Skipping the draft-following scan whenever ANY pane happened to list the
directory was the cheaper rule and the wrong one: erasing a segment left the
level being typed on the LEFT, with its own child pane still standing to its
right, so the two panes stopped reading as "where I am, and where I came
from".
The pane arity is now the invariant the editor maintains — the last pane lists
the level the path names, its parent sits beside it, and only a display root
lists alone. Only that last pane's own tail costs no scan; every other
directory part re-lands.
The draft-following scan replaced the panes with one wide level, so typing a
path collapsed the dialog's Miller view — the thing the dialog is. It now
lands through the same selection-anchored landing every navigation uses:
target and parent legs as one frame, the target re-selected in its parent
level, its children on the right. Typing a path moves the Miller view exactly
as a crumb jump does.
One landing shape, two callers: `land(path, {closeEditor, announce})` is what
`navigate` and the draft-following scan share. A submitted path closes the
editor and announces failures; the speculative scan keeps both to itself and
re-parks the focus its swap dropped.
A level a pane already lists still needs no scan at all — the filter alone
answers the draft — so erasing back into the parent's own path keeps both
panes and only moves the filter.
ds-review-bot round one. Keying the debounce on the directory part the draft
named left two states with no recovery until the operator crossed a separator:
a keystroke that superseded an in-flight scan never re-armed one, and an edit
after a rejected submission released the hold with no timer left to release.
The wait is now keyed on the draft itself and decides its target when it
fires, reading the panes through a ref so a landing cannot re-arm it (a host
answering with a differently spelled path would otherwise scan forever).
A landed scan that unmounts the row a keyboard operator Tabbed onto re-parks
focus on the still-open editor; the Modal has no focus trap. That a walked-to
level survives closing the editor is now stated in the README, the Agent Note,
and the module contract. The new e2e stages its own beta directory so running
it alone sees the tree its assertions describe.
The Select Workspace Directory dialog hid its one route into typing a path
behind an invisible click target, and once the editor opened the panes stayed
on whatever level was listed when it opened — so the typed text and the list
under it disagreed for the whole edit.
The edit zone now carries a pencil glyph at the bar's right edge and lights in
the editor's own footprint on hover/focus (the bar keeps one height across the
swap). While editing, the panes follow the draft: a directory part no pane
lists is scanned after a 250ms rest and lands in place, so typing deeper
descends and erasing segments steps back up without leaving the editor, and a
final segment nobody matches releases the prefix filter instead of emptying
the pane it is being spelled into. The draft-following scan is speculative and
silent on failure; Enter still owns the view from submission until landing and
remains the only path that surfaces an error.
