…ternal URL links in the terminal now open on plain click in the in-app browser, and shift-click opens the system browser. v2: change the default urlLinks tier map to plain=pane, shift=external, meta=newTab, metaShift=external. healV2UserPreferences migrates stored rows still on either retired default; customized maps are untouched. v1: drop the cmd/ctrl gate in the terminal URL handler — plain click uses the in-app handler (openLinksInApp setting) with system-browser fallback, shift-click always opens the system browser. TerminalLinkManager now skips unmodified-click activation while text is selected: xterm activates when mousedown and mouseup hit the same link, so double-click word-select (which previously also fired activation twice) and intra-link drags no longer open the link. Modifier clicks still activate — shift-click extends a selection as a side effect and would otherwise be unreachable. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01W1jBRSrUHFuSnmtS7VjVRh
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughTerminal link activation now respects text selection and modifier clicks. URL-link defaults and migration healing are updated. Terminal URL clicks now use configured routing without requiring Ctrl or Meta. ChangesTerminal links and URL preferences
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR changes terminal link activation and preference migration, but malformed stored link settings can still fail to heal safely and Alt-click can be blocked while text is selected. These bounded correctness issues should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Allow Alt-click activation while selection is active.
Line 114 does not check event.altKey. With an active selection, an Alt-click returns before the file or URL callback. Add !event.altKey so all modifier clicks remain active.

Guard isCompleteLinkTierMap against non-object values.
For { urlLinks: "invalid" }, healV2UserPreferences passes the truthy primitive to isCompleteLinkTierMap; "plain" in value then throws. The read-heal wrapper drops the preference row instead of returning defaults. Accept unknown, return false for non-objects, and add a regression test.

Summary
URL links in the terminal now open on plain click in the in-app browser, and shift-click opens the system browser.
urlLinkstier map — plain → in-app browser, shift → default browser, ⌘ → new in-app tab, ⌘⇧ → default browser.healV2UserPreferencesmigrates stored rows still on either retired default (original shared map, or the plain-unbound/shift-newTab generation); customized maps are untouched. Hover tooltips, click hints, and Settings → Links all follow the map, so no copy changes needed.TerminalLinkManager, shared by v1 + v2, covers URL, file, OSC 8, and word links): xterm activates a link whenever mousedown and mouseup hit the same link, so with plain click bound, double-clicking a URL to select it would have opened it — twice. Unmodified clicks that end with text selected (double-click word-select, intra-link drag) no longer activate. Modifier clicks still activate, since shift-click extends a selection as a side effect and would otherwise be unreachable.Test Plan
