Editor

The Editor pane today is a file tree with breadcrumb. Real text editing is on the roadmap via CodeEdit integration.

What it does today

  • Browse the workspace folder.
  • Click a file to open it in the system default editor (Xcode, VS Code, etc., depending on the file type).
  • Breadcrumb at the top shows the current selection path with click-to-jump.

What it doesn't do (yet)

  • Inline text editing inside the pane.
  • Syntax highlighting.
  • Save / autosave.
  • Diff / git decoration.

Workflow today

The Prompt workspace already has Terminal + Tasks + Agent. The Editor pane is the file-system index — a quick navigator. For actual edits, click through to your editor of choice (Loom doesn't fight you here) or have the agent issue the edits.

CodeEdit integration

CodeEdit is a Swift-native editor that wraps a real NSTextView-based code editing surface. Pulling it in gives Loom:

  • In-pane editing with syntax highlighting.
  • Save inside the workspace.
  • A consistent design language (Loom and CodeEdit share macOS-native control idioms).

The integration is staged for a future minor version. Track it in the GitHub repo's issues.
