Preserve terminal spinners in thread titles (#57983)
Summary:

- Preserve spinner/logo prefixes from live terminal titles when terminal
threads have custom titles.
- Store raw terminal titles and custom user titles separately,
recomposing display titles on demand.
- Keep spinner prefixes out of the title editor while preserving
sidebar/search display behavior.

Tests:

- cargo test -p agent_ui
test_terminal_custom_title_recomposes_with_live_spinner -- --nocapture
- cargo test -p agent_ui
test_terminal_title_editor_excludes_spinner_prefix -- --nocapture
- cargo test -p sidebar
test_agent_panel_terminals_appear_in_sidebar_and_search -- --nocapture

Closes AI-304

Release Notes:

- Fixed terminal thread titles to preserve animated spinner and logo
prefixes after renaming.

Licensing

Zed source code is licensed primarily under GPL-3.0-or-later, with Apache-2.0 components where marked.

License information for third party dependencies must be correctly provided for CI to pass.

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.

Sponsorship

Zed is developed by Zed Industries, Inc., a for-profit company.

If youd like to financially support the project, you can do so via GitHub Sponsors. Sponsorships go directly to Zed Industries and are used as general company revenue. There are no perks or entitlements associated with sponsorship.
