Lift docs/ADRs/0001-0006 into decisions/: 0001 → D-001 (CLI-first, not MCP) 0002 → R-002 (Go sidecar; superseded by D-005) 0003 → D-003 (pql as supporter tool; wrap, don't duplicate) 0004 → D-004 (ignore file strategy) 0005 → D-005 (Dart core; sidecar dissolved; ptyc as pql-peer) 0006 → D-006 (CLI and event surface contract) ADR 0006's trailing open-questions footer migrates to questions-architecture.md as Q-001 / Q-002 / Q-003 (already landed in the scaffold commit). Titles preserved verbatim; cross-references updated to the new anchor-link style. docs/ADRs/ deleted — originals remain in git history. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.
