A program that asked for focus reports (1004) hears CSI I when its pane takes the keyboard and CSI O when it gives it up, to another pane, a tag or another window

2026-10-01T03:12:17Z

The core has a window-focus event now, from SDL's window focus and from the tty's own focus reports (vaxis turns 1004 on outside); the detached wire carries it: version 10. The test shell's ESC]777;mouse;focus;<1|0> fakes the window's. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

A mouse event carries Shift and Alt as well as Ctrl, from SDL and from the tty's input; a program's wheel report carries them as xterm counts them, and Shift keeps the wheel pardes's own scroll

2026-10-01T03:12:17Z

The reports are ghostty's encoder now (shift+4, meta+8, ctrl+16), with the mode and format ghostty tracks. The detached wire carries the two new bits: version 9. The test shell's ESC]777;mouse takes an optional fifth field of modifiers. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

shader_build.zig is ShaderBuild.zig: a file that is a struct (its fields are the post chain's builds) takes a type's name

2026-10-01T03:12:17Z

The naming the split agreed on: a file with fields is a type, TitleCase, as Messages.zig and Layer.zig are. Its importers bind it as ShaderBuild; comments and docs/render-pipeline.md name the new file. No behaviour changes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

The theme's chrome is worked out once, not per grapheme; still post passes let the GUI rest; a perf gate

2026-10-01T03:12:16Z

somtrmsz's contrast floors made ChromeTheme.fromTheme run its focus-tint and separator searches (pow calls each), and Output's RowDecoration.styleAt called it for every grapheme of every highlighted row: the 50k-line file's render went from 0.11 ms to 13 ms. Pardes.bodyChrome now keeps the theme's chrome, worked out again only when the theme differs; recolorSyntax asks for it once a decorated row, and a plain row (nearly every row of a file) never asks. ReleaseFast, medium fixture, median us, before -> after (main): render 13150 -> 76 (111), key-down 14658 -> 79 (110), wheel 13589 -> 76 (109), open 14891 -> 2095 (2055), edit-char 16703 -> 3006 (1251; the rest of that gap is editing and tree-sitter, not this). Post.animating asked for frames whenever the window had focus and any pass was ready, so a still pass kept the GUI drawing at the display's rate (Bloom: 49% of a core idle, in a hidden test window). A pass now says whether it moves on its own: the CRT (its hum and dither) and a Shadertoy file whose source reads iTime, iFrame or iDate (shader_build.readsTime; the flag rides the wire's post message); Bloom, Vignette and Grain are still. Bloom idle: 49% -> 1.2%, as with no pass. zig build perf-gate: the 50k-line file's gestures, each's fastest sample within 3x of the recorded baseline's (test/perf-baseline-- .json, recorded from this build), run with every unit-test. On the regressed code it fails at 180x for render.

Shader files compile again on save; an attached GUI runs the session's post chain

2026-10-01T03:12:16Z

shader_build.zig takes the Shadertoy compile out of the GUI's Post: the process that holds the core compiles each chain file behind the prefix on a thread, watches its directory (file_watch's new shader slots), and on a change reads and hashes each file, compiling only one whose bytes moved. A failed compile keeps the last good SPIR-V and is said once; the same bytes are never compiled or reported twice. A file is read with std, not fs.zig's readFile, whose turn hand-off a worker thread does not hold. A detached session compiles for its frontends and sends them the chain (wire post: each pass's scene and level or the file's SPIR-V, and ShaderAnimation) on attach and on every change, so an attached GUI runs the same passes, levels and animation as a local one while still reading no disk and running no program. The attached GUI describes its frames to the chain from the session's chrome and redraws an animating chain on its own.

G13: Parallax, lapis's dots drift with the text at a quarter of its speed

2026-10-01T03:12:16Z

Parallax on|off (off, a pixel shell's; Chrome.fx bit 3). A body region carries its first line (Region.line, a file's scroll or a terminal's grid offset; the wire's region record grows a u32). The GUI offsets each body's page dots by a quarter of its line in rows, and of G6's glide offset while one runs, so the pattern drifts with the text and settles with it; the cell shader reads it from the instance's serial slot, whose per-cell dissolve noise G7 left unused (the dead noise code goes). Tests: a scrolled body tells its line; the shift handed to the shader is a quarter of it within the dots' period. Measured in a capture: four lines move the dots 13 px (140 px / 4 mod 22). Gates as before, goldens byte-identical. Feel review: .scratch/render/parallax/.

G12: Occlusion, pane bodies darkening faintly toward their edges

2026-10-01T03:12:16Z

Occlusion on|off (off, a pixel shell's; Chrome.fx bit 2 — the glow bits field is now `fx`): four soft strips cast from just outside each pane body inward, clipped to the body and round a cursor, black pre-warped to linear light, 2% at most (§9.1) and under the lift's contrast ceiling, in the pane's own group. Tests: the shade stays inside the body, off the cursor, at most 2%. Gates as G11. Feel review: .scratch/render/occlusion/ (with an x40 diff).

G11: HoverGlow, a soft underline of light under a look-hover's word

2026-10-01T03:12:16Z

HoverGlow on|off (off, a pixel shell's; Chrome.glows bit 1, SelectionGlow bit 0 now that there are two): under the word a look-hover would open (its cells in the affordance's tint) a strip three logical pixels tall along its foot, blurred by one, in the theme's accent, at most 22% and under the text's contrast floor, fading in over 80 ms; kept to the bodies and split round a cursor. glowBlocks serves G9 and G11. The strip is cast from a row away so addSoft's caster cut-out misses it. Tests: the glow comes up by 90 ms and never falls on the cursor's cell. Gates as G10 (a loaded machine shifted the GUI goldens a scene once; a rerun matched 01-08). Feel review: .scratch/render/hover/.

G9: SelectionGlow, a soft halo round the body's selection

2026-10-01T03:12:16Z

SelectionGlow on|off (off; a pixel shell's, Chrome.selection_glow): each block of selected rows in a pane body casts Lift's soft kind in the selection's own colour, the block its caster (never touched) and a cursor beside it joined to the caster; clipped to the bodies (never a tag or a grip); at most 22% (§8.2), less where the text round it would drop below min(its contrast, 4.5); fading in over 100 ms with an ease-out, on the core's continuous path (shell_continuous); none while panes move. Blocks come from the cells in the theme's selection colour (documented). Tests: the halo's colour, its clip to the body, nothing at its first frame and up to its cap after 100 ms, fading done. Gates as G8. Feel review: .scratch/render/selection/.

G5: lapis, 0x4200.cafe's manuscript, as a theme with its ornament

2026-10-01T03:12:16Z

A native theme `lapis` (src/themes/lapis.zig) from web/theme/lapis.css: a lapis-deep page, lapis tags with gold names, vellum text, vermilion rubrics, gold rules and a vermilion tag rule, gold selection in lapis ink. Its ornament is the theme's new `decor` (colors.Decor), drawn by a pixel shell inside the chrome it already has (decision 1), all of it off every focus indicator: - page_dots: the site's gold dot grid (#e8c46a22, 22 px), drawn by the cell shader on page-coloured cells alone (flag 0x10000000), so it lies under the text and never under a selection, a tag or the cursor; fixed to the window, a page the panes lie on. - rail_checker: the dither frame's gold and lapis checker in the scroll track (a decor kind, flag 0x08000000), anchored to its rail; the thumb stays solid gold. - tag plaques (tag_border, tag_shadow, tag_stripe): every tag a raised plaque inside its own band, the site's trail: a 2px gold frame and a hard 5px vermilion shadow down and right, both within the band's rows and columns (down, what the slack under the text leaves), so no shadow reaches a body, a grip or the next pane. The focused pane's plaque is the code window's title bar, gold and lapis stripes of 2px, its words on plates of the focused ground; unfocused ones are plain; column and workspace tags take the object-label language (1px frame, 2px shadow toward the page). Drawn as decor under the cells (a group's under range), with blank tag cells see-through and the cells blended premultiplied (pipeline_over) on such frames; opaque windows only. - title_shadow: the titles' vermilion offset shadow under a file name's letters, sampled in the cell shader inside the letters' own cells (flag 0x08000000), none on a cursor. Chrome carries the decor (decor_*, name_ink, active_name_ink); a theme file folds a nested decor literal field by field. Left out, with why, in docs/effects.md: the fonts, the ornaments, a decor crossfade, and in the tty anything but the colours (a tag row has no spare cell for a shadow). An empty column is the page. The effect id is masked to 27 bits (ui.vert/ui.frag) for the fifth flag. Tests: the cell flags land only on page ground and file-name cells, never a cursor, nothing without decor; lapis's plaques stay inside their tag's band, clear of every grip, only the focused one striped; its checker is in the track; no other theme draws any; the separator and focus tests cover lapis. Goldens: theme and themesel (the ring gains lapis after acme). Gates as G4. Feel review: .scratch/render/lapis/ (lapis.png, lapis-2x.png, tags-focused-vs-unfocused-2x.png, a PanelSlide at 60 fps and a quarter).
