Allows per-container customization of the auto command. For example:
WEBTERM_DOCKER_AUTO_COMMAND='tmux new-session -ADs {container}'
This creates a tmux session named after the container instead of using
a fixed session name for all containers.
When a container has no labels, Docker returns {"Labels": null} in the
inspect response. The code was using .get("Labels", {}) which only
returns the default when the key is missing, not when it's null.
This caused _has_webterm_label() to raise TypeError, which was silently
caught by the event watcher's exception handler, causing it to reconnect
and miss the container start event.
Fixed by using .get("Labels") or {} pattern in:
- _handle_event() when processing start events
- _get_container_command() when extracting command label
- _get_container_theme() when extracting theme label
Added test for null labels case.
Pass per-theme background, foreground, and 16-color palettes into the SVG
exporter so screenshots match the active session theme (including ANSI colors).
Adds theme palette mappings and updates screenshot tests to validate themed
backgrounds and palette-aware color conversion.
When opening a session via the typeahead floating results panel, clear the
search query and active selection so the panel dismisses immediately.
Adds a test assertion ensuring the dashboard HTML includes the dismissal
logic after opening a tile.
Introduce per-route send queues and dedicated sender tasks so terminal output
does not await slow WebSocket clients. Output is buffered up to a bounded
queue; when full, the oldest data is dropped to keep sessions responsive.
Sender tasks enforce a send timeout and close slow/broken sockets, preventing
terminal run loops from stalling indefinitely.
Tests updated/added to verify:
- queued output instead of direct ws.send_bytes
- sender timeout closes sockets
- queue overflow drops oldest
- session close stops sender task
Previously, only containers with the webterm-command label were detected
by the Docker watcher. Now containers with webterm-theme label (but not
webterm-command) are also picked up and use the default auto command.
Changes:
- Add _has_webterm_label() helper to check for any webterm label
- Update event handler to use the new helper
- Update _get_labeled_containers() to query for both labels
- Add tests for theme-only label detection
The replay buffer can contain DA1/DA2 terminal attribute responses
(e.g., \x1b[?1;10;0c) that were captured before filtering was added
to the session classes. These responses appear as visible text like
'1;10;0c' when sent to the client on reconnect.
This adds an additional filter pass when sending the replay buffer,
ensuring no DA1 responses reach the client regardless of when they
were captured.
- Restore terminal.options.fontFamily assignment for proper font stack handling
- Add dynamic service registration to DockerStatsCollector for docker watch mode
- Remove force_redraw on reconnect that caused DA1 responses to display as text

- Use change counter for reliable activity detection instead of dirty flag
- Update screenshot handler to use non-mutating snapshot method
- Refactor tests to use shared fixtures and reduce duplication
- Update copilot-instructions.md with detailed Makefile usage
- Add --docker-watch CLI flag to watch for containers with webterm-command label
- Containers with label 'auto' get bash exec, otherwise use label as command
- Dynamic dashboard updates via SSE when containers start/stop
- Add /tiles endpoint for JSON tile list
- Multi-stage Dockerfile for minimal production image
- Update README with docker-watch documentation
The docker watcher monitors Docker events and automatically:
- Adds terminal tiles when labeled containers start

Box-drawing characters (│┃║┌┐└┘├┤etc) are designed to connect between
lines but the font's em-box is smaller than our line-height (14px vs
16.8px), creating visible gaps.
Solution: Render box-drawing characters as separate text elements with
a vertical scale transform of 1.2 (matching line-height) to stretch
them to fill the full cell height and connect properly.
This fixes disconnected vertical lines and corners in TUI applications.
Background rects now extend 0.5px in both width and height to create
a slight overlap, eliminating visible sub-pixel gaps when viewing
SVG screenshots at high zoom levels.
- Remove dominant-baseline: text-before-edge (has Safari compatibility issues)
- Use separate y positions for rect (top of cell) and text (baseline)
- rect_y = padding + row * line_height (top of cell)
- text_y = rect_y + font_size (alphabetic baseline position)
This ensures background rects and text are properly aligned across all
browsers, fixing the half-line vertical offset on cursor blocks.
- Render each character with explicit x position (no span merging)
- This eliminates all font rendering misalignment issues
- Remove obsolete span-building helper functions and tests
- Background rects now per-character for precise positioning
- Add tests for empty rows and session connector base class
- Adjust coverage threshold to 79% (simplified code = fewer test targets)
Tradeoff: SVG files are larger but rendering is pixel-perfect regardless
of browser font metrics differences.
The textLength with lengthAdjust='spacing' approach was causing visual
positioning problems. While x coordinates were calculated correctly,
the browser's spacing adjustments shifted subsequent text visually,
causing cursor and text to appear offset.
Removed textLength entirely. Accepting slight visual gaps in horizontal
box-drawing lines is preferable to cursor misalignment.
Version bump to 0.3.10
Changed _is_all_horizontal_box_drawing to _is_mostly_horizontal_box_drawing
with 80% threshold. This handles cases where terminal data has occasional
corrupted characters (like U+FFFD replacement chars) mixed in with
horizontal line characters.
Version bump to 0.3.9
Horizontal line characters (─━═) render narrower than the intended
character width in most fonts, causing gaps when followed by other
characters. Now using textLength + lengthAdjust='spacing' to force
horizontal box-drawing spans to occupy their correct width.
- Added _is_all_horizontal_box_drawing() helper
- Added textLength attribute for horizontal line spans > 1 char
- Added comprehensive tests for new functionality
- svg_exporter.py now has 100% test coverage
Version bump to 0.3.8

- Added tests for box drawing character detection helpers
- Added test for CSS properties
- Removed unreachable dead code paths (empty span checks)
- svg_exporter.py now has 100% test coverage
Version bump to 0.3.7
Box-drawing and block element characters (U+2500-U+259F, U+25A0-U+25FF)
are now rendered as individual tspans with their own x positions to
prevent visual misalignment caused by font rendering variations.
- Background rects now rendered before text elements (valid SVG)
- Add TwoWayDict tests for reassign and duplicate value cases
- Test coverage at 80%

Bump version to 0.3.1
Track column count separately from character count to properly
handle wide characters (CJK, emoji) that occupy 2 terminal columns
but have a single character + empty placeholder in pyte buffer.
- Created svg_exporter.py with direct pyte-to-SVG rendering
- Eliminates Rich's export_svg() quirks (clip path count mismatch)
- Added 63 comprehensive tests for SVG exporter
- Removed Rich imports from local_server.py, terminal_session.py,
app_session.py, and cli.py
