* osc 7501: say what you are doing in somebody else's protocoluser2026-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OSC 5577 only works for programs that know slosh exists. The program status protocol is the same idea written down for everybody, by ghostty's author and implemented by ghostty and Rex, so a program that already speaks it needs to know nothing about us: printf '\033]7501;state=working:app=cargo:msg=YnVpbGRpbmc=\033\\' Implemented *as well as* 5577, not instead of it. 5577 is a two-way control channel -- buttons answer on the program's stdin, shaders are refused with a reason -- and 7501 deliberately is not, so neither absorbs the other. What 7501 buys is the programs we do not control. The scanner becomes one pass for four things: 5577, 7501, OSC 133 ; A and RIS. The last two are here because 7501 ties record lifetime to them -- a new prompt or a full reset is how a stale `working` dies without a heartbeat -- and because a pane should pay for that scan once. osc5577_fn gives way to osc_scan_cbs_t. Reports are all-or-nothing, which is the spec's rule: no state, an unknown state, a broken limit, base64 that will not decode, a control character in decoded text or a malformed id discards the whole report rather than writing a partial one. A malformed *pair* is skipped and the rest parsed. A pane keeps up to PANE_PS_MAX records with LRU eviction, and composes the one line it has from them by precedence -- blocked, error, done, working, idle -- resolving `app` from the nearest ancestor that has one, the way the hierarchy is allowed to mean something. It lands in the slot 5577's `status` already had, because every reader of a pane wants "what is this doing", not "which protocol said so"; `panes` reports program_state, program_kind, program_app and progress beside it, with -1 for a progress nobody reported, since a bar drawn at 0% says something false. The feature-detection reply is rate-limited here. Note for the next re-vendor: upstream lib-vt implements 7501 too, newer than our pin, and answers the support query itself through write_pty without rate-limiting it. See "What upstream did" under D1 in DESIGN.md before swapping this half of the file for GHOSTTY_TERMINAL_OPT_PROGRAM_STATUS.
* slosh: defaults most people can live in, said by shadersuser2026-08-19
The out-of-the-box look, rethought as one piece: - the compiled-in palette calms down: muted blue #7aa2f7 on the same neutral darks, with the colours that mean something kept semantic -- amber bell, red-orange dead. sl0p stays one include away as the house style, and contrib/themes/default.kdl is the starting point written down (theme-tour shows it). - derived state defaults now actually follow the theme: the scrolled wash is rebuilt from scroll_bg after the theme block (it used to bake the compiled accent), and declaring a state -- in any file of an include chain -- still wins. The dump writes derived states as comments so C-a e cannot pin what is meant to keep following. - a bell you can see: the frame blinks three times in theme's bell colour then breathes until answered, and a soft diagonal shimmer -- the bell colour halved towards default_fg, width breathing on a sine -- crosses the body for the same 900ms. bell_indicator false silences all of it; states { bell { } } replaces it like any state. since carries the clock dependency, so an idle session pays nothing. - scrollback says where it continues: while scrolled, the viewport's top and bottom rows melt towards an edge with content past it and turn solid at the buffer's end. New expression variables above/below (lines hidden past each edge, own dependency bit, cached per scroll position), carried in shade_ctx_t -- SLOSH_SHADER_ABI 3 -> 4. - expressions survive the dump: a program keeps its source and cb_chain writes it back, so amount="(y % 2) * 40" no longer dumps as a number. - headers move to include/, -Iinclude everywhere; the plugin Makefile's SLOSH var becomes SLOSH_DIR because slosh exports SLOSH=1 into every pane it runs, and building from inside a session read that as a path. - comment drift culled where features outran the prose, and the derivation boilerplate folded into derived_pass()/ctx_scroll().
