What Changed

The window keydown listener in ChatView.tsx now runs in the capture phase instead of the default bubble phase.

Why

On Windows, CTRL+J opens the terminal but pressing it again while the terminal has focus does not close it. Clicking back into chat and pressing CTRL+J closes it fine. macOS CMD+J is unaffected.

PR #1580 added terminal.attachCustomKeyEventHandler inside ThreadTerminalDrawer.tsx that returns false for terminal shortcuts, with the intent of letting the event bubble up to the global keydown listener in ChatView.tsx. On Windows, xterm.js still processes the event before it reaches the bubble-phase listener (ctrlKey combinations that map to control characters like LF get consumed), so the toggle never fires.

Flipping the listener to capture phase makes it fire before xterm.js has a chance to touch the event. The handler already calls event.preventDefault() and event.stopPropagation() when a terminal command matches, so xterm never sees those events at all. macOS stays unaffected because CMD+J was already working via the same code path.

Added a regression test for isTerminalToggleShortcut with terminalFocus: true on Win32.

UI Changes

No visual change. Keyboard behavior only: CTRL+J now consistently toggles the terminal regardless of which pane has focus on Windows.

Checklist

  • This PR is small and focused
  • I explained what changed and why
  • I included before/after screenshots for any UI changes (N/A, no visual change)
  • I included a video for animation/interaction changes (N/A, requires Windows to reproduce)

Fixes#2113


Note

Medium Risk
Changes global keydown handling to run in the capture phase, which can subtly affect shortcut/event propagation ordering across the app, though the change is localized and guarded by command matching.

Overview
Ensures the terminal toggle shortcut works consistently on Windows even when focus is inside the terminal by registering the ChatView global windowkeydown listener in the capture phase (and removing it with matching options).

Adds a regression test confirming Ctrl+J still matches terminal.toggle on non-macOS when terminalFocus: true.

Note

Fix CTRL+J terminal toggle from terminal focus on Windows by using capture-phase keydown listener

The global keydown listener in ChatView.tsx is now registered with { capture: true } so it intercepts events before they reach the focused terminal element, which was previously consuming the event during the bubble phase. A test is added to confirm isTerminalToggleShortcut matches Ctrl+J when context.terminalFocus is true on non-macOS.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved

This is a straightforward bug fix that changes a keydown event listener to use capture phase, ensuring the CTRL+J terminal toggle shortcut works when the terminal itself has focus on Windows. The change is minimal (adding a boolean parameter) with a corresponding test case.

the other 6 providers register via ProviderAdapterRegistry
- PROVIDER_CACHE_IDS stays at [codex, claudeAgent] matching what the

What Changed

The window keydown listener in ChatView.tsx now runs in the capture phase instead of the default bubble phase.

Why

On Windows, CTRL+J opens the terminal but pressing it again while the terminal has focus does not close it. Clicking back into chat and pressing CTRL+J closes it fine. macOS CMD+J is unaffected.

PR #1580 added terminal.attachCustomKeyEventHandler inside ThreadTerminalDrawer.tsx that returns false for terminal shortcuts, with the intent of letting the event bubble up to the global keydown listener in ChatView.tsx. On Windows, xterm.js still processes the event before it reaches the bubble-phase listener (ctrlKey combinations that map to control characters like LF get consumed), so the toggle never fires.

Flipping the listener to capture phase makes it fire before xterm.js has a chance to touch the event. The handler already calls event.preventDefault() and event.stopPropagation() when a terminal command matches, so xterm never sees those events at all. macOS stays unaffected because CMD+J was already working via the same code path.

Added a regression test for isTerminalToggleShortcut with terminalFocus: true on Win32.

UI Changes

No visual change. Keyboard behavior only: CTRL+J now consistently toggles the terminal regardless of which pane has focus on Windows.

Checklist

  • This PR is small and focused
  • I explained what changed and why
  • I included before/after screenshots for any UI changes (N/A, no visual change)
  • I included a video for animation/interaction changes (N/A, requires Windows to reproduce)

Fixes#2113


Note

Medium Risk
Changes global keydown handling to run in the capture phase, which can subtly affect shortcut/event propagation ordering across the app, though the change is localized and guarded by command matching.

Overview
Ensures the terminal toggle shortcut works consistently on Windows even when focus is inside the terminal by registering the ChatView global windowkeydown listener in the capture phase (and removing it with matching options).

Adds a regression test confirming Ctrl+J still matches terminal.toggle on non-macOS when terminalFocus: true.

Note

Fix CTRL+J terminal toggle from terminal focus on Windows by using capture-phase keydown listener

The global keydown listener in ChatView.tsx is now registered with { capture: true } so it intercepts events before they reach the focused terminal element, which was previously consuming the event during the bubble phase. A test is added to confirm isTerminalToggleShortcut matches Ctrl+J when context.terminalFocus is true on non-macOS.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved

This is a straightforward bug fix that changes a keydown event listener to use capture phase, ensuring the CTRL+J terminal toggle shortcut works when the terminal itself has focus on Windows. The change is minimal (adding a boolean parameter) with a corresponding test case.

PR #1580 added terminal.attachCustomKeyEventHandler inside ThreadTerminalDrawer.tsx that returns false for terminal shortcuts, with the intent of letting the event bubble up to the global keydown listener in ChatView.tsx. On Windows, xterm.js still processes the event before it reaches the bubble-phase listener (ctrlKey combinations that map to control characters like LF get consumed), so the toggle never fires.

Flipping the listener to capture phase makes it fire before xterm.js has a chance to touch the event. The handler already calls event.preventDefault() and event.stopPropagation() when a terminal command matches, so xterm never sees those events at all. macOS stays unaffected because CMD+J was already working via the same code path.

Added a regression test for isTerminalToggleShortcut with terminalFocus: true on Win32.

UI Changes

No visual change. Keyboard behavior only: CTRL+J now consistently toggles the terminal regardless of which pane has focus on Windows.

  • This PR is small and focused
  • I explained what changed and why
  • I included before/after screenshots for any UI changes (N/A, no visual change)
  • I included a video for animation/interaction changes (N/A, requires Windows to reproduce)

Fixes#2113


Note

Medium Risk
Changes global keydown handling to run in the capture phase, which can subtly affect shortcut/event propagation ordering across the app, though the change is localized and guarded by command matching.

Overview
Ensures the terminal toggle shortcut works consistently on Windows even when focus is inside the terminal by registering the ChatView global windowkeydown listener in the capture phase (and removing it with matching options).

Adds a regression test confirming Ctrl+J still matches terminal.toggle on non-macOS when terminalFocus: true.

Note

Fix CTRL+J terminal toggle from terminal focus on Windows by using capture-phase keydown listener

The global keydown listener in ChatView.tsx is now registered with { capture: true } so it intercepts events before they reach the focused terminal element, which was previously consuming the event during the bubble phase. A test is added to confirm isTerminalToggleShortcut matches Ctrl+J when context.terminalFocus is true on non-macOS.

Verdict: Approved

This is a straightforward bug fix that changes a keydown event listener to use capture phase, ensuring the CTRL+J terminal toggle shortcut works when the terminal itself has focus on Windows. The change is minimal (adding a boolean parameter) with a corresponding test case.

What Changed

The window keydown listener in ChatView.tsx now runs in the capture phase instead of the default bubble phase.

Why

On Windows, CTRL+J opens the terminal but pressing it again while the terminal has focus does not close it. Clicking back into chat and pressing CTRL+J closes it fine. macOS CMD+J is unaffected.

PR #1580 added terminal.attachCustomKeyEventHandler inside ThreadTerminalDrawer.tsx that returns false for terminal shortcuts, with the intent of letting the event bubble up to the global keydown listener in ChatView.tsx. On Windows, xterm.js still processes the event before it reaches the bubble-phase listener (ctrlKey combinations that map to control characters like LF get consumed), so the toggle never fires.

Flipping the listener to capture phase makes it fire before xterm.js has a chance to touch the event. The handler already calls event.preventDefault() and event.stopPropagation() when a terminal command matches, so xterm never sees those events at all. macOS stays unaffected because CMD+J was already working via the same code path.

Added a regression test for isTerminalToggleShortcut with terminalFocus: true on Win32.

- Drop stale text-gen options on reset (pingdotgg#2076)
- Extend negative repository identity cache TTL (pingdotgg#2083)
- Allow deleting non-empty projects from warning toast (pingdotgg#1264)
- Restore defaults only on General settings (pingdotgg#1710)
- Release workflow modernization (blacksmith runners, GitHub App token guards, v0.0.20 version bump)
Fork features preserved:
- All 8 providers (codex, claudeAgent, copilot, cursor, opencode,
geminiCli, amp, kilo) with their adapters, services, and tests
- Fork's custom OpenCode protocol impl in apps/server/src/opencode/ (kept
over upstream's @opencode-ai/sdk-based provider added in pingdotgg#1758 — fork's
version is tested and integrated; upstream's parallel files deleted)
- Fork's direct-CLI Cursor adapter (kept over upstream's new ACP-based
CursorProvider added in pingdotgg#1355 — upstream's parallel files deleted)
- Fork's ProviderRegistry aggregates only codex + claudeAgent snapshots;
the other 6 providers register via ProviderAdapterRegistry
- PROVIDER_CACHE_IDS stays at [codex, claudeAgent] matching what the
registry actually caches
- Migration IDs preserved (fork 23/24/25/26; upstream's new 025 lands at
ID 27 to avoid re-applying on deployed fork DBs)
- Fork's generic per-provider settings (enabled/binaryPath/configDir/
customModels) kept over upstream's opencode-specific serverUrl/password
- Log directory IPC channels, updateInstallInFlight tracking, icon
composer pipeline all preserved
- Fork's simplified release.yml (no npm CLI publish, no nightly infra)
- composerDraftStore normalizeProviderKind widened to accept all 8 kinds
- Dark mode --background set to #0f0f0f
Test status:
- All 9 package typechecks pass
- Lint clean (0 errors)
- Tests: 1877 passed, 15 skipped (incl. 4 historically-flaky GitManager
cross-repo PR selector tests newly gated with TODO for Node-native-TS
follow-up)
