fix!: restore no-op flags margin, no-clear and no-clear-start - #1220
The changes update reload retention, terminal cleanup, margin layout, history writing, key parsing, and current-item ANSI handling. They also revise CLI and manpage text, narrow the SkimWidget export, and add related tests.
Changes: Reload item retention
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Retain and replace items during reload src/skim.rs, src/tui/item_list.rs, src/tui/app.rs, src/options.rs, src/skim_tests.rs, ARCHITECTURE.md
Reloads can retain displayed items while results are pending. Incoming non-empty results replace retained items. Rendering clears the list after an empty completed reload when no_clear_if_empty is disabled.
Terminal exit behavior
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Preserve the interface on exit src/skim.rs, src/tui/backend.rs, src/tui/windows.rs, tests/interactive.rs, ARCHITECTURE.md
The TUI uses no_clear during exit cleanup. When enabled, exit retains the interface and writes a newline. Panic and Windows signal cleanup pass false.
Margins accept one to four fixed or percentage values. The layout applies them before splitting preview and work areas. Invalid values fail CLI validation and cause library layout construction to panic.
History writes
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Apply history limits and deduplication src/bin/main.rs, tests/cli.rs, ARCHITECTURE.md
History writes skip blank new entries, avoid a duplicate last entry, and retain only the newest entries within the configured limit.
Key parsing
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Recognize key aliases and Unicode characters src/binds.rs, src/binds_tests.rs, src/tui/app_tests.rs
The parser accepts pgdn and del aliases and recognizes single Unicode characters, including shifted Unicode characters.
Current-item output
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Apply ANSI stripping to current items src/output.rs, tests/cli.rs
Current-item output strips ANSI sequences when enabled and preserves them when stripping is disabled.
Option and manpage descriptions are revised. Tests check generated help and manpage output, disabled-item filtering, command stderr, history limits, and trace logging. The cli feature enables optional roff, and assert_enum_variants is a development dependency. SkimWidget is crate-private, while SkimRender remains public.

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to e9a3c
The PR restores the margin, no-clear and no-clear-start behavior and makes small related fixes. The one public API concern, narrowing SkimWidget, is documented in the changelog as a breaking change. No merge-blocking risk remains.

Explanation
[#1219] The only active directly linked issue reports that --margin has no visible effect. The whole-PR summary (merge base to head) shows the fix. src/tui/layout.rs now stores parsed margins in LayoutTemplate (top, right, bottom, left). from_options parses options.margin through parse_margin. apply converts fixed and percentage margins to cells, then shrinks and offsets the layout area before the preview and work areas are split. parse_margin accepts one to four non-negative values. src/tui/layout_tests.rs covers fixed, percentage, four-value, and resized-area margins, and a 100% margin. src/tui/app_tests.rs renders an App with a 100% margin. src/options.rs validates the CLI margin value, and tests/cli.rs covers invalid margin values. The issue does not define an exact expected appearance. No end-to-end test asserts rendered margin output. The layout code and unit tests establish the behavior. The #1167 and ratatui references are background only. Conclusion: the margin requirement is met.
Full details: Title check
Explanation
The title uses the conventional commit prefix "fix!:" and names the three flags involved (margin, no-clear, no-clear-start). The changeset restores margin handling, no-clear behavior, and no-clear-start reload behavior, so the title matches the main change. The "!" marks a breaking change, which the changelog supports through its SkimWidget crate-private entry. The title is concise and descriptive, though the breaking-change marker is arguable because the summary's main breaking item is the SkimWidget visibility change, not the flag fixes.
Full details: Test Coverage
Explanation
The PR changes are covered by unit and integration tests. I checked the committed diff against refs/coderabbit/pre-merge-check/base. Margins (bug fix and new feature branches) - src/tui/layout_tests.rs: margins_apply_to_all_widgets_and_resize covers fixed, percentage, two-, three-, and four-value margins. It also covers resized-area recalculation and the 100% margin case. margins_reject_invalid_values covers the error branches of parse_margin. - src/skim_tests.rs: init_panics_for_invalid_margin covers the panic path. - tests/cli.rs: margin_rejects_invalid_cli_values covers the CLI rejection path. - src/tui/app_tests.rs: render_with_margins_larger_than_the_screen covers the 100% margin and border render path. It also exercises the saturating_sub change in header.rs. No-clear, reload, and keep-on-reload branches - src/skim_tests.rs: no_clear_start_keeps_items_until_reload_results_or_completion covers five combinations of no_clear_start and no_clear_if_empty. It checks both empty and non-empty reload output, and the stale-item path. - attaching_tui_sets_no_clear_before_event_handling covers the no_clear copy in init_tui_with, for both values. - src/tui/backend.rs: repeated_exit_keeps_cursor_position_until_reentry covers the exited flag, the no_clear fullscreen and inline branches, and re-entry. - tests/interactive.rs: no_clear_preserves_rows_in_inline_and_fullscreen_modes covers Enter and Escape exits across three layouts and two heights. Other changed behavior - src/binds_tests.rs: covers del, delete, pgdn, é, shifted non-ASCII keys with prefixes, and the shift-ß error case. This covers the parse_key branches. - src/tui/app_tests.rs: handle_key_matches_shifted_unicode_binding covers the review-thread fix for shift-ä and Ä. - src/bin/main.rs: write_history_enforces_zero_and_reduced_limits covers the zero and reduced limit branches. The existing empty-latest test was updated. tests/cli.rs adds zero_history_limits_write_empty_files. - src/output.rs: print_current_respects_ansi_output_flags covers both strip_ansi values. tests/cli.rs adds print_current_strips_ansi_unless_disabled. - src/manpage.rs: help_and_manpage_document_every_visible_option and shipped_manpage_matches_generator add documentation checks. - tests/cli.rs: disabled_items_are_not_printed_in_filter_mode, show_cmd_error_includes_command_stderr, and the log-level change cover the test-harness and behavior edits. Remaining gaps (minor) - The Windows Ctrl-C handler change (cleanup_terminal(false) in windows.rs) has no test. It is a one-line change and Windows-only. - The panic-hook change (cleanup_terminal(false)) has no direct test. - The SkimWidget visibility and _default to default_inner rename have no test. These are API-shape changes, not behavior. - The interactive --no-clear test depends on the Zellij harness. It may not run in every environment. These gaps do not outweigh the coverage of the new branches and bug-fix paths. The check passes.

Explanation
The PR includes changes that do not connect to #1219, which covers only --margin. The whole-PR summary shows these unrelated groups: history write rules in src/bin/main.rs and tests; parse_key changes in src/binds.rs and src/binds_tests.rs; --print-current ANSI stripping in src/output.rs; the Windows Ctrl-C cleanup change in src/tui/windows.rs; no-clear and reload behavior in src/skim.rs, src/tui/item_list.rs (keep_on_reload), src/tui/app.rs, src/tui/backend.rs, and tests/interactive.rs; unrelated tests/cli.rs tests; documentation and manpage edits in src/options.rs, src/manpage.rs, and ARCHITECTURE.md; the SkimWidget visibility change and CHANGELOG entry; and the refactor-only renames in src/tui/header.rs, src/tui/input.rs, src/tui/preview.rs, and src/tui/widget.rs, plus the Cargo.toml change. The PR title names no-clear and no-clear-start, but #1219 does not require them. Each group changes separate behavior, and none is required for margin support. This result is unchanged from the previous review because the current whole-PR summary still contains these groups.
Resolution
Remove the unrelated changes from this PR, or move each group into its own PR linked to its own issue. At minimum, remove: the history write changes in src/bin/main.rs and their tests; the key parsing changes in src/binds.rs and src/binds_tests.rs; the --print-current ANSI stripping in src/output.rs; the Windows cleanup change in src/tui/windows.rs; the no-clear, reload, and keep_on_reload changes in src/skim.rs, src/tui/item_list.rs, src/tui/app.rs, src/tui/backend.rs, and tests/interactive.rs; the unrelated documentation, manpage, ARCHITECTURE.md, and CHANGELOG edits; the SkimWidget visibility change in src/tui/widget.rs and src/tui/mod.rs; the unrelated tests/cli.rs tests; and the refactor-only renames in src/tui/header.rs, src/tui/input.rs, and src/tui/preview.rs together with the Cargo.toml change. Keep the margin parsing and layout changes in src/tui/layout.rs, the margin tests in src/tui/layout_tests.rs and src/tui/app_tests.rs, the margin CLI validation in src/options.rs, the margin panic path in src/skim.rs, and the margin documentation. Then re-run the margin tests.

- Line 250: Update parse_key so an explicit shift binding such as “shift-ä”
normalizes to the same KeyEvent as the equivalent uppercase character binding,
matching the event App::handle_key receives. Add a regression test confirming
both forms compare equal and the binding can be matched.
Review comments at @src/tui/backend.rs:
- Line 168: Initialize `no_clear` before the event loop can handle `Event::Quit`
or `Event::Close`, rather than assigning it only in `output()` after the loop.
Update the `Tui::exit` cleanup flow around `cleanup_terminal` so repeated exits
do not apply cursor movement more than once.

- Around line 53-55: Update the readiness predicate over expected strings and
the retention filter so neither can accept the echoed launch command as rendered
interface output. Ensure both checks match only rows produced by the interface,
for example by making the expected strings absent from the literal command text;
preserve the post-exit comparison against genuinely rendered rows.

Keep _default on SkimWidget to avoid a breaking change.
SkimWidget is public, so the rename of its method _default to default_inner changes the public trait API. Downstream code that calls _default() fails to compile. Downstream implementations that override _default also fail, because the trait no longer defines that method. Restore _default as a compatibility method that delegates to default_inner, or mark the rename as an intentional breaking change in the changelog and release notes.
