The GUI now dials this machine's own daemon over the control dialect, exactly as it does a remote one: one machine, one daemon, one control link. The link lives in its own global rather than RemoteConnections — inserting it there would register a wire-backed Host for this machine (local files and git must keep going through the in-process LocalHost) and would break the HostId::LOCAL-never-holds-a-control-connection invariant. No routing either: the daemon's control socket is right here, so connecting is a Unix connect plus a ControlHello. Supervised on its own forever loop at the remote pump's cadence, because that pump deliberately parks when the last remote workspace closes and a purely local session is the common case. Each turn also drains the shared control-event queue, so local pushes (Layout deltas, Preempted) are delivered under HostId::LOCAL even with the remote pump stopped; the observer install is shared with the remote supervisor so whichever comes up first, reader threads never find nobody listening. Reconnects ride the same 1/2/4/…/30s backoff a remote machine gets, with ensure_running first — the daemon is the GUI's own child, and a cold start legitimately races its listener. Unix-only like the control listener it dials; on Windows the loop compiles to a supervision no-op and the pane path is untouched.
tty7
A terminal workbench: shells, sessions, SSH, coding agents.
Pure Rust · GPU rendering on Zed's gpui · VT core from Alacritty
English · 简体中文
Why
- Fast — ~2× the throughput of Alacritty, Ghostty, or Kitty (benchmarks)
- Sessions persist — quit or reboot; your shells keep running, no tmux
- Editor-grade input — completion, syntax highlighting, history search built in; zero config for zsh, bash, fish, PowerShell
- Agent-aware — recognizes Claude Code & co. in a pane: status, notifications, session resume
