What

Second of two PRs borrowing prompt-editor ideas from earendil-works/pi-tui. Adds the everyday-friction fixes to the prompt editor.

Stacked on #33 — base is feat/syntax-highlight-and-fuzzy-autocomplete, so this diff shows only the history/undo changes. Retarget to main once #33 merges.

Prompt history ( / )

Recall previously submitted prompts, shell-style.

  • Gated to the editor's vertical edges recalls only when the cursor is on the first row, only on the last row — so multi-line cursor movement is untouched.
  • Stepping past the newest entry restores the in-progress draft you had before browsing.
  • History is de-duplicated against the newest entry and capped at PROMPT_HISTORY_MAX (200).
  • Wired as a runtime-conditional binding in the reducer (same pattern as the existing esc-interrupt and @-mention Tab), since the decision depends on cursor row + history state that the static keymap can't see.

Undo / redo (Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Y)

Mapped to tui-textarea's built-in edit history via explicit keymap actions — discoverable in the help modal + testable, rather than relying on the library's implicit default shortcuts.

Implementation

  • AppState: prompt_history / history_index / history_draft + record_history, set_prompt_text, history_prev, history_next.
  • take_prompt now records the submitted text and resets navigation.
  • New Action::{UndoPrompt, RedoPrompt, HistoryPrev, HistoryNext}.

Testing

  • cargo test --workspace green (323 tui tests).
  • New unit tests: history walk / draft-restore / dedup / cap, and the new keymap bindings.
  • cargo fmt --check clean; new code clippy-pedantic clean.

Second of two PRs borrowing prompt-editor ideas from pi-tui.

- Prompt history: Up/Down recall previously submitted prompts, shell-style.
  Recall is gated to the editor's vertical edges (Up on the first row, Down on
  the last) so multi-line cursor movement is untouched; it's wired as a
  runtime-conditional binding in the reducer (like the existing esc-interrupt
  and @-mention Tab) since it depends on cursor row + history state. Stepping
  down past the newest entry restores the stashed live draft. History is
  de-duplicated against the newest entry and capped at PROMPT_HISTORY_MAX.

- Undo/redo: Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Y map to tui-textarea's built-in edit history via
  explicit keymap actions (discoverable + testable rather than relying on the
  library's default shortcuts).

State gains prompt_history / history_index / history_draft plus record_history,
set_prompt_text, history_prev, history_next. Full suite green; new unit tests
cover history walk/restore/dedup/cap and the new keymap bindings.

Minor opportunity to reduce allocation

In history_prev(), self.prompt_history[index].clone() creates a new String, then set_prompt_text() splits it back into lines. Since we have &String from the vector, we could pass a reference to avoid the intermediate clone. However, this is a micro-optimization and the current code is perfectly readable and correct.

Suggested fix:

Suggested change
self.history_draft = None;
Consider changing `set_prompt_text` to accept `&str` and pass `&self.prompt_history[index]` directly.
