Crate sim_view_tty 

Loadable terminal (CLI/TUI) view/edit surface for SIM.

The thesis: a terminal is one surface, not a baked subcommand. The sim binary stays a bootloader; this crate is a library loaded at runtime that projects a Scene to text and reduces terminal key input to Intent values. Nothing here parses argv or owns the process. Both directions are pure and deterministic, so the whole surface is testable without a tty:

• render_scene fits a scene to a SurfaceCaps (via the view crate’s density projection) and walks it to stable ASCII.
• intent_from_key turns a normalized KeyInput into a validated Intent.

The CLI and TUI presets differ only in advertised capabilities – a cli surface is keyboard-only ANSI, a tui surface adds pointer input and a richer palette – which the projection ranker reads. Build them with cli_caps and tui_caps.

Example

use sim_view_tty::{cli_caps, render_scene};

let scene = sim_lib_scene::build::text_node("ready");
let text = render_scene(&scene, &cli_caps("tty.local.1"));
assert_eq!(text, "ready");

Enums

KeyInput

A normalized terminal key event, decoded from raw input upstream.

Functions

cli_caps

Builds the cli surface capabilities with client_id set.

intent_from_key

Reduces a key event to a validated Intent for pane/target at tick.

palette_intent_from_colon

Drives the shared command palette from a :-prompt entry.

render_palette

Renders the shared command palette overlay to deterministic terminal text.

render_scene

Renders scene to deterministic terminal text for the surface caps.

tui_caps

Builds the tui surface capabilities with client_id set.
