chat_input

Commands that execute regardless of any busy state.

Power-user commands kept out of autocomplete and help.

Regex matching [Pasted text #N] or [Pasted text #N +M lines].

Rows the panel reports at its tallest: query, results, and wrapped hint.

This is the ceiling on what show() can report, so it is what ChatInputBox reserves when fitting a manual composer height and what the panel's own max-height clamps to. _hint_rows() clamps the hint estimate to PROMPT_SEARCH_MAX_HINT_ROWS so the two can never disagree -- the clamp lives there, not in show(), because on_resize re-measures through the same helper without going through show().

Closed set of actions an InputActionButton can dispatch.

Return autocomplete entries for slash commands.

Return the number of newline characters in text.

Replace all paste placeholders in text with their full content.

Placeholders whose IDs are not in pasted_contents are left unchanged.

Format a paste placeholder reference string.

Return whether text should be collapsed into a placeholder.

Collapses when the text exceeds the character threshold or the line threshold.

Return prompts containing the query, case-insensitively.

Return a prompt's first non-empty line for a one-row summary.

A single autocomplete entry for the slash-command controller.

Stored content for a collapsed paste.

The paste's numeric identifier is the key under which this record is stored in the input's paste map, so it is not duplicated on the record.

TextArea that detects paste-like keystroke bursts.

Subclasses drive the state machine from their own _on_key by calling the helper methods here, and override the policy hooks (_in_slash_command_context, _dispatch_burst_payload) as needed. The base inserts a flushed burst verbatim; collapsing into placeholders is layered on by CollapsingPasteTextArea.

Query field for the inline prompt search panel.

Plain Input apart from the class name, which lets ChatInput filter Input.Changed / Input.Submitted messages down to this field, plus bindings for the keys the panel owns while focused.

Inline prompt history search rendered above the input row.

Display-only: ChatInput owns the query, filtered snapshot, and selection, drives key handling, and re-opens the modal tier. The panel mirrors CompletionPopup: hidden by default, rebuilt via generation counters so a stale async rebuild cannot re-show a dismissed panel, and reports its rendered row count so ChatInputBox can reserve space.

A clickable completion option in the autocomplete popup.

Small clickable button shown at the right edge of the chat input row.

Provides discoverable mouse alternatives to keyboard shortcuts for clearing ([ X ]) and copying ([ COPY ]) the current draft.

Popup widget that displays completion suggestions as clickable options.

TextArea subclass with custom key handling for chat input.

Modifier-Enter / Ctrl+J newline bindings and the VSCode backslash+enter fallback are inherited from PasteBurstTextArea.

Bordered box that owns the chat composer size.

Sizing is either automatic (content-driven, the default) or manual, and _requested_height is the discriminator: None means automatic.

A manual size separates intent from what is rendered. The requested height is what the user dragged to and is preserved verbatim; the applied height is re-derived on every relayout by fitting that request between a content floor and whichever ceiling is currently tightest. So a completion popup can transiently squeeze the composer and it springs back when the popup closes, and a terminal shrink does not destroy the request.

ChatInput composes the children and drives this box through set_manual_height, toggle_expanded, and refresh_content_height.

Drag target docked over the chat input's top border.

Only the background is transparent: the handle sits on the layer above the box's border and would blank the line it covers, so render repaints the horizontal rule itself.

The handle reports pointer geometry and knows nothing about heights; the parent decides what a drag means.

Chat input widget with prompt, multi-line text, autocomplete, and history.

Features:

• Multi-line input with TextArea
• Enter to submit, modifier key for newlines (see config.newline_shortcut)
• Up/Down arrows for command history at input boundaries (start/end of text)
• Autocomplete for @ (files), @@ (threads), and / (commands)
• Drag the top border to resize the composer; double-click it to expand to the maximum height, or to drop a manual height back to content-driven sizing
