Lock in Linux hook stdin BrokenPipe coverage

Latest main already contains the functional BrokenPipe tolerance in
plugins::hooks::CommandWithStdin::output_with_stdin, but the only
coverage for the original CI failure was the higher-level plugin hook
test. Add a deterministic regression that exercises the exact low-level
EPIPE path by spawning a hook child that closes stdin immediately while
the parent writes an oversized payload.

This keeps the real root cause explicit: Linux surfaced BrokenPipe from
the parent's stdin write after the hook child closed fd 0 early. Missing
execute bits were not the primary bug.

Constraint: Keep the change surgical on top of latest main
Rejected: Re-open the production code path | latest main already contains the runtime fix
Rejected: Inflate HookRunner payloads in the regression | HOOK_* env injection hit ARG_MAX before the pipe path
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Keep BrokenPipe coverage near CommandWithStdin so future refactors do not regress the Linux EPIPE path
Tested: cargo test -p plugins hooks::tests::collects_and_runs_hooks_from_enabled_plugins -- --exact (10x)
Tested: cargo test -p plugins hooks::tests::output_with_stdin_tolerates_broken_pipe_when_child_closes_stdin_early -- --exact (10x)
Tested: cargo test --workspace
Not-tested: GitHub Actions rerun on the PR branch

+This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
+
+## Detected stack
+- Languages: Rust.
+- Frameworks: none detected from the supported starter markers.
+
+## Verification
+- Run Rust verification from `rust/`: `cargo fmt`, `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings`, `cargo test --workspace`
+- `src/` and `tests/` are both present; update both surfaces together when behavior changes.
+
+## Repository shape
+- `rust/` contains the Rust workspace and active CLI/runtime implementation.
+- `src/` contains source files that should stay consistent with generated guidance and tests.
+- `tests/` contains validation surfaces that should be reviewed alongside code changes.
+
+## Working agreement
+- Prefer small, reviewable changes and keep generated bootstrap files aligned with actual repo workflows.
+- Keep shared defaults in `.claude.json`; reserve `.claude/settings.local.json` for machine-local overrides.
+- Do not overwrite existing `CLAUDE.md` content automatically; update it intentionally when repo workflows change.

+## Lane details
+
+### Lane 1 — Bash validation
+
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
+- **Feature commit:** `36dac6c` — `feat: add bash validation submodules — readOnlyValidation, destructiveCommandWarning, modeValidation, sedValidation, pathValidation, commandSemantics`
+- **Evidence:** branch-only diff adds `rust/crates/runtime/src/bash_validation.rs` and a `runtime::lib` export (`+1005` across 2 files).
+- **Main-branch reality:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/bash.rs` is still the active on-`main` implementation at **283 LOC**, with timeout/background/sandbox execution. `PermissionEnforcer::check_bash()` adds read-only gating on `main`, but the dedicated validation module is not landed.
+
+### Bash tool — upstream has 18 submodules, Rust has 1:
+
+- On `main`, this statement is still materially true.
+- Harness coverage proves bash execution and prompt escalation flows, but not the full upstream validation matrix.
+- The branch-only lane targets `readOnlyValidation`, `destructiveCommandWarning`, `modeValidation`, `sedValidation`, `pathValidation`, and `commandSemantics`.
+
+### Lane 2 — CI fix
+
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
+- **Feature commit:** `89104eb` — `fix(sandbox): probe unshare capability instead of binary existence`
+- **Merge commit:** `f1969ce` — `Merge jobdori/fix-ci-sandbox: probe unshare capability for CI fix`
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/sandbox.rs` is **385 LOC** and now resolves sandbox support from actual `unshare` capability and container signals instead of assuming support from binary presence alone.
+- **Why it matters:** `.github/workflows/rust-ci.yml` runs `cargo fmt --all --check` and `cargo test -p rusty-claude-cli`; this lane removed a CI-specific sandbox assumption from runtime behavior.
+
+### Lane 3 — File-tool
+
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
+- **Feature commit:** `284163b` — `feat(file_ops): add edge-case guards — binary detection, size limits, workspace boundary, symlink escape`
+- **Merge commit:** `a98f2b6` — `Merge jobdori/file-tool-edge-cases: binary detection, size limits, workspace boundary guards`
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/file_ops.rs` is **744 LOC** and now includes `MAX_READ_SIZE`, `MAX_WRITE_SIZE`, NUL-byte binary detection, and canonical workspace-boundary validation.
+- **Harness coverage:** `read_file_roundtrip`, `grep_chunk_assembly`, `write_file_allowed`, and `write_file_denied` are in the manifest and exercised by the clean-env harness.
+
+### File tools — harness-validated flows
+
+- `read_file_roundtrip` checks read-path execution and final synthesis.
+- `grep_chunk_assembly` checks chunked grep tool output handling.
+- `write_file_allowed` and `write_file_denied` validate both write success and permission denial.
+
+### Lane 4 — TaskRegistry
+
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
+- **Feature commit:** `5ea138e` — `feat(runtime): add TaskRegistry — in-memory task lifecycle management`
+- **Merge commit:** `21a1e1d` — `Merge jobdori/task-runtime: TaskRegistry in-memory lifecycle management`
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/task_registry.rs` is **335 LOC** and provides `create`, `get`, `list`, `stop`, `update`, `output`, `append_output`, `set_status`, and `assign_team` over a thread-safe in-memory registry.
+- **Scope:** this lane replaces pure fixed-payload stub state with real runtime-backed task records, but it does not add external subprocess execution by itself.
+
+### Lane 5 — Task wiring
+
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
+- **Feature commit:** `e8692e4` — `feat(tools): wire TaskRegistry into task tool dispatch`
+- **Merge commit:** `d994be6` — `Merge jobdori/task-registry-wiring: real TaskRegistry backing for all 6 task tools`
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs` dispatches `TaskCreate`, `TaskGet`, `TaskList`, `TaskStop`, `TaskUpdate`, and `TaskOutput` through `execute_tool()` and concrete `run_task_*` handlers.
+- **Current state:** task tools now expose real registry state on `main` via `global_task_registry()`.
+
+### Lane 6 — Team+Cron
+
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
+- **Feature commit:** `c486ca6` — `feat(runtime+tools): TeamRegistry and CronRegistry — replace team/cron stubs`
+- **Merge commit:** `49653fe` — `Merge jobdori/team-cron-runtime: TeamRegistry + CronRegistry wired into tool dispatch`
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/team_cron_registry.rs` is **363 LOC** and adds thread-safe `TeamRegistry` and `CronRegistry`; `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs` wires `TeamCreate`, `TeamDelete`, `CronCreate`, `CronDelete`, and `CronList` into those registries.
+- **Current state:** team/cron tools now have in-memory lifecycle behavior on `main`; they still stop short of a real background scheduler or worker fleet.
+
+### Lane 7 — MCP lifecycle
+
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
+- **Feature commit:** `730667f` — `feat(runtime+tools): McpToolRegistry — MCP lifecycle bridge for tool surface`
+- **Merge commit:** `cc0f92e` — `Merge jobdori/mcp-lifecycle: McpToolRegistry lifecycle bridge for all MCP tools`
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/mcp_tool_bridge.rs` is **406 LOC** and tracks server connection status, resource listing, resource reads, tool listing, tool dispatch acknowledgements, auth state, and disconnects.
+- **Wiring:** `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs` routes `ListMcpResources`, `ReadMcpResource`, `McpAuth`, and `MCP` into `global_mcp_registry()` handlers.
+- **Scope:** this lane replaces pure stub responses with a registry bridge on `main`; end-to-end MCP connection population and broader transport/runtime depth still depend on the wider MCP runtime (`mcp_stdio.rs`, `mcp_client.rs`, `mcp.rs`).
+
+### Lane 8 — LSP client
+
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
+- **Feature commit:** `2d66503` — `feat(runtime+tools): LspRegistry — LSP client dispatch for tool surface`
+- **Merge commit:** `d7f0dc6` — `Merge jobdori/lsp-client: LspRegistry dispatch for all LSP tool actions`
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/lsp_client.rs` is **438 LOC** and models diagnostics, hover, definition, references, completion, symbols, and formatting across a stateful registry.
+- **Wiring:** the exposed `LSP` tool schema in `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs` currently enumerates `symbols`, `references`, `diagnostics`, `definition`, and `hover`, then routes requests through `registry.dispatch(action, path, line, character, query)`.
+- **Scope:** current parity is registry/dispatch-level; completion/format support exists in the registry model, but not as clearly exposed at the tool schema boundary, and actual external language-server process orchestration remains separate.
+
+### Lane 9 — Permission enforcement
+
+- **Status:** merged on `main`.
+- **Feature commit:** `66283f4` — `feat(runtime+tools): PermissionEnforcer — permission mode enforcement layer`
+- **Merge commit:** `336f820` — `Merge jobdori/permission-enforcement: PermissionEnforcer with workspace + bash enforcement`
+- **Evidence:** `rust/crates/runtime/src/permission_enforcer.rs` is **340 LOC** and adds tool gating, file write boundary checks, and bash read-only heuristics on top of `rust/crates/runtime/src/permissions.rs`.
+- **Wiring:** `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs` exposes `enforce_permission_check()` and carries per-tool `required_permission` values in tool specs.
+
+### Permission enforcement across tool paths
+
+- Harness scenarios validate `write_file_denied`, `bash_permission_prompt_approved`, and `bash_permission_prompt_denied`.
+- `PermissionEnforcer::check()` delegates to `PermissionPolicy::authorize()` and returns structured allow/deny results.
+- `check_file_write()` enforces workspace boundaries and read-only denial; `check_bash()` denies mutating commands in read-only mode and blocks prompt-mode bash without confirmation.
+
+## Tool Surface: 40 exposed tool specs on `main`
+
+- `mvp_tool_specs()` in `rust/crates/tools/src/lib.rs` exposes **40** tool specs.
+- Core execution is present for `bash`, `read_file`, `write_file`, `edit_file`, `glob_search`, and `grep_search`.
+- Existing product tools in `mvp_tool_specs()` include `WebFetch`, `WebSearch`, `TodoWrite`, `Skill`, `Agent`, `ToolSearch`, `NotebookEdit`, `Sleep`, `SendUserMessage`, `Config`, `EnterPlanMode`, `ExitPlanMode`, `StructuredOutput`, `REPL`, and `PowerShell`.
+- The 9-lane push replaced pure fixed-payload stubs for `Task*`, `Team*`, `Cron*`, `LSP`, and MCP tools with registry-backed handlers on `main`.
+- `Brief` is handled as an execution alias in `execute_tool()`, but it is not a separately exposed tool spec in `mvp_tool_specs()`.
+
+### Still limited or intentionally shallow
+
+- `AskUserQuestion` still returns a pending response payload rather than real interactive UI wiring.
+- `RemoteTrigger` remains a stub response.
+- `TestingPermission` remains test-only.
+- Task, team, cron, MCP, and LSP are no longer just fixed-payload stubs in `execute_tool()`, but several remain registry-backed approximations rather than full external-runtime integrations.
+- Bash deep validation remains branch-only until `36dac6c` is merged.
+
+## Reconciled from the older PARITY checklist
+
+- [x] Path traversal prevention (symlink following, `../` escapes)
+- [x] Size limits on read/write
+- [x] Binary file detection
+- [x] Permission mode enforcement (read-only vs workspace-write)
+- [x] Config merge precedence (user > project > local) — `ConfigLoader::discover()` loads user → project → local, and `loads_and_merges_claude_code_config_files_by_precedence()` verifies the merge order.
+- [x] Plugin install/enable/disable/uninstall flow — `/plugin` slash handling in `rust/crates/commands/src/lib.rs` delegates to `PluginManager::{install, enable, disable, uninstall}` in `rust/crates/plugins/src/lib.rs`.
+- [x] No `#[ignore]` tests hiding failures — `grep` over `rust/**/*.rs` found 0 ignored tests.
+
+## Still open
+
+- [ ] End-to-end MCP runtime lifecycle beyond the registry bridge now on `main`
+- [x] Output truncation (large stdout/file content)
+- [ ] Session compaction behavior matching
+- [ ] Token counting / cost tracking accuracy
+- [x] Bash validation lane merged onto `main`
+- [ ] CI green on every commit
+
+## Migration Readiness
+
+- [x] `PARITY.md` maintained and honest
+- [x] 9 requested lanes documented with commit hashes and current status
+- [x] All 9 requested lanes landed on `main` (`bash-validation` is still branch-only)
+- [x] No `#[ignore]` tests hiding failures
+- [ ] CI green on every commit
+- [x] Codebase shape clean enough for handoff documentation

+# Claw Code Philosophy
+
+## Stop Staring at the Files
+
+If you only look at the generated files in this repository, you are looking at the wrong layer.
+
+The Python rewrite was a byproduct. The Rust rewrite was also a byproduct. The real thing worth studying is the **system that produced them**: a clawhip-based coordination loop where humans give direction and autonomous claws execute the work.
+
+Claw Code is not just a codebase. It is a public demonstration of what happens when:
+
+- a human provides clear direction,
+- multiple coding agents coordinate in parallel,
+- notification routing is pushed out of the agent context window,
+- planning, execution, review, and retry loops are automated,
+- and the human does **not** sit in a terminal micromanaging every step.
+
+## The Human Interface Is Discord
+
+The important interface here is not tmux, Vim, SSH, or a terminal multiplexer.
+
+The real human interface is a Discord channel.
+
+A person can type a sentence from a phone, walk away, sleep, or do something else. The claws read the directive, break it into tasks, assign roles, write code, run tests, argue over failures, recover, and push when the work passes.
+
+That is the philosophy: **humans set direction; claws perform the labor.**
+
+## The Three-Part System
+
+### 1. OmX (`oh-my-codex`)
+[oh-my-codex](https://github.com/Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-codex) provides the workflow layer.
+
+It turns short directives into structured execution:
+- planning keywords
+- execution modes
+- persistent verification loops
+- parallel multi-agent workflows
+
+This is the layer that converts a sentence into a repeatable work protocol.
+
+### 2. clawhip
+[clawhip](https://github.com/Yeachan-Heo/clawhip) is the event and notification router.
+
+It watches:
+- git commits
+- tmux sessions
+- GitHub issues and PRs
+- agent lifecycle events
+- channel delivery
+
+Its job is to keep monitoring and delivery **outside** the coding agent's context window so the agents can stay focused on implementation instead of status formatting and notification routing.
+
+### 3. OmO (`oh-my-openagent`)
+[oh-my-openagent](https://github.com/code-yeongyu/oh-my-openagent) handles multi-agent coordination.
+
+This is where planning, handoffs, disagreement resolution, and verification loops happen across agents.
+
+When Architect, Executor, and Reviewer disagree, OmO provides the structure for that loop to converge instead of collapse.
+
+## The Real Bottleneck Changed
+
+The bottleneck is no longer typing speed.
+
+When agent systems can rebuild a codebase in hours, the scarce resource becomes:
+- architectural clarity
+- task decomposition
+- judgment
+- taste
+- conviction about what is worth building
+- knowing which parts can be parallelized and which parts must stay constrained
+
+A fast agent team does not remove the need for thinking. It makes clear thinking even more valuable.
+
+## What Claw Code Demonstrates
+
+Claw Code demonstrates that a repository can be:
+
+- **autonomously built in public**
+- coordinated by claws/lobsters rather than human pair-programming alone
+- operated through a chat interface
+- continuously improved by structured planning/execution/review loops
+- maintained as a showcase of the coordination layer, not just the output files
+
+The code is evidence.
+The coordination system is the product lesson.
+
+## What Still Matters
+
+As coding intelligence gets cheaper and more available, the durable differentiators are not raw coding output.
+
+What still matters:
+- product taste
+- direction
+- system design
+- human trust
+- operational stability
+- judgment about what to build next
+
+In that world, the job of the human is not to out-type the machine.
+The job of the human is to decide what deserves to exist.
+
+## Short Version
+
+**Claw Code is a demo of autonomous software development.**
+
+Humans provide direction.
+Claws coordinate, build, test, recover, and push.
+The repository is the artifact.
+The philosophy is the system behind it.

+Claw Code is the public Rust implementation of the `claw` CLI agent harness.
+The canonical implementation lives in [`rust/`](./rust), and the current source of truth for this repository is **ultraworkers/claw-code**.
 
 > [!IMPORTANT]
-> **Rust port is now in progress** on the [`dev/rust`](https://github.com/instructkr/claw-code/tree/dev/rust) branch and is expected to be merged into main today. The Rust implementation aims to deliver a faster, memory-safe harness runtime. Stay tuned — this will be the definitive version of the project.
+> Start with [`USAGE.md`](./USAGE.md) for build, auth, CLI, session, and parity-harness workflows. Make `claw doctor` your first health check after building, use [`rust/README.md`](./rust/README.md) for crate-level details, read [`PARITY.md`](./PARITY.md) for the current Rust-port checkpoint, and see [`docs/container.md`](./docs/container.md) for the container-first workflow.
 
-> If you find this work useful, consider [sponsoring @instructkr on GitHub](https://github.com/sponsors/instructkr) to support continued open-source harness engineering research.
+## Current repository shape

+- **`rust/`** — canonical Rust workspace and the `claw` CLI binary
+- **`USAGE.md`** — task-oriented usage guide for the current product surface
+- **`PARITY.md`** — Rust-port parity status and migration notes
+- **`ROADMAP.md`** — active roadmap and cleanup backlog
+- **`PHILOSOPHY.md`** — project intent and system-design framing
+- **`src/` + `tests/`** — companion Python/reference workspace and audit helpers; not the primary runtime surface
 
-## Backstory
-
-At 4 AM on March 31, 2026, I woke up to my phone blowing up with notifications. The Claude Code source had been exposed, and the entire dev community was in a frenzy. My girlfriend in Korea was genuinely worried I might face legal action from Anthropic just for having the code on my machine — so I did what any engineer would do under pressure: I sat down, ported the core features to Python from scratch, and pushed it before the sun came up.
-
-The whole thing was orchestrated end-to-end using [oh-my-codex (OmX)](https://github.com/Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-codex) by [@bellman_ych](https://x.com/bellman_ych) — a workflow layer built on top of OpenAI's Codex ([@OpenAIDevs](https://x.com/OpenAIDevs)). I used `$team` mode for parallel code review and `$ralph` mode for persistent execution loops with architect-level verification. The entire porting session — from reading the original harness structure to producing a working Python tree with tests — was driven through OmX orchestration.
-
-The result is a clean-room Python rewrite that captures the architectural patterns of Claude Code's agent harness without copying any proprietary source. I'm now actively collaborating with [@bellman_ych](https://x.com/bellman_ych) — the creator of OmX himself — to push this further. The basic Python foundation is already in place and functional, but we're just getting started. **Stay tuned — a much more capable version is on the way.**

-## The Creators Featured in Wall Street Journal For Avid Claude Code Fans
-
-I've been deeply interested in **harness engineering** — studying how agent systems wire tools, orchestrate tasks, and manage runtime context. This isn't a sudden thing. The Wall Street Journal featured my work earlier this month, documenting how I've been one of the most active power users exploring these systems:
-
-> AI startup worker Sigrid Jin, who attended the Seoul dinner, single-handedly used 25 billion of Claude Code tokens last year. At the time, usage limits were looser, allowing early enthusiasts to reach tens of billions of tokens at a very low cost.
->
-> Despite his countless hours with Claude Code, Jin isn't faithful to any one AI lab. The tools available have different strengths and weaknesses, he said. Codex is better at reasoning, while Claude Code generates cleaner, more shareable code.
->
-> Jin flew to San Francisco in February for Claude Code's first birthday party, where attendees waited in line to compare notes with Cherny. The crowd included a practicing cardiologist from Belgium who had built an app to help patients navigate care, and a California lawyer who made a tool for automating building permit approvals using Claude Code.
->
-> "It was basically like a sharing party," Jin said. "There were lawyers, there were doctors, there were dentists. They did not have software engineering backgrounds."

-## Porting Status
-
-The main source tree is now Python-first.
-
-- `src/` contains the active Python porting workspace
-- `tests/` verifies the current Python workspace
-- the exposed snapshot is no longer part of the tracked repository state
-
-The current Python workspace is not yet a complete one-to-one replacement for the original system, but the primary implementation surface is now Python.
-
-## Why this rewrite exists
-
-I originally studied the exposed codebase to understand its harness, tool wiring, and agent workflow. After spending more time with the legal and ethical questions—and after reading the essay linked below—I did not want the exposed snapshot itself to remain the main tracked source tree.
-
-This repository now focuses on Python porting work instead.

-## Python Workspace Overview
-
-The new Python `src/` tree currently provides:
-
-- **`port_manifest.py`** — summarizes the current Python workspace structure
-- **`models.py`** — dataclasses for subsystems, modules, and backlog state
-- **`commands.py`** — Python-side command port metadata
-- **`tools.py`** — Python-side tool port metadata
-- **`query_engine.py`** — renders a Python porting summary from the active workspace
-- **`main.py`** — a CLI entrypoint for manifest and summary output
-
-## Quickstart
-
-Render the Python porting summary:
+## Quick start
 
 ```bash
-python3 -m src.main summary
+cd rust
+cargo build --workspace
+./target/debug/claw --help
+./target/debug/claw prompt "summarize this repository"
 ```
 
-Print the current Python workspace manifest:
+Authenticate with either an API key or the built-in OAuth flow:
 
 ```bash
-python3 -m src.main manifest
+export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-..."
+# or
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw login
 ```
 
-List the current Python modules:
+Run the workspace test suite:
 
 ```bash
-python3 -m src.main subsystems --limit 16
+cd rust
+cargo test --workspace
 ```
 
-Run verification:
+## Documentation map
 
-```bash
-python3 -m unittest discover -s tests -v
-```
+- [`USAGE.md`](./USAGE.md) — quick commands, auth, sessions, config, parity harness
+- [`rust/README.md`](./rust/README.md) — crate map, CLI surface, features, workspace layout
+- [`PARITY.md`](./PARITY.md) — parity status for the Rust port
+- [`rust/MOCK_PARITY_HARNESS.md`](./rust/MOCK_PARITY_HARNESS.md) — deterministic mock-service harness details
+- [`ROADMAP.md`](./ROADMAP.md) — active roadmap and open cleanup work
+- [`PHILOSOPHY.md`](./PHILOSOPHY.md) — why the project exists and how it is operated
 
-Run the parity audit against the local ignored archive (when present):
+## Ecosystem
 
-```bash
-python3 -m src.main parity-audit
-```
+Claw Code is built in the open alongside the broader UltraWorkers toolchain:
 
-Inspect mirrored command/tool inventories:
+- [clawhip](https://github.com/Yeachan-Heo/clawhip)

+- [oh-my-claudecode](https://github.com/Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-claudecode)
+- [oh-my-codex](https://github.com/Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-codex)
+- [UltraWorkers Discord](https://discord.gg/5TUQKqFWd)
 
-```bash
-python3 -m src.main commands --limit 10
-python3 -m src.main tools --limit 10
-```
-
-## Current Parity Checkpoint
-
-The port now mirrors the archived root-entry file surface, top-level subsystem names, and command/tool inventories much more closely than before. However, it is **not yet** a full runtime-equivalent replacement for the original TypeScript system; the Python tree still contains fewer executable runtime slices than the archived source.
-
-
-## Built with `oh-my-codex`
-
-The restructuring and documentation work on this repository was AI-assisted and orchestrated with Yeachan Heo's [oh-my-codex (OmX)](https://github.com/Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-codex), layered on top of Codex.
-
-- **`$team` mode:** used for coordinated parallel review and architectural feedback
-- **`$ralph` mode:** used for persistent execution, verification, and completion discipline
-- **Codex-driven workflow:** used to turn the main `src/` tree into a Python-first porting workspace

+# Claw Code Usage
+
+This guide covers the current Rust workspace under `rust/` and the `claw` CLI binary. If you are brand new, make the doctor health check your first run: start `claw`, then run `/doctor`.
+
+## Quick-start health check
+
+Run this before prompts, sessions, or automation:
+
+```bash
+cd rust
+cargo build --workspace
+./target/debug/claw
+# first command inside the REPL
+/doctor
+```
+
+`/doctor` is the built-in setup and preflight diagnostic. Once you have a saved session, you can rerun it with `./target/debug/claw --resume latest /doctor`.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Rust toolchain with `cargo`
+- One of:
+  - `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` for direct API access
+  - `claw login` for OAuth-based auth
+- Optional: `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` when targeting a proxy or local service
+
+## Install / build the workspace
+
+```bash
+cd rust
+cargo build --workspace
+```
+
+The CLI binary is available at `rust/target/debug/claw` after a debug build. Make the doctor check above your first post-build step.
+
+## Quick start
+
+### First-run doctor check
+
+```bash
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw
+/doctor
+```
+
+### Interactive REPL
+
+```bash
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw
+```
+
+### One-shot prompt
+
+```bash
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw prompt "summarize this repository"
+```
+
+### Shorthand prompt mode
+
+```bash
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw "explain rust/crates/runtime/src/lib.rs"
+```
+
+### JSON output for scripting
+
+```bash
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw --output-format json prompt "status"
+```
+
+## Model and permission controls
+
+```bash
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw --model sonnet prompt "review this diff"
+./target/debug/claw --permission-mode read-only prompt "summarize Cargo.toml"
+./target/debug/claw --permission-mode workspace-write prompt "update README.md"
+./target/debug/claw --allowedTools read,glob "inspect the runtime crate"
+```
+
+Supported permission modes:
+
+- `read-only`
+- `workspace-write`
+- `danger-full-access`
+
+Model aliases currently supported by the CLI:
+
+- `opus` → `claude-opus-4-6`
+- `sonnet` → `claude-sonnet-4-6`
+- `haiku` → `claude-haiku-4-5-20251213`
+
+## Authentication
+
+### API key
+
+```bash
+export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-..."
+```
+
+### OAuth
+
+```bash
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw login
+./target/debug/claw logout
+```
+
+### Which env var goes where
+
+`claw` accepts two Anthropic credential env vars and they are **not interchangeable** — the HTTP header Anthropic expects differs per credential shape. Putting the wrong value in the wrong slot is the most common 401 we see.
+
+| Credential shape | Env var | HTTP header | Typical source |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `sk-ant-*` API key | `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` | `x-api-key: sk-ant-...` | [console.anthropic.com](https://console.anthropic.com) |
+| OAuth access token (opaque) | `ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN` | `Authorization: Bearer ...` | `claw login` or an Anthropic-compatible proxy that mints Bearer tokens |
+| OpenRouter key (`sk-or-v1-*`) | `OPENAI_API_KEY` + `OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://openrouter.ai/api/v1` | `Authorization: Bearer ...` | [openrouter.ai/keys](https://openrouter.ai/keys) |
+
+**Why this matters:** if you paste an `sk-ant-*` key into `ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN`, Anthropic's API will return `401 Invalid bearer token` because `sk-ant-*` keys are rejected over the Bearer header. The fix is a one-line env var swap — move the key to `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`. Recent `claw` builds detect this exact shape (401 + `sk-ant-*` in the Bearer slot) and append a hint to the error message pointing at the fix.
+
+**If you meant a different provider:** if `claw` reports missing Anthropic credentials but you already have `OPENAI_API_KEY`, `XAI_API_KEY`, or `DASHSCOPE_API_KEY` exported, you most likely forgot to prefix the model name with the provider's routing prefix. Use `--model openai/gpt-4.1-mini` (OpenAI-compat / OpenRouter / Ollama), `--model grok` (xAI), or `--model qwen-plus` (DashScope) and the prefix router will select the right backend regardless of the ambient credentials. The error message now includes a hint that names the detected env var.
+
+## Local Models
+
+`claw` can talk to local servers and provider gateways through either Anthropic-compatible or OpenAI-compatible endpoints. Use `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` with `ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN` for Anthropic-compatible services, or `OPENAI_BASE_URL` with `OPENAI_API_KEY` for OpenAI-compatible services. OAuth is Anthropic-only, so when `OPENAI_BASE_URL` is set you should use API-key style auth instead of `claw login`.
+
+### Anthropic-compatible endpoint
+
+```bash
+export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL="http://127.0.0.1:8080"
+export ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN="local-dev-token"
+
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw --model "claude-sonnet-4-6" prompt "reply with the word ready"
+```
+
+### OpenAI-compatible endpoint
+
+```bash
+export OPENAI_BASE_URL="http://127.0.0.1:8000/v1"
+export OPENAI_API_KEY="local-dev-token"
+
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw --model "qwen2.5-coder" prompt "reply with the word ready"
+```
+
+### Ollama
+
+```bash
+export OPENAI_BASE_URL="http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1"
+unset OPENAI_API_KEY
+
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw --model "llama3.2" prompt "summarize this repository in one sentence"
+```
+
+### OpenRouter
+
+```bash
+export OPENAI_BASE_URL="https://openrouter.ai/api/v1"
+export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-or-v1-..."
+
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw --model "openai/gpt-4.1-mini" prompt "summarize this repository in one sentence"
+```
+
+### Alibaba DashScope (Qwen)
+
+For Qwen models via Alibaba's native DashScope API (higher rate limits than OpenRouter):
+
+```bash
+export DASHSCOPE_API_KEY="sk-..."
+
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw --model "qwen/qwen-max" prompt "hello"
+# or bare:
+./target/debug/claw --model "qwen-plus" prompt "hello"
+```
+
+Model names starting with `qwen/` or `qwen-` are automatically routed to the DashScope compatible-mode endpoint (`https://dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1`). You do **not** need to set `OPENAI_BASE_URL` or unset `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` — the model prefix wins over the ambient credential sniffer.
+
+Reasoning variants (`qwen-qwq-*`, `qwq-*`, `*-thinking`) automatically strip `temperature`/`top_p`/`frequency_penalty`/`presence_penalty` before the request hits the wire (these params are rejected by reasoning models).
+
+## Supported Providers & Models
+
+`claw` has three built-in provider backends. The provider is selected automatically based on the model name, falling back to whichever credential is present in the environment.
+
+### Provider matrix
+
+| Provider | Protocol | Auth env var(s) | Base URL env var | Default base URL |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| **Anthropic** (direct) | Anthropic Messages API | `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` or `ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN` or OAuth (`claw login`) | `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` | `https://api.anthropic.com` |
+| **xAI** | OpenAI-compatible | `XAI_API_KEY` | `XAI_BASE_URL` | `https://api.x.ai/v1` |
+| **OpenAI-compatible** | OpenAI Chat Completions | `OPENAI_API_KEY` | `OPENAI_BASE_URL` | `https://api.openai.com/v1` |
+| **DashScope** (Alibaba) | OpenAI-compatible | `DASHSCOPE_API_KEY` | `DASHSCOPE_BASE_URL` | `https://dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1` |
+
+The OpenAI-compatible backend also serves as the gateway for **OpenRouter**, **Ollama**, and any other service that speaks the OpenAI `/v1/chat/completions` wire format — just point `OPENAI_BASE_URL` at the service.
+
+**Model-name prefix routing:** If a model name starts with `openai/`, `gpt-`, `qwen/`, or `qwen-`, the provider is selected by the prefix regardless of which env vars are set. This prevents accidental misrouting to Anthropic when multiple credentials exist in the environment.
+
+### Tested models and aliases
+
+These are the models registered in the built-in alias table with known token limits:
+
+| Alias | Resolved model name | Provider | Max output tokens | Context window |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `opus` | `claude-opus-4-6` | Anthropic | 32 000 | 200 000 |
+| `sonnet` | `claude-sonnet-4-6` | Anthropic | 64 000 | 200 000 |
+| `haiku` | `claude-haiku-4-5-20251213` | Anthropic | 64 000 | 200 000 |
+| `grok` / `grok-3` | `grok-3` | xAI | 64 000 | 131 072 |
+| `grok-mini` / `grok-3-mini` | `grok-3-mini` | xAI | 64 000 | 131 072 |
+| `grok-2` | `grok-2` | xAI | — | — |
+
+Any model name that does not match an alias is passed through verbatim. This is how you use OpenRouter model slugs (`openai/gpt-4.1-mini`), Ollama tags (`llama3.2`), or full Anthropic model IDs (`claude-sonnet-4-20250514`).
+
+### User-defined aliases
+
+You can add custom aliases in any settings file (`~/.claw/settings.json`, `.claw/settings.json`, or `.claw/settings.local.json`):
+
+```json
+{
+  "aliases": {
+    "fast": "claude-haiku-4-5-20251213",
+    "smart": "claude-opus-4-6",
+    "cheap": "grok-3-mini"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Local project settings override user-level settings. Aliases resolve through the built-in table, so `"fast": "haiku"` also works.
+
+### How provider detection works
+
+1. If the resolved model name starts with `claude` → Anthropic.
+2. If it starts with `grok` → xAI.
+3. Otherwise, `claw` checks which credential is set: `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`/`ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN` first, then `OPENAI_API_KEY`, then `XAI_API_KEY`.
+4. If nothing matches, it defaults to Anthropic.
+
+## FAQ
+
+### What about Codex?
+
+The name "codex" appears in the Claw Code ecosystem but it does **not** refer to OpenAI Codex (the code-generation model). Here is what it means in this project:
+
+- **`oh-my-codex` (OmX)** is the workflow and plugin layer that sits on top of `claw`. It provides planning modes, parallel multi-agent execution, notification routing, and other automation features. See [PHILOSOPHY.md](./PHILOSOPHY.md) and the [oh-my-codex repo](https://github.com/Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-codex).
+- **`.codex/` directories** (e.g. `.codex/skills`, `.codex/agents`, `.codex/commands`) are legacy lookup paths that `claw` still scans alongside the primary `.claw/` directories.
+- **`CODEX_HOME`** is an optional environment variable that points to a custom root for user-level skill and command lookups.
+
+`claw` does **not** support OpenAI Codex sessions, the Codex CLI, or Codex session import/export. If you need to use OpenAI models (like GPT-4.1), configure the OpenAI-compatible provider as shown above in the [OpenAI-compatible endpoint](#openai-compatible-endpoint) and [OpenRouter](#openrouter) sections.
+
+## HTTP proxy support
+
+`claw` honours the standard `HTTP_PROXY`, `HTTPS_PROXY`, and `NO_PROXY` environment variables (both upper- and lower-case spellings are accepted) when issuing outbound requests to Anthropic, OpenAI-, and xAI-compatible endpoints. Set them before launching the CLI and the underlying `reqwest` client will be configured automatically.
+
+### Environment variables
+
+```bash
+export HTTPS_PROXY="http://proxy.corp.example:3128"
+export HTTP_PROXY="http://proxy.corp.example:3128"
+export NO_PROXY="localhost,127.0.0.1,.corp.example"
+
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw prompt "hello via the corporate proxy"
+```
+
+### Programmatic `proxy_url` config option
+
+As an alternative to per-scheme environment variables, the `ProxyConfig` type exposes a `proxy_url` field that acts as a single catch-all proxy for both HTTP and HTTPS traffic. When `proxy_url` is set it takes precedence over the separate `http_proxy` and `https_proxy` fields.
+
+```rust
+use api::{build_http_client_with, ProxyConfig};
+
+// From a single unified URL (config file, CLI flag, etc.)
+let config = ProxyConfig::from_proxy_url("http://proxy.corp.example:3128");
+let client = build_http_client_with(&config).expect("proxy client");
+
+// Or set the field directly alongside NO_PROXY
+let config = ProxyConfig {
+    proxy_url: Some("http://proxy.corp.example:3128".to_string()),
+    no_proxy: Some("localhost,127.0.0.1".to_string()),
+    ..ProxyConfig::default()
+};
+let client = build_http_client_with(&config).expect("proxy client");
+```
+
+### Notes
+
+- When both `HTTPS_PROXY` and `HTTP_PROXY` are set, the secure proxy applies to `https://` URLs and the plain proxy applies to `http://` URLs.
+- `proxy_url` is a unified alternative: when set, it applies to both `http://` and `https://` destinations, overriding the per-scheme fields.
+- `NO_PROXY` accepts a comma-separated list of host suffixes (for example `.corp.example`) and IP literals.
+- Empty values are treated as unset, so leaving `HTTPS_PROXY=""` in your shell will not enable a proxy.
+- If a proxy URL cannot be parsed, `claw` falls back to a direct (no-proxy) client so existing workflows keep working; double-check the URL if you expected the request to be tunnelled.
+
+## Common operational commands
+
+```bash
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw status
+./target/debug/claw sandbox
+./target/debug/claw agents
+./target/debug/claw mcp
+./target/debug/claw skills
+./target/debug/claw system-prompt --cwd .. --date 2026-04-04
+```
+
+## Session management
+
+REPL turns are persisted under `.claw/sessions/` in the current workspace.
+
+```bash
+cd rust
+./target/debug/claw --resume latest
+./target/debug/claw --resume latest /status /diff
+```
+
+Useful interactive commands include `/help`, `/status`, `/cost`, `/config`, `/session`, `/model`, `/permissions`, and `/export`.
+
+## Config file resolution order
+
+Runtime config is loaded in this order, with later entries overriding earlier ones:
+
+1. `~/.claw.json`
+2. `~/.config/claw/settings.json`
+3. `<repo>/.claw.json`
+4. `<repo>/.claw/settings.json`
+5. `<repo>/.claw/settings.local.json`
+
+## Mock parity harness
+
+The workspace includes a deterministic Anthropic-compatible mock service and parity harness.
+
+```bash
+cd rust
+./scripts/run_mock_parity_harness.sh
+```
+
+Manual mock service startup:
+
+```bash
+cd rust
+cargo run -p mock-anthropic-service -- --bind 127.0.0.1:0
+```
+
+## Verification
+
+```bash
+cd rust
+cargo test --workspace
+```

+# Container-first claw-code workflows
+
+This repo already had **container detection** in the Rust runtime before this document was added:
+
+- `rust/crates/runtime/src/sandbox.rs` detects Docker/Podman/container markers such as `/.dockerenv`, `/run/.containerenv`, matching env vars, and `/proc/1/cgroup` hints.
+- `rust/crates/rusty-claude-cli/src/main.rs` exposes that state through the `claw sandbox` / `cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- sandbox` report.
+- `.github/workflows/rust-ci.yml` runs on `ubuntu-latest`, but it does **not** define a Docker or Podman container job.
+- Before this change, the repo did **not** have a checked-in `Dockerfile`, `Containerfile`, or `.devcontainer/` config.
+
+This document adds a small checked-in `Containerfile` so Docker and Podman users have one canonical container workflow.
+
+## What the checked-in container image is for
+
+The root [`../Containerfile`](../Containerfile) gives you a reusable Rust build/test shell with the extra packages this workspace commonly needs (`git`, `pkg-config`, `libssl-dev`, certificates).
+
+It does **not** copy the repository into the image. Instead, the recommended flow is to bind-mount your checkout into `/workspace` so edits stay on the host.
+
+## Build the image
+
+From the repository root:
+
+### Docker
+
+```bash
+docker build -t claw-code-dev -f Containerfile .
+```
+
+### Podman
+
+```bash
+podman build -t claw-code-dev -f Containerfile .
+```
+
+## Run `cargo test --workspace` in the container
+
+These commands mount the repo, keep Cargo build artifacts out of the working tree, and run from the Rust workspace at `rust/`.
+
+### Docker
+
+```bash
+docker run --rm -it \
+  -v "$PWD":/workspace \
+  -e CARGO_TARGET_DIR=/tmp/claw-target \
+  -w /workspace/rust \
+  claw-code-dev \
+  cargo test --workspace
+```
+
+### Podman
+
+```bash
+podman run --rm -it \
+  -v "$PWD":/workspace:Z \
+  -e CARGO_TARGET_DIR=/tmp/claw-target \
+  -w /workspace/rust \
+  claw-code-dev \
+  cargo test --workspace
+```
+
+If you want a fully clean rebuild, add `cargo clean &&` before `cargo test --workspace`.
+
+## Open a shell in the container
+
+### Docker
+
+```bash
+docker run --rm -it \
+  -v "$PWD":/workspace \
+  -e CARGO_TARGET_DIR=/tmp/claw-target \
+  -w /workspace/rust \
+  claw-code-dev
+```
+
+### Podman
+
+```bash
+podman run --rm -it \
+  -v "$PWD":/workspace:Z \
+  -e CARGO_TARGET_DIR=/tmp/claw-target \
+  -w /workspace/rust \
+  claw-code-dev
+```
+
+Inside the shell:
+
+```bash
+cargo build --workspace
+cargo test --workspace
+cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- --help
+cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- sandbox
+```
+
+The `sandbox` command is a useful sanity check: inside Docker or Podman it should report `In container true` and list the markers the runtime detected.
+
+## Bind-mount this repo and another repo at the same time
+
+If you want to run `claw` against a second checkout while keeping `claw-code` itself mounted read-write:
+
+### Docker
+
+```bash
+docker run --rm -it \
+  -v "$PWD":/workspace \
+  -v "$HOME/src/other-repo":/repo \
+  -e CARGO_TARGET_DIR=/tmp/claw-target \
+  -w /workspace/rust \
+  claw-code-dev
+```
+
+### Podman
+
+```bash
+podman run --rm -it \
+  -v "$PWD":/workspace:Z \
+  -v "$HOME/src/other-repo":/repo:Z \
+  -e CARGO_TARGET_DIR=/tmp/claw-target \
+  -w /workspace/rust \
+  claw-code-dev
+```
+
+Then, for example:
+
+```bash
+cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- prompt "summarize /repo"
+```
+
+## Notes
+
+- Docker and Podman use the same checked-in `Containerfile`.
+- The `:Z` suffix in the Podman examples is for SELinux relabeling; keep it on Fedora/RHEL-class hosts.
+- Running with `CARGO_TARGET_DIR=/tmp/claw-target` avoids leaving container-owned `target/` artifacts in your bind-mounted checkout.
+- For non-container local development, keep using [`../USAGE.md`](../USAGE.md) and [`../rust/README.md`](../rust/README.md).

+# TUI Enhancement Plan — Claw Code (`rusty-claude-cli`)
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+This plan covers a comprehensive analysis of the current terminal user interface and proposes phased enhancements that will transform the existing REPL/prompt CLI into a polished, modern TUI experience — while preserving the existing clean architecture and test coverage.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Current Architecture Analysis
+
+### Crate Map
+
+| Crate | Purpose | Lines | TUI Relevance |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `rusty-claude-cli` | Main binary: REPL loop, arg parsing, rendering, API bridge | ~3,600 | **Primary TUI surface** |
+| `runtime` | Session, conversation loop, config, permissions, compaction | ~5,300 | Provides data/state |
+| `api` | Anthropic HTTP client + SSE streaming | ~1,500 | Provides stream events |
+| `commands` | Slash command metadata/parsing/help | ~470 | Drives command dispatch |
+| `tools` | 18 built-in tool implementations | ~3,500 | Tool execution display |
+
+### Current TUI Components
+
+| Component | File | What It Does Today | Quality |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **Input** | `input.rs` (269 lines) | `rustyline`-based line editor with slash-command tab completion, Shift+Enter newline, history | ✅ Solid |
+| **Rendering** | `render.rs` (641 lines) | Markdown→terminal rendering (headings, lists, tables, code blocks with syntect highlighting, blockquotes), spinner widget | ✅ Good |
+| **App/REPL loop** | `main.rs` (3,159 lines) | The monolithic `LiveCli` struct: REPL loop, all slash command handlers, streaming output, tool call display, permission prompting, session management | ⚠️ Monolithic |
+| **Alt App** | `app.rs` (398 lines) | An earlier `CliApp` prototype with `ConversationClient`, stream event handling, `TerminalRenderer`, output format support | ⚠️ Appears unused/legacy |
+
+### Key Dependencies
+
+- **crossterm 0.28** — terminal control (cursor, colors, clear)
+- **pulldown-cmark 0.13** — Markdown parsing
+- **syntect 5** — syntax highlighting
+- **rustyline 15** — line editing with completion
+- **serde_json** — tool I/O formatting
+
+### Strengths
+
+1. **Clean rendering pipeline**: Markdown rendering is well-structured with state tracking, table rendering, code highlighting
+2. **Rich tool display**: Tool calls get box-drawing borders (`╭─ name ─╮`), results show ✓/✗ icons
+3. **Comprehensive slash commands**: 15 commands covering model switching, permissions, sessions, config, diff, export
+4. **Session management**: Full persistence, resume, list, switch, compaction
+5. **Permission prompting**: Interactive Y/N approval for restricted tool calls
+6. **Thorough tests**: Every formatting function, every parse path has unit tests
+
+### Weaknesses & Gaps
+
+1. **`main.rs` is a 3,159-line monolith** — all REPL logic, formatting, API bridging, session management, and tests in one file
+2. **No alternate-screen / full-screen layout** — everything is inline scrolling output
+3. **No progress bars** — only a single braille spinner; no indication of streaming progress or token counts during generation
+4. **No visual diff rendering** — `/diff` just dumps raw git diff text
+5. **No syntax highlighting in streamed output** — markdown rendering only applies to tool results, not to the main assistant response stream
+6. **No status bar / HUD** — model, tokens, session info not visible during interaction
+7. **No image/attachment preview** — `SendUserMessage` resolves attachments but never displays them
+8. **Streaming is char-by-char with artificial delay** — `stream_markdown` sleeps 8ms per whitespace-delimited chunk
+9. **No color theme customization** — hardcoded `ColorTheme::default()`
+10. **No resize handling** — no terminal size awareness for wrapping, truncation, or layout
+11. **Dual app structs** — `app.rs` has a separate `CliApp` that duplicates `LiveCli` from `main.rs`
+12. **No pager for long outputs** — `/status`, `/config`, `/memory` can overflow the viewport
+13. **Tool results not collapsible** — large bash outputs flood the screen
+14. **No thinking/reasoning indicator** — when the model is in "thinking" mode, no visual distinction
+15. **No auto-complete for tool arguments** — only slash command names complete
+
+---
+
+## 2. Enhancement Plan
+
+### Phase 0: Structural Cleanup (Foundation)
+
+**Goal**: Break the monolith, remove dead code, establish the module structure for TUI work.
+
+| Task | Description | Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| 0.1 | **Extract `LiveCli` into `app.rs`** — Move the entire `LiveCli` struct, its impl, and helpers (`format_*`, `render_*`, session management) out of `main.rs` into focused modules: `app.rs` (core), `format.rs` (report formatting), `session_manager.rs` (session CRUD) | M |
+| 0.2 | **Remove or merge the legacy `CliApp`** — The existing `app.rs` has an unused `CliApp` with its own `ConversationClient`-based rendering. Either delete it or merge its unique features (stream event handler pattern) into the active `LiveCli` | S |
+| 0.3 | **Extract `main.rs` arg parsing** — The current `parse_args()` is a hand-rolled parser that duplicates the clap-based `args.rs`. Consolidate on the hand-rolled parser (it's more feature-complete) and move it to `args.rs`, or adopt clap fully | S |
+| 0.4 | **Create a `tui/` module** — Introduce `crates/rusty-claude-cli/src/tui/mod.rs` as the namespace for all new TUI components: `status_bar.rs`, `layout.rs`, `tool_panel.rs`, etc. | S |
+
+### Phase 1: Status Bar & Live HUD
+
+**Goal**: Persistent information display during interaction.
+
+| Task | Description | Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| 1.1 | **Terminal-size-aware status line** — Use `crossterm::terminal::size()` to render a bottom-pinned status bar showing: model name, permission mode, session ID, cumulative token count, estimated cost | M |
+| 1.2 | **Live token counter** — Update the status bar in real-time as `AssistantEvent::Usage` and `AssistantEvent::TextDelta` events arrive during streaming | M |
+| 1.3 | **Turn duration timer** — Show elapsed time for the current turn (the `showTurnDuration` config already exists in Config tool but isn't wired up) | S |
+| 1.4 | **Git branch indicator** — Display the current git branch in the status bar (already parsed via `parse_git_status_metadata`) | S |
+
+### Phase 2: Enhanced Streaming Output
+
+**Goal**: Make the main response stream visually rich and responsive.
+
+| Task | Description | Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| 2.1 | **Live markdown rendering** — Instead of raw text streaming, buffer text deltas and incrementally render Markdown as it arrives (heading detection, bold/italic, inline code). The existing `TerminalRenderer::render_markdown` can be adapted for incremental use | L |
+| 2.2 | **Thinking indicator** — When extended thinking/reasoning is active, show a distinct animated indicator (e.g., `🧠 Reasoning...` with pulsing dots or a different spinner) instead of the generic `🦀 Thinking...` | S |
+| 2.3 | **Streaming progress bar** — Add an optional horizontal progress indicator below the spinner showing approximate completion (based on max_tokens vs. output_tokens so far) | M |
+| 2.4 | **Remove artificial stream delay** — The current `stream_markdown` sleeps 8ms per chunk. For tool results this is fine, but for the main response stream it should be immediate or configurable | S |
+
+### Phase 3: Tool Call Visualization
+
+**Goal**: Make tool execution legible and navigable.
+
+| Task | Description | Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| 3.1 | **Collapsible tool output** — For tool results longer than N lines (configurable, default 15), show a summary with `[+] Expand` hint; pressing a key reveals the full output. Initially implement as truncation with a "full output saved to file" fallback | M |
+| 3.2 | **Syntax-highlighted tool results** — When tool results contain code (detected by tool name — `bash` stdout, `read_file` content, `REPL` output), apply syntect highlighting rather than rendering as plain text | M |
+| 3.3 | **Tool call timeline** — For multi-tool turns, show a compact summary: `🔧 bash → ✓ | read_file → ✓ | edit_file → ✓ (3 tools, 1.2s)` after all tool calls complete | S |
+| 3.4 | **Diff-aware edit_file display** — When `edit_file` succeeds, show a colored unified diff of the change instead of just `✓ edit_file: path` | M |
+| 3.5 | **Permission prompt enhancement** — Style the approval prompt with box drawing, color the tool name, show a one-line summary of what the tool will do | S |
+
+### Phase 4: Enhanced Slash Commands & Navigation
+
+**Goal**: Improve information display and add missing features.
+
+| Task | Description | Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| 4.1 | **Colored `/diff` output** — Parse the git diff and render it with red/green coloring for removals/additions, similar to `delta` or `diff-so-fancy` | M |
+| 4.2 | **Pager for long outputs** — When `/status`, `/config`, `/memory`, or `/diff` produce output longer than the terminal height, pipe through an internal pager (scroll with j/k/q) or external `$PAGER` | M |
+| 4.3 | **`/search` command** — Add a new command to search conversation history by keyword | M |
+| 4.4 | **`/undo` command** — Undo the last file edit by restoring from the `originalFile` data in `write_file`/`edit_file` tool results | M |
+| 4.5 | **Interactive session picker** — Replace the text-based `/session list` with an interactive fuzzy-filterable list (up/down arrows to select, enter to switch) | L |
+| 4.6 | **Tab completion for tool arguments** — Extend `SlashCommandHelper` to complete file paths after `/export`, model names after `/model`, session IDs after `/session switch` | M |
+
+### Phase 5: Color Themes & Configuration
+
+**Goal**: User-customizable visual appearance.
+
+| Task | Description | Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| 5.1 | **Named color themes** — Add `dark` (current default), `light`, `solarized`, `catppuccin` themes. Wire to the existing `Config` tool's `theme` setting | M |
+| 5.2 | **ANSI-256 / truecolor detection** — Detect terminal capabilities and fall back gracefully (no colors → 16 colors → 256 → truecolor) | M |
+| 5.3 | **Configurable spinner style** — Allow choosing between braille dots, bar, moon phases, etc. | S |
+| 5.4 | **Banner customization** — Make the ASCII art banner optional or configurable via settings | S |
+
+### Phase 6: Full-Screen TUI Mode (Stretch)
+
+**Goal**: Optional alternate-screen layout for power users.
+
+| Task | Description | Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| 6.1 | **Add `ratatui` dependency** — Introduce `ratatui` (terminal UI framework) as an optional dependency for the full-screen mode | S |
+| 6.2 | **Split-pane layout** — Top pane: conversation with scrollback; Bottom pane: input area; Right sidebar (optional): tool status/todo list | XL |
+| 6.3 | **Scrollable conversation view** — Navigate past messages with PgUp/PgDn, search within conversation | L |
+| 6.4 | **Keyboard shortcuts panel** — Show `?` help overlay with all keybindings | M |
+| 6.5 | **Mouse support** — Click to expand tool results, scroll conversation, select text for copy | L |
+
+---
+
+## 3. Priority Recommendation
+
+### Immediate (High Impact, Moderate Effort)
+
+1. **Phase 0** — Essential cleanup. The 3,159-line `main.rs` is the #1 maintenance risk and blocks clean TUI additions.
+2. **Phase 1.1–1.2** — Status bar with live tokens. Highest-impact UX win: users constantly want to know token usage.
+3. **Phase 2.4** — Remove artificial delay. Low effort, immediately noticeable improvement.
+4. **Phase 3.1** — Collapsible tool output. Large bash outputs currently wreck readability.
+
+### Near-Term (Next Sprint)
+
+5. **Phase 2.1** — Live markdown rendering. Makes the core interaction feel polished.
+6. **Phase 3.2** — Syntax-highlighted tool results.
+7. **Phase 3.4** — Diff-aware edit display.
+8. **Phase 4.1** — Colored diff for `/diff`.
+
+### Longer-Term
+
+9. **Phase 5** — Color themes (user demand-driven).
+10. **Phase 4.2–4.6** — Enhanced navigation and commands.
+11. **Phase 6** — Full-screen mode (major undertaking, evaluate after earlier phases ship).
+
+---
+
+## 4. Architecture Recommendations
+
+### Module Structure After Phase 0
+
+```
+crates/rusty-claude-cli/src/
+├── main.rs              # Entrypoint, arg dispatch only (~100 lines)
+├── args.rs              # CLI argument parsing (consolidate existing two parsers)
+├── app.rs               # LiveCli struct, REPL loop, turn execution
+├── format.rs            # All report formatting (status, cost, model, permissions, etc.)
+├── session_mgr.rs       # Session CRUD: create, resume, list, switch, persist
+├── init.rs              # Repo initialization (unchanged)
+├── input.rs             # Line editor (unchanged, minor extensions)
+├── render.rs            # TerminalRenderer, Spinner (extended)
+└── tui/
+    ├── mod.rs           # TUI module root
+    ├── status_bar.rs    # Persistent bottom status line
+    ├── tool_panel.rs    # Tool call visualization (boxes, timelines, collapsible)
+    ├── diff_view.rs     # Colored diff rendering
+    ├── pager.rs         # Internal pager for long outputs
+    └── theme.rs         # Color theme definitions and selection
+```
+
+### Key Design Principles
+
+1. **Keep the inline REPL as the default** — Full-screen TUI should be opt-in (`--tui` flag)
+2. **Everything testable without a terminal** — All formatting functions take `&mut impl Write`, never assume stdout directly
+3. **Streaming-first** — Rendering should work incrementally, not buffering the entire response
+4. **Respect `crossterm` for all terminal control** — Don't mix raw ANSI escape codes with crossterm (the current codebase does this in the startup banner)
+5. **Feature-gate heavy dependencies** — `ratatui` should be behind a `full-tui` feature flag
+
+---
+
+## 5. Risk Assessment
+
+| Risk | Mitigation |
+|---|---|
+| Breaking the working REPL during refactor | Phase 0 is pure restructuring with existing test coverage as safety net |
+| Terminal compatibility issues (tmux, SSH, Windows) | Rely on crossterm's abstraction; test in degraded environments |
+| Performance regression with rich rendering | Profile before/after; keep the fast path (raw streaming) always available |
+| Scope creep into Phase 6 | Ship Phases 0–3 as a coherent release before starting Phase 6 |
+| `app.rs` vs `main.rs` confusion | Phase 0.2 explicitly resolves this by removing the legacy `CliApp` |

+# Mock LLM parity harness
+
+This milestone adds a deterministic Anthropic-compatible mock service plus a reproducible CLI harness for the Rust `claw` binary.
+
+## Artifacts
+
+- `crates/mock-anthropic-service/` — mock `/v1/messages` service
+- `crates/rusty-claude-cli/tests/mock_parity_harness.rs` — end-to-end clean-environment harness
+- `scripts/run_mock_parity_harness.sh` — convenience wrapper
+
+## Scenarios
+
+The harness runs these scripted scenarios against a fresh workspace and isolated environment variables:
+
+1. `streaming_text`
+2. `read_file_roundtrip`
+3. `grep_chunk_assembly`
+4. `write_file_allowed`
+5. `write_file_denied`
+6. `multi_tool_turn_roundtrip`
+7. `bash_stdout_roundtrip`
+8. `bash_permission_prompt_approved`
+9. `bash_permission_prompt_denied`
+10. `plugin_tool_roundtrip`
+
+## Run
+
+```bash
+cd rust/
+./scripts/run_mock_parity_harness.sh
+```
+
+Behavioral checklist / parity diff:
+
+```bash
+cd rust/
+python3 scripts/run_mock_parity_diff.py
+```
+
+Scenario-to-PARITY mappings live in `mock_parity_scenarios.json`.
+
+## Manual mock server
+
+```bash
+cd rust/
+cargo run -p mock-anthropic-service -- --bind 127.0.0.1:0
+```
+
+The server prints `MOCK_ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=...`; point `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` at that URL and use any non-empty `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`.

+| **WebSearch** | `tools` | search query execution — **moderate parity** |
+| **TodoWrite** | `tools` | todo/note persistence — **moderate parity** |
+| **Skill** | `tools` | skill discovery/install — **moderate parity** |
+| **Agent** | `tools` | agent delegation — **moderate parity** |

+
+### Stubs Only (surface parity, no behavior)
+
+| Tool | Status | Notes |
+|------|--------|-------|
+| **AskUserQuestion** | stub | needs live user I/O integration |
+| **McpAuth** | stub | needs full auth UX beyond the MCP lifecycle bridge |
+| **RemoteTrigger** | stub | needs HTTP client |
+| **TestingPermission** | stub | test-only, low priority |
+
+## Slash Commands: 67/141 upstream entries
+
+- 27 original specs (pre-today) — all with real handlers
+- 40 new specs — parse + stub handler ("not yet implemented")
+- Remaining ~74 upstream entries are internal modules/dialogs/steps, not user `/commands`
+
+### Behavioral Feature Checkpoints (completed work + remaining gaps)
+
+**Bash tool — 9/9 requested validation submodules complete:**
+- [x] `sedValidation` — validate sed commands before execution
+- [x] `pathValidation` — validate file paths in commands
+- [x] `readOnlyValidation` — block writes in read-only mode
+- [x] `destructiveCommandWarning` — warn on rm -rf, etc.
+- [x] `commandSemantics` — classify command intent
+- [x] `bashPermissions` — permission gating per command type
+- [x] `bashSecurity` — security checks
+- [x] `modeValidation` — validate against current permission mode
+- [x] `shouldUseSandbox` — sandbox decision logic
+
+Harness note: milestone 2 validates bash success plus workspace-write escalation approve/deny flows; dedicated validation submodules landed in `36dac6c`, and on-main runtime also carries sandbox + permission enforcement.
+
+**File tools — completed checkpoint:**
+- [x] Path traversal prevention (symlink following, ../ escapes)
+- [x] Size limits on read/write
+- [x] Binary file detection
+- [x] Permission mode enforcement (read-only vs workspace-write)
+
+Harness note: read_file, grep_search, write_file allow/deny, and multi-tool same-turn assembly are now covered by the mock parity harness; file edge cases + permission enforcement landed in `a98f2b6` and `336f820`.
+
+**Config/Plugin/MCP flows:**
+- [x] Full MCP server lifecycle (connect, list tools, call tool, disconnect)
+- [ ] Plugin install/enable/disable/uninstall full flow
+- [ ] Config merge precedence (user > project > local)
+
+Harness note: external plugin discovery + execution is now covered via `plugin_tool_roundtrip`; MCP lifecycle landed in `cc0f92e`, while plugin lifecycle + config merge precedence remain open.
+
+## Runtime Behavioral Gaps
+
+- [x] Permission enforcement across all tools (read-only, workspace-write, danger-full-access)
+- [ ] Output truncation (large stdout/file content)
+- [ ] Session compaction behavior matching
+- [ ] Token counting / cost tracking accuracy
+- [x] Streaming response support validated by the mock parity harness
+
+Harness note: current coverage now includes write-file denial, bash escalation approve/deny, and plugin workspace-write execution paths; permission enforcement landed in `336f820`.
+
+## Migration Readiness
+
+- [x] `PARITY.md` maintained and honest
+- [ ] No `#[ignore]` tests hiding failures (only 1 allowed: `live_stream_smoke_test`)
+- [ ] CI green on every commit
+- [ ] Codebase shape clean for handoff

-cd rust
-cargo test --workspace --exclude compat-harness
-```
-
-## Quick start
-
-### Show help
-
-```bash
-cd rust
+# Inspect available commands
+cd rust/
 cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- --help
+
+# Build the workspace
+cargo build --workspace
+
+# Run the interactive REPL
+cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- --model claude-opus-4-6
+
+# One-shot prompt
+cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- prompt "explain this codebase"
+
+# JSON output for automation
+cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- --output-format json prompt "summarize src/main.rs"
 ```
 
-### Print version
+## Configuration
+
+Set your API credentials:
 
 ```bash
-cd rust
-cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- --version
+export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-..."
+# Or use a proxy
+export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL="https://your-proxy.com"
 ```
 
-### Login with OAuth
-
-Configure `settings.json` with an `oauth` block containing `clientId`, `authorizeUrl`, `tokenUrl`, optional `callbackPort`, and optional `scopes`, then run:
+Or authenticate via OAuth and let the CLI persist credentials locally:
 
 ```bash
-cd rust
 cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- login
 ```
 
-This opens the browser, listens on the configured localhost callback, exchanges the auth code for tokens, and stores OAuth credentials in `~/.claude/credentials.json` (or `$CLAUDE_CONFIG_HOME/credentials.json`).
+## Mock parity harness
 
-### Logout
+The workspace now includes a deterministic Anthropic-compatible mock service and a clean-environment CLI harness for end-to-end parity checks.
 
 ```bash
-cd rust
-cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- logout
+cd rust/
+
+# Run the scripted clean-environment harness
+./scripts/run_mock_parity_harness.sh
+
+# Or start the mock service manually for ad hoc CLI runs
+cargo run -p mock-anthropic-service -- --bind 127.0.0.1:0
 ```
 
-This removes only the stored OAuth credentials and preserves unrelated JSON fields in `credentials.json`.
+Harness coverage:
 
-### Self-update
+- `streaming_text`
+- `read_file_roundtrip`
+- `grep_chunk_assembly`
+- `write_file_allowed`
+- `write_file_denied`
+- `multi_tool_turn_roundtrip`
+- `bash_stdout_roundtrip`
+- `bash_permission_prompt_approved`
+- `bash_permission_prompt_denied`
+- `plugin_tool_roundtrip`
 
-```bash
-cd rust
-cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- self-update
-```
+Primary artifacts:
 
-The command checks the latest GitHub release for `instructkr/clawd-code`, compares it to the current binary version, downloads the matching binary asset plus checksum manifest, verifies SHA-256, replaces the current executable, and prints the release changelog. If no published release or matching asset exists, it exits safely with an explanatory message.
+- `crates/mock-anthropic-service/` — reusable mock Anthropic-compatible service
+- `crates/rusty-claude-cli/tests/mock_parity_harness.rs` — clean-env CLI harness
+- `scripts/run_mock_parity_harness.sh` — reproducible wrapper
+- `scripts/run_mock_parity_diff.py` — scenario checklist + PARITY mapping runner
+- `mock_parity_scenarios.json` — scenario-to-PARITY manifest

+## Model Aliases
 
-```bash
-cd rust
-cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- prompt "Summarize the architecture of this repository"
-```
+Short names resolve to the latest model versions:
 
-Use a specific model:
+| Alias | Resolves To |
+|-------|------------|
+| `opus` | `claude-opus-4-6` |
+| `sonnet` | `claude-sonnet-4-6` |
+| `haiku` | `claude-haiku-4-5-20251213` |
 
-```bash
-cd rust
-cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- --model claude-sonnet-4-20250514 prompt "List the key crates in this workspace"
-```
+## CLI Flags and Commands
 
-Restrict enabled tools in an interactive session:
-
-```bash
-cd rust
-cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- --allowedTools read,glob
-```
-
-Bootstrap Claude project files for the current repo:
-
-```bash
-cd rust
-cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- init
-```
-
-### 2) REPL mode
-
-Start the interactive shell:
-
-```bash
-cd rust
-cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli --
-```
-
-Inside the REPL, useful commands include:
+Representative current surface:
 
 ```text
-/help
-/status
-/model claude-sonnet-4-20250514
-/permissions workspace-write
-/cost
-/compact
-/memory
-/config
-/init
-/diff
-/version
-/export notes.txt
-/sessions
-/session list
-/exit
+claw [OPTIONS] [COMMAND]
+
+Flags:
+  --model MODEL
+  --output-format text|json
+  --permission-mode MODE
+  --dangerously-skip-permissions
+  --allowedTools TOOLS
+  --resume [SESSION.jsonl|session-id|latest]
+  --version, -V
+
+Top-level commands:
+  prompt <text>
+  help
+  version
+  status
+  sandbox
+  dump-manifests
+  bootstrap-plan
+  agents
+  mcp
+  skills
+  system-prompt
+  login
+  logout
+  init
 ```
 
-### 3) Resume an existing session
-
-Inspect or maintain a saved session file without entering the REPL:
+The command surface is moving quickly. For the canonical live help text, run:
 
 ```bash
-cd rust
-cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- --resume session-123456 /status /compact /cost
+cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- --help
 ```
 
-You can also inspect memory/config state for a restored session:
+## Slash Commands (REPL)
 
-```bash
-cd rust
-cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- --resume ~/.claude/sessions/session-123456.json /memory /config
+Tab completion expands slash commands, model aliases, permission modes, and recent session IDs.
+
+The REPL now exposes a much broader surface than the original minimal shell:
+
+- session / visibility: `/help`, `/status`, `/sandbox`, `/cost`, `/resume`, `/session`, `/version`, `/usage`, `/stats`
+- workspace / git: `/compact`, `/clear`, `/config`, `/memory`, `/init`, `/diff`, `/commit`, `/pr`, `/issue`, `/export`, `/hooks`, `/files`, `/branch`, `/release-notes`, `/add-dir`
+- discovery / debugging: `/mcp`, `/agents`, `/skills`, `/doctor`, `/tasks`, `/context`, `/desktop`, `/ide`
+- automation / analysis: `/review`, `/advisor`, `/insights`, `/security-review`, `/subagent`, `/team`, `/telemetry`, `/providers`, `/cron`, and more
+- plugin management: `/plugin` (with aliases `/plugins`, `/marketplace`)
+
+Notable claw-first surfaces now available directly in slash form:
+- `/skills [list|install <path>|help]`
+- `/agents [list|help]`
+- `/mcp [list|show <server>|help]`
+- `/doctor`
+- `/plugin [list|install <path>|enable <name>|disable <name>|uninstall <id>|update <id>]`
+- `/subagent [list|steer <target> <msg>|kill <id>]`
+
+See [`../USAGE.md`](../USAGE.md) for usage examples and run `cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- --help` for the live canonical command list.

+# TUI Enhancement Plan — Claw Code (`rusty-claude-cli`)
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+This plan covers a comprehensive analysis of the current terminal user interface and proposes phased enhancements that will transform the existing REPL/prompt CLI into a polished, modern TUI experience — while preserving the existing clean architecture and test coverage.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Current Architecture Analysis
+
+### Crate Map
+
+| Crate | Purpose | Lines | TUI Relevance |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `rusty-claude-cli` | Main binary: REPL loop, arg parsing, rendering, API bridge | ~3,600 | **Primary TUI surface** |
+| `runtime` | Session, conversation loop, config, permissions, compaction | ~5,300 | Provides data/state |
+| `api` | Anthropic HTTP client + SSE streaming | ~1,500 | Provides stream events |
+| `commands` | Slash command metadata/parsing/help | ~470 | Drives command dispatch |
+| `tools` | 18 built-in tool implementations | ~3,500 | Tool execution display |
+
+### Current TUI Components
+
+> Note: The legacy prototype files `app.rs` and `args.rs` were removed on 2026-04-05.
+> References below describe future extraction targets, not current tracked source files.
+
+| Component | File | What It Does Today | Quality |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **Input** | `input.rs` (269 lines) | `rustyline`-based line editor with slash-command tab completion, Shift+Enter newline, history | ✅ Solid |
+| **Rendering** | `render.rs` (641 lines) | Markdown→terminal rendering (headings, lists, tables, code blocks with syntect highlighting, blockquotes), spinner widget | ✅ Good |
+| **App/REPL loop** | `main.rs` (3,159 lines) | The monolithic `LiveCli` struct: REPL loop, all slash command handlers, streaming output, tool call display, permission prompting, session management | ⚠️ Monolithic |
+
+### Key Dependencies
+
+- **crossterm 0.28** — terminal control (cursor, colors, clear)
+- **pulldown-cmark 0.13** — Markdown parsing
+- **syntect 5** — syntax highlighting
+- **rustyline 15** — line editing with completion
+- **serde_json** — tool I/O formatting
+
+### Strengths
+
+1. **Clean rendering pipeline**: Markdown rendering is well-structured with state tracking, table rendering, code highlighting
+2. **Rich tool display**: Tool calls get box-drawing borders (`╭─ name ─╮`), results show ✓/✗ icons
+3. **Comprehensive slash commands**: 15 commands covering model switching, permissions, sessions, config, diff, export
+4. **Session management**: Full persistence, resume, list, switch, compaction
+5. **Permission prompting**: Interactive Y/N approval for restricted tool calls
+6. **Thorough tests**: Every formatting function, every parse path has unit tests
+
+### Weaknesses & Gaps
+
+1. **`main.rs` is a 3,159-line monolith** — all REPL logic, formatting, API bridging, session management, and tests in one file
+2. **No alternate-screen / full-screen layout** — everything is inline scrolling output
+3. **No progress bars** — only a single braille spinner; no indication of streaming progress or token counts during generation
+4. **No visual diff rendering** — `/diff` just dumps raw git diff text
+5. **No syntax highlighting in streamed output** — markdown rendering only applies to tool results, not to the main assistant response stream
+6. **No status bar / HUD** — model, tokens, session info not visible during interaction
+7. **No image/attachment preview** — `SendUserMessage` resolves attachments but never displays them
+8. **Streaming is char-by-char with artificial delay** — `stream_markdown` sleeps 8ms per whitespace-delimited chunk
+9. **No color theme customization** — hardcoded `ColorTheme::default()`
+10. **No resize handling** — no terminal size awareness for wrapping, truncation, or layout
+11. **Historical dual app split** — the repo previously carried a separate `CliApp` prototype alongside `LiveCli`; the prototype is gone, but the monolithic `main.rs` still needs extraction
+12. **No pager for long outputs** — `/status`, `/config`, `/memory` can overflow the viewport
+13. **Tool results not collapsible** — large bash outputs flood the screen
+14. **No thinking/reasoning indicator** — when the model is in "thinking" mode, no visual distinction
+15. **No auto-complete for tool arguments** — only slash command names complete
+
+---
+
+## 2. Enhancement Plan
+
+### Phase 0: Structural Cleanup (Foundation)
+
+**Goal**: Break the monolith, remove dead code, establish the module structure for TUI work.
+
+| Task | Description | Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| 0.1 | **Extract `LiveCli` into `app.rs`** — Move the entire `LiveCli` struct, its impl, and helpers (`format_*`, `render_*`, session management) out of `main.rs` into focused modules: `app.rs` (core), `format.rs` (report formatting), `session_manager.rs` (session CRUD) | M |
+| 0.2 | **Keep the legacy `CliApp` removed** — The old `CliApp` prototype has already been deleted; if any unique ideas remain valuable (for example stream event handler patterns), reintroduce them intentionally inside the active `LiveCli` extraction rather than restoring the old file wholesale | S |
+| 0.3 | **Extract `main.rs` arg parsing** — The current `parse_args()` is still a hand-rolled parser in `main.rs`. If parsing is extracted later, do it into a newly-introduced module intentionally rather than reviving the removed prototype `args.rs` by accident | S |
+| 0.4 | **Create a `tui/` module** — Introduce `crates/rusty-claude-cli/src/tui/mod.rs` as the namespace for all new TUI components: `status_bar.rs`, `layout.rs`, `tool_panel.rs`, etc. | S |
+
+### Phase 1: Status Bar & Live HUD
+
+**Goal**: Persistent information display during interaction.
+
+| Task | Description | Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| 1.1 | **Terminal-size-aware status line** — Use `crossterm::terminal::size()` to render a bottom-pinned status bar showing: model name, permission mode, session ID, cumulative token count, estimated cost | M |
+| 1.2 | **Live token counter** — Update the status bar in real-time as `AssistantEvent::Usage` and `AssistantEvent::TextDelta` events arrive during streaming | M |
+| 1.3 | **Turn duration timer** — Show elapsed time for the current turn (the `showTurnDuration` config already exists in Config tool but isn't wired up) | S |
+| 1.4 | **Git branch indicator** — Display the current git branch in the status bar (already parsed via `parse_git_status_metadata`) | S |
+
+### Phase 2: Enhanced Streaming Output
+
+**Goal**: Make the main response stream visually rich and responsive.
+
+| Task | Description | Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| 2.1 | **Live markdown rendering** — Instead of raw text streaming, buffer text deltas and incrementally render Markdown as it arrives (heading detection, bold/italic, inline code). The existing `TerminalRenderer::render_markdown` can be adapted for incremental use | L |
+| 2.2 | **Thinking indicator** — When extended thinking/reasoning is active, show a distinct animated indicator (e.g., `🧠 Reasoning...` with pulsing dots or a different spinner) instead of the generic `🦀 Thinking...` | S |
+| 2.3 | **Streaming progress bar** — Add an optional horizontal progress indicator below the spinner showing approximate completion (based on max_tokens vs. output_tokens so far) | M |
+| 2.4 | **Remove artificial stream delay** — The current `stream_markdown` sleeps 8ms per chunk. For tool results this is fine, but for the main response stream it should be immediate or configurable | S |
+
+### Phase 3: Tool Call Visualization
+
+**Goal**: Make tool execution legible and navigable.
+
+| Task | Description | Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| 3.1 | **Collapsible tool output** — For tool results longer than N lines (configurable, default 15), show a summary with `[+] Expand` hint; pressing a key reveals the full output. Initially implement as truncation with a "full output saved to file" fallback | M |
+| 3.2 | **Syntax-highlighted tool results** — When tool results contain code (detected by tool name — `bash` stdout, `read_file` content, `REPL` output), apply syntect highlighting rather than rendering as plain text | M |
+| 3.3 | **Tool call timeline** — For multi-tool turns, show a compact summary: `🔧 bash → ✓ | read_file → ✓ | edit_file → ✓ (3 tools, 1.2s)` after all tool calls complete | S |
+| 3.4 | **Diff-aware edit_file display** — When `edit_file` succeeds, show a colored unified diff of the change instead of just `✓ edit_file: path` | M |
+| 3.5 | **Permission prompt enhancement** — Style the approval prompt with box drawing, color the tool name, show a one-line summary of what the tool will do | S |
+
+### Phase 4: Enhanced Slash Commands & Navigation
+
+**Goal**: Improve information display and add missing features.
+
+| Task | Description | Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| 4.1 | **Colored `/diff` output** — Parse the git diff and render it with red/green coloring for removals/additions, similar to `delta` or `diff-so-fancy` | M |
+| 4.2 | **Pager for long outputs** — When `/status`, `/config`, `/memory`, or `/diff` produce output longer than the terminal height, pipe through an internal pager (scroll with j/k/q) or external `$PAGER` | M |
+| 4.3 | **`/search` command** — Add a new command to search conversation history by keyword | M |
+| 4.4 | **`/undo` command** — Undo the last file edit by restoring from the `originalFile` data in `write_file`/`edit_file` tool results | M |
+| 4.5 | **Interactive session picker** — Replace the text-based `/session list` with an interactive fuzzy-filterable list (up/down arrows to select, enter to switch) | L |
+| 4.6 | **Tab completion for tool arguments** — Extend `SlashCommandHelper` to complete file paths after `/export`, model names after `/model`, session IDs after `/session switch` | M |
+
+### Phase 5: Color Themes & Configuration
+
+**Goal**: User-customizable visual appearance.
+
+| Task | Description | Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| 5.1 | **Named color themes** — Add `dark` (current default), `light`, `solarized`, `catppuccin` themes. Wire to the existing `Config` tool's `theme` setting | M |
+| 5.2 | **ANSI-256 / truecolor detection** — Detect terminal capabilities and fall back gracefully (no colors → 16 colors → 256 → truecolor) | M |
+| 5.3 | **Configurable spinner style** — Allow choosing between braille dots, bar, moon phases, etc. | S |
+| 5.4 | **Banner customization** — Make the ASCII art banner optional or configurable via settings | S |
+
+### Phase 6: Full-Screen TUI Mode (Stretch)
+
+**Goal**: Optional alternate-screen layout for power users.
+
+| Task | Description | Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| 6.1 | **Add `ratatui` dependency** — Introduce `ratatui` (terminal UI framework) as an optional dependency for the full-screen mode | S |
+| 6.2 | **Split-pane layout** — Top pane: conversation with scrollback; Bottom pane: input area; Right sidebar (optional): tool status/todo list | XL |
+| 6.3 | **Scrollable conversation view** — Navigate past messages with PgUp/PgDn, search within conversation | L |
+| 6.4 | **Keyboard shortcuts panel** — Show `?` help overlay with all keybindings | M |
+| 6.5 | **Mouse support** — Click to expand tool results, scroll conversation, select text for copy | L |
+
+---
+
+## 3. Priority Recommendation
+
+### Immediate (High Impact, Moderate Effort)
+
+1. **Phase 0** — Essential cleanup. The 3,159-line `main.rs` is the #1 maintenance risk and blocks clean TUI additions.
+2. **Phase 1.1–1.2** — Status bar with live tokens. Highest-impact UX win: users constantly want to know token usage.
+3. **Phase 2.4** — Remove artificial delay. Low effort, immediately noticeable improvement.
+4. **Phase 3.1** — Collapsible tool output. Large bash outputs currently wreck readability.
+
+### Near-Term (Next Sprint)
+
+5. **Phase 2.1** — Live markdown rendering. Makes the core interaction feel polished.
+6. **Phase 3.2** — Syntax-highlighted tool results.
+7. **Phase 3.4** — Diff-aware edit display.
+8. **Phase 4.1** — Colored diff for `/diff`.
+
+### Longer-Term
+
+9. **Phase 5** — Color themes (user demand-driven).
+10. **Phase 4.2–4.6** — Enhanced navigation and commands.
+11. **Phase 6** — Full-screen mode (major undertaking, evaluate after earlier phases ship).

+### Key Design Principles
+
+1. **Keep the inline REPL as the default** — Full-screen TUI should be opt-in (`--tui` flag)
+2. **Everything testable without a terminal** — All formatting functions take `&mut impl Write`, never assume stdout directly
+3. **Streaming-first** — Rendering should work incrementally, not buffering the entire response
+4. **Respect `crossterm` for all terminal control** — Don't mix raw ANSI escape codes with crossterm (the current codebase does this in the startup banner)
+5. **Feature-gate heavy dependencies** — `ratatui` should be behind a `full-tui` feature flag
+
+---
+
+## 5. Risk Assessment
+
+| Risk | Mitigation |
+|---|---|
+| Breaking the working REPL during refactor | Phase 0 is pure restructuring with existing test coverage as safety net |
+| Terminal compatibility issues (tmux, SSH, Windows) | Rely on crossterm's abstraction; test in degraded environments |
+| Performance regression with rich rendering | Profile before/after; keep the fast path (raw streaming) always available |
+| Scope creep into Phase 6 | Ship Phases 0–3 as a coherent release before starting Phase 6 |
+| Historical `app.rs` vs `main.rs` confusion | Keep the legacy prototype removed and avoid reintroducing a second app surface accidentally during extraction |
+
