Esc ran Toggleterm, which hopped between the newest DOC and the newest
TERMINAL. That distinction never earned its keep. It made Esc unpredictable —
which of three panes you landed on depended on their kinds, not on where you
had been — and it could not alternate between two files at all, which is the
case you hit most. Editing two files, Esc did nothing.
The replacement already existed. Last (SPC j j) is "the pane you were in
before this one, whichever it was": it walks the jump stack for the newest
entry naming a different pane and restores its line and column. So Esc, and
Shift-Esc in tty, now run Last, and Toggleterm is deleted rather than renamed
— a third implementation of "go to the other pane" was the thing to avoid.
SPC w t goes with it; the w group is the four directional moves, and the jump
group already had SPC j j.
Held down, Esc alternates. Two files, a file and its shell, a file and a
+Search — all the same, because Last has no notion of kind to get wrong.
This depends on the swap in the same series: Last reads the stack backwards,
and until hopping stopped appending, the pane you came from could fall off it.
windownav.snap needed only its keys and prose changed — its golden did not
move at all, which is the useful evidence here: for the one scenario the old
builtin handled well, Last produces an identical focus sequence.
Coverage for what it did not handle is new: a unit test opens a second FILE by
looking its name and asserts Esc alternates between two panes of the SAME
kind, which is the case that used to be a no-op.
Docs follow: tutor.txt, docs/helix-keys.md, docs/design.typ, and the builtin
index goldens, which are now one row shorter.
75/75 snapshots, both unit suites, and the macOS ABI build all pass.

file:LINE:COL-ENDLINE:ENDCOL, with the two short forms people actually type
reading naturally: file:412:9-21 on one line, file:412-418 whole ones. Ends are
inclusive. A path feature, not a search feature — a ranged path typed in a tag
or middle-clicked out of a shell's output selects just the same; search is only
its first consumer.
The dash is the fussy part. `-` was already a file char, so a ranged word
survives click expansion whole, but a range needs a number on BOTH sides or
my-file:10, build-2 and 2026-07-30 would stop being paths. Table-driven test in
look.zig for exactly that.
Selecting goes through the cellRange/setPaneRange pair the multi-cursor work
left, and hxOff clamps both ends, so a stale range selects what still exists
rather than crashing or reaching past EOF — pinned with an 8:6-400:9 range in a
nine-line file.
Producers: / search, Grep, and five LSP sites through a new spanRow — goto,
references, rename tokens and both symbol lists were throwing away real
protocol ranges at path:line:col. Left alone deliberately: Find rows are bare
paths with nothing to span, a jump is a spot not a span, and the diagnostic and
format paths only ever have a point, where half a range would be worse than
none.
One knock-on worth knowing: n now leaves an EXPLICIT selection, so a topbar
execute chords it. grep.snap's no-match step was silently becoming
`Grep TARGET`; it runs from the leader path now, which never chords, and the
dedicated chord steps stayed where they were.

228 in the ring: 3 pardes ships plus all 214 helix runtime themes and all 11
zed variants across its three families. No exclusions.
inherits is what this cost. 76 themes need it, so the reader is two passes now,
and the merge is WHOLE-KEY rather than field-wise because helix merges the
theme body at depth 1 — the three *_transparent themes clear their parent's
background with an empty table, and a field-wise merge would leave it painted.
I had that wrong until I read helix-view/src/theme.rs.
At 214 files the generator meets themes that are SPARSE rather than broken, and
the old fatal-on-anything-missing would have rejected them. Every fallback is
helix's own rule: no background at all means wear the terminal's, so bg and fg
go null (13 themes, correctly); the twelve RGB fields that cannot be null fall
back to ghostty's default palette entries 7 and 0, which is exactly what a
pardes terminal already paints an unstyled ANSI index as. fatal is kept for
what genuinely cannot be read.
Three real bugs surfaced only at scale: #ccc shorthand doubles the nibble
(helix's rule, 58 colours), a quoted inline-table key silently dropped a
selection colour, and four themes name a cursor background EQUAL to the page
because they are about to reverse that cell — taking it painted an invisible
move box. 0 degenerate themes out of 225 now: no fg==bg, no syntax colour on
its own background, no invisible box.
Collisions get an unconditional rule rather than a clever one: a zed variant is
always <name>_zed, because both projects ship gruvbox, ayu and one, and a
conditional tag would move a name when the other source changes. A comptime
assert holds it.
Cost: no-op build 0.257 -> 0.276s, a pardes.zig change 46.8 -> 47.5s, binary
+0.98%. The generator does 217 sources in 54ms.
NextColor stays and is no longer a way to REACH a theme — but the browse got
better, not worse: the generated half sorts by name, so its neighbours are that
theme's own family. theme.golden's fourth click moved from ayu_dark to acid,
which sorting 225 names does; themesel gained a tail capture proving row 228
renders.

Each theme is a .zig file of pure data and nothing enumerates them by hand —
fold() walks the container's declarations, so a theme is a file and that is the
whole registration. Field by field rather than a wholesale coercion, which
makes a missing field a compile error that names it.
tools/gen_themes.zig reads helix .toml and zed .json out of vendor/themes and
emits one .zig each; build.zig reads that directory, so adding a theme is
dropping a file in. Output goes to the build cache rather than the tree, so zig
owns the freshness check and a deleted source cannot leave a stale theme
behind. Vendored, not read from the genizah: the build stays offline. A source
it cannot map is a hard error naming the file and the key, never a silently
black-on-black theme.
ThemeSel is the clever half. Traits gained an `executes` column, so n/N over
that buffer hands the whole line to Exec instead of the leading word to Look —
both arms the ordinary builtin, so a stepped row does exactly what the matching
mouse button on it would. Stepping the list previews each theme live. The trait
is a pane property, not an output-pane branch, so any pane whose lines are
commands can opt in.
Goldens: leader gains SPC t t; theme's fourth NextColor no longer wraps to
helix because the ring is fifteen long. New: themesel.

One container, not two: focus_hist (a stack of pane ids rebuilt every sync) is
now jumps[] + a current pointer, and the +Jumps buffer is a RENDERING of that
array — nothing copies it, nothing shadows it. prevFocus, Toggleterm, Look's
directory order, Back/Forward, Last and Jumplist all walk the one list.
A pane id is reused, so a location that only remembered an id would retarget
after a respawn: panes now carry a monotonic serial and an entry whose slot
holds a different serial is dead. trackJump compacts those out and fixes the
pointer in the same pass.
The push rule lives in ONE place and says: a location is worth remembering
when you cannot see it any more — a different pane, or more than a bodyful of
rows away in the same one. So hjkl never grows the list and 100G, a search hit
and a goto-definition do.
Ctrl-o/Ctrl-i walk it, SPC j j toggles the last two, SPC j l lists them.
Ctrl-i IS Tab on a legacy host, where the binding simply never fires and
Tab-executes is untouched; kitty reports them apart. SPC j o/i work anywhere.
Two goldens moved, both the SPC ? Help listing gaining four rows.

Their only special feature is now the keys they are assigned. `Look main.zig`
typed in a tag is the same look a right click is; config.look_cmd/exec_cmd
point the two buttons and Enter/Tab at them, so retargeting Enter to Grep is
one line. actOnSelection — a hand-written cascade with the builtin dispatch
nested inside it — is gone, and the `button` parameter it threaded through five
KEYBOARD call sites went with it.
New syntax, spelled once in config.zig: @`ls -la` names a command to run
rather than a file to open. Word expansion takes the quoted run whole, the way
acme does for its own </|/> words, so a click inside one does not hand Look the
fragment `ls`.
And it nests: @`Look .` unwraps, re-enters the dispatcher, and looks at the
directory. Guarded at depth 8, which is unreachable today (every re-entry
strips a word or a delimiter pair, so the string strictly shrinks) and exists
for a future syntax that does not shrink.
leader_path is now optional: a builtin may have no SPC path when its shortcut
is a key and a mouse button. New golden cmdword; the other 59 unmoved.

An output buffer was a file pane with a flag, and everything special about it
was re-derived from outside by asking the wrong question: the buffer NAME
("+Search", "+Help"), a parallel search_kind field, and f.output predicates
sprinkled through kind-agnostic code.
Now it carries its Origin — the Builtin, or the lsp.Kind for the five gotos
helix binds as motions rather than words — plus that command's argument, and
one Traits table answers every question the scattered code used to ask: what
it is called, whether n/N steps it, whether it is a doc for layout, whether
Esc dismisses it, whether it saves. The name is derived FROM the command
instead of being the thing that identifies it.
Adding a kind of output pane is adding a row. No golden moved.

Retargeting a key, a mouse chord or a spelling is now an edit to src/config.zig
and nothing else. Three parts in reading order: pardes's own bindings (where a
reader lands), the Look/Exec syntax, then the helix keymap under a banner
saying hxdiff/hxparity are differential suites against real helix, so a key
moved there is a divergence and not a tweak.
The bindings are data a comptime loop can walk, because the builtin index is
going to walk them.
Duplication this cut: is/isC/isA became one hit(key, chords) over ~132 call
sites, and a binding being a LIST collapses the letter-or-arrow chains;
swap_enter_tab is gone, replaced by look_key/exec_key that can point anywhere;
the four focus builtins' h/j/k/l lived hardcoded in two places and is now one
table.
No golden moved.

their own files
The core now lies FLAT at src/ and every subdirectory is one backend, so a
file being in no directory at all is what says it is core. Pane-kind bodies
leave pardes.zig for term_pane.zig / file_pane.zig / output_pane.zig, leaving
it the layout, the event/effect machine and the generic render loop.
Builtins are one struct each in builtins.zig, and the enum is folded out of
the file's own declaration list at comptime — a zig file IS a struct, so the
list of builtins and the builtins themselves are the same text. Adding one is
writing a struct. Key paths deliberately stay one table for the config pass.
Pure refactor: no golden moved.
