sudacode e58f56b46f Fix Yomitan popup shortcut precedence in keyboard-only mode
- In keyboard-driven mode, popup keys (e.g. `j`/`k`) now forward to the Yomitan popup instead of firing configured session bindings like `cycle sid`
- Non-keyboard-only mode behavior is unchanged
- Add regression test covering the `KeyJ`/`cycle sid` conflict

Description

When keyboard-only mode is active and a Yomitan popup is visible, popup keyboard controls must win over overlay/mpv/session keybindings. Currently default overlay bindings such as bare j can fire instead of scrolling/navigating the Yomitan popup.

Acceptance Criteria

  • #1 With keyboard-only mode active and a Yomitan popup visible, pressing j/k forwards to the Yomitan popup instead of dispatching default session bindings such as primary subtitle track cycling.
  • #2 With keyboard-only mode inactive, existing popup-visible session binding behavior remains unchanged for bound keys.
  • #3 Regression coverage captures the keyboard-only popup precedence behavior.

Implementation Plan

  1. Add a focused regression in src/renderer/handlers/keyboard.test.ts: keyboard-only mode + visible Yomitan popup + bare KeyJ session binding should forward KeyJ to the popup and not dispatch the mpv/session binding.
  2. Verify the new test fails before production changes.
  3. Patch src/renderer/handlers/keyboard.ts so popup key handling ignores session-binding precedence only while keyboard-driven mode is enabled.
  4. Run targeted renderer keyboard tests, then update acceptance criteria and final notes.

Implementation Notes

Implementation: handleYomitanPopupKeybind now only lets configured session bindings take precedence when keyboard-driven mode is not enabled. In keyboard-only mode with a visible Yomitan popup, bare popup keys such as KeyJ forward to the popup instead of dispatching overlay/mpv keybindings. Added a regression covering KeyJ bound to cycle sid.

Verification: targeted test failed before the production change, then passed after the fix. Full local gates run: bun test src/renderer/handlers/keyboard.test.ts --test-name-pattern "keyboard mode: popup keybinds take precedence", bun test src/renderer/handlers/keyboard.test.ts, bun run changelog:lint, bun run typecheck, bun run test:fast, bun run test:env, bun run build, bun run test:smoke:dist. Build initially required bun install --frozen-lockfile, submodule init, and stats/ locked deps install because this worktree had no dependencies/submodules checked out.

Final Summary

Fixed keyboard-only Yomitan popup shortcut precedence by allowing popup key forwarding to bypass configured session bindings only while keyboard-driven mode is active. This makes popup controls such as j/k win over default overlay/mpv bindings like primary subtitle track cycling, while preserving existing non-keyboard-only popup behavior where configured bindings still fire.

Added renderer keyboard regression coverage for the reported KeyJ/cycle sid conflict and added a changelog fragment for the user-visible overlay fix.

Verification passed: targeted red/green regression, full renderer keyboard test file, changelog lint, typecheck, test:fast, test:env, build, and dist smoke tests.
