🐛 Bug Fixes

Fixed text disappearing or flickering when sending new messages after loading a conversation from history.
Fixed scroll not going to bottom when loading an existing conversation from history.
**CodeMirror "Ranges must be added sorted" crash.** Three extensions could add decorations in unsorted order causing CodeMirror to crash:
- diffDecorations.ts — Sort was (from, to) but CodeMirror requires (from, startSide, to). Fixed by tracking startSide on each decoration and sorting by (from, startSide, to).
- rainbowBrackets.ts — Visible ranges expanded to line boundaries could overlap, causing duplicate/unsorted bracket decorations. Fixed by tracking maxProcessed to skip already-processed positions and sorting all brackets before adding.
- indentGuides.ts — Same overlapping visible ranges risk. Fixed with maxProcessed guard.
- Chat UI. Fixed the chat and removed a lot of noisy cards.
- New Chat Creation. Fixed a bug when creating a new chat where the model received no data at all.
- Zaguán Coder Daemon. Removed artificial limitation on the number of turns models could do.
- Chat UI. Fixed the chat and removed a lot of noisy cards.
- New Chat Creation. Fixed a bug when creating a new chat where the model received no data at all.
- Zaguán Coder Daemon. Removed artificial limitation on the number of turns models could do.
Chat UI. Fixed the chat and removed a lot of noisy cards.
New Chat Creation. Fixed a bug when creating a new chat where the model received no data at all.
Zaguán Coder Daemon. Removed artificial limitation on the number of turns models could do.
Chat becomes inert after UI reload. After a UI reload (e.g. crash recovery), the frontend's loading state was false even though the backend was still streaming. Added get_chat_status Tauri command that returns true if the backend is streaming. Frontend init() now calls get_chat_status and restores loading = true if the backend is still active. Files: chat.rs, lib.rs, useChat.ts
Can't scroll to bottom after crash/reload. After reload, the scroll container starts at the top. The isUserAtBottomRef quickly becomes false from the scroll handler, so streaming auto-scroll stops working. Added an initial scroll-to-bottom effect that fires once when messages first load, ensuring the user sees the latest content and isUserAtBottomRef stays true for streaming auto-scroll. Files: ChatPanel.tsx
Fixed the Blade Terminal echo bug when the model is using the run_command tool call.
Fixed run_command tool calls in AI Chat appearing above already run (or failed) commands instead of below them.
Fixed bug in the Ollama and Ollama Cloud implementation that resulted in errors.
Diff view showing up on wrong lines. Fixed issue where diff view would appear on incorrect lines due to stale data in the editor. Added proper cleanup and state invalidation when editor content changes. Files: DiffView.tsx, EditorPane.tsx
Model selector sluggishness. Reduced avoidable work in the compact selector by memoizing derived lists and selected model. Removed delayed/smooth scroll on open (which can feel laggy) and switched to requestAnimationFrame + instant nearest scroll. Files: CompactModelSelector.tsx
History titles missing. Added a resilient fallback title strategy: use conversation.title if present, else use preview, else synthesize from last active timestamp (Conversation X ago). Files: HistoryTab.tsx
Natural chat autoscroll + user can interrupt with wheel. Reworked autoscroll to use the real scroll container ref. Split behavior: scroll on new message if user is at bottom / just sent; during streaming, only keep following while user remains at bottom. This preserves manual scroll interruption. Files: ChatPanel.tsx
Settings save feels slow. Changed save flow to close modal immediately, then persist in background. Keeps UI responsive while save + model refresh continue asynchronously. Files: SettingsModal.tsx
General snappiness + launch flicker. Removed duplicate no-tab editor rendering path that could cause visual churn. Tightened startup flow to show window after first frame and fade out loading overlay immediately (no extra nested delays). Files: Layout.tsx, main.tsx
Modernized title bar buttons. Updated window controls to compact rounded buttons with tighter spacing and better active feedback. Files: TitleBar.tsx
Terminal too close to sidebar shadow. Increased left padding in terminal content area. Files: TerminalPane.tsx
Fixed crash in read_file_range on out-of-bounds slice. Added bounds clamping to prevent panic when requesting lines beyond EOF (e.g., start_line: 350 on a 259-line file). Now returns safe empty output for extreme or inverted ranges instead of crashing.
Fixed reasoning blocks being dropped during final answer transition. Changed filter logic to preserve reasoning blocks when clearing stale text content. Files: useChat.ts
Fixed caret sync issues in Command Center textarea. Added shared autosize helper for consistent height updates and implemented explicit Shift+Enter newline insertion with proper caret position restoration. Files: CommandCenter.tsx
