`explore` was already a superset of `search` (4 columns: module → type → filtered children → detail, with parts/signals/connections — vs search's 2 columns of parts/signals only). It now also subsumes the former `net` screen: when a signal entry is selected, the detail pane shows the local pins followed by a `Net members (across connections)` section listing every `(module, signal, type)` reachable through the BFS over `Connection::pin_map`, with the count + dominant type and an INCONSISTENT flag in the signal-detail header. Removed: - `src/tui/screen_search.cpp`, `src/tui/screen_net.cpp`. - `commands["search"]`, `commands["net"]` (including its textual inline form). The `find_net` / `Net` API stays for explore's BFS panel and the analyze screen's net-mix check. - `[s]` and `[n]` letter shortcuts on the dashboard. - `net_*` and `search_*` state members + builders + constructor inits. screen_idx renumbering (the slots vacated by search + net are removed, not left dead): 0 = console (unchanged) 1 = connect 2 = set-connector-type 3 = explore (unchanged number, but now subsumes search + net) 4 = dashboard (boot) 5 = analyze Palette signal items now jump to `explore` prefilled on the signals tab with the child filter seeded to the exact signal name; the BFS section in the detail pane is what shows the cross-module net. Net-member rows in the detail pane are deliberately read-only for now (Enter is a no-op): the signal-type popup is scoped to the currently selected module, so opening it on a peer-module member would mis-fire. Cross-module Enter navigation can come later if needed. DESIGN.md and user docs updated accordingly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Regenerating the API reference
The Markdown tree under doc/api/ is committed so it's readable directly
on gitea. After substantive code changes, regenerate it:
# 1. Tooling (once): Doxygen, plus a Python 3 interpreter (already on Arch).
pacman -S doxygen
# 2. Configure once (or after editing doc/Doxyfile.in):
cmake -S . -B build
# 3. Regenerate:
cmake --build build --target doc
# 4. Review and commit the updated doc/api/ tree:
git add doc/api/
git status doc/api/
Pipeline:
src/**/*.{hpp,cpp} ──┐
README.md ─┼─► doxygen ─► build/doc/xml/ ─► gen_api_md.py ─► doc/api/
DESIGN.md ─┘ (Doxyfile.in)
(built essim) ────────► essim --commands-md ──────────────────────────► doc/user/commands.md
doc/user/index.md and doc/user/scripting.md are hand-written; only
doc/user/commands.md is regenerated. The doc target depends on the
essim binary so a stale build is rebuilt before the dump is taken.
If either Doxygen or Python 3 is missing at CMake-configure time the
doc target is silently disabled (the regular build still works) and a
status line is emitted in the CMake log telling you which one to install.
Why a custom emitter rather than doxybook2 / moxygen
doxybook2is not packaged in Arch / AUR and gets stale upstream.moxygendrags Node into a pure-C++ project.- The emitter is one Python file (
gen_api_md.py, ~330 lines) with zero external dependencies — easy to read, easy to tweak, robust to Doxygen version changes (the XML schema is stable).
Tailor the output by editing gen_api_md.py directly: add columns to
the class table, change the source-link format, group sections
differently, etc.
Comment style
The codebase uses standard Doxygen markers:
///for single-line briefs./** … */for multi-line blocks.@param,@return,@brief(or@short) tags inside blocks.@throwsfor exceptions a function may raise.
JAVADOC_AUTOBRIEF = YES is set so the first sentence of a multi-line
comment counts as the brief description without needing an explicit
@brief tag.
