Amr Gharbeia 4e87cf6a03 v0.7.2: wire gate-trace-lines into view-chat — TDD
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)

Passepartout TUI — View

View

Pure render functions. Each takes a Croatoan window and current state. State is read via (st :key) — no mutation here.

Contract

  1. (view-status win): renders the status bar with connection info, msg count, scroll offset, rule counter, focus map (v0.4.0), and timestamp. Two lines: line 1 (status + rules), line 2 (focus + time).
  2. (view-chat win h): renders the scrolled chat message list. Takes window and available height. Messages are color-coded: green (user), white (agent), yellow (system).
  3. (view-input win): renders the input line with cursor and typing indicator.
  4. (redraw sw cw ch iw): dispatches redraws based on (st :dirty) flags (status, chat, input). Minimizes terminal writes.
  5. (char-width ch): returns the terminal column width of character CH. ASCII < 128 = 1. CJK, fullwidth, emoji = 2. Combining marks = 0. Tab = 8. Used by word-wrap for accurate line counting (v0.7.0).
  6. (view-status win): v0.7.0 — timestamp right-aligned at (- w 12) on line 2, focus info at :x 1. No overlap.

Status Bar

The status bar, as of v0.4.0, renders Passepartout's three differentiator visualizations — data only available because of the deterministic gate architecture:

  • Rule counter (Rules:N): the number of pending HITL actions from the Dispatcher's *hitl-pending* hash table. The user watches this tick up as they teach the agent their preferences through approve/deny decisions.
  • Focus map ([Focus: <id>]): the foveal focus from the daemon's signal context. Shows the user what the agent is currently looking at.
  • Gate trace (not rendered in status bar — attached to individual messages via :gate-trace field for future collapsible rendering per message).

All three enrichments cost 0 LLM tokens — they are daemon-state queries that the TUI actuator attaches to the response plist before transmission.
