l0ng-ai 05cdf17382 fix(scm): resolve the editor's repository on the file's own machine
`scm_editor_target` paired the focused buffer's path with `spawn_host`,
the window's own machine. That was true of every file the tree could
open, but an SFTP buffer carries a path from somewhere else: with
`/home/me/proj` probed on both boxes, the panel would resolve the remote
file against the *local* repository and open a `.git` watch on it —
another machine's branch and status, shown for this file. The two
sibling targets already take the host from wherever the path came from.

Also drop a claim the watcher comment could not keep: a host that cannot
watch has no external-change detection at all, not a save-time check.
There is no such check, and adding one needs a "keep mine" that survives
to the next save, which the conflict banner does not have.

tty7 with a tab sidebar of agent sessions across several repos, running Claude Code

Why

  • Performance — ~2× the throughput of Alacritty, Ghostty, or Kitty (benchmarks)
  • Persistent sessions — quit or reboot; your shells and supported agent sessions keep running, no tmux
  • Editor-grade input — suggestions, completion, highlighting, history search
  • Remote development — files, repos, panes, and git data stay on the remote machine
  • Native SSH — profiles, SFTP, port forwarding, and jump hosts
  • Agent-aware — Claude Code, Codex & co.: status, notifications, git context
  • CLI + Skills — agents create panes, run commands, and inspect output

Install

Native builds for macOS, Windows, and Linux on Releases:

macOS …-macos-arm64.dmg · …-x86_64.dmg drag into Applications
Windows …-setup.exe · portable ….zip
Linux …-x86_64.AppImage chmod +x and run — X11/Wayland libraries bundled

What's inside

Editor-grade input ghost suggestions from history · explained tab completion · syntax highlighting · multi-line editing · click places the caret · ⌃ R fuzzy history
Window tabs & splits · ⌘ P palette · ⌘ F scrollback search · nine themes · IME
Agent-aware per-pane detection (18 CLIs): status dot · notifications · branch + diff · resume after reboot · tray icon when input is needed
Remote workspaces remote files, repos, changes, diffs, worktrees, tabs, and panes · reconnect from any client and continue where you left off
CLI + Skills bundled tty7 CLI · agent skill · pane/workspace control · real PTY commands · output, process, port, and agent status
SSH native russh stack: profiles with keychain secrets · SFTP panel · port forwarding · jump hosts · one-time, unprivileged tty7-server install

Full documentation lives in docs/keyboard shortcuts · config.json · CLI reference. The agent-facing CLI interface is also documented in skills/tty7/SKILL.md.

Install the skill with:

npx skills add l0ng-ai/tty7    # install
npx skills update tty7         # update later
