What the mounted story proves

  1. 01

    SearchInput

    Representative 120×40 terminal state.

  2. 02

    Passive paint

    No keyboard or pointer action is claimed by this representative story.

  3. 03

    Evidence stays explicit

    3 covered · 8 partial · 5 missing axes.

03 · Implement

Install, then start from exact code

Install

cargo add termrock --git https://github.com/tailrocks/termrock.git --rev 5283c2acf9154d0cfcd37b1ffe821c00faf90ea2

Add TermRock once. Keep domain effects in the host application.

Advanced guidance

Authored implementation guidance

Purpose. Query chrome for tables, logs, quick-open, palettes, and inspectors. TermRock owns typing, clear, history, metadata strip, and debounce signals. Hosts own filtering, scoring, and async search.

Debounce (no async inside)

Duration::ZERO debounce + flush_debounce() for immediate apply.

Escape

  1. Non-empty → clear → Cleared
  2. Empty → Cancelled (dismiss)

Status projection

Host sets SearchStatus::{Idle,Searching,Results{count},NoResults,Error} after its own search completes. Never computed by scanning domain data inside the widget.

Metadata before query

Leading icon + active SearchFilterChips paint left of the editable query so filter context contracts first under narrow widths.

Ownership boundary

TermRock owns reusable terminal rendering and interaction state. The host owns domain data, policy, persistence, authorization, and side effects.

Evidence status

3 covered, 8 partial, and 5 missing contract axes. Missing evidence is not a behavior claim.
