l0ng-aiandl0ng-ai b7196ae49a Give the side panel's Info tab rows that do what they show (#531)
* feat(right-panel): give the Info tab rows that do what they show

The panel's Session table rendered every fact the same inert way, and its
two actions sat in a strip of their own under the whole list — unlabelled,
four rows below the path they acted on. Rows now carry their own shape:
`changes` is the sidebar's green-and-red `+N −M` and opens the same diff
overlay under the same setting, an agent wears the same status dot its tab
does, and what a row can do appears at the end of it on hover, in the strip
Source Control rows already use. A port row hands over its address instead
of leaving it to be retyped, and the lit panel tile closes the panel the way
every other activity bar does.

* fix(right-panel): answer for the row the pointer is actually on

Review of #531 found the new rows promising more than they could keep.

Port rows keyed their element id on the port alone, but a port is only
unique with its pid — a pre-forking server puts one row per worker on
screen, and gpui handed them a single interactive state, so a click on
one lit the tooltip and the pressed fill on all of them.

The `changes` counts were read off `Tab::git_status`, which resolves a
split tab to its *first* leaf, while the click target came from
`detail_pane`, which resolves it to the *last focused* one. Inert text
could disagree harmlessly; a button could not, and clicking `+2 −0`
opened another pane's repository. Both now come from the pane the rest
of the rows describe.

A port is only `localhost` if localhost reaches it. `lsof`'s bind
address was parsed and dropped, so a server on `172.17.0.1:8080` was
offered as `localhost:8080` — a refused connection, or somebody else's
service. `PortEntry` carries the address (`serde(default)`, so an older
daemon still answers), and the wildcard and loopback binds keep the
`localhost` spelling anyone would type.

The browser tile hung off `remote_context()` — where the *shell* is —
though the ports come from the pane's own process tree either way. It
hid the tile on the one pane where it works, a `ssh -L` forward listening
on this machine. It is about the host now.

The action strip is opaque and pinned to the row's right edge, so on the
working-directory row it covered the leaf that the head-first elision
exists to preserve. The value holds that width back for good rather than
on hover: taking it on hover would re-elide the path under the pointer,
which is the pixel-shifting the strip is absolutely positioned to avoid.

Also: the counts were `flex_1`, so the whole rest of the line was the
button and empty space underlined numbers it was nowhere near; the agent
pip was pinned in pixels inside rem-sized text and slid off its line at
any interface scale but 100%, and drew Waiting as a thin ring where the
tab strip punches a hole in a filled dot — one rule, two dialects; the
panel-toggle chrome tile, which on macOS lives inside the panel it
closes, still dropped focus into the destroyed element and left ⌘J
dead; and `scm/detail.rs` kept a third copy of `ROW_INSET`.

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
