Enable the Kitty keyboard protocol on terminal start to receive enhanced
key sequences that include modifier information. This fixes Shift+Enter
not working in Ghostty, Kitty, WezTerm, and other modern terminals.
Changes:
- Enable Kitty protocol on start (\x1b[>1u), disable on stop (\x1b[<u)
- Add centralized key definitions in packages/tui/src/keys.ts
- Support both legacy and Kitty sequences for all modifier+key combos:
- Shift+Enter, Alt+Enter for newlines
- Shift+Tab for thinking level cycling
- Ctrl+C, Ctrl+A, Ctrl+E, Ctrl+K, Ctrl+U, Ctrl+W, Ctrl+O, Ctrl+P, Ctrl+T
- Alt+Backspace for word deletion
- Export Keys constants and helper functions from @mariozechner/pi-tui
- Enable bracketed paste mode for handling large pastes
- Fix editor duplicate line rendering bug at terminal width
- Add padding support to Markdown component (paddingX/Y)
- Add Spacer component for vertical spacing
- Update chat-simple with spacers between messages
- Create Terminal interface abstracting stdin/stdout operations for dependency injection
- Implement ProcessTerminal for production use with process.stdin/stdout
- Implement VirtualTerminal using @xterm/headless for accurate terminal emulation in tests
- Fix TypeScript imports for @xterm/headless module
- Move all component files to src/components/ directory for better organization
- Add comprehensive test suite with async/await patterns for proper render timing
- Fix critical TUI differential rendering bug when components grow in height
- Issue: Old content wasn't properly cleared when component line count increased
- Solution: Clear each old line individually before redrawing, ensure cursor at line start
- Add test verifying terminal content preservation and text editor growth behavior
- Update tsconfig.json to include test files in type checking
- Add benchmark test comparing single vs double buffer performance
The implementation successfully reduces flicker by only updating changed lines
rather than clearing entire sections. Both TUI implementations maintain the
same interface for backward compatibility.
