l0ng-ai 31e690cde7 feat(daemon): report panes the machine tree no longer references
With the tree now populated by clients' semantic operations, the daemon
can finally see panes nothing references. A periodic sweep reports them —
log-only, deliberately: an unreferenced pane is not proof of a leak (a
native-SSH pane opened inside a remote workspace's window runs in this
daemon while belonging to the other machine's tree), and reclaiming one
wrongly kills a session the user is looking at. The sweep's interval
doubles as a grace period: a pane is reported only after being
unreferenced across two consecutive looks, so an adoption still in
flight is never flagged. Reclamation can be layered on once the log has
shown the false-positive rate is zero.

Why

  • Fast — ~2× the throughput of Alacritty, Ghostty, or Kitty (benchmarks)
  • Sessions persist — quit or reboot; your shells keep running, no tmux
  • Editor-grade input — completion, syntax highlighting, history search built in; zero config for zsh, bash, fish, PowerShell
  • Agent-aware — recognizes Claude Code & co. in a pane: status, notifications, session resume

Install

Native builds for each platform 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 libs bundled

What's inside

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
Coding agents per-pane agent detection (~17 CLIs): status dot, notifications, branch + diff, resume after reboot, tray icon that signals "needs your input"
SSH native russh stack: profiles with keychain secrets, SFTP panel, port forwarding, jump hosts

Details for every row: docs/features.md. Keybindings: ⌘ , opens Settings — browse and remap everything, tmux preset included (full list).

Benchmarks

Same machine, same day, same 155×40 grid — Apple M1 Pro, macOS 26.3.1, five-run averages (2026-07-04):
