l0ng-ai c1b5cc45ab fix(palette): stop showing recent commands twice, and keep frecency once you type

The zero-query list pushed a Recent section and then pushed every group
that contained those same commands, so the five rows you use most were
the five rows the list showed twice. Promoting to Recent now moves a
command rather than cloning it, and a group left empty by that drops its
header with it.

Ranking also threw frecency away the moment a character was typed —
ordered by usage at zero query, ordered purely by fuzzy score after
that, so the command someone runs every day stopped floating exactly
when they started reaching for it. A bounded log bonus (0..=24, against
16 points per matched character) now rides along with the match score:
enough to separate two comparable matches, not enough to let a
well-worn command outrank a plainly better one.

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

Install

Native builds for each platform on Releases:


macOS	`…-macos-arm64.dmg` · `…-x86_64.dmg`	drag into Applications
Windows	`…-setup.exe` · portable `….zip`
Linux	`…-x86_64.AppImage`	`chmod +x` and run — X11/Wayland libraries bundled

What's inside


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 · nine themes · IME
Agent-aware	per-pane detection (~17 CLIs): status dot · notifications · branch + diff · resume after reboot · tray icon when input is needed
Remote workspaces	remote files, repos, changes, diffs, worktrees, tabs, and panes · reconnect from any client and continue where you left off
CLI + Skills	bundled `tty7` CLI · agent skill · pane/workspace control · real PTY commands · output, process, port, and agent status
SSH	native russh stack: profiles with keychain secrets · SFTP panel · port forwarding · jump hosts · one-time, unprivileged `tty7-server` install

Terminal and keybinding reference: docs/features.md. The agent-facing CLI interface is documented in skills/tty7/SKILL.md.

Benchmarks

Same machine, same day, same 155×40 grid — Apple M1 Pro, macOS 26.3.1, five-run averages (2026-07-04):

	tty7	Alacritty	Ghostty	Kitty
Plaintext I/O — 11 MB `cat` _{(lower = better)}	95 ms	239 ms	179 ms	185 ms
DOOM-fire frame rate _{(higher = better)}	888 fps	485 fps	552 fps	617 fps
Cold-launch memory	116 MB¹	105 MB	128 MB	130 MB

_{¹ GUI 105 MB + the persistent server 11 MB.}
