CLI: Managed screen by default, selection, copy, and feedback that moves nothing - #280
Merged
Conversation
Three design documents covering the direction for the interactive CLI: moving it off inline scrollback rendering onto a fully-managed alternate screen. - CLI Managed Screen — the design. Measured against dive v1.27.0 and wonton v0.0.39. Its two load-bearing findings: a naive port costs ~50 ms/frame at 200 messages against a 33 ms budget, so message-level virtualization is a constraint rather than a later optimization; and application code cannot build an exact viewport on its own, because wonton's View interface is sealed. Includes the wonton additions that follow from that, and the copy/selection design that has to replace what the terminal stops providing. - CLI Real-Terminal Testing — a harness driving the real binary in a real iTerm2 window with OS-level input and screen capture. Phase 0 spikes were run and answered all six open questions plus seven the plan had not anticipated, several of which corrected the design. - CLI Direction: Phased Plan — the execution plan sequencing both, with the six open decisions resolved, dependencies stated, and kill criteria. No code changes; these are proposals. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NuEDVHDB7qbmhq6JChZZXK
Phase 1 of docs/design/cli-direction-plan.md: the frame hygiene and single render path the managed screen needs, entirely within the inline app. The status line called detectGitBranch from View() — a `git rev-parse` fork ~5 ms deep, thirty times a second, a sixth of the frame budget spent before a cell was drawn. It is now cached, refreshed on a 5 s tick and at turn boundaries. Nothing reachable from LiveView() shells out any more. messageView/textMessageView/toolCallView (live, plain text) and the *Static family (scrollback, markdown) become one messageView(msg, viewOpts). The two had already drifted: the static user-message branch was dead, and assistant prose rendered as markdown in scrollback but as plain wrapped text live. opts carries the only two things that genuinely differ — whether a running tool call's marker pulses, and whether a tool result is expanded. The 36 runner.Print sites become appends. Everything the CLI shows is now a message in a.messages: `notice` for dim one-liners, `report` for a command's pre-built view, plus the roles that already existed. Inline mode prints each message to scrollback as it is finalized, exactly as before — an `emitted` flag per message replaces the "print from the last user message" scan. Background goroutines post notices through the event loop rather than writing to the terminal directly. The five sites that mutate a message in place now call touch(i), which bumps a Rev counter. In Phase 4 it also invalidates the viewport's render cache. app.runner becomes a uiRunner interface (SendEvent, Stop) with the inline runner's Print/ClearScrollback behind a separate scrollbackWriter that the managed screen will leave nil. Tests drive a recording fake instead of a real InlineApp. BenchmarkView200 records the pre-migration number: 11 ms and 22 MB allocated per frame at 200 messages, against a 5 ms / 2 MB target. That is the O(transcript) cost virtualization has to remove. Also fixes a nil-pointer panic in /clear when no session store is configured.

The CLI can now render the conversation as application state in the alternate screen instead of handing each finished message to the terminal's scrollback. It is opt-in behind --screen / DIVE_SCREEN=1; the inline renderer is untouched beside it and still the default. What it buys: a transcript that reflows on resize, streams markdown in place, and scrolls with the wheel, PgUp/PgDn, Ctrl+Home/End, Home/End on an empty input, and Esc when idle. What it costs is the terminal's own scrollback, which is why it stays opt-in for now. The transcript is a virtualized viewport, so a frame costs a screenful rather than the whole conversation: at 200 messages, 2.6 ms and 1.4 MB against the inline renderer's 22 ms and 22 MB. An AllocsPerRun ceiling guards the regression and DIVE_DEBUG_FRAMES=1 shows the cost live. Phase 4 of docs/design/cli-direction-plan.md. Also settles the Kitty under tmux question it left open: enable the protocol outright, as the inline app always has, using wonton's new SetKittyKeyboard.

Two things the first real session turned up. The wheel moved three lines a notch, the pager convention. A trackpad delivers notches continuously, so three overshoots badly on exactly the hardware most users have. One line a notch. Secondary greys sat around 100/110 -- roughly 2.9:1 against a dark terminal background, under WCAG AA's 4.5:1 and effectively unreadable on the resume screen, which is mostly secondary text. Worse, wonton's Hint() combines bright black with SGR 2 (faint), and faint on top of an already dark grey is what made hints vanish. Greys now start at 152 and hintStyle keeps the italic without the dimming.

A screenshot of it on a dark terminal made the problems plain: every line was italic, the two-line rows made a wall of text, and the second line of each row was the workspace path -- the same path on nearly every row, so ten rows of it said nothing while costing ten lines. One line per session now, with the turn count and age pinned right and the path shown once under the list for whichever session is selected. Numbered gutter matching the 1-9 shortcut that already existed but was neither visible nor documented. Secondary text is upright. Along the way: sessions with no turns are dropped, since there is nothing in them to resume and they were four of the ten rows on screen; an attachment marker at the front of a title is removed rather than truncated around, which had been hiding the actual message; and titles are cut on rune boundaries -- the old byte slice could split a character.

The Viewport, Measure, and Suspend work the managed screen is built on is released, so the local replace directives the branch was carrying can go. All four modules move together rather than leaving a2a and otel a version behind. go mod tidy promotes golang.org/x/term to a direct dependency of the CLI, which it has been since the managed screen started checking for a terminal. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NuEDVHDB7qbmhq6JChZZXK
The managed screen takes the terminal's own drag-to-select away, so it could not become the default until it gave selection back. It does now: drag to select and copy, double-click a word, triple-click a line, and a drag held past an edge keeps selecting while frames tick. Following is pinned for the life of a selection, or a streamed reply would move the words out from under the pointer. Copy is a ladder because no single rung reaches everyone. A native tool is verifiable and puts the text on PRIMARY too; tmux load-buffer -w carries it outward from inside a multiplexer; OSC 52 is the only rung that crosses an SSH connection. The X11 and Wayland tools are skipped unless their display variable is set — over SSH they are on $PATH and will happily put the text somewhere the user is not sitting. Nothing claims an OSC 52 write landed, because the terminal sends no reply: it is reported as sent, not as copied. /copy takes the selection, or lists the last reply's code blocks for /copy N — from the markdown the model wrote, not the cells it was drawn into, so a block that wrapped on screen still pastes into a file. /mouse hands the gestures back to the terminal for anyone whose terminal has no bypass modifier, and /help names the modifier for everyone else, chosen from TERM_PROGRAM. The flip comes with this rather than a release later, so the default moves once instead of twice, and it brings the exit dump with it: the alternate screen's contents land in scrollback nowhere, so without a dump after the restore a session would leave no trace at all. --inline is the way back to scrollback and a find bar.

The managed screen took away two things nothing in the app replaces: the terminal's find bar, and selecting more than a screenful. /scrollback gives both back by leaving the alternate screen and writing the conversation into the terminal's own, where they have always worked — a far smaller thing to build than a search and a selection model inside the app, and a far better one to use. /scrollback raw writes the markdown the model wrote rather than the render of it, which is the version worth pasting anywhere else. Ctrl+L repaints, and DIVE_FULL_REPAINT=1 repaints every frame, for hosts that leave fragments of the last frame where a diffing flush has no reason to look.

Turning mouse reporting off does not hand the wheel back to the terminal — it stops the app receiving mouse bytes at all. Translating the wheel into arrow keys is a separate mode (CSI ?1007), off by default in iTerm2 and turned off by us in the terminals where it is on, precisely so those arrows do not land in the input. So the notice now names PgUp/PgDn rather than leaving the user to discover that scrolling stopped. Confirmed against a real pty: /mouse writes ?1002l and ?1007l, and ?1007h comes back exactly once, on exit, because we were the ones who sent the ?1007l.

The CLI needs the selection API, which is on feat/selection-and-copy and not yet tagged. A pseudo-version of a pushed commit rather than a replace directive, so the build resolves for anyone who clones it. Only this module moves: nothing else in the repo imports wonton/tui. Bump to v0.0.41 once the branch merges. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NuEDVHDB7qbmhq6JChZZXK
The selection work merged and was tagged, so drop the pseudo-version that tracked the branch head. No code change: v0.1.0 is that branch, plus the DragAutoScroll and EndSelection fixes that landed alongside it.

Probing the three terminals on this machine turned up the case the ladder was built for and the notice did not cover: neither Terminal.app nor a default iTerm2 honours OSC 52 (iTerm2's AllowClipboardAccess is unset). The rung is reached exactly when nothing else can work — dive over SSH — so a user there gets a cheerful "Sent" and an empty clipboard, with no hint that anything is wrong or what to do instead. Records the rollout results in the plan: most of the matrix turned out to be automatable under pty.fork() with injected SGR mouse reports, which is how the app-side rows were filled in rather than sampled.

The CLI went to v0.1.0 with the selection work; the other ten modules were still spread across v0.0.39 and v0.0.40. One version across the repo, so a build of any module resolves the same wonton. All eleven modules build and their tests pass. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NuEDVHDB7qbmhq6JChZZXK
CHANGELOG and docs/README both grew entries on each side; kept both. Folded the branch's duplicate Fixed heading into one, trimmed the CLI entries to the one-to-three-line house style, and dropped two that were internal-only (the transcript renderer collapse, the per-frame git fork) — the changelog is for what users of the CLI notice. providers/meta arrived on wonton v0.0.39 and moves to v0.1.0 with the rest. All twelve modules build and pass; the CLI is clean under vet and -race.

- Line 2285: Update the session replay handling around appMsg.ToolResult and
formatToolResultView so successful Read results also populate ToolReadLines from
resultText when c.Name is Read; leave error results and other tool types
unchanged, while preserving the existing ToolResult assignment.
- Around line 2293-2298: Update the Message construction in the compaction
replay path to use the saved c.Summary as Message.Content instead of replacing
it with a fixed "[Context compacted]" string; retain an optional visible prefix
only if needed while preserving the summary for inline and managed-session
replay.
- Line 2160: Handle the errors returned by tui.Print and tui.Fprint at both call
sites: propagate the tui.Print error through printIntroToScrollback and
runInline, and assert that tui.Fprint returns nil in the test.
In `@experimental/cmd/dive/clipboard.go`:
- Around line 170-175: Update runClipboardTool to create a timeout context and
construct the command with exec.CommandContext, then set a non-zero
cmd.WaitDelay before calling CombinedOutput. Preserve the existing stdin and
output/error handling while ensuring both process execution and inherited-pipe
waiting are bounded.
In `@experimental/cmd/dive/screen.go`:
- Around line 561-563: Compute toolResultsByID(sessionMsgs) once before the
sessionMsgs loop, store the resulting index, and pass that reused index to each
convertLLMMessage call in the message-appending flow.
In `@experimental/cmd/dive/session_picker_test.go`:
- Line 14: Update the pickerHere fixture used by shortenPath tests to derive the
home-directory prefix from os.UserHomeDir() instead of hard-coding
/Users/curtis, while preserving the existing appended repository path and
assertion behavior.
In `@experimental/cmd/dive/session_picker.go`:
- Around line 67-69: Update the session filtering logic around nonEmptySessions
to assign its result to sessions unconditionally, including when the result is
empty. Preserve the downstream cancellation or matching-filter error behavior so
abandoned sessions with EventCount equal to zero are not shown.
In `@experimental/cmd/dive/workspace_scope_test.go`:
- Line 38: Update the intro rendering call around app.appendIntro so it invokes
appendIntro first, stores the returned index, and then indexes app.messages with
that stored index. Preserve the existing tui.Fprint and tui.WithWidth behavior
while preventing access to the slice before the intro is appended.

💡 Result:
In the Go library github.com/deepnoodle-ai/wonton, the Print, Sprint, and Fprint functions are utility methods used for rendering declarative UI components without initiating a full interactive TUI application [1]. These functions process a Viewable component using the library's layout engine (which supports flexbox) and render it once with full ANSI styling [1]. While Wonton provides a tui package for building terminal user interfaces, these specific rendering functions allow developers to output TUI-styled content directly to standard output or other writers, serving as a non-interactive alternative to the framework's main application loop [2][1]. Wonton itself is a Go library designed for creating command-line tools and AI-agent-integrated CLI applications, offering additional modules for clipboard access, SSE parsing, and more [3][4][2][5].

github.com/deepnoodle-ai/wonton v0.1.0 "func Print" "func Fprint"
💡 Result:
The library github.com/deepnoodle-ai/wonton is a Go toolkit for CLI tools and terminal UIs [1][2]. It does not contain custom Print or Fprint functions; rather, it uses the standard library fmt package for printing operations [1][2][3]. The functions Print and Fprint referenced in your query are standard functions provided by the Go fmt package [3][4]: - Fprint(w io.Writer, a...any) (n int, err error): This function formats operands using their default formats and writes the result to the provided io.Writer [5][3]. - Print(a...any) (n int, err error): This function is a wrapper that calls Fprint, directing the output to os.Stdout [5][3][6]. If you are encountering Print or Fprint within code that imports github.com/deepnoodle-ai/wonton, the code is almost certainly invoking the standard fmt package rather than a function specific to the wonton library [1][2].

Preserve the saved compaction summary text.
This conversion replaces c.Summary with "[Context compacted]". Both inline and managed-session replay lose the only saved summary of the compacted conversation. Store c.Summary in Message.Content, with an optional visible prefix if needed.

Filter empty sessions unconditionally.
When every listed session has EventCount == 0, withTurns is empty and this condition leaves sessions unchanged. The picker then shows abandoned sessions instead of returning the required cancellation or matching-filter error.
Proposed fix
- if withTurns := nonEmptySessions(sessions); len(withTurns) > 0 {
- sessions = withTurns
- }
+ sessions = nonEmptySessions(sessions)📝 Committable suggestion
‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

A copy result was appended as a notice, so every drag left a permanent line below the text just selected — growing the transcript and pushing the view down while the user was still reading it. Copy feedback is transient, so it now flashes in the status line for three seconds and expires at render time. That row is always present, so nothing above it moves. Inline mode has no status line and keeps the notice. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NuEDVHDB7qbmhq6JChZZXK
Three things:
- The copy line named the rung that did the work ("Copied 3 lines (pbcopy)").
Which rung is our problem, not the user's, so it now reads "Copied 3 lines".
`via` stays on the report for tests and failure messages.
- The flash moves to the right edge of the status line instead of replacing it,
so the model and branch stay put while it is up.
- The thinking indicator gets a blank line above and below. It sits between the
transcript and the input box and was crowding both.

The spinner simply vanished, so a finished turn looked the same as one that
never started. It now hands its row to:
✻ Worked for 3m 51s · done 11:35 PM
which stands until the next turn begins, with the same blank line above and
below. A long turn is often left running while the user is elsewhere, and a
blank space answers neither "is it done?" nor "how long was I gone?".
/clear drops it along with the transcript it described.

The picker tests pinned /Users/curtis as the home directory, so the "~" assertions passed on one machine and failed everywhere else, CI included. Derive the fixtures from os.UserHomeDir instead. Alongside it, four findings from review that held up against the code: - Replaying a session dropped ToolReadLines, so a resumed Read rendered the file's first line where the live one said "Read N lines". - runClipboardTool could wait forever: CombinedOutput waits on the output pipes, and a clipboard tool that forks to hold the selection keeps the inherited pipe open. Bounded with a context and WaitDelay. - appendSessionHistory rebuilt the tool-result index once per message. - The collapsed tool result cut bytes, splitting multi-byte characters.

Makes the managed screen the CLI's default, and gives it the three things the
alternate screen takes away: selecting text, getting the conversation back out
into your terminal, and being told what just happened without the transcript
moving under you.

the right edge of the status line, not as a transcript line. A transcript
notice is permanent, and a drag copies on every release — so each one would
append a row directly under the text just selected and push the view you are
still reading. The status line is exactly one row whether or not it is saying
anything, which is the point.

On honesty about copying
An OSC 52 write is reported as Sent, never Copied — the terminal sends no
reply, so there is nothing to verify. Which rung did the work stays off the
line entirely; that is ours to worry about, not the reader's.
That distinction matters more than expected. Probing the three terminals on one
Mac found that none honour OSC 52 out of the box: Terminal.app has no
support at all, iTerm2's

Review round
Five findings applied:
ToolReadLines, so a resumedReadrendered thefile's first line where the live one said "Read N lines".
runClipboardToolcould wait forever.CombinedOutputwaits on the outputpipes and not just the process, and a clipboard tool that forks to hold the
selection —
xclipdoes exactly this — keeps the inherited pipe open. Boundednow with a context and
cmd.WaitDelay; the context alone would not havecovered the pipe wait.
appendSessionHistoryrebuilt the tool-result index once per message.about
~passed locally and failed in CI. This was the failing check.Three skipped, with reasons:
a one-line notice with token counts, not the summary; replacing the marker
would dump the whole summary into the transcript on every resume. That is a
UX change rather than a fix, and the right shape for it is collapsed behind
the marker like a tool result.
the result is
Canceledandmain.goreturns silently —dive --resumewould exit with no output at all. Listing unresumable rows is the lesser evil.

selection crosses every boundary; ours can only cover what the viewport
models.
