Michael Suchacz 6f1d225d2e fix(site): improve chat slash menu enter handling, anchoring, and placement (#28411)
When the last token of a follow-up prompt is an absolute filesystem path
(e.g. `check /var/log/syslog`), the skill slash menu opened with "No
skills match that query." and swallowed Enter, so the prompt could not
be submitted without adding a trailing space or quoting the path.
Follow-up composers always pass slash commands, so the menu opened for
any `/`-token; the Enter handler then consumed the keypress
unconditionally while the menu was open.

Three fixes (CODAGT-956):

- Enter with no selectable match now dismisses the menu and lets the
same keypress fall through to the submit handler. While a skill source
is still loading (personal skills fetching, or workspace skills
unknown), a zero-match Enter stays consumed so a pending fetch cannot
let a would-be skill trigger submit as raw text; a no-match Tab still
falls through so keyboard users can leave the composer.
- The menu is anchored to the composer box instead of a caret-derived
rect, so it no longer follows the cursor while the query is typed.
- The menu renders directly above the chat input at exactly the
composer's width on desktop, matching its pinned-above-composer
presentation on small viewports. The caret-rect plumbing (live caret
measurement, fixed 1px anchor span, scroll/resize listeners) is removed.

Storybook interaction coverage was updated accordingly:
`FilteredEmptyEnterClosesAndSubmits` (replaces
`FilteredEmptyKeepsMenuOpen`), `TrailingPathEnterSubmits`,
`EnterWhileSkillsLoadingDoesNotSubmit`, `MenuStaysAnchoredWhileTyping`,
and `OpensAboveAnchorAtAnchorWidth`. Each new story was verified red
against the reverted fix and green with it. Remote dogfood UAT validated
the Enter/anchoring/placement scenarios and regressions in the real UI
across two rounds (round 2 covering the composer-width presentation).

Coder is a self-hosted platform for cloud development environments and AI coding agents. Workspaces are defined with Terraform, connected through a secure Wireguard® tunnel, and automatically shut down when not used. Coder Agents runs a native AI coding agent whose loop executes in the control plane on your infrastructure, with no API keys in workspaces.

  • Define cloud development environments in Terraform
    • EC2 VMs, Kubernetes Pods, Docker Containers, etc.
  • Automatically shutdown idle resources to save on costs
  • Onboard developers in seconds instead of days
  • Delegate coding work to AI agents on your infrastructure
    • Bring any model (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Bedrock, self-hosted)
    • No LLM credentials in workspaces, user identity on every action
    • Centralized model governance, cost tracking, and audit logging

Quickstart

Check out our install guides for other methods and a complete tutorial.

Try Coder with the install script on Linux and macOS, or grab the latest binary or installer from GitHub Releases on Windows:

curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh

Start the server and open http://localhost:3000 to create your initial user, create a Docker template, and provision your first workspace:

coder server

For a production deployment, add a PostgreSQL database (version 13 or later) and an external access URL, and see our validated architectures for sizing and infrastructure guidance:

coder server --postgres-url <url> --access-url <url>

Without these flags, Coder uses a built-in database and sets up a *.try.coder.app access URL for evaluation. Use coder --help for the full list of flags and environment variables.
