fix: position host cursor for CJK IME even when app hides cursor (#4951)

2026-04-03T08:21:34Z

* fix: position host cursor for CJK IME even when app hides cursor When apps like Claude Code (ink/React library) hide the cursor during rendering, Zellij's render_cursor() was not sending a CUP sequence to the host terminal. This caused IME composition candidates to appear at the wrong position, breaking CJK input in these apps. Change cursor_coordinates() to return the cursor position unconditionally (as long as it is within bounds) along with a bool indicating visibility. render_cursor() now positions the host cursor even when the app has hidden it, so the IME subsystem can read the correct cursor position. * add test * rustfmt --------- Co-authored-by: Aram Drevekenin

fix(e2e): stabilize tests and support Apple Silicon local dev (#4952)

2026-04-01T10:41:07Z

- cross-compile musl binary on macOS via cargo-zigbuild, with arch-independent symlink so snapshots are stable across x86_64 and aarch64 - kill_running_sessions() now calls stop_zellij() instead of start_zellij(), eliminating 3s startup per test - prevent steps from firing prematurely by tightening completion conditions and adding re-send logic for garbled keys

Fix loading short layouts and custom config dirs (#4640)

2026-01-26T18:05:51Z

* test(e2e): Write a regression test to validate behavior w.r.t. loading and determining the session layout file. Compared to release v0.43.1, right now there is a problem where `zellij --layout NAME`, with `NAME` being the filename of a layout in the `$ZELLIJ_DATA_DIR/layouts/` subfolder, doesn't resolve to the correct layout file. Instead, zellij will silently fall back to its default config. It does, however, recognize nonexistent configuration files. * fix(utils): Treat bare layout names as file paths first before defaulting to builtin layout names. This restores the behavior shown by zellij up until 0.43.1, which was altered in a recent extension of the server-client API. * fix: Forward client layout information to startup code and ensure it isn't ignored along the way. Update a bunch of tests to react to the new function interface and write new tests to catch deviations in the future. * test: Fix misconfigured e2e test to ensure that a custom `--config-dir` is indeed respected during application startup. * test: Rewrite config dir test to not use variable metadata since the `LayoutInfo` object previously dumped into the snapshot contains information that isn't platform agnostic, including an absolute file path and a timestamp. * docs(CHANGELOG): Mention PR #4640 in the list of changes for the next release. * fix: Handle bare layouts with name "default" correctly and assume a "default" layout if no layout name is given during layout resolution. "default" may not always be the builtin default layout, since users can write their own "default.kdl" that takes effect when placed in the layout directory an no other layouts are explicitly specified.
