* fix(search): wash a match in the accent, at a strength the theme can afford A search hit was washed from the terminal palette's selection colour at a fixed 1.45:1 against the background, so it read as a weaker selection on a grid that is already grey on grey — and 1.45:1 is under what a hairline is worth, spread over a whole cell. Two changes. The tint is now the theme's accent (`ActiveAccent`, already floored at 3:1 by `legible_accent`), which is the one colour the terminal surface has nothing else in. And the strength is derived per theme instead of fixed: the wash is opaque with the glyph drawn on top, so what it may spend is the theme's own text-contrast budget. A palette with 21:1 between text and background can afford a wash you cannot miss; one with 6.6:1 cannot, and a single constant has to be safe for the second. The current match drops its caret-coloured outline. That existed because a fill 2.1:1 off the background could not say "this one" on its own; now that it sits at the top of the theme's budget, the outline is the same colour saying the same thing twice. * fix(ui): let the overlay scrollbars fade out again macOS reports should_auto_hide_scrollbars() = false for anyone with a mouse plugged in, and apply_theme turned that into ScrollbarShow::Always for every list in the app. That preference is about legacy scrollbars, which take a gutter out of the layout; ours are overlay bars painted on top of the content, so Always parked an opaque bar over the switcher's tab column for as long as the panel stayed open, with nothing to fade it. Pin scrollbar_show to Scrolling instead, so every list fades its bar out after it stops scrolling. --------- Co-authored-by: l0ng-ai <24760907+l0ng-ai@users.noreply.github.com>
tty7
A terminal workbench: persistent sessions, remote work, agents.
Pure Rust · GPU rendering on Zed's gpui · VT core from Alacritty
English · 简体中文
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
