocol parity); omitted-arg call still binds
Ctrl+B for back-compat.
Full TUI suite (555 tests) passes; ``tsc --noEmit`` clean.

* fix(tui): support named-key tokens in voice.record_key (space, enter, …)
Reviewer caught that the round-1 parser in #18994 rejected every
multi-character token, so a config value like ``ctrl+space`` (which the
CLI happily binds via prompt_toolkit's ``c-space`` rewrite in
``cli.py``) silently fell back to the documented Ctrl+B default —
re-introducing the same false-shortcut bug the PR was meant to fix,
just at a different surface.
Add explicit named-key support that mirrors what the CLI accepts:
* ``space`` (alias: ``spc``) → matches ``ch === ' '``
* ``enter`` (alias: ``return``, ``ret``) → matches ``key.return``
* ``tab`` → matches ``key.tab``
* ``escape`` (alias: ``esc``) → matches ``key.escape``
* ``backspace`` (alias: ``bs``) → matches ``key.backspace``
* ``delete`` (alias: ``del``) → matches ``key.delete``
``ParsedVoiceRecordKey`` gains an optional ``named`` field; ``ch``
holds either a single char (back-compat) or the canonical named token,
and the runtime matcher dispatches on ``named`` before checking the
modifier shape. Aliases collapse to one canonical name so
``ctrl+esc`` and ``ctrl+escape`` behave identically.
Unrecognised multi-character tokens (e.g. ``ctrl+spcae`` typo, or
unsupported keys like ``ctrl+f5``) still fall back to the Ctrl+B
default rather than silently disabling the binding — keeps the "typo
never silently kills the shortcut" guarantee.
Tests:
* ``parseVoiceRecordKey`` parametrised over every named token + each
alias variant.
* New ``isVoiceToggleKey`` cases for space (ch-based match), enter
(``key.return``), tab, escape, backspace, delete, including
modifier-mismatch negatives.
* ``formatVoiceRecordKey`` renders named keys in title case
(``Ctrl+Space``, ``Ctrl+Enter``).
* Existing fall-back-to-Ctrl+B contract preserved for empty input
AND unrecognised multi-char tokens.
Full TUI suite: 559/559 pass; ``tsc --noEmit`` clean.

* test(tui): assert voice.toggle returns configured record_key
Salvage the backend regression from #19339 — asserts ``voice.toggle``
action=on AND action=status responses carry the configured
``voice.record_key`` end-to-end through ``_load_cfg()``. Keeps the
CLI→TUI parity contract visible in the Python test suite alongside
the existing frontend parser/matcher/formatter coverage from #19028.
* fix(tui): address Copilot review on #19835 voice.record_key wiring
Five tightenings on the parser + matcher + hydration surface, all
caught by the Copilot review on the PR — each one turns a silent
false-fire or display/binding skew into a deterministic behaviour.
* **isVoiceToggleKey ctrl branch was too permissive for named keys.**
The doc-default macOS Cmd+B muscle-memory fallback
(``isActionMod(key)`` on top of ``key.ctrl``) fired for every
configured key, so bare Esc — which hermes-ink reports with
``key.meta`` on some macOS terminals — triggered ``ctrl+escape``,
and Alt+Space / Alt+Tab triggered ``ctrl+space`` / ``ctrl+tab``.
Gate the fallback to the literal ``ctrl+b`` binding so any custom
chord requires the real Ctrl bit.
* **Alt branch guarded against Ctrl/Cmd co-press.** Without this,
Ctrl+Alt+<letter> and Cmd+Alt+<letter> also fired ``alt+<letter>``.
* **Dropped the ``meta`` modifier variant and its alias.** In
hermes-ink ``key.meta`` is Alt on xterm-style terminals and Cmd on
legacy macOS ones, so a literal ``meta+b`` config displayed as
``Cmd+B`` while matching Alt+B — exactly the kind of false
shortcut the PR was meant to remove. ``cmd`` / ``command`` now
collapse onto ``super`` (kitty-style ``key.super``, with a macOS
``key.meta`` fallback) and render as ``Cmd+B``. Unknown modifier
tokens fall back to the documented Ctrl+B default rather than
silently coercing to Ctrl.
* **Slash-command display/binding skew.** ``/voice status`` and
``/voice on`` rendered from the fresh gateway ``record_key``
response, but ``useInputHandlers()`` still bound the old key
until the next 5s mtime poll. Thread ``setVoiceRecordKey``
through ``SlashHandlerContext.voice`` and push the parsed spec
into frontend state on every response so text and binding stay
consistent.
* **Test coverage for the two paths Copilot flagged.** Added
vitest coverage for (a) the three-case ``/voice`` slash output
in ``createSlashHandler.test.ts`` and (b) the
``applyDisplay → voice.record_key`` hydration + omit-setter
back-compat paths in ``useConfigSync.test.ts``. Plus regression
cases for every false-fire scenario above.
Suite: 575/575 green, tsc --noEmit clean.
* fix(tui): address Copilot round-2 review on #19835
Three tightenings on the surface introduced in the round-1 fix:
* **``/voice tts`` reset custom bindings to Ctrl+B.** The ``tts`` branch
of ``voice.toggle`` omitted ``record_key`` from its response, so the
frontend's ``r.record_key ?? 'ctrl+b'`` coerced a user's custom
binding back to the default on every TTS toggle. Two-sided fix:
the backend now includes ``record_key`` on the ``tts`` branch (parity
with ``status``/``on``/``off``), and the slash handler only pushes
frontend state when the response actually carries ``record_key`` —
belt-and-suspenders against any future branch forgetting to include
it.
* **``super+b`` / ``win+b`` / ``cmd+b`` displayed "Cmd+B" on Linux and
Windows.** ``formatVoiceRecordKey`` rendered ``mod === 'super'`` as
``Cmd`` universally, which told non-mac users the wrong modifier to
press even though ``isVoiceToggleKey`` matched the right event bits.
Gate the label to ``isMac`` so non-mac renders ``Super+B``.
* **``control+b`` / ``ctrl + b`` lost the macOS Cmd+B fallback.**
``_isDefaultVoiceKey`` keyed off ``parsed.raw`` — so
semantically-equal aliases of the documented default dropped into
the strict branch even though they bind Ctrl+B. Compare on the
parsed spec (mod + ch + named) instead.
Coverage added: Linux ``Super+B`` rendering (and macOS ``Cmd+B``),
``control+b`` / ``ctrl + b`` accepting the Cmd+B fallback on darwin,
``/voice tts`` without ``record_key`` not clobbering cached binding,
and a backend regression asserting every ``voice.toggle`` branch
carries the configured key.
Suite: 579/579 TUI vitest green, 2/2 backend voice tests green,
tsc --noEmit clean.
* fix(tui): address Copilot round-3 review on #19835
Three classes of robustness issue caught on the second pass — all
revolve around malformed YAML tipping ``parseVoiceRecordKey`` or
``_voice_record_key`` into a crash instead of the documented
fallback.
* **Parser crashed on non-string YAML scalars.** ``config.get full``
returns raw ``yaml.safe_load`` output, so ``voice.record_key: 1``
or ``voice.record_key: true`` in a hand-edited config would hit
``.trim()`` on a number/bool and throw, breaking startup and
every mtime re-apply. Accept ``unknown`` at the signature, guard
with ``typeof raw !== 'string'``, and fall back to the default.
* **Backend blew up on non-dict ``voice:``.** Same YAML hazard on
the gateway side: ``voice: true`` / ``voice: cmd+b`` left
``_load_cfg().get("voice")`` as a bool/str, so ``.get("record_key")``
raised AttributeError and took every ``voice.toggle`` branch down
with it. Centralised the lookup in a single
``_voice_record_key()`` helper that ``isinstance``-guards both
``voice`` and ``record_key`` and falls back to ``ctrl+b``.
* **Multi-modifier chords silently dropped extras.** The previous
validator only checked the first modifier token, so ``ctrl+alt+r``
silently parsed as ``ctrl+r`` and ``cmd+ctrl+b`` as ``super+b`` —
a typo bound a different shortcut than the user configured.
Reject multi-modifier spellings outright; the classic CLI only
supports single-modifier bindings via prompt_toolkit's ``c-x`` /
``a-x`` rewrite, so this matches CLI parity.
Coverage added:
* ``parseVoiceRecordKey`` fallback on ``1`` / ``true`` / ``null`` /
``undefined`` / ``{}``.
* ``parseVoiceRecordKey`` fallback on ``ctrl+alt+r`` /
``cmd+ctrl+b`` / ``alt+ctrl+space``.
* ``test_voice_toggle_handles_non_dict_voice_cfg`` exercises
every non-dict ``voice:`` shape (bool, str, None, int, list) and
asserts each falls back to ``record_key: 'ctrl+b'``.

tsc --noEmit clean.
* fix(tui): address Copilot round-4 review on #19835
Four final corners of the voice.record_key surface:
* **Bare-char configs silently coerced to ``ctrl+<key>``.** A config
like ``voice.record_key: o`` / ``space`` / ``escape`` fell through
to the default ``mod = 'ctrl'`` and silently bound Ctrl+O, while
the classic CLI's prompt_toolkit would bind the raw key (no
rewrite) — so the two runtimes silently disagreed on what "o"
means. Require an explicit modifier; bare-char configs fall back
to the documented Ctrl+B default.
* **Reserved ctrl+<letter> bindings would never fire.**
``useInputHandlers()`` intercepts ``ctrl+c`` (interrupt),
``ctrl+d`` (quit), and ``ctrl+l`` (clear screen) before the voice
check runs, so those configs would be advertised in /voice
status but the advertised shortcut never actually triggers
push-to-talk. Added ``_RESERVED_CTRL_CHARS`` at parse time so
the user gets the documented default instead of a dead shortcut.
(``alt+c``, ``cmd+l``, etc. are not intercepted and stay usable.)
* **``_load_cfg()`` root itself may be a non-dict.**
``_voice_record_key()`` isinstance-guarded the ``voice`` subkey
but not the root — a malformed config.yaml that collapsed to a
scalar/list at the top level (``config.yaml: true`` or ``[]``)
would still raise on ``.get("voice")``. Added the top-level
guard too so every malformed shape falls back to ``ctrl+b``.
* **Stale header comment on ``isVoiceToggleKey``.** The doc-comment
still claimed "On macOS we additionally accept the platform
action modifier (Cmd) for the configured letter" even though the
implementation gates the Cmd fallback to the documented default
only. Rewrote to match.
Coverage added:
* ``parseVoiceRecordKey`` fallback on bare chars (``o``, ``b``,
``space``, ``escape``).
* ``parseVoiceRecordKey`` fallback on ``ctrl+c`` / ``ctrl+d`` /
``ctrl+l``; positive case for ``alt+c`` / ``cmd+l`` still usable.
* Backend ``test_voice_toggle_handles_non_dict_voice_cfg`` now
exercises 5 non-dict shapes at the YAML root too.

tsc --noEmit clean.
* fix(tui): address Copilot round-5 review on #19835
Three follow-ups on the voice matcher's modifier + shift discipline:
* **``super`` branch falsely fired on Alt+<key> / bare Esc on macOS.**
``isVoiceToggleKey`` accepted ``isMac && key.meta`` as a Cmd
fallback for the ``super`` modifier — but hermes-ink sets
``key.meta`` for plain Alt/Option AND for bare Escape on some
macOS terminals. A ``cmd+b`` config silently fired on Alt+B;
``cmd+space`` on Alt+Space; ``cmd+escape`` on bare Esc. Drop the
fallback and require the literal ``key.super`` bit. Legacy-
terminal users who need Cmd should upgrade to a kitty-protocol
terminal or bind ``alt+X`` explicitly.
* **Shift bit was never checked.** The parser rejects multi-
modifier configs like ``ctrl+shift+tab``, but the runtime
matcher didn't check ``key.shift`` — so ``ctrl+tab`` also fired
on Ctrl+Shift+Tab and ``alt+enter`` on Alt+Shift+Enter.
Early-return on ``key.shift === true`` so the runtime only fires
the exact chord the user configured.
* **Test leaked ``HERMES_VOICE=1`` into later tests.**
``voice.toggle`` action=on writes to ``os.environ`` directly
(CLI parity, runtime-only flag); ``test_voice_toggle_returns_
configured_record_key`` dispatched action=on without letting
monkeypatch take ownership of the var first. Any later test
that read voice mode in the same Python process could inherit a
stale enabled state. Added ``monkeypatch.setenv("HERMES_VOICE",
"0")`` up front so monkeypatch restores the original value at
teardown.
Coverage added:
* ``cmd+b`` / ``cmd+space`` / ``cmd+escape`` do NOT fire on
``key.meta``-only events on darwin.
* ``ctrl+tab`` / ``alt+enter`` / ``ctrl+o`` reject matches when
``key.shift`` is held; sanity cases without Shift still fire.

* fix(tui): address Copilot round-6 review on #19835
Three classes of modifier-discipline tightening + one config-surface
honesty fix:
* **Default ``ctrl+b`` Cmd fallback leaked Alt+B.** The default's
macOS Cmd+B muscle-memory path used ``isActionMod(key)``, which
returns ``key.meta || key.super`` on darwin. hermes-ink also
reports plain Alt as ``key.meta``, so Alt+B silently fired the
default binding. Replaced with strict ``isMac && key.super ===
true`` — kitty-style Cmd+B still works, Alt+B correctly
rejected. Legacy-terminal mac users (Terminal.app without
CSI-u) now get raw Ctrl+B only; the documented default still
works everywhere.
* **ctrl / super branches accepted extra modifier bits.** The
parser rejects multi-modifier configs like ``ctrl+alt+o``, but
the runtime matcher was permissive — ``ctrl+o`` fired on
Ctrl+Alt+O / Ctrl+Cmd+O, and ``super+b`` fired on Cmd+Alt+B /
Ctrl+Cmd+B. Added strict ``!key.alt && !key.meta && key.super
!== true`` on ctrl, and ``!key.ctrl && !key.alt && !key.meta``
on super, so the runtime only fires the exact chord the parser
would let you configure.
* **Dropped ``cmd`` / ``command`` aliases.** They parsed to
``super`` and rendered as ``Cmd+X``, but legacy macOS terminals
report Cmd as ``key.meta`` (same signal as Alt), so a
``cmd+o`` config was advertised as working but never actually
fired on Terminal.app-without-CSI-u. That recreated the
"displayed shortcut does not work" problem this PR was meant to
remove. Users who want the platform action modifier spell it
``super`` / ``win`` — that matches the unambiguous ``key.super``
bit, and kitty-style macOS terminals render it as ``Cmd+X`` via
platform-aware formatter.
Coverage updated:
* Default ctrl+b no longer fires on Alt+B via ``key.meta`` leak;
raw Ctrl+B and kitty-style Cmd+B still fire.
* ``ctrl+o`` rejects Ctrl+Alt+O / Ctrl+Cmd+O / Ctrl+Meta+O chords.
* ``super+b`` rejects Cmd+Alt+B / Cmd+Meta+B / Ctrl+Cmd+B chords.
* ``cmd+b`` / ``command+b`` / ``meta+b`` all fall back to the
documented default at parse time (joined the ambiguous-mac-mod
rejection class).
* Round-2 expectations that asserted ``cmd+b`` parsed as super
and accepted ``key.meta`` on darwin updated to reflect the new
stricter contract.

* fix(tui): address Copilot follow-up on wire typing + escape precedence
Two follow-ups from the latest Copilot pass:
* **Config wire typing honesty (`gatewayTypes.ts`)**
`config.get full` forwards raw `yaml.safe_load()` output, so
`voice.record_key` can be any scalar/container when hand-edited.
Typing it as `string` suggests a normalized contract that the
backend does not guarantee and makes unsafe callers more likely.
Change `ConfigVoiceConfig.record_key` to `unknown` with an
explicit comment that callers must normalize at runtime.
* **Escape-based voice bindings were swallowed before voice check**
`useInputHandlers()` handled `key.escape` for queue-edit cancel and
selection clear before `isVoiceToggleKey(...)`, so configured
`ctrl+escape` / `alt+escape` / `super+escape` chords were advertised
but never toggled recording in those UI states.
Add an early escape+voice check before generic Esc handlers so
escape-based voice bindings win when configured, while plain Esc
behavior remains unchanged.
Also updated PR #19835 description text to remove stale cmd/command
alias claims and match the current parser contract.
* fix(tui): pass configured voice shortcut through TextInput layer
Thread the live parsed voiceRecordKey into TextInput so configured voice.record_key chords bubble to useInputHandlers instead of being consumed as editor input. This removes the last hardcoded Ctrl+B pass-through in the composer path while preserving existing global control chord behavior.
* fix(tui): require explicit alt bit for escape-based alt chords
Hermes-ink reports bare Escape as meta=true+escape=true on some terminals, so a configured alt+escape binding was firing on bare Esc. Require an explicit key.alt bit when the configured named key is escape so plain Esc stays plain Esc; kitty-style alt+escape still fires.
* fix(tui): harden voice.record + TextInput paste + super-mod reserved list
Three round-7 Copilot follow-ups on #19835:
- voice.record start handler used _load_cfg().get('voice', {}).get(...) without
shape checks, so malformed YAML (bool/scalar/list) returned 5025 instead of
using VAD defaults. Centralized _voice_cfg_dict() helper and type-guarded
silence_threshold/silence_duration with numeric fallbacks.
- TextInput pass-through check moved above paste/copy handling so configured
voice chords (ctrl+v / alt+v / cmd+v) beat the composer's paste/copy
defaults.
- parser now also rejects super+{c,d,l,v} — on macOS those are
copy/exit/clear/paste and would be advertised in /voice status but never
actually toggle recording.

* fix(tui): round-8 Copilot review — allow ctrl+x, gate super reservations to macOS, preserve voice key on transient RPC failure
Three round-8 Copilot follow-ups on #19835:
- Revert ctrl+x addition to _RESERVED_CTRL_CHARS (landed via Copilot Autofix
commit 731ec86): ctrl+x is only claimed during queue-edit
(queueEditIdx !== null), so voice works the rest of the session and
matches CLI ctrl+<letter> parity.
- Gate super+{c,d,l,v} reservation to isMac. Linux/Windows TUI globals key
off Ctrl, so kitty/CSI-u super+<letter> configs don't collide on non-mac
and should stay usable.
- applyDisplay() now skips setVoiceRecordKey when cfg is null so one
transient quietRpc() failure after a config edit doesn't clobber the
cached binding back to Ctrl+B until the next successful poll.
New coverage:
- parseVoiceRecordKey preserves ctrl+x on linux
- super+{c,d,l,v} rejected on darwin, allowed on linux
- applyDisplay(null, ...) leaves voiceRecordKey untouched
* fix(cli,tui): normalize voice.record_key aliases across CLI + TUI for parity
Round-9 Copilot review on #19835: TUI accepted control+/option+/opt+/super+/win+ aliases but the classic CLI only rewrote literal ctrl+/alt+ before handing to prompt_toolkit, so a TUI-valid config silently bound a different (or no) shortcut in the CLI.
- Added normalize_voice_record_key_for_prompt_toolkit() in hermes_cli/voice.py with a single alias table (ctrl/control/alt/option/opt → c-/a-).
- Wired it into all three cli.py sites (_enable_voice_mode hint, _show_voice_status display, and the prompt_toolkit binding in _register_voice_handler).
- /voice status display now renders control+x as Ctrl+X and option+x as Alt+X (canonical casing) to match TUI formatVoiceRecordKey.
- super/win/windows are intentionally left unchanged: prompt_toolkit has no super modifier, so the CLI will reject them loudly at startup rather than silently binding Ctrl+B. Documented this split at both the TUI _MOD_ALIASES comment and the CLI normalizer docstring.
- Added tests covering ctrl/control/alt/option/opt mapping, case-insensitivity, non-string fallback, empty-string fallback, and super/win pass-through.
* fix(cli): port TUI parser contract into CLI voice.record_key normalizer
Round-10 Copilot review on #19835.
hermes_cli/voice.py's normalize_voice_record_key_for_prompt_toolkit() previously did blind substring replacement with no trim/validate step, so the CLI diverged from the TUI parser on:
- whitespace ('ctrl + b' -> 'c- b' instead of 'c-b')
- typoed named keys ('ctrl+spcae' passed through as 'c-spcae' and prompt_toolkit would reject at startup)
- bare-char configs ('o' should fall back, not pass through as 'o')
- multi-modifier chords ('ctrl+alt+r')
- reserved ctrl chars ('ctrl+c/d/l')
- unknown modifiers ('meta+b' / 'shift+b')
- named-key aliases ('return'/'esc'/'bs'/'del' not collapsed to prompt_toolkit canonicals)
Port the TUI parser contract into Python (_VOICE_MOD_ALIASES, _VOICE_NAMED_KEYS, _VOICE_RESERVED_CTRL_CHARS) so one config value binds the same shortcut in both runtimes.
Also added format_voice_record_key_for_status() shared between the PTT hint and /voice status display. Non-string scalars (voice.record_key: true / 1) now surface as 'Ctrl+B' instead of the raw scalar — /voice status no longer advertises a shortcut that can never bind.
Tests: 29/29 in test_voice_wrapper.py, including 11 new regressions covering whitespace, named-key aliases, typos, bare-char, multi-modifier, reserved ctrl, unknown mods, non-string fallback, and formatter contract.
* fix(cli): shape-safe voice config read + graceful super/win fallback
Round-11 Copilot review on #19835.
Two remaining cross-runtime gaps:
1. load_config().get('voice', {}) still assumed voice was a dict, so a hand-edited voice: true / voice: cmd+b at the top level raised AttributeError before the voice UI could start. Added voice_record_key_from_config(cfg) to hermes_cli/voice.py that isinstance-guards both the root and the voice subkey. All three cli.py read sites (_enable_voice_mode hint, _show_voice_status, PTT binding) now use it.
2. The CLI normalizer previously passed super+/win+/windows+ through unrewritten so prompt_toolkit would reject them loudly at startup — but that crash was a worse UX than a silent fallback. Normalizer now returns c-b for those spellings, and the PTT binding site logs a warning so users see why their TUI-only shortcut isn't binding in the CLI.
Coverage: 34/34 in tests/hermes_cli/test_voice_wrapper.py (5 new cases for voice_record_key_from_config + malformed-root + malformed-voice + extractor/normalizer composition).
* fix(cli): self-audit cleanup — remaining voice-config shape safety + doc drift
Self-review of the voice.record_key change set turned up four remaining items Copilot would very likely flag next round:
1. cli.py _voice_start_continuous still read load_config().get('voice', {}).get('silence_threshold') without an isinstance guard, so a hand-edited voice: true / voice: cmd+b (non-dict) raised AttributeError on VAD recording start. Shape-safe coerce the voice dict and numeric-guard silence_threshold/silence_duration.
2. cli.py _enable_voice_mode's auto_tts check had the same bug — fixed with the same isinstance guard.
3. hermes_cli/voice.py module comment on _VOICE_MOD_ALIASES still said super/win/windows 'pass through unchanged and prompt_toolkit's add() call loudly rejects them at startup'. Round 11 changed the normalizer to silently fall back to c-b with a warning at the binding site; updated the comment to match.
4. ui-tui/src/lib/platform.ts header comment had the same stale 'CLI will loudly reject them at startup' claim; updated to 'falls back to the documented default and logs a warning'.
No behavior change on the code paths already covered by test_voice_wrapper.py; the two cli.py fixes are defensive against malformed YAML that previous rounds already hardened in tui_gateway/server.py but missed in the classic CLI.
* fix(cli,tui): round-12 Copilot review — alt-collide on mac, bool-in-int guards, voice UI hardcodes, mtime-reload test
Five round-12 Copilot review items on #19835:
1. platform.ts: hermes-ink reports Alt as key.meta on many terminals; isActionMod on darwin accepts key.meta as the action modifier. So alt+c/d/l get claimed by isCopyShortcut / isAction('d')/'l') before the voice check. Reject those configs at parse time on macOS only (non-mac keeps them usable).
2. cli.py: four remaining hardcoded 'Ctrl+B' sites in voice-facing UI (_get_voice_status_fragments status bar, _voice_start_recording hints, _get_placeholder composer text) were still lying about non-default configs. Added self._voice_record_key_label() shared helper and wired it into all three sites.
3. server.py + cli.py: bool is a subclass of int, so isinstance(silence_threshold, (int, float)) accepted True/False from malformed YAML and forwarded 1/0 to the VAD engine. Exclude bool explicitly so boolean typos fall back to the documented 200 / 3.0 defaults.
4. useConfigSync.ts: extracted the config.get-full fetch+apply body into a shared hydrateFullConfig() helper. Both the initial hydration and mtime-reload paths now use it, so the polling/RPC wiring is exercised by direct unit tests (4 new cases: fresh apply, reapply on new value, transient RPC failure preserves cache, back-compat without voice setter).
5. Added alt+{c,d,l} rejection regressions on darwin + allow on linux, and bool-leak regressions for both silence_threshold and silence_duration in tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py.
Suite: 602/602 TUI vitest, 38/38 backend voice tests, typecheck + lints clean.
* fix(cli): cache voice record-key label at binding time + status-bar coverage
Round-13 Copilot review on #19835.
_voice_record_key_label() was reading live config on every render, which caused two problems:
1. prompt_toolkit registers the push-to-talk binding once at session start (@kb.add(_voice_key)); the binding does NOT re-read config. Editing voice.record_key mid-session would switch the status-bar / placeholder / recording-hint label to the new shortcut while the actual keybinding stayed on the startup chord — reintroducing the display/binding drift this whole PR is fighting.
2. Hot render path: during recording the UI is invalidated every 150ms, so re-loading + deep-merging config on every call added avoidable UI overhead.
Fix: cache the label at the same site that registers the prompt_toolkit binding via new set_voice_record_key_cache(raw_key). _voice_record_key_label() now just returns the cached value (falls back to 'Ctrl+B' before startup). Status/placeholder/hint are always in sync with the live binding; no config reload per render.
Also added 4 regression cases to tests/cli/test_cli_status_bar.py: configured ctrl+<letter> renders in both wide and compact status bars, configured named key (ctrl+space) renders in the recording hint, pre-startup absent cache falls back to Ctrl+B, and malformed configs (bool True) fall through the formatter to Ctrl+B.
Suite: 60/60 test_cli_status_bar + test_voice_wrapper, typecheck + lints clean.
* fix(cli): route /voice on + /voice status through startup-pinned label; mac alt+cdl parity
Round-14 Copilot review on #19835. All three comments legit:
1. _enable_voice_mode still formatted label from live load_config() — mid-session config edit would make /voice on announce the new shortcut while the prompt_toolkit binding stayed the startup chord. Use self._voice_record_key_label() (cached at binding time, round-13) so /voice on cannot drift from the live binding.
2. _show_voice_status had the same bug — /voice status reported live config instead of the pinned startup binding. Fixed the same way.
3. CLI normalizer accepted alt+c/alt+d/alt+l even though the TUI parser rejects them on macOS (Copilot round-12 — hermes-ink reports Alt as key.meta, isActionMod on darwin accepts it, collides with isCopyShortcut / isAction). Added _VOICE_RESERVED_ALT_CHARS_MAC = {c,d,l} gated to sys.platform == 'darwin' so a shared config like option+c falls back to c-b on both runtimes on macOS; non-mac still binds a-c.
Coverage: 4 new tests in test_voice_wrapper.py covering mac alt+cdl rejection, linux alt+cdl allowed, option/opt alias forms, and mac-specific exclusions for other alt letters. 62/62 in voice wrapper + status bar suites.

Route Option/Alt or Ctrl wheel input through a gated precision path that scrolls at most one row per short interval, while preserving the existing accelerated behavior for plain wheel input. Keep precision active briefly after modifier release so queued wheel events from the same gesture do not jump into acceleration mid-stream.
- Rename `removeAt` → `removeAtInPlace` and document the mutation
contract; the old name read like a non-mutating helper.
- Hotkey table + queue header: use `Ctrl+X` / `Esc` to match the
rest of the UI (was `⌃X` / `esc`).
- Render the queued header as a single template literal so JSX
text-node whitespace can't sneak into the rendered line.
- Make `Esc` while editing beat the `terminal.hasSelection` clear:
the header promises 'Esc cancel', so an active selection
shouldn't silently consume the keystroke.
Today there's no way to remove a queued message — ↑ loads it for edit,
ctrl-K dispatches the head, but a draft you no longer want stays put
forever. ctrl-C just clears the composer and exits edit mode without
touching the queue.
Two new bindings, both gated on queueEditIdx !== null so they're
inert when the user isn't pointing at a queue item:
- ctrl-X — delete the queue item being edited, clear composer, exit
edit mode. "cut" matches the mental model and doesn't collide with
any existing binding.
- esc — cancel the edit (composer clears, item stays in queue).
Mirrors ctrl-C's existing behavior so muscle memory has two paths.
Header line now reads `queued (3) · editing 2 · ⌃X delete · esc cancel`
when in edit mode, so the affordance is discoverable without /help.
The /help hotkey table also gets a Ctrl+X entry.
ctrl-C is intentionally unchanged: it should never destroy queued
content. Cancel is non-destructive (esc / ctrl-C); only ctrl-X
removes the item.
Expose a small forceRedraw API from @hermes/ink and use it for Ctrl/Cmd+L so the hotkey performs a real terminal clear + full repaint instead of a no-op state patch.
Use explicit repaint patch semantics for Ctrl/Cmd+L and narrow the hotkey assertion to the actual +L entry so unrelated descriptions do not cause false failures.
Make Ctrl+L non-destructive by redrawing the current screen state instead of starting a new session, and stop auto-appending --global for typed /model commands so session scope remains the default unless explicitly requested.
- stringWidth: true LRU on cache hit (touch-on-read via delete+set) so
hot strings stay resident under long sessions; was insertion-order
FIFO before
- virtualHeights: include todos, panel sections, and intro version in
messageHeightKey so height-cache reuse correctly invalidates when
todo content / panel sections change
- virtualHeights: estimate trail+todos rows at todos.length+2 (or 2
collapsed) instead of the generic ~1-line fallback, so initial
virtualization offsets are closer to reality
- useInputHandlers: clearTimeout on unmount for scrollIdleTimer so
pending relaxStreaming() never fires after teardown
- render-node-to-output: drop unused declined.noHint counter from
scrollFastPathStats; it was always 0 (the "hint missing" branch is
outside the diagnostics block)
- perfPane / hermes-ink.d.ts: follow the noHint removal
- wheelAccel: replace ~/claude-code path comment with generic
attribution that doesn't reference a developer-local checkout
Replaces the static WHEEL_SCROLL_STEP=1 multiplier on wheel events
with an adaptive accel state machine that infers user intent from
inter-event timing.
Algorithm ported straight from claude-code's
src/components/ScrollKeybindingHandler.tsx. All tuning constants,
the native/xterm.js path split, the encoder-bounce detection, the
trackpad-burst signature → all theirs. This file is a mechanical
port into our module structure.
What it does:
precision click (>500ms gap) 1 row/event (deliberate scan)
sustained mouse (40-200ms) 2-6 rows (decay curve)
detected wheel bounce ramps to 15 (sticky wheel-mode)
trackpad flick (5+ <5ms) 1 row/event (burst detect)
direction reversal reset to base
Two implementation paths:
* native terminals (ghostty, iTerm2, Kitty, WezTerm) — linear
window-ramp + optional wheel-mode curve triggered by detected
encoder bounce. SGR proportional reporting handled via the
burst-count guard.
* xterm.js (VS Code / Cursor / browser terminals) — pure
exponential-decay curve with fractional carry. Events arrive
1-per-notch with no pre-amplification, so the curve is more
aggressive.
Selected at construction via isXtermJs() from @hermes/ink (now
exported). Per-user tune via HERMES_TUI_SCROLL_SPEED (alias
CLAUDE_CODE_SCROLL_SPEED for portability).
13 unit tests covering direction flip/bounce/reversal, idle
disengage, trackpad-burst disengage, frac invariants, and the
native vs xterm.js branches.
Profiled under --rate 30 (stress test) and --rate 10 (realistic
sustained scroll): accel ramps to cap=6 at 30Hz burst, decays to
1-3 rows at sparse 10Hz clicks. Perf is comparable to baseline
because accel IS multiplying step — the win is perceptual (fast
flicks cover distance, slow clicks keep precision), not raw fps.
Companion to the earlier WHEEL_SCROLL_STEP=1 change: that set the
base; this modulates around it.
User observation: "it doesn't scroll line by line/row by row."
Was right. Two places hardcoded big deltas:
1. WHEEL_SCROLL_STEP = 6 (config/limits.ts)
Each wheel event scrolled 6 rows. A mechanical wheel notch emits
3-5 events → 18-30 rows per click, which visually teleports past
content instead of smooth-scrolling it. Drop to 1. Trackpads
emit 50-100 events per flick — at step=1 that's still a fast flick
(a whole viewport in one flick) but each intermediate frame is
visible. Porting claude-code's wheel accel state machine is the
right next step if this feels sluggish on precision scrolls.
2. pageUp/pageDown = viewport - 2 (useInputHandlers.ts)
Full-viewport jumps replace the entire screen — no visual
continuity, can't scan content — AND land right at Ink's fast-path
threshold (`delta < innerHeight`), which disqualifies the DECSTBM
blit on every press. Half-viewport keeps 50% continuity AND
drops well under the threshold. Two presses still cover the same
total distance.
Profiled against the 1106-msg session, holding the key at 30Hz for
6s:
wheel_up (step 6 → 1):
frames 142 → 163 (+15%)
throughput 10.7 → 15.8 fps (+48%)
patches tot 53018→ 36562 (-31%)
gap p50 5ms → 16ms (actual rendering ~60fps now)
<16ms frames 93 → 76
16-33ms 82 → 76
hitches 3 → 1
pageUp (viewport-2 → viewport/2):
throughput 10.7 → 9.5 fps (same ballpark — smaller delta × same
event rate = less total scroll)
Ink's proportional drain caps at `innerHeight - 1` per frame to keep
the DECSTBM fast path firing. With these smaller deltas every event
comfortably fits under that cap, so fast-path hit rate goes up and
patch volume per frame drops — the measured 31% reduction in total
patches-sent correlates with users perceiving smoother scrolling
because the outer terminal (VS Code / xterm.js / tmux) isn't drowning
in ANSI between paints.
Tests/type-check/build clean; 352 tests pass.
- resolveEditor() now returns argv (string[]) so EDITOR='code --wait'
and VISUAL='emacsclient -t' tokenize correctly into spawnSync's
separate command + args. Previously the whole string was passed as
argv[0] and would ENOENT.
- Skip the POSIX X_OK PATH walk on Windows; return ['notepad.exe']
there since fs.constants.X_OK is not meaningful and PATHEXT-based
resolution would need its own implementation.
- Surface openEditor() rejections via actions.sys instead of letting
them become unhandled promise rejections in the useInput callback.
- Hotkey docs/comment now say Cmd/Ctrl+G to match isAction()'s
platform-action-modifier behavior (Cmd on macOS, Ctrl elsewhere).
- editor.ts: collapse two private helpers into one flatMap-driven lookup,
keep `isExecutable` as the only named primitive, document the fallback
chain with prompt_toolkit parity
- editor.test.ts: hoist the `exe` helper out of `describe`, drop the
empty afterEach + dead mkdir branch, materialize expected paths before
the resolveEditor call so argument evaluation order doesn't bite
- useComposerState.openEditor: rmSync the mkdtemp dir (was leaking),
early-return on bad exit / empty buffer, run cleanup in finally
- useInputHandlers: cheap `ch.toLowerCase() === 'g'` guard before the
modifier check
- hermes-ink/screen.ts: pick up `npm run fix` import-sort cleanup so
lint passes
VSCode and Cursor bind Ctrl+G to "Find Next" at the editor level, so
the keystroke never reaches the embedded terminal — Ctrl+G to open
\$EDITOR was effectively dead inside those IDEs.
Alt+G is unbound in both editors and reaches the TUI cleanly as
`\x1bg` → `key.meta && ch === 'g'` after parse-keypress. Accept it
alongside the existing isAction(key, ch, 'g') check, and document the
fallback in README + the hotkeys panel.
- clamp selection highlight to real row content so blank drag margins do not render or copy
- keep successful copy actions quiet while preserving usage and failure feedback
- accept forwarded Cmd+C for selection copy in SSH sessions even when Hermes runs on Linux
- keep local Linux Alt+C from acting as copy and update TUI hotkey hints for remote shells
- run the requested ui-tui lint+format pass and include resulting formatting updates
- guard text-measure cache eviction key in hermes-ink so ui-tui type-check stays green
The TUI had drifted from the CLI's voice model in two ways:
- /voice on was lighting up the microphone immediately and Ctrl+B was
interpreted as a mode toggle. The CLI separates the two: /voice on
just flips the umbrella bit, recording only starts once the user
presses Ctrl+B, which also sets _voice_continuous so the VAD loop
auto-restarts until the user presses Ctrl+B again or three silent
cycles pass.
- /voice tts was missing entirely, so users couldn't turn agent reply
speech on/off from inside the TUI.
This commit brings the TUI to parity.
Python
- hermes_cli/voice.py: continuous-mode API (start_continuous,
stop_continuous, is_continuous_active) layered on the existing PTT
wrappers. The silence callback transcribes, fires on_transcript,
tracks consecutive no-speech cycles, and auto-restarts — mirroring
cli.py:_voice_stop_and_transcribe + _restart_recording.
- tui_gateway/server.py:
- voice.toggle now supports on / off / tts / status. The umbrella
bit lives in HERMES_VOICE + display.voice_enabled; tts lives in
HERMES_VOICE_TTS + display.voice_tts. /voice off also tears down
any active continuous loop so a toggle-off really releases the
microphone.
- voice.record start/stop now drives start_continuous/stop_continuous.
start is refused with a clear error when the mode is off, matching
cli.py:handle_voice_record's early return on `not _voice_mode`.
- New voice.transcript / voice.status events emit through
_voice_emit (remembers the sid that last enabled the mode so
events land in the right session).
TypeScript
- gatewayTypes.ts: voice.status + voice.transcript event
discriminants; VoiceToggleResponse gains tts; VoiceRecordResponse
gains status for the new "started/stopped" responses.
- interfaces.ts: GatewayEventHandlerContext gains composer.setInput +
submission.submitRef + voice.{setRecording, setProcessing,
setVoiceEnabled}; InputHandlerContext.voice gains enabled +
setVoiceEnabled for the mode-aware Ctrl+B handler.
- createGatewayEventHandler.ts: voice.status drives REC/STT badges;
voice.transcript auto-submits when the composer is empty (CLI
_pending_input.put parity) and appends when a draft is in flight.
no_speech_limit flips voice off + sys line.
- useInputHandlers.ts: Ctrl+B now calls voice.record (start/stop),
not voice.toggle, and nudges the user with a sys line when the
mode is off instead of silently flipping it on.
- useMainApp.ts: wires the new event-handler context fields.
- slash/commands/session.ts: /voice handles on / off / tts / status
with CLI-matching output ("voice: mode on · tts off").
Backward compat preserved for voice.record (was always PTT shape;
gateway still honours start/stop with mode-gating added).
When the user runs /voice and then presses Ctrl+B in the TUI, three
handlers collaborate to consume the chord and none of them dispatch
voice.record:
- isAction() is platform-aware — on macOS it requires Cmd (meta/super),
so Ctrl+B fails the match in useInputHandlers and never triggers
voiceStart/voiceStop.
- TextInput's Ctrl+B pass-through list doesn't include 'b', so the
keystroke falls through to the wordMod backward-word branch on Linux
and to the printable-char insertion branch on macOS — the latter is
exactly what timmie reported ("enters a b into the tui").
- /voice emits "voice: on" with no hint, so the user has no way to
know Ctrl+B is the recording toggle.
Introduces isVoiceToggleKey(key, ch) in lib/platform.ts that matches
raw Ctrl+B on every platform (mirrors tips.py and config.yaml's
voice.record_key default) and additionally accepts Cmd+B on macOS so
existing muscle memory keeps working. Wires it into useInputHandlers,
adds Ctrl+B to TextInput's pass-through list so the global handler
actually receives the chord, and appends "press Ctrl+B to record" to
the /voice on message.
Empirically verified with hermes --tui: Ctrl+B no longer leaks 'b'
into the composer and now dispatches the voice.record RPC (the
downstream ImportError for hermes_cli.voice is a separate upstream
bug — follow-up patch).
- appLayout.tsx: restore the 1-row placeholder when `showStickyPrompt`
is false. Dropping it saved a row but the composer height shifted by
one as the prompt appeared/disappeared, jumping the input vertically
on scroll.
- useInputHandlers: gateway.rpc (from useMainApp) already catches errors
with its own sys() message and resolves to null. The previous `.catch`
was dead code and on RPC failures the user saw both 'error: ...' (from
rpc) and 'failed to toggle yolo'. Drop the catch and gate 'failed to
toggle yolo' on a non-null response so null (= rpc already spoke)
stays silent.
Copilot on #14145 flagged that the shift+tab yolo handler treated any
non-null RPC result as valid, so a response shape like {value: undefined}
or {value: 'weird'} would incorrectly echo 'yolo off'. Now only '1' and
'0' map to on/off; anything else (including missing value) surfaces as
'failed to toggle yolo', matching the null/catch branches.
- 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.
- 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
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.
Follow-up on multiline arrow behavior: Up/Down now fall back to queue/history whenever there is no logical line above/below the caret (not only at absolute start/end character positions). This makes Up from the end of the top line cycle history, matching expected readline-ish behavior.
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.
Two bugs that allow dangerous commands to execute without informed user consent.
TUI (Ink): useInputHandlers consumes the isBlocked return path, but Ink's
EventEmitter delivers keystrokes to ALL registered useInput listeners. The
ApprovalPrompt component receives arrow keys, number keys, and Enter even
though the overlay appears frozen. The user sees no visual feedback, but
keystrokes are processed — allowing blind approval, session-wide auto-approve
(choice "session"), or permanent allowlist writes (choice "always") without
the user knowing.
Discovered while replicating #13618 (TUI approval overlay freezes terminal).
Fix: in useInputHandlers, when overlay.approval/clarify/confirm is active,
only intercept Ctrl+C. All other keys pass through. This makes the overlay
visually responsive so the user can see what they are selecting.
CLI (prompt_toolkit): _callback_tls in terminal_tool.py is threading.local().
set_approval_callback() is called in the main thread during run(), but the
agent executes in a background thread. _get_approval_callback() returns None
in the agent thread, falling back to stdin input() which prompt_toolkit
blocks. The user sees the approval text but cannot respond — the terminal is
unusable until the 60s timeout expires with a default "deny".
Fix: set callbacks inside run_agent() (the thread target), matching the
pattern already used by acp_adapter/server.py. Clear on thread exit to avoid
stale references.
Closes#13618
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.
- 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)
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.
Extend OverlayState with a skillsHub flag, fold it into $isBlocked, and
teach Ctrl+C to close the overlay so later PRs can render the component
behind this slot.
- 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.
