l0ng-aiandl0ng-ai 3c0a700907 feat(switcher): flat workspace list, create form, connect-time workspace sync (#616)
* feat(switcher): flatten the workspace list, add a create form, sync remote listings on connect

The switcher's left column is now one flat most-recently-used list across
all machines, each row carrying its machine and link state; the per-machine
tree, headers, and the Other Machines band are gone. Machine trouble
(install progress, connect errors, parked routes) moves to contextual
banners under the list, and machine verbs move into each row's menu.

Cmd+Shift+N now opens a create form instead of silently swapping the
workspace: a name prefilled with the usual generated codename, and a host
combobox (searchable dropdown) defaulting to this computer. Creating on a
machine with no live link connects first and completes when the link is up.

Connecting to a machine also mirrors its workspace listing into the local
store, so its workspaces survive a restart without a connection. Mirrored
references are marked synced: launch restore skips them, and their clock
follows the machine only until this client opens them.

* fix(switcher): drop a parked create when its machine's connect is called off

Disconnect clears the in-flight connect, so finish_connect never runs and
the PendingCreate outlived the intent behind it: the next successful
connect to that machine would have silently created a workspace nobody
was waiting for anymore.

English · 简体中文


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 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 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
