+# PowerToys – Copilot guide (concise)
+
+This is the top-level guide for AI changes. Keep edits small, follow existing patterns, and cite exact paths in PRs.
+
+Repo map (1‑line per area)
+- Core apps: `src/runner/**` (tray/loader), `src/settings-ui/**` (Settings app)
+- Shared libs: `src/common/**`
+- Modules: `src/modules/*` (one per utility; Command Palette in `src/modules/cmdpal/**`)
+- Build tools/docs: `tools/**`, `doc/devdocs/**`
+
+Build and test (defaults)
+- Prerequisites: Visual Studio 2022 17.4+, minimal Windows 10 1803+.
+- Build discipline:
+  - One terminal per operation (build → test). Don’t switch/open new ones mid-flow.
+  - After making changes, `cd` to the project folder that changed (`.csproj`/`.vcxproj`).
+  - Use script(s) to build, synchronously block and wait in foreground for it to finish: `tools/build/build.ps1|.cmd` (current folder), `build-essentials.*` (once per brand new build for missing nuget packages)
+  - Treat build **exit code 0** as success; any non-zero exit code is a failure, have Copilot read the errors log in the build folder (e.g., `build.*.*.errors.log`) and surface problems.
+  - Don’t start tests or launch Runner until the previous step succeeded.
+- Tests (fast + targeted):
+  - Find the test project by product code prefix (e.g., FancyZones, AdvancedPaste). Look for a sibling folder or 1–2 levels up named like `<Product>*UnitTests` or `<Product>*UITests`.
+  - Build the test project, wait for **exit**, then run only those tests via VS Test Explorer or `vstest.console.exe` with filters. Avoid `dotnet test` in this repo.
+  - Add/adjust tests when changing behavior; if skipped, state why (e.g., comment-only, string rename).
+
+Pull requests (expectations)
+- Atomic: one logical change; no drive‑by refactors.
+- Describe: problem / approach / risk / test evidence.
+- List: touched paths if not obvious.
+
+When to ask for clarification
+- Ambiguous spec after scanning relevant docs (see below).
+- Cross-module impact (shared enum/struct) not clear.
+- Security / elevation / installer changes.
+
+Logging (use existing stacks)
+- C++: `src/common/logger/**` (`Logger::info|warn|error|debug`). Keep hot paths quiet (hooks, tight loops).
+- C#: `ManagedCommon.Logger` (`LogInfo|LogWarning|LogError|LogDebug|LogTrace`). Some UIs use injected `ILogger` via `LoggerInstance.Logger`.
+
+Docs to consult
+- `tools/build/BUILD-GUIDELINES.md`
+- `doc/devdocs/core/architecture.md`, `doc/devdocs/core/runner.md`, `doc/devdocs/core/settings/readme.md`, `doc/devdocs/modules/readme.md`
+
+Done checklist (self review before finishing)
+- Build clean? Tests updated/passed? No unintended formatting? Any new dependency? Documented skips?

-## Third-Party Run Plugins
+## ✨ What's new
+**Version 0.94 (September 2025)**

-There is a collection of [third-party plugins](./doc/thirdPartyRunPlugins.md) created by the community that aren't distributed with PowerToys.
+For an in-depth look at the latest changes, visit the [Windows Command Line blog](https://aka.ms/powertoys-releaseblog).
+
+**✨ Highlights**
+
+ - PowerToys Settings added a Settings search with fuzzy matching, suggestions, a results page, and UX polish to make finding options faster.
+ - A comprehensive hotkey conflict detection system was introduced in Settings to surface and help resolve conflicting shortcuts. Note that the default hotkey settings (Win+Ctrl+Shift+T, Win+Ctrl+V, Win+Ctrl+T, Win+Shift+T) may overlap with existing Windows system shortcuts. This is expected. You can resolve the conflict by assigning different hotkeys.
+ - Mouse Utilities added a “Gliding cursor” accessibility feature to Mouse Pointer Crosshairs for single‑button cursor movement and clicking. Thanks [@mikehall-ms](https://github.com/mikehall-ms)!
+ - The installer was upgraded to WiX 5 after WiX 3 reached end-of-life; this move improved installer security, reliability, and community support.
+ - Tons of bug fixes and improvements for Command Palette, including visual updates and new support for filters on ListPages (handy for extension developers).
+ - Hosts Editor now has a “No leading spaces” option so active host entries can start at column 0 even if others are disabled. Thanks [@mohammed-saalim](https://github.com/mohammed-saalim)!

+# Shortcut Conflict Detection
+
+Steps to enable conflict detection for a hotkey:
+
+### 1. Implement module interface for hotkeys
+Ensure the module interface provides either `size_t get_hotkeys(Hotkey* hotkeys, size_t buffer_size)` or `std::optional<HotkeyEx> GetHotkeyEx()`.
+
+- If not yet implemented, you need to add it so that it returns all hotkeys used by the module.
+- **Important**: The order of the returned hotkeys matters. This order is used as an index to uniquely identify each hotkey for conflict detection and lookup.
+- For reference, see: `src/modules/AdvancedPaste/AdvancedPasteModuleInterface/dllmain.cpp`
+
+### 2. Implement IHotkeyConfig in the module settings (UI side)
+Make sure the module’s settings file inherits from `IHotkeyConfig` and implements `HotkeyAccessor[] GetAllHotkeyAccessors()`.
+
+- This method should return all hotkeys used in the module.
+- **Important**: The order of the returned hotkeys must be consistent with step 1 (`get_hotkeys()` or `GetHotkeyEx()`).
+- For reference, see: `src/settings-ui/Settings.UI.Library/AdvancedPasteSettings.cs`
+- **_Note:_** `HotkeyAccessor` is a wrapper around HotkeySettings. 
+It provides both `getter` and `setter` methods to read and update the corresponding hotkey.
+Additionally, each `HotkeyAccessor` requires a resource string that describes the purpose of the hotkey.
+This string is typically defined in: `src/settings-ui/Settings.UI/Strings/en-us/Resources.resw`
+
+### 3. Update the module’s ViewModel
+The corresponding ViewModel should inherit from `PageViewModelBase` and implement `Dictionary<string, HotkeySettings[]> GetAllHotkeySettings()`.
+
+- This method should return all hotkeys, maintaining the same order as in steps 1 and 2.
+- For reference, see: `src/settings-ui/Settings.UI/ViewModels/AdvancedPasteViewModel.cs`
+
+### 4. Ensure the module’s Views call `OnPageLoaded()`
+Once the module’s view is loaded, make sure to invoke the ViewModel’s `OnPageLoaded()` method:
+```cs
+Loaded += (s, e) => ViewModel.OnPageLoaded();
+```
+- For reference, see: `src/settings-ui/Settings.UI/SettingsXAML/Views/AdvancedPaste.xaml.cs`

+## Developing PowerToys with Visual Studio Code
+
+This guide shows how to build, debug, and contribute to PowerToys using VS Code instead of (or alongside) full Visual Studio. It focuses on common inner‑loop tasks for C++, .NET, and mixed scenarios present in the solution.
+
+> PowerToys is a large mixed C++ / C# / WinAppSDK solution. VS Code works well for incremental development and quick module iterations, but occasionally you may still prefer full Visual Studio for designer tooling or specialized diagnostics.
+
+---
+VS Code extensions Needed:
+
+| Area | Extension | Notes |
+|------|-----------|-------|
+| C++ | ms-vscode.cpptools | IntelliSense, debugging (cppvsdbg) |
+| C# | ms-dotnettools.csdevkit (or C#) | Language service / test explorer |
+
+---
+
+## Building in VS Code
+### Configure developer powershell for vs2022 for more convenient dev in vscode.
+1. Configure profile in in settings, entry:  "terminal.integrated.profiles.windows"
+2. Add below config as entry:
+```json
+    "Developer PowerShell for VS 2022": {
+		// Configure based on your preference
+        "path": "C:\\Program Files\\WindowsApps\\Microsoft.PowerShell_7.5.2.0_arm64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\\pwsh.exe",
+        "args": [
+            "-NoExit",
+            "-Command",
+            "& {",
+            "$orig = Get-Location;",
+            // Configure based on your environment
+            "& 'C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\2022\\Enterprise\\Common7\\Tools\\Launch-VsDevShell.ps1';",
+            "Set-Location $orig",
+            "}"
+        ]
+    },
+```
+3. [Optional] Set Developer PowerShell for VS 2022 as your default profile, so that you can get a deep integration with vscode coding agent. 
+
+4. Now You can build with plain `msbuild` or configure tasks.json in below section
+Or reach out to "tools\build\BUILD-GUIDELINES.md"
+
+### Sample plain msbuild command
+```powershell
+# Restore:
+msbuild powertoys.sln -t:restore -p:configuration=debug -p:platform=x64 -m
+
+# Build powertoys sln
+msbuild powertoys.sln -p:configuration=debug -p:platform=x64 -m
+
+# dotnet project
+msbuild src\settings-ui\Settings.UI\PowerToys.Settings.csproj -p:Platform=x64 -p:Configuration=Debug -m
+
+# native project
+msbuild "src\modules\MouseUtils\FindMyMouse\FindMyMouse.vcxproj" -p:Configuration=Debug -p:Platform=x64 -m
+```
+
+---
+
+## Debugging
+
+### Existing launch configuration
+
+The repo provides `.vscode/launch.json` with:
+
+- `Run PowerToys.exe (no build)`: Launches the already-built executable at `x64/Debug/PowerToys.exe` using `cppvsdbg`.
+
+Build first, then press F5. To switch configuration (Release / ARM64) either edit the path or create additional launch entries.
+
+### Attaching to a running instance
+
+If PowerToys is already running, you can attach to that process:
+
+2. VS Code command palette: “C/C++: (Windows) Attach to Process”.
+3. Filter for `PowerToys.exe` / module-specific processes.
+
+### Debugging managed components
+
+Many modules have a managed component loaded into the PowerToys process. `cppvsdbg` can debug mixed mode, but if you need richer .NET inspection you can create a second configuration using `type: coreclr` and `processId` attachment after the native launch, or just attach separately:
+
+Similar for attach to managed code.
+> Note: In arm64 machine, can only debug arm64 code.
+
+```jsonc
+{
+    "version": "0.2.0",
+    "configurations": [
+        {
+            "name": "Run native executable (no build)",

+## 6. Common tasks & tips
+
+| Task | Command / Action | Notes |
+|------|------------------|-------|
+| Clean | `git clean -xdf` (careful) or `msbuild /t:Clean PowerToys.sln` | Deep clean removes packages & build outputs |
+| Rebuild single project | `msbuild path\to\proj.vcxproj /t:Rebuild -p:Platform=x64 -p:Configuration=Debug` | Faster than whole solution |
+| Generate installer (rare in inner loop) | See `tools\build\build-installer.ps1` | Usually not needed for local debug |
+| Resource conversion errors | Re-run restore + build | Triggers custom PowerShell targets |

+# PowerToys Settings – Search Index (Hard-sealed)
+
+## 1. What to index
+
+This section describes the current structure of the settings pages in PowerToys. All user-facing settings are contained in the content of <controls:SettingsPageControl>. The logical and visual structure of settings follows a nested layout as shown below:
+
+```css
+SettingsPageControl
+ └─ SettingsGroup
+     └─ [SettingsExpander]
+         └─ SettingsCard
+```
+* Each SettingsGroup defines a functional section within a settings page.
+
+* An optional SettingsExpander may be used to further organize related settings inside a group.
+
+* Each actual setting is represented by a SettingsCard, which contains one user-tweakable control or a group of closely related controls.
+
+>Note: Not all SettingsCard are necessarily wrapped in a SettingsExpander; they can exist directly under a SettingsGroup. 
+
+> For indexing purposes, we are specifically targeting all SettingsCard elements. These are the smallest units of user interaction and correspond to individual configurable settings.
+
+> There could be setting item in expander, so we also need to index expander items as well.
+
+### Module
+Module is a primary type that needs to be indexed, for modules, we need to index the 'ModuleTitle' and the 'ModuleDescription'. 
+So these two should be passed in by x:Uid and binding with a key. 
+
+
+### SettingsCard/SettingsExpander
+
+Each SettingsCard/SettingsExpander should have an x:Uid for localization and indexing. The associated display strings are defined in the .resw files:
+
+{x:Uid}.Header – The visible label/title of the setting.
+{x:Uid}.Description – (optional) The tooltip or explanatory text.
+
+The index should be built around these SettingsCard elements and their x:Uid-bound resources, as they represent the actual settings users will search for.
+
+---
+
+## 2. How to Navigate
+
+### Entry
+```csharp
+enum EntryType
+{
+    SettingsPage,
+    SettingsCard,
+    SettingsExpander,
+}
+
+public class SearchableElementMetadata
+{
+    public string PageName { get; set; }    // Used to navigate to a specific page
+    public EntryType Type { get; set; }     // Used to know how should we navigate(As a page, a settingscard or an expander?)
+    public string ParentElementName { get; set; }
+    public string ElementName { get; set; }
+    public string ElementUid { get; set; }
+    public string Icon { get; set; }
+}
+```
+
+### Navigation
+The steps for navigate to an item:
+* Navigate among pages
+* [optional] Expand the expander if setting entry is inside an expander
+* [optional] Navigate within page
+
+> Use page name for navigation:
+```csharp
+Type GetPageTypeFromPageName(string PageName)
+{
+    var assembly = typeof(GeneralPage).Assembly;
+    return assembly.GetType($"Microsoft.PowerToys.Settings.UI.Views.{PageName}");
+}
+
+NavigationService.Navigate(PageType, ElementName，ParentElementName);
+```
+
+> Use ElementName and ParentElementName for in page navigation:
+```csharp
+Page.OnNavigateTo(ElementName， ParentElementName){
+    var element = this.FindName(name) as FrameworkElement;
+    var parentElement = this.FindName(ParentElementName) as FrameworkElement;
+
+    if(parentElement) {
+        expander = (Expander)parentElement;
+        if(expander){
+            expander.Expand();
+        }
+
+        // https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/uwp/api/windows.ui.xaml.uielement.startbringintoview?view=winrt-26100        
+        element.StartBringIntoView();
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## 3. Runtime Search
+When user start typing for an entry, e.g. shortcut or 快捷键(cn version of shortcut),
+we need to go through all the entries to see if an entry matches the search text.
+
+A naive approach will be try to match all the localized text one by one and see if they match.
+Total entry is within thousand(To fill in an exact number), performance is acceptable now.
+```csharp
+// Match
+query = UserInput();
+matched = {};
+
+indexes = BuildIndex();
+
+foreach(var entry in indexes) {
+    if(entry.Match(query)) {
+        matched.Add(entry);
+    }
+}
+```
+
+And we don't intend to introduce complexity on the match algorithm discussion, so let's use powertoys FuzzMatch impl for now.
+```csharp
+MatchResult Match(this Entry entry, string query) {
+    return FuzzMatch(entry.DisplayedText, query);
+}
+
+struct MatchResult{
+    int Score;
+    bool Result;
+}
+```
+
+## 4. Search Result Page
+![search result page](./search-result.png)
+After we got matched items, map these items to a search result page according to spec.
+```c#
+ObservableCollection<SettingEntry> ModuleResult;
+ObservableCollection<SettingsGroup> GroupedSettingsResults;
+
+public class SettingsGroup : INotifyPropertyChanged
+{
+    private string _groupName;
+    private ObservableCollection<SettingEntry> _settings;
+    public string GroupName
+    {
+        get => _groupName;
+        set
+        {
+            _groupName = value;
+            OnPropertyChanged();
+        }
+    }
+    public ObservableCollection<SettingEntry> Settings
+    {
+        get => _settings;
+        set
+        {
+            _settings = value;
+            OnPropertyChanged();
+        }
+    }
+    public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
+    protected virtual void OnPropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string propertyName = null)
+    {
+        PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## 5. How to do Index
+### Runtime index or build time index?
+Now We need to build all the entries in our settings.
+
+Most of the entry properties are static, and in runtime, the `SettingsCard` is compiled into native winUI3 controls <small>(I suppose, please correct here if it's wrong)</small>, it's hard to locate all the `SettingsCard`, and performance is terrible if we do search for all the pages' elements.
+
+### Build time indexing
+We can rely on xaml file parsing to get all the SettingsCard Entries. 
+And we don't want xaml file to be brought into production bundle.
+Use a project for parsing and bring that index file into production bundle is a solution.
+```csproj
+  <Target Name="GenerateSearchIndex" BeforeTargets="BeforeBuild">
+    <PropertyGroup>
+      <BuilderExe>$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)\..\Settings.UI.XamlIndexBuilder\bin\$(Configuration)\net8.0\XamlIndexBuilder.exe</BuilderExe>
+      <XamlDir>$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)\Views</XamlDir>
+      <GeneratedJson>$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)\Services\searchable_elements.json</GeneratedJson>
+    </PropertyGroup>
+    <Exec Command="&quot;$(BuilderExe)&quot; &quot;$(XamlDir)&quot; &quot;$(GeneratedJson)&quot;" />
+  </Target>
+```
+```csharp
+for(xamlFile in xamlFiles){
+    var doc = Load(xamlFile);
+    var elements = doc.Descendants();
+
+    foreach(var element in elements){
+        if(element.Name == "SettingsCard") {
+            var entry = new Entry{
+                ElementName = element.Attribute["Name"],
+                PageName = FileName,
+                Type = "SettingsCard",
+                ElementUid = element.Attribute["Uid"],
+                DisplayedText = "",
+            }
+
+            var parent = element.GetParent();
+            if(parent.Name == "SettingsExpander"){
+                entry.ParentElementName = parent.Attribute["Name"];
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+Runtime index loading:
+```
+var entries = LoadEntriesFromFile();
+foreach(var entry in entries){
+    entry.DisplayedText = ResourceLoader.GetString(entry.Uid);
+}
+```
+So now we have all the entries and entry properties.

+## 6. Corner cases - that have not addressed yet
+
+1. CmdPal page is not in scope of this effort, that needs additional effort&design to launch and search within cmdpal settings page.
+
+2. Go back button
+
+3. Dynamic constructed settings page
