l0ng-ai 382a46ac29 refactor(server): retire the opaque workspace record store
Clients stopped sending WorkspaceList/Get/Put/Delete when the tree
migration landed, so the coexistence scaffolding comes out:

- core::workspace_store is deleted. Attachment and the data-directory
  resolution (TTY7_DATA_DIR, XDG fallback chain) move into
  core::machine, which was already their only consumer; Attachment
  loses its vestigial serde derives (it never crosses disk or wire).
- The control dialect drops the four record verbs, the ReplyOk::Json
  payload they answered with, and the WorkspaceChanged event. Their
  serde names (and the workspace-store capability bit) are recorded as
  burned rather than reserved by any mechanism — the dialect has no
  numbered slots to hold, so a comment at each site is the guard, plus
  the handshake test asserting the bit never reappears.
- host::server loses Services.workspaces, the verb arms, the
  per-connection store subscription and its WorkspaceChanged forwarder,
  and the store half of attach/detach/teardown. Attachment data now
  lives solely in the tree: a workspace the tree does not list records
  no data half (the registry's live handles still move, so takeover
  behaviour is unchanged), and it appears the moment the workspace
  does. Services::with_workspaces/and_machine collapse into
  with_machine; control_services becomes a single match.
- The attach/takeover tests move onto MachineStore wholesale, attaching
  to workspaces created in a real tree; the record-store round-trip and
  fan-out tests go (tests/machine_tree.rs has carried the tree
  equivalents since the verbs landed), and tests/workspace_store.rs is
  deleted with the serde_json dev-dependency that existed only for it.
  machine.rs gains the two guarantees the old suite held uniquely: an
  attachment dies with its workspace structurally, and the default path
  resolution ends at the documented file.
- The GUI's dead WorkspaceChanged arm and every stale doc reference go.

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
