196b9305c3 CmdPal: Add 'Keep previous query' setting to Command Palette (#45742)
## Summary

Closes #39929

Adds a new "Keep previous query" toggle to Command Palette settings that
preserves the last search text when the palette is reopened after
running a command.

## Changes

- **`SettingsModel.cs`** — Added `KeepPreviousQuery` bool property
(defaults to `false`)
- **`SettingsViewModel.cs`** — Added property with auto-save on change
- **`GeneralPage.xaml`** — Added toggle switch in the Activation
section, below "Highlight search on activate"
- **`Resources.resw`** — Added localized header ("Keep previous query")
and description ("Preserves the last search text when Command Palette is
reopened")
- **`SearchBar.xaml.cs`** — `Receive(GoHomeMessage)` now checks the
setting and skips `ClearSearch()` when enabled

## Behavior

- **Off (default):** No change from current behavior — search text is
cleared on dismiss.
- **On:** When a command is run and the palette dismisses, the search
text is preserved. On reopen, the previous query is still in the search
box. Combined with the existing "Highlight search on activate" setting,
the text will be pre-selected so the user can immediately retype or
press Enter to re-run.

## Validation

- Setting off: search clears on dismiss (existing behavior unchanged)
- Setting on: search text persists across dismiss/reopen
- Setting serializes/deserializes correctly via existing JSON settings
infrastructure
- No impact on page navigation, escape key behavior, or auto-go-home
timer

I noticed the double "active" line around the items when the ListPage is
focused. I was unable to find where that is defined. Ideally, the
black-border would go away.

I tested with AOT turned on.

The behavior accounts for suggestions. If the SearchBar is focused and
there is a suggestion, right-arrow will [continue] to complete the
suggestion.

e68526b8d8 CmdPal: Add configuration option for Escape key behavior (#43354)
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR adds a new option to the **General** page in **Settings**:

Escape key behavior — a dropdown with the following choices:

- Clear search first, then go back
  - Current behavior.
  - If the search box contains text, it is cleared; otherwise goes back.
  - On the home page, CmdPal is dismissed.

- Go back
  - Leaves the search text intact.
- If the page is not transient, the search text reappears when
returning.
  - On the home page, CmdPal is dismissed.

- Hide window and go home (Always dismiss)
  - Immediately dismisses CmdPal and navigates to the home page.
  - Ignores the **Go home when activated** setting.
  - Search text is cleared.

- Hide window
  - Just hides the window.
  - Intended to be used with #43355.

This implementation preserves existing behavior, except for **Always
dismiss**, which always forces navigation to the home page.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Previously, the page up/down keys only performed any action while an
item in the list was focused. The page up/down keys did not have any
effect while the search box was focused, however the up/down arrows do
have effect. This PR enables the page up/down keys while the search box
is focused.

There is a caveat here. The page up/down behavior is not consistent. I
do not see a way to tell the ListView to perform its native page up/down
function. Instead, I manually calculate roughly which item to scroll-to.
Because of this, the amount of scroll between when the search box is
focused and when an item in the ListView is focused is not consistent.

2b6c5d2cdd CmdPal: Hide search box on content pages [experiment] (#41479)
## Summary of the Pull Request

CmdPal now displays the search box only on pages that derive from
ListPage. On ContentPage (forms, etc.), the search box is hidden.

- Moves keyboard shortcut handling from SearchBox to ShellPage so
shortcuts are always handled.
- Keeps the search box hidden/disabled to preserve layout metrics. 
- Refines focus management to prevent focus jumps during navigation. 
- For ContentPage page's content gains focus automatically (not just
form inputs, but now markdown content as well - so you can scroll
immediately, for example).
- Adds accessibility (a11y) tweaks: when navigating to content pages
without a visible search box, sets an explicit focus target so screen
readers announce a meaningful element. Screen reader will now announce
navigation to the page.
- Adds a title to the main list page - "Home".

e1681ec08f CmdPal: Add Context Menu command "Show Details" when list item has details, but list view's ShowDetails == false (#40870)
Closes #38270

When a list item's `Details` property is not null, but it's parent
ListViews `ShowDetails` property is false, this PR adds a context menu
item at the bottom of the commands for the list item to show details.
Clicking that command will show the details for the selected item, but
the details pane will hide when a different item is selected.

69dc1d5e18 CmdPal: Filters for DynamicListPage? Yes, please. (#40783)
Closes: #40382

## To-do list

- [x] Add support for "single-select" filters to DynamicListPage
- [x] Filters can contain icons
- [x] Filter list can contain separators
- [x] Update Windows Services built-in extension to support filtering by
all, started, stopped, and pending services
- [x] Update SampleExtension dynamic list sample to filter.

## Example of filters in use

```C#
internal sealed partial class ServicesListPage : DynamicListPage
{
    public ServicesListPage()
    {
        Icon = Icons.ServicesIcon;
        Name = "Windows Services";

        var filters = new ServiceFilters();
        filters.PropChanged += Filters_PropChanged;
        Filters = filters;
    }

    private void Filters_PropChanged(object sender, IPropChangedEventArgs args) => RaiseItemsChanged();

    public override void UpdateSearchText(string oldSearch, string newSearch) => RaiseItemsChanged();

    public override IListItem[] GetItems()
    {
       // ServiceHelper.Search knows how to filter based on the CurrentFilterIds provided
        var items = ServiceHelper.Search(SearchText, Filters.CurrentFilterIds).ToArray();

        return items;
    }
}

public partial class ServiceFilters : Filters
{
    public ServiceFilters()
    {
        // This would be a default selection. Not providing this will cause the filter
        // control to display the "Filter" placeholder text.
        CurrentFilterIds = ["all"];
    }

    public override IFilterItem[] GetFilters()
    {
        return [
            new Filter() { Id = "all", Name = "All Services" },
            new Separator(),
            new Filter() { Id = "running", Name = "Running", Icon = Icons.GreenCircleIcon },
            new Filter() { Id = "stopped", Name = "Stopped", Icon = Icons.RedCircleIcon },
            new Filter() { Id = "paused", Name = "Paused", Icon = Icons.PauseIcon },
        ];
    }
}
```

6acb793184 CmdPal: Null pattern matching based on is expression rather than overridable operators (#40972)
What the title says. 😄 

Rather than relying on the potentially overloaded `!=` or `==` operators
when checking for null, now we'll use the `is` expression (possibly
combined with the `not` operator) to ensure correct checking. Probably
overkill for many of these classes, but decided to err on the side of
consistency. Would matter more on classes that may be inherited or
extended.

Using `is` and `is not` will provide us a guarantee that no
user-overloaded equality operators (`==`/`!=`) is invoked when a
`expression is null` is evaluated.

In code form, changed all instances of:

```c#
something != null

something == null
```

to:

```c#
something is not null

something is null
```

The one exception was checking null on a `KeyChord`. `KeyChord` is a
struct which is never null so VS will raise an error when trying this
versus just providing a warning when using `keyChord != null`. In
reality, we shouldn't do this check because it can't ever be null. In
the case of a `KeyChord` it **would** be a `KeyChord` equivalent to:

```c#
KeyChord keyChord = new ()
{
    Modifiers = 0,
    Vkey = 0,
    ScanCode = 0
};
```

there is any.
* Any new commands that are run, or files/dirs that are opened will also
get added to the history
* history will persist across reboots

This entirely rewrites the shell page. It feels a lot more like the old
run dialog now.

* It's got icons for files & exes
* it can handle network paths
* it can handle `commands /with args...`
* it'll suggest files in that path as you type
* it handles `%environmentVariables%`
* it handles `"Paths with\spaces in them"`
* it shows you the path as a suggestion, in the text box, as you move
the selection

Closes #39419

Closes #40311


### Remaining todo's
* [x] Remove the `GenerateAppxManifest` change, and file something to
fix that. We are still generating msix's on every build, wtf
* [x] Clean-up code
* [x] Double-check loc
* [x] Remove a bunch of debug printing that we don't need anymore
* [ ] File a separate PR for moving the file (indexer) commands into a
common project, and re-use those here
* [x] Add history support again! I totally tore that out
  * did that in #40427 
* [x] make `shell:` paths and weird URI's just work. Good test is
`x-cmdpal://settings`

### further optimizations that probably aren't blocking
* [x] Our fast up-to-date is clearly broken, but I think that's been
broken since early 0.91
* [x] If the exe doesn't change, we don't need to create a new ListItem
for it. We can just re-use the current one, and just change the args
* [ ] if the directory hasn't changed, but we typed more chars (e.g.
`c:\windows\s` -> `c:\windows\sys`), we should cache the ListItem's from
the first query, and re-use them if possible.

cc16b61eb7 Create a Microsoft.CmdPal.Core.ViewModels project (#40560)
_targets #40504_ 

Major refactoring for #40113

This moves a large swath of the codebase to a `.Core` project. "Core"
doesn't have any explicit dependencies on "extensions", settings or the
current `MainListPage`. It's just a filterable list of stuff. This
should let us make this component a bit more reusable.

This is half of a PR. As I did this, I noticed a particular bit of code
for TopLevelVViewModels and CommandPaletteHost that was _very rough_.
Solving it in this PR would make "move everything to a new project" much
harder to review. So I'm submitting two PRs simultaneously, so we can
see the changes separately, then merge together.

e041556395 CmdPal: Handle Alt+Left Arrow even when search bar contains text (#40516)
Previously, the `KeyDown` handler for `Alt+Left Arrow` was not invoked
if the search bar contained text. By moving the logic to the
`PreviewKeyDown` handler, we ensure the shortcut is handled regardless
of the search bar’s content.

The handler was added to the `ShellPage`'s `PreviewKeyDown` handler,
rather than the one on `SearchBar`. This will allow the shortcut to be
available throughout the entire window and will ensure it works from
within the page content, e.g. from forms

100fca4468 CmdPal: Refactoring ContextMenu adding separators, IsCritical styling, and right-click context menus for list items (#40189)
Refactored ContextMenu into it's own control to allow displaying in
CommandBar and in response to right click on list items.

- Adds "critical" styling to context menu items flagged as `IsCritical`.
This will use the theme to style with correct color.
- Added `SeparatorContextItem` and modified `MoreCommands` to allow for
both `CommandContextItem`s and `SeparatorContextItem`s.
- Right clicking a list item with a context menu will open the context
menu at the position of the click and position the filter box at the top
of the context menu.

bf16e10baf Updates for check-spelling v0.0.25 (#40386)
## Summary of the Pull Request

- #39572 updated check-spelling but ignored:
   > 🐣 Breaking Changes
[Code Scanning action requires a Code Scanning
Ruleset](https://github.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/wiki/Breaking-Change:-Code-Scanning-action-requires-a-Code-Scanning-Ruleset)
If you use SARIF reporting, then instead of the workflow yielding an 
when it fails, it will rely on [github-advanced-security
🤖](https://github.com/apps/github-advanced-security) to report the
failure. You will need to adjust your checks for PRs.

This means that check-spelling hasn't been properly doing its job 😦.

I'm sorry, I should have pushed a thing to this repo earlier,...

Anyway, as with most refreshes, this comes with a number of fixes, some
are fixes for typos that snuck in before the 0.0.25 upgrade, some are
for things that snuck in after, some are based on new rules in
spell-check-this, and some are hand written patterns based on running
through this repository a few times.

About the 🐣 **breaking change**: someone needs to create a ruleset for
this repository (see [Code Scanning action requires a Code Scanning
Ruleset: Sample ruleset

](https://github.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/wiki/Breaking-Change:-Code-Scanning-action-requires-a-Code-Scanning-Ruleset#sample-ruleset)).

The alternative to adding a ruleset is to change the condition to not
use sarif for this repository. In general, I think the github
integration from sarif is prettier/more helpful, so I think that it's
the better choice.

You can see an example of it working in:

f63fcfd91c Add support for filterable, nested context menus (#38776)
_targets #38573_

At first I just wanted to add support for nested context menus.

But then I also had to add a search box, so the focus wouldn't get weird.

End result:

![nested-menus-001](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/4e8f1ec8-4b09-4095-9b81-caf7abde8aea)

This gets rid of the need to have the search box and the command bar both track item keybindings - now it's just in the command bar.

Closes #38442

* [x] Re-adds the context menu shortcut text
* [x] Hooks up the keybindings to the search box so that you can just press the keys while you have an item selected, and do a context command
* [x] Hook these keybindings up to the context flyout itself
* [x] Adds a sample for testing

This immediately selects the search text when a page is loaded.

f68f408be3 Add the Command Palette module (#37908)
Windows Command Palette ("CmdPal") is the next iteration of PowerToys Run. With extensibility at its core, the Command Palette is your one-stop launcher to start _anything_.

By default, CmdPal is bound to <kbd>Win+Alt+Space</kbd>.

![cmdpal-pr-002](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/5077ec04-1009-478a-92d6-0a30989d44ac)
![cmdpal-pr-003](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/63b4762a-9c19-48eb-9242-18ea48240ba0)

----

This brings the current preview version of CmdPal into the upstream PowerToys repo. There are still lots of bugs to work out, but it's reached the state we're ready to start sharing it with the world. From here, we can further collaborate with the community on the features that are important, and ensuring that we've got a most robust API to enable developers to build whatever extensions they want. 

Most of the built-in PT Run modules have already been ported to CmdPal's extension API. Those include:
* Installed apps
* Shell commands
* File search (powered by the indexer)
* Windows Registry search
* Web search
* Windows Terminal Profiles
* Windows Services
* Windows settings


There are a couple new extensions built-in
* You can now search for packages on `winget` and install them right from the palette. This also powers searching for extensions for the palette
* The calculator has an entirely new implementation. This is currently less feature complete than the original PT Run one - we're looking forward to updating it to be more complete for future ingestion in Windows
* "Bookmarks" allow you to save shortcuts to files, folders, and webpages as top-level commands in the palette. 

We've got a bunch of other samples too, in this repo and elsewhere

### PowerToys specific notes

CmdPal will eventually graduate out of PowerToys to live as its own application, which is why it's implemented just a little differently than most other modules. Enabling CmdPal will install its `msix` package. 

The CI was minorly changed to support CmdPal version numbers independent of PowerToys itself. It doesn't make sense for us to start CmdPal at v0.90, and in the future, we want to be able to rev CmdPal independently of PT itself. 


Closes #3200, closes #3600, closes #7770, closes #34273, closes #36471, closes #20976, closes #14495

TODOs et al


**Blocking:**
- [ ] Images and descriptions in Settings and OOBE need to be properly defined, as mentioned before
  - [ ] Niels is on it
- [x] Doesn't start properly from PowerToys unless the fix PR is merged.
  - https://github.com/zadjii-msft/PowerToys/pull/556 merged
- [x] I seem to lose focus a lot when I press on some limits, like between the search bar and the results.
  - This is https://github.com/zadjii-msft/PowerToys/issues/427
- [x] Turned off an extension like Calculator and it was still working.
  - Need to get rid of that toggle, it doesn't do anything currently
- [x] `ListViewModel.<FetchItems>` crash
  - Pretty confident that was fixed in https://github.com/zadjii-msft/PowerToys/pull/553

**Not blocking / improvements:**
- Show the shortcut through settings, as mentioned before, or create a button that would open CmdPalette settings.
- When PowerToys starts, CmdPalette is always shown if enabled. That's weird when just starting PowerToys/ logging in to the computer with PowerToys auto-start activated. I think this should at least be a setting.
- Needing to double press a result for it to do the default action seems quirky. If one is already selected, I think just pressing should be enough for it to do the action.
  - This is currently a setting, though we're thinking of changing the setting even more: https://github.com/zadjii-msft/PowerToys/issues/392
- There's no URI extension. Was surprised when typing a URL that it only proposed a web search.
- [x] There's no System commands extension. Was expecting to be able to quickly restart the computer by typing restart but it wasn't there.
  - This is in PR https://github.com/zadjii-msft/PowerToys/pull/452
