Metal AgentandClaude Opus 5 2aab0c4aab Stop compiling the GPL crate GPUI drags in behind the framework
Lumbridge is Apache-2.0, and decision 0023 quietly made it link
GPL-3.0-or-later. `crates/gpui/Cargo.toml` at the pinned revision carries
`ztracing.workspace = true` -- unconditional, not optional, not behind a
feature -- and `ztracing` is GPL-3.0-or-later, as are the `zlog` and
`ztracing_macro` it pulls. `sum_tree` asks for it too. The path is the ordinary
Linux build, not an `--all-features` artefact and not a dev-dependency:

    lumbridge -> gpui_platform -> gpui_linux -> gpui -> ztracing -> zlog
                                                                -> ztracing_macro

`cargo deny check licenses` failed on it, exit 4.

This is the second thing decision 0023 got wrong by reading the manifests of the
crates it added instead of resolving the graph; the first was believing there
were two Zed Git sources when there are five. Both were found by a gate that had
never been run.

There was no feature to turn off, so the choice was to relax the licence policy,
drop the framework, or stop compiling the crate. `ztracing` is now redirected by
a `[patch]` table at `crates/lumbridge-ztracing-shim`, a first-party
zero-dependency no-op under Apache-2.0. `zlog` and `ztracing_macro` were
reachable only through it and leave the lockfile with it.

The shim is small because the usage is: nine `#[instrument(skip_all)]` sites
across `gpui/src/svg_renderer.rs`, `sum_tree/src/sum_tree.rs` and
`sum_tree/src/cursor.rs`, and nothing else. Upstream's own crate compiles to
almost exactly this whenever the `ztracing` cfg is off, which is every build
that is not a Tracy profiling build, so no shipping behaviour is lost. It is a
proc-macro crate deliberately: such a crate can export nothing but proc macros,
so an upstream revision that starts using `ztracing::Span` or
`ztracing::info_span!` fails to compile and names the shim, rather than
resolving to something plausible.

`scripts/workspace-guard.sh` gained a third gate asserting, against Cargo.lock
rather than the manifest, that no `ztracing`, `zlog` or `ztracing_macro`
resolves to a Zed source and that the patch table is still present. `cargo deny`
already checks this, and the duplication is the point: `scripts/ci.sh`
downgrades a missing cargo-deny to a warning unless `LUMBRIDGE_CI_STRICT=1`, and
that is how the licence closure went ungated once already. A `[patch]` is an
unusually quiet thing to lose -- delete the table and everything still compiles,
still passes, and is GPL again.

Removing the three GPL rejections exposed a fourth that had been sitting beside
them and was never reported separately: `libbz2-rs-sys` under `bzip2-1.0.6`,
reached through async-compression <- http_client <- gpui. It is BSD-style and
permissive with no copyleft, and is allowed in `deny.toml` with that reasoning
written down. `cargo deny check licenses sources` is exit 0 for the first time.

The Git-source allowances in `deny.toml` are all still needed; the patched
crate's own source was `zed.git`, which `gpui` still requires.

Decision 0025 records the whole of it.

Metal AgentandClaude Opus 5 378e3eb0eb Name the Git sources the framework arrives through
Stage 3 of decision 0023. cargo deny reports these as unmatched today, which
is correct: nothing depends on them yet. Landing the allowance before the
dependency means the swap in the next commit fails on a compiler error if it
fails at all, rather than on a policy the same change would have had to edit.

zed-industries/font-kit is the one worth reading twice. gpui_wgpu reaches
font-kit through a Git source rather than crates.io, so adopting GPUI brings
two Git sources, not one -- and an allowance discovered while debugging a
failed build is an allowance nobody reviewed.

Metal AgentandClaude Opus 5 9a29e8e335 Make the gate structural, and correct what it tells an agent
CI / rust-ui (push) Failing after 6m20s
CI / rust-headless (push) Successful in 6m38s
Three gates in this repository were decorative, and each was discovered by
being wrong rather than by failing.

A crate directory in neither members nor exclude is silently not built, which
is how lumbridge-devices shipped 1,127 lines that had never compiled.
scripts/workspace-guard.sh refuses that state, and asserts the gpui source
and version out of Cargo.lock rather than the manifest, because a manifest
states an intent while the lockfile states what would actually be compiled --
and a caret requirement accepts a version nobody reviewed. It needs no
compiler, so it runs first and in the headless job, which unlike the UI job
is not continue-on-error and can therefore actually fail a push.

deny.toml's source policy had never been executed: ci.sh ran `check
licenses` alone, and `check sources` failed immediately on the rev-pinned
buzz-sdk. The permitted Git sources are now named one by one and the check
runs, so a fourth is a decision rather than an accident.

cargo-deny and cargo-nextest being absent was a warning that let a run report
green having skipped the licence gate DISTRIBUTION.md depends on. Under
LUMBRIDGE_CI_STRICT=1 a missing tool now fails; locally it stays a warning so
a contributor is not blocked.

skills/lumbridge-development/SKILL.md told every agent that GPUI and Floem
live in spikes/ and that no framework may be selected until both pass the
hard gates. Decision 0017 settled that a month ago in the opposite direction.
The entry point an agent is meant to read was the least accurate document in
the repository.

Decision 0023 records where the GPUI dependency actually goes. Published gpui
has not been released since 2025-10-22, Zed's main still declares 0.2.2 with
no bump pending, the platform backends moved to crates that inherit
publish = false, gpui's own x11 and wayland features are now empty markers,
and 0.2.2 has no accesskit dependency at all -- so "published now, migrate
later" was never available. The adapter 0017 promised was never written and
the call sites grew from few to 147 against 20 identities, so the adapter is
written first, on 0.2.2, before the dependency moves.

Metal AgentandClaude Opus 5 316fa32745 Graduate the shell out of spikes/ into apps/lumbridge
The product was spikes/gpui-shell: a cargo workspace of its own, named in the
root manifest's exclude list. It inherited neither unsafe_code = "forbid" nor
clippy pedantic, and ./scripts/ci.sh never compiled it. Every test written into
it silently never ran, and apps/lumbridge was an eleven-line stub printing a
version string.

Four separate research passes over the sidebar, settings, devices, and theme
work independently discovered they were about to write substantial new code into
that directory. Graduating first means writing it once.

- apps/lumbridge is the product; spikes/ui-shell-model becomes
  crates/lumbridge-ui-fixture and joins the workspace.
- scripts/ci.sh takes --headless and --ui. The headless pass excludes the two UI
  crates by name, so a contributor changing lumbridge-core does not wait on a
  window toolkit, and a runner that cannot carry GPUI still gates everything
  else. A new crate is headless by default rather than silently joining the slow
  job.
- scripts/native-libs.sh replaces the ad-hoc symlink in the launcher, and says
  which apt package actually fixes the problem instead of working around it
  silently. The stale libxcb/libxkbcommon symlinks in the old spike target
  directory are gone; only libxkbcommon-x11.so was ever needed.
- deny.toml and cargo deny check licenses. spikes/README.md called GPUI's
  licence closure a hard gate and the scorecard scored it pending; graduation
  makes it the product's closure, so it is enforced rather than described. Two
  rejections were reviewed and allowed with the reasoning recorded in the file:
  webpki-roots under CDLA-Permissive-2.0 (Mozilla's CA store, data not code,
  reached through ureq) and libfuzzer-sys under NCSA (reached only under
  all-features via gpui's image decoder; no shipped build links it).

Clippy pedantic across both crates is clean at -D warnings. render was 353
lines; render_sidebar, render_tabs, and render_root come out of it, which the
sidebar rework needed anyway. The remaining over-length functions are single
declarative element trees and carry per-function allows with reasons, not a
blanket suppression.

Decision 0017 records the two calls this forces: published gpui 0.2.2 behind an
accessibility adapter rather than an unpinned Zed revision and an MSRV bump, and
Floem frozen rather than maintained in parity or deleted.
