2026-10-22agent search: spotlight-style fuzzy finder on ctrl+opt+cmd+shift+uIgor Soarez
a centered, non-activating key panel that lists every agent and jumps to the chosen one through the same dingger focus path as a row click. - fzf-style matching: each word must match one of name, session, window, harness, status, or directory, letters in order; the best alignment wins (word starts and consecutive runs score higher), matched title letters are highlighted. - empty query keeps the menu's order, so enter jumps to the top waiting agent. - the selection follows the agent, not the position, as states change; the list scrolls to keep it visible. - keys: arrows, ctrl+n/p, ctrl+j/k, enter, esc, ctrl+u; the shortcut again or clicking elsewhere closes it. - search_hotkey setting; an unedited config file is upgraded. menu item "Search Agents...". rows carry the pane's directory. - --print-search and --snapshot-search debug flags; the panel's background and snapshot code are shared. selftest covers matching, ranking, highlighting, and selection; e2e step 15 checks queries through the real binary (fails when search only looks at titles). e2e resolves relative binary paths, which tmux hooks need.
2026-10-22panel: on/off is persistent; what it shows is a separate settingIgor Soarez
hiding the panel with the shortcut used to last only until another agent started waiting: one action meant both "not now" and "off", with an invisible override on top of a three-way mode. now there are two visible settings: the panel is on or off (ctrl+opt+cmd+e and a checkmarked "Show Panel" item), and while on it shows always or only when agents are waiting ("Panel Shows"). off stays off. turning it on with nothing to show peeks for 3 seconds. the old mode setting migrates. selftest covers the rules; it fails if a waiting agent can show a panel that is off.
2026-10-20panel: readable everywhere, compact/full toggle, change-driven; jump shortcutIgor Soarez
- contrast: the summary used attributed-string colors (never vibrant) and the subtitles a vibrant system color, so they blended differently over light and dark desktops. the panel now uses herdr's mocha colors explicitly over a dark tint, identical on any background. - layout: compact in "when agents are waiting"; in "always" a show all / show less toggle switches to the full list (waiting, separator, rest). - rows are single-line with a trailing ellipsis instead of wrapping. - render only when the content changes, and log each render, instead of rebuilding every view every second. - --snapshot-panel renders the real panel offscreen over white and black after a different first render (stale content would show). - jump shortcut ctrl+opt+cmd+u (jump_hotkey) runs dingger focus; shortcuts are registered by id. an unedited first config file is upgraded. selftest covers the layout rules and content; e2e step 13 checks the full list, its separator, and the toggle labels.
2026-10-20floating panel: always-on-top agent HUD with a global shortcutIgor Soarez
a non-activating HUD panel (every Space, over full-screen apps, never takes focus) listing the agents waiting for you, with working and idle summarized on one line; rows jump to the agent, drag moves the panel and it remembers its place. modes: when agents are waiting (default), always, off; ctrl+opt+ cmd+e shows or hides it on top of the mode, and a manual hide lasts until another agent starts waiting. the shortcut is a carbon hotkey (no accessibility permission; clashes are reported in the menu) configured in ~/.config/dingger/config.toml, reloaded on save. the menu bar app is split into model, panel, hotkey and main. tested: --selftest checks the visibility rules (it fails if a newly waiting agent no longer re-shows a dismissed panel); e2e step 13 checks the panel content through the real binary.
2026-10-20rebuild the status model as herdr's state machine, event-driven and testedIgor Soarez
the seen logic was inverted: first observations were marked done and real completions idle, so the menu showed teal for agents that did nothing and green for agents that finished, and attending changed nothing visible. - watcher::advance is herdr's apply_pane_state_change + mark_active_tab_seen as a pure function, unit-tested against herdr's own cases; attendance is window-level like herdr's active tab - hook reports are events applied in order, so a turn shorter than a poll is still a completion - event-driven: hook reports, dingger focus, and tmux focus hooks wake the watcher; notifications are delivered off-thread (the macos call blocked ticks for 2+ seconds) after the pane options are written - all per-pane state persists in tmux pane options, so restarts and deploys lose nothing, including the authoritative hook state - every click goes through dingger focus: the menu bar shells out to it and the status-line binding runs it; it picks the right client, skips the window already shown, and activates the terminal app hosting the client - the ready queue is ordered like the menu (blocked first, then oldest done) - menu bar and tmux segment render herdr's symbols in herdr's palette - tests/e2e.sh: 60 assertions against an isolated tmux server with a real client, a 30s poll interval, and a slow fake notifier
2026-10-19wait for tmux at startup, force utf-8 for tmux clients, add launchd packagingIgor Soarez
running under launchd, the tmux client defaults to the c locale, which makes tmux mangle tab-separated -f output into underscores, so every pane parsed as one field and the watcher silently saw nothing; invoke tmux with -u so format output is locale-independent. drop the startup fail-fast: the watcher now waits for a tmux server and attaches when one appears, which is the right shape for a login agent. ship the launchd plist under packaging/launchd.
2026-10-19initial dingger: tmux agent watcher with herdr's detection engineIgor Soarez
extract detect-core from herdr's src/detect (engine + 22 manifests, tests unchanged) and add the dingger binary: tmux capture-pane watcher, process-tree agent identification, herdr's notification policy, embedded notification sounds, @agent_state write-back, and catalog-based manifest refresh. viewer screens are non-observations per the engine contract; reviewed by a three-model panel (opus 5.5, gpt 6.1 sol, kimi k3) with all confirmed findings applied as deletions.
