* fix(ui): rebuild the keymap when a hand-edited binding reloads (#548) The config watcher reloaded locale, theme, menus and shells but never the keymap, so a hand-edited `keybindings` entry appeared in the settings list off the live global while the key itself stayed dead until restart — the settings page showed a binding gpui would never dispatch. Two changes make driving a rebind from the watcher safe. First the rebind clears before it binds: gpui `Keymap::add_bindings` only ever pushes — it never dedups and nothing retires a binding — so the old append-only rebind leaked one full table per call, and every keystroke walks the whole map. `rebuild_keymap` now replays the action bindings plus the fixed terminal/modal bindings onto a cleared map, and `init` shares it. Second the watcher gates on it. It fires for every write under the config dir — including the apps own `save()`, which a sidebar drag or a palette open triggers — so it compares the `(keybindings, keybinding_preset, prefix)` triple before and after the reload and only rebinds when a binding actually moved, keeping a no-op save from churning the keymap. Tests pin the triple only moving on a real binding change and the map not growing across repeated rebinds. Per the review this lands after #537 (the watcher keeping the old config on a parse failure): without that, a broken edit would swap in defaults and this rebind would then wipe the users keys from the live keymap too. The unknown-action surface and the prefix-conflict detection the review also scoped are follow-ups. * fix(ui): carry the inherited bindings through a keymap rebuild `rebuild_keymap` clears the whole map, and the map is not tty7's alone: `gpui_component::init` runs first and installs the `Input` context's editing table, the list and menu navigation and the escape that closes a dialog, with no entry point to install them a second time. Clearing and replaying only tty7's bindings dropped all of it — at `init`, so every text field in the app lost backspace, the arrows, enter and escape from the first frame, and the test that pinned the map's size could not see it because it measured after `init` had already cleared. Snapshot whatever is in the keymap before tty7 binds anything and lay it back down first on every rebuild, in the order it was added, so tty7's bindings still win. Drop the `BoundKeystrokes` global with them: the retire-one-`NoAction`-at-a-time path it fed is gone, and its last reader with it. --------- 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
