This PR introduces a new `MultiBufferOffset` new type wrapping size. The
goal of this is to make it clear at the type level when we are
interacting with offsets of a multi buffer versus offsets of a language
/ text buffer. This improves readability of things quite a bit by making
it clear what kind of offsets one is working with while also reducing
accidental bugs by using the wrong kin of offset for the wrong API.
This PR also uncovered two minor bugs due to that.
Does not yet introduce the MultiBufferPoint equivalent, that is for a
follow up PR.
Release Notes:
- N/A *or* Added/Fixed/Improved ...
Closes#39172
This refactors when we resolve UI keybindings in an effort to reduce
flickering whilst painting these: Previously, we would always resolve
these upon creating the binding. This could lead to cases where the
corresponding context was not yet available and no binding could be
resolved, even if the binding was then available on the next presented
frame. Following that, on the next rerender of whatever requested this
keybinding, the keybind for that context would then be found, we would
render that and then also win a layout shift in that process, as we went
from nothing rendered to something rendered between these frames.
With these changes, this now happens less often, because we only look
for the keybinding once the context can actually be resolved in the
window.

Also reduced cloning in the keymap editor in this process, since that
requiered changing due to this anyway.
Release Notes:
- Fixed some cases where keybinds would appear with a slight delay,
causing a flicker in the process
I love keybindings.
I spend way to much time thinking about them.
I also REALLY like working in Zed.
so far, however, I have found the key context system in Zed to be less
flexible than in VSCode.
the HUGE context that is available in VSCode helps you create
keybindings for very specific targeted scenarios.
the tree like structure of the Zed key context means you loose some
information as focus moves throughout the application.
For example, it is not currently possible to create a keybinding in the
editor that will only work when one of the Docks is open, or if a
specific dock is open.
this would be useful in implementing solutions to ideas like #24222
we already have an action for moving focus to the dock, and we have an
action for opening/closing the dock, but to my knowledge (very limited
lol) we cannot determine if that dock *is open* unless we are focused on
it.
I think it is possible to create a more flexible key binding system by
adding more context information to the higher up context ancestors.
while:
```
Workspace right_dock=GitPanel
Dock
GitPanel
Editor
```
may seem redundant, it actually communicates fundamentally different
information than:
```
Workspace right_dock=GitPanel
Pane
Editor
```
the first says "the GitPanel is in the right hand dock AND IT IS
FOCUSED",
while the second means "Focus is on the Editor, and the GitPanel just
happens to be open in the right hand dock"
This change adds a new set of identifiers to the `Workspace` key_context
that will indicate which docks are open and what is the specific panel
that is currently visible in that dock.
examples:
- `left_dock=ProjectPanel`
- `bottom_dock=TerminalPanel`
- `right_dock=GitPanel`
in my testing the following types of keybindings seem to be supported
with this change:
```jsonc
// match for any value of the identifier
"context": "Workspace && bottom_dock"
"context": "Workspace && !bottom_dock"
// match only a specific value to an identifier
"context": "Workspace && bottom_dock=TerminalPanel"
// match only in a child context if the ancestor workspace has the correct identifier
"context": "Workspace && !bottom_dock=DebugPanel > Editor"
```
some screen shots of the context matching in different circumstances:

the persistent_name values for `ProjectPanel` and `OutlinePanel` needed
to be updated to not have a space in them in order to pass the
`Identifier` check. all the other Panels already had names that did not
include spaces, so it just makes these conform with the other ones.
I think this is a great place to start with adding more context
identifiers and i think this type of additional information will make it
possible to create really dynamic keybindings!
Release Notes:
- Workspace key context now includes the state of the 3 docks
Fixes#39998
Debugpy and pylsp are installed in a Zed-global venv with pip. We need a
Python interpreter to create this venv when it doesn't exist and one of
these tools needs to be installed, and sometimes we attempt to use
`python3` from `$PATH`. This can cause issues on Windows, where out of
the box `python3` is a sort of shim that opens the Microsoft Store app.
This PR changes the debugpy installation path to create the Zed-global
venv using the Python interpreter from a venv in the project, and only
use python3 from `$PATH` if that fails. That matches how pylsp
installation already works. It also tightens up how we search for a
global Python installation by doing a basic sanity check (`python3 -c
'print(1 + 2)`) before accepting it, which should catch the Windows
shim.
Release Notes:
- windows: improved the behavior of Zed in situations where no global
Python installation exists.
Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/38690Closes#37353
### Background
On Windows, paths are normally separated by `\`, unlike mac and linux
where they are separated by `/`. When editing code in a project that
uses a different path style than your local system (e.g. remoting from
Windows to Linux, using WSL, and collaboration between windows and unix
users), the correct separator for a path may differ from the "native"
separator.
Previously, to work around this, Zed converted paths' separators in
numerous places. This was applied to both absolute and relative paths,
leading to incorrect conversions in some cases.
### Solution
Many code paths in Zed use paths that are *relative* to either a
worktree root or a git repository. This PR introduces a dedicated type
for these paths called `RelPath`, which stores the path in the same way
regardless of host platform, and offers `Path`-like manipulation APIs.
RelPath supports *displaying* the path using either separator, so that
we can display paths in a style that is determined at runtime based on
the current project.
The representation of absolute paths is left untouched, for now.
Absolute paths are different from relative paths because (except in
contexts where we know that the path refers to the local filesystem)
they should generally be treated as opaque strings. Currently we use a
mix of types for these paths (std::path::Path, String, SanitizedPath).

This button already exists in the main menu, as well as the "New
Session" view in the debugger panel. However, this view disappears after
starting the debugging session. This PR adds the same button to the
debugger control strip that remains accessible. This is convenient for
people editing their debug.json frequently.
Site-node: I feel like the `Cog` icon would be more appropriate, but I
picked `Code` to stay consistent with the "New Session" view.

Release Notes:

Closes#36280
Release Notes:
- Added additional context to debug task selection
Adding additional context when selecting a debug task to help with
projects that have multiple config files with similar names for tasks.
I think there is room for improvement, especially adding context for a
LanguageTask type. I started but it looked like it would need to add a
path value to that and wanted to make sure this was a good idea before
working on that.
Also any thoughts on the wording if you do like this format?

This PR cleans up some emitted events around the codebase. These events
are either never emitted or never listened for.
It seems better to re-implement these at some point should they again be
needed - this ensures that they will actually be fired in the cases
where they are needed as opposed to being there and getting unreliable
and stale (which is already the case for the majority of the events
removed here).
Lastly, this ensures the `CapabilitiesChanged` event is not fired too
often.
Release Notes:
- N/A
This removes around 900 unnecessary clones, ranging from cloning a few
ints all the way to large data structures and images.
A lot of these were fixed using `cargo clippy --fix --workspace
--all-targets`, however it often breaks other lints and needs to be run
again. This was then followed up with some manual fixing.
I understand this is a large diff, but all the changes are pretty
trivial. Rust is doing some heavy lifting here for us. Once I get it up
to speed with main, I'd appreciate this getting merged rather sooner
than later.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Took a little bit of time to add just a handful of small tweaks to the
debugger UI so it looks slightly more polished. This PR includes
adjustments to size, focus styles, and more in icon buttons, overall
spacing nudges in each section pane, making tooltip labels title case
(for overall consistency), and some icon SVG iteration.
Release Notes:
- N/A
I also removed a debug assertion that wasn't true when a debug session
was restarting through a request, because there wasn't a booting task
Zed needed to run before the session.
I renamed SessionState::Building to SessionState::Booting as well,
because building implies that we're building code while booting the
session covers more cases and is more accurate.
Release Notes:
- debugger: Filter out more invalid debug configurations from the debug
picker

This solves problems where users couldn't shut down sessions while
locators or build tasks are running.
I renamed `debugger::Session::Mode` enum to `SessionState` to be more
clear when it's referenced in other crates. I also embedded the boot
task that is created in `SessionState::Building` variant. This allows
sessions to shut down all created threads in their boot process in a
clean and idiomatic way.
Finally, I added a method on terminal that allows killing the active
task.
Release Notes:
- Debugger: Allow shutting down debug sessions while they're booting up
This PR updates the debugger panel's session list to be more useful in
some cases that are commonly hit when using the JavaScript adapter. We
make two adjustments, which only apply to JavaScript sessions:
- For a child session that's the only child of a root session, we
collapse it with its parent. This imitates what VS Code does in the
"call stack" view for JavaScript sessions.
- When a session has exactly one thread, we label the session with that
thread's name, instead of the session label provided by the DAP. VS Code
also makes this adjustment, which surfaces more useful information when
working with browser sessions.
Closes#33072
Release Notes:
- debugger: Improved the appearance of JavaScript sessions in the debug
panel's session list.

Restarting sessions was broken in #33273 when we moved away from calling
`kill` in the shutdown sequence. This PR re-adds that `kill` call so
that old debug adapter processes will be cleaned up when sessions are
restarted within Zed. This doesn't re-introduce the issue that motivated
the original changes to the shutdown sequence, because we still send
Disconnect/Terminate to debug adapters when quitting Zed without killing
the process directly.
We also now remove manually-restarted sessions eagerly from the session
list.
Closes#33916
Release Notes:
- debugger: Fixed not being able to restart sessions for Debugpy and
other adapters that communicate over TCP.
- debugger: Fixed debug adapter processes not being cleaned up.

We reworked the debug modal spawning to use the task context from past
debug sessions when spawning a debug scenario based on task inventory
history.
We changed restart session keybinding to rerun session too.

Follow-up to #32852. This time we'll check if the debug session is
initialized before querying threads.
Release Notes:
- Fix Zed's debugger issuing threads request before it is allowed to do
so per DAP specification.
Release Notes:
- Reorganized layout of a debug panel without any sessions for a
vertical dock position.
- Moved parent directories of source breakpoints into a tooltip.
This should silence a noisy log we see whenever a debug session is
started:
`2025-06-17T12:06:12+02:00 ERROR [project] no adapter running to send
request: ThreadsCommand`
Closes #ISSUE
Release Notes:
- Fixed debugger logs getting clobbered with internal logs about Threads
Command whenever a new debug session is created.
I also enabled the `Restart` action even for sessions that don't support
restarting because we have a restart fallback now.
Closes#31408
Release Notes:
- Fix bug where a debugger session would never be shutdown on a failed
restart attempt
As part of this I refactored the logic that enabled/disabled actions in
the debugger to happen at action registration time instead of using
command palette filters. This allows the menu to grey out actions correctly.
Release Notes:
- Add a "Run" menu to contain tasks and debugger
Closes #ISSUE
Release Notes:
- Debugger Beta: fixed an issue where the terminal pane of the debug
panel would be empty when debugging JavaScript.
