* fix(remote): let a WSL machine restart its server, and call it "server" in zh The machine menu offered "restart server" only when `target.is_ssh()`, so a WSL distro's row had just "new workspace" and "disconnect" — and the router refused the action for anything but SSH, even though `restart_wsl_daemon` had been sitting in `install/wsl.rs` unused since it was written. A distro's server is installed and launched from this computer exactly like an SSH one; only the transport differs. - `RemoteTarget::hosts_our_server()` replaces `is_ssh()` as the gate in the sidebar menu and in `restart_window_daemon`. A `--stdio` workspace still has nothing to restart: it is whatever program the user named. - The router grows WSL arms for both actions — `RestartServer` relaunches the distro's daemon, `ReplaceServer` (new `replace_wsl_server`) publishes the bundled binary first. The mismatch dialog's "update server" used to be a dead end on WSL for the same reason. - `AppRestartServerNotSsh` is now `AppRestartServerNoServer`: the message no longer talks about SSH, since the only machine it can fire for is a local `--stdio` one. The Chinese table called tty7's server 服务器 / 服务器端 / 后台服务; it now says `server`, the way it already keeps `shell`, `pane` and `agent` in English. The macOS Services menu keeps its 服务. * fix(i18n): keep 服务器 where it means the SSH host, and test the new gate The sweep that renamed tty7's own server to `server` in the Chinese table also caught two SSH settings where 服务器 was never tty7's server: the host-key description talks about the key of each machine being connected to, and the banner switch suppresses the login banner sshd prints. Written as `server` both now read as if tty7 ran something there, which is exactly the confusion the rest of the sweep removes. Put the Chinese word back in those two. `hosts_our_server()` is the gate the whole change hangs on and nothing exercised it, while the test next door still asserted under the name "only SSH machines have a server to restart" — the rule this branch retires. Name that test after what it actually checks, the transport, and add one for the new predicate. It matches on the variants rather than negating a single one, so a transport added later has to say for itself whether we can restart what is on the far end. --------- 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
