impl Mode for MagitDiffMode

fn implies(&self) -> &[ModeId]

MG.RO: read-only-mode is where the gate actually is.

ReadOnly = true above stops TYPING and nothing else. It is read by read_only_edit_rejected, which guards the insert-mode char path; operators never reach it, because a Document’s grammar dispatch applies its own edits and hands the host an already-applied Effect::Edits. x deleted a character out of *magit:status* while the buffer reported itself read-only — worse than not gating at all, because it looks protected.

read-only-mode carries the option AND the invocation_runner (Editor::run_read_only_motion) that refuses mutating operators while letting motions, : and / through.

Declared per MAJOR rather than once on magit-core-mode: an implied mode is followed from the mode being ACTIVATED, and the majors are what the host activates. Putting it on the shared minor looked right and was verified not to fire.

fn action_handlers(&self) -> Vec<ActionHandlerContribution>

MG.13: boot-registered — see buffer_state’s module docs. gr, s and u are NOT here: they are shared actions owned by magit-core-mode and reached through this mode’s MagitView.

type Guard = BufferStateGuard<DiffState>

Owned cleanup token returned by [Self::on_activate].

fn id(&self) -> ModeId

Canonical identity. Same value every call.

fn kind(&self) -> ModeKind

Major or minor. Read at registration and on every activation call (activate_major on a minor, or vice versa, is [ModeActivationError::WrongKind]).

fn target_buffer_kind(&self) -> Option<BufferKind>

For major modes, the [BufferKind] this mode is the default major for (H.2, 2026-05-31). ModeRegistry::register indexes this so ModeRegistry::find_major_for_kind can dispatch buffer-creation events to the right major without host-side match BufferKind { ... } blocks.

fn options(&self) -> OptionOverrideSet

Option overrides this mode contributes. Pure declarative (same return value every call); the host merges these into the buffer’s option-resolution layer stack while the mode is active, at the mode’s layer (later-activated minors win ties), and drops them on deactivation. Build with lattice_config::overrides! { lattice_config::Wrap = true, … }.

fn required_capabilities(&self) -> CapabilitySet

Capabilities the mode requires. Validated at activation; missing capability ⇒ [ModeActivationError::MissingCapability], never silent skip.

fn keymap(&self) -> Keymap

Keymap chord → command additions / overrides.

fn on_activate(&self, ctx: ModeContext) -> LifecycleFuture<'_, Self::Guard>

Lifecycle. Called once per (buffer, activation) cycle after the registry has applied the declarative contributions. Returns an owned Guard carrying every resource the mode allocated. The dispatcher stashes the Guard until deactivation, at which point dropping it performs cleanup via the Guard’s Drop impl.

fn target_language(&self) -> Option<&str>

For major modes, the language this mode is the default major for, by canonical name (Lang::name() — "rust", "org") (OM.1). The peer of target_buffer_kind for the dispatch path [BufferKind::Document] takes: language detection rather than kind dispatch.

fn decorations(&self) -> Vec<DecorationProvider>

Decoration providers (gutter / inline / overlay / statusline). Stub — reserved for the WIT plugin path (M.10).

fn gutter_decorations(&self, _ctx: &DecorationCtx<'_>) -> Vec<GutterDecoration>

Gutter sign decorations this mode contributes while active. Called once per pane per frame with a [DecorationCtx] carrying relevant render-state snapshots (diff sign map, LSP diagnostics arc). Returns per-line GutterDecoration values; the renderer partitions them by variant into the appropriate gutter column. Default: empty (no contribution).

fn completion_sources(&self) -> Vec<CompletionSourceContribution>

Insert-mode completion sources this mode contributes while active on a buffer. Empty by default; minors that own a completion source (lsp-completion-mode, snippet-completion-mode, buffer-words-mode, tree-sitter-completion-mode, path-completion-mode, plugin sources) override.

fn conflicts_with(&self) -> &[ModeId]

Modes this one cannot be active alongside.

fn presents_extensions(&self) -> &[&'static str]

File extensions (lowercase, no dot) this major PRESENTS rather than edits — the file is never loaded as text.

fn mirrors_option(&self) -> Option<&'static str>

Declarative mirror hint for “this mode is the on/off switch for a typed option of the same observable state”. Some(canonical_name) ⇒ a host-driven cascade keeps the mode’s active state and the option’s value in sync.

fn invocation_runner(&self) -> Option<ModeId>

Invocation-runner discovery (2026-05-26). Modes that own command-invocation dispatch for their buffer kind (terminal-mode, oil-mode, file-tree-mode, help-mode, …) return their canonical [ModeId]; the host registers a runner function under that id at boot, and Editor::run_invocation looks it up by walking the active modes on the active pane’s buffer (minors first, then major) before falling back to the central grammar Action gate.

fn refresh_action(&self) -> Option<&'static str>

Which of this mode’s own actions refreshes its view, or None (the default) when the mode backs nothing refreshable (RV.1, 2026-08-10).

fn fold_toggle_action(&self) -> Option<&'static str>

Which of this mode’s actions <Tab> fires, and the declaration that pulls in foldable-view-mode — the shared minor owning the chord.

fn refresh_on_open(&self) -> bool

Should re-opening this view re-run its refresh?

fn activation_policy(&self) -> ActivationPolicy

A minor mode’s default auto-activation policy (MA.1; mode-architecture.md §7.4). The host’s minor-activation resolver reads this for every registered minor when a buffer enters a major mode, and activates those whose policy admits the entered major. The default is [ActivationPolicy::Manual] — auto-activate nowhere until the mode or the user opts in. Ignored for major modes (a buffer’s major is chosen by the major resolver, not this allowlist).

fn editable_tail(&self) -> Option<EditableTail>

The mode’s editable tail on an otherwise read-only buffer, or None (the default) for a fully read-only / fully writable buffer (AU‑3).
