Add support for scaling the Markdown preview's body text and headings
with `cmd-=` / `cmd--` / `cmd-0`. Previously these shortcuts only
resized code blocks because the preview's body used `ui_font_size` and
headings used a rem-based scale anchored to it, while the keybindings
only mutated `BufferFontSize`.
The preview's scroll subtree is now wrapped in
`WithRemSize(buffer_font_size)`, so `1rem` resolves to the buffer font
size inside the preview. Body text, headings
(`text_3xl`/`text_2xl`/...), and rem-based spacing all scale together.
The outer focus root and scrollbar remain at the UI font size.

# Objective
The current behavior of the git panel is that when you click a file it
will open the multi-buffer view that shows all files with changes. If
you use CMD+Click or CTRL+Click, it will open the solo-file experience
where you only see the diff of the file you have selected. But, there is
no way to customize this behavior.
Related to:
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/56152#issuecomment-4641971669
## Solution
This MR adds a setting that allows you to customize the default click
behavior. The alternate behavior will always be accessible via CMD+Click
or CTRL+Click.

## Summary
This updates the Git Panel view controls so the panel can independently
model:
- whether entries are shown as a list or tree
- whether flat entries are sorted by path or name
- whether entries are grouped by status or shown as one combined set
It also keeps the Project Diff order consistent with the Git Panel,
including tree ordering, status grouping, and flat name/path sorting.
## Why This Is Useful
The previous sort_by_path boolean overloaded two separate ideas: sorting
and grouping. That made it hard to represent the view users actually
wanted, especially a single tree where tracked and untracked files are
not split into separate sections.
This change replaces that boolean with explicit enum settings:
- git_panel.sort_by: path or name
- git_panel.group_by: none or status
That keeps the settings mutually exclusive, easier to extend, and closer
to the UI model.
## Implementation Notes
- Adds a dedicated Git Panel View Options menu using the sliders icon.
- Moves view, sort, and group controls out of the overflow actions menu.
- Disables sort options in tree view because tree order is folder-first
rather than pure path/name sorting.
- Removes the Tracked heading when grouping is disabled.
- Keeps Git Panel tree expansion state when switching view options.
- Recomputes Project Diff sort prefixes from tree_view, sort_by, and
group_by so diff cards follow the same top-to-bottom order as the Git
Panel.
- Preserves Project Diff open/closed file state across view option
changes by carrying fold state by repo path instead of by synthetic sort
key.
- Updates settings UI renderers and docs for the new enum settings.
## Testing
- [x] cargo fmt --package git_ui --package settings_ui
- [x] cargo check -p git_ui
- [x] Verified settings UI enum dropdown rendering for Git Panel
sort/group settings

This PR introduces a markdown preview max-width setting in which we
allow to limit by a given pixel number how wide the content within the
preview tab should go. Before this, content would render edge-to-edge
and if you're reading long markdown docs with no split panes, having it
be full width like that was a horrible reading experience.
So, right now, you can control that through the
`zed://settings/markdown_preview.max_width` setting.

Release Notes:
- Added setting to control max-width of content within the markdown
preview.
## Summary
- Adds an `agent.terminal_init_command` setting for Terminal Threads.
- Runs the configured command automatically when creating a new Terminal
Thread, while skipping restored terminal threads.
- Documents the setting and exposes it in the AI settings page.
Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/58697
Closes AI-337
Release Notes:
- Added a setting to automatically run a command when opening a new
terminal thread in the agent panel.

Adds support for Anthropic's Claude Fable 5 model when using your own
Anthropic API key. Because Fable 5 cannot be offered under Zero Data
Retention (Anthropic retains inference logs for 30 days), this gates the
model behind an explicit data-retention consent: a new
telemetry.anthropic_retention setting (default off, surfaced in the
Privacy section of the settings UI), and a hard, non-retryable check in
the cloud completion path that raises a typed error when consent is
missing.
When Fable 5 declines a request, it transparently falls back to Claude
Opus 4.8 (matching Anthropic's server-side behavior), and the agent
panel shows a callout for the consent error with "Switch to Opus 4.8" /
"Accept" actions that resume the failed turn so the user's message
continues without retyping.
Closes AI-382
Release Notes:
- Add Claude Fable 5 to Anthropic BYOK

Adds two new agent settings nested under `auto_compact`, `enabled` and
`threshold`, which control automatic compaction of the agent's context
window as part of the handoff feature. Both surface in the settings UI
under Agent Configuration, gated behind the `handoff` feature flag so
they only appear for users on that flag.
The `threshold` accepts three forms: a percentage string ending in `%`
(e.g. `"80%"` or `"95.5%"`) measured against the model's context window,
a positive integer to compact after that many tokens have been used, or
a negative integer to compact once that many tokens remain in the
window. `0` and bare non-integer numbers are rejected. It deserializes
from either a JSON string or integer and resolves to a typed enum,
falling back to the `"80%"` default (with a logged warning) when the
configured value is invalid. In the settings UI the threshold is a
free-form text field so all three forms can be entered.

Adds two built-in agent tools, behind the staff-only
`create-thread-tool` feature flag, that let the agent spawn independent
sibling threads:
- **`create_thread`** creates a new thread with a title and initial
prompt. It runs on the user's behalf and shows up in the agent sidebar
like a thread the user started themselves, but it runs in the background
— the active thread is never interrupted — and it does **not** report
results back to the caller. (Use `spawn_agent` when you want the
results.)
- **`list_agents_and_models`** enumerates the configured agents and, for
the native agent, the available models, so the agent can pick a
cheaper/faster model for bulk work. The motivating stress test was
"spawn 100 threads that each write a haiku, using Haiku instead of
Opus."
By default the sibling shares the parent's project and worktree. If
`use_new_worktree` is set, `create_thread` instead opens a new
background workspace backed by fresh linked git worktrees of the
project's repos — the same flow you get from the worktree picker's
"Create worktree" — and starts the thread there. The new workspace opens
as a background tab so it doesn't pull you away from what you're doing.
A few notes on the design:
- The `agent` crate can't depend on the UI, so there's a
`SiblingThreadHost` trait that `agent_ui::AgentPanel` implements and
installs on the `NativeAgent`. Tool calls in a native-agent thread route
through it.
- Sibling threads go through the same `create_agent_thread` →
`ConversationView` path as the user-facing "new thread" action, so
eviction, persistence, and sidebar rendering match user-created threads.
- An explicit `agent`/`model` override doesn't clobber the panel's
selected agent or the last-used-agent preference — those are snapshotted
and restored around the call.
- The worktree path reuses the existing "Create worktree" machinery
rather than reimplementing it; the agent flow just opens the new
workspace in the background instead of activating it.
A couple of things I left out or want to call out:
- There's no tool to operate on an already-created sibling by session
id. The success payload deliberately omits it, since the session is
populated asynchronously and nothing consumes it yet.
- When a project has multiple worktrees that are linked worktrees of the
*same* underlying repo, they collapse into a single new worktree (they
resolve to the same target path). The tool returns a warning in that
case rather than failing — and this also fixes a latent collision the
manual "Create worktree" flow would hit in the same situation.

Adds option to always search/scan symlinks for more thorough coverage of
#41887 issue
This is a significant rewrite and more thoroughly reviewed and tested
version of the old PR here:
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/46344
The "never" option was removed from the old PR, since "expanded" is now
the default. Perhaps "never" can be added as an option later if there's
demand for it. Adding that option may resolve#48890 for instance.

With long lines or a small viewport, the stage/restore buttons often
cover code.
Adds a setting to hide the buttons altogether. Defaults to showing them.
Release Notes:
- Added: Setting to hide Git Stage/Restore buttons
Treat `.agents/skills/` (project-local) and `~/.agents/skills/` (global)
as **sensitive paths**, on par with `.zed/` and the global config
directory. The agent's built-in editing tools (`edit_file`,
`write_file`, `create_directory`, `delete_path`, `move_path`,
`copy_path`) now require explicit user authorization before modifying
anything inside those paths, because the contents of skill files control
agent behavior.
This protection is worth landing on its own, ahead of Zed adding its own
skills support: other agents (e.g. Claude Code) already write skill
files into these locations, so a Zed installation may already have
skills on disk that should not be silently editable by the agent.
Also tightens the **pre-existing `.zed/` check** to compare path
components case-insensitively. macOS and Windows use case-insensitive
filesystems by default, so without this fix a malicious settings author
could bypass the local-settings classifier with `.ZED/settings.json`
(the canonicalized inode would match, but the path-component comparison
would miss it). The new `.agents/skills/` check has the same hazard and
now shares a single `component_matches_ignore_ascii_case` helper with
the `.zed/` check.
Introduces the `agent_skills` crate, scoped for now to just the path
constants and helpers (`global_skills_dir`,
`project_skills_relative_path`, `SKILL_FILE_NAME`) so the
tool-permission machinery can recognize the agent skills tree without
depending on a skill discovery / parsing / loading layer. Those will
land in follow-up PRs.
Closes AI-217
Release Notes:
- Agent: Require user confirmation before letting tools modify files
inside `.agents/skills/` (per-project) or `~/.agents/skills/` (global),
so skills installed by any agent are protected from unsolicited edits

Release Notes:
- Added a setting
[vim.show_edit_predictions_in_normal_mode](zed://settings/vim.show_edit_predictions_in_normal_mode)
to control whether edit predictions are shown in normal mode.
Splits the edit tool into two separate tools `write_file` (previously
`mode = write`), and `edit_file` (previously `mode = edit`).
This makes the JSON schema for the `edit_tool` much simpler. We've seen
models (especially older ones) struggle with providing `mode = edit +
edits` and `mode = write + content` fields. This seems to improve eval
scores for Sonnet 4.6 slightly.
Also added two unit evals to ensure that the model uses the tool to
create new/override existing files

Adds 4 (technically 5) new tools to the zed agent, corresponding to LSP
actions:
- `find_references`
- `goto_definition`
- `rename_symbol`
- `get_code_actions` and `apply_code_actions`
Notes:
- `rename_symbol` skips doing a `prepare_rename`. If there is nothing to
rename at the position, it will forward the error to the agent
- The code action tools are stateful. The state is stored in the
`get_code_actions` tool itself as a `PendingCodeActions`. It is not
passed into/out of subagents. Calling `apply_code_actions` without
calling `get_code_actions` first is an error, but I've never seen an
agent do this
Symbols are identified by:
- file name
- line number
- symbol
If there is no substring match on that line for the symbol text, it is
an error. If there are multiple, it chooses the first. This may not be
great if you have a line like: `fn convert(x: foo::Something) ->
bar::Something` - the second `Something` is a different symbol, but is
inacessible to these tools. Probably fine for now, but we can look into
improving

- Added: New tools for the Zed Agent for interacting with language
servers

Instead of manually handing hiding the cursor on keyboard input at the
editor level, GPUI will now take care of it.
This makes it significantly easier to handle the edge cases, and allows
delegating the cursor restoration to the platform itself in the macOS
case. On Linux and Windows, we still have to restore the cursor on
movement ourselves, but this now happens at the platform-specific level.
Bugs fixed by this change:
- No cursor when "Unsaved edits" prompt appears
- Cursor disappears when clicking a panel button if it contains a search
bar (e.g. collab panel)
### Setting rename
The `hide_mouse` setting value `"on_typing_and_movement"` has been
renamed to `"on_typing_and_action"` to better reflect what it actually
does — it hides the cursor when a keystroke resolves to an action (e.g.
cursor movement, deletion). Existing settings are migrated
automatically.
### Tested platforms
- [x] macOS
- [x] Wayland
- [x] X11
- [x] Windows
- [x] Web

Release Notes:

These changes attempt to expand on the work introduced by
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/54778 by introducing a new
`GoToDefinitionScrollStrategy::Preserve` variant that attempts to keep
the cursor at the same vertical offset within the viewport when
navigating to a definition.
Most of the machinery for this was already in place. To support cases
where the user's scroll position isn't snapped to an exact display row,
for example, after scrolling with the mmouse, `Autoscroll::TopRelative`
and `Autoscroll::BottomRelative` were updated from `usize` to
`ScrollOffset`, allowing fractional offsets.
When the cursor is offscreen at the moment the `editor: go to
definition` action is invoked, `Preserve` falls back to
`Autoscroll::center`, matching the existing default for
`go_to_definition_scroll_strategy`. This avoids attempting to preserve
an offset where the cursor isn't visible which would lead to the cursor
being offscreen when jumping to the definition.
Documentation has also been updated to reflect this new strategy value.

I'll read with joy and popcorn through that root cause analysis.
It makes literally zero sense what happened here, but for some completly
bonkers reason GitHub completely messed up the merge queue with
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/54632.
I have no idea how it happened. It makes literally zero sense. A PR
going into the merge queue should have the same LoC when getting out of
it. GitHub obviously does not check this. GitHub causes extra work with
a feature that is supposed to save time.

Needs https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/54635 for the profile
overrides added into default settings json to work.
Part of https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/48968
Another part of the fix related seems to be
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/45669 ?
Using the steps from the issue and profiling on macOs had shown that Zed
has 2 memory "leaks" in play when a certain file is being rewritten a
lot of times.
* First, the thread profiler registers a lot of tasks' data and fills
its buffer to the limit:
<img width="3456" height="2158" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f183312d-4389-4072-8915-d54e60419b08"
/>
* Second, if the buffer gets open, the undo history fragments start to
creep up infinitely:
<img width="3456" height="2158" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/61a2b66b-81fd-4973-9c3c-c339f886d9b2"

The PR aims to solve the first issue by disabling the profiling by
default, yet leaving the way to turn in on quickly with settings.
The memory usage profiling shows that the memory usage is now
dynamically affected by the new setting:

/>
While the test directory being thrashed with the script from the issue,
* first, Zed starts with the profiling disabled
* then gets the profiling enabled which results in the memory growth
close to 1 minute mark of the screenshot
* last, the profiling gets disabled again, releasing all the memory
accumulated
Release Notes:
- Improved Zed's default memory usage
This PR brings back the button to filter remote branches when accessing
the title bar's branch picker with the mouse. It was unintentionally
removed when we introduced the new worktree picker.

Closes#48394
Moves the data collection preference for Zed's Edit Predictions out of
the internal KV store and into `settings.json` as a proper
`allow_data_collection` setting under `edit_predictions`.
**Migration:** Existing users' choices are preserved. When
`allow_data_collection` is absent from `settings.json`, the resolved
value falls back to the legacy KV entry
(`zed_predict_data_collection_choice`). Once the user toggles the
setting or sets it explicitly, the new setting takes precedence and the
KV entry is ignored.
**Bug fixed:** The original implementation of `toggle_data_collection`
read the raw (unresolved) settings content to determine the current
state. When `allow_data_collection` was absent from `settings.json` but
the KV store held `"true"`, the raw read returned `None → false`,
causing the first toggle click to write `Some(true)` (re-enabling)
instead of `Some(false)` (disabling). The fix reads the resolved
`is_data_collection_enabled()` value before entering the
`update_settings_file` closure.
## Manual testing
**Setting takes effect:**
1. Open settings (`cmd+,`) and add `"allow_data_collection": true` under
`edit_predictions`. Save.
2. Open a file — the data collection indicator in the editor should
reflect the enabled state.
3. Flip to `false` and confirm it updates.
**Toggle correctly disables from KV-enabled state (migration bug fix):**
1. Remove `allow_data_collection` from `settings.json`.
2. Write the legacy KV entry directly:
```
sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\ Support/Zed/db/0-dev/db.sqlite \
"INSERT OR REPLACE INTO kv_store(key,value)
VALUES('zed_predict_data_collection_choice','true');"
```
3. Restart Zed. The data collection toggle should show as **enabled**
(reading from KV store).
4. Click the toggle once to disable. `allow_data_collection` should
appear as `false` in `settings.json` — not `true`, which was the pre-fix
behaviour.
**Upsell modal still appears for new users:**
1. Clear both KV keys and restart:
```
sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\ Support/Zed/db/0-dev/db.sqlite \
"DELETE FROM kv_store WHERE key IN
('zed_predict_data_collection_choice','dismissed-edit-predict-upsell');"
```
2. Open any file so the status bar is visible.
3. Click the edit prediction button (bottom-right status bar) — it
should have a muted dot indicator.
4. The upsell modal should appear. Dismissing it should prevent it from
reappearing.
## Release Notes:
- `allow_data_collection` for Zed's Edit Predictions can now be set
explicitly in `settings.json` under `edit_predictions`. Existing
preferences stored in the internal database are preserved as a fallback.

Closes#49581
Adds a `line_ending` language setting that controls how line endings are
handled for new files and during format/save:
- `detect` (default) — detects existing line endings; new files use the
platform default
- `prefer_lf` / `prefer_crlf` — sets LF or CRLF for new files and files
with no existing convention, while preserving existing files
- `enforce_lf` / `enforce_crlf` — normalizes all line endings to LF or
CRLF on every format/save
The setting can be configured globally, per-language, or via
`.editorconfig`'s `end_of_line` property (which maps to `enforce_lf` /
`enforce_crlf`).
Release Notes:
- Added `line_ending` setting to control how line endings are handled
for new files and normalized on save.
- Added support for `.editorconfig` `end_of_line` property to enforce
line endings.

The `project_name` worktree setting was added in #36713 to let users
override the name shown in the window title. Its description ("The
displayed name of this project. If left empty, the root directory name
will be displayed.") suggests broader coverage, and #46440 reports the
reasonable expectation that it should also apply in the project
switcher. In practice the setting has only ever affected
`Workspace::update_window_title`, so everywhere else (recent projects,
the multi-worktree pane, ...) keeps falling back to the worktree root
name.
Rather than plumb the setting through each of those surfaces, I'm
removing it. Having a project-level setting control how your editor
displays the project has downsides. For example it means a checkout can
dictate UI in someone else's Zed. The natural home for a custom display
name is the workspace DB, set from the UI, which is what we should do if
we want this feature back.
If you want this back, the path forward is to store the display name in
`WorkspaceDb`, expose a UI affordance to edit it, and read it from
`update_window_title`, `recent_projects::get_recent_projects` /
`get_open_folders`, and any other places that currently derive a display
name from the worktree root.
Closes#46440
Release Notes:
- Removed the `project_name` project setting. It only ever affected the
OS window title, and the expectation that it would show up in the
project switcher and elsewhere is better served by a future UI-driven,
per-workspace setting stored locally.
Follow up to https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/52730.
This PR adds a boolean setting `limit_content_width` in the Agent Panel
settings that allows turning off the content max-width entirely, which
was added for better readability. We had a handful of requests for it,
so it feels fair.
<img width="500" alt="Screenshot 2026-04-20 at 8 57@2x"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/d2540b35-3fa8-4424-895d-dc499ac4839c"
/>
Release Notes:
- Agent: Added a new `limit_content_width` setting in the agent panel
that allows turning off the content max-width limit.
This PR makes Zed only have one worktree picker, as opposed to a flavor
of it in the title bar and another in the agent panel. It then moves it
to the title bar, making it always present, so that its trigger is
separate from the branch picker (which now contains only two views:
branches and stashes). For the worktree picker, I'm mostly favoring the
behavior we've introduced in the agent-panel-flavored version.
It also updates the title bar settings migration to use the JSON
`migrate_settings` helper instead of a shallow Tree-sitter rewrite, so
old `show_branch_icon = true` values are promoted to
`show_branch_status_icon = true` across root, platform, release-channel,
and profile settings scopes.
- [x] Move worktree creation logic to the `git_ui` crate to make this
more generic and less agent-specific
- [x] Double-check the remote use case and ensure nothing broke there
- [x] Improve the UX for the detached HEAD state; better invite people
to create a branch
- [x] Migrate `show_branch_icon = true` to `show_branch_status_icon =
true` across nested settings scopes
Suggested .rules additions
When migrating renamed settings keys that can appear in platform
overrides, release-channel overrides, or profiles, prefer the JSON
`migrations::migrate_settings` helper over shallow Tree-sitter key
rewrites unless tests explicitly cover every nested scope that can
contain the key.
Release Notes:
- Improved migration of the title bar branch status icon setting.

We had an internal report of soft wrap not working in git panel's commit
editor. Given the following settings:
```json
{
"languages": {
"Git Commit": {
"preferred_line_length": 80,
"soft_wrap": "preferred_line_length",
},
},
}
```
We would not soft-wrap in narrow viewports. As it turned out, the
problem was that we were always prefering a `preferred_line_length` as
our soft wrap boundary over the actual width of the editor.

Release Notes:
- Fixed git commits editor not respecting soft wrap boundaries.
- settings: Removed `"soft_wrap": "preferred_line_length"` in favour of
`"soft_wrap": "bounded"`. Soft wrap now always respects editor width
when it's enabled.
Adds basic bookmark functionality to the editor, allowing users to mark
lines and later navigate between them. This is an MVP and will later be
expanded with a picker, vim marks integration and syntax tree based
bookmark positions. In this MVP bookmarks shift under external edits.
# UI
## Adding/Removing bookmarks
To add a bookmark:
- run the toggle bookmark action
- hold secondary and click in the gutter
- open the context menu by right clicking in the gutter and select add
bookmark To remove a bookmark:
- run the toggle bookmark action
- click on the bookmarks icon in the gutter
- open the context menu by right clicking in the gutter and select
remove bookmark
remove all bookmarks with `workspace: clear bookmarks`
# Implementation
This mirrors the implementation of breakpoints. The rendering of the
gutter was refactored to make place for bookmark icons and buttons:
- Code was extracted to a `Gutter` struct
- Runnables, breakpoints and bookmarks are now collected ahead of
layouting. Just before layouting we remove the items that collide and do
not have priority.
- The `phantom_breakpoint` is replaced by a `gutter_hover_button`
## In depth phantom breakpoint discussion:
This was phantom_breakpoint. It worked as follows:
- A fake breakpoint was added to the list of breakpoints.
- While rendering the breakpoints it a breakpoint turned out to be fake
it would get a different description and look.
- The breakpoint list was edited run_indicators ("play buttons")
rendering to removes the fake breakpoint if it collided.
This would not scale to more functionality. Now we only render
breakpoints, bookmarks and run indicators. Then we render a button if
there is not breakpoint, bookmark or run indicator already present. We
can do so since the rendering of such "gutter indicators" has been
refactored into two phases:
- collect the items.
- render them if no higher priority item collides.
This is far easier and more readable which enabled me to easily take the
phantom_breakpoint system and use it for placing bookmarks as well :)
Note: this was previously merged but it needed a better squashed commit
message. For the actual PR see: 51404. This reverts commit
1c3846e76f.
Release Notes:

Closes#4526
Adds basic bookmark functionality to the editor, allowing users to mark
lines and later navigate between them.
### What's new
**Toggling bookmarks**
Users can toggle a bookmark on the current line(s) via the `editor:
toggle bookmark` action. A bookmark icon appears in the gutter for each
bookmarked line.
**Navigation**
Two new actions, `editor: go to next bookmark` and `editor: go to
previous bookmark`, navigate between bookmarks in the current buffer,
wrapping around at the ends of the buffer.
**Viewing all bookmarks**
`editor: view bookmarks` opens all bookmarks across the project in a
multibuffer, similar to how references and diagnostics are surfaced.
**Clearing bookmarks**
`workspace: clear bookmarks` removes all bookmarks in the current
project.
**Persistence**
Bookmarks are persisted to the workspace database and restored when the
workspace is reopened. They are stored as `(path, row)` pairs and
resolved back to text anchors. Out of range or unresolvable bookmarks
are skipped with a logged warning.
**Gutter rendering**
Bookmark icons are rendered in the gutter using the existing gutter
button layout system, consistent with breakpoints. They are suppressed
on lines that already show a breakpoint or phantom breakpoint indicator.
A new `gutter.bookmarks` setting (defaulting to `true`) controls their
visibility.
### What's left
- [x] Lazily load buffers that have bookmarks
- [x] Clean up test boilerplate
- [ ] Assign default keybindings
- [ ] Compare line of saved bookmarks with current buffer (gray out the
"stale" bookmarks)
### What's next (and nice to haves)
- [ ] Resilience against external edits
- [ ] Save column position with the bookmark
- [ ] Bookmarks attached to syntactic structures?
- [ ] Labeled bookmarks?
---
Release Notes:
- Added bookmarks: toggle bookmarks on lines with `editor: toggle
bookmark`, navigate with `editor: go to next bookmark` / `editor: go to
previous bookmark`, view all bookmarks with `editor: view bookmarks`,
and clear with `workspace: clear bookmarks`. Bookmarks are shown in the
gutter and persisted across sessions.

This fixes a regression where `zed -n .` in a subdirectory of an
already-open
project would redirect to the parent window instead of creating a new
one.
The root cause was that commit b3566fcf55 ("Adjust `zed -n` behavior")
made
`-n` run the worktree matching loop with subdirectory matching enabled,
when
previously `-n` skipped matching entirely.
## Changes
### Bug fix
- **Restore `-n` to always create a new window.** No worktree matching,
no
exceptions. This matches the behavior from when `-n` was first
introduced.
### New `--classic` flag
- Adds a hidden `--classic` CLI flag that explicitly selects the
pre-sidebar
default behavior: new window for directories, reuse existing window for
files already in an open worktree.
- The `cli_default_open_behavior` setting now toggles between `-e` (add
to
sidebar) and `--classic` behavior. When set to `new_window`, the classic
logic is used instead of unconditionally opening a new window.
### Refactor CLI open options
Replaces the old grab-bag of `open_new_workspace: Option<bool>`,
`force_existing_window: bool`, `classic: bool`, and `reuse: bool` with:
- **`cli::CliOpenBehavior` enum** — a single enum on the IPC boundary
with
variants `Default`, `AlwaysNew`, `Add`, `ExistingWindow`, `Classic`, and
`Reuse`.
- **`workspace::WorkspaceMatching` enum** — describes how to match paths
against existing worktrees (`None`, `MatchExact`, `MatchSubdirectory`).
- **`workspace::OpenOptions`** — uses `WorkspaceMatching` plus a simple
`add_dirs_to_sidebar: bool` instead of overlapping boolean flags.
The translation from CLI enum to workspace options happens in
`open_listener.rs`, keeping both layers clean and independent.
