l0ng-ai f3ead2fb53 fix(settings): give the SSH form its own wrapping row
The SSH page spends 500px on a nav column and a host list before its form
gets any width, so its rows run out of room while every other page still
has plenty. Wrapping the control onto a second line is the right answer
there — and the wrong one everywhere else, which is why turning it on for
`settings_row` had to be reverted: a wrapping flex line is sized by its
widest item, and descriptions like "Tab at the prompt opens tty7's
completion menu…" measure wider than the pane, so those rows stopped
wrapping and ran out past their own row instead.

`settings_row_wrapping` is now opt-in and used by the fourteen rows on the
SSH page. `settings_row` is untouched, so Input, Terminal, Window & Tabs,
Agents, Keybindings and About keep exactly the layout they had.

Checked at 1200px: side by side, Save and Connect whole, all six auth
methods including 2FA on screen.

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
