adapters/python: set `console = "integratedTerminal"` so debugpy routes stdout/stderr via RunInTerminalRequest into dapui's Console pane. Under the default (internalConsole), debugpy emits DAP OutputEvents that nvim-dap forwards to the REPL buffer — which turbo-debug's layout deliberately omits, so print() output vanished.
breakpoints: sweep already-loaded buffers with load_breakpoints() right after sign_define. plugin/turbo-debug.lua defers setup via vim.schedule so deps register first, which means BufReadPost has already fired for any file opened on the command line — persistent-breakpoints' autocmd misses it. The one-shot sweep is idempotent; placing it after sign_define avoids a first-paint flicker of dap's default 'B' sign.
Major UI rework and stability release. Two floating chrome bars replace the
old single toolbar, every resize/tabline-toggle edge case is handled, and
every highlight now derives from the user's colorscheme.
BREAKING CHANGES
- `quit_exits_mode` option removed — `q` is now context-aware: if a DAP
session is running, `q` terminates the session but keeps debug mode
active so you can read the Console / inspect post-mortem state. Press
`q` again to exit debug mode.
- `help_on_enter` default is now `false` (was `true`). Control bar always
shows `(?) help`, so the auto-popup is no longer needed.
- Default layout changed: sidebar is Call Stack → Scopes → Watches →
Breakpoints (all 25%). REPL is no longer in the default layout — press
`E` during debug mode to open it as a floating window.
- Console pane sizing: bottom Console is `max(8 rows, 20% of editor
lines)` (previously hardcoded). Configurable via `console_height`.
ADDED
- Two-bar floating chrome, independent of any statusline plugin:
status bar (top, 2 rows, brand + live dap.status text + state chip),
control bar (bottom, 2 rows, clickable flow buttons + `(?) help`
right-anchored). Italic qualifiers on step controls auto-drop at
narrow widths.
- Keymap-aware control bar — legend reflects user's actual remapped
keys; disabled actions are omitted entirely.
- IP arrow markers on stopped lines: 👉 gutter sign (priority 500) +
👈 REASON virtual text at EOL.
- Optional debug-mode colorscheme via `colorscheme` option.
- Theme-agnostic separator color (derives from WinBar.fg); global
WinSeparator override during debug mode for consistent edge color.
- `clear_console_on_start` (default true) — wipe Console scrollback on
session start while preserving the terminal channel.
- `collapsed_scopes` (default {"Registers"}) — auto-collapse noisy
scopes that adapters don't flag expensive.
- `max_value_width` (default 2000) — per-line truncation for values in
Scopes/Watches.
- `console_refresh_ms` (default 50) — trailing-edge Console repaint
throttle.
- `sidebar` option — "left" (default) or "right".
- `active_window_highlight` (default true) — dim inactive dapui pane
borders.
- `W` and `K` now work in visual mode (operate on the selection).
- Source window focused before DAP jumps on event_stopped.
CHANGED
- Bars are real splits (not overlapping floats).
- pin_dapui_sizes() only re-pins on external geometry changes (tabline
toggle); user manual pane drags survive.
- ensure_dapui() runs ONCE per plugin lifetime, avoiding "Debug adapter
didn't respond" timeouts on toggle.
- Bars clamp to exactly 2 rows on every resize (no stray EOB `~`).
- setup() is fully idempotent; plugin/turbo-debug.lua's deferred
auto-setup yields to explicit user setup({...}).
- Copyright holder: Stephen Waits <steve@waits.net>.
FIXED
- Bars recreate if killed by shrink-below-minimum resize or tabline
appear/disappear.
- Inherited winbar cleared on bar windows (no phantom separator rows).
- Layout re-asserts after `wincmd =`.
- Sidebar proportions stable across re-entry.
- Bar separators bright on both outward edges.
- Deferred dependency loading waits for vim.pack.add to finalize.
INTERNAL
- Extracted 10+ helper functions in mode.lua; deduped ~25 call sites.
- Data-driven sign definitions and Python interpreter probing.
- Dead code removed: unused reposition_bars, vestigial sbar_zones/
handle_sbar_click.
- Added regression tests: test_render_bars, test_highlights_cs,
test_helpers.
- stylua.toml added; all Lua code formatted.

Two related bugs surfaced when the user tried adding `setup({...})` to
their init.lua alongside our auto-setup:
1. **`inmemory.bps = nil` crash.** When a user's `init.lua` does
`vim.pack.add(..., turbo-debug)` and then calls `setup({...})`
synchronously right after, the nested `vim.pack.add` calls inside
our own `plugin/turbo-debug.lua` (for dap/dapui/persistent-
breakpoints) are DEFERRED by nvim's pack module — so the user's
follow-up `require('persistent-breakpoints')` throws "module not
found". On the previous `initialized = true` guard, the error set
the flag but left setup half-complete; any later call short-
circuited and `inmemory.bps` stayed `nil`, exploding the first
breakpoint toggle (`api.lua:15: attempt to index field 'bps'`).
2. **Colorscheme override ignored.** Same root cause: user's
`setup({ colorscheme = "nightfox" })` errored before reaching
`config.merge`, so `config.opts.colorscheme` stayed `nil` and
`M.enter` never switched themes.
Three changes that together fix both:
- **`init.lua` `setup()` self-defers** when `require('persistent-
breakpoints')` fails, `vim.schedule`s itself once deps can load.
- **`plugin/turbo-debug.lua` auto-setup is now `vim.schedule`d** and
skips entirely if the user's explicit `setup({...})` already ran
(tracked via `M._setup_called`) — no more stomping user opts with
a second `config.merge(nil)`.
- **`breakpoints.setup` is now fully idempotent**: dropped the
`initialized` flag, since every call inside it
(`persistent-breakpoints.setup`, `sign_define`, `nvim_set_hl`,
`vim.keymap.set`) is safe to re-run.
Addresses live-feedback issues that persisted after v3:
- Control bar now uses buffer content + extmarks instead of winbar —
winbar doesn't render in minimal-style floats, which is why the bar
was empty. Two rows: ─ separator on top, state chip + controls below.
Click dispatch via buffer-local <LeftMouse> keymap + cursor-column
lookup against a zones table.
- Bar auto-refreshes on every dap event (initialized/stopped/continued/
terminated/exited) so the READY/RUNNING/PAUSED chip and dap.status()
text stay live.
- Colorful emoji throughout for instant recognition:
Signs: 🔴 BP, 🟡 conditional, ⭕ rejected, 👉 stopped, 📝 logpoint
Titles: 🔎 Scopes, 👁️ Watches, 📚 Call Stack, 🔴 Breakpoints,
💻 Console, 💬 REPL
Badge: 🐛 DEBUG · <file>
Controls: ▶️⏭️⬇️⬆️🔄🛑❌
- Modal key install no longer skips buffers that already have entries —
every BufEnter/FileType force-reinstalls the keymaps so dapui's own
render pass can't leave them in a broken state.
- IP sign leak fixed: clear_ip() now unplaces lingering DapStopped signs
via sign_getplaced + sign_unplace, so restart no longer leaves a stale
👉 in the gutter of the previously-paused line.
- IP reason text (STEP/BREAKPOINT/EXCEPTION) now uses bold + reverse for
an inverted-color badge that really demands attention.
- dapui.expand_lines = false — this was spawning a cursor-pinned float
when a line was wider than its pane, causing the "hover text bleeds
across the screen" bug. With wrap+breakindent inside the pane, the
hover-float is redundant and destructive.
- Control-bar buffer is marked filetype=TurboDebugBar and explicitly
skipped by the modal key installer, so clicking a button doesn't
accidentally fire modal actions.

Major v3 fixes driven by live-debugging feedback:
- Control bar: replace vim.o.statusline override (lualine fights it) with
a 1-row floating window pinned above the statusline. Shows state chip
(READY/RUNNING/PAUSED) + seven clickable Codicon controls + dap.status().
Survives resize via VimResized autocmd. Fully independent of lualine.
- Console refresh: trailing-edge throttle at config.console_refresh_ms
(default 50ms = 20 Hz ceiling). Targets console windows via nvim_win_call
+ redraw! to avoid screen-cache miss. Chatty programs can't DOS the editor.
- Modal keys in dapui panes: install synchronously on FileType (drop inner
vim.schedule); all modal keys get nowait=true (was continue-only) so
single-key presses aren't swallowed by <leader>d* prefix matching.
- Wrap in dapui panes: wrap=true + breakindent + showbreak=" ↳ " so long
register values stay visible inside the pane without bleeding into the
source window. Safety valve at config.max_value_width (default 2000,
set 0 to disable) truncates only pathological multi-KB dumps with "…".
- Smart q: context-aware terminate. If a session is running, q calls
dap.terminate() and stays in debug mode (so user can read the console
postmortem). If no session, q exits debug mode. Removes quit_exits_mode.
- Icons: full Nerd Font Codicon set for signs, control bar buttons, pane
titles, and debug badge. 👈 emoji in the paused-line vtext pairs with
👉 in the gutter — fingers literally point at the paused line from both
sides.
