Make title-focused WebFetch prompts prefer the real HTML <title> value when present instead of always falling back to the first rendered text line. Keep the behavior narrow and preserve the existing summary path for non-title prompts.\n\nConstraint: Must not touch unrelated dirty api files in this worktree\nConstraint: Keep the change limited to rust/crates/tools\nRejected: Broader HTML parsing dependency | not needed for this small parity slice\nConfidence: high\nScope-risk: narrow\nReversibility: clean\nDirective: Preserve lightweight HTML handling unless parity requires a materially more robust parser\nTested: cargo test -p tools\nNot-tested: malformed HTML with mixed-case or nested title edge cases
Rust port foundation
This directory contains the first compatibility-first Rust foundation for a drop-in Claude Code CLI replacement.
Current milestone
This initial milestone focuses on harness-first scaffolding, not full feature parity:
- a Cargo workspace aligned to major upstream seams
- a placeholder CLI crate (
rusty-claude-cli) - runtime, command, and tool registry skeleton crates
- a
compat-harnesscrate that reads the upstream TypeScript sources in../src/ - tests that prove upstream manifests/bootstrap hints can be extracted from the leaked TypeScript codebase

How to use
From this directory:
cargo fmt --all
cargo check --workspace
cargo test --workspace
cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- --help
cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- dump-manifests
cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- bootstrap-plan
Design notes
The shape follows the PRD's harness-first recommendation:
- Extract observable upstream command/tool/bootstrap facts first.
- Keep Rust module boundaries recognizable.
- Grow runtime compatibility behind proof artifacts.
- Document explicit gaps instead of implying drop-in parity too early.
Relationship to the root README
The repository root README explains the leaked TypeScript codebase. This document tracks the Rust replacement effort that lives in rust/.
