fix(web): make Escape return from PRs and Usage pages by extoci · Pull Request #10399 · pingdotgg/t3code

extoci · 2026-09-06T20:28:45Z

Escape already returned to the previous route from Settings, but Pull Requests and Usage had no equivalent route-level handler. This makes the behavior shared across Settings, Pull Requests, and Usage. An unhandled Escape uses browser history and falls back to the threads route. Dialogs, popovers, and focused controls still consume Escape first.

Closes #10388

Verification

UsagePage focused tests pass.
Web typecheck passes.
Targeted lint, formatting, and diff checks pass.
Isolated browser verification:
- Usage -> Escape returns to the previous draft thread.
- Pull Requests -> Escape returns to the previous draft thread.
- Usage environment and Pull Request Filters popovers consume the first Escape; the second returns to the thread.

Implemented with GPT-6 Astra in Codex.

Summary by CodeRabbit

New Features
- Pressing Escape navigates back from the Pull Requests, Settings, and Usage pages.
- The active field is unfocused before navigation, with a fallback to the home page when no history is available.
- In Pull Request search, pressing Escape unfocuses the field and clears the search when it contains text.
- Escape handling respects text composition and repeated key presses.
Refactor
- Escape-key navigation behavior is now shared consistently across supported pages.

Note

Add `useEscapeToGoBack` hook and apply to PRs, Usage, and Settings pages

Adds a reusable useEscapeToGoBack hook that listens at the window level for eligible Escape presses, blurs the active element, and navigates back in history or to the root route when no history exists
Applies the hook to the pull-requests and usage routes via new wrapper components; refactors the settings layout to replace its local Escape/keydown handling with the shared hook
Adds Escape handling to PullRequestSearchInput that blurs and clears the input while stopping propagation to the page-level handler; Escape during IME composition is ignored
Behavioral Change: settings layout removes its own navigation/keydown logic in favor of the shared hook; any out-of-tree code relying on the old settings Escape behavior must use useEscapeToGoBack instead

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at ca1fe04

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — This is a small, self-contained web UX fix that centralizes existing Escape navigation and applies it to the Pull Requests and Usage pages, with local handling for the PR search field. Its runtime impact is limited to keyboard interactions in mounted route views and it introduces no schema, infrastructure, security, billing, or static-analysis changes.

Escape Navigation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Shared Escape navigation hook `apps/web/src/hooks/useEscapeToGoBack.ts`	Adds Escape-key filtering, focus blurring, history navigation, `/` fallback navigation, and listener cleanup.
Route Escape handling `apps/web/src/routes/settings.tsx`, `apps/web/src/routes/_chat.pull-requests.tsx`, `apps/web/src/routes/usage.tsx`	Replaces the Settings implementation and enables shared Escape handling for Pull Requests and Usage.
Pull Request search dismissal `apps/web/src/components/pullRequest/PullRequestListFilters.tsx`	Preserves search dismissal while allowing IME composition to process Escape.
