Ask

Make the centred search panel taller/longer. Its current conservative height leaves too little result content visible; increase the usable vertical extent while retaining the panel's existing field, results, focus, dismissal, and soft-edge behavior.

Files and APIs

  • Sources/Hermternal/Views/Search/SearchPanel.swift: panel placement and maximum-height use.
  • Sources/Hermternal/Views/Search/SearchSurfaceGeometry.swift: shared panel dimensions and geometry calculations.
  • Sources/Hermternal/Views/Search/SearchPanelModel.swift: only if the larger surface changes visible-state or result-layout decisions.
  • Apply the progressive soft-edge treatment documented by the progressive-blur-edge skill where scrolling results meet fixed panel chrome.

Acceptance

  • In the real macOS chat window, the centred panel is visibly taller than the current one-third-height treatment and shows more results before scrolling.
  • The larger panel remains centred, stays within the window at small and large supported sizes, and does not clip the search field, result rows, count/indexing metadata, or dismissal control.
  • Results continue to scroll beneath the fixed field/chrome with a soft fade rather than a hard divider or readable text abruptly clipped at the edge.
  • ⌘K still focuses the field immediately, Escape/outside click still dismisses, and selecting a result still opens the intended message.
