* fix(bundle): declare macOS TCC privacy keys for child processes tty7 currently ships no NS*UsageDescription keys and no data-access entitlements, so macOS falls back to a repeated "access other apps' data" prompt whenever a child process (shell, coding agent, mole, etc.) touches a protected folder such as ~/Library/Containers, Mail, Messages, or Calendar. kitty and Kaku both declare these privacy intents, which converts the prompt into a single, clear one-time grant. Add the folder/volume usage descriptions and the matching personal-information and device entitlements to the macOS bundle so the app behaves like its terminal peers. * fix(bundle): rework TCC usage strings per review - Correct problem statement: describe child-process-denied-without-prompt instead of the Full Disk Access framing (no NS*UsageDescription key exists for that class). - Add the full usage-string set (camera, microphone, contacts, calendars, reminders, photos, location, motion, local network, bluetooth, speech recognition, system administration, apple events), kitty-style wording. - Use macOS spellings: NSCalendarsFullAccessUsageDescription / NSRemindersFullAccessUsageDescription / NSLocationUsageDescription. - Drop every entitlement that has no matching usage string; keep only com.apple.security.automation.apple-events. - Restore trailing newline at EOF in bundle-macos.sh. - Document the Full Disk Access manual-grant requirement in docs/features.md. * docs: rewrite macOS privacy as feature notes (en + zh-CN) * fix(bundle): drop the apple-events entitlement, tidy the privacy docs The entitlement did not do what its comment claimed. Nothing in tty7 or in gpui's mac platform layer sends an Apple event, and it would not help the case this change is about either: the hardened-runtime automation check runs against the process actually sending the event, which is the pane's child carrying its own signature. What TCC reads off tty7.app is the usage string in Info.plist, which stays. Entitlements are per-executable and never inherited, so granting this one only widened what injected code could reach under an identity that already holds disable-library-validation. Docs: spell out the four Full Disk Access paths instead of running them together as one nested path, drop motion from the user-facing list (Core Motion has no macOS implementation, though the key stays for kitty parity), and place the section identically in the English and Chinese files. --------- 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
