EditorController mirrors the daemon's active buffer into the Flutter
UI. Hydrates on mount (editor.active → editor.read), subscribes to
editor.opened / active-changed / edited / saved / closed, and pushes
local edits back via editor.set-content. A one-shot echo-suppression
flag keeps the daemon's authoritative edit echo from clobbering the
caret the user just moved.
Text surface is EditableText directly — no TextField / Material
import, so D-007's "bare WidgetsApp" guardrail carries into the
editor tab. JetBrainsMono via the shared mono-family constants;
cursor + selection colours come from the theme tokens.
File-tree click now calls ipc.request('editor.open', {path}) instead
of the kernel command registry (which wouldn't have reached the
daemon). The opened file becomes active, the editor tab's controller
sees editor.active-changed, and the text content reconciles.
Linux release bundle still builds; 174 app tests + 74 core tests
stay green.

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) andclide --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.
