Summary

Tab colors were undocumented, and the 2026.08.13 release added a customizable action to cycle the active tab's color. This adds a Tab colors section to the Tabs page covering both.

Found by the missing_docs drift-watch audit (changelog item: "Added a customizable action to cycle the active tab color from a keybinding or the Command Palette").

Changes

  • How to set and clear a tab's color from the tab context menu.
  • What happens when the tab belongs to a group (the group's color changes, so all its tabs change together).
  • The Cycle current tab color action (workspace:cycle_active_tab_color), which has no default shortcut and is reachable from the Command Palette or a custom keybinding.
  • A pointer to the directory_tab_colors setting for automatic per-directory colors.

Verification

  • Action name and label from app/src/workspace/mod.rs; behavior (group-aware cycling, wrap back to no color) from app/src/workspace/view.rs; the context-menu color row, including its "Default (no color)" entry and toggle-off behavior, from app/src/tab.rs.
  • npm run build passes; style_lint --changed reports no new issues.

Deferred findings from this audit run

  • Remaining 2026.08.13 changelog items reviewed and judged already covered or not doc-worthy: /connect-grok (already in agents/cli/models-and-usage.mdx), repository-qualified skill references (already in the CLI reference), new shell completions (vagrant, openssl, yc, journalctl) and the run-platform icon, which have no per-item doc surface.
  • 44 Factory REST endpoints absent from the released OpenAPI spec are mapped internal in the companion bookkeeping PR.
  • 30 low-severity terminology/staleness findings are owned by the style_lint skill.

Documents setting a tab's color from the tab context menu, how colors
behave for tabs inside a group, and the new customizable
`workspace:cycle_active_tab_color` action shipped in 2026.08.13.
