This regression may have existed on Sequoia too, but I only saw it on
Tahoe.
The issue is that we should not be setting up titlebar accessory views
when there is no titlebar. This was triggering an AppKit assertion.
To further simplify things, I always use the basic window styling if
window decorations are off, too.
It's here, the long-foretold and long-procrastinated renderer rework!
Hopefully this makes it easier to adapt and modify the renderer in the
future and ensures feature parity between Metal and OpenGL. Despite
having been a lot of work to write initially, with the abstraction layer
in place I feel like working on the renderer will be a much more
pleasant experience going forward.
## Key points
- CPU-side renderer logic is now mostly unified via a generic
`Renderer`.
- A graphics API abstraction layer over OpenGL and Metal has been
introduced.
- Minimum OpenGL version bumped to `4.3`, so can no longer be run on
macOS; I used the nix VM stuff for my testing during development. (Edit
by @mitchellh: Note for readers that Ghostty still works on macOS, but
the OpenGL backend doesn't, only the Metal one)
- The OpenGL backend now supports linear blending! Woohoo! The default
`alpha-blending` has been updated to `linear-corrected` since it's
essentially a strict improvement over `native`. The default on macOS is
still `native` though to match other mac apps in appearance, since macOS
users are more sensitive to text appearance.
- Custom shaders can now be hot reloaded.
- The background color is once again drawn by us, so custom shaders can
interact with it properly. In general, custom shaders should be a little
more robust.
## The abstraction layer
The general hierarchy of the abstraction layer is as such:
```
[ GraphicsAPI ] - Responsible for configuring the runtime surface
| | and providing render `Target`s that draw to it,
| | as well as `Frame`s and `Pipeline`s.
| V
| [ Target ] - Represents an abstract target for rendering, which
| could be a surface directly but is also used as an
| abstraction for off-screen frame buffers.
V
[ Frame ] - Represents the context for drawing a given frame,
| provides `RenderPass`es for issuing draw commands
| to, and reports the frame health when complete.
V
[ RenderPass ] - Represents a render pass in a frame, consisting of
: one or more `Step`s applied to the same target(s),
[ Step ] - - - - each describing the input buffers and textures and
: the vertex/fragment functions and geometry to use.
:_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _/
v
[ Pipeline ] - Describes a vertex and fragment function to be used
for a `Step`; the `GraphicsAPI` is responsible for
these and they should be constructed and cached
ahead of time.
[ Buffer ] - An abstraction over a GPU buffer.
[ Texture ] - An abstraction over a GPU texture.
```
More specific documentation can be found on the relevant structures.
## Miscellany
Renderers (which effectively just means the generic renderer) are now
expected to only touch GPU resources in `init`, certain lifecycle
functions such as the `displayRealized`/`displayUnrealized` callbacks
from GTK-- and `drawFrame`; and are also expected to be thread-safe.
This allows the renderer thread to build the CPU-side buffers
(`updateFrame`) even if we can only *draw* from the app thread.
Because of this change, we can draw synchronously from the main thread
on macOS when necessary to always have a frame of the correct size
during a resize animation. This was necessary to allow the background to
be drawn by our GPU code (instead of setting a background color on the
layer) while still avoiding holes during resize.
The OpenGL backend now theoretically has access to multi-buffering, but
it's disabled (by setting the buffer count to 1) because it
synchronously waits for frames to complete anyway which means that the
extra buffers were just a waste of memory.
## Validation
To validate that there are no significant or obvious problems, I
exercised both backends with a variety of configurations, and visually
inspected the results. Everything looks to be in order.
The images are available in a gist here:
https://gist.github.com/qwerasd205/c1bd3e4c694d888e41612e53c0560179
## Memory
Here's a comparison of memory usage for ReleaseFast builds on macOS,
between `main` and this branch.
Memory figures given are values from Activity Monitor measuring windows
of the same size, with two tabs with 3 splits each.
||Before|After|
|-:|-|-|
|**Memory**|247.9 MB|224.2 MB|
|**Real Memory**|174.4 MB|172.5 MB|
Happily, the rework has slightly *reduced* the memory footprint- likely
due to removing the overhead of `CAMetalLayer`. (The footprint could be
reduced much further if we got rid of multi-buffering and satisfied
ourselves with blocking for each frame, but that's a discussion for
another day.)
If someone could do a similar comparison for Linux, that'd be much
appreciated!
## Notes / future work
- There are a couple structures that *can* be unified using the
abstraction layer, but I haven't gotten around to unifying yet.
Specifically, in `renderer/(opengl|metal)/`, there's `cell.zig` and
`image.zig`, both of which are substantially identical between the two
backends. `shaders.zig` may also be a candidate for unification, but
that might be *overly* DRY.
- ~~I did not double-check the documentation for config options, which
may mention whether certain options can be hot-reloaded; if it does then
that will need to be updated.~~ Fixed: be5908f
- The `fragCoord` for custom shaders originates at the top left for
Metal, but *bottom* left for OpenGL; fixing this will be a bit annoying,
since the screen texture is likewise vertically flipped between the two.
Some shaders rely on the fragcoord for things like falling particles, so
this does need to be fixed.
- `Target` should be improved to support multiple types of targets right
now it only represents a framebuffer or iosurface, but it should also be
able to represent a texture; right now a kind of messy tagged union is
used so that steps can accept both.
- Custom shader cursor uniforms (#6912) and terminal background images
(#4226, #5233) should be much more straightforward to implement on top
of this rework, and I plan to make follow-up PRs for them once this is
merged.
- I *do* want to do a rework of the pipelines themselves, since the way
we're rendering stuff is a bit messy currently, but this is already a
huge enough PR as it is- so for now the renderer still uses the same
rendering passes that Metal did before.
- We should probably add a system requirements section to the README
where we can note the minimum required OpenGL version of `4.3`, any even
slightly modern Linux system will support this, but it would be good to
document it somewhere user-facing anyway.
# TODO BEFORE MERGE
- [x] Have multiple people test this on both macOS and linux.
- [ ] ~~Have someone with a better dev setup on linux check for memory
leaks and other problems.~~ (Skipped, will merge and let tip users
figure this out, someone should *specifically* look for memory leaks
before the next versioned release though.)
- [x] Address any code review feedback.
This updates the Ghostty icon to be compatible with macOS Tahoe
(supports glass effects, light/dark, tinting, etc.). This icon is made
in the new Apple Icon Composer as the source format, and all other
formats are exported from it.
This commit also updates the icon for non-Apple platforms because the
icon is fundamentally the same and I don't see any reason to maintain
multiple icons of fundamentally the same design and style.
This commit also includes updates to the macOS app so that the About
Window and so on will use the new icon.
This commit is very large, representing about a month of work with many
interdependent changes that don't separate cleanly in to atomic commits.
The main change here is unifying the renderer logic to a single generic
renderer, implemented on top of an abstraction layer over OpenGL/Metal.
I'll write a more complete summary of the changes in the description of
the PR.
This fixes an issue where pressing the red close button in a window or
the "x" button on a tab couldn't differentiate and would always close
the tab or close the window (depending on tab counts).
It seems like in both cases, AppKit triggers the `windowShouldClose`
delegate method on the controller, but for the close window case it
triggers this on ALL the windows in the group, not just the one that was
clicked.
I implemented a kind of silly coordinator that debounces
`windowShouldClose` calls over 100ms and uses that to differentiate
between the two cases.

Resolves#7591
This moves our CI to build macOS on Sequoia (macOS 15) with Xcode 26,
including the new macOS 26 beta SDK.
Importantly, this will make our builds on macOS 26 use the new styling.
I've added a new job that ensures we can continue to build with Xcode 16 and
the macOS 15 SDK, as well, although I think that might come to an end
when we switch over to an IconComposer-based icon. I'll verify then. For
now, we continue to support both.
I've also removed our `hasLiquidGlass` check, since this will now always
be true for macOS 26 builds.
This integrates with macOS accessibility APIs to expose Ghostty terminal
structure and content.
This is a very, very bare implementation and the terminal contents
currently reported are the _full screen and scrollback_ which is way too
much for realistic human accessibility use. The target use case for this
PR is to enable automated tooling (namely, AI screen readers). However,
this is all groundwork we'll need to iterate and improve the
accessibility work anyways.
To make this work, I also replatformed some of our hacky C APIs onto a
more robust `ghostty_surface_read_text` API that can now read arbitrary
ranges of the screen into C strings for consumers to use. This will be
useful in more places going forward (hint hint).
## Before
Accessibility tooling can't read anything, Ghostty has no attributes, no
contents, just shows up as a square.
## After
A lot of metadata, including the screen contents as text.
Also, split hierarchies are navigable:

This fixes a regression from our Tahoe window styling changes on
earlier, stable versions of macOS. We need to set
"titlebarAppearsTransparent" to true in order to hide the bottom
border.
This is recommended for macOS Tahoe and all standard menu items now have
associated images. This makes our app look more polished and native for
macOS Tahoe.
On earlier versions of macOS (macOS 15 and earlier), we _do not_ set the
menu item image. Cocoa has supported menu item images for a long time
but it isn't idiomatic to show them in earlier versions, so we only do
this for later macOS versions.
For icon choice, I tried to copy other native macOS apps as much as
possible, mostly from Xcode. It looks like a lot of apps aren't updated
yet. I'm absolutely open to suggestions for better icons but I think
these are a good starting point.
One menu change is I moved "reset font size" above "increase font size"
which better matches other apps (e.g. Terminal.app).

Windows with `macos-titlebar-style = hidden` create new windows when the
new tab binding is pressed. This behavior has existed for a long time.
However, these windows did not cascade, meaning they'd appear overlapped
directly on top of the previous window, which is kind of nasty.
This commit changes it so that new windows created via new tab from a
hidden titlebar window will cascade.
Fixes#7546
SwiftUI uses type and structure to identify views, which can lead
to issues with tree like structures where the shape and type is the same
but the content changes. This was causing #7546.
To fix this, we need to add explicit identity to the split tree view
so that SwiftUI can differentiate when it needs to redraw the view.
We don't want to blindly add Hashable to SplitTree because we don't want
to take into account all the fields. Instead, we add an explicit
"structural identity" to the SplitTreeView that can be used by SwiftUI.
When closing a window that contains multiple tabs, the undo operation
now properly restores all tabs as a single tabbed window rather than
just restoring the active tab.
The implementation:
- Collects undo states from all windows in the tab group before closing
- Sorts them by their original tab index to preserve order
- Clears tab group references to avoid referencing garbage collected objects
- Restores all windows and re-adds them as tabs to the first window
- Tracks and restores which tab was focused (or focuses the last tab if none were)
AI prompts that generated this commit are below.
Each separate prompt is separated by a blank line, so this session was
made up with many prompts in a back-and-forth conversation.

I should note at this point that the feature already worked, but the
code quality and organization wasn't up to my standards. If someone
using AI were just trying to make something work, they might be done at
this point.
I do think this is the biggest gap I worry about with AI-assisted
development: bridging between the "it works" stage at a junior quality
and the "it works and is maintainable" stage at a senior quality. I
suspect this will be a balance of LLMs getting better but also senior
code reviewers remaining highly involved in the process.

It wrote me a part of the commit message you're reading now, but I

This fixes a regression from the new split work last week, but it was
also probably an issue before that in a slightly different way.
With the new split work, the quick terminal was becoming unusable when
the final surface explicitly `exit`-ed, because AppKit/SwiftUI would
resize the window to a very small size and you couldn't see the new
terminal on the next toggle.
Prior to this, I think the quick terminal would've reverted to its
original size but I'm not sure (even if the user resized it manually).
This commit saves the size of the quick terminal at the point all
surfaces are exited and restores it when the quick terminal is shown the
next time with a new initial surface.
I've only recently been using programs that use user notifications heavily
and this commit addresses a number of annoyances I've encountered.
1. Notifications dispatched while the source terminal surface is
focused are now only shown for a short time (3 seconds hardcoded)
and then automatically dismiss.
2. Notifications are dismissed when the target surface becomes focused
from an unfocused state. This dismissal happens immediately (no
delay).
3. Notifications are dismissed when the application exits.
4. This fixes a bug where notification callbacks were modifying view
state, but the notification center doesn't guarantee that the
callback is called on the main thread. We now ensure that
the callback is always called on the main thread.
Took another look through #7504 after the merge and realized that the
logic behind the `hasWindowButtons` property wasn't quite sound. It
would return `false` if either _at least one_ button were missing in the
`standardWindowButton(.theButton) == nil` sense, or if _all_ buttons
were hidden in the `isHidden` sense.
With this PR, the logic is rectified: `false` if _all_ buttons are
missing or hidden in any sense, otherwise `true`.
In practice, I suppose Ghostty won't ever instantiate a `TerminalWindow`
where `standardWindowButton(.theButton) == nil`, but might as well get
it right and sleep better at night.
Fixes regression from #7523
I messed two things up around spatial navigation in the split tree
that this commit fixes:
1. The distance in the spatial tree only used a single dimension
that we were navigating. This commit now uses 2D euclidean
distance from the top-left corners of nodes. This handles the case
where the nodes are directly above or below each other better.
2. The spatial slots include split containers because they are layout
elements. But we should only navigate to leaf nodes. This was
causing the wrong navigatin to happen in some scenarios.
This is a major rework of how we represent, handle, and render splits in
the macOS app.
This new PR moves the split structure into a dedicated, generic
(non-Ghostty-specific) value-type called `SplitTree<V>`. All logic
associated with splits (new split, close split, move split, etc.) is now
handled by notifications on `BaseTerminalController`. The view hierarchy
is still SwiftUI but it has no logic associated with it anymore and
purely renders a static tree of splits.
Previously, the split hierarchy was owned by AppKit in a type called
`SplitNode` (a recursive class that contained the tree structure). All
logic around creating, zooming, etc. splits was handled by notification
listeners directly within the SwiftUI hierarchy. SwiftUI managed a
significant amount of state and we heavily used bindings, publishers,
and more. The reasoning for this is mostly historical: splits date back
to when Ghostty tried to go all-in on SwiftUI. Since then, we've taken a
more balanced approach of SwiftUI for views and AppKit for data and
business logic, and this has proven a lot more maintainable.
## Spatial Navigation
Previously, focus moving was handled by traversing the tree structure.
This led to some awkward behaviors. See:
https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/issues/524#issuecomment-2668396095
In this PR, we now handle focus moving spatially. This means that move
"left" means moving to the visually left split (from the top-left
corner, a future improvement would be to do it from the cursor
position).
Concretely, given the following split structure:
```
+----------+-----+
| | b |
| | |
| a +-----+
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
|----------| d |
| c | |
| | |
+----------+-----+
```
Moving "right" from `c` now moves to `d`. Previously, it would go to
`b`. On Linux, it still goes to `b`.
## Value Types
One of the major architectural shifts is moving **purely to immutable
value types.** Whenever a split property changes such as a new split,
the ratio between splits, zoomed state, etc. we _create an entirely new
`SplitTree` value_ and replace it along the entire view hierarchy. This
is in some ways wasteful, but split hierarchies are relatively small
(even the largest I've seen in practical use are dozens of splits, which
is small for a computer). And using value types lets us get rid of a ton
of change notification soup around the SwiftUI hierarchy. We can rely on
reference counting to properly clean up our closed views.
> [!NOTE]
>
> As an aside, I think value types are going to make it a lot easier in
the future to implement features like "undo close." We can just keep a
trailing list of surface tree states and just restore them. This PR
doesn't do anything like that, but it's now possible.
## SwiftUI Simplicity
Our SwiftUI view hierarchy is dramatically simplified. See the
difference in `TerminalSplitTreeView` (new) vs `TerminalSplit` (old).
There's so much less logic in our new views (almost none!). All of it is
in the AppKit layer which is just way nicer.
## AI Notes
This PR was heavily written by AI. I reviewed every line of code that
was rewritten, and I did manually rewrite at every step of the way in
minor ways. But it was very much written in concert. Each commit usually
started as an AI agent writing the whole commit, then nudging to get
cleaned up in the right way.
One thing I found in this task was that until the last commit, I kept
the entire previous implementation around and compiling. The agent
having access to a previous working version of code during a refactor
made the code it produced as follow up in the new architecture
significantly better, despite the new architecture having major
fundamental differences in how it works!
Conversion of #7497 to a PR. This implements a feature requested in
#7331: an option to hide the default window buttons on macOS for a
cleaner aesthetic.
~~Builds on #7502 as it requires the same change to avoid the main
toolbar title showing on top of the tab bar.~~ EDIT: rebased on main now
that #7502 was merged.
I aligned the scope of the new option with `macos-titlebar-style`, since
they both customize titlebar elements. This means it has the same edge
case quirks: For example, if you change the setting, reload the config,
and then open a new tab, the appearance of the current window will
depend on which tab is in the foreground. I did it this way because
`macos-titlebar-style` provided an easy template for which derived
configs and functions to modify. Let me know if you want me to try
adjusting this so that a change in the setting also takes effect for
current windows/tabs, which I _think_ should be possible.
Screenshots:
* `macos-titlebar-style = transparent` (default)
* `macos-titlebar-style = tabs`
First, remove the always-inlined openTerminalFromPasteboard code and
combine it with openTerminal. Now that we're doing a bit of work inside
openTerminal, there's little better to having an intermediate, inlined
function.
Second, combine some type-casting operations (saving a .map() call).
Lastly, adjust some variable names because a generic `objs` or `urls`
was a little ambiguous now that we're all in one function scope.

This fixes a small memory leak I found where the `SplitNode.Leaf` was
not being deinitialized properly when closing a split. It would get
deinitialized the next time a split was made or the window was closed,
so the leak wasn't big. The surface view underneath the split was also
properly deinitialized because we forced it, so again, the leak was
quite small.
But conceptually this is a big problem, because when we change the
surface tree we expect the deinit chain to propagate properly through
the whole thing, _including_ to the SurfaceView.
This fixes that by removing the `id(node)` call. I don't find this to be
necessary anymore. I don't know when that happened but we've changed
quite a lot in our split system since it was introduced. I'm also not
100% sure why the `id(node)` was causing a strong reference to begin
with... which bothers me a bit.
AI note: While I manually hunted this down, I started up Claude Code and
Codex in separate tabs to also hunt for the memory leak. They both
failed to find it and offered solutions that didn't work.
The default keybinds for showing the GTK inspector (`ctrl+shift+i` and
`ctrl+shift+d`) don't work reliably in Ghostty due to the way Ghostty
handles input. You can show the GTK inspector by setting the environment
variable `GTK_DEBUG` to `interactive` before starting Ghostty but that's
not always convenient.
This adds a keybind action that will show the GTK inspector. Due to
API limitations toggling the GTK inspector using the keybind action is
impractical because GTK does not provide a convenient API to determine
if the GTK inspector is already showing. Thus we limit ourselves to
strictly showing the GTK inspector. To close the GTK inspector the user
must click the close button on the GTK inspector window. If the GTK
inspector window is already visible but is hidden, calling the keybind
action will not bring the GTK inspector window to the front.
Fixes#7286
Previously, when using the "New Ghostty Window/Tab Here" macOS service
on a file, the new terminal window/tab would incorrectly open in the
user's home directory. This was because the service handler only
expected directory paths.
This commit updates the service handler to check if the provided path is
a file. If it is, the handler now uses the file's parent
directory as the working directory for the new Ghostty window or tab,
aligning with user expectations. If the path is a directory, it's used
directly as before.
Fixes#7337
AppKit encodes functional keys as PUA codepoints. We don't want to send
that down as valid text encoding for a key event because KKP uses that
in particular to change the encoding with associated text.
I think there may be a more specific solution to this by only doing this
within the KKP encoding part of KeyEncoder but that was filled with edge
cases and I didn't want to risk breaking anything else.
Fixes#7236
Supersedes #7249
This removes all of our `focusedValue`-based tracking of the surface
title and moves it completely to the window controller. The window
controller now sets up event listeners (via Combine) when the focused
surface changes and updates the window title accordingly.
There is some complicated logic here to handle when we lose focus to
something other than a surface. In this case, we want our title to be
the last focused surface so long as it exists.
Fixes#6999
It appears that at some point one of the operations causes focus to move
away for non-native fullscreen. We previously relied on the delegate
method to restore this but a better approach appears to handle this
directly in the fullscreen implementations. This fixes the linked issue.
I still think long term all the `Ghostty.moveFocus` stuff is a code
smell and we should be auditing all that code to see if we can
eliminate it. But this is a step in the right direction, and removes one
of those uses.
Fixes#7114
Supercedes #7271
This fixes a crash that could occur with non-native fullscreen and
`fullscreen = true` set at once.
The "windowNumber" can be `<= 0` if the window "doesn't have a
window device." I don't fully know all the scenarios this is true but it
is true when the window is not visible, at least.
#7173
(1) The command palette no longer has any selection by default.
If and when we introduce most recently used commands, defaulting to that
would make sense. A selection only appears when the arrow keys are used
or the user starts typing.
(2) The selection with arrow keys now wraps, so if you press "down" on
the last option, it will wrap to the first option, and if you press "up"
on the first option, it will wrap to the last option. This matches both
VSCode and Zed.
Removes the withAnimation closure which caused flashing when scrolling
up or down with arrow keys. Also removes the center anchor to behave
more like other command palletes (e.g., Zed, Raycast).
This introduces a command palette (inspired by @pluiedev's work in
#5681, but not using it as a base) for macOS.
The command palette is available in the `View` menu and also bindable
via `toggle_command_palette`, default binding is `cmd+shift+p` to match
VSCode.
The commands in the command palette must map to a _bindable_ action,
though they may not have an associated keybinding. This means that any
new binding actions we add in the future can be represented here and
also makes it easy in the future to add configuration to add new custom
entries to the command palette. For this initial PR, the available
commands are hardcoded (`src/input/commands.zig`).
I've noticed in other programs (VSCode, Zed), the command palette
contains pretty much _all available actions_ even if they're basically
useless in the context of a command palette. For example, Zed has the
"toggle command palette" action in the command palette and it... does
nothing (it probably should hide the palette). I followed @pluiedev's
lead and made this subjective in this PR but I wonder if we should
actually force all binding actions to be available.
There are various other improvements I'd like to make but omitted from
this PR for the sake of limiting scope:
* Instead of an entry with no matches doing nothing, we can allow users
to manually input _any_ configurable binding.
* Localization, since macOS doesn't have any yet. But for Linux when we
port this we probably have to change our strings extraction.

and not the key itself so it probably worked fine in most programs).
The issue is that `charactersIgnoringModifiers` changes behavior if
`control` is pressed, so it doesn't really ignore all modifiers. We have
to use `characters(byApplyingModifiers:)` to get the proper unshifted
codepoint when `control` is pressed.
This replaces the use of our custom `Ghostty.KeyEquivalent` with the
SwiftUI `KeyboardShortcut` type. This is a more standard way to
represent keyboard shortcuts and lets us more tightly integrate with
SwiftUI/AppKit when necessary over our custom type.
This PR should have no user impact. This is just some cleanup for future
work.
Note that not all Ghostty triggers can be represented as
KeyboardShortcut values because macOS itself does not support binding
keys such as function keys (e.g. F1-F12) to KeyboardShortcuts.
This isn't an issue since all input also passes through a lower level
libghostty API which can handle all key events, we just can't show these
keyboard shortcuts on things like the menu bar. This was already true
before this commit.
