Summary

Closes #98.

degu-tui is a read-only browser over the report degu scan --json already writes. It regroups the findings by ecosystem, disposition, or kind, reorders them by size, inodes, age, or path, and shows the full record for whichever one is selected. The scan runs where the files are; the reading happens wherever the reader is.

It browses the aggregated findings the report contains and nothing below them. The crate holds no directory, child, or parent type, and must not grow one: degu's distinguishing measurement is flat memory, and a browser that rebuilt a tree would spend exactly that advantage on the login node where it matters most.

Cache findings and node-runtime diagnostics stay separate, with separate totals, because runtime findings are Not managed and never join cache totals. Classification reads only the disposition modes degu serializes — eligible, opt_in, report_only — and treats anything unrecognized as Not managed, so a newer degu naming a mode this build cannot evaluate never overstates what may be cleaned. Ownership is displayed because it explains a disposition, but it never decides one. The labels and colours are the printed report's own: a reader should not have to learn the product twice.

Preserved behavior. The printed report, the frozen JSON schema, and every existing command are untouched; the schema is this crate's input, not something it extends. degu does not depend on degu-tui, so the installed binary's dependency tree is unchanged.

Not a second deletion path. The browser opens one file and has no other capability: no traversal, so it cannot cross a mount or follow a symlink; it never stats or opens a path named in the report; no mutation, no lock, and no access to staging, trash, or the WAL. The frame says so beside the totals — a saved report is a static snapshot, not a cleanup plan, and carries no cleanup authority. Selection and confirmation, if they are ever added, must rescan, replan, and reauthorize through the same Plan and Guard the CLI uses.

Bounds. The report is capped at 64 MiB, checked from the file length before it is read; findings at 100,000; totals use checked arithmetic and are written over N rather than wrapping; the JSON text is released before the view is built. Grouping is aggregated through a map and cached, and the panel builds only the rows it can show while saying how many it omitted.

Terminals. Both stdout and stdin must be a terminal, checked before the alternate screen is entered: with only stdout checked, a redirected stdin takes the screen and then waits for a key that can never arrive. Reading the report from a pipe is refused for the same reason. Ctrl-D quits alongside q and Esc.

Cost. ratatui is the roadmap's stated choice and resolves against the workspace's existing crossterm version, so no version is duplicated. Its tree brings foldhash, which is Zlib-licensed, so deny.toml gains an exception scoped to that one crate rather than admitting Zlib globally; any other Zlib dependency still trips the gate. Zlib binds only source distributions, so a published binary carries no notice obligation from it, and MIT — which this project already ships under — asks for more.

Not published. The crate is publish = false and is absent from the release archive, the installer, and the installation documents. Run it with cargo run -p degu-tui -- scan.json. Shipping it is a release-contract decision to be taken with the archive, the installer, and the docs together.

Validation

Passed locally on this branch:

cargo test --workspace --locked
cargo test -p degu-tui --locked
cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets --locked -- -D warnings
cargo check --workspace --all-targets --locked --target x86_64-unknown-linux-musl
cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets --locked --target x86_64-unknown-linux-musl -- -D warnings
cargo deny check
cargo publish --workspace --dry-run --locked
cargo fmt --all -- --check
git diff --check

The workspace run completed 1,593 passing executions with 0 failures, including 51 of 51 in degu-tui. cargo deny reports advisories, bans, licenses, and sources all clean, and the publication dry run uploads only degu-core, degu-walk, degu-adapters, and degu. The musl commands are cross-compile and lint checks from macOS; the final static link stays a Linux CI job.

Two costs on the drawing path were measured before and after, against a legal report of 100,000 findings that each name a distinct ecosystem — the worst case for grouping, 34.9 MiB and inside the input bound. Release build, same machine, same input:

before after
one grouping pass 9.815 s 0.017 s
one frame draw 62.3 ms 2.2 ms

The first was a linear scan of the rows built so far, on a path that redraws four times a second; it is now a map, and cached so it recomputes only on a keypress. The second built a line per group regardless of how many the panel could show; it now builds only the visible rows. A regression test holds the grouping to linear behaviour rather than to either duration.

The column measurement was checked the same way. A recorded CJK path measures 52 terminal columns against the 44 a character count reports, and the assertion that catches it was verified by reverting the width function to a character count and confirming the test fails.

Safety

  • The parser is driven by a fixture recorded from a real degu scan --runtime --json, reduced and anonymized. Inventing the shape by hand produced a first version that could not open a real report at all: age_days was typed from a sample where every age happened to be known, and the disposition modes were guessed rather than read.
  • A completeness state this build cannot evaluate is a floor, not a measurement. Where a section calls itself incomplete or truncated, that appears beside the number rather than in a legend.
  • Control characters from the report are escaped on the drawing path. The rule mirrors presentation/terminal.rs, which is private to its crate, and is tested against ESC, OSC, CR, NUL, and U+2028.
  • Colour comes from the classified disposition, never from matching label text, so renaming a label cannot move the words and leave the colour behind.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added an interactive terminal browser for saved degu scan reports.
    • Browse cache and runtime findings with grouping, filtering, sorting, pagination, and section switching.
    • View report summaries, allocation details, completeness status, and selected finding details.
    • Added responsive layouts, terminal-aware text handling, keyboard navigation, help guidance, and visual status indicators.
    • Added safe rendering for special characters and clear messages for unavailable or incomplete scan data.
    • Improved handling of invalid report paths and non-regular files.

report-loading flow while preserving the existing error conditions and messages’
diagnostic context.

group-list and active-filter paths, including the code around pad and the
corresponding rendering at the second occurrence. Preserve the existing padding
and display behavior while ensuring control sequences in ecosystem or kind
values cannot reach the terminal unescaped.
