Background
Streaming assistant prose in tui2 was being rendered with viewport-width
wrapping during streaming, then stored in history cells as already split
`Line`s. Those width-derived breaks became indistinguishable from hard
newlines, so the transcript could not "un-split" on resize. This also
degraded copy/paste, since soft wraps looked like hard breaks.
What changed
- Introduce width-agnostic `MarkdownLogicalLine` output in
`tui2/src/markdown_render.rs`, preserving markdown wrap semantics:
initial/subsequent indents, per-line style, and a preformatted flag.
- Update the streaming collector (`tui2/src/markdown_stream.rs`) to emit
logical lines (newline-gated) and remove any captured viewport width.
- Update streaming orchestration (`tui2/src/streaming/*`) to queue and
emit logical lines, producing `AgentMessageCell::new_logical(...)`.
- Make `AgentMessageCell` store logical lines and wrap at render time in
`HistoryCell::transcript_lines_with_joiners(width)`, emitting joiners so
copy/paste can join soft-wrap continuations correctly.
Overlay deferral
When an overlay is active, defer *cells* (not rendered `Vec<Line>`) and
render them at overlay close time. This avoids baking width-derived
wraps based on a stale width.
Tests + docs
- Add resize/reflow regression tests + snapshots for streamed agent
output.
- Expand module/API docs for the new logical-line streaming pipeline and
clarify joiner semantics.
- Align scrollback-related docs/comments with current tui2 behavior
(main draw loop does not flush queued "history lines" to the terminal).
More details
See `codex-rs/tui2/docs/streaming_wrapping_design.md` for the full
problem statement and solution approach, and
`codex-rs/tui2/docs/tui_viewport_and_history.md` for viewport vs printed
output behavior.
Introduce a full codex-tui source snapshot under the new codex-tui2
crate so viewport work can be replayed in isolation.
This change copies the entire codex-rs/tui/src tree into
codex-rs/tui2/src in one atomic step, rather than piecemeal, to keep
future diffs vs the original viewport bookmark easy to reason about.
The goal is for codex-tui2 to render identically to the existing TUI
behind the `features.tui2` flag while we gradually port the
viewport/history commits from the joshka/viewport bookmark onto this
forked tree.
While on this baseline change, we also ran the codex-tui2 snapshot test
suite and accepted all insta snapshots for the new crate, so the
snapshot files now use the codex-tui2 naming scheme and encode the
unmodified legacy TUI behavior. This keeps later viewport commits
focused on intentional behavior changes (and their snapshots) rather
than on mechanical snapshot renames.
