# @fusion/tui
Terminal UI components for fn, built with [Ink](https://github.com/vadimdemedes/ink) (React for the command line).
## Status
This package is under active development and not yet published.
## Terminal Compatibility
This package is designed for terminals with a minimum size of **80×24** characters:
- **Minimum width**: 80 columns
- **Minimum height**: 24 rows
When the terminal is smaller than these minimums, the UI enforces these bounds for layout calculations, ensuring consistent rendering across different terminal sizes.
## Responsive Layout
The TUI provides responsive layout utilities that adapt to terminal dimensions:
- **Minimum bounds**: Layouts always respect the 80×24 minimum, ensuring readability
- **Dynamic column widths**: Tables and lists compute column widths based on available space
- **Truncation with ellipsis**: Long content is automatically truncated with `…` (U+2026) when it exceeds the available width
## Installation
This package is part of the fn workspace and is not installed separately. It is available as a private workspace package.
## API Reference
### FusionProvider
The `FusionProvider` component initializes a `TaskStore` and provides it via React context.
```tsx
import { FusionProvider } from "@fusion/tui";
function App() {
return (
);
}
```
#### Props
| Prop | Type | Description |
|------|------|-------------|
| `projectDir` | `string` (optional) | Explicit project directory override. When provided, skips auto-detection. |
| `children` | `React.ReactNode` | Child components that will have access to the Fusion context. |
#### Behavior
- On mount, auto-detects the Fusion project by walking up from `process.cwd()` looking for `.fusion/fusion.db`
- If no project is found, renders a red error message
- On unmount, calls `store.close()` to cleanly shut down the SQLite connection
### useFusion
Hook to access the Fusion context. Must be used within a `FusionProvider`.
```tsx
import { useFusion } from "@fusion/tui";
function TaskList() {
const { store, projectPath } = useFusion();
useEffect(() => {
store.listTasks().then((tasks) => {
// Render tasks...
});
}, [store]);
return Project: {projectPath};
}
```
#### Returns
| Property | Type | Description |
|----------|------|-------------|
| `store` | `TaskStore` | The initialized TaskStore instance |
| `projectPath` | `string` | Absolute path to the project directory |
#### Throws
`Error` if used outside of a `FusionProvider`.
### detectProjectDir
Detect the Fusion project root directory by walking up from a starting path.
```typescript
import { detectProjectDir } from "@fusion/tui";
// Find project from current directory
const projectPath = detectProjectDir();
// Find project from a specific directory
const projectPath = detectProjectDir("/Users/me/code/my-project/src");
```
#### Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|-----------|------|-------------|
| `startPath` | `string` (optional) | Starting directory for the search (defaults to `process.cwd()`) |
#### Returns
The absolute path to the project root, or `null` if no project directory is detected.
### ScreenRouter
The `ScreenRouter` component provides a keyboard-navigable tab bar for switching between application screens.
```tsx
import { ScreenRouter } from "@fusion/tui";
function App() {
return (
{({ activeScreen }) => (
<>
{activeScreen === "board" && }
{activeScreen === "detail" && }
{activeScreen === "activity" && }
{activeScreen === "agents" && }
{activeScreen === "settings" && }
>
)}
);
}
```
#### Available Screens
The router manages five screens in this order:
| Index | Screen ID | Label | Shortcut |
|-------|-----------|-------|----------|
| 1 | `board` | Board | `1` |
| 2 | `detail` | Detail | `2` |
| 3 | `activity` | Activity | `3` |
| 4 | `agents` | Agents | `4` |
| 5 | `settings` | Settings | `5` |
#### Keyboard Navigation
| Key | Action |
|-----|--------|
| `1` - `5` | Jump directly to the corresponding tab |
| `Tab` | Cycle forward through tabs (wraps from end to start) |
| `Shift+Tab` | Cycle backward through tabs (wraps from start to end) |
#### Tab Bar Rendering
The tab bar displays all five tabs horizontally with:
- Active tab highlighted with bold text, cyan background, and black text
- Inactive tabs shown in white text
- A border line below the tab bar
#### Props
| Prop | Type | Description |
|------|------|-------------|
| `initialScreen` | `ScreenId` (optional) | Initial screen to display on mount (default: `"board"`) |
| `onScreenChange` | `(screenId: ScreenId) => void` (optional) | Callback when user navigates to a different screen |
| `activeScreen` | `ScreenId` (optional) | Externally controlled active screen |
| `children` | `(props: ScreenComponentProps) => React.ReactNode` | Render function that receives `activeScreen` and returns the screen content |
#### ScreenComponentProps
| Property | Type | Description |
|----------|------|-------------|
| `activeScreen` | `ScreenId` | The currently active screen ID (`"board"` \| `"detail"` \| `"activity"` \| `"agents"` \| `"settings"`) |
#### Exports
The following are exported from `@fusion/tui`:
- `ScreenRouter` — The main router component
- `SCREENS` — Array of screen definitions with `id`, `label`, and `shortcut`
- `getScreenById(id)` — Get screen definition by ID
- `getScreenIndex(id)` — Get screen index by ID
- `type ScreenId` — Type for screen identifiers
### Global Keyboard Shortcuts
The TUI provides centralized global keyboard shortcuts via the `useGlobalShortcuts` hook. Place this hook at the app root level to enable consistent shortcut handling across all screens.
```tsx
import { useGlobalShortcuts, HelpOverlay } from "@fusion/tui";
function App() {
const { helpVisible, toggleHelp } = useGlobalShortcuts({
onScreenChange: setActiveScreen,
});
return (
<>
{helpVisible && }
>
);
}
```
#### Available Shortcuts
| Key | Action | Focus Guard |
|-----|--------|-------------|
| `Ctrl+C` | Quit (emergency exit) | Always works |
| `q` | Quit | Only when no text input focused |
| `?` | Toggle help overlay | Only when no text input focused |
| `h` | Toggle help overlay (alternate) | Only when no text input focused |
| `1` - `5` | Switch screens | Only when no text input focused |
#### Focus Guard
Global shortcuts (except `Ctrl+C`) are suppressed when text input is focused. This prevents accidental navigation while typing.
To enable focus guarding for text inputs, import `FocusGuardRef` and set `isFocused` on focus/blur events:
```tsx
import { FocusGuardRef } from "@fusion/tui";
function TextInput() {
return (
{ FocusGuardRef.isFocused = true; }}
onBlur={() => { FocusGuardRef.isFocused = false; }}
/>
);
}
```
#### useGlobalShortcuts Hook
```tsx
const result = useGlobalShortcuts({
onScreenChange: (screenId) => {
// Handle screen switch triggered by number keys
},
});
```
##### Options
| Property | Type | Description |
|----------|------|-------------|
| `onScreenChange` | `(screenId: ScreenId) => void` (optional) | Callback when user presses 1-5 to switch screens |
##### Returns
| Property | Type | Description |
|----------|------|-------------|
| `helpVisible` | `boolean` | Whether the help overlay is currently visible |
| `toggleHelp` | `() => void` | Toggle the help overlay visibility |
| `hideHelp` | `() => void` | Hide the help overlay |
#### HelpOverlay Component
The `HelpOverlay` component displays available keyboard shortcuts. It handles `Escape` and `q` to close.
```tsx
```
##### Props
| Property | Type | Description |
|----------|------|-------------|
| `onClose` | `() => void` | Callback to close the overlay |
#### Exports
The following are exported from `@fusion/tui`:
- `useGlobalShortcuts` — Hook for handling global keyboard shortcuts
- `HelpOverlay` — Component for displaying keyboard shortcuts
- `FocusGuardRef` — Shared ref for tracking text input focus state
## Example
```tsx
import React, { useState } from "react";
import { render, Box } from "ink";
import { FusionProvider, useFusion, ScreenRouter, useGlobalShortcuts, HelpOverlay, ResponsiveHeader, ResponsiveTable, ResponsiveStatusBar } from "@fusion/tui";
function App() {
const { projectPath } = useFusion();
const [activeScreen, setActiveScreen] = useState("board");
// Global keyboard shortcuts

}
render(
);
```
## Responsive Layout Utilities
The TUI provides utilities for building responsive layouts that adapt to terminal dimensions.
### useTerminalDimensions
Hook to read live terminal dimensions from Ink's `useStdout()` with minimum bounds applied.
```tsx
import { useTerminalDimensions } from "@fusion/tui";
function MyComponent() {
const { columns, rows, isMinimumSize, extraColumns } = useTerminalDimensions();
return (
Terminal: {columns}x{rows}
{!isMinimumSize && (wider than minimum)}
);
}
```
#### Returns
| Property | Type | Description |
|----------|------|-------------|
| `columns` | `number` | Effective column count (minimum 80) |
| `rows` | `number` | Effective row count (minimum 24) |
| `isMinimumSize` | `boolean` | Whether terminal meets minimum size |
| `extraColumns` | `number` | Extra columns beyond the 80-column minimum |
### computeColumnLayout
Calculate column widths based on terminal dimensions and column definitions.
```tsx
import { computeColumnLayout } from "@fusion/tui";
const layout = computeColumnLayout(120, [
{ minWidth: 10, canGrow: false }, // Fixed-width ID column
{ minWidth: 30, canGrow: true, growWeight: 2 }, // Description (grows 2x)
{ minWidth: 15, canGrow: true }, // Status (grows 1x)
]);
console.log(layout.widths); // e.g., [10, 63, 47]
console.log(layout.totalWidth); // 120
```
#### Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
