 `:` opens compact floating command input titled **Command**; `/` opens input titled **Search** for buffer text search. Titles sit at the top-left border, replacing the displayed leading `:` / `/`. Both input fields have one column of padding on each side. Enter submits and Escape cancels using the existing modal rules. Long Unicode input scrolls horizontally without changing buffer text. Both windows default to the workspace's bottom-left edge, directly above the bottom bar when visible; their [anchors can be configured independently](configuration.md#command-and-search-popup-anchors). They temporarily hide operation notifications and never reserve a permanent prompt/footer row. Tiny windows omit borders/titles or padding when needed to keep input usable.
 
+Command input works in both Normal and Visual modes, including read-only diff panes. Enter dispatches with the original Visual ranges, direction, and linewise shape intact; individual commands decide whether to consume or retain them. Escape returns to the original Visual selection without executing. For example, select lines with `V`, then type `:diff.comment` and press Enter—no command palette is needed. `config.core.command` can also be bound in Visual mode.

 The latest reported operation result appears in a non-focusable popup at the workspace's bottom-right, just above the bottom bar when visible, with one column of inner padding on each side when space permits. It remains until dismissed or replaced, with no timer. In Normal mode, the first Escape dismisses it without collapsing carets; a subsequent Escape retains ordinary Normal behavior. Existing modal windows, focused explorers/diff selectors, and pending prefixes retain Escape priority. New operation messages reopen the popup; routine successful buffer switches do not duplicate the buffer/path information already shown in the bar.
 
 Command-capable core actions derive canonical Ex names by removing `core.`: `core.quit` gives `:quit`, `core.save` gives `:save`, and `core.diff.close` gives `:diff.close`. Native editing and Insert-only completion/snippet actions remain action bindings, not additional Ex commands.

 Review marks belong only to the open comparison and survive filtering, file navigation, lazy loading, tabs, split/unified/orientation changes, and pinned checkout-only transitions. A new or recomputed comparison clears them. Editing a writable After file clears only that file's mark; unchanged refreshes and saves preserve it. Marks do not change document text, undo history, or repository state, and are not persisted after closing the comparison.

For a range, make one Visual or Visual Line selection, then choose `diff.comment` through Ctrl+p or a configured Visual-mode binding. Multiple independent carets/ranges must be reviewed separately.

 Comments and summaries open in a focused native split pane, with their own heading, normal modes, selections, undo/redo, and pane-focus bindings. Source rows are never replaced with comment text. Magenta **`○`** gutter markers identify current comment ranges; **`●`** identifies the selected comment. Markers preserve addition/deletion signs, appear only on the first wrapped segment, and also work in unified view.
