- Skip trailing whitespace before deleting word (readline behavior)
- Make word navigation grapheme-aware using Intl.Segmenter
- Add Ctrl+Left/Right and Alt+Left/Right word navigation to Input
- Accept full Unicode input while rejecting control characters (C0/C1/DEL)
- Extract shared utilities to utils.ts (getSegmenter, isWhitespaceChar, isPunctuationChar)
- Fix unsafe cast in Editor.forceFileAutocomplete with runtime type check
- Add comprehensive tests for word deletion and navigation
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
Editor text wrapping now uses grapheme-aware width calculation instead
of string length. Fixes crash when pasting text containing emojis like
✅ or CJK characters that are 2 terminal columns wide.
- ANSI codes now attach to next visible content, not trailing whitespace
- Rewrote AnsiCodeTracker to track individual attributes
- Line-end resets only turn off underline, preserving background colors
- Added vitest config to exclude node:test files
fixes#109
Browse previously submitted prompts using Up/Down arrow keys, similar to
shell history and Claude Code's prompt history feature.
- Up arrow when editor is empty: browse to older prompts
- Down arrow when browsing: return to newer prompts or clear editor
- Cursor movement within multi-line history entries supported
- History is session-scoped, stores up to 100 entries
- Consecutive duplicates are not added to history
Includes 15 new tests for history navigation behavior.
- Add Ctrl+W for word deletion (stops at whitespace/punctuation)
- Add Ctrl+U for delete to start of line (merges with previous line at col 0)
- Change Ctrl+K from delete entire line to delete to end of line (merges with next line at EOL)
- Add Option+Backspace support in Ghostty (maps to Ctrl+W via ESC+DEL sequence)
- Cmd+Backspace in Ghostty works as Ctrl+U (terminal sends same control code)
- Update README and CHANGELOG with new keyboard shortcuts
Fixes#2, Fixes#3
- Add generateDiffString() function in edit tool to create unified diffs with line numbers and 4 lines of context
- Store only the formatted diff string in tool result details instead of full file contents
- Update tool-execution renderer to parse and colorize the diff string
- Filter out message_update events from session saving to prevent verbose session files
- Add markdown nested list and table rendering tests
- Remove old TUI implementation and components (LoadingAnimation, MarkdownComponent, TextComponent, TextEditor, WhitespaceComponent)
- Rename components-new to components with new API (Loader, Markdown, Text, Editor, Spacer)
- Move Text and Input components to separate files in src/components/
- Add render caching to Text component (similar to Markdown)
- Add proper ANSI code handling in Text component using stripVTControlCharacters
- Update coding-agent to use new TUI API (requires ProcessTerminal, uses custom Editor subclass for key handling)
- Remove old test files, keep only chat-simple.ts and virtual-terminal.ts
- Update README.md with new minimal API documentation
- Switch from tsc to tsgo for type checking
- Update package dependencies across monorepo
- Paste markers now show line count: [paste #1 +50 lines]
- Update replacement logic to handle both old and new marker formats
- Provides better visibility into paste size
- Add paddingX and paddingY support to Text component (default 1, 1)
- Fix padding calculation bug in both Text and Markdown
- Right padding now correctly fills to terminal width
- Remove unused Spacer import from chat-simple
- 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
- Implemented new renderLineBased method that properly handles scrollback boundaries
- Fixed ANSI code preservation in MarkdownComponent line wrapping
- Added comprehensive test to reproduce and verify the fix
- Root cause: PARTIAL rendering strategy couldn't position cursor in scrollback
- Solution: Component-agnostic line comparison with proper viewport boundary handling
Fixed rendering artifact where duplicate bottom borders appeared when components
dynamically shifted positions (e.g., Ctrl+C in agent clearing status container).
Root cause: Container wasn't reporting as "changed" when cleared (0 children),
causing differential renderer to skip re-rendering that area.
Solution: Container now tracks previousChildCount and reports changed when
child count changes, ensuring proper re-rendering when containers are cleared.
- Added comprehensive test reproducing the layout shift artifact
- Fixed Container to track and report child count changes
- All tests pass including new layout shift artifact test
- Add header with slash command and file autocomplete instructions
- Add initial welcome message with detailed feature descriptions
- Import TextComponent for the header
- Make it clearer how to use all the demo features
- Move chat application example to test/chat-app.ts
- Move multi-component layout example to test/multi-layout.ts
- Update README to reference example files instead of inline code
- Add proper exit handlers (Ctrl+C) to all examples
- Simplify README by reducing inline code examples
- renderDifferential now correctly handles content that exceeds viewport
- When changes are above viewport, do full re-render with scrollback clear
- When changes are in viewport, do partial re-render from change point
- All tests pass, correctly preserves 100 items in scrollback
- Issue: Still re-renders too much (entire tail from first change)
- 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.
- Set up npm workspaces for three packages: pi-tui, pi-agent, and pi (pods)
- Implemented dual TypeScript configuration:
- Root tsconfig.json with path mappings for development and type checking
- Package-specific tsconfig.build.json for clean production builds
- Configured lockstep versioning with sync script for inter-package dependencies
- Added comprehensive documentation for development and publishing workflows
- All packages at version 0.5.0 ready for npm publishing
