bug: Cmd+A (select all) doesn't work on macOS

[marcinkardas]

Operating system(s)

• Windows
• macOS
• Linux

What happened?

Cmd+A doesn't select text in the chat window. Mouse selection works after workaround (click and drag), but keyboard shortcut Cmd+A has no effect.

Steps to reproduce

Platform: macOS 15.6
Install method: npx howcode

Agent implementation prompt

Investigate why Cmd+A keyboard shortcut doesn't trigger text selection in the chat window on macOS. Check electron keyboard event handling and macOS-specific keybindings.

App version or commit

@IgorWarzocha,
I implemented a fix for this issue and opened a pull request: #288

The change restores native Cmd+A text selection on macOS and adds draggable window regions. I manually verified both behaviors locally.

The PR was automatically closed because my account is not vouched. If the fix looks appropriate, could you please check the PR?

@marcinkardas I opened a fix for this in #292.

It includes the native Electron select-all role, so Cmd+A should work again on macOS. Once the dev build finishes, this should be testable with:

bunx howcode@dev

Could you please test it on your Mac when you get a chance?

Also: I added you to the repo's Vouch list. Thanks for the macOS reports and PR #288. I do not have access to a Mac myself, so I am very happy to accept macOS-related fixes from you going forward.

Closing after backlog triage: this appears to be covered by current code / recently merged work.
