Advanced-mode hinting + completion-preview were dead: render_hint_panel
returned None for advanced mode (stale ADR-0022 §12 gate, predating the
SQL grammar) and the hint resolver/ambient_hint never threaded Mode, so a
SQL statement was gated as "this is SQL". The unified walker (ADR-0030/
0031/0032) speaks SQL, so this lifts the gate.
- ambient_hint_in_mode + hint_resolution_at_input_in_mode +
expected_for_hint_snapshot(mode); candidate/diagnostic/parse sub-calls
run in the active mode.
- render_hint_panel calls ambient for all modes; one-shot `:` sigil
stripped (strip_one_shot_prefix) so `: sel` hints `select`.
- ADR-0022 Amendment 1 + README index.
Found by manual advanced-mode testing; Phase 2 marked SQL hint/completion
green at the engine layer but never exercised the UI. App-level render
test (advanced_mode_hint_panel_surfaces_sql_candidates) + ambient-layer
regression locks. 1466 baseline green.
Replaces the originally-planned separate ADRs for syntax
highlighting (I4) and tab completion (I3) with a single
unified design. The framing: colour, hint panel, and Tab
are three answers to the same question — what does the user
need to know mid-typing? — and planning them separately
produces three loose pieces that drift apart.
Three mid-typing states (valid-so-far / definite-error /
incomplete-but-plausible) drive four layered channels:
token-class colour and parse-error overlay (silent, always
on), hint panel ambient and Tab-triggered completion mode
(verbose, in the existing hint panel — no floating popups).
Schema-aware from day one via an IdentSlot taxonomy in the
parser (NewName / TableName / ColumnIn(TableRef::Earlier(N))
/ RelationshipName); every existing ident() call gets
audited and tagged. Completion candidates come from chumsky's
expected-token-set for keyword slots and from a new worker
request (ListNamesFor) for identifier slots.
Implementation lands in 8 green-after-each commits: theme
colours; input panel highlighting; echo line highlighting;
render-time parse + error overlay; hint panel ambient;
identifier-slot taxonomy + parser audit; schema query
plumbing; completion mode + key bindings. Estimated
1500-2500 lines across the eight stages.
Out of scope (deliberately): inline ghost text (could return
as a "most-likely" affordance later — fish-shell style),
fuzzy matching, punctuation completion, user-customisable
keybindings, SQL highlighting in advanced mode (waits on Q4).
