Releases

Terminals

• —"Name Follows Folder" now works over SSH — including when you ssh into a server from an ordinary terminal, the name tracks the remote directory as you cd around
• —The folder name now updates the instant you cd, rather than on the next keystroke

Workspaces

• —New single-view mode — instead of tiling panes, view one at a time and switch between them from the workspace sidebar. Toggle it per workspace from the right-click menu or ⌘⇧\, or make it the default for new workspaces in Settings

Interface

• —The title bar is now always present, with quick toggles for the left and right panels alongside the terminal, folder, and settings actions
• —Settings open from the welcome screen too — the drawer slides down into the main area without needing a workspace open first

Terminals

• —Rename terminals — double-click a terminal's title in its header, or its entry in the workspace sidebar, to give it a custom name
• —New "Name Follows Folder" mode — opt in from Settings and each terminal is named after its current folder, updating live as you cd around

Performance

• —Switching workspaces is faster — only the active workspace's panes stay mounted, and editors now return to exactly where you left off (scroll position and selection preserved)
• —Dragging the sidebars to resize is noticeably smoother

Fixes

• —Fixed the pane corner-resize handle jumping away from the cursor when the UI scale was set above 100%

A fresh look

• —Redesigned default theme — a deeper, cooler near-black palette with softer borders and a subtle glow on the focused pane
• —Settings now open in a drawer that slides down from the title bar and pushes your panes aside — no more separate window. Drag its edge to resize; Esc or ⌘, to close
• —Every resize handle — pane splitters and sidebar dividers — unified into one clean rounded indicator

Editor

• —Go to Definition and Go to Declaration now work reliably — they could previously do nothing on a valid symbol. Declaration falls back to definition when a language server doesn't implement it

Terminal

• —Fixed a large blank gap appearing under the prompt when scrolling up through terminal scrollback

Claude fullscreen mode

• —Fixed terminal scrolling running away at light speed when Claude Code's new fullscreen rendering is active — trackpad and wheel now scroll a sane amount per gesture
• —Right-click now always opens the terminal menu, even while a fullscreen/mouse-tracking app is running

Syntax highlighting

• —Fixed syntax highlighting rendering as plain monochrome for every language — colors are back for Python, Rust, JS/TS, HTML, CSS, JSON and Markdown

UI scale fixes

• —Pane resize dividers now sit exactly under the cursor at any UI scale — no more jumping away on wide monitors
• —Tab drag-and-drop drops at the right spot under UI scale too

Claude session HUD

• —The terminal header now shows a live readout for the Claude Code session running in it — context-window usage and session cost, at a glance

Editor & terminal fixes

• —Fixed editor text selection landing offset from the cursor when UI scale wasn't 100% — selection now tracks exactly, however far you drag
• —Only the focused terminal's cursor blinks now — unfocused panes show a steady hollow cursor, so switching workspaces no longer leaves every terminal flashing
• —Switching workspaces focuses the active pane, so you can start typing immediately without clicking first

UI scale positioning

• —Fixed terminal text selection and right-click menus landing below and to the right of the cursor when UI scale was turned up
• —Context menus everywhere — terminal, editor, file explorer, tabs, and the workspace list — now position correctly under any UI scale

Quality of life

• —The theme picker stays open while you click through themes, so you can preview and scroll the list without it closing each time
• —Added "Open Terminal" to the welcome screen alongside "Open Folder"

macOS permissions fix

• —Fixed an endless "Splice would like to access files in your Documents folder" prompt loop — the app bundle is now properly signed, so macOS remembers the permission grant
• —Releases now publish automatically instead of staying as drafts

Open from Finder

• —Splice now appears in Finder's Open With menu for any text or source file, and for folders — open a project straight into a workspace

Terminal stability

• —Fixed a freeze where a rare escape sequence (e.g. detaching screen with a full scrollback) could blank a terminal and leave it unresponsive until the pane was recreated — the parser now recovers instead of locking up

Layout fixes

• —Fixed terminals duplicating across panes when opening a file reshaped the layout — each pane now keeps its own terminal
• —File explorer width is now remembered per workspace — switch projects and the sidebar stays the width you set for each
• —New windows no longer show a stray "Splice" title — every window matches

Image file viewer

• —Open PNG, JPG, GIF, WEBP, SVG, ICO, and BMP files directly in a pane — no external app needed

Send to Claude

• —Select text in any file and send it directly to a Claude Code session running in your workspace
• —Right-click an empty workspace area to open a new Claude session from scratch

File tree

• —Expanded folder state now persists across workspace switches — your tree stays exactly how you left it
• —Fixed lag when files or folders were created by an external process (e.g. Claude Code writing new files)

Terminal fixes

• —Fixed Ctrl key passthrough and focus timing so Ctrl+C, Ctrl+Z, etc. always land in the right terminal
• —Fixed terminal not resizing correctly after zooming a pane back out

Terminal fixes

Triggered by Claude Code v2.1.83 exposing edge cases in escape sequence handling.

• —Fixed SGR sub-param parsing: curly underlines (4:3m) no longer mistakenly set italic; 4:0m no longer resets all attributes
• —Fixed xterm Modify Other Keys (CSI > m) being treated as SGR — was underlining and dimming all text
• —Fixed Kitty keyboard protocol (CSI = u, CSI < u) being treated as cursor-restore — was jumping cursor to top of screen

Session resume

• —Fixed a startup race that left an outdated Claude hook in ~/.claude/settings.json, causing all Claude sessions to save as null and never resume

macOS dock menu

• —Right-click the Splice icon in the Dock → "New Window"

Shipped

• —Multi-pane editor with split support (horizontal and vertical)
• —Custom terminal emulator (Snakebite, Canvas 2D — no xterm.js)

• —SSH remote workspaces with SFTP file operations
• —File tree with inline create, rename, and delete
• —Multi-workspace sessions with full persistence
