# Objective Ensure that all existing panels have corresponding menu items in the "View" menu. I was onboarding a friend to Zed yesterday that was having a hard time figuring out how to interact with the Agent. Although he did open the "View" menu, I noticed that the Agent panel item was missing from there, making it hard for new users to discover it exists. ## Solution * Add both "Agent Panel" and "Git Panel" entries to the menu items for the "View" app menu. * Update the action used for the "Terminal Panel" menu item from `terminal_panel::ToggleFocus` to `terminal_panel::Toggle` to ensure we display a shortcut for this menu item. * Another valid option would be to update the default keymap to use `terminal_panel::ToggleFocus` instead but that would probably break existing user's expectations that the default shortcut toggles the terminal panel, instead of toggling its focus. * Introduce `zed_actions::git_panel` to be able to extract its `ToggleFocus` action, following the existing pattern. ### Next Steps It's worth noting that, even though there's now an "Agent Panel" item mapped to the `assistant::ToggleFocus` action, its default keybinding is not displayed (at least on macOS), because of the way it's defined as `cmd-?` . Using `cmd-shift-/` instead doesn't work, so we'll likely have to update `MacKeyboardMapper` to allow mapping between shifted and unshifted keys equivalent, that is, when `?` is detected, it is able to determine that, in the user's layout that is the result of `shift-/`. ## Testing Manually tested, screenshots can be seen in the "Showcase" section. ## Self-Review Checklist: - [x] I've reviewed my own diff for quality, security, and reliability - [ ] Unsafe blocks (if any) have justifying comments - [ ] The content adheres to Zed's UI standards ([UX/UI](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist) and [icon](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/crates/icons/README.md) guidelines) - [ ] Tests cover the new/changed behavior - [ ] Performance impact has been considered and is acceptable ## Showcase <details> <summary>Before</summary> <img width="488" height="946" alt="CleanShot 2026-07-03 at 14 24 35@2x" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/58b0497c-2929-4da3-86b6-a2e0ce0c5ca4" /> </details> <details> <summary>After</summary> <img width="524" height="1116" alt="CleanShot 2026-07-03 at 14 24 59@2x" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/8e2c6320-97ad-4620-b595-182f6d0ded81" /> </details> --- Release Notes: - Added "Agent Panel" and "Git Panel" items to the "View" menu
