README

superzent

superzent

Superzent is a fork of the Zed editor inspired by superset.sh,
designed to make AI workflows a first-class part of the development environment.

superzent demo

One window, multiple local workspaces with git worktree, fast file navigation, diff views, terminal-heavy agent workflows, and center-pane ACP chat tabs.

Why superzent

  • Compared with upstream Zed: more opinionated around managing multiple local projects and workspaces in one window, especially for git-worktree-heavy flows, with external ACP chats treated as a first-class center-pane workflow.
  • Compared with superset.sh: keeps a native editor in the loop, with language-server-backed navigation, diagnostics, and quick in-place edits alongside terminal agent workflows.
  • All telemetry is off. Metrics and crash diagnostics are disabled by default and there is no collection endpoint configured.

Keyboard Shortcuts

Shortcuts that differ from upstream Zed:

Shortcut Action
Cmd+T Open terminal in center pane
Cmd+Shift+C Copy project-relative path
Ctrl+\ Next workspace
Ctrl+| Previous workspace
Ctrl+Cmd+Enter Open the workspace from the agent notification popup
Ctrl+Cmd+Escape Dismiss the agent notification popup

`Cmd+W` never closes the OS window — quit with `Cmd+Q` instead.

On macOS, the notification shortcuts are registered as global hotkeys while a popup is visible, so they work even when superzent is not the focused app.

Status

This repository is in early alpha.

Current focus:

  • local repositories and git worktrees
  • native editor, split panes, and diff views
