`lib/kernel/src/toolchain.dart` is a `ChangeNotifier`, so it pulls in `package:flutter/foundation.dart`. `GitClient` and `PqlClient` imported it for the resolved binary paths, which leaked Flutter through the `package:clide/clide.dart` barrel — breaking `dart test` on every core subsystem suite (`ci/test_core.sh`), since pure Dart can't compile Flutter packages. Split the Flutter-free pieces into `toolchain_paths.dart`: `ResolvedPaths`, `resolveToolchainPaths`, and a new read-only `ToolchainView` interface with a `ToolchainView.resolved()` const factory. `Toolchain` now implements `ToolchainView`; the clients depend on the interface. Core test setups that built a `Toolchain` just to call `applyResolved` switch to the factory. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
clide
An IDE for Claude Code CLI. Native rendering, terminal-first interaction, pql-powered queries, canvas and graph surfaces. Linux and macOS.
Architecture
Single Flutter package at the repo root. The app hosts everything in-process: IPC server, subsystem handlers (pane, files, editor, git, pql), and the extension framework. tmux owns Claude session persistence.
lib/— all Dart code. Kernel services (theme, i18n, settings, panels, commands, focus), UI widgets, built-in extensions, and the extension contract.ptyc/— small C helper. Spawns a PTY + child and hands the master fd back overSCM_RIGHTS. Every pane (shell, tmux, claude, LSP, debug adapter) goes through it.- pql — external supporter tool. Clide wraps it for every query surface; never re-implements it.
Claude drives the UI through a clide CLI surface (Bash, not MCP). Every CLI subcommand has a UI affordance and every UI action has a CLI equivalent.
Built-in extensions
canvas, claude, claude_control, decisions, diff, editor, extensions_ui, files, git, graph, grammars_core, ipc_status, keybindings_ui, markdown, pql, problems, settings_ui, terminal, theme_picker, tickets, todos, welcome.
Building
Requires Flutter (stable channel) on the host. One-time setup:
make hooks && flutter pub get
Then:
make run # launch the desktop app
make test # fast suite: analyze + format + unit + widget + golden
make test-core # core subsystem tests (IPC, PTY, git, pane registry)
make test-integration # real app boot integration tests
make build-linux # flutter build linux
make build-macos # flutter build macos
make ptyc-build # build the ptyc PTY-spawn helper
make push-check # pre-push gate: decisions + core + fast tests
Status
Pre-v2.0 (2.0.0-dev). Interaction model and panel system landed. The Python Textual v1.2.0 predecessor is archived under legacy/.
Design doc: docs/initial-plan.md. Architectural decisions: decisions/.
