Complete rewrite of the TUI with warm amber/gold color palette and
clean three-zone layout (chat top, input bottom, status very bottom).
1. Layout restructure: input at y=h-3, hint at y=h-2, status at y=h-1
2. Warm palette: 20-key amber/gold theme, 8 warm presets
3. Readline keybindings: Ctrl+A/E/U/W/K/Y/L/D/F/G in :global keymap
4. Chat messages: user boxes (┌─└─), agent headers, collapsible tools
5. Command palette: Ctrl+P top-centered overlay, warm colors
6. Sidebar: Ctrl+B toggle, right panel with focus/rules/context/MCP
7. Keybindings: :ctrl+x, :?, mouse wheel support
8. Search: existing /search with match highlighting
9. Help overlay: ? shows keybinding and command reference
- Add missing word-wrap function (was declared in contract but never defined)
- TUI now renders correctly: draw-text on framebuffer arrays works
- Daemon connection verified
- All three view functions (status, chat, input) call draw-text correctly
- Remove dead croatoan-to-tty-event keymap dispatch clause from on-key
- Replace all (st :key) with (getf *state* :key) and all
(setf (st :key) val) with (setf (getf *state* :key) val)
to avoid SBCL cross-file SETF expander issues (239 replacements)
- Fix redraw arity: called with 4 args but defined with 3
- TUI now loads, initializes, and connects to daemon successfully
- Replace numeric key code dispatch with cl-tty keyword events
- Replace Croatoan code-key/key-name normalization with direct keyword dispatch
- Update main loop to construct Ctrl-key keywords from cl-tty key-event modifiers
- Remove croatoan-to-tty-event compatibility shim and its test
- Remove duplicate Esc handling from main loop (now handled by on-key)
- Update all documentation contracts, prose, docstrings to remove Croatoan refs
- Remove :croatoan from package dependencies
- All event handling now goes through cl-tty keymaps or keyword dispatch
v0.8.0: Information Radiator now built on cl-tty v1.1.0. Minibuffer
uses cl-tty Dialog stack. New TODO items: conversation view (ScrollBox
+ Markdown), command palette (Select), sidebar (slot system), status bar
(Box + Theme), keybindings (keymap).
v0.9.1: Emacs is now an optional secondary client, not the primary
bridge. cl-tty is the primary TUI.
Bug fixes:
- Fix box() calls: set color-pair before box, pass ACS default chtype integers
- Fix markdown functions: move to passepartout.channel-tui package where
Croatoan is imported; use add-attributes/remove-attributes instead of
:bold/:underline kwargs to add-string; call theme-color in gate-trace-lines
to convert theme keys to Croatoan colors
- Fix sandbox: remove dex:get/dex:post from restricted symbols
(blocked neuro-provider from loading)
- Export *log-lock* from passepartout (was unbound in jailed skill packages)
- Fix configure: always deploy to XDG, skip cp when source==dest
- Fix bash crash handler format string (~~ escaping)
- Revert test reorder in 28 files (caused package leakage in skill loader)
Design cleanup:
- Extract tui-run-screen from tui-main for clean separation
- Remove inject-stimulus alias
- Merge *backend-registry* into *probabilistic-backends*
- Fix read-framed-message whitespace DoS (4096-iteration max)
- Add *read-eval* nil to dispatcher-approvals-process read-from-string
Search mode activated by /search <query>. State fields: :search-mode,
:search-query, :search-matches, :search-match-idx. Up/Down arrows
navigate between matches, Enter jumps to current match, Escape exits.
search-highlight wraps matching substrings in **bold** for markdown
rendering. View-chat shows search header bar with match count and
current position.
- channel-tui-state: 4 search state fields in init-state
- channel-tui-main: modified /search handler, search-mode key handlers
(Up/Down/Enter/Escape), 3 new tests (activate, escape, nav)
- channel-tui-view: search-highlight fn, search header bar,
highlighted content in count+render loops
- TUI Main: 97/98 (1 pre-existing flake) View: 29/29
resolve-hitl-panel marks the most recent panel message with
:panel-resolved (:approved or :denied) and writes back to
the message vector. View-chat renders resolved panels with
dimmed color instead of :hitl theme color.
/approve and /deny handlers call resolve-hitl-panel after
sending structured events to the daemon. Confirmation messages
now use checkmark/crossmark prefixes.
- channel-tui-main: resolve-hitl-panel fn, wired into handlers
- channel-tui-view: is-resolved check for panel dimming
- +2 tests: panel-after-approve, panel-after-deny
- TUI Main: 88/89 (1 pre-existing flake)
Gate trace lines rendered below each agent message in dim color.
Collapsed-gates state field for Tab toggle (default: visible).
Uses passepartout::gate-trace-lines for colored entries.
- channel-tui-view: view-chat renders gate-trace after message content
- channel-tui-state: :collapsed-gates field in init-state
- View tests: 29/29 (1 new state-field test)
char-width: contract 5, 4 tests (6 assertions), 100% pass
ASCII=1, CJK/Hangul/Kana/halfwidth=2, combining marks=0, tab=8
Pure Lisp, ~25 lines, no deps. Used by word-wrap for unicode.
status bar: contract 6, timestamp right-aligned at (- w 12)
Fixes overlap where focus map and timestamp both drew at :y 2 :x 1
