# Architecture
## Overview
`git-tui` is a single executable Python script that provides a terminal UI for common Git commands.
## Module Responsibilities
- `git-tui`:
- Initializes and runs the curses application loop.
- Renders a menu-driven UI with keyboard navigation.
- Executes Git subprocess commands and displays command output.
- Implements file selection for staged and unstaged operations.
## Public API and Contracts
- Command entry point: `git-tui` executable script.
- Runtime contract:
- Must be executed in a terminal that supports curses.
- Must be run from a directory inside a Git working tree.
- Requires `git` to be installed and available in `PATH`.
## Data Model
- `ChangedFile`:
- `index_status`: index status marker from `git status --short`.
- `worktree_status`: worktree status marker from `git status --short`.
- `path`: repository-relative file path.
## Build and Deployment Rules
- No build step is required.
- Deployment is a direct executable file install (copy or symlink).
## Cross References
- Usage and install details: [`doc/usage.md`](usage.md)
- Change tracking: [`CHANGELOG.md`](../CHANGELOG.md)
