The collapsed activity / agent-run cards (ClideHolderCard) wrapped themselves in 3px vertical margin, while the prose ConversationCards use 14px bottom / 0 top. So a folded card floated ~17px below the previous card but hugged the next one at 3px — the uneven gap the earlier bordered-padding tweak didn't address. Give the holder the same bottom-14 / top-0 margin. The holder-card golden is regenerated for the taller frame. The copy-button holder test parks its hover and advances past the tooltip show-delay so the (exit-uncancellable) Future.delayed timer fires instead of leaking.

All notable changes to clide are documented in this file.
The format follows Keep a Changelog 1.1.0, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.
This changelog tracks the Flutter rebuild at the repo root. The Python
Textual implementation's changelog is preserved under
legacy/CHANGELOG.md.
Versions are tracked in pubspec.yaml under version:,
which is the single source of truth. Cutting a release means (a) moving
the entries below from ## [Unreleased] under a new dated version
heading, and (b) bumping pubspec.yaml version: in the same commit.
[Unreleased]
Added
- Permission-mode control beside the Claude composer. An icon-only,
per-mode-coloured button opens a menu of the safe modes (default ·
accept-edits · plan);
bypassshows disabled. The status-bar mode is now a passive colour-coded indicator — switching lives in the control andCtrl/Cmd+M. (T-275) - Clickable T/D/Q/R cross-refs in the Claude conversation. Bare ticket and
governance references (
T-281,D-77,Q-5,R-2) in rendered messages are now links that open the record in its context-pane reader — tickets forT-, decisions forD/Q/R. Refs inside code stay literal. (T-279) - A Zed-style application menu bar in the hat — File / View / Help
menus built from custom widgets (no native menu, D-7), populated from the
command registry with inline keybindings. Full keyboard nav (
Alt+mnemonic, arrows, Enter, Esc). Help → About shows version + bundled licenses.Ctrl+OandCtrl+Shift+Nare now real keybindings. (T-48) - The sidebar/dock filter boxes are now CLI-addressable (D-6 parity):
clide ui filter <address> <text>drives a pane's filter as typing would, andclide ui filter <address>reads it back. Addresses are box ids fromclide pane list(e.g.decisions.panel,files.tree). Routed through the MessageBus, so a click and the CLI behave identically. (T-270) - Click an inline image card to open it in a full-screen lightbox — zoom
(scroll/pinch), pan, double-click to reset,
Esc/backdrop to dismiss — since the cards are often too small to read.clide image show <path> --fullscreenopens straight into it. The lightbox is a reusableClideLightboxprimitive. (T-252) - A bottom output dock: toggle it from a status-bar widget (or
⌘J/Ctrl+J) to see logs (Output) and diagnostics (Problems) as tabs — filterable by source/level/text, auto-scrolling. The status widget doubles as a health badge (green✓clean,⚠/✕counts otherwise) and replaces the old app-status item; Problems moved here from the sidebar. (T-54, D-87) - External MCP clients (Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, …) can now drive clide: the
MCP server exposes the full
mcp__clide__*tool surface, generated from the command registry that already feeds the CLI + palette (D-86), with a per-command opt-out. The two/idetools remain stubs. (T-225) clide events --since <cursor> [--filter X]reads events after a cursor and returns them plus a next-cursor — the pull-based complement to thetail --eventsstream, made for agent poll loops. Reportsgap: truewhen the cursor has aged out of the in-memory ring (D-85). (T-223)- "Install 'clide' command in PATH" command (
clide.installCli) copies the bundled C client to~/.local/bin, VS Code style. On launch clide warns whenclideis missing from PATH or points at the GUI bundle instead of the CLI client. (T-212) clide ui open diff <path>reveals the diff in a split above the Claude conversation, scrolls to that file and highlights its header — the diff-panel arm ofui open. Workspace tabs other than Claude/editor now reveal alongside the conversation with a close affordance (T-233).- Image cards in the Claude conversation log:
clide image show <path> [--caption …]renders an image inline (PNG/JPG/JPEG/GIF/WebP/BMP), clide-owned and display-only (D-78). The path is resolved workspace-relative and must exist; the verb registers in the dispatcher so it shows up inclide capabilities. (T-249) clide capabilitieslists the live command surface as JSON (every verb with its subsystem + argument schema), reflected from the dispatcher so it never drifts. A new/clideskill points Claude at it for discovery. (T-248)- Toast notifications for operation feedback: non-modal cards slide in bottom-right, auto-dismiss (errors linger), stack, and are manually dismissable, with success/warning/error/info severities. Components raise them by publishing to the kernel MessageBus — git push/pull show the first ones. (T-50)
clide ui toast "message" [--severity …] [--duration MS]raises a toast in the live GUI from the CLI — so an agent or script can surface "done/failed" on your screen. The drive-half complement to the toast system. (T-245)- Claude pane folds runs of tool calls/results into a collapsible "activity
card" so prose isn't buried: collapsed by default with a live one-line ticker
- step count, click/Enter to expand. Claude prose, user messages, and failed results stay first-class; diffs and thinking stay visible at the default level. (T-230)
- Theme switcher in the status bar: a far-right control showing the current
theme that opens a popover to switch live — click or keyboard (arrows/Enter,
Esc to dismiss). The
theme.pickpalette command is unchanged. (T-234) - Catppuccin Mocha theme, plus a high-contrast
catppuccin-mocha-hcsibling, added to the bundled themes — switchable from the theme picker. Faithful to the official palette (D-69). (T-82) clide ui open <reader> <id|path>opens a doc in a GUI reader from the CLI —tickets/decisionsby id,markdownby path — so an agent can surface what it's looking at on your screen. The drive-half complement toclide status. (T-231)- Cycle Claude's permission mode from the primary pane: Ctrl/Cmd+M while the composer is focused, a clickable mode badge in the status line, or the "Claude: Cycle permission mode" palette command — steps default → accept-edits → plan (bypass stays behind the cockpit's confirm). (T-226)
clide status— a one-shot orientation snapshot for agents: workspace, git summary, active editor buffer + selection, viewed reader docs, the live panes the user sees, and the layout. Previously an unknown command (exit 3). (T-221)clide pane listnow reflects the live GUI tabs the user sees (Claude, Files, Editor, viewers) alongside PTY panes — each with a stable id, slot, title, and active/visible state — by snapshotting the kernel panel layout at request time. Restores the D-6 "agent sees what the user sees" half of parity. (T-219, D-83)- Click empty Claude-pane area to focus the composer: a tap on conversation dead space lands the cursor in the input. Message controls and transcript text-selection are unaffected, and it stays inert while a prompt occupies the interaction zone. (T-227)
- Claude composer prompt history (Claude-CLI-style): Up recalls previously-sent prompts once the caret reaches the first line, Down steps back to newer ones and restores your in-progress draft past the newest. Per session. (T-163)
- clide-hosted Claude sessions are now bootstrapped to drive the IDE: each
spawned session gets
CLIDE_SOCK/CLIDE_WORKSPACEin its env andclideon its PATH, a system-prompt note telling it it is inside clide and how to useclide …, and aBash(clide:*)allow rule so those calls aren't prompted. Applies to primary, secondary, fork, and teammate sessions. (T-214, D-83) - The
clideCLI now ships on PATH:make buildandmake installcompile the C client by default, andmake installplaces it at~/.local/bin/clideon Linux and macOS (the GUI launches via its desktop entry). Previously no build produced the client andinstallsymlinked the GUI runner. (T-209) - Vim keymap preset: a modal editor (normal/insert/visual) with hjkl/w/b/e
motions, dd/dw/x/D/yy/p/cc/cw edits, counts (
5j), visual-range d/y/c, and a status-bar mode indicator. Switch presets from the palette (Keymap: Vim/Keymap: Default). Built on a new keymap key-sequence layer (D-82). (T-65) - Search-and-replace across the workspace: enter a replacement in the search
panel to preview each rewritten line, then Replace all (regex capture groups
supported). Guarded by a clean-git-tree gate — git is the undo — and a
confirmation. New
search.replacecommand (preview + apply). (T-53) - Find-in-files sidebar panel (Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+F): search the workspace with regex and case toggles plus include/exclude globs; results stream in grouped by file and clicking a match opens the editor at that line. (T-52)
- Workspace content-search engine with
search.grep/search.cancelcommands: a pure-Dart, isolate-parallel grep (literal or regex, case + include/exclude glob filters) that streams matches and honours theignore_files:chain. The engine is in-process — no ripgrep dependency (D-79). (T-52) editor.openaccepts an optional 1-basedlineto position the initial selection on open (backs find-in-files click-to-line). (T-52)- Quick-open file finder (Ctrl/Cmd+P): a fuzzy file picker overlay over the
whole workspace, separate from the command palette. Empty query lists recent
files; Enter opens
.mdin the markdown reader and other files in the editor. (T-51) - Workspace ignore now follows the
ignore_files:list in.pql/config.yaml(ordered, later-wins, per D-4) instead of a hardcoded.gitignore+.clideignorepair — the single ignore knob clide owns. (T-52) files.walkcommand — a recursive, ignore-pruned, capped flat file listing of the workspace, backing quick-open and search. (T-51, T-52)- Sidebar readers (markdown, decision, ticket) gain chrome: a pin/unpin toggle before the title (separate from navigation), plus a right-hand navigator (back, forward, jump-to-pin) and edit pencil. The ticket reader also joins the shared retained nav. (T-189, T-190, T-191, T-198, T-199)
Changed
- Ticket cards now show parentage as a small tree — the parent as a muted,
clickable breadcrumb above and the card's own ticket bold under a
└connector — instead of the ambiguous inlineT-1 ← T-9arrow. (T-281) - The in-flight turn indicator ("Pondering…") now renders in Claude's coral-orange brand accent instead of muted grey. (T-273)
- A sub-agent's prose and thinking are now attributed to the
agent(a muted stripe), not the main-thread coralclaude— so a sub-agent's output is no longer presented as if the main Claude said it. Main-thread items are unchanged. (T-265) - A sub-agent's whole run — prose, thinking, and tool calls — now nests in
an
agent runholder under its Agent card instead of spilling loose into the main thread. It attaches viaparentUuid(correct for parallel agents), and the redundant returned-result is no longer shown twice. (T-264) - The folded activity card now reads as one container wrapping its sub-cards, and you can collapse it by clicking anywhere on the holder's own background — not a top header that scrolls out of reach as a run streams. Taps on a sub-card (and its copy button) still hit that card; a focusable caret keeps the control keyboard/AT reachable. (T-266)
- A sub-agent prompt is no longer mislabelled as your input: a sidechain
prompt now reads as a muted
agent prompt(never the blueyou) and folds into its Agent/Task card, collapsed by default. The prompt attaches to the right card viaparentUuid, so parallel agents in one turn stay correctly paired. The sub-agent's work stays visible after the call. (T-263) - A successful tool call now renders as one merged card instead of a separate call + result pair: a green check sits at the header's right edge and the output folds in as a colorized code block (Read → file grammar, Bash → shell) revealed on expand. Failures keep their prominent red card, now with a matching header mark. (T-262)
- The in-flight turn indicator now feels alive: instead of a static gray
running…, it shows a rotating curated status verb (Pondering…,Conjuring…, …) with an animated ellipsis. Respects reduced-motion (static verb) and keeps a stable a11y label. (T-255) - The
clideCLI launch check now distinguishes a dev-tree build (native/<plat>/clide) from a packaged install — surfaced as an info note on a checkout rather than treated as a clean install or prompting a reinstall. (T-256) - Command palette (⌘⇧P) now fuzzy-matches command titles (subsequence, not just substring) and floats recently-used commands to the top. (T-23)
- ⌘K now opens a Settings modal instead of a theme-only picker. Its first
(currently only) section is Appearance — base themes, sorted, with a High
contrast toggle for
-hcsiblings — matching the status-bar switcher. (T-238) - The pql search panel merged into the Search tab, which now has modes: Find (content grep), Vault (pql ranked search), Query (PQL DSL), and Markdown (the synced file listing). The standalone pql sidebar tab is gone; Backlinks stays in the context panel. (T-201)
Fixed
- Folded activity and agent-run cards in the Claude conversation now use the same bottom spacing as the prose cards around them, instead of sitting cramped 3px below the next card. (T-282)
- The welcome screen no longer overflows on a short or narrow window — its content scrolls when it can't fit and stays centred when it can, and a long git-branch name on a recent-project row now truncates with an ellipsis. (T-273)
- Bordered conversation cards (tool / Agent calls) now use the same interior vertical padding (8) as the stripe cards, so a collapsed tool/Agent card no longer reads chunkier — taller box, more trailing space — than its neighbours in the conversation log. (T-282)
- Conversation cards no longer mis-associate their state when the message list reshapes as a tool result streams in. The list items now carry stable per-item keys, so a card you expanded (or its hover/cluster state) stays pinned to its own message instead of jumping to a neighbour when a read/write completes and folds its result in. (T-285)
- The status-bar footer marquee now honours reduced motion: when the OS
reduce-motion setting (
MediaQuery.disableAnimations) is on, a long status line no longer scrolls — it renders statically (clipped) — matching the turn indicator, which already obeyed the flag. Unifies the two animations on one mechanism and removes apumpAndSettlehang the perpetual ticker caused. (T-284) - Switching the workspace in place (Open Project/Folder) now rebinds the Claude pane to the new repo's session instead of keeping the previous repo's conversation, and drops the old repo's secondary tabs. Separate windows were already isolated — this only affected reusing one window for another repo. (T-269)
/clearin the primary Claude pane now clears that session in place — it empties the pane's deterministic, restart-stable session instead of starting a throwaway random one. Previously a cleared primary was orphaned: the next launch re-resolved to the deterministic id and resumed the pre-clear conversation, so the clear silently didn't stick. Secondary panes keep their fresh-session behaviour. (T-268)- In Vim mode, Esc in insert/visual mode returns to normal mode instead of closing the editor. The global "exit focus / close editor" Esc binding now stands down while Vim is in insert or visual mode. (T-257)
- The permission-mode badge and Ctrl/Cmd+M now visibly cycle the mode in the status line. The mode was changed on the session but never reflected back, so both looked dead. (T-250)
- Recent-project rows (welcome screen and the project switcher) now ellipsize a long path instead of overflowing the row — a long repo path no longer spills past the edge. (T-122)
- CLI commands that take arguments now work:
clide editor open <path>,clide files read <path>,clide pane focus <id>/resize <id> <c> <r>, etc. now bind positional/flag argv to the handler's named args (they previously returned "X is required" from the CLI). (T-232) - The Claude composer no longer loses a half-typed message when the UI changes under it — e.g. a permission prompt taking the composer's place. The draft (text and caret) is kept per session and restored when the composer returns. (T-228)
- File watcher no longer emits change events for files inside ignored
directories (
.dart_tool/,build/, etc.): it now checks ancestor dirs, not just the leaf. Most visible on macOS, where FSEvents delivers the nested creates that inotify usually drops. - The Claude sidebar's Activity / Team / Config sub-tabs are now keyboard-
activatable: they were pointer-only (raw
GestureDetector), so Tab traversal skipped them and Enter/Space did nothing. They now useClideTappable(focusable, Enter/Space → activate) and carry button + selected semantics. (T-182) - The default keymap is no longer silently disabled at startup:
default.yamlbound Tab/Shift+Tab to undefinedfocus.next/focus.previousintents, which made the loader drop the entire preset (palette, quick-open, find-in-files, zoom). Those are now real focus-traversal intents, and a test parses every shipped preset so a typo fails CI instead. (T-204) - Opening the editor split no longer floods exceptions: the resize handle's slider semantics now carry increased/decreased values, and the Claude pane keeps a stable identity across the reparent so its text-selection region isn't torn down mid-update. (T-203)
- A
rate_limit_eventwhoseresetsAtis a numeric epoch no longer crashes the Claude session — it was cast as a string. (T-202) - Filter/search inputs show their hint as visible placeholder text, and the search-glass icon is now optional — so the Search tab's Find fields (search, replace, include/exclude globs) are distinguishable instead of four identical empty boxes. (T-201)
- The sidebar icon rail no longer overflows when there are more tabs than fit: it centers the icons when they fit and scrolls horizontally otherwise. (T-200)
- The editor pane now opens over the Claude pane when a file is opened — the reader's edit pencil, a file-tree click, or a decision's edit all reveal the editor tab now (it was contributed but never activated). (T-197)
- Clicking a decision opens it on the first click. The right-pane readers (markdown + decisions) now share a retained back/forward nav history that survives the tab switch, so the selection that reveals a reader is no longer lost before the widget subscribes; back/forward re-emit through that history. (T-196)
- The markdown reader can now open user-scope Claude config files (skills /
agents / commands under
~/.claude), not just repo-local ones.files.readgained a read allow-list covering the workspace plus the trusted Claude config roots; writes stay repo-confined and off-root paths are still rejected. (T-195, D-80) - The markdown reader opens files given an absolute path again (e.g. a skill's
SKILL.mdfrom the Claude Config tab).resolveUnderRootno longer doubles an absolute path onto the workspace root; absolute-under-root resolves, while paths outside the root are still rejected. (T-194) - The composer slash typeahead now lists clide-owned commands —
/resumeand/fork(and/clear) surface even though the CLI probe doesn't advertise them, unioned onto whatever command source the composer uses. (T-162) - Clicking a decision opens it in the decision reader again — the decisions extension no longer tears down and re-contributes its panel tab on every selection; it activates a static tab and reveals the panel like the ticket panel. (T-188)
- Clicking a markdown file opens it in the right-side markdown reader again —
the files panel, the Claude Config tab, and wiki
.mdlinks now publish to the reader instead of the editor. (T-187) - A forked Claude session now reports its real session id (captured from the
branch's
initevent) instead of the placeholder it was spawned with, so a fork can itself be resumed/forked. (T-185) - Claude replies now stream token-by-token. The
--include-partial-messagesoutput arrives asstream_eventdeltas (notassistant+partial:trueas first assumed), so the previous handler never fired; the session now reads the real shape, growing a placeholder in place and finalizing it from the matchingassistantevent. (T-184) - Claude conversation card actions (copy + custom) are now keyboard-focusable and always reachable — revealed on hover or focus, activatable by Tab + Enter/Space, with Semantics labels for assistive tech (T-174).
- Status bar no longer overflows when the focused-pane context line is long — the in-pane slot now takes a flexible share of the bar and marquee-scrolls within it instead of pushing the row past its width.
- Write/Edit permission cards no longer print the file path twice — the
description line is suppressed when it just repeats
file_path. - Resumed Claude session no longer starts with an empty pane —
claude --resumecarries Claude's prior context but emits no past turns over stream-json, so the orchestrator now seeds the conversation by reading the tail (up to 256 KB) of the transcript JSONL on disk.
Changed
- Claude conversation tool cards are now typed — Edit/Write render a diff, Bash shows the command and its output, Read/Grep show the file/query, and each tool result pairs back to its call to render the diff or error in place instead of an indented JSON dump (T-168).
- Claude status line reflects live session state from stream-json events — model, permission mode, context size, and turn cost come straight off the init/result events rather than a separate config probe (T-168).
- Claude session persistence now rides on
claude --resumeinstead of tmux (T-167, amends D-41). A restart resumes the primary session,/clearstarts a fresh one, and/resumereopens a picked session — all without tmux. - Permission prompt cards render the tool input in the shape that fits the
tool — Bash shows the command as a shell code block (with a footer for
run_in_background/timeout), Write shows the path plus the content highlighted from its extension, Edit shows the path plus before/after blocks. Unknown tools fall back to the indented-JSON dump. - Claude meta sidebar is now tabbed — Activity / Team / Config (T-182). Activity shows usage stats plus the primary session's live runtime; Team holds the roster and auto-fronts when a team spawns; Config shows the environment settings table. Activity and Config share one table geometry so switching doesn't jump.
Removed
- tmux is no longer used for Claude sessions (T-167) — the tmux session lifecycle and the tmux-polling team observer are gone, replaced by the managed-session orchestrator. tmux is still used for the general-purpose terminal pane.
Added
- Claude team cockpit — the meta sidebar's Team tab gains live controls for
clide-managed agents: show/hide, mute, close, and inject-a-message per
roster row, plus a live shared task list with reassign. Each action has a
matching
clidecommand (D-6 parity). (T-171, D-77) - Per-agent permission-mode badge in the cockpit roster — click cycles the
safe trio default → acceptEdits → plan and sends
set_permission_modeto that session; Shift-click reachesbypassPermissionsbehind a confirm. The badge reflects the live mode. (T-181, D-77) - Fork a Claude conversation into a new pane —
/fork(or a roster Fork button /clide.agent.fork) branches a session via--resume … --fork-session, opening an independent continuation that leaves the original untouched. (T-172, D-77) - Team chat inbox — broker traffic renders as a chat timeline (colour-coded
sender chips), in a compact cockpit widget that pops out to a full pane. The
user is a first-class participant: post with
@namerouting (or broadcast), with an interrupt tickbox that cancels the target's turn before delivery. (T-180, D-77) - Config sidebar tab — a pinned settings table plus expandable, never-truncated
sections for skills / agents / commands / hooks / permissions (colour-coded by
kind) / MCP servers; file-backed entries open their
.mdin the reader. ClaudeConfig now also surfaces agents, hooks, MCP servers, and file paths. (T-183, D-76) - Team coordination broker (T-170, D-77) — clide hosts an in-process MCP
server (
clide-team) for managed sessions over the stream-json control channel, giving agents tools to message each other, broadcast, see the roster, read an inbox, and share a task list. Each agent's role and the roster are injected into its system prompt. - Interrupt a running Claude turn (D-78) — Escape in the composer (when no typeahead is open) or a Stop button shown while busy cancels the current turn over the stream-json control channel. The escape hatch from a runaway turn.
- Native permission & AskUserQuestion prompts (T-166, T-175, T-176, T-179, D-78) — the composer becomes a prompt: Allow / Allow-and-don't-ask-again / Deny showing the command, or an AskUserQuestion option picker (single or stepped, with "Other" free-text and per-choice notes). Closes the tmux prompt gap.
- Conversation message cards (T-173) — every turn in the Claude pane now renders through one card template with a copy button on hover and a collapse/expand caret for tool calls, results, and thinking.
- Collapsed-by-default tool cards (T-177) — multi-line tool calls and results start collapsed behind a one-line summary; one-line output stays inline so a caret never hides a single line.
- Prompted tool calls are quieter in the log (T-179) — a permission request shows the command in the prompt, not as a raw tool-use card; once decided it collapses to a one-line summary with a green (approved) or red (denied) border, and the result is kept. AskUserQuestion's tool-use + result are replaced by the logged answer.
- Harness-injected messages are de-emphasized (T-178) — skill loads,
slash-command expansions, and system reminders (Claude's
isSyntheticmessages) render as a muted, collapsed "context" card instead of a blue "you" message, since they weren't typed by the user. - Claude meta sidebar (T-141, T-157) — an always-pickable left-panel tab
showing Claude activity (the latest day's messages/sessions/tool-calls
plus lifetime totals, from
stats-cache.json) and, when a tmux team is running, a roster of its members (colour · name · agent type · model) with each member's live permission-mode and context once it's active. - Claude session storage view (T-148) — the
claude.session-storagecommand opens a modal listing the workspace's session transcripts with their on-disk sizes and a total, each removable with a two-click confirm. User-driven only; clide never deletes transcripts on its own. - Slash-command typeahead in the Claude composer (T-152) — typing
/(anywhere in the message, not just at the start) pops a list of matching commands and skills sourced from the Claude environment; arrow keys move, Enter/Tab completes, Escape dismisses. - Claude environment service (T-151) — clide reads skills, commands,
settings, and permissions from
~/.claudeand the repo's.claude(layered), and caches the slash-command list per claude version. Backs the typeahead and command-aware send. - Per-session status in the bottom status bar (T-145, T-150, T-154) — the active Claude pane shows its model · permission mode (accept-edits / plan / …) · context-token count · configured skills count, swapping to the focused pane on tab switch and clearing on blur. Long status text marquee-scrolls within the slot.
- tmux agent teams surface as native teammate tiles (T-139, T-140) — when a Claude team is running, each teammate shows as a live conversation tile beside the lead in a grid that wraps 1→2→3 columns, with a resizable split. Identity and lifecycle come from the team config; per-teammate content streams over the MessageBus.
- Native composer in the Claude pane (T-138) — type below the conversation and press Enter to send (Shift+Enter for a newline). Submits via the tmux server (bracketed paste + Enter), so input reaches Claude even when no tmux client is attached; multi-line goes as one message.
- File and image paste in the composer (T-138, T-142) — Ctrl/Cmd+V of a
copied file or clipboard image adds a removable chip (image thumbnail
or file icon) above the input; on send its
@pathis appended to the message. Plain text pastes inline. Backed by a nativeclide/clipboardchannel (GTK + macOS). - Claude pane renders natively from the transcript (T-137, D-75) — the conversation shows as native cards (user / assistant markdown / thinking / tool-use / result) instead of a terminal, with text selection + copy across cards. Claude still runs in tmux; the terminal builtin stays for general use.
- Multi-file editor tabs — the editor pane now shows one tab per open buffer (filename + a dot when unsaved) via the shared tab strip; opening a second file no longer replaces the first. Click a tab to switch, × to close. Backed by the daemon's existing multi-buffer model.
- Typed IPC command-schema framework (T-119/T-120, D-74) — commands register an argument schema beside their handler; the dispatcher normalises argv into named args, coerces types, and validates (charset, leading-dash, ranges, caps) before the handler runs.
clide panel resize <slot>CLI verb (T-119) — set an absolute size with--toor nudge with--by;editortargets the split ratio. Completes user/Claude parity (D-6) with T-111's keyboard resize.- Unix-domain IPC socket server in the Flutter app (T-99 / T-124).
Per-workspace path (D-70:
$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/clide/<hash>.sockon Linux,~/Library/Caches/clide/<hash>.sockon macOS). 0600 socket- 0700 parent (D-71). Multi-connection accept loop with serial

DaemonDispatcher(D-72). Foundation for the Cclideclient (T-126) and MCP (T-130). No client yet — testable viasocat - UNIX-CONNECT:$SOCK.
- 0700 parent (D-71). Multi-connection accept loop with serial

Pure Dart; lets the C client (T-126) stay a dumb pipe (T-99 / T-125). DaemonClient.reconnectAt(newPath)— swap an active client onto a different socket without restart (project switch in T-127).- Event streaming over the IPC socket (T-99 / T-129) —
clide tail --events [--filter X]opens a long-lived subscription, replays up to 16 recent matching events per subsystem (D-6), and streams new ones as JSON lines. C client loops ondata.streamingack. Slow / broken subscribers drop themselves without blocking the bus. - MCP server over HTTP+SSE (T-99 / T-130, per D-68 / D-73). Localhost
HTTP listener advertises via
$HOME/.claude/ide/<pid>.lockso Claude Code's/idediscovers it. JSON-RPC 2.0 with the two minimum/idetools shipped as stubs (mcp__ide__getDiagnostics,mcp__ide__executeCode); real implementations follow. - C
clideshell client atnative/clide-cli/clide.c. Walks CWD up to the git root, hashes to the per-workspace socket (D-70), ships argv.make clide-clibuilds it; on PATH,clide statusworks from any clide-workspace directory once the app is up (T-99, T-126). - Startup project picker — clide now opens to the welcome screen by default instead of auto-opening the last project. A per-row "always open this project on launch" checkbox in welcome's RECENT list sets a sticky-startup flag; if exactly one project has it, that one opens directly. Two or more, or none ⇒ picker (T-115).
- CONTRIBUTING.md "Running clide from the shell" section — documents
the shell verbs, exit-code contract per D-68, and Claude Code
/ideMCP discovery via~/.claude/ide/<pid>.lock(T-131).
Changed
- The empty Claude pane now shows a native startup banner — clide logo, session role, workspace, and tmux status — instead of a bare "Waiting for Claude…" (T-149).
- User and Claude turns in the conversation now render as distinct accent-striped cards over a filled background — your prompts in the theme focus colour, Claude's replies in Claude's brand orange (T-143, T-144).
- Claude conversation content now flows through the kernel MessageBus — a reader tails the transcript and publishes items; the pane subscribes. Decouples reading from rendering so the upcoming team panels can show one lead plus a tile per teammate (T-137).
- In-process IPC dispatch swapped for socket loopback (T-127). The
Flutter UI's
DaemonClientnow talks to its ownIpcServerover the same per-workspace Unix socket the Cclideclient uses — one transport, one contract. - D-56 / D-68 amended with implementation notes — both decisions now link out to T-99's eight slices (T-124–T-131) and the D-70/71/72/73 records they spawned (T-131).
Deprecated
Removed
lib/kernel/src/ipc/in_process.dart(InProcessClient) — replaced by the socket-loopbackDaemonClient(T-127).lib/kernel/src/backend.dart,lib/kernel/src/backend_entry.dart,lib/kernel/src/ipc/isolate_client.dart— the third unused IPC path (a backend-isolate model that was never wired through). Only the socket model survives now (T-128).
Fixed
- Claude pane is no longer dead-on-arrival when resuming a session (T-161).
The primary pane (and
/resume) relaunched Claude with--session-id <existing-id>, which Claude rejects as "already in use" — so the pane had no live backend and typed input vanished. clide now uses--resumefor an existing session and--session-idonly for a brand-new one. - Claude pane no longer floods the console with "markNeedsBuild called during build" (T-159) — a focused pane surfacing its status-bar widget now defers the notification out of the build phase instead of rebuilding the status item mid-build.
- The git / tickets / decisions / pql / problems tabs no longer log
i18n: namespace not registeredon boot (T-155). An extension's localized tab title is now loaded automatically on activation, and the five missing catalogs were added. - Slash commands sent from the Claude composer now actually run (T-153).
Recognised commands are delivered as typed input so Claude's TUI parses
them; other input (and stray leading slashes like a
/tmppath) stays bracketed-pasted as literal text. /clearis now handled by clide — it resets the Claude pane to a fresh, empty session — instead of being forwarded to Claude Code, whose/clearforked to a new session clide couldn't follow and left the pane unresponsive (T-156)./resumeis now handled by clide too (T-156): it opens a picker of the workspace's past sessions — each labelled by its first … last user message and when it was last active — and re-binds the pane to the chosen one, instead of forwarding Claude Code's session-forking/resume.- Claude secondary panes no longer flash a false "session exited" while the session is alive (a transient tmux client exit is now verified against the live session), and the tab and banner agree on the label ("session N") (T-149).
- Claude pane no longer gets stuck on "Waiting for Claude…" when its
session can't be bound (T-147) — e.g. a session left over from before
session-id binding, or a fresh machine. It now retires that stale
clide session and starts a clean one. Only clide's own
-L clidesessions are touched (never a terminal Claude, never transcript files). - Secondary Claude tabs showed the primary's conversation instead of
their own (T-146). Each pane now binds to its own session via
claude --session-id, so concurrent sessions in one workspace stop colliding on the newest transcript — the primary keeps a stable id (resumes), secondaries get a fresh one (clean session). - Claude pane no longer freezes the app on open — the transcript reader caps its initial read to the recent tail, parses off the UI isolate, and coalesces view notifications into one rebuild per burst (T-137).
- Daemon-not-connected on startup — panels and the Claude pane raced the socket loopback. Requests now wait briefly for an in-flight connection, the server isn't restarted for the same workspace, and the client connects once instead of twice.
Security
[2.1.0] — 2026-05-18
Added
- Contrast gate split — baseline
canonicalPairsevery theme passes, strictextendedPairs(muted/status/syntax/focus-border) gated to-hc/-cbvariants. Shipsclide-hc,midnight-hc,paper-hc,terminal-hcsiblings of the named themes (D-69, T-114, T-118). - Pre-push coverage gate —
make push-checkrunsci/coverage_gate.sh, which fails if total line coverage drops belowcoverage_floor:inpubspec.yaml. Floor ratchets up only; target 95% (D-66). - Pre-push changelog gate —
ci/changelog_gate.shfails on any## [Unreleased]bullet over 60 words. Enforces the Keep-a-Changelog conciseness rule in the git-commit skill. - Keymap layer (
KeymapService) — typed Intents, YAML presets, VS-Code-style when-clauses, layered preset → user file → settings overlay. Default preset ships; vim/vscode/jetbrains unblocked (T-117, supersedes T-110). - Keyboard operability —
ClideTappableis now Tab-focusable with a focus ring and Enter/Space activation;ClidePaletteadds arrow nav, Escape dismiss, and selection highlight (T-100). - Panel-to-panel focus traversal — each
SlotHostwraps in aFocusScope+FocusTraversalGroup;F6/Shift+F6cycle sidebar → workspace → context.FocusTrackerintegrates with Flutter focus rather than paralleling it (T-105). - Event-driven test waits — PTY + watcher tests await stream events
instead of fixed sleeps;
onTimeoutcallbacks nowfail()loudly with diagnostic context.RecordingEventSinkexposes a broadcast stream for the same pattern (T-108). - Code-quality cleanups —
TreeSitterLibexposes a last-error diagnostic instead of swallowing dlopen failures;ExtensionManagersurfaces afailedExtensionsmap for UI degradation; PTY constants consolidated inlibc.dart+PosixErrno;test_app.dartgated behindkDebugMode(T-112). - Test sweep —
keybindings,toolchain_paths, and severalwidgets/src/primitives (tooltip, palette, multitab, markdown). tree_sitter_servicesweep — fake-FFI + real-library smoke, 17% → 96%. Crosses the 95% global target (T-91).- Staged
dart docCI job — generates and uploads an HTML API reference for the publiclib/surface. The step wrapsdart doc --validate-linksand grep-fails the build on any warning. Inert with the rest of the workflow until Gitea Actions activates. - Mouse wheel scrolling in Claude pane — converts scroll events to PgUp/PgDown so TUI apps scroll their history naturally.
- Welcome screen Tips card — six common keybindings shown below the START / RECENT row when the viewport is tall enough.
MultitabPanewidget +MultitabControllerfor panes that host N runtime tab instances of the same kind. Generic over a payload type, supports pinned/non-closeable tabs, drag-reorder, close × on hover, and an optional+add button.MultitabPane.keepAlivemode — entry bodies stay mounted via IndexedStack so switching tabs preserves their state (PTY connections, scroll position, etc.).CONTRIBUTING.md— human-addressed contributor guide covering clone / build / test / DQR / tickets / commit conventions. The[Unreleased]section is reorganised to one subsection per kind per Keep a Changelog 1.1.0 (T-109).make verify— no-tests sweep (analyze + format + decisions + changelog gate). For mid-edit checks;make push-checkstays the full pre-push pipeline.
Changed
- Terminal mouse wheel forwards as proper xterm wheel-button escapes when the inner program declares a mouse mode (?1000h / ?1002h / ?1003h, optionally +?1006h SGR). Falls back to PgUp/PgDown only when no mouse mode is active. vim mouse=a / htop / less mouse modes now react to the wheel (T-74).
lib/src/terminal/cleaned to the project bar — commented-outprint()debugging stubs stripped fromcustom_text_edit.dart, stale TODOs inparser.dart+keytab.dartreplaced with clear "not implemented" notes (G2/G3 charsets, VT52 records), and the one// ignore: invalid_use_of_protected_memberinterminal_view.dartgets an inline reason explaining why TerminalView owns its own ShortcutManager. Parser split deferred to T-123 (T-107).- Window-control close-button red, white close glyph, and palette
ambient shadow are now tokens (
windowControl.closeHover*,shadow.ambient) instead of hard-coded hex. Light themes get a softer ink-tinted shadow (T-114). - Text-zoom (Ctrl +/-/0) is now a kernel
TextZoomservice and shows up in the palette asView: Zoom In/Out/Reset Zoom(T-114). make gen-build-infobakeslib/src/build_info.g.dart(name, tagline, version, repository, commit, date) and rewritesassets/licenses.yamlself.version:frompubspec.yamlon every build/run/test target. Welcome banner / status line / window title / project switcher labels all read from those constants — one source of truth, no manual sync, no--dart-defineplumbing. Newtagline:field in pubspec for the short user-facing line (welcome subtitle, future web meta).- Panel splitters (sidebar / context / editor-split) are tab-focusable; arrow keys nudge by 10 px, Shift+arrow by 50 px (2% / 10% for the editor split). Exposed as slider Semantics nodes so screen readers announce the current size. CLI verb deferred to T-99 (T-111).
- Changelog gate is binary — dropped the soft 40-word warning, kept the 60-word hard cap. Warnings that never blocked just normalised drift.
- PTY spawning uses
posix_openpt+posix_spawninstead offorkpty— closes a ~5% deadlock window in the multithreaded Dart VM (T-96, D-5 amended). Missing exe/cwd now throwPtyExceptionat spawn time. Drops thelibutil.so.1dependency. - Coverage floor ratcheted to 95% — D-66 target hit.
TreeSitterServiceandTreeSitterLibaccept injectable FFI + asset loaders for fake-driven tests; production paths unchanged.- Tidied test imports flagged by
unnecessary_import. README.mdrewritten to match current architecture;docs/initial-plan.mdbannered as historical; newdocs/architecture.mddescribes today's shape (T-101).SchedulerService._stopTickernow awaits the in-flight isolate spawn before killing — closes the same race shape we fixed in PTY (T-106).make push-check-fulladded — runspush-checkplus integration + smoke for pre-release checks. Integration tests skip the hanging theme_picker case until that's fixed (T-103, T-116).- Governance bookkeeping: D-66 amended (floor at
coverage_floor:inpubspec.yaml);licenses.yamlreconciled withpubspec.yaml; Q-1/Q-2/Q-3/Q-25 triaged;.claude/skills/README.mdinventory added;--no-fatal-infosdropped fromci/test.sh(T-113). - Terminal panes render bold attributes with a real bold weight —
bundled JetBrainsMono Bold + BoldItalic registered with the
JetBrainsMonofamily atweight: 700. The painter's bold suppression workaround is gone. - Claude pane uses
MultitabPanefor primary + secondaries — drops ~100 lines of bespoke tab-strip code, gains drag-to-reorder. - UI spacing constants live in
lib/widgets/src/spacing.dart—clideInset*for paddings,clideGap*for sibling distances,clideIcon*/clideControlHeightfor control sizes. - Tagline reads "IDE for Claude Code CLI" everywhere (welcome subtitle, README, CLAUDE.md, pubspec, web manifest, CLI banner).
- Inline terminal emulator based on xterm.dart v4.0.0 — replaces the
pub.dev dependency with owned code under
lib/src/terminal/. Drops three transitive dependencies (xterm, quiver, zmodem). - Bundle clide-specific tmux.conf for Claude pane sessions: no status bar, 50k scrollback, mouse on, zero escape delay, isolated socket.
- Claude pane spawns
claudedirectly inside tmux withCLAUDE_CODE_NO_FLICKER=1to enable Claude's fullscreen TUI mode. - PTY read buffer increased from 4 KB to 64 KB.
- Terminal view 2 px padding on all sides.
Removed
bin/clide.dart+DaemonServer— completing the D-56 dissolution. The separate daemon process was dissolved on 2026-04-23 but the entry point and socket server class were never deleted. Gone now, along with orphaned tests, stale i18n strings, and "startclide --daemon" error messages.ptyc/source tree +PtySession+scm_rights.dart— PTY spawning migrated to Dart FFIforkpty()(NativePty) but the old C helper and its Dart wiring were never cleaned up. Removed from toolchain resolution,ToolCheckgate, backend serialization, testmode harness, CI scripts, Makefile, and sandbox entitlements. D-5 amended to record the retirement.- CI golden images (
test/goldens/goldens/ci/) — Skia anti-aliasing of geometric shapes differs between macOS and Linux even with the Ahem font. Replaced with platform-keyed goldens (goldens/linux/,goldens/macos/). - Bold JetBrains Mono font registration that prevented glyph-width mismatch in terminal rendering — superseded by the Bold/BoldItalic re-registration above.
Fixed
- Welcome status line no longer overflows on narrow viewports —
whole-row
FittedBox(scaleDown)instead of fixed sibling widths. InlinefontSize:literals replaced with the typography constants. Version label readsclideVersionso the status line stays in sync withpubspec.yaml(T-116). - Integration test
theme_picker_test.dartno longer deadlocks — wasawaitingservices.commands.execute('theme.pick')whose Future doesn't complete until the dialog is dismissed. Now fire-and-forget aroundpumpAndSettle(T-116). TerminalView.onTapUpnow actually fires on primary tap — was wired to a dead code path (T-93). DeadonTapUpsurface onTerminalGestureHandler/TerminalGestureDetectorremoved.BufferLine.eraseRangeno longer panics when called withend == 0. Real trigger:Terminal.eraseDisplayAbovewith the cursor at column 0 — common afterESC[H\x1b[1J(home + erase-above).- Terminal selections no longer vanish when resizing narrower — reflow's tail-anchor handler left anchors detached past the trimmed range. Common triggers: Ctrl+A then resize, drag past a partially-filled line (T-92).
BufferLine.removeCells/insertCells/disposeno longer skip anchors due to concurrent list modification during iteration — iteration now snapshots the list first (T-91).- Closing a secondary Claude pane tab now kills its tmux session on
the clide socket, honouring D-41's lifecycle. Previously
pane.closeonly killed the ptyc-spawned tmux client. - Cold-start reap: every clide launch kills any leftover secondary tmux sessions for the current repo before spawning new ones, so D-41's "secondary numbering resets between runs" holds.
claude.kill-all-sessionscommand now actually kills the server-side tmux sessions for the repo, not just the panes.- Terminal cell grid no longer drifts on bold text — bold rendering is suppressed at the painter level since synthetic bold (with no Bold.ttf registered) shifts glyph advance widths.
- PTY surfaces errno on
forkpty/write/ioctlfailures instead of swallowing.execvefailures write a diagnostic to the slave before_exit.NativePty.writeandPtySession.writeloop on short writes; both throwPtyExceptionon hard errors. - PTY teardown order fixed — kill child first so the master fd returns EOF, await reader isolate exit, then close the fd.
- Reader isolate spawn errors in
NativePty/PtySessionare now surfaced via the output stream instead of silently dropped._recvFdAsyncno longer leaks theReceivePorton spawn throw. - IPC server hardening: per-request 60s timeout (configurable), broadcast/response write failures logged instead of swallowed, client dropped on response-write failure, and the stale-socket retry now probes for a live daemon before unlinking the socket.
pane.spawnandeditor.openmap POSIX errno values to actionable IPC error kinds (ENOENT →not_found, EACCES/EPERM →user_error, EISDIR/ENOTDIR/EEXIST → distinct kinds, EMFILE/ENFILE →tool_errorwith an fd-limit hint).
Security
- IPC:
git.checkout,git.pushreject branch/remote args starting with-(closes the--upload-pack=...argv-injection vector).files.readrejects files over 10 MB.git.logcapscountat 1000;git.diff/git.stagecap paths at 256 (T-104). - Toolchain no longer resolves the dugite git binary against the open
workspace — a malicious repo could plant
native/dugite/bin/gitand clide would run it on auto-firedgit.status. Dugite now resolves against the install dir +CLIDE_DUGITE_DIRenv override only (T-98). files.readandfiles.lsreject symlinks whose targets live outside the workspace — closes a path-safety bypass via in-repo symlinks (T-102).files.readandfiles.lsreject paths that resolve outside the workspace root. Previously a relative path containing..could read arbitrary files via path traversal.
[2.0.0] — 2026-05-03
Fixed
-
PTY FFI constants now platform-dispatched:
TIOCSWINSZ(0x80087467macOS /0x5414Linux),O_NONBLOCK(0x0004/0x0800), andMsghdrDarwinstruct with correct 4-byte field widths for macOSrecvmsg(). -
App settings directory uses
~/Library/Application Support/clideon macOS instead of~/.config/clide. -
Removed hardcoded
TERMINFO=/usr/share/terminfofrom pane spawn environment — let the system resolve terminfo per platform. -
Panel
tabsFor()now sorts by contribution priority when no user order is set.
Changed
-
Canonical upstream moved from Gitea to GitHub (
github.com/postmeridiem/clide). -
README rewritten to reflect current single-process Flutter architecture, built-in extensions, and build commands.
-
Renamed desktop binary from
clide_apptoclide(Linux + macOS). -
macOS app icon uses the black-circle variant matching the Linux desktop icon.
-
ClideTestApp expanded to three test categories (toolchain, ipc, extensions) with JSON summary, non-zero exit on failure, and
make run-testmode TESTMODE_CATEGORY=<cat>for selective runs.
Added
-
make install/make uninstall— builds the release bundle and installs it to~/.local/with XDG desktop entry, icon registration at seven sizes, and icon cache refresh. macOS installs to~/Applications/clide.app. -
Backend isolate — all subprocess and file I/O runs in a dedicated isolate, keeping the merged UI/platform thread on macOS free for rendering. Communicates via SendPort using the existing IPC protocol. Two-phase boot: resolve toolchain on spawn, initialize services on project open. Scheduler ticker only runs while a project is active.
-
Toolchain — centralized binary resolution replacing five ad-hoc mechanisms. Resolves git, pql, tmux, ptyc, shell once at boot via background isolate. Status bar reads
toolchain.missingdirectly. -
GitClient — typed Dart API wrapping all git operations. Every subprocess call goes through
_run()with toolchain-resolved path and environment. Replaces scatteredProcess.run('git', ...)calls. -
Native directory picker — macOS NSOpenPanel via method channel in AppDelegate, GTK file chooser on Linux. Falls back to text-input dialog on web. Shows "No git repo found" dialog on invalid selection.
-
macOS desktop target — OS-detecting Makefile (
make runworks on macOS/Linux/Windows), 1280x720 default window, squared app icons, sandbox entitlements with SBPL exceptions,_DARWIN_C_SOURCEfor ptyc compilation, native traffic dots skipped (macOS titlebar owns them), expanded PATH for Homebrew and~/.local/binon GUI apps. -
Shared ClideFilterBox widget with search icon, clear button, and debounced input. Applied consistently across all sidebar panes: Files (path filter with flat results), Git (filter staged/unstaged by path), Decisions (filter by ID/title/domain), Tickets (filter by ID/title/status), Problems (filter by source/message), and pql Query (replaces custom input).
-
Interaction model from Wireframe Flows v3: eight new D-records (D-47 through D-54) and five Q-records (Q-26 through Q-30) codifying layout invariants, chrome budget, editor mode, context auto-behavior, collapse spine, focus mode, state persistence, and the canonical keyboard map.
-
Panel collapse spine — collapsed side panels render as a 12px vertical spine with rotated label, hover highlight, and badge dot for pending context (D-51, T-30).
-
Focus mode —
Ctrl+.takes the active panel full-window;Escaperestores the prior layout with collapse states and divider positions intact (D-52, T-31). -
Canonical keyboard shortcuts from the interaction model: collapse toggles (
Ctrl+Shift+1/3), panel focus (Ctrl+1/2/3), sidebar section switching (Alt+1–5), focus mode, andEscapedismiss (D-54, T-33). -
Right panel (context) icon rail — bottom section switcher matching the left sidebar rail pattern (D-47, T-34).
-
Editor-above-Claude mode —
Ctrl+Eopens the editor as a split above Claude in the middle column with a draggable divider;Ctrl+WorEscapecloses it. Prompt bar Y stays fixed (D-49, T-35). -
Layout state persists across sessions — collapse state, sidebar and context panel sizes, active sections, and editor split ratio saved to
.clide/settings.yaml(D-53, T-32). -
Phosphor Icons font (v2.0.8, MIT) — regular, bold, and fill weights. Replaces hand-painted CustomPaint icons in sidebar and context panel icon rails.
-
Decisions panel in sidebar — lists confirmed D-records from
pql decisions listwith ID and title (T-37). -
Tickets panel in sidebar — lists tickets from
pql ticket listwith status dot color-coded by state (T-37). -
Markdown viewer in context panel — shows raw content of the active .md file, auto-updating on buffer switch (T-38).
-
Clickable DQRT record links in markdown —
[D-56],[T-43]etc. rendered as tappable links that navigate to the decision or ticket detail pane via the message bus. -
Ctrl+Plus / Ctrl+Minus / Ctrl+0 text zoom (5% steps, 60%–200% range) via
MediaQuery.textScaler. Resets on app restart. -
Sidebar focus indicators — selecting a ticket or decision highlights the active card in the sidebar list, auto-expands the accordion section if collapsed, and scrolls the card into view.
-
Typography scale constants
clideFontSmall(12) andclideFontBadge(11) for sidebar metadata and status badges.clideLineHeight(1.25) applied app-wide viaDefaultTextStyle. -
files.readIPC command for reading file content by path. -
pql sidebar restructured: Search tab is the default left tab with ranked text search (debounced, scored results with score bar) and a DSL toggle for raw PQL query mode; Markdown tab (filtered to
.mdfiles) on the right. Clicking a result opens it in the context panel markdown viewer with bidirectional focus highlighting. -
Kernel scheduler service with tiered timers (1min, 10min, 15min, 1hr, midnight) running on a background isolate. Emits
SchedulerTickevents on theDaemonBus. Extensions subscribe by tier (T-61). -
Auto-refresh for sidebar panels: decisions refresh on file changes to
decisions/*.mdand on 1-minute scheduler tick; tickets refresh on 1-minute tick and on status change events (T-62). -
Manual refresh button (arrowClockwise icon) in decisions, tickets, and pql markdown panels (T-63).
-
ClideAccordionshared widget — extracted from tickets and decisions views. Supports optionalleadingwidget (color dot). Pin/focus accordion logic: manually toggled sections are pinned; the focused item's section auto-opens; unpinned sections without focus auto-collapse. -
Ticket status buttons wired to
pql ticket status— clicking a status in the detail view transitions the ticket, refreshes the sidebar list, and scrolls the ticket into its new section. -
pql.tickets.statusIPC command accepting a list of IDs for batch status transitions. -
Ticket sidebar sections split into individual statuses: IN PROGRESS, REVIEW, READY, BACKLOG, DONE, CANCELLED (was four coarse groups).
-
Phosphor Icons codepoint reference CSV at
assets/fonts/phosphor/codepoints.csv— full mapping of all 1512 icon glyphs to kebab-case and PascalCase names. -
Graph view in context panel — lists files with inbound/outbound link counts from
pql search --connections(T-39). -
Welcome screen redesigned as full-screen overlay with two-column layout: START actions (open folder, clone, Claude session) with keyboard shortcuts, and RECENT projects list showing path, branch, and relative timestamps. Status line shows version, daemon connection, and active theme.
-
Recent projects history persisted to user settings (up to 10 entries with path, branch, and last-opened timestamp). Last project auto-restored on boot; falls back to cwd, then welcome.
Changed
-
Workspace renders Claude as the always-visible primary surface instead of showing a tab bar (D-47, D-48). The editor is a split overlay, not a tab.
-
Syntax highlighting via tree-sitter (dart:ffi to vendored libtree-sitter.so with embedded wasmtime). 48 grammar WASM files, 48 highlight queries. Colors map to theme syntax tokens.
-
ClideMarkdown renderer — inline grouping for tight list items, proper HTML entity unescaping after AST parse, Josefin Sans Light with 1.25 line height, 16px body text. Inline code sized to
clideFontMonoto match surrounding text weight. -
Default sidebar and context panel widths widened to 400px and 420px respectively (previous maximums). Context panel max raised to 1000px.
-
Ticket detail loading uses
pql ticket show --with-contextfor a single-call fetch of ancestors, decisions, and children. Replaces N+1 parent-chain walk.--with-decisionand--with-childrenflags consolidated into--with-context. -
Ticket descriptions render through ClideMarkdown instead of plain text, with clickable DQRT record links.
-
Decision detail view subscribes to the message bus for navigation (same pattern as tickets), enabling navigation from any source.
-
TreeSitterService is now a shared singleton — eliminates native double-free crashes from multiple WASM engine instances.
-
Code block syntax highlighting fixes overlapping tree-sitter spans that caused duplicated text (e.g.
makemakeinstead ofmake). -
Context panel drag resize fixed — dragging left now correctly grows the right panel instead of shrinking it.
-
POLICY.md — project-wide rules for runtime behavior, dependency vetting, vendored binary management, telemetry, and licensing.
Changed
-
Line length set to 160 across .editorconfig and dart formatter.
-
Core frame vs shipped extension boundary defined (D-46). Builtins are frame infrastructure only; content extensions are bundled but architecturally removable.
Removed
builtin.jirastub — Jira integration belongs as a third-party extension, not a frame builtin.wasm_runandwasm_run_flutterdependencies — replaced by vendored libtree-sitter.so via dart:ffi. Eliminates runtime network download that violated POLICY.md.
Added
-
pql skill installed via
pql init --with-skill=yes(.claude/skills/pql/SKILL.md). Covers vault queries and the planning surface (decisions + tickets). -
Bash(pql)andBash(pql *)permissions in.claude/settings.json. -
pql daemon subsystem (
lib/src/pql/).PqlClientwraps the pql CLI per D-3. IPC verbspql.files | meta | backlinks | outlinks | tags | schema | query | doctor | decisions.sync | decisions.list | decisions.show | decisions.coverage | tickets.list | tickets.show | tickets.board | plan.status. 15 new core tests. -
builtin.pql— sidebar panel with four views: Files (pql-indexed file listing), Query (PQL DSL input + results), Decisions (synced D/Q/R records colour-coded by type), Tickets (kanban board columns). Context panel tab showing backlinks + outlinks for the active file, auto-refreshing oneditor.active-changedevents. -
builtin.problems— sidebar panel aggregating diagnostics frompql.doctorandpql.decisions.sync. Surfaces missing index DB, stale skill installs, and broken decision cross-references with actionable hints. -
Git subsystem in the daemon (
lib/src/git/). Status parser (git status --porcelain), unified-diff parser, and operations (stage, unstage, stage-hunk, discard, commit, stash, log, pull, push). IPC verbsgit.status | diff | stage | stage-all | unstage | stage-hunk | unstage-hunk | discard | commit | stash | stash-pop | log | pull | pushwithgit.changedevents on mutations. 42 new core tests cover parsing, operations, and dispatcher round-trips. -
clide git …CLI shortcuts:git status,git diff [--staged],git stage <paths>,git stage-all,git unstage,git discard,git commit "<msg>",git log [--count N],git stash,git stash-pop,git pull,git push. -
builtin.git— sidebar panel showing staged, unstaged, untracked, and conflicted file groups. Per-file stage/unstage/discard on hover. Inline commit message input with Commit button. Branch + ahead/behind display with Pull/Push actions. Auto-refreshes ongit.changedevents. -
builtin.diff— workspace tab rendering unified diffs with old/new line numbers, addition/removal colouring, and binary/rename metadata. Staged/Unstaged toggle toolbar. Auto-refreshes ongit.changedevents. -
builtin.editor— Tier-2 editor tab wired up. Contributes a singleEditorworkspace tab that renders the daemon's active buffer via a newEditorController. Hydrates on mount (editor.active→editor.read), subscribes toeditor.opened | active-changed | edited | saved | closed, and propagates user edits back througheditor.set-content. Small echo-suppression guard avoids clobbering the caret when the daemon's authoritative edit echo comes back. Text surface is Flutter'sEditableTextprimitive — noTextField/ Material — so the D-7 "no Material root" stance carries into the editor; JetBrainsMono via the sharedclideMonoFamilyconstants, cursor- selection colours bind to the theme.
-
File-tree click in
builtin.filesnow opens the clicked file in the editor viaipc.request('editor.open', {path}). No local command hop — the dispatch goes straight to the daemon and the UI reconciles through theeditor.active-changedevent. -
CLI shortcuts per CLAUDE.md's Tier-2 list:
clide open <path>,clide active,clide insert <text | ->,clide replace-selection <text | ->,clide save,clide tail --events [--filter SUBSYSTEM[:ID]]. A lone-on insert / replace-selection reads text from stdin (pipe-friendly).tailreads the event-broadcast stream and prints JSON lines until SIGINT;--filternarrows by subsystem or subsystem+id. 5 new end-to-end CLI tests spin up real daemon subprocesses via a per-testCLIDE_SOCKET_PATHoverride (new env knob ondefaultSocketPath) so tests run in parallel without colliding. -
Editor subsystem in the daemon (
lib/src/editor/).EditorBufferholds path + content + cursor/selection + dirty flag;EditorRegistryowns the open-buffer set, active-buffer tracking, and file I/O. IPC verbs land alongside (editor.open | active | activate | list | read | insert | replace-selection | set-selection | set-content | save | close) with matching events (editor.opened | active-changed | selection-changed | edited | saved | closed). Omittingidon mutating verbs targets the active buffer so the tier-2 CLI shortcuts (clide insert "…",clide replace-selection "…") read naturally. 16 new core tests cover the lifecycle + dispatcher round-trips. -
builtin.claude— Tier-1 stub upgraded to the real Claude pane per D-41. Contributes a primaryClaudetab in the workspace slot that spawnstmux new-session -A -s clide-claude-<hash> -- claudevia IPCpane.spawn, with<hash>derived from the git root path so reopening the app re-attaches to the running conversation. Primary has no close affordance; closing the tab doesn't kill the session. Commandclaude.new-secondaryis registered for the palette wiring that's coming next. If tmux isn't on PATH, falls back to spawningclaudedirectly and surfaces "no-tmux · fresh every launch" in the header subtitle. Accompanied by D-41 indecisions/architecture.md. -
builtin.files— workspace filesystem panel in the sidebar. Lazy tree rooted at the git root, expand/collapse, click-to-open plumbed to a futureeditor.opencommand. Backed by a new daemon-sidefiles.*IPC subsystem (files.root,files.ls,files.watch) and aFileWatcherthat wrapsDirectory.watch(recursive: true)with ignore-file filtering. Ignore set composes clide's built-in hide list (.git/,.pql/,.clide/,.dart_tool/,build/,node_modules/) with.gitignore/.clideignoreat the root per D-4.IgnoreSet+IgnorePatternsupport line-per-pattern,#comments, anchored / directory-only / negated forms, and**across directories. 11 new unit tests on the matcher; 5 new dispatcher tests; 171 app tests still green. -
builtin.terminal— general-purpose terminal pane, Tier-1 stub upgraded to a working implementation. Contributes aTerminaltab in the workspace slot that spawns$SHELL -lvia IPCpane.spawn, streamspane.outputevents intoxterm.dart, and routes user input throughpane.write. Resize propagates viapane.resizeon viewport change.initState→ spawn;dispose→pane.close. Error-state surface for "daemon not connected" / "shell exited." No Claude-specific behaviour — that lives inbuiltin.claude+ D-41. -
Shared pane widgets under
app/lib/widgets/:ClidePtyViewwrapsxterm.dartwith clide-theme token bindings, JetBrains Mono as the face, and a Semantics live-region wrapper;ClidePaneChromeis the reusable title strip + optional close button. Consumers of the new widgets (builtin.terminal,builtin.claude) drive the xtermTerminalmodel and route bytes through IPCpane.write/pane.outputevents themselves — the widgets are rendering only, no IPC coupling. -
xterm: 4.0.0Dart dependency on the Flutter app — MIT, listed inlicenses.yamlper D-42. Hand-rolling a VT100 / xterm / truecolour parser + renderer would be weeks for no fidelity win. -
Q-23— open question on SSH-remote development (run clide against a workspace on another host). Local-first stays the Tier-1 target; this records the constraint so the daemon / IPC / extension seams don't unknowingly accrete local-only assumptions. -
IPC
panesubsystem in the daemon (per D-6). Commands:pane.spawn | list | focus | close | write | resize | tail. Events:pane.spawned,pane.output(base64-framed),pane.exit,pane.resized,pane.focused,pane.closed.PaneRegistryowns per-panePtySessionlifecycles + id generation (p_N); aDaemonEventSinkseam lets handlers emit events without depending on the IPC server package.DaemonServer.broadcast()fans events out to every connected client (a later pass adds per-client--filterscoping). Panes carry akind:field —terminaltoday,claudeready for step 7. Covered by 14 new Dart core tests exercising the real registry + dispatcher against theptychelper. -
PtySessionin the Dart core (lib/src/pty/) — spawns a child under a PTY via theptycsupporter tool, receives the master fd overSCM_RIGHTS, and exposes a byte stream, write, resize, and kill. A background isolate loops on blockingread(fd)and posts chunks to the main isolate.close()sends SIGTERM to the child so the PTY's EOF wakes the isolate cleanly, then falls through to SIGKILL + fd close + isolate kill as a safety net. Child env is built viamergePtyEnv()which stamps clide's true-colour defaults (TERM=xterm-256color,COLORTERM=truecolor,CLICOLOR_FORCE=1). Test coverage: echo round-trip, cat write/readback, env stamping verification, idempotent close. -
ffi: 2.1.3as a runtime dependency on the Dart core — justified inpubspec.yaml+ documented inlicenses.yamlper D-42. Used bylib/src/pty/ffi/forsocketpair,recvmsgwithSCM_RIGHTS,read/writeon raw fds, andioctl(TIOCSWINSZ). -
ci/test_core.sh+make test-core— runs the Flutter-free core Dart tests (test/) under a 120s hard timeout with process-group cleanup. Wired intopush-checkahead of the app test suite so a hung PTY test can't block the pre-push gate. -
Josefin Sans bundled as
app/assets/fonts/josefin_sans/as the application UI face — variable-font pair (upright + italic, weight range 100-700), OFL-licensed. Declared as theJosefinSansfamily inapp/pubspec.yaml._AppRootinstalls it as the ambientDefaultTextStyleat weightw300(Light) per the project's aesthetic direction; callers can still pass an explicitfontWeightonClideTextto get bolder emphasis. -
JetBrains Mono bundled as
app/assets/fonts/jetbrains_mono/— Regular / Italic / Bold / BoldItalic weights (OFL-licensed, license file checked in alongside). Declared as theJetBrainsMonofamily inapp/pubspec.yaml.app/lib/widgets/src/typography.dartexposesclideUiFamily+clideMonoFamilyplus platform-ordered fallback chains for both faces, for web builds and harnesses that don't load asset fonts. -
app/assets/licenses.yaml— canonical manifest of every bundled third-party artefact (fonts today; Dart packages + native tools as they land). Schema has name, kind, version, homepage, license,license_filepointer, and a one-line purpose. Bundled alongside the per-dep license texts. The About screen (Tier 6) will render this file verbatim. Accompanied byD-42: adding a dep is a two-step commit (artefact +licenses.yamlentry in the same changeset).
Changed
-
CLAUDE.md "Dependencies & supply chain" section gains the "document every bundled dependency" rule, pointing at
app/assets/licenses.yamlandD-42. -
ptyc/— the C PTY-spawn helper, peer ofpqlperD-5. One-shot, libc-only, ~400 LOC. Reads a JSON request on stdin (argv, optionalcwd/env/cols/rows), doesposix_openpt+fork+execvp, and hands the master fd back to the caller over a unix socket viaSCM_RIGHTS. Socket fd defaults to 3; override viaPTYC_SOCK_FDfor language runtimes that shuffle pipe fds through the low numbers (Python'ssubprocesswithstdout=PIPEdoes this). Exec-failure pipe (CLOEXEC) reports child-side errors to the parent without leaking zombies. Root Makefile gainsptyc-testtarget in addition toptyc-build/ptyc-clean. -
Migrated the
docs/ADRs/content intodecisions/as D/R records: ADR 0001 →D-1, ADR 0002 →R-2(superseded byD-5), ADR 0003 →D-3, ADR 0004 →D-4, ADR 0005 →D-5, ADR 0006 →D-6. Titles preserved; ADR 0006's trailing open questions moved toquestions-architecture.mdasQ-1/Q-2/Q-3. The originals are preserved in git history. -
decisions/at the repo root — Q&D record system ported from settled-reach and adapted for clide's domains. Confirmed decisions (D-NNN) live under domain files (architecture.md,extensions.md,accessibility.md,testing.md,tooling.md,process.md); open questions (Q-NNN) live under parallelquestions-<domain>.md; rejected alternatives (R-NNN) live inrejected.md. Record shape, claiming rules, and the eventual pql-side tooling plan are documented indecisions/README.md. Migration of the existingdocs/ADRs/into these files lands in a follow-up commit. -
DECISIONS.mdone-line pointer at the repo root (matches settled-reach's convention). -
tools/scripts/plan— Python stopgap entrypoint fordecisionsandticketsubcommands, writing to.pql/pql.db(gitignored). Supportsdecisions sync | validate | claim | list | show | coverageandticket new | list | show | status | assign | team | block | unblock | label | search | board, plussqlite-query. Verb shape and output format mirror the eventualpqlsubcommands so migration when pql ships feature parity is a call-site find-replace (tools/scripts/plan→pql). Ported from settled-reach with the Scrum layer stripped; ticket IDs areT-NNN(TEXT PKs) and there's nosprintstable. Time-limited perD-40/R-11. -
make decisions-validate— cheap parser dry-run wired intopush-check. Catches malformed records before push. -
Reserved extension slots —
builtin.decisions,builtin.tickets,builtin.claude-control. Id-reserving stubs underapp/lib/builtin/with no contributions yet. Implementations land onceQ-21resolves (decisions + tickets) or when the claude-control tier arrives (.claude/first-class surface — distinct from the existingbuiltin.claudePTY-pane stub). -
CLAUDE.md— new "Decision discipline" guardrail pointing atdecisions/.
Changed
-
CLAUDE.md— inline ADR links rewritten to point at the migrateddecisions/records; bottom "Open questions" section collapsed to a pointer atdecisions/questions-*.md; parent-project note updated to referencedecisions/architecture.mdinstead of the deleteddocs/ADRs/. -
make decisions-validaterewired fromtools/scripts/plantopql decisions validate. -
Decision discipline guardrail in CLAUDE.md now points at
pql decisions claiminstead of the Python stopgap.
Removed
tools/scripts/plan— Python stopgap planning scripts, superseded bypql1.0 nativedecisionsandticketsubcommands. Sunset condition fromD-40met; deletion perR-11.
Removed
-
docs/ADRs/directory — content lifted intodecisions/as D/R records (see Added above). Originals preserved in git history. -
Go sidecar skeleton under
sidecar/—cmd/clide/main.go,go.mod, and theinternal/*packages (cli,daemon,diag,git,ipc,pql,proc,pty,version). Deleted wholesale per ADR 0005: the "sidecar language: Go" premise no longer holds once the core is Dart. All functionality listed for those packages will be reimplemented underlib/as part of Tier 0. -
Go-specific Makefile targets (
lint,vuln,test-race,fmt,tidy,snapshot,tools,installvia Go), thegovulncheck/goimports/golangci-lintversion pins, and the pre-push hook'sGOBINPATH injection. Replaced with Dart/Flutter equivalents (analyze,format,test,test-integration,buildviadart compile exe). -
module:andgo_version:frompubspec.yaml— single-language core means no Go module path to track.
Changed
- ADR 0002 marked superseded by ADR 0005. The "sidecar language: Go" guardrail is retired. CLAUDE.md's guardrails, dependency notes, and command reference are updated to reflect the Dart-core direction.
.gitignoreretargeted: Flutter/Dart output at the repo root (.dart_tool/,build/, platform ephemeral dirs,bin/clide), plus aptyc/section for the C helper's build artefacts. Go-specific rules removed.ci/lint.sh,ci/test.sh,ci/security.sh, and.githooks/pre-pushrewritten for the Dart toolchain — no Go shell-outs, noGOBINPATH dance.

Makefile targets for every test layer and the UI harness:
test,test-a11y,test-integration,test-e2e,test-all,coverage,smoke-bundle,ui-dev,ui-stop,ui-smoke.push-checknow runstest + test-a11y(fast pre-push gate, <90s). -
Per-layer CI shell scripts under
ci/:test.sh(analyze + format + unit + widget + golden, ~5s),test_a11y.sh(a11y contract),test_integration.sh(integration_test one file at a time — desktop can't batch them reliably),test_e2e.sh(daemon subprocess + browser WASM Playwright smoke),smoke_bundle.sh(xvfb-run the Linux release bundle for 5s; catches dynamic-linker / asset-bundle / plugin-init regressions that widget tests can't see),coverage.sh(flutter test --coverage + lcov summary). -
.gitea/workflows/test.yml— four-job pipeline (unit,integration,startup-bundle,e2e) that shells out to theci/*.shscripts. Not activated yet — Gitea Actions has to be enabled in the instance settings first. GitHub-Actions-syntax-compatible, so copying to.github/workflows/is a one-file move when the repo migrates. -
Web WASM harness under
tools/ui/— Playwright driver so Claude Code (and humans) can drive the Flutter build in a real browser via the Semantics tree.build.sh/serve.sh/stop.shmanage a localhttp.serveron:4280with port-based reclaim and kill (so orphaned listeners from earlier runs get swept).driver.tsexposesClideDriverwithbyLabel/click/type/readText/screenshot/dumpSemanticsTree/waitUntilReady(auto-clicks theflt-semantics-placeholderto enable the semantics tree). First Playwright testsmoke.spec.tsasserts welcome + disconnected labels render in the browser. -
Integration tests under
app/integration_test/, run with theintegration_testpackage against the real built app (not an in-memory widget pump). The load-bearing startup gate lives here:app_starts_test.dartbootsClideApp, waits for the root shell to settle, and asserts the three-column layout + welcome tab + statusbar connection indicator all render. Also covers theme-picker modal open/select/dismiss (theme_picker_test.dart) and extension enable/disable lifecycle with contributions mounting/unmounting (extension_lifecycle_test.dart). -
App-level test suite under
app/test/— 168 tests across four layers:- Unit (
kernel/,extension/) — events bus, settings (scope + YAML round-trip), log, i18n fallback chain matrix, theme resolver + loader + controller, panel registry + arrangement, command registry + keybinding parser + palette filter, extension-manager dep-order / cycle detection / enable-disable, manifest loader, extension scanner. - Widget (
widgets/,builtin/) — every primitive's Semantics presence + token consumption + hover/press states; each Tier 0 built-in's contributions, view, and locale-switch re-render. - Golden (
goldens/) — widget primitives only, Alchemist + Ahem font; PNG fixtures checked in under_files/ci/and_files/linux/. - A11y (
a11y/) —semantic_coverage_test.dart(contract-level check that every built-in carries title + version + label-ready contributions),contrast_test.dart(WCAG-AA ratio gate on every bundled theme's canonical token pairs),i18n_coverage_test.dart(asserts every Tier-0-referenced key is present in itsen_UScatalog),keyboard_traversal_test.dart(focusability smoke).

Test helpers under
app/test/helpers/—KernelFixture(boots a KernelServices with in-memory defaults + a fake daemon for widget-level tests),FakeDaemonClient(subclasses the real client, no socket, drivable connected-state),golden_harness(Alchemist config with Ahem font for cross-platform pixel stability),widget_harness(wraps a widget in Directionality + ClideKernel + ClideTheme + MediaQuery). -
Flutter desktop app scaffold under
app/with a bareWidgetsApproot (no Material, no Cupertino) and the Tier 0 three-column layout.- Kernel (
app/lib/kernel/) — 18 services consumed by every extension:settings(scope-resolved get/set acrossapp.*/project.*/ext.*),project,extensions,theme,panels(slot registry + arrangement),events,ipc,commands(+ palette + keybinding resolver),clipboard,files,notify,dialog(single-at-a-time modal router),tray,secrets,os,net,focus, andlog. Unified in aClideKernelInheritedWidget. - i18n (
app/lib/kernel/src/i18n/) — text-driven lookup ported from fframe'sL10n: namespaced JSON catalogs,string()/interpolated()calls with caller-supplied placeholders, and a proper locale fallback chain (exact → language → default-country → default-language → placeholder). Improves on fframe's design by adding the chain, which fframe lacks. - A11y from Tier 0 —
Semantics(label:, hint:, button:)on every interactive primitive;SemanticsBinding.ensureSemantics()at boot; atheme/contrast.darthelper exposes token pairs that the a11y suite walks for WCAG-AA compliance. - Extension contract (
app/lib/extension/) — abstractClideExtension, sealedContributionPointhierarchy (TabContribution,StatusItemContribution,ToolbarButtonContribution,CommandContribution,TrayItemContribution,LayoutPresetContribution). Each extension ships one manifest contributing N atoms into kernel slots. Priority-based ordering within a slot, dependency-aware activation, YAML manifest loader + scanner for~/.clide/extensions/. - Three-tier theme pipeline — palette (named colors) → semantic roles → ~60 VS-Code-style surface tokens, each layer with defaults so palette-only themes ship. Ported
summer-nightas the first bundled theme; muted value calibrated for WCAG-AA contrast. - Widget primitives (
app/lib/widgets/) —ClideSurface,ClideText,ClideButton,ClideTabBar,ClideDivider,ClideScrollbar,ClideTooltip,ClideIcon+ eightCustomPainter-rendered icons (folder, gear, x, chevron-left/right, dot, check, plug). All token-consuming, all Semantics-wrapped. - Tier 0 built-in extensions —
builtin.default-layout(classic three-column preset + reset command),builtin.welcome(workspace placeholder),builtin.ipc-status(live-region statusbar indicator),builtin.theme-picker(command + modal, bound toctrl+k). Plus 17 id-reserving stubs (builtin.claude,builtin.terminal,builtin.files,builtin.editor,builtin.git, ...) so later tiers can fill in without rename churn. - Lua runtime boundary —
app/lib/lua/ships as typed stubs (host,adapter,capability_api,render_intent) so third-party Lua extensions can plug in at Tier 6 without retrofitting.

Includestest/ipc/andtest/daemon/suites covering envelope parsing, the in-process server, and a subprocess smoke that verifies signal-driven shutdown + socket unlink. -
scripts/bazzite-flutter-setup.sh— one-shot installer for the Flutter SDK + desktop build deps on Bazzite / Fedora Silverblue. Drops the SDK under~/opt/flutter, wires PATH in the user's shell rc files, and layers the Linux desktop build deps viarpm-ostree install. -
ADR 0005 — Dart core; sidecar directory dissolved;
ptycas pql-peer. Establishes one Dart AOT binary for both CLI and daemon,lib/as the shared core, and promotes the C PTY helper to a standalone supporter tool on the same footing as pql. -
ADR 0006 — CLI and event surface contract. Defines the subsystem list (
pane,tab,editor,panel,tree,git,pql,canvas,graph,theme,settings,project), the command shape, the versioned JSON event schema, the pql-style exit-code contract, and the command↔event duality rule that operationalises user/Claude parity. -
Architectural decision records carried forward from the short-lived
claudianplugin project (discarded in favour of this Flutter rebuild): ADR 0001 — CLI-first, not MCP. ADR 0002 — Sidecar language: Go. ADR 0003 — pql as supporter tool; wrap, don't duplicate; pql is a Clide subsystem when present. ADR 0004 — Ignore file strategy (ignore_files:in.pql/config.yaml, layered). -
Pre-push quality gate:
.githooks/pre-pushrunsmake push-check(lint + test + test-race + test-integration + vuln + app-analyze + app-test) so bad pushes are caught locally before they hit Gitea. The app-side targets gracefully noop until Flutter is scaffolded. Install withmake hooks(setsgit config core.hooksPath .githooks); the hook prepends$GOBIN/$HOME/go/binto PATH so govulncheck resolves without the user touching their shell profile. -

docs/initial-plan.md— the north-star design document for the Flutter rebuild. Captures what we kept from Python Clide (pane model, git skills, Claude-always-visible), what we took from Obsidian (canvas and graph — no vault, no bases, no plugin inheritance), what Claudian's short experiment contributed (Go sidecar, CLI-first, pql-as-subsystem, ignore-file strategy), and the tier roadmap (Tier 0 app+sidecar handshake → Tier 5 canvas+graph). -
