jpmschweitzerandClaude 0412a2284a scaffold ptyc — C PTY-spawn helper (libc only)
One-shot helper that opens a PTY, forks a child, execvp's the given
argv with the slave as stdin/stdout/stderr, and hands the master fd
back to the caller over a unix socket via SCM_RIGHTS. Wire contract
is stdin JSON → stdout JSON + fd transfer per D-005; socket fd
defaults to 3 with PTYC_SOCK_FD override for language runtimes whose
subprocess machinery shuffles the low fd numbers.

Minimal JSON parser (no deps) scoped to the exact accepted shape.
Exec-failure pipe (CLOEXEC) reports child-side errors back without
zombies. Window size applied via TIOCSWINSZ before fork; child
becomes session leader + makes the slave its controlling TTY.

Root Makefile PTYX_PRESENT typo fixed → PTYC_PRESENT, and a
ptyc-test target added alongside ptyc-build / ptyc-clean. Eight
smoke tests pass (happy path, env replacement, cwd, window size,
bad argv, type errors, exec failure, unknown keys).

clide

A Flutter desktop IDE for Claude Code. Markdown-first content, pql-powered queries, canvas and graph surfaces, a Go sidecar handling PTYs / subprocesses / git / pql. Claude drives the UI through a clide CLI.

Currently pre-v2.0, scaffolding. The north-star design lives in docs/initial-plan.md; architectural decisions are captured in docs/ADRs/. The Python Textual v1.2.0 implementation is archived under legacy/ for reference.

Three surfaces, one tool

  • app/ — Flutter desktop application (Linux / macOS; Windows is a stretch).
  • sidecar/ — Go sidecar/CLI, single binary with two modes: clide <subcommand> (one-shot for Claude) and clide --daemon (long-running sidecar for the app). Owns PTYs, subprocesses, file watchers, git, pql invocations.
  • pql — external supporter tool. clide wraps it for every query surface; never re-implements it.

Why the rebuild?

The Python Textual implementation (legacy/) proved the pane model but capped at terminal-only rendering. A short-lived experiment (claudian, April 2026) explored an Obsidian-plugin approach and was abandoned because Obsidian is Electron, and the user's history with terminal-in-Electron ruled that host out.

Flutter desktop resolves both constraints: native Skia rendering avoids Electron's failure modes, xterm.dart gives us a solid terminal surface, and the pane model can be rebuilt natively. The Obsidian ideas worth keeping (canvas, graph) fold in; everything else (vault concept, inline query tables, plugin ecosystem inheritance) doesn't.

Status

No build yet beyond the repo scaffold. Tier 0 acceptance: sidecar daemon runs, Flutter app connects, empty IDE shell appears with placeholders.
