- 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.
