 - `components.footer`: owns `native | starship | hidden` style selection, Footer color source, Footer model label, and every Starship option under `styles.starship` (formats, segments, context thresholds, path, Git, and extension statuses). Native restores Pi's built-in Footer; Hidden installs an empty component with zero rows.

-## Fixed editor (experimental, opt-in)
-
-The fixed layout pins Pi's usable editor cluster at the bottom of the terminal while the transcript scrolls above. It can activate independently of Zentui editor and Footer style; Pi compatibility inspection decides whether it is safe. Hidden contributes zero rows and no spacer. A live Footer style change tears down the compositor, replaces the Footer, and reprobes the new component; reprobe failure leaves ordinary rendering active.
-
-At constrained heights, Zentui reserves one transcript row, keeps a complete Zentui editor frame and cursor, then prioritizes active autocomplete, Footer, below-editor widget, above-editor widget, and status. Editor content crops around the cursor; known autocomplete content crops around its selected item. Native and third-party editors are treated as opaque and are either pinned intact or rendered through Pi's normal layout. If the terminal later grows, fixed layout returns automatically without reinstalling the compositor.

-### How to enable
+## Pi fullscreen mode
 
-```text
-/zentui fixed-editor enable
-```
-
-Or in `~/.pi/agent/zentui.json`:
-
-```json
-{
-	"layout": {
-		"fixedEditor": {
-			"enabled": true
-		}
-	}
-}
-```
-
-### Keyboard controls
-
-| Key | Action |
-| --- | ------ |
-| `PageUp` / `PageDown` | Scroll transcript one viewport up/down; consumed at either boundary while transcript scrolling exists |
-| `Ctrl+Shift+↑` / `Ctrl+Shift+↓` | Scroll transcript up/down (Kitty protocol variants supported) |
-| `Enter` | Jump to bottom (and submit message) |
-
-PageUp/PageDown propagate to Pi when there is no transcript scroll range, while normal-flow fallback is active, or while an overlay owns input.
-
-### Graceful cleanup
-
-Live disable restores the full scroll region, mouse modes, alternate-scroll behavior, autowrap, cursor visibility, and primary screen before Pi repaints its normal layout. Pi lifecycle shutdown (`/quit`, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+D, SIGHUP, and SIGTERM) performs the same reset without a late repaint into the caller's shell. Cleanup after `SIGKILL`, a fatal crash that prevents Pi's shutdown callback, terminal disconnect, or failure of both terminal writers cannot be guaranteed.
-
-### Mouse scroll (default on)
-
-Mouse wheel scrolling is enabled by default when the fixed editor is on. Disable it from the `/zentui` **Layout** section or:
+Pi 0.84 introduces a native fullscreen TUI with a sticky editor and Footer plus an independently scrollable transcript. Enable it in Pi's `~/.pi/agent/settings.json`:
 
 ```json
 {
-	"layout": {
-		"fixedEditor": {
-			"enabled": true,
-			"mouseScroll": false
-		}
-	}
+	"tuiMode": "fullscreen"
 }
 ```
 
-**Warning**: Mouse scroll enables SGR mouse reporting, which disables native terminal text selection, URL click-through, and tmux/Herdr scrollback for the Pi session. Toggle off if you need those features.
-
-### Conflicts and limitations
-
-- **Incompatible with** `pi-powerline-footer`, `@tifan/pi-fixed-editor`, and `pi-sticky-input`. These packages patch the same Pi TUI internals; only one rendering owner can be active at a time.
-- **Alternate screen**: Uses the terminal's alternate screen buffer. Native scrollback history is not accessible while the fixed editor is active.
-- **Pi version fragility**: Patches internal TUI methods (`doRender`, `render`, `terminal.write`, `terminal.rows`) that may change across Pi versions. If the TUI layout is unsupported, Zentui falls back to normal rendering with a console warning.
-- Pi has no Footer getter or Footer-change event. Zentui observes normal third-party takeover through Pi's custom-component disposal callback and will not restore Native afterward. Direct internal mutation, a future Pi version that stops disposing replaced components, and automatic fixed-layout reprobe after third-party replacement cannot be detected.
-- If your terminal is stuck after a crash, run `reset` or restart the terminal.
+You can also select fullscreen from Pi's `/settings` UI or start Pi with `--tui-mode fullscreen`. Zentui does not enable fullscreen automatically: Pi owns terminal layout, scrolling, and sticky placement, while Zentui supplies the configured editor and Footer components. Pi 0.80.3–0.83 remain supported for Zentui styling, without native sticky placement.
