6e5ad11bc3 CmdpPal: SearchBox visibility and async loading race (#42783) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR introduces two related fixes to improve the stability and
reliability of navigation and search UI behavior in the shell:

- **Ensure search box visibility is correctly updated**  
- `ShellViewModel` previously set `IsSearchBoxVisible` after navigation
to the page, but didn’t update it when the value changed. While the
value isn’t expected to change dynamically, the property initialization
is asynchronous, which could cause a race condition.
- As a defensive measure, this also changes the default value of
uninitialized property to make it visible by default.

- **Cancel asynchronous focus placement if navigation changes**  
- Ensures that any pending asynchronous focus operation is cancelled
when another navigation occurs before it completes.

ae6da3235b CmdPal: Cleanup warnings, part 1 (#42584) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR fixes several warnings in the Command Palette projects.


- _MSB4011_: `"Sdk.props" cannot be imported again. It was already
imported ...`
  - Removed the `Sdk` attribute from `CoreCommonProps.props`.

- _CsWinRT1028_ – “Class should be marked partial” on
*CsWin32*-generated classes.
- Since these classes cannot be made partial, a suppression attribute
has been added.
  - The `LocalKeyboardListener` type has been marked as partial.

- _Resource.resx_ – some strings had empty values.  
  - Updated the missing content.

- _WMC1506_ – *OneWay* bindings require at least one step to support
change notifications.
- In `SettingsWindow.xaml`, the breadcrumb binding was changed from
*OneWay* to *OneTime*, as `Crumb` does not support change notifications.

- _WMC0001_ – Unknown type in XML namespace
- In `SettingsWindow.xaml`, `FontWeight` was qualified with the CLR
namespace `Windows.UI.Text`.

55e974dea4 CmdPal: Fix FiltersViewModel binding (#42467) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR resolves crashes on pages with filters, such as Windows Terminal
profiles or Windows Services, when compiled with trimming/AOT.

It removes runtime binding from the FiltersDropDown control, effectively
preventing crashes caused by trimming/AOT dropping binding metadata for
FilterItemViewModel.

bb6f9a8b08 CmdPal: Add metadata to items in the clipboard history (#42188) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR introduces the `IClipboardMetadataProvider` interface, which
inspects clipboard items and returns metadata plus optional actions.

Also this implementation updates changes how `DetailsLink` link is
handled through shell, to enable `file:` scheme to be handled
(`Hyperlink.NavigateUri` and `HyperlinkButton.NavigateUri` explicitly
blocks `file:` scheme, see
[here](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-app-sdk/api/winrt/microsoft.ui.xaml.controls.hyperlinkbutton?view=windows-app-sdk-1.8)).

**Implemented providers:**
- `ImageMetadataProvider` — reports image dimensions, DPI, and byte
size.
- `TextFileSystemMetadataProvider` — recognizes text as a file-system
path and, if it exists, provides details about the target.
- `WebLinkMetadataProvider` — recognizes text as a URL and provides
link-related metadata.
- `TextMetadataProvider` — reports text statistics (e.g., character and
word counts).

05b605ef27 CmdPal: Cleanup content page view model when no longer needed (#42293) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR:

- Cleans up ContentPageViewModel when its page unloads to ensure it
unsubscribes from ItemsChanged.

- Clears the command bar before initializing a new page view model,
allowing the new VM to set its own state without being overridden by the
shell afterward.

cd5b76c988 CmdPal: make the context menu search look more like a cmdpal (#42081) 
Replaces our styling with the same styleing we use for the search bar

But we can't _just_ do that, because the stupid "text cursors don't show
up on top of transparent backgrounds" thing.

So I just added the smoke backdrop to the search box. Seemed reasonable.

Screenshots below.

ca4e8b2986 CmdPal: Cancel page load when superseded by a new page navigation (#42233) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR introduces cancellation support for navigation. If a user
navigates to page X and then returns back or navigates elsewhere before
the page X fully loads, this update ensures that page X will not set
itself as the current page and is ignored.

It resolves the issue where returning to the home page left the previous
page's icon and placeholder visible in the search bar, causing the
search functionality to fail.

466a94eb40 CmdPal: Fix updating primary command and context menu and app icons (#42155) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR fixes three issues in one go:
- Restores missing icons in app context menus.
- Fixes propagation of changes from a command item to the context menu
item for the primary action.
- Ensures the context menus stay in sync when underlying command items
change.

Details:
- Correctly propagates updates of name, icon, and subtitle from a
command item to its primary command
(`CommandItemViewModel._defaultCommandContextItemViewModel`).
- Correctly propagate updates of command's name to title
(`CommandItem.ctor`).
- Fixes icon loading for application items: `AppCommand` no longer loads
an app icon by default but instead relies on the caller to provide one
(since `AppListItem` also handles icon loading).
- Adds a generic fallback icon for apps when an icon cannot be loaded.
- Updates bindings on context menu items to `OneWay`, ensuring the UI
properly reflects item changes.
- Adds a sample that showcases dynamically updated commands (with cats
and dolphins!) to _Samples → List Page Sample Command_.

⚠️ Toolkit changes:
- `CommandItem` won't capture assigned Command's name as its `Title`.
This will allow it to propagate future changes to `Command.Name`.

Pictures? Moving ones!

e748f31593 CmdPal: Handle DWM cloak failure by keeping window hidden (#42107) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR introduces a workaround for cases where DWM cloaking of the main
window fails.

If the main window cannot be cloaked by DWM, it will remain hidden until
the user explicitly summons it. (Normally, we cloak the window and
immediately display it under DWM's cover of darkness. When cloaking
fails, the windows would be displayed permanently.)

55f0bcc441 CmdPal: Make Bookmarks Great and Fast Again (#41961) 
## Summary of the Pull Request


This PR improves recognition and classification of bookmarks, allowing
CmdPal to recognize almost anything sensible a user can throw at
it—while being forgiving of common input issues (such as unquoted spaces
in paths, etc.).

Extended classification and exploration of edge cases also revealed
limitations in the current implementation, which reloaded all bookmarks
on every change. This caused visible UI lag and could lead to issues
like unintentionally adding the same bookmark multiple times.

### tl;dr

More details below

- Introduces `BookmarkManager` (async saves, thread-safe, immutable,
unique IDs, separate persistence).
- Adds `BookmarkResolver` (classification, Shell-like path/exe
resolution, better icons).
- `BookmarkListItem` now refreshes independently; Name is optional
(Shell fallback).
- Uses Shell API for user-friendly names and paths.  
- Adds `IIconLocator`, protocol icon support, Steam custom icon,
fallback icons and improved `FaviconLoader` (handles redirects). Every
bookmark should now have icon, so we have consistent UI without gaps.
- Refactors placeholders (`IPlaceholderParser`), adds tests, restricts
names to `[a-zA-Z0-9_-]`, excludes GUIDs.
- Reorganizes structure, syncs icons/key chords with AllApps/Indexer.  
- For web and protocol bookmarks URL-encodes placeholder values
- **Performance:** avoids full reloads, improves scalability, reduces UI
lag.
- **Breaking change:** stricter placeholder rules, bookmark command ids.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

### Changes

- **Bookmark Manager**  
  - Introduces a `BookmarkManager` class that:  
    - Holds bookmarks in memory and saves changes asynchronously.  
    - Is safe to operate from multiple threads.  
    - Uses immutable data for transport.  
    - Separates the **persistence model** from in-memory data.  
    - Assigns explicit unique IDs to bookmarks.  
- These IDs also serve as stable top-level command identifiers, enabling
aliases and shortcuts to be bound reliably.

- **Bookmark Resolver**  
- Determines the type of a bookmark (`CommandKind`: file, web link,
command, etc.).
  - Detects its target and parameters.  
- Returns a `Classification` object containing all information needed to
present the bookmark to the user (icon, primary command, context menu
actions, etc.).
- For unquoted local paths, attempts to find the *longest viable
matching path* to a file or executable, automatically handling spaces in
paths (e.g., `C:\Program Files`).
- The resolution of executables from the command line now more closely
matches **Windows Shell** behavior.
    - Users are more likely to get the correct result.  
    - Icons can be determined more reliably.  

- **Bookmark List Items**  
- Each top-level bookmark item (`BookmarkListItem`) is now responsible
for presenting itself.
  - Items refresh their state independently on load or after changes.  
  - The **Name** field is now optional.  
- If no explicit name is provided, a user-friendly fallback name is
computed automatically using the Shell API.
- Context actions are now more in line with **All Apps** and **Indexer**
built-in extensions, matching items, icons, and shortcuts (still a work
in progress).

- **Shell API Integration**  
- Uses the Shell API to provide friendly names and paths for shell or
file system items, keeping the UI aligned with the OS.

- **Protocol and Icon Support**  
  - Adds `IIconLocator` and protocol icon support.  
- Provides a custom icon for **Steam**, since Steam registers its
protocol to an executable not on the path (and the Steam protocol is
expected to be a common case).
  - Adds `FaviconLoader` for web links.  
- Can now follow redirects and retrieve the favicon even if the server
takes the request on a “sightseeing tour.”
- Provides **Fluent Segoe fallback icons** that match the bookmark
classification when no specific icon is available.

- **Refactors and Reorganization**  
  - Extracts `IPlaceholderParser` for testability and reusability.  
- Renames `Bookmarks` → `BookmarksData` to prevent naming collisions.
  - Reorganizes the structure (reducing root-level file clutter).  
  - Synchronizes icons and key chords with AllApps/Indexer.  
- Refactors placeholder parsing logic and **adds tests** to improve
reliability.

- **Misc**
- Correctly URL-encodes placeholder values in Web URL or protocol
bookmarks.

---

### Performance Improvements

- Eliminates full reloads of all bookmarks on every change.  
- Improves scalability when working with a large number of bookmarks.  
- Independent refresh of list items reduces UI lag and improves
responsiveness.
- Asynchronous persistence prevents blocking the UI thread on saves.  

---

### Breaking Changes

- **Placeholders**  
- Placeholder names are now restricted to letters (`a–z`, `A–Z`), digits
(`0–9`), uderscore (`_`), hyphen (`-`).
- GUIDs are explicitly excluded as valid placeholders to prevent
collisions with shell IDs.
- When presented to the user, placeholders are considered
case-insensitive.
- ** Bookmark Top-Level Command
- **Bookmark Top-Level Command**  
  - IDs for bookmark commands are now based on a unique identifier.  
  - This breaks existing bindings to shortcuts and aliases.  
- Newly created bindings will be stable regardless of changes to the
bookmark (name, address, or having placeholders).

c8486087d8 CmdPal: Update visual style of details panel elements (#42102) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR updates the details panel formatting:

- Hides the empty text block used as a separator when the key is empty.
- Makes separators more subtle by adjusting the brush.  
- Reverses the typographical hierarchy of detail key/value items, making
the value dominant and the key more subtle to help users focus on the
content.
- Defines new detail text styles derived from the base WinUI
typographical styles.

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".

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

7b7bae2889 CmdPal: Enable loading local images in MarkdownContent (#41754) 
Add a new image provider for `MarkdownTextBlock` that allows loading
images from additional sources:

- **file scheme**  
  - Enables loading images using the `file:` scheme.  
- Intentionally restricts file URIs to absolute paths to ensure correct
resolution when passed through the CmdPal extension/host boundary. (In
most cases, 3rd-party extensions will provide the paths, but the CmdPal
host performs the actual loading and would otherwise resolve paths
relative to itself.)

- **data scheme**  
- Enables loading images from URIs with the `data:` scheme (both Base64
and URL-encoded forms).
- Note: the Markdown control itself cannot handle large input and may
hang before the code introduced in this PR is invoked.

- **ms-appx scheme**  
  - This scheme is now supported for loading images.  
- However, since the Command Palette host performs the loading,
`ms-appx:` resolution applies to the host and not the extensions, which
limits its usefulness.

- **ms-appdata scheme**  
  - This scheme is now supported for loading images.  
- Similar to `ms-appx:`, resolution applies to the host, not the
extensions, limiting its usefulness.

---

Additionally, this PR introduces the concept of **_image source
hints_**, implemented as query string parameters piggy-backed on the
original URI.
These hints allow users to influence the behavior of images within
Markdown content.

- `--x-cmdpal-fit`
  - `none`: no automatic scaling, provides image as is (default)
  - `fit`: scale to fit the available space
- `--x-cmdpal-upscale`
  - `true`: allow upscaling
  - `false`: downscale only (default)
- `--x-cmdpal-width`: desired width in pixels
- `--x-cmdpal-height`: desired height in pixels
- `--x-cmdpal-maxwidth`: max width in pixels
- `--x-cmdpal-maxheight`: max height in pixels 

--- 

Since `MarkdownTextBlock` requires conforming to the `IImageProvider`
interface—which accepts only a raw URI and must return an `Image`
control—this PR also introduces a new class `RtbInlineImageFactory`.

The factory hooks into the root text block upon loading and listens for
events related to **layout** and **DPI changes**, ensuring that images
adapt correctly to the control’s environment.

```csharp
public interface IImageProvider
{
    Task<Image> GetImage(string url);
    bool ShouldUseThisProvider(string url);
}
```

d07f40eec3 CmdPal go brrrr (performance improvements) (#41959) 
Still a WIP, but here's the deets so far:

## No more throwing canceled tokens

Throwing exceptions is expensive and since we essentially cancel tokens
anytime someone is typing beyond the debounce, we could be throwing
exceptions a ton during search. Since we don't care about those past
executions, now they just `return`.

## Reduced number of apps returned in search

While users can specify how many apps (no limit, 1, 5), if they specify
no limit, we hard limit it at 10. For a few reasons, fuzzy search gets
_really_ fuzzy sometimes and gives answers that users would think is
just plain wrong and they make the response list longer than it needs to
be.

## Fuzzy search: still fuzzy, but faster

Replaced `StringMatcher` class with `FuzzyStringMatcher`.
`FuzzyStringMatcher` is a C# port by @zadjii-msft of the Rust port by
@lhecker for [microsoft/edit](https://github.com/microsoft/edit), which
I believe originally came from [VS
Code](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode). It's a whole fuzzy rabbit
hole. But it's faster than the `StringMatcher` class it replaced.

## Fallbacks, you need to fall back

"In the beginning, fallbacks were created. This had made many people
very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move."

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy jokes aside, fallbacks are one cause of
slower search results. A few modifications have been made to get them
out of the way without reverting their ability to do things dynamically.

1. Fallbacks are no longer scored and will always* appear at the bottom
of the search results
2. In updating their search text, we now use a cancellation token to
stop processing previous searches when a new keypress is recorded.

## * But Calculator & Run are special

So, remember when I said that all fallbacks will not be ranked and
always display at the bottom of the results? Surprise, some will be
ranked and displayed based on that score. Specifically, Calculator and
Run are fallbacks that are whitelisted from the restrictions mentioned
above. They will continue to act as they do today.

We do have the ability to add future fallbacks to that whitelist as
well.

4dab8e1eaa Removing custom SubtleButton-styles (#41900) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

We have migrated `SubtleButtonStyle` to Windows App SDK, so now that we
migrated to 1.8 we no longer need custom implementations and can just
refer to the built-in styles.

This PR:
- Removed custom SubtleButton styles
- Added the style to the pin button in Peek so it's more inline with the
Photos app design

55251607a7 CmdPal: Make Command Palette's main and toast windows tool windows (#41835) 
## Summary of the Pull Request
Replaces the `SetVisibilityInSwitchers` method with `WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW`
style, removing reliance on the fragile `IsShownInSwitchers` property.
Explicitly overrides window corner preference so tool windows keep the
same rounded corners as regular app windows (tool windows otherwise
default to a smaller corner radius, which would change the look).

Benefits:
- Avoids use of the unreliable `IsShownInSwitchers` property, which has
multiple known failure cases.
- Allows window managers to correctly treat Command Palette as a popup
window rather than a normal app window, preventing unwanted tiling, grid
placement, or similar behaviors. This better matches the intended design
of CmdPal as an overlay UI.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Dependency and SDK upgrades:

* Upgraded `Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK` and related packages (Base,
Foundation, WinUI, Runtime, DWrite, InteractiveExperiences, Widgets, AI)
to version 1.8.x in all relevant project files, including
`Directory.Packages.props`, `.vcxproj`, `.csproj`, and `packages.config`
files. This also involved updating import paths and error checks for the
new package structure.

Build and packaging improvements:

* Enhanced the MSIX package selection logic in the build pipeline
(`job-build-project.yml`) to prioritize platform-specific packages
(x64/arm64) and provide clearer logging and error handling when no
packages are found.
* Modified `Microsoft.CmdPal.UI.csproj` to disable Appx bundling and set
a specific test directory for Appx packages during CI builds, improving
build output organization.

These updates help ensure the project stays current with the latest SDKs
and improves reliability and transparency in the build process.

76fb464832 CmdPal: Bind FilterDropDown selection to the current filter and ensure notifications are raised on UI thread (#41808) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR declaratively binds FilterDropDown.SelectedValue to
CurrentFilterId (one-way only; updates in the opposite direction are
handled within the drop-down’s code). It also removes observable
properties and reverts to the UpdateProperty style to ensure property
change notifications are raised on the UI thread, aligning the handling
style with other classes.

## Impact
- Fixed a crash that could occur on pages with filters
- The filter drop-down now correctly syncs with the initially selected
filter when loading a page

## Summary of the Pull Request
While testing the recent GridPages changes #40832 , I noticed that the
`EmptyContent` case was removed from the `SwitchPresenter`, which caused
EmptyContent to stop rendering.

This PR restores the missing case so that `EmptyContent` is correctly
displayed again.

1887c22e87 CmdPal: Did someone say grid pages? (#40832) 
Closes #38269

Still working on this one, but essentially allows a list page to become
a grid page by specifying a `GridProperties` property like so:

```C#
public AllAppsPage()
{
    PlaceholderText = Resources.search_installed_apps_placeholder;
    GridProperties = new MediumGridLayout();
}
```

> This is a very early version and very subject to change. Much to
clean, but feedback & suggestions are welcome.

c87ef438c9 CmdPal: Add URI protocol command to reload extension (#41445) 
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR introduces a new way to reload extensions externally and makes
the feature configurable in the settings UI.

- Adds a new URI protocol command `x-cmdpal://reload` → triggers an
extension reload
- Introduces a new "For Developers" section on the General settings page
- Includes an option to enable/disable the external reload feature
- **Note:** This change depends on the fix in #41344 to work correctly.

347c3f1efa CmdPal: Enhance font icon classification and visuals (#41573) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

- Introduces `FontIconGlyphClassifier` for classifying emojis and
symbols.
- Correctly recognizes multi-codepoint glyphs (e.g., 🧙🏼‍♀️ *woman mage
with medium-light skin tone*).
- Explicitly disallows multi-glyph icons (they would overflow anyway).
- Distinguishes between emojis and regular text characters (letters,
numbers, symbols), since emojis are slightly larger and require
different padding.
- Recognizes Unicode [Variation
Selectors](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variation_Selectors_(Unicode_block))
to enforce specific styles: VS15 (U+FE0E) for text style (monochrome)
and VS16 (U+FE0F) for emoji style (color). This lets developers choose
which variant to display. By default, characters with both
representations render as text/monochrome (e.g., ▶ `\u25B6`):
<img width="428" height="39" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c5e6865f-61de-4f45-9f3a-4e15e5e5ceb8"
/>
- Invalid icons are displayed as a dashed circle so extension developers
can spot issues, without being overly distracting if they slip into
production.

- Updates `IconPathConverter` to use the new classifier for improved
icon handling.
- Adds `SampleIconPage` to demonstrate various icon usages and
classifications.
- Adjusts icon alignment in `IconBox` so icons are centered.  
- Scales negative padding for emojis in `IconBox` with control size,
fixing misalignment and clipping (noticeable in tags and the details
pane hero image).
- Applies negative padding to all font icons. This removes the need for
classification in these cases and ensures symbols rendered below the
baseline remain visible.

3f6b5e4a65 CmdPal: Respect Ignore shortcut in fullscreen mode when using the low-level keyboard hook (#41402) 
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request

Refactors the logic that determines whether to ignore keyboard shortcuts
while in fullscreen mode. The check is now handled in `HandleSummon`,
which centralizes all precondition checks before delegating the actual
summoning to `HandleSummonCore`.

d153f3473a CmdPal: Improve error handling and logging in activation process (#41344) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR makes passing arguments from a new instance to the existing one
more resilient:


- Fixes situations where `x-cmdpal://` links might not work as expected.
Instead of performing the intended action (e.g., `x-cmdpal://background`
or `x-cmdpal://settings`), they could incorrectly just summon the main
window.

- Refactors the `AppInstance.Activated` handler to be synchronous.  
- The handler blocks `AppInstance.RedirectActivationToAsync` in the
caller.
- If it runs asynchronously (or offloads work to another thread,
including the UI thread), the calling instance may exit too soon,
preventing the activation arguments from being read.

- Adds a timeout and ensures the semaphore is always released so the
application can exit gracefully under all conditions.

- Adjusts handling for cases where the source application exits before
passing arguments by lowering the log severity to **Warning** and
providing a clearer, more descriptive message.

7931f14bd5 CmdPal: Prevent cloaking of a visible window when not necessary (#40981) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This change prevents unnecessary cloaking of a visible window when
showing it to the user, significantly reducing flickering. Some minor
flickering remains due to page content refreshes, but it is much less
noticeable.

New windows are now pre-cloaked immediately after creation. Cloaking is
explicitly applied only when an animation is expected (e.g., when
minimized).

Additionally, this change removes explicit window activation, as the
summon mechanism will activate the window as needed.

74b6140911 CmdPal: Make sure fallback items have icons visible in Settings window (#41427) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR ensures that fallback items consistently display an icon in
Settings window:

- Adds a new `InitialIcon` property to `TopLevelViewModel` to store the
first non-empty icon received.
- Uses `InitialIcon` in the extension settings page when listing
fallback items belonging to an extension.
- Sets initial icons in the constructor for fallback items that were not
previously initialized:
  - Date & Time extension  
  - System Commands extension
- The Windows Settings extension had its icon initially set, but it was
cleared when the item was updated for an empty search query. By
persisting the initial icon, subsequent updates no longer affect how the
fallback item is represented in Settings.

This change is considered a hotfix for the current state.  
The ideal long-term solution would be to declare the `DisplayIcon` on
fallback item explicitly, similar to `DisplayTitle`.
