- entry.tsx no longer writes bootBanner() to the main screen before the
alt-screen enters. The <Banner> renders inside the alt screen via the
seeded intro row, so nothing is lost — just the flash that preceded it.
Fixes the torn first frame reported on Alacritty (blitz row 5 #17) and
shaves the 'starting agent' hang perception (row 5 #1) since the UI
paints straight into the steady-state view
- AlternateScreen prefixes ERASE_SCROLLBACK (\x1b[3J) to its entry so
strict emulators start from a pristine grid; named constants replace
the inline sequences for clarity
- bootBanner.ts deleted — dead code
- 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
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.
Guards four unbounded growth paths reachable at idle — the shape matches
reports of the TUI hitting V8's 2GB heap limit after ~1m of idle with 0
tokens used (Mark-Compact freed ~6MB of 2045MB → pure retention).
- `GatewayClient.logs` + `gateway.stderr` events: 200-line cap is bytes-
uncapped; a chatty Python child emitting multi-MB lines (traceback,
dumped config, unsplit JSON) retains everything. Truncate at 4KB/line.
- `GatewayClient.bufferedEvents`: unbounded until `drain()` fires. Cap
at 2000 so a pre-mount event storm can't pin memory indefinitely.
- `useMainApp` gateway `exit` handler: didn't reset `turnController`, so
a mid-stream crash left `bufRef`/`reasoningText` alive forever.
- `pasteSnips` count-capped (32) but byte-uncapped. Add a 4MB total cap
and clear snips in `clearIn` so submitted pastes don't linger.
- `StylePool.transitionCache`: uncapped `Map<number,string>`. Full-clear
at 32k entries (mirrors `charCache` pattern).
- drop inline `import()` type annotation in useSessionLifecycle (import
`PanelSection` at the top like everything else)
- include `panel` and `session.resumeById` in the useMainApp useMemo
deps now that the event handler depends on them
- wrap the derived `selected` range in a useMemo so it has stable
identity and stops invalidating the TextInput `rendered` memo every
render
- prettier re-sorting of a couple of export/import lines
- hermes-ink: export `withInkSuspended()` + `useExternalProcess()` that
pause/resume Ink around an arbitrary external process (built on the
existing enterAlternateScreen/exitAlternateScreen plumbing)
- tui: `launchHermesCommand(args)` spawns the `hermes` binary with
inherited stdio, with `HERMES_BIN` override for non-standard launches
- tui: `/model` and `/setup` slash commands invoke the CLI wizards
in-place, then re-preflight `setup.status` and auto-start a session on
success — no more exit-and-relaunch to finish first-run setup
- setup panel now advertises those slashes instead of only pointing
users back at the shell
- 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
