Releases

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)

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