* refactor(tui): thread cols through Md/StreamingMd/renderTable, update cache key
* feat(tui): three-tier width calc + full-line string rendering in renderTable
Replaces the old renderTable (L203-244) with:
- Empty table guard
- Ragged row normalization
- Three-tier column width calculation (ideal → proportional shrink → hard scale)
- Rounding remainder distribution
- Full-line string rendering (one <Text> per row, not per cell)
- wrap=truncate-end on all table lines
- All cells rendered as plain text via stripInlineMarkup
No wrapping or vertical fallback yet — those come in Phase 3 and 4.
* feat(tui): wrapCell with grapheme-safe hard-break + multi-line row rendering
Adds:
- Intl.Segmenter-based grapheme splitting (fallback to [...word])
- wrapCell() for width-correct word wrapping on stripped text
- Multi-line row rendering with LineEntry metadata (header/separator/body)
- Post-render safety condition (maxLineWidth computed, vertical fallback in Task 4)
- Non-wrapping path preserved for tables that fit at ideal widths
* feat(tui): vertical key-value fallback with scaled threshold + safety check
Wires:
- Scaled row-height threshold (numCols<=3: 8, <=6: 5, else: 4)
- Post-render safety check (maxLineWidth > available space)
- Header-only edge case
- Vertical format: bold headers, stripped cell text, clamped separator width
- Iterates headers (not rows) for consistent key-value fields on ragged rows
* test(tui): pass cols to Md in test helpers, add width-overflow assertions
- renderAtWidth now passes cols={columns} to <Md> so width-aware code paths
are exercised in tests
- tableFuzz: every rendered line must fit within allocated width (stringWidth)
- tableRepro: separator regex updated to match truncation ellipsis
- stringWidth imported from @hermes/ink for CJK-correct assertions
* fix(tui): address adversarial review — comment tier 3 budget overshoot, eliminate redundant wrapCell
- Add comment on Tier 3 MIN_COL_WIDTH clamp exceeding budget (self-heals via safetyOverflow)
- Track tallestBodyRow during allEntries build pass instead of re-wrapping every cell
in a second traversal (eliminates O(cells) of redundant stripInlineMarkup+stringWidth)
* fix(tui): pass cols to recursive fenced-markdown Md, fix test frame extraction
- Thread cols into <Md> for fenced markdown blocks (L734) so nested
tables use the width-aware renderer instead of max-content path
- Fix renderAtWidth helpers to extract final Ink repaint frame instead
of concatenating all intermediate frames (REPAINT_RE split)
- Add fenced-markdown-table fixture to tableFuzz (exercises the nested path)
* chore: remove repro test suites and tmux driver script
These were scaffolding for development/reproduction — not needed in the PR.
* feat(ui-tui): resolve links to readable page titles
Mirror desktop pretty-link behavior in the TUI by resolving HTTP links to page titles with shared caching and safe fetch filters, plus slug-based fallbacks so chat links stay readable even when title fetch fails.
* refactor(ui-tui): tighten link-title fallback handling
Clean up the link-title resolver by hardening in-flight cleanup and clarifying title length limits, while adding focused coverage for HTML entity decoding and markdown-label fallback behavior.
* fix(ui-tui): block private-network targets in title fetches
Prevent automatic link-title resolution from requesting local or private hosts by rejecting RFC1918, link-local, ULA, and intranet-style hostnames before fetch, and add regression coverage for blocked host patterns.
CJK and emoji glyphs render as two terminal cells but JS String#length
and the model's own padding count them as one, so any markdown table
with Chinese / Japanese / Korean cells drifts right per row when a
real terminal renders it. Both surfaces fix this with a display-cell
width measurement (wcswidth on the Python side, stringWidth on the
TUI side).
Changes:
- agent/markdown_tables.py: new helper. realign_markdown_tables(text)
detects markdown table blocks (header + |---| divider) and
rewrites the row padding using wcwidth.wcswidth so every pipe and
dash lines up across rows. No-op on text without tables.
- cli.py: hook the helper into _render_final_assistant_content for
strip / render modes (raw passes through untouched), and into the
streaming line emitter so live token-by-token rendering also
produces aligned tables. A small two-buffer state machine in
_emit_stream_text holds table rows until the block ends, then
flushes them through the realigner so all rows pad to a single
per-column width.
- ui-tui/src/components/markdown.tsx: renderTable now uses
stringWidth (Bun.stringWidth fast path + East-Asian-width-aware
fallback, already memoised in @hermes/ink) instead of UTF-16
String#length for both column-width measurement and per-cell
padding. Drops the comment that documented the bug as a deliberate
limitation.
Validation:
- New tests/agent/test_markdown_tables.py (11): every rebuilt block
shares pipe column offsets across rows for pure CJK, mixed
CJK+emoji, ragged-row, and multi-table inputs.
- Updated tests/cli/test_cli_markdown_rendering.py: the existing
strip-mode test asserted exact whitespace; rewritten to assert the
alignment contract (cell content survives + every rendered row
shares pipe offsets).
- New ui-tui markdown.test.ts case (1): rendered column-2 start
offset is identical for the header + every body row, including
the CJK row that drifted before the fix.
- Live: hermes chat -q with the user-reported screenshot prompt now
produces a perfectly aligned table on the wire (header, divider,
4 body rows including '通义千问', all pipes at identical columns).
* fix(tui): trim markdown wrap spaces
Use trim-aware wrapping for markdown prose so word-wrapped continuation lines do not keep boundary spaces.
* fix(tui): simplify markdown wrap nodes
Keep trim-aware wrapping on the rendered markdown text node while leaving nested inline segments as plain virtual text.
* fix(tui): trim definition row wrapping
Apply trim-aware wrapping to markdown definition rows so continuation lines match other prose rows.
* fix(tui): trim list and quote wrapping
Put trim-aware wrapping on the rendered list and quote rows that own markdown inline layout.
* fix(tui): preserve markdown nesting with trim wrap
Move list and quote indentation into layout padding so trim-aware wrapping does not erase nested markdown structure.
* fix(tui): trim only soft wrap spaces
Change trim-aware wrapping to remove whitespace only at soft-wrap boundaries so original leading inline spaces stay verbatim.
* fix(tui): preserve extra boundary whitespace
Trim only one soft-wrap boundary whitespace character so wrap-trim avoids leading continuations without collapsing intentional spacing.
* fix(tui): align styled wrap-trim mapping
Update styled text remapping to skip the single whitespace removed at soft-wrap boundaries without dropping preserved indentation.
* fix(tui): clean wrap trim test helpers
Clarify boundary-trim wording and strip OSC escapes from markdown render test output.
* fix(tui): strip osc before ansi in markdown tests
Remove OSC escapes from raw render output before SGR/CSI cleanup so markdown render assertions stay plain text.
This PR groups the TUI fixes that restore macOS Terminal usability and clean up the theme/composer regressions:
- copy transcript selections on macOS drag-release so Terminal.app users can copy while mouse tracking is enabled
- copy composer selections on macOS drag-release; composer selection is internal to TextInput and does not use the global Ink selection bus
- keep IDE Cmd+C forwarding setup macOS-only, and make keybinding conflict checks respect simple when-clause overlap/negation
- force truecolor before chalk initializes (unless NO_COLOR / FORCE_COLOR / HERMES_TUI_TRUECOLOR opt-outs apply) so the default banner keeps its gold/amber/bronze gradient in Terminal.app
- move TUI surfaces onto semantic theme tokens and preserve skin prompt symbols as bare tokens with renderer-owned spacing
- render focused placeholders as dim hint text in TTY mode instead of inverse/selected-looking synthetic cursor text
Tables rendered through `<Md>` had no separator and no header weight,
so they read as a paragraph with extra whitespace. This adds two tiny,
border-free changes that survive Ink's grapheme-approximate column
widths better than a full outline:
* Bold the header row, keeping the existing amber colour.
* Insert a dim `─`-dashed rule between the header and body rows.
We deliberately stay away from a full outline — column widths are
measured via `stripInlineMarkup(...).length`, which is grapheme-aware
but still off by a cell on East Asian wide characters and emoji-mid-
cell strings. A header rule plus the existing 2-space column gap
gives the visual hierarchy the issue asks for without amplifying that
inaccuracy into a misaligned border.
Validation: `npm run type-check` clean, `npm test --run` 389/389.
CPU profile (Apr 2026, real-user scroll on 11k-line session) showed three
hot loops in the per-frame render path:
Output.get() per-frame walk: 24% total
└─ sliceAnsi(line, from, to) per write: 18% total
stringWidth(line) chain (cached + JS): 14% total
All three were re-doing identical work every frame: same string → same
clipped slice → same width.
Fixes:
1. Memoize stringWidth (8k-entry LRU) for non-ASCII strings; ASCII fast-path
skips the cache (inline scan beats Map.get for short ASCII, the >90%
case). String.charCodeAt scan up to 64 chars is cheaper than the regex
fallback.
2. Memoize wrapText (4k-entry LRU keyed by maxWidth|wrapType|text) — wrapAnsi
is pure and the same content reflows identically every frame.
3. Memoize sliceAnsi (4k-entry LRU keyed by start|end|str) for the
end-defined hot path used by Output.get().
4. Skip the slice entirely in Output.get() when the line already fits the
clip box (startsBefore=false && endsAfter=false). Most transcript lines
never exceed their container width, and tokenizing them just to slice
(line, 0, width) was pure overhead. This single fast-path drops
sliceAnsi from 18% → ~0% in the profile.
Also tighten virtualization constants (MAX_MOUNTED 260→120, OVERSCAN 40→20,
SLIDE_STEP 25→12) and cap historical-message render at 800 chars / 16
lines via HISTORY_RENDER_MAX_*; messages inside the FULL_RENDER_TAIL_ITEMS
window still render in full so reading-zone behavior is unchanged.
Validation, real-user CPU profile, page-up scroll on 11k-line session:
Output.get() self-time: 24% → 0.3%
sliceAnsi total: 18% → not in top 25
stringWidth family: 14% → ~3%
idle: 60.7% → 77.3%
Frame timings (synthetic page-up profile harness):
dur p95: ~10ms → 4.87ms
dur p99: 25ms+ → 12.80ms
yoga p99: ~20ms → 1.87ms
The remaining CPU in the profile is Yoga layoutNode + React commit,
which is the irreducible work for this UI tree size.
- Drop the outer no-op capture group from INLINE_RE and restructure the
source as an ordered list of patterns-with-index-comments so each
alternative is individually greppable. Shift group indices in MdInline
down by one accordingly.
- Inline single-use helpers (parseFence, isFenceClose, isMarkdownFence,
trimBareUrl) and intermediate variables (path, lang, raw, prefix, body,
depth, task body, setext match, etc.).
- Hoist block-level regexes used inside MdImpl (FENCE_CLOSE_RE, SETEXT_RE,
BULLET_RE, TASK_RE, NUMBERED_RE, QUOTE_RE) to top-level consts so
they're compiled once instead of per-line.
- Collapse the duplicate compact-vs-normal blank-line branches into one
if/!compact gap call.
- Move Fence and MdProps types to the bottom per house style.
- Shorten splitTableRow → splitRow and use optional chaining in a few
match sites.
No behavior change; 162/162 tests pass. Net -22 LoC.
The inline markdown regex had `~([^~\s][^~]*?)~` for Pandoc-style subscript
(H~2~O, CO~2~). On models that decorate prose with kaomoji like `thing ~!`
and `cool ~?` — Kimi especially — the opener `~!` paired with the next
stray `~` on the line and dim-formatted everything between them with a
leading `_` character, mangling markdown output.
Tighten the pattern to short alphanumeric-only content (`~[A-Za-z0-9]{1,8}~`)
since real subscript never contains punctuation, spaces, or long runs.
Same tightening applied to stripInlineMarkup so width measurement stays
consistent. Classic CLI was unaffected because it renders these literally.
Models frequently emit bare codepoints like U+26A0 (⚠), U+2139 (ℹ),
U+2764 (❤), U+2714 (✔), U+2600 (☀), U+263A (☺) which, per Unicode, have
Emoji_Presentation=No and render as monochrome text-style glyphs in
terminals unless followed by VS16 (U+FE0F). Agent output leaked through
the TUI like `⚠ careful` instead of `⚠️ careful`.
Added `ensureEmojiPresentation` (lib/emoji.ts): scans for the curated
set of text-default codepoints and appends VS16 when the next char is
not already VS16, ZWJ, or a keycap-enclosing mark. Idempotent and
fast-pathed by a Unicode-range regex so ASCII-heavy text is untouched.
Applied once at the top of `Md`'s line parse. Hermes-ink's stringWidth
already accounts for VS16, so cursor/layout stays correct.
The agent emits `MEDIA:<path>` to signal file delivery to the gateway,
and `[[audio_as_voice]]` as a voice-delivery hint. The gateway strips
both before sending to Telegram/Discord/Slack, but the TUI was rendering
them raw through markdown — which is also how the intraword underscore
bug originally surfaced (`browser_screenshot_ecc…`).
At the `Md` layer, detect both sentinels on their own line:
- `MEDIA:<path>` → `▸ <path>` with the path rendered literal and wrapped
in a `Link` for OSC 8 hyperlink support (absolute paths get a
`file://` URL, so modern terminals make them click-to-open).
- `[[audio_as_voice]]` → dropped silently; it has no meaning in TUI.
Covers tests for quoted/backticked MEDIA variants, Windows drive paths,
whitespace, and the inline-in-prose case (left untouched — still
protected by the intraword-underscore guard).
renderLink was discarding the URL entirely — it rendered the label as amber
underlined text and dropped the href. Result: Cmd+Click / Ctrl+Click did
nothing in any terminal, including Ghostty.
Now both markdown links `[label](url)` and bare `https://…` URLs are wrapped
in @hermes/ink's Link component, which emits OSC 8 (\\x1b]8;;url\\x07label\\x1b]8;;\\x07)
when supportsHyperlinks() returns true. ADDITIONAL_HYPERLINK_TERMINALS already
includes ghostty, iTerm2, kitty, alacritty, Hyper.
Autolinks that look like bare emails (foo@bar.com) now prepend mailto: in the
href so they open the mail client correctly.
Also adds a typed declaration for Link in hermes-ink.d.ts.
Adds a minimal hand-rolled highlighter for ts/js/jsx/tsx, py, sh/bash, go, rust,
json, yaml, sql. Recognizes whole-line comments, single/double/backtick strings,
numbers, and per-language keyword sets. Unknown langs fall through to the current
plain rendering; the existing diff-specific colorization is preserved.
Closes the §8 "Markdown syntax highlighting is missing (only diff gets colored)"
finding from the TUI v2 audit without pulling in a highlighter library.
