# PR Title

Implement shared compact split and unified tool-call diff layout

---
Fixes #268 
# PR Description

## Summary

This PR makes tool-call diffs more compact in both `Unified` and `Split`
views by reducing wasted horizontal space in line-number gutters and
content indentation.

## What changed

- introduced a shared compact-diff framework for tool-call diffs
- kept mobile-specific policy limited to:
  - forcing unified mode below the breakpoint
  - enabling wrap only in mobile unified mode
- added mode-specific compact applicators in the diff viewer:
  - unified applicator
  - split applicator
- reduced gutter width waste by measuring rendered line-number text and
tightening column width around it
- removed unnecessary right-side content padding
- aligned `+` / `-` markers closer to the left edge across both views
- simplified cleanup after gatekeeper review by removing extra plumbing
and residue

/>

## Architectural approach

This change intentionally uses:

- shared policy in
`packages/ui/src/components/tool-call/diff-render.tsx`
- shared helper/measurement logic in
`packages/ui/src/components/diff-viewer.tsx`
- mode-specific applicators where unified and split DOM differ
- CSS for shared visual spacing and alignment cleanup

The goal was to keep the implementation architecturally clean and avoid
building separate duplicated compact-diff features for:

- mobile vs desktop
- unified vs split

Instead, the feature shares one compact-diff concept and only diverges
where the upstream diff DOM requires separate handling.

## Files changed

- `packages/ui/src/components/tool-call/diff-render.tsx`
- `packages/ui/src/components/diff-viewer.tsx`
- `packages/ui/src/styles/messaging/tool-call.css`
- `packages/ui/src/types/message.ts`

## Validation

Manual validation was performed in the running UI.

Verified manually:

- compact unified gutters on mobile
- compact unified gutters on desktop
- compact split gutters on desktop
- tighter operator alignment in both modes

Also verified:

- `npm run typecheck` passes

## Notes

- This PR is intended to address the compact diff layout problem
described in the related issue.
- Diff-specific CSS still lives in `tool-call.css`; future extraction
into a smaller dedicated stylesheet is possible but not required for
this change.

CodeNomad UI

This package contains the frontend user interface for CodeNomad, built with SolidJS and Tailwind CSS.

Overview

The UI is designed to be a high-performance, low-latency cockpit for managing OpenCode sessions. It connects to the CodeNomad server (either running locally via CLI or embedded in the Electron app).

Features

  • SolidJS: Fine-grained reactivity for high performance.
  • Tailwind CSS: Utility-first styling for rapid development.
  • Vite: Fast build tool and dev server.

Development

To run the UI in standalone mode (connected to a running server):

npm run dev

This starts the Vite dev server at http://localhost:3000.

Building

To build the production assets:

npm run build

The output will be generated in the dist directory, which is then consumed by the Server or Electron app.

Debug Logging

The UI now routes all logging through a lightweight wrapper around debug. The logger exposes four namespaces that can be toggled at runtime:

  • sse Server-sent event transport and handlers
  • api HTTP/API calls and workspace lifecycle
  • session Session/model state, prompt handling, tool calls
  • actions User-driven interactions in UI components

You can enable or disable namespaces from DevTools (in dev or production builds) via the global window.codenomadLogger helpers:

window.codenomadLogger?.listLoggerNamespaces() // => [{ name: "sse", enabled: false }, ...]
window.codenomadLogger?.enableLogger("sse") // turn on SSE logs
window.codenomadLogger?.disableLogger("sse") // turn them off again
window.codenomadLogger?.enableAllLoggers() // optional helper

Enabled namespaces are persisted in localStorage under opencode:logger:namespaces, so your preference survives reloads.
