clean-house sweep over governance/ (validate green, 0 broken refs before and after): - RULE-ANCHOR-DRIFT (37): rewrote inline cross-reference links left over from before the decisions/questions/rejected subdir split — flat naming (questions-architecture.md, questions-process.md, rejected.md) and bare same-dir paths that were actually cross-type — to canonical subdir-relative form with current slugs. pql resolved these by ID so they were never broken to the tooling, only to GitHub anchor navigation. - RULE-RECORD-SORT (1): reordered decisions/architecture.md D-records to strictly ascending (the D-1..D-6 block had been appended after D-41); pure block move, line count unchanged, content identical. - RULE-FILE-OVER-THRESHOLD: deferred (architecture.md 435 > 350; splitting would re-churn the anchors just fixed). - EOF/whitespace and Q↔D backlinks clean.

Editor tab, tree-sitter, icon set, theme hot-reload, kernel DB access.

Tooling-domain questions currently live here too. Split into

### Q-15: Editor tab — full LSP vs tree-sitter-only highlight
|
|
- **Status:** Open
|
|
- **Question:** Tier 2's editor tab: do we integrate a full LSP story (analyzer server + hovers + completions + diagnostics) or ship tree-sitter-only syntax highlighting and defer LSP to Tier 6?
|
|
- **Context:** Full LSP is a large subsystem; tree-sitter is a weekend. User is a heavy LSP user in other IDEs — missing it hurts. CLAUDE.md flags this as "decide during Tier 2."
|

### Q-16: `tree-sitter-dart` grammar maintenance
|
|
- **Status:** Open
|
|
- **Question:** `UserNobody14/tree-sitter-dart` is archived. `nielsenko/tree-sitter-dart` is the maintained fork. Do we pin `nielsenko/`, mirror it in-repo, or lean on the Dart analyzer's own semantic output and skip tree-sitter for Dart?
|
|
- **Context:** If tree-sitter is the Tier-2 answer ([Q-15](#q-15-editor-tab-full-lsp-vs-tree-sitter-only-highlight)), grammar sourcing matters.

|
### Q-17: Icon set growth
|
|
- **Status:** Open
|
|
- **Question:** Hand-drawn `CustomPainter` catalogue (total control, pixel-perfect on every theme, slow to grow) vs SVG + parser (faster to grow, one more dep, theming is harder)?
|
|
- **Context:** We rejected Nerd-font glyphs ([R-6](../rejected/process.md#r-6-nerd-font-glyph-icons)); something has to fill the gap.
|
|
- **Source:** 2026-04-21 planning.
|

|
|
### Q-18: Theme hot-reload in release builds
|
|
- **Status:** Open
|
|
- **Question:** The theme picker supports live-reloading a YAML during development. Does the same path stay open in release builds (user tweaks `~/.config/clide/themes/foo.yaml` and the app re-reads on focus) or is release-build theming restricted to built-in + settings-UI-installed themes?
|
|
- **Context:** Hot-reload is powerful for theme authoring but opens a file-watch + re-parse path in release code.
|
|
- **Source:** 2026-04-21 planning.
|
|
|
|
### Q-19: (withdrawn)
|
|
- **Status:** Resolved → n/a
|
|
- **Note:** Earlier floated as "ticket markdown mirror vs SQLite" — no longer a split question. Markdown mirror is tracked in [Q-22](architecture.md#q-22-ticket-persistence-strategy); SQLite is the current stopgap per [D-40](../decisions/process.md#d-40-superseded-python-stopgap-under-toolsscriptsplan).
|
|
|
|
### Q-20: Kernel DB service — namespaced SQL access?
|
|
- **Status:** Open
|
|
- **Question:** Do extensions get namespaced SQL access to `.clide/clide.db` (tables prefixed `ext_<id>_…`) or stay on the `kernel.settings` key/value facade? Admission-level question ([D-12](../decisions/architecture.md#d-12-kernel-admission-rule--mandatory-shared-singletons-only)).
|
|
- **Context:** Some extensions (tickets, canvas, graph) naturally want relational storage. K/V gets awkward fast.
