Zellij Plugin Setup

Prerequisites

Install rustup (required for WASM target):

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

Build the Plugin

./build-plugin.sh

This will:

  1. Add the wasm32-wasip1 target
  2. Compile the plugin to WASM
  3. Install to ~/.config/zellij/plugins/

Usage

Quick Test

zellij action new-pane --plugin file:~/.config/zellij/plugins/faster.wasm

Add to Layout

Create ~/.config/zellij/layouts/faster.kdl:

layout {
    pane size=1 borderless=true {
        plugin location="tab-bar"
    }

    pane split_direction="vertical" {
        pane size="70%" {
            // Your main terminal
        }
        pane size="30%" {
            plugin location="file:~/.config/zellij/plugins/faster.wasm"
        }
    }

    pane size=2 borderless=true {
        plugin location="status-bar"
    }
}

Then run:

zellij --layout faster

Keyboard Shortcuts

In the plugin pane:

  • i - Enter command input mode
  • Esc - Exit input mode
  • Enter - Submit command
  • j/k or ↓/↑ - Navigate tasks
  • d - Cancel selected task
  • r - Refresh task list

Architecture

The plugin displays the same SQLite queue used by the faster CLI:

  • Read-only view of ~/.faster/knowledge.db
  • Real-time updates every second
  • Keyboard-driven interface
  • No mouse required

Commands added via the plugin are processed by faster daemon.
