Code Toolbar

This tool describes and validates a code editor toolbar model used by developers and tool-chain engineers. It captures groups of actions, each item’s identifier, label, and optional shortcut, plus visibility rules and extension points. The goal is to produce a precise, machine-readable specification that can be used for documentation, audits, and automated tooling without tying to a single IDE.
Conceptually, the tool treats the toolbar as a collection of grouped items with defined order and keyboard accelerators. It enforces domain constraints such as unique shortcuts, consistent grouping, and predictable fallbacks. It can ingest a simple JSON-like model or a compact YAML-like input and emit a canonical representation plus human-readable documentation.
Beneficiaries include frontend and IDE developers, UX researchers, and developer tooling teams who need repeatable toolbar definitions across products. Unique value lies in separating domain logic from UI, enabling automated validation, localization planning, and rapid onboarding of new engineers or contributors.
Core features include input schemas for groups and items, validation rules, defaulting behavior, and export formats. Use cases include auditing existing toolbars, designing new toolbars for plugins, and generating consistent in-editor help. The tool also supports edge cases such as nested groups, conditional visibility, and platform-specific shortcuts.
