1.0.5

Added

• User Onboarding Welcome Guide: Designed and implemented an interactive, multi-slide onboarding welcome guide (IntroModal) to showcase key features on startup (Multi-Pane Splits, Web Browser, Sidebar panels, Command Palette, SQLite History, and Keyboard Shortcuts).
• Live Theme Customizer: Added a live theme selector on the final onboarding slide to let users preview and select built-in application themes (Dracula, Nord, Catppuccin, One Dark) in real time.
• Onboarding Config Persistence: Saved the onboarding state (showIntroOnStartup) to config.json5 so the welcome guide won't reappear on launch once skipped or completed, but remains replayable via the About Modal and Command Palette.

Fixed

• Session Layout Persistence: Wired up window terminal API session saving and loading to automatically persist and restore complex tab and split-pane layouts across app restarts.
• React Key Collision & Tab Counters: Fixed duplicate tab key warnings (e.g. duplicate tab-2 keys) on session restoration by migrating tab ID and shell counters to Zustand state, resolving circular dependency initialization issues between useTabStore.ts and tabActions.ts.
• Fastfetch/Startup Size Persistence: Fixed rendering layout artifacts and horizontal clipping on startup commands (like fastfetch) in narrow/midsize terminals by calculating estimated dimensions from Electron window bounds on spawn and executing initial ResizeObserver layouts instantly (without 50ms debounces).

Changed

• Major Refactoring and Architecture Improvements:
  • Preload Isolation & Dry IPC: Reduced preload code by 150+ lines using declarative factory helpers (invoke, send, on).
  • God Component Decompositions: Split the giant 800+ lines App.tsx into clean components: AppShell container, ThemeProvider CSS injector, ModalManager, and a useKeybindings hook.
  • useTabStore Split: Decomposed useTabStore.ts by extracting action files for tab CRUD, split pane layout, and window detaching, fixing tab hibernation bugs.
  • Terminal Lifecycle Extraction: Moved all xterm and fit/webgl/links/image addon lifecycle/mounting logic into a reusable useTerminal hook.
  • Local/SSH PTY Isolation: Separated local PTY spawning from SSH PTY spawning in pty.ts and sshPty.ts, fixing memory leaks on exit.
  • Standardized UI Components: Created reusable shared <Panel>, <SettingsField>, and <ModalOverlay> components, consolidating backdrop/ESC/focus-trap behaviors.
  • Custom useSearchableList Hook: Extracted list filtering and keyboard selection/scrolling logic into a custom hook consumed by the Command Palette and Clipboard.
  • Declarative Sidebar Mapping: Replaced duplicate JSX blocks in Sidebar.tsx with a mapped array configuration.
  • Runtime Config Validation: Implemented settings sanitization/clamping and syntax error broadcasting (config:error) via IPC, rendering warnings on a non-disruptive banner.
  • Stricter Type Safety: Enabled strict TypeScript flags (noUncheckedIndexedAccess, exactOptionalPropertyTypes) in all config files and resolved all compiler issues.
  • CSS Design Tokens: Added font-size, spacing, border-radius, shadows, and transitions scales to global.css and replaced hardcoded values.
  • ESLint React Config: Configured react: { version: "detect" } in the flat ESLint configuration to enable hooks lint checks.
