update decisions/ → governance/ refs after D-21 migration
Stale path references from the move in 63195d1:
- CLAUDE.md: 8 D-record links, the layout tree, the open-questions
  pointer, all rewritten to governance/.
- docs/design/multitab-pane.md + docs/claude-design/README.md:
  cross-references updated.
- lib/clide.dart: doc-comment refs.
- lib/builtin/problems: user-facing message string.
- Makefile: decisions-validate target docstring.

Note: lib/builtin/decisions/ (the in-app decisions panel package)
keeps its name — it's a feature name, not a filesystem-path mirror.

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 over SCM_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/.
