Feb 1, 2026February 2026 monthly work summary for zed-industries/zed. Focused on fixing and hardening file navigation controls and improving cross-buffer behavior. Implemented a global Collapse All Files button across buffers by refactoring the buffer search bar click handler to use the cx.listener pattern, addressing the previous limitation to the current buffer. This change enhances UX consistency and reliability while simplifying future cross-buffer actions. The work was delivered as a single, well-scoped fix (commit fc2d805ac81621cbd4c79e632609d43e7dd717bb) and was accompanied by tests, manual testing, and a self-review addressing security and performance aspects, along with UI checklist alignment and release notes preparation.
