Adds up to four editor groups in one workspace, with Split Right / Split Down, resizable dividers, independent tabs and views, drag/move between groups, and directional focus. Closes #706. Refs #75 and #1613.

Each new split starts with an independent numbered untitled document. Opening a file replaces an untouched placeholder; editing preserves that document, including after undo or save. Open to the Side explicitly creates another view sharing the document and undo history.

The group menu keeps Split Right, Split Down, and Close Split. Other commands are available under Split: in the command palette. F6 and Shift+F6 cycle through groups and panels; Ctrl+K plus an arrow focuses an adjacent group.

Close Split merges remaining tabs into a neighbor and coalesces duplicate views. Closing the last tab removes its group. Shared documents remain consistent across save, Save As, reload, undo, and live settings.

Extended keeps the existing three-row tab design by default. Hidden shows a one-row divider; Auto-hide reveals Extended after 50 ms at the group's top edge and hides after 100 ms outside a one-cell grace area. Tab bar style applies live from Appearance settings or Options > Appearance. Vertical dividers skip shared tab strips and continue alongside neighboring editors with themed joints. Stacked groups use the middle separator row for editor content. Highlight active split is enabled by default under Appearance; tab-name backgrounds are unchanged.

The opt-in session feature from #1488 is already on main. This PR extends it to restore split arrangements, divider proportions, the focused group, and each group's file tabs, pins, cursors, and scrolling. Shared documents reopen as independent views of one buffer. Empty groups reopen with fresh untitled buffers; unsaved text, terminal sessions, plugin tabs, and undo history are not persisted. Existing flat session files remain readable, and existing cleanup limits still apply.

Validation:

  • make test
  • make lint (0 issues)
  • make build
  • Unit/E2E coverage for independent untitled groups, replacement after opening files, preservation after edit/undo/save, explicit shared views, tab movement, close/merge, themed joins, resizing, focus, and settings.
  • Real binary --exec checks for independent editing and splitting from an editor terminal.
  • Rebased onto main at bdd73ae, preserving the current upstream behavior and the PR's async diff ownership fix.
  • Fake-clock tests cover auto-hide delays, cancellation, menus, dragging, and the grace area.
  • Restart tests cover grouped tabs, shared buffers, focus, pins, independent view positions, divider ratios, empty groups, missing files, legacy sessions, and storage bounds. A real-binary quit/relaunch check restores three groups.

Walkthrough

The editor now supports up to four groups with split controls, directional focus, tab movement, and shared document buffers with independent views. Application file, diagnostic, settings, and quit handling covers all groups. Session restoration, tab-bar styles, configuration, documentation, and tests cover these changes.

Changes: Split editor groups

Layer / File(s) Summary
Split layout and divider rendering
internal/ui/editor_layout.go, internal/ui/content_split.go, internal/ui/split_panel.go, internal/ui/widget.go, internal/term/border.go, internal/config/theme.go, internal/app/theme.go, internal/ui/editor_layout_test.go, internal/ui/content_split_resize_test.go
The editor layout supports split trees with up to four groups, directional neighbors, equalization, divider rendering, and border junctions. Content-split options adjust panel geometry and divider hit testing.
Shared documents and tab lifecycle
internal/ui/editor_group.go, internal/ui/editor_group_shared.go, internal/ui/editor_group_split.go, internal/ui/editor_group_shared_test.go, internal/ui/editor_group_split_test.go
Groups can display shared buffers with separate view positions. Changes synchronize document metadata and views. Tabs can move or merge between groups, and untitled names are coordinated across related groups.
Group commands and application wiring
internal/app/editor_split.go, internal/app/editor_group_actions.go, internal/app/callbacks.go, internal/app/commands.go, internal/app/commands_view.go, internal/app/widgets.go, internal/app/app.go, internal/ui/tabbar_widget.go, internal/widgets/tab_drag.go, tests/e2e/editor_split_test.go, internal/app/editor_split_lifecycle_test.go
The application wires split creation, closing, focus, open-to-side, tab dragging, and group menus. End-to-end and lifecycle tests cover group navigation, resizing, tab operations, and cleanup.
Tab-bar styles and group presentation
internal/ui/tabbar_style.go, internal/ui/tabbar_widget.go, internal/ui/pointer_shape.go, internal/ui/root.go, internal/config/settings.go, internal/app/commands_options.go, internal/app/settings_view.go, internal/app/commands_settings.go, tests/e2e/editor_tab_autohide_test.go, internal/app/editor_tab_autohide_test.go, internal/ui/tabbar_style_test.go
Tab bars support extended, hidden, and auto-hide styles. Auto-hide uses delayed pointer transitions, and the active group can receive border highlighting.
Workspace session layout persistence
internal/config/editor_session.go, internal/config/editor_session_layout.go, internal/app/editor_session.go, internal/app/editor_session_layout.go, internal/config/editor_session_layout_test.go, internal/app/editor_session_layout_test.go
Workspace sessions save and restore split layout, divider ratios, focused group, tab state, and independent view positions. The loader accepts legacy tab-only sessions and bounds stored layouts and tabs.
Cross-group state and supporting updates
internal/app/commands_editor.go, internal/app/commands_settings.go, internal/app/eventloop.go, internal/app/fileops.go, internal/app/gitgutter.go, internal/app/grammars.go, internal/app/lsp_*.go, internal/app/watch.go, internal/app/debug_dump.go, internal/app/changes_async.go, internal/app/commit_detail_context.go, internal/app/pr.go, internal/config/keybindings.go, internal/config/theme.go, internal/i18n/en.json, README.md, docs-web/src/content/docs/guides/editor.md, docs-web/src/content/docs/reference/*, tests/e2e/*, internal/app/*_test.go
File and async-result handling, diagnostics, Git data, grammars, watches, settings, and quit behavior now account for editor groups. Configuration, translations, documentation, and tests describe or validate these updates.

Merge Risk: Low · previous review 040d3

Split editor groups work as described, but a few minor edge cases remain. Very small or very large divider sizes come back as a 50/50 split after restart. Save As over a file open in another group may send an extra close event or leave a language server with stale content. Dropping a tab after the last tab in another group may place it one slot early. These are low-impact and can be fixed in follow-ups.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title "feat(editor): add split editor groups" matches the main change. The changeset adds an EditorLayoutWidget, split and close commands, directional focus, moving tabs between groups, and per-group settings, and the PR objectives describe the same feature. The title is short, specific, and in the conventional commit format.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

The only linked issue is #706. It is closed and completed, and the linked-issue block marks it as historical context only. No active directly linked targets remain, so no linked-issue coding requirements apply. #1488 is named only as separate session work that this PR extends. It does not add requirements to this PR. The #706 nice-to-haves (mouse divider resize, drag-to-split, layout memory in session state) are not required, and the PR implements them anyway.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The previous FAIL cited the tabBarStyle feature (hidden and auto-hide modes, settings, picker, auto-hide timers, Root.OnMouseMove hook, tests, docs) as absent from the PR description. The current PR description now states this feature under the split-editor work. It describes Extended, Hidden, and Auto-hide modes, live application from Appearance settings, and how vertical dividers and stacked groups handle shared tab strips. The feature changes the per-group tab strip that split groups use, so it is connected to the split-editor layout. The remaining changes (EditorLayoutWidget, split and close commands, directional focus, shared-document views, tab movement, Open to the Side, Highlight active split, session layout persistence, and their tests and docs) map to the PR description and to #706. The previous FAIL condition is satisfied by the description update. No unrelated change was demonstrated.

Editor, diff, and log benchmarks

Comparing bdd73ae9dd84 with 556725032c4f on the same runner: fastest of 3 alternating passes at 5x each, -short (2,000-line large file).

Allocated bytes measure total allocation per operation, not peak or retained RAM.

Logs are opened by each side's built ttt binary, 1x per pass, timed from launch until the first frame shows the log; _wrap rows start with word wrap on, and _edit opens a log committed to git, types a character, and moves down 20 lines. Time includes process startup, so the 1 MiB case is mostly startup; peak RSS is the process's maximum resident memory. The 1, 128, and 256 MiB fixtures are generated once outside timing and shared across both checkouts, so reads may use the OS file cache.

Code files open a 64 MiB Go file, this repository's sources repeated, with LSP and the git gutter off; _type also types 20 characters and _enter presses Enter 10 times before quitting.

@coderabbitai review

Please review the latest head. Both PRs now target main because the repository only runs CI for that base. Tab persistence is isolated in #1488 and excluded from this PR. Latest fixes preserve tab reordering at the strip edge and edited documents behind an untouched placeholder when merging groups. Tests and lint pass locally.

@coderabbitai The out-of-scope pre-merge warning does not match the current base diff. git diff 082cac86...b080a53f -- internal/i18n/en.json adds exactly 18 keys: split commands/menu labels, the active-split setting, and the two Save As messages requested in this review. It adds no app-management, argument, or side-padding messages; those already exist on main. The warning itself says repository diff inspection was unavailable and relied on the supplied summary. Please assess scope against this current base diff. No unrelated localization additions need removal.

@eugenioenko You are correct. I checked the current PR base and head, which match 082cac86 and b080a53f.

The diff for internal/i18n/en.json adds 18 keys: 15 split command and menu labels, one active-split setting, and two Save As messages. It changes or removes no existing keys. The app-management, argument, and side-padding keys already exist on the base.

The out-of-scope warning is not supported by this diff. No unrelated localization additions need removal. This reply does not rerun or update the saved pre-merge check.

# AGENTS.md

## Architecture

### Key Design Constraints

- **User-facing copy belongs in `internal/i18n/en.json`.** Use flat `area.name` keys with one dot and `general.` for labels shared with the same meaning. Read copy through `i18n.Text`, or `i18n.Format` with named placeholders (`{filename}`, `{count}`) and `i18n.Args`. Keep complete messages together so translators can reorder them; do not concatenate translated sentence fragments or use positional printf placeholders in the catalog. Preserve existing keys when changing wording. Keep icons and decorative glyphs in `internal/icons` and compose them with translated text in UI code; use named placeholders when a glyph appears inside a translated hint. Native language names, command IDs, config keys, protocol values, key notation, logs, and external error text are not translation keys. Run `go test ./internal/i18n` to validate catalog keys, references, and placeholders when changing copy.

Major · Stability & Availability · Heavy lift

Route asynchronous diff results to the owning editor group.

If a PR content request starts in one group and the user activates another group before completion, this lookup searches only the newly active group. When that group has no matching tab, the handler consumes the result without completing the original visible diff.

The same failure affects commit details: internal/app/changes_async.go, Lines 641-655, and internal/app/commit_detail_context.go, Lines 113-125, resolve results only through a.EditorGroup.

Resolve each result against its owning tab across editor groups. Preserve the existing incarnation checks. Group activation must not discard a result for a tab that remains open.

Minor · Compute inline-diff status across all groups before refreshing git baselines. · gitgutter.go:150

internal/app/gitgutter.go:150
Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Compute inline-diff status across all groups before refreshing git baselines.

RequestGitGutter and ScheduleGitGutter derive diffOn from the active group only. While another group is active, a refresh for a path that has an inline diff in a non-active group gets diffOn == false. The worker then skips the base and diff reads, and applyGitGutterResult skips SetInlineDiff for that group. The inline diff keeps its old baseline until a later refresh runs while its group is active. Edits in the shared buffer still reach the diff through its live buffer, so this affects the baseline only.

Compute diffOn from every group that displays the path:

Suggested fix

+// inlineDiffOnPath reports whether any editor group shows an inline diff for path.
+func (a *App) inlineDiffOnPath(path string) bool {
+	for _, group := range a.editorGroups() {

internal/ui/tabbar_widget.go:809
Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Cross-group drops after the last tab insert before it.

DropIndexAt returns the tab index from dropTargetAt. A same-group move uses that index as a final index. A cross-group drop uses the same index as an insertion slot after the moved tab is appended. For a drop in the right half of the last tab, the returned index is the last tab's index. With destination tabs A, B, C, a drop after C returns 2. The moved tab X is appended at index 3, and MoveTab(3, 2) then produces A, B, X, C instead of A, B, C, X.

Return an insertion slot from the cross-group path instead. The end-of-strip slot must equal the destination's tab count. Keep the same-group path on dropTargetAt, and confirm the placeholder and pinned cases before changing the shared helper.

Update DropIndexAt’s cross-group drop path to return an insertion slot, using the destination tab count for a drop after the last tab; preserve dropTargetAt’s existing final-index behavior for same-group moves.

Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

Do not retarget a pending diff when the active group changes.

If groups A and B show the same file, start a diff read in A and focus B before it completes. startDiffOpen captures only the active path. applyDiffOpen accepts B because its path matches, then opens the result in B. Cancel the pending diff before this assignment, or retain and validate the originating group in the request. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

- Around line 1162-1163: Separate resource cleanup from the OnFileClose
notification in the tab-replacement path used by SaveAs. When an untitled
document replaces a clean local tab, preserve cleanup but do not emit a
document-close event for the replaced tab, since the replacement remains open;
keep normal close notifications for actual document closures.
- Around line 1906-1907: Update saveFileAs so saving over a clean file also
sends the saved buffer as didChange to every peer view of that path whose
document is open in the language server, before afterFileSave sends didSave. Use
the next document version and preserve the existing dirty-destination behavior.

Outside diff comments:
Review comments at @internal/app/gitgutter.go:
- Line 150: Update RequestGitGutter and ScheduleGitGutter to determine
inline-diff status across every editor group displaying the path, rather than
only the active EditorGroup. Reuse a shared helper for this check so refreshes
still read and apply the diff baseline when a non-active group shows the path.

Review comments at @internal/ui/tabbar_widget.go:
- Line 809: Update DropIndexAt’s cross-group drop path to return an insertion
slot, using the destination tab count for a drop after the last tab; preserve
dropTargetAt’s existing final-index behavior for same-group moves. Check
placeholder and pinned-tab handling so the adjustment does not change their
existing behavior.

Failed pre-merge checks:
- Out of Scope Changes check:
Either remove the tabBarStyle hidden and auto-hide feature from this PR,
including its settings, picker, auto-hide timing and mouse-move hook, en.json
keys, docs, and tests, and move it to a separate PR. Or update the PR
description to state the feature and explain how it supports split editor
groups. Then reassess the changes against that description.

Send a content update to an open peer destination before the save notification.

When Save As writes over a clean file that is open in another group, saveFileAs skips NotifyLSPChange. afterFileSave then sends only didSave with the new text. The client never requests includeText, so a language server is not required to use that text. The server can keep the previous content for main.go until the next edit. Diagnostics and other language features can then reflect the old content.

Send a didChange with the saved buffer for every peer view of the saved path that the language server has open. Send it before didSave, using the next document version.

Preserve valid divider proportions outside 5–95%.

With a 200-row split, dragging the bottom group to its permitted six-row minimum produces BottomRatio = 0.03. Saving preserves that value, but this check restores 0.5 instead. The bottom group becomes 100 rows, and startup persistence overwrites the saved proportion. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Accept valid finite ratios between zero and one. Let ContentSplitWidget enforce minimum cell sizes. Add a focused restoration test for this ratio.
