* feat(search): replace the command palette with tabbed Search Everywhere The palette was one flat list that every new kind of row had to be squeezed into: tabs and SSH hosts rode along as "Switch to Tab: …" and "SSH: …" commands, and the only way to narrow to one kind was a magic seed word. Search Everywhere splits it into sources behind one trait — All, Actions, Terminals, Hosts — each with its own empty-query layout and ranking. The All tab shows each source's top rows, ordered by best match, with a row that opens the full tab. Tab / Shift-Tab walk the tabs and keep the query. - Terminals lists every open tab of every workspace (reusing the switcher's tab rows) and jumps to it wherever it lives, plus the shells and agents. - Hosts replaces the separate "Add Connection" input: a typed address or full `ssh …` line offers to connect. - Fixes Return doing nothing after a search that found nothing, or when the search opens pre-filtered: gpui-component re-picks the row from a stale frame; the delegate now re-arms the first row. - Fixes `ssh -p 2222 me@box` being offered as a quick-connect address with user `ssh -p 2222 me`. The keymap action stays `TogglePalette` so custom bindings keep working. * feat(search): a Sessions tab to resume past agent sessions Search Everywhere gains a Sessions tab listing the Claude Code and Codex sessions on this computer, read from ~/.claude/projects and ~/.codex/sessions ($CODEX_HOME). Sessions that ran in the focused tab's directory lead; the All tab offers the last three of them before anything is typed. Return opens a new tab in the session's directory and runs the agent's resume command with its configured launch flags. - Only each transcript's head and tail are read, off the window thread, and cached by path, size and mtime: ~170ms cold for 50 sessions, under 1ms warm. The search opens on the cached list and fills in. - Titles: /rename name, then the agent's own title (ai-title, Codex's session_index.jsonl), then the first thing typed, skipping harness injections. Codex rollouts it ran for itself (subagent/internal) and sessions never asked anything are left out. - A session whose directory is gone is refused with a notice rather than resumed where the agent cannot find it.

Why
A background server owns your shells and panes — not the window. Everything below follows from that.
- 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
- Agent-aware — Claude Code, Codex & co.: status, notifications, and git context for every repo at once
- Scriptable by agents — one agent opens a pane for another, hands off a task, waits, and reads the result, with or without the GUI running
- Editor-grade input — suggestions, completion, highlighting, history search, with no plugin to install
- Remote development — files, repos, panes, and git data stay on the remote machine, over a native SSH stack

Supported agents
Detection is free: brand avatar, branch + diff, tab title.
Status takes one click under Settings → Integrations to install that agent's hook,
and brings the status dot, notifications, the tray icon, tty7 wait, and resume
after a reboot. Fork needs both — the agent's own fork command, and the hook
that tells tty7 which session to fork.

None of them are wrapped or proxied — the agent you start is the agent you get,
in a normal PTY, with its own interface. An agent launched through a wrapper
script can be mapped to one by name with agent_commands in config.json.
Every agent on your PATH is also a row in Search Everywhere (Agent: Claude Code, …)
that opens it in a new tab; agent_launch sets the command line it starts with.
