| description | Manage termloop debug windows and related debug menu wiring for Sidebar Debug, Background Debug, and Menu Bar Extra Debug. Use this when the user asks to open/tune these debug controls, add or adjust Debug menu entries, or capture/copy a combined debug config snapshot. |
termloop Debug Windows
Keep this workflow focused on existing debug windows and menu entries. Do not add a new utility/debug control window unless the user asks explicitly.
Workflow
- Verify debug menu wiring in
Sources/cmuxApp.swift under CommandMenu("Debug").
- Menu path in app:
Debug → Debug Windows → window entry.
- The
Debug menu only exists in DEBUG builds (./scripts/reload.sh --tag ...).
- Release builds (
reloadp.sh, reloads.sh) do not show this menu.
- Keep these actions available in
Menu("Debug Windows"):
Sidebar Debug…Background Debug…Menu Bar Extra Debug…Open All Debug Windows
- Reuse existing per-window copy buttons (
Copy Config) in each debug window before adding new UI.
- For one combined payload, run:
skills/cmux-debug-windows/scripts/debug_windows_snapshot.sh --copy
- After code edits, run build + tagged reload:
xcodebuild -project GhosttyTabs.xcodeproj -scheme termloop -configuration Debug -destination 'platform=macOS' build
./scripts/reload.sh --tag <tag>
Key Files
Sources/cmuxApp.swift: Debug menu entries and debug window controllers/views.Sources/AppDelegate.swift: Menu bar extra debug settings payload and defaults keys.
Script
scripts/debug_windows_snapshot.sh
Purpose:
- Reads current debug-related defaults values.
- Prints one combined snapshot for sidebar/background/menu bar extra.
- Optionally copies it to clipboard.
Examples:
skills/cmux-debug-windows/scripts/debug_windows_snapshot.sh
skills/cmux-debug-windows/scripts/debug_windows_snapshot.sh --copy
skills/cmux-debug-windows/scripts/debug_windows_snapshot.sh --domain <bundle-id> --copy
