Summary

A large productivity-focused feature branch delivering a suite of improvements across automation, project management, theming, performance, and documentation.

Features

Guided Project Workflow (#189) — Four-phase workflow panel (Discuss → Plan → Execute → Verify) to keep projects structured from idea to completion
Automated Task Loop (#179) — Per-task conversation orchestration with wave-based parallel execution, blocked-task detection, and concurrency control
Wave-Based Parallel Execution (#191) — Tasks run in dependency-aware waves with configurable concurrency; independent tasks execute in parallel
Auto-Commit After Task Completion (#192) — Task Loop optionally commits after each completed task so progress is never lost
PRD Creator (#180) — AI-assisted PRD and task list panel that outputs hikari-tasks.json for the Task Loop to consume
Project Context Panel (#188) — Persistent PROJECT.md, REQUIREMENTS.md, ROADMAP.md, and STATE.md files injected into Claude's context automatically
Codebase Mapper (#190) — Generates a CODEBASE.md architectural summary so Claude always understands the project structure
Community Preset Themes (#181) — Six built-in community themes: Dracula, Catppuccin Mocha, Nord, Solarized Dark, Gruvbox Dark, and Rosé Pine
In-App Changelog Panel (#193) — Fetches release notes from GitHub at runtime and displays them inside the app
Full Embedded Documentation (#196) — Replaced the single-page help modal with a 12-page paginated docs browser featuring a sidebar TOC, prev/next navigation, keyboard navigation (arrow keys, ? shortcut), and comprehensive coverage of every feature

Performance & Fixes

Lazy Loading & Virtualisation (#194) — Virtual windowing for conversation history, markdown memoisation, and debounced search for smooth rendering of large sessions
Ctrl+C Copy Fix (#195) — Ctrl+C now copies selected text as expected; interrupt-Claude behaviour only fires when no text is selected

UX

Back-to-workflow button in PRD Creator and Task Loop panels for easy navigation
Navigation icon cluster replaced with a single clean dropdown menu

hikari added 16 commits 2026-03-07 02:12:27 -08:00

feat: project context panel for persistent PROJECT/REQUIREMENTS/ROADMAP/STATE files (#188 ) 78dc838f36

- Add projectContext store with load/save via existing Tauri file commands
- Add ProjectContextPanel modal with tabbed editor, file-exists badges, and templates
- Add injectTextStore signal so StatusBar can inject content directly into InputBar
- Add PROJECT_CONTEXT_SYSTEM_ADDENDUM auto-appended to custom_instructions on connect
- Add open-book button to StatusBar to open the panel
- Add PROJECT.md example file for the hikari-desktop project itself
- 34 tests covering all store methods, exports, and signal behaviour

feat: codebase mapper with CODEBASE.md generation (#190 ) 9136f3351d

- Add scan_project Rust command that walks the directory tree and detects project type
- Add CODEBASE as a managed ProjectFile type alongside PROJECT/REQUIREMENTS/ROADMAP/STATE
- Add mapCodebase() store function that scans and sends an analysis prompt to Claude
- Add CODEBASE tab to ProjectContextPanel with Map/Remap buttons and auto-reload on idle
- Update PROJECT_CONTEXT_SYSTEM_ADDENDUM to include CODEBASE.md reference

feat: prd creator panel with hikari-tasks.json format and distinct icon 55d65fa244

Adds a PRD Creator panel accessible from the status bar that lets Naomi
describe a goal and have Claude break it down into actionable tasks
written to hikari-tasks.json. Tasks can be reviewed, edited, reordered,
and executed directly from the panel. Uses the Lucide ScrollText icon to
distinguish it visually from the Todo List clipboard icon.

Also adds CODEBASE.md to the repo and gitignores hikari-tasks.json as a
user-generated data file.

perf: virtual windowing, markdown memoisation, and search debounce 46339a040a

- Terminal: virtual windowing renders max 150 lines, loads 50 older on
  scroll-up with scroll position compensation; auto-advances window
  forward during auto-scroll so old DOM nodes are unloaded continuously
- Markdown: two-stage derived rendering separates expensive parse step
  (marked + hljs + spoilers, runs on content change) from cheap search
  highlight step (runs on query change only)
- Achievements: fix double Object.keys() call in derived store
- Terminal: 150ms debounce on search query to reduce redundant updates
- Tests: add Markdown.test.ts for processSpoilers and highlightSearchMatches;
  extend Terminal.test.ts with virtual windowing helper coverage

feat: replace nav icon cluster with single dropdown menu 93c11a05b7

Consolidates 21 toolbar buttons into a single Menu trigger that
opens a scrollable dropdown with icon + label per item. Clicking
any item auto-closes the menu; backdrop click also closes it.

All panel state migrated to NavMenu; StatusBar trimmed ~480 lines.

feat: changelog panel with runtime release fetching a98e544b52

Adds a Changelog panel accessible from the nav menu. Fetches all
releases from the Gitea API on open and renders each entry with
version badge, date, pre-release tag, and markdown release notes.
Highlights the currently installed version with a pink "current" badge.

feat: automated task loop panel with per-task conversation orchestration 93b3aa379c

Implements issue #179. Adds a Task Loop panel that imports hikari-tasks.json
files and automatically runs Claude Code through each task in sequence, one
per conversation tab. Includes Start/Pause/Stop/Resume controls, real-time
status indicators per task, and a StatusBar badge. WSL UNC paths from the
file picker are normalised to Unix paths at import time.

fix: prevent stale windowStart when switching conversations e9a9ffc9ab

fix: correct autoscroll race conditions and lazy load trigger 80a59a0b22

- Move isRestoringScroll = true before await tick() so scroll events
  fired during the DOM transition cannot incorrectly set shouldAutoScroll
  to false, breaking autoscroll for all tabs except the first
- Guard the windowStart reactive block with isSwitchingConversation so
  stale lines from the previous conversation cannot override the correct
  windowStart after a tab switch
- Fix lazy load threshold to trigger relative to the visible window top
  (windowStart * AVG_LINE_HEIGHT + 300) rather than the absolute scroll
  container top, so older messages load without scrolling through the spacer

fix: preserve Ctrl+C copy behaviour when text is selected 793043e192

Resolves #195. Before sending an interrupt signal, check whether
the user has text selected. If so, let the browser handle Ctrl+C
as a native copy rather than interrupting Claude.
