Press Enter while busy with a draft to queue it; with no draft to interrupt
and send the next queued turn. Auto-drains one queued turn each time the
session settles, same as Cursor. Queue persists across reloads so an
interrupted-and-queued turn isn't lost on refresh.
Each queued row supports edit-in-composer (with explicit Save/Cancel),
send-now (↑), and delete. Drain skips only the entry currently being
edited so the rest of the queue keeps flowing.
Queue dequeue is transactional — an entry only leaves the queue after
`prompt.submit` is accepted, so a rejected submit doesn't drop the turn.
Also shrinks the `[interrupted]` marker to a muted one-liner and drops
its assistant footer so it stops looking like a real reply.
- chat-messages: match tool rows by overlapping query/context/preview values
so preview-first `tool.progress` rows reliably adopt later stable-id
`tool.start` payloads instead of spawning ghost rows or mis-merging
parallel same-name calls; preserve prior args/result across phases.
- tui_gateway: emit full args + parsed result on `tool.start` / `tool.complete`,
drop redundant `tool.started` re-emit from `tool.progress`.
- electron/main: prefer SOURCE_REPO_ROOT before PATH `hermes` in dev so
local backend edits actually run; split hardening helpers into
`electron/hardening.cjs` with tests.
- thread/tool UI: one-shot enter animation keyed by stable ids, braille
spinner for running rows, Cursor-like disclosure rows, drill-down +
duration/count formatting via new tool-fallback-model.
- composer: extract `text-utils`, drop liquid-glass overrides.
- right-rail: split preview-pane into preview-console / preview-file.
- runtime: incremental external-store runtime + runtime-readiness gate;
onboarding store + tests; route-resume hook test.
- regression tests for live tool reconciliation (parallel tools, id-less
progress, preview-first rows, structured args/results).
- Hoist todo to first-class widget (shadcn checkboxes, brand colors, no
tool-accordion). Header derives label from active task; non-active rows fade.
- Replace raw JSON dumps with structured key/value summaries via
formatToolResultSummary; nested error extraction for clearer failures.
- Fix loaded-session grouping: stitch interleaved assistant/tool iterations
into one bubble instead of orphaned synthetic messages.
- Stable tool/thinking timers via keyed registry so unmount/scroll doesn't
reset elapsed counts; gate "running" on real live thread state.
- Reorganize chat-only assistant-ui components under components/chat/.
The composer rendered {input} inside two different parent fragments
depending on `stacked`. When auto-expand flipped `stacked` (e.g. the
moment typed text wrapped past two lines), React reconciled the two
branches as different positions and unmounted/remounted the
contenteditable. The fresh mount started empty, so any in-flight
characters — most reliably reproduced by holding a key — were lost.
Replace the conditional with a single CSS Grid whose template-areas
swap on `stacked`. The three children (menu, input, controls) keep
stable identities across the toggle; only their grid placement
changes, which the browser handles without React tearing down the
editor.
Solid foreground-on-background send/voice-conversation circle (black-on-white
in light, white-on-black in dark) anchors the right edge as the primary CTA
instead of the orange theme primary. Bumps the primary control to 2.125rem so
it visually outranks the ghost mic/plus controls. Opens up the surface padding
(0.625rem x / 0.5rem y) so the input row breathes around its controls, and
nudges the corner radius from 20 to 24px for a slightly pill-ier silhouette.
LiquidGlass distortion is preserved.
