## Summary
- After finishing an inline tab title edit (via keybind or
double-click), all keyboard input is lost because
`TabTitleEditor.finishEditing()` sets `makeFirstResponder(nil)`, leaving
the window itself as first responder with no path back to the terminal
surface.
- Adds a `tabTitleEditorDidFinishEditing` delegate callback to
`TabTitleEditorDelegate` that fires after every edit (commit or cancel).
- `TerminalWindow` implements it by calling
`makeFirstResponder(focusedSurface)` to restore keyboard focus to the
terminal.

## Testing
- [x] Bind `prompt_tab_title` to a keybind (e.g. `keybind =
cmd+shift+i=prompt_tab_title`)
- [x] Trigger inline tab title edit via keybind, press Enter — verify
keyboard input works immediately
- [x] Trigger inline tab title edit via keybind, press Escape — verify
keyboard input works immediately
- [x] Double-click a tab title, press Enter — verify keyboard input
works immediately
- [x] Double-click a tab title, press Escape — verify keyboard input
works immediately
- [x] Verify Cmd+number tab switching works after all of the above
- [x] Verify split pane focus is correct after editing tab title with
splits open
AI disclosure: Codebase exploration and review via [Claude

After finishing an inline tab title edit (via keybind or double-click),
`TabTitleEditor.finishEditing()` calls `makeFirstResponder(nil)` to
clear focus from the text field, leaving the window itself as first
responder. No code path restores focus to the terminal surface, so all
keyboard input is lost until the user clicks into a pane.
Add a `tabTitleEditorDidFinishEditing` delegate callback that fires
after every edit (commit or cancel). TerminalWindow implements it by
calling `makeFirstResponder(focusedSurface)` to hand focus back to the
terminal.

Add initialContentSize fallback on TerminalViewContainer so
intrinsicContentSize returns the correct value immediately,
without waiting for @FocusedValue to propagate. This removes
the need for the DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter 40ms delay.

This adds two new propeties to make it easy to get the frontmost (main)
window and the focused terminal within a tab. We already had a property
to get the selected tab of a tab group.
Change split, focus, close, activate window, select tab, close tab, and
close window commands to accept their target object as a direct parameter
instead of a named parameter. This produces natural AppleScript syntax:
activate window (window 1)
close tab (tab 1 of window 1)
split (terminal 1) direction right
instead of the awkward redundant form:
activate window window (window 1)
close tab tab (tab 1 of window 1)
split terminal (terminal 1) direction right
The implementation moves command logic from NSScriptCommand subclasses
into responds-to handler methods on ScriptTerminal, ScriptWindow, and
ScriptTab, which is the standard Cocoa Scripting pattern for commands
whose direct parameter is an application class.
Add scripting dictionary commands for activating windows, selecting tabs,
closing tabs, and closing windows.
Implement the corresponding Cocoa AppleScript command handlers and expose
minimal ScriptWindow/ScriptTab helpers needed to resolve live targets.
Verified by building Ghostty and running osascript commands against the
absolute Debug app path to exercise all four new commands.
Add a `surface configuration` record type to the scripting dictionary,
implement `new surface configuration` (with optional copy-from), and allow
`new window` to accept `with configuration`.
Add a `new window` command to the scripting dictionary and wire it to
`NSApplication` so AppleScript can create Ghostty windows.
The command returns a scripting `window` object for the created window,
with a fallback to a direct wrapper when AppKit window ordering has not
yet refreshed in the current run loop.
Add a `name` property (code `pnam`, cocoa key `title`) to the window, tab,
and terminal classes in the scripting definition. This follows the standard
Cocoa scripting convention where `name`/`pnam` maps to the `title` KVC key,
matching what Apple does in CocoaStandard.sdef for NSWindow.
Also fixes the pre-existing terminal `title` property which used a custom
four-char code (`Gttl`) that AppleScript could not resolve directly — only
via `properties of terminal`. All three classes now use the standard `pnam`
code so `name of window 1`, `name of tab 1 of window 1`, and
`name of terminal 1` all work correctly.
Expose terminal surfaces as elements on both ScriptWindow and ScriptTab,
allowing AppleScript to enumerate terminals scoped to a specific window
or tab (e.g. `terminals of window 1`, `terminals of tab 1 of window 1`).
Changes:
- Add `<element type="terminal">` to window and tab classes in Ghostty.sdef
- Add `terminals` computed property and `valueInTerminalsWithUniqueID:`
lookup to ScriptWindow (returns all surfaces across all tabs)
- Add `terminals` computed property and `valueInTerminalsWithUniqueID:`
lookup to ScriptTab (returns surfaces within that tab)
Add five new AppleScript commands to Ghostty.sdef mirroring the existing
App Intents for terminal input:
- `input text`: send text to a terminal as if pasted
- `send key`: simulate a keyboard event with optional action and modifiers
- `send mouse button`: send a mouse button press/release event
- `send mouse position`: send a mouse cursor position event
- `send mouse scroll`: send a scroll event with precision and momentum
A shared `input action` enumeration (press/release) is used by both key
and mouse button commands. Modifier keys are passed as a comma-separated
string parameter (shift, control, option, command).
Add two new AppleScript commands to the scripting dictionary:
- `focus terminal <terminal>` — focuses the given terminal and brings
its window to the front.
- `close terminal <terminal>` — closes the given terminal without a
confirmation prompt.
Each command is implemented as an NSScriptCommand subclass following
the same pattern as the existing split command.
Add a new `split` command to the AppleScript scripting dictionary that
splits a terminal in a given direction (right, left, down, up) and
returns the newly created terminal.
The command is exposed as:
split terminal <terminal> direction <direction>
Also adds a `fourCharCode` String extension for converting four-character
ASCII strings to their FourCharCode (UInt32) representation.
