#799 landed first and rebuilt the overlay as one virtualised `gpui::list` of flat rows, deleting the card, the hunk nesting and the three row builders this branch had hung the drag on. The selection is re-applied onto that model rather than rebuilt beside it. **Where a row is.** `DiffRow::Split`/`Unified` now carry a `RowAt` — the file's path and the `RowId { hunk, row }` the range is keyed on. The list index is deliberately *not* that key: `resync_list` splices only the rows between a shared prefix and suffix, so collapsing a file above the selection moves every index below it, and a range keyed on those would go on naming the same slots while the code under them changed. `RowAt::path` is a `SharedString` so one rides on every line of a patch for a refcount bump. **Where the selection is read.** `diff_rows_list` clones it into a `Drag` once a frame and the list's item builder reads that. It stays out of `RowsKey` on purpose: a selection changes what a row looks like, not which rows there are, so a step of a drag notifies, re-renders the rows on screen, and never re-flattens the patch — `gpui::list` calls its item builder for every visible row on each layout pass, so the highlight is current without the key knowing anything about it. **Where the menu is.** `diff_file_card` was the old host and is gone. Copy Selected Lines now hangs on the selected rows themselves. The overlay root was the other candidate and is not usable: the header already carries `document_header_menu`, and gpui-component's context menu opens on a bubbling right-press without stopping propagation, so two of them over one click would open two popups. The padding-cell fix from 87dc26f0..f7fd1d43 is carried across: a blank half of a split row takes the same press and move listeners as any other cell, and the selection colour when the range covers it. Also drops `HunkRows::len`/`is_empty`, which only the deleted card body called. Tests: the drag suite moves to `selection_gpui_tests` and drives the same cases against the new state, including the upward drag; two new `diff_list` tests pin the coordinates a row carries — that they name the patch rather than the list, and that they survive a collapse above them.
tty7
A terminal workbench: persistent sessions, remote work, agents.
Pure Rust · GPU rendering on Zed's gpui · VT core from Alacritty

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
- Git beside the terminal — source control, diffs, and worktrees without leaving the window

What's inside
| Agent-aware | per-pane detection (19 CLIs) · status dot · notifications · branch + diff · tray icon when input is needed · resume after reboot · tab sidebar grouped by repository |
| CLI + Skills | bundled tty7 CLI · agent skill · run streams a command and exits with its code · split · send · wait --until free · capture |
| 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 · ⌘ J panel with process tree and listening ports · 13 themes, your own YAML, iTerm2 import · IME |
| Shell integration | injected when a pane starts, nothing to install · prompt marks · working directory · exit codes · command-finished notifications · zsh, bash, fish, PowerShell, WSL, remote panes |
| Remote workspaces | remote files, repos, changes, diffs, worktrees, tabs, and panes · reconnect from any client and continue where you left off |
| SSH | native russh stack: profiles with keychain secrets · SFTP panel · port forwarding · jump hosts · one-time, unprivileged tty7-server install |
| Git | panel follows the focused pane · stage, commit, amend, branch, push, stash · side-by-side or unified diffs · commit graph with cherry-pick, revert, and reset · a new worktree opens its own tab |
Supported agents
Detection is free: brand avatar, branch + diff, tab title.
Status takes one click under Settings → Agents 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.
