### Context:
- Having a unified way of searching would allow for better debugging as
we move forward here. Right now we have remote/headless specific
searching and it's getting messy. This should allow for a more intuitive
function graph in the head for debugging environment related issues in
remote repl. The implementation mirrors python.rs approach.

This PR greatly improves our handling of remote threads in the sidebar.
One primary issue was that many parts of the sidebar were only looking
at a thread's path list and not its remote connection information. The
fix here is to use `ProjectGroupKey` more consistently throughout the
sidebar which also includes remote connection information.
The second major change is to extend the MultiWorkspace with the ability
to initiate the creation of remote workspaces when needed. This involved
refactoring a lot of our remote workspace creation paths to share a
single code path for better consistency.
Release Notes:
- (Preview only) Fixed remote project threads appearing as a separate
local project in the sidebar

### Summary
This PR starts work on adding basic hook support in the `TaskStore`. To
enable users to setup tasks that are ran when the agent panel creates a
new git worktree to start a thread in. It also adds a new task variable
called `ZED_MAIN_GIT_WORKTREE` that's the absolute path to the main repo
that the newly created linked worktree is based off of.
### Follow Ups
- Get this hook working with the git worktree picker as well
- Make a more general approach to the hook system in `TaskStore`
- Add `ZED_PORT_{1..10}` task variables
- Migrate the task context creation code from `task_ui` to the basic
context provider
Before you mark this PR as ready for review, make sure that you have:
- [ ] Added a solid test coverage and/or screenshots from doing manual
testing
- [x] Done a self-review taking into account security and performance
aspects
- [x] Aligned any UI changes with the [UI

This extracts a `language_core` crate from the existing `language`
crate, and creates a `grammars` data crate. The goal is to separate
tree-sitter grammar infrastructure, language configuration, and LSP
adapter types from the heavier buffer/editor integration layer in
`language`.
## Motivation
The `language` crate pulls in `text`, `theme`, `settings`, `rpc`,
`task`, `fs`, `clock`, `sum_tree`, and `fuzzy` — all of which are needed
for buffer integration (`Buffer`, `SyntaxMap`, `Outline`,
`DiagnosticSet`) but not for grammar parsing or language configuration.
Extracting the core types lets downstream consumers depend on
`language_core` without pulling in the full integration stack.
## Dependency graph after extraction
```
language_core ← gpui, lsp, tree-sitter, util, collections
grammars ← language_core, rust_embed, tree-sitter-{rust,python,...}
language ← language_core, text, theme, settings, rpc, task, fs, ...
languages ← language, grammars
```
## What moved to `language_core`
- `Grammar`, `GrammarId`, and all query config/builder types
- `LanguageConfig`, `LanguageMatcher`, bracket/comment/indent config
types
- `HighlightMap`, `HighlightId` (theme-dependent free functions
`highlight_style` and `highlight_name` stay in `language`)
- `LanguageName`, `LanguageId`
- `LanguageQueries`, `QUERY_FILENAME_PREFIXES`
- `CodeLabel`, `CodeLabelBuilder`, `Symbol`
- `Diagnostic`, `DiagnosticSourceKind`
- `Toolchain`, `ToolchainScope`, `ToolchainList`, `ToolchainMetadata`
- `ManifestName`
- `SoftWrap`
- LSP data types: `BinaryStatus`, `ServerHealth`,
`LanguageServerStatusUpdate`, `PromptResponseContext`, `ToLspPosition`
## What stays in `language`
- `Buffer`, `BufferSnapshot`, `SyntaxMap`, `Outline`, `DiagnosticSet`,
`LanguageScope`
- `LspAdapter`, `CachedLspAdapter`, `LspAdapterDelegate` (reference
`Arc<Language>` and `WorktreeId`)
- `ToolchainLister`, `LanguageToolchainStore` (reference `task` and
`settings` types)
- `ManifestQuery`, `ManifestProvider`, `ManifestDelegate` (reference
`WorktreeId`)
- Parser/query cursor pools, `PLAIN_TEXT`, point conversion functions
## What the `grammars` crate provides
- Embedded `.scm` query files and `config.toml` files for all built-in
languages (via `rust_embed`)
- `load_queries(name)`, `load_config(name)`,
`load_config_for_feature(name, grammars_loaded)`, and `get_file(path)`
functions
- `native_grammars()` for tree-sitter grammar registration (behind
`load-grammars` feature)
## Pre-cleanup (also in this PR)
- Removed unused `Option<&Buffer>` from
`LspAdapter::process_diagnostics`
- Removed unused `&App` from `LspAdapter::retain_old_diagnostic`
- Removed `fs: &dyn Fs` from `ToolchainLister` trait methods
(`PythonToolchainProvider` captures `fs` at construction time instead)
- Moved `Diagnostic`/`DiagnosticSourceKind` out of `buffer.rs` into
their own module
## Backward compatibility
The `language` crate re-exports everything from `language_core`, so
existing `use language::Grammar` (etc.) continues to work unchanged. The
only downstream change required is importing `CodeLabelExt` where
`.fallback_for_completion()` is called on the now-foreign `CodeLabel`
type.

Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/45630
Remote host location alone is not enough to distinguish between remote
worktrees: different remote projects open in different windows will have
the same remote host location and _will_ have the same `WorktreeId`.
Thus, require an associated `WorktreeStore` with all
`WorktreeId`-related trust questions, and store those IDs based on the
store key.
Release Notes:
- Fixed worktree trust handling of multiple projects on the same remote
host
Follow-up of https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/44887
Trims the worktree trust mechanism to the actual `worktree`s, so now
"global", workspace-level things like `prettier`, `NodeRuntime`,
`copilot` and global MCP servers are considered as "trusted" a priori.
In the future, a separate mechanism for those will be considered and
added.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/12589
Forces Zed to require user permissions before running any basic
potentially dangerous actions: parsing and synchronizing
`.zed/settings.json`, downloading and spawning any language and MCP
servers (includes `prettier` and `copilot` instances) and all
`NodeRuntime` interactions.
There are more we can add later, among the ideas: DAP downloads on
debugger start, Python virtual environment, etc.
By default, Zed starts in restricted mode and shows a `! Restricted
Mode` in the title bar, no aforementioned actions are executed.
Clicking it or calling `workspace::ToggleWorktreeSecurity` command will
bring a modal to trust worktrees or dismiss the modal:
<img width="1341" height="475" alt="1"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/4fabe63a-6494-42c7-b0ea-606abb1c0c20"
/>
Agent Panel shows a message too:
<img width="644" height="106" alt="2"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0a4554bc-1f1e-455b-b97d-244d7d6a3259"
/>
This works on local, SSH and WSL remote projects, trusted worktrees are
persisted between Zed restarts.
There's a way to clear all persisted trust with
`workspace::ClearTrustedWorktrees`, this will restart Zed.
This mechanism can be turned off with settings:
```jsonc
"session": {
"trust_all_worktrees": true
}
```
in this mode, all worktrees will be trusted by default, allowing all
actions, but no auto trust will be persisted: hence, when the setting is
changed back, auto trusted worktrees will require another trust
confirmation.
This settings switch was added to the onboarding view also.
Release Notes:
- Introduced worktree trust mechanism, can be turned off with
`"session": { "trust_all_worktrees": true }`

This is an in-progress work on changing how task scheduler affects
performance of project search. Instead of relying on tasks being
executed at a discretion of the task scheduler, we want to experiment
with having a set of "agents" that prioritize driving in-progress
project search matches to completion over pushing the whole thing to
completion. This should hopefully significantly improve throughput &
latency of project search.
This PR has been reverted previously in #40831.

- Improved project search performance in local projects.

Adds support for opening and displaying images in remote projects. The
server streams image data to the client in chunks, where the client then
reconstructs the image and displays it. This change includes:
- Adding `image` crate as a dependency for remote_server
- Implementing `ImageStore` for remote access
- Creating proto definitions for image-related messages
- Adding handlers for creating images for peers
- Computing image metadata from bytes instead of reading from disk for
remote images

Release Notes:
- Fix duplicate process entries in WSL debug attach list
Using `shlex` unconditionally is dangerous as it assumes the underlying
shell is POSIX which is not the case for PowerShell, CMD, or Nushell.
Therefore, whenever we want to quote the args we should utilise our
helper `util:🐚:ShellKind::try_quote` which takes into account
which shell is being used to actually exec/spawn the invocation.

This PR adds the ability to control the capabilities granted to
extensions by the extension host via the new
`granted_extension_capabilities` setting.
This setting is a list of the capabilities granted to any extension
running in Zed.
The currently available capabilities are:
- `process:exec` - Grants extensions the ability to invoke commands
using
[`zed_extension_api::process::Command`](https://docs.rs/zed_extension_api/latest/zed_extension_api/process/struct.Command.html)
- `download_file` - Grants extensions the ability to download files
using
[`zed_extension_api::download_file`](https://docs.rs/zed_extension_api/latest/zed_extension_api/fn.download_file.html)
- `npm:install` - Grants extensions the ability to install npm packages
using
[`zed_extension_api::npm_install_package`](https://docs.rs/zed_extension_api/latest/zed_extension_api/fn.npm_install_package.html)
Each of these capabilities has parameters that can be used to customize
the permissions.
For instance, to only allow downloads from GitHub, the `download_file`
capability can specify an allowed `host`:
```json
[
{ "kind": "download_file", "host": "github.com", "path": ["**"] }
]
```
The same capability can also be granted multiple times with different
parameters to build up an allowlist:
```json
[
{ "kind": "download_file", "host": "github.com", "path": ["**"] },
{ "kind": "download_file", "host": "gitlab.com", "path": ["**"] }
]
```
When an extension is not granted a capability, the associated extension
APIs protected by that capability will fail.
For instance, trying to use `zed_extension_api::download_file` when the
`download_file` capability is not granted will result in an error that
will be surfaced by the extension:
```
Language server phpactor:
from extension "PHP" version 0.4.3: failed to download file: capability for download_file https://github.com/phpactor/phpactor/releases/download/2025.07.25.0/phpactor.phar is not granted by the extension host
```
Release Notes:
- Added a `granted_extension_capabilities` setting to control the
capabilities granted to extensions.
Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/38690Closes#37353
### Background
On Windows, paths are normally separated by `\`, unlike mac and linux
where they are separated by `/`. When editing code in a project that
uses a different path style than your local system (e.g. remoting from
Windows to Linux, using WSL, and collaboration between windows and unix
users), the correct separator for a path may differ from the "native"
separator.
Previously, to work around this, Zed converted paths' separators in
numerous places. This was applied to both absolute and relative paths,
leading to incorrect conversions in some cases.
### Solution
Many code paths in Zed use paths that are *relative* to either a
worktree root or a git repository. This PR introduces a dedicated type
for these paths called `RelPath`, which stores the path in the same way
regardless of host platform, and offers `Path`-like manipulation APIs.
RelPath supports *displaying* the path using either separator, so that
we can display paths in a style that is determined at runtime based on
the current project.
The representation of absolute paths is left untouched, for now.
Absolute paths are different from relative paths because (except in
contexts where we know that the path refers to the local filesystem)
they should generally be treated as opaque strings. Currently we use a
mix of types for these paths (std::path::Path, String, SanitizedPath).

In local projects, initialize the list of agents in the agent server
store immediately. Previously we were initializing the list only after a
delay, in an attempt to avoid sending the `ExternalAgentsUpdated`
message to the downstream client (if any) before its handlers were
initialized. But we already have a separate codepath for that situation,
in the `AgentServerStore::shared`, and we can insert the delay in that
place instead.
Release Notes:
- acp: Fixed a bug where starting an external agent thread soon after
Zed starts up would show a "not registered" error.

Closes#37520
This change makes the attach modal load processes from the remote server
when connecting via SSH, rather than showing local processes from the
client machine.
This works by using the new GetProcessesRequest RPC message to allow
downstream clients to get the correct processes to display. It also only
works with downstream ssh clients because the message handler is only
registered on headless projects.
Release Notes:
- debugger: Fix bug where SSH attach modal showed local processes
instead of processes from the server
Follow-up https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/37083
Noisy RPC LSP logs were functioning this way already, but to keep Collab
loaded even less, do not send any kind of logs to the client if the
client has a corresponding log tab not opened.
This change is pretty raw and does not fully cover scenarious with
multiple clients: if one client has a log tab open and another opens tab
with another kind of log, the 2nd kind of logs will be streamed only.
Also, it should be possible to forward the host logs to the client on
enabling — that is not done to keep the change smaller.
Release Notes:
- N/A
