* Refactor panes and filesystem; replace FUSE with 9PGabriel Schneider2026-09-07
| | | | | | Consolidate pane, layout, memory and host code. Serve 9P by default over Unix sockets, with runtime mounts and optional TCP/QUIC transports. Remove FUSE and obsolete proof-of-concept examples. Fix highlighting and terminal-history performance, expand differential and stress-test infrastructure, sort navigation results while preserving the next occurrence, add syntax-colored Braille minimaps, remove SPC-k, and document 9P interaction as a repository skill.
* hosts: the effects three shells kept a copy of become one, and the mac's own ↵Gabriel Schneider2026-09-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bugs go with them Nine read-only scouts compared every host-side concern across `src/macos.zig`, `src/tty/tty.zig`, `src/gui/gui.zig` and `src/detached/server.zig`. What they found was not a style problem: each duplicated body had drifted, and in every case the drift WAS a bug the users of that shell could see. So the fixes and the deduplication are the same change. **One PATH, adopted before the first fork.** LaunchServices hands a bundle launchd's environment, whose `PATH` is `/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin`. Every pty shell, `|` filter and language server the app forked inherited it, so `yazi` in `/opt/homebrew/bin` was absent from a Dock launch and present in the identical binary run from a terminal — the "it worked briefly" window was simply the sessions started from a shell. `shell_bin.adoptSystemPath` composes `/etc/paths` then `/etc/paths.d/*` in the order `path_helper` reads them, deduplicating on first occurrence, and runs once at startup in all four native hosts. It APPENDS: an entry already present keeps its position, so running it over a real session cannot demote a mise shim behind `/usr/bin` and silently change which `node` runs. A `PATH` that was configured is left byte-for-byte alone; only one nobody configured is repaired. `prepareForFork` folds that adoption together with the prompt-rc staging and the `BASH_SILENCE_DEPRECATION_WARNING` setenv the five hand-copied prefork sites had between them — `server.zig` had none of it, which is why every detached pane opened with Apple's zsh banner. **The LSP protocol client never worked on macOS.** It opened its control socket with `libc.SOCK.CLOEXEC`; Zig defines that constant for Linux and Darwin answers `socketpair` with `EPROTONOSUPPORT`, so the call failed before any fork, `ensure` returned `error.NoServer`, and every row in the spec table — rust-analyzer, clangd, gopls — was unreachable in every macOS build. The in-process ZLS backend kept answering, which is what made it read as "only Zig is supported". It is a plain socket plus `fcntl(FD_CLOEXEC)` now, the route `fuse.zig:943` and `nested.zig:95` already took for the same reason. The snapshot suite that covered this path had never run natively on a Mac: the harness targets defaulted to x86_64-linux. **One LSP host worker.** `src/lsp_host.zig` is the snapshot, the worker body and the job lifetime that `tty.zig` and `gui.zig` carried verbatim — `gui.zig` said so in a comment — and that `macos.zig` did not carry at all: `lsp` and `pipe` were absent from its `Host.VTable`, so the core answered its own empty answer, `SPC l i` rendered a blank panel and a `|` filter silently did nothing. All three shells share the module, and the AppKit host implements both effects. Its status sink is now REGISTERED as well as defined, so unsolicited server news reaches the message row instead of nowhere. **The animation clock measures time.** `pardes_animation_tick` advanced one scene frame per callback and published `frame_count / 60`, so scene time was a count of callbacks rather than elapsed seconds — and `AppDelegate` re-armed `asyncAfter(.now() + 0.016)` only after the previous frame's work had finished, making the true period 16 ms plus all of it. Motion ran at about three quarters of wall clock and unevenly. The tick now spends measured monotonic time in whole `frame_ns` steps and banks the remainder, so a late callback advances two frames instead of stretching one; `spendTickTime` is that arithmetic as a pure function with its own tests and no display attached. On macOS 14+ the animating run is one `CADisplayLink` phase-locked to vsync rather than a chain rebuilt after every frame; macOS 13 keeps the old chain. **Three more single definitions.** `panel_animation.paintOrder` is the moving-then-opening-then-closing composite order as a rule the core applies once in `Pardes.render` — `macos.zig` was re-sorting an already-sorted list. `selection_pipe.Tasks` is the bounded in-flight pipe table `tty.zig` and `gui.zig` each declared. `boxContains` was a fourth copy of the half-open cell test and is now an alias of `Box.contains`. **A filtered terminal stops asking libm per cell.** `Filter`'s legibility stage called `RGB.contrast` for every painted cell, and that ends in `std.math.pow` up to six times, re-deriving a ratio against a background that had not moved; the existing memo cache covered the palette reduction beside it and never this. The indexed path's input is a `u8`, so all 256 answers are enumerated once per pass — after the default roles are fixed, before the first cell is read — and what a cell names becomes an array index. Only truecolour still reduces. ReleaseFast, 190x56, Tracy: recolour 3.09 ms -> 0.130 ms, frame 3.37 ms -> 0.299 ms. The comptime luminance table is pinned to `RGB.luminance` and `RGB.contrast` by exact-equality test over every channel value and all 65 536 palette pairs, because the decision is a threshold comparison where one ULP is a different colour. A `filterInit` Tracy zone records the part that is still per-pass: 2.9 us warm against a 117 us pass, which is the measurement that says not to cache it across frames. Released as 0.0.2. `build.zig.zon` carries the version into `pardes --version` and into the `Changelog` pane through `@embedFile`, so the entries above open a `## 0.0.2` section and `## 0.0.1` closes with the tagline work of the parent commit. Two bugs here were mine, caught by review rather than by me: a double free in the macOS pipe drain arm (`Msg.free` already owns the response) that segfaulted the app on the first `|`, and a proposed `getRowAndCell` optimisation that targeted 2 of 43 draw samples while the contrast math beside it took 12 — and would not have compiled. The profile that justified it was a Debug build, which `build.zig:1160` already documents as ~5x slower than release. Native and -Dplatform=macos suites: 0 failures. All targets build with Tracy on and off; the shipped release binary contains no `___tracy_emit_zone_begin`. App reinstalled, signature verified, dmg regenerated, launched with 0 crash reports; installed binaries verified byte-identical to a fresh build.
* An edited row keeps its colours, four copies of forkShell become one, and ↵Gabriel Schneider2026-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Esc stops recentring ## A terminal row's ANSI colours survive being edited The loudest colour bug this editor had: one keystroke anywhere in a coloured shell row turned EVERY column of it grey. `EditAnchors` anchored a buffer line only when it was BYTE-IDENTICAL to the shell row it stood over, so a single differing byte dropped the whole row's colour projection. Worst shape is invisible: append past the pane's right edge, where the text is clipped, and the row looks the same and only its colour goes. Anchoring is byte-level now. An edit leaves the row's own bytes at both ends, and being the same bytes they keep the same colours; only what was typed has no cell under it, so only that takes none. Live, on real `fastfetch`: a 32-column blue run split into 6 + 26 around one typed character. Three defects underneath it, all found by machinery rather than by reading: * A JOIN removes a buffer line while the buffer's covered span grows, so `lines == covered` and both aligned guesses — Nth line over the Nth covered row, and the same counted from the bottom — resolved to the SAME wrong row. Every untouched row below a join went plain. Anchoring is now a streaming monotone matching: one shell-row cursor that only ever moves forward, advanced once per buffer line, linear in the buffer where the version before it was quadratic. * An EMPTY line is not evidence. Splitting a row makes one, it equals every blank row in the span, and left free to look ahead it claimed the blank row below the last output and took every coloured row in between out of reach of the lines that owned them. * Reflow under a scrolled viewport. `PageList.getTopLeft(.viewport)` returns the viewport pin verbatim, x and all, while `PageList.pin` forces x to 0 — so after a reflow remapped a tracked pin into the middle of a row, the text pass dumped row 0 from that column while the colour pass paired the fragment with the row's FIRST cells. Row 0 wore its left half's colours until the pane snapped back to live output. `bodyText` dumps from column zero now, which is also what ghostty's own renderer draws. Also here: DECSCNM (reverse video) was silently dropped whenever `tty_filter` was off, because the raw path resolved a `.none` colour by role and never consulted the mode. The test that found the first two is the one worth keeping: random editing against an ABSOLUTE oracle — every row's own text names the colour it must have — because the differential oracle it replaced was blind by construction. It skipped the edited row, which is the row the user is complaining about. ## Esc returns to a pane without moving its view Esc in body normal mode runs `Last`, "the pane you were in before this one", and that went through `focusPaneLine`, which recentred a file on the target line unconditionally. So returning to a buffer repainted the whole screen to show a line that was already on it. `focusPaneLine` takes a landing now: `.center` for the three callers going somewhere you have not been (a look target, a path a pane already holds, `@pN:LINE:COL`), `.keep` for Esc. `.keep` leaves the view alone and lets `ensureCursorVisible` — which already existed and already scrolls by the minimum into the `scroll_off` band — be the only thing that may move anything. Not `line = 0`, which `focusPaneLine` already understands as "focus and touch nothing": a background pane's view can move while you are away, because the wheel scrolls the pane under the POINTER and a resize reveals no cursor, so the recorded cursor plus a minimal nudge is what actually gets you back. Ctrl-o and Ctrl-i keep centring, and the asymmetry is structural rather than arbitrary: `Last` only ever CROSSES panes, so the pane it lands on already holds the view you left it with, while `jumpBy` can land in the SAME pane, where a long in-file jump would arrive on the very top or bottom row with `scroll_off` lines of context on one side. Helix splits the same pair the same way — its jumplist centres, its buffer switch does not. One deliberate consequence: under `.keep` a PDF's page is not restored AT ALL, because a page reveal IS that pane's view and a reveal of the page you are already on still snaps `document_scroll_y` to that page's start, discarding where you had read to. When something moved the pane while you were away — the wheel again — Esc leaves it where the wheel left it, and Ctrl-o is how you reach the recorded page. ## host_io.zig: the machine-local half of a host, once `host.zig` is the seam. The part of the answer that is identical on every host with an operating system under it — fork a pane's shell, put bytes on a disk — was written FOUR times: in tty.zig, gui.zig, macos.zig and detached/server.zig. What those copies had in common says what they were for: all four were missing FD_CLOEXEC on the pty master, so in every shell pardes has shipped, a program in one pane could read another pane's terminal. One copy now, and the wire got smaller for it: `ServerMsg.spawn` is gone. A frontend never asked the server to fork anything — the server has an operating system under it and forks through `host_io` like every other host — and `decodeClient` lost the scratch buffer that message needed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | board cap on one screen ## The wire is the effect stream, not a new protocol `pardes --detach` leaves a core running with no terminal; `pardes --attach` is a frontend that owns a terminal and a socket and nothing else. N frontends on one core all look at the same screen — `screen -x`, not N sessions. The codec (`src/detached/wire.zig`) carries exactly one `Event` or one `Host.VTable` call per message. That is not a coincidence and it is why there is no third vocabulary to keep in step: the core's IO seam was already a struct of function pointers with plain-data arguments, so a socket is a legal implementation of it. `nested.zig`'s socket could not be reused — it carries a builtin command line, and a command line cannot carry a frame. ARCHITECTURE-NEUTRAL on purpose, not as decoration. The frontend on the far end may be riscv32-freestanding on the ESP32-P4 while the core is x86_64 Linux, so every field is an explicit little-endian fixed width and no message is a blit of a native struct. A protocol that only works between two builds of the same compiler would have thrown away the one frontend that motivated it. ## The board comes in; its toolchain stays out `src/p4.zig` becomes `src/esp32p4.zig`, and the pardes half of `../05-zig-p4` — the vaxis-over- serial runner, the UART editor terminal, the keystroke rescue ring, the on-die test suite — moves into `src/esp32p4/`. `build.zig.zon` gains `.zig_p4 = .{ .path = "../05-zig-p4" }`, so `zig build -Dplatform=esp32p4 -Desp32p4-firmware` builds, flashes, monitors and self-tests the board from this repo's `build.zig`. The DIVISION is the point. What moved is what only pardes wants: the runner that drives a pardes core over a serial line. What stayed is everything a second project would also want — the HAL, the register/radio/oracle layers, the linker script, `_start`. `zig_p4` declares no dependencies of its own and its `build()` early-returns when it is not the root package, so this costs the package graph exactly zero packages and the editor's own builds nothing at all. ## limits.zig: nine forgettable places become one budget Nine `platform == .esp32p4` capacity tests lived in nine files. They were never nine decisions — they are ONE decision, how much memory this build may spend, taken nine times where no reader could see the total. `src/limits.zig` puts the whole budget on one screen with every cap named against what it is measured against, derived from two booleans. The payoff is testability on a machine that is not the board: the caps are ordinary comptime values, so a host build can be compiled against the board's numbers and the parking, eviction and clamping paths a 240 KiB core takes get exercised by the normal test suite instead of only over a UART. ## A bare `zig build` `zig build` with no arguments now builds the tty and GUI binaries and installs them into `~/.local/bin`, and says so once on stdout with the flag that overrides it. The old default built one binary into `zig-out` — a path nothing on a `PATH` ever looks at, which made "build it" and "use it" two different commands for no reason.
* A fourth platform: pardes as ESP32-P4 firmware, bytes in and bytes outGabriel Schneider2026-08-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | `-Dplatform=p4 -Dtarget=riscv32-freestanding` emits a single freestanding OBJECT exporting a seven-function C ABI, not an executable. The board's toolchain (../05-zig-p4) owns `_start`, the linker script and the UART driver and links this in. The seam is bytes rather than types, so neither side can accidentally depend on the other's internals, and a signature that drifts fails at link time. The serial line is the whole of the I/O. `src/p4.zig` drives vaxis unchanged over it: the renderer is a byte writer and `queryTerminalSend` is a byte writer, so the terminal emulator on the host answers the capability handshake and the firmware sees a real terminal. Measured going out over the wire on attach: alt screen, in-band resize, cursor report, kitty keyboard, kitty graphics, DA1. THREE WORDS EXIST ONLY HERE. `src/board_memory.zig` implements `Peek`, `Poke` and `Hexdump`, gated on `builtin.os.tag == .freestanding and !isWasm()` - derived from the TARGET, because they are a property of running with no OS under you rather than a product option, and because wasm is freestanding too and is exactly what must be excluded: in a browser an address is an offset into the linear memory this editor's own heap lives in. Every access goes through `*allowzero volatile`: a peripheral register is not memory, and address 0 is an ordinary unmapped address on this bus. One 4 KiB cap per command, set by the console rather than the memory - an unbounded dump would wedge the only console the board has for eleven hours. Measured on ESP32-P4 rev v1.3 silicon, driven from a host terminal: Peek 0x501101a4 0x0e63ce71, then 0xaeaa6919 on a second read - the RNG register, so the volatile loads are not folded Poke 0x5011002c 0xdeadbeef LP_STORE0; a later Peek returned 0xdeadbeef Hexdump 0x5011002c 32 16 bytes a row, hex columns and an ASCII gutter Peek 0x50110001 `peek: MisalignedAddress` on the message row That last line is the one that matters. A misaligned 32-bit access traps, and a trap in firmware is a watchdog reset that takes the session with it, so the check that turns it into a message is the reason the file is hand-written rather than a generic reader. BARE METAL BOOTS AN EMPTY OUTPUT BUFFER. Every other boot layout in `init` makes a shell, and on this platform that is not a preference but an impossibility: nothing to fork, no pty to give a terminal pane. Booting one anyway produced precisely what that describes - a pane whose tag ends in `Filter`, no gutter, no buffer, and every keystroke vanishing into the Fallback's silent pty. An output buffer is also what the platform's own words want, since Peek, Poke and Hexdump each fill one. Sized for the board rather than for a desktop: * `allocators.zig` gains a p4 tier that is ALL fallback - every capacity is zero, so each arena spills immediately to the 384 KiB heap the firmware hands over, and no megabyte-shaped static reservation lands in `.bss`. * `source_manifest.zig`'s allowlist is EMPTY on p4. The table is ~0.95 MiB of rodata against a 1.5 MiB flash partition; the firmware's filesystem is the serial host's, through the Host vtable. * The grid is clamped and the clamp is measured, not guessed: every cell is paid for four times (vaxis Screen + InternalScreen, pardes Surface + previous_cells), so 40x12 fits and 80x24 exhausts the heap during `Pardes.init`. * `Vaxis.resize` deinits both screens before allocating replacements, so a failed resize leaves vaxis rendering nothing. The p4 shell keeps the previous geometry on failure instead of leaving a half-applied one. Also here: `output_pane_integration_test.zig` had an exhaustive switch over `Platform` that adding `.p4` left unhandled, which broke `zig build unit-test` outright - the native test binary is the one consumer no platform build compiles. 346 tests pass again.

* clipboard, n/N and the tty prompt: three things that were half-wiredGabriel Schneider2026-08-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Three changes that all turned out to be the same shape -- a feature that worked in one direction, or for one pane kind, and quietly did not in the others. CLIPBOARD. Every register write emitted set_clipboard, so deleting one character threw away whatever the desktop was holding; multi-cursor yank took the join's early return and emitted nothing at all, so the same key reached the clipboard on one cursor and not on two. Nothing could READ the clipboard: the SDL shell had no SDL_GetClipboardText anywhere in it, and the tty shell never asked for OSC 52, so `p` from another application was dead in both. Now it is helix's split. y/d/c/p/P/R and the acme chords are the DEFAULT REGISTER and nothing else; the system clipboard is five words on helix's own letters -- SPC y, SPC Y, SPC p, SPC P, SPC R -- spelled as builtins so they land in Help and are executable like every other verb. The one exception is the tag `y` chord, which still mirrors out because a tag is always insert, so SPC cannot be pressed there, and copying the path out is the whole point of the chord. Reading is a new read_clipboard effect answered by an ordinary Event.paste, so the round trip is honest about being one: SDL and NSPasteboard answer inside the same drain, the browser answers a promise, and a terminal answers over OSC 52 or -- far more often -- refuses. A refused read is a paste that does not happen, and the request dies at the next keystroke rather than landing minutes late in whatever pane is focused by then. The tty shell also enables BRACKETED PASTE now and coalesces paste_start..paste_end into one event. Before this a paste arrived as a flood of individual key presses: plausible in insert mode, and in normal mode every pasted character ran as a command. n/N. They stepped the armed results buffer and immediately Looked each row, so you could not walk past a hit without opening it. They are a MOTION now: select the next look-able text, open nothing, and let Enter decide. What they step is the largest whitespace-delimited run look.resolve can act on (look.lookableSpan, wrapper punctuation peeled), over a RING of panes -- every pane that has performed a look, most recent first, then the output buffers that have not, newest first, and only if both are empty the pane in front of you. N is the exact inverse of n, computed rather than remembered: both directions ask the same question about the same spans and compare against the column the walk parks on, so x presses one way and x back land exactly where you started, pane boundaries and the ring's seam included. A ring rather than a list with two ends because a shell's cursor sits at the prompt, below everything it has printed, so a walk that could not come round would have nowhere to go on the very first press -- which is the case n/N were written for. One motion everywhere, no pane-kind or buffer-kind special case. The only thing a buffer may change is the GRAIN of what a step selects, and it does it with one flag rather than a branch: output_pane.Traits.commands (renamed from `executes`, which named one reader's behaviour rather than the fact) makes a row select WHOLE, because a ThemeSel line is a word to run and has no path inside it to pick out. `]d`/`[d` are not n/N -- they are helix's diagnostic motions, their job is to ARRIVE, and they still reach searchStep. THE TTY PROMPT. Leaving raw tty blanked the prompt row, and the command you had typed at that prompt shares the row, so it went too -- a shell out of tty read as output only. OSC 133 marks the row CELL by cell, so the two are separable: config.tty_blank = .prompt cuts the prompt's own columns and leaves the command, left-hugged at column 0 in line with the output under it rather than in a bay of blanks. .prompt_and_input is the old behaviour, kept. Because the row is now something you can put a cursor in, enterTty adds the hidden prompt width back before asking ghostty to walk the shell's own cursor to it -- the modal column on a cut row is short by exactly that much. Verified: unit-test 186/186 (nine new), snap 87/87 (new ttyprompt.snap), hxdiff 481 and hxparity 561 with 0 mismatches, tty and gui both build. And against the real binaries rather than the harness: in a pty, SPC y emits OSC 52 carrying exactly the selection while plain y emits nothing, SPC p issues the read and pastes the reply, and a bracketed paste of "dd..." inserts text instead of deleting two lines. In a real SDL window, SPC y then SPC p round trips through the system clipboard while the default register holds different text. Setting tty_blank back to .prompt_and_input reproduces all 86 old goldens byte for byte.
* terminal: memoize the motion surface instead of dumping the scrollback per keyGabriel Schneider2026-08-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Every keystroke in a shell pane rebuilt the motion surface from scratch: shellRows dumped ghostty's WHOLE history+active grid, split it, blanked the prompt rows and handed back slices into the scratch arena, which the next update threw away. A pane sitting on a multi-megabyte agent transcript paid an O(scrollback) dump per press of `j`, and paid it once or twice per key, since flatSurface then rebuilt the same rows joined by '\n' beside it. The dump is now memoized against the pane it was built for (term_pane.RowsCache on Pardes.shell_rows), gpa-owned rather than scratch-arena because the whole point is to outlive the update that built it. One entry, not a table: the surface is built for the pane the cursor is in, and a second pane asking would only double a multi-megabyte buffer for a slot it is about to lose again. A pane that is not the live one is answered from the arena as before. The lifetime rule is the part that would have rotted silently, so it is one rule and it is written down: `rows` is handed out to callers, so everything that notices the entry has gone bad — output arrived, the grid reflowed, the pane died, another pane wants the slot — only marks it `stale`, and the buffers are freed in exactly two places, `sweep` at the TOP of an update before any handler can be holding them, and `reset` when the editor goes away. Nothing frees mid-update. dropPane clears the pointer immediately though: a freed pane's address comes back from the allocator as a different pane, and an entry still naming it would answer for the wrong grid. Two things fall out of having the join already: - flatSurface returns the memo's `text` verbatim when the lines it was handed are the cached rows untouched, instead of rebuilding the join. - paneCursorLines returns `rows` directly when there is no edit buffer, where it used to copy the array one slice at a time to produce exactly what it was given. One bug on the way past, in the same function: an EMPTY edit buffer writes one line but modal.lineCount("") is 0, so `ls` was sized one short of what the loop writes — the same floor the paste site needs. Killing a whole line (`A<C-u>`, `d%`) on a buffer covering the last row made that a length of zero. And test/perf.zig grows the axis that would have caught this: a terminal scoreboard beside the file one, three scrollback fixtures (64 KiB, 1 MiB, 8 MiB — half the ceiling) against render / output / resize-rows / resize-cols / key-down / edit-char, sharing the existing text and JSON reports and the --base comparison. resize-cols and resize-rows are both there because a COLUMN change reflows every page in the list and a row change does not. Measured on that table: key-down is 142 / 630 / 636 us across the three fixtures — flat from 1 MiB to 8 MiB, which is the dump being gone, and render flat at ~110 us throughout. What remains of key-down's step at 1 MiB is the linear scan indexOf refuses to index for a terminal; that is now a ponytail waiver naming its own price (615 us against 140 us) and the threading through paneOff/panePos/paneLineStart it would cost, to be done the day 0.6 ms shows up next to something anybody can feel.

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.
