Creating a workspace hard-failed with "Could not refresh base ref …"
whenever the pre-create git fetch of a remote-tracking base (e.g.
origin/main) failed — offline, transient, or (common on Linux GUI) the
Electron process lacking SSH_AUTH_SOCK so `ssh -o BatchMode=yes` cannot
auth. This blocked creation even when a perfectly usable local
origin/main already existed and `git worktree add` from it would succeed.
Regression introduced by #2310 (5c93579e40), which replaced the prior
best-effort fetch + post-create reconcile with a hard network gate.
Fix: at all three create sites (local runtime, local IPC, SSH), only
throw when the refresh failed AND no usable local base ref exists;
otherwise create from the local ref (a possibly stale but valid base).
Also: move the SSH local-ref probe after session.registerRoot so relays
that gate generic git.exec don't false-negative and defeat the fallback.

* fix: address pr-bug-scan validated finding from #6952
throwNodeNotFound() now re-raises AbortError when the shared signal is aborted, so a signal-cancelled node probe no longer launders into 'Node.js not found'; sequential fallback runs.
* fix(ssh): make session-limited (MaxSessions=1) relay deploys actually succeed
Review of #7180 verified the parent fallback end-to-end against a real
MaxSessions=1 sshd and found the connect still failed. Four gaps, in order
of discovery:
- isSshSessionLimitError missed stock OpenSSH, which refuses session
channels over MaxSessions with SSH2_OPEN_CONNECT_FAILED (2) and 'open
failed' — reason 4 never matched, so the fallback never triggered.
- execCommand settled aborted commands before the channel finished
closing, so the sequential fallback reissued execs while sshd still
counted the old session.
- SshConnection.waitForSshCallback rejected aborts mid-channel-open
immediately, leaking a confirmed-late channel that held the only
session slot; it now settles after the late channel closes (bounded)
and drains its streams so ssh2 emits 'close'.
- Session channel opens now retry transient session-limit refusals
(sshd frees the slot only after processing our close-ack, which the
next open can beat by microseconds), and the remote orca CLI shim
install is non-fatal like the managed-hook install — after the relay
bridge occupies the sole session slot, raw-connection extras must
degrade instead of failing the connection.
Verified live against Docker sshd (OpenSSH 9.2, MaxSessions=1): fresh
deploy (upload + native deps + launch), reconnect cycles, and a PTY
round-trip all succeed; unrestricted-sshd regression run also passes.

* Handle ssh execution aborts immediately during retry backoff or hangs
- Cancel the session-limit retry delay immediately if the operation is
aborted during backoff.
- Limit the wait time to a 5-second grace period when aborted during a
channel open that is hung and never invokes its callback, rather than
waiting for the full connection timeout.

- Prevent the "Stage All" button from being enabled when only nested
submodule worktree changes are present.
- Remove the disabled stage button on submodule worktree-only rows,
replacing it with an explanatory tooltip.
- Fix WSL terminal environment assertion in daemon PTY tests to allow
inherited agent-hook environment variables.
* Fix notes send targets for manual agents
* Split agent title merging into manual and launch-agent paths
Separate the merging logic for terminal titles depending on whether the
tab has a launch agent or is a manually started CLI.
- Launch-agent tabs carry an owner bit, allowing their live titles to
promote a stale status row on the same pane.
- Manually started agents have no owner bit, so they only ever add a
row and must not override existing status evidence.
- Remove the temporary TitleHintAgentTarget type and the need to strip
metadata when pushing targets.
Quality pass on main-process/build PRs merged 2026-07-03:
- ios-emulator-backend: resolve the serve-sim executable via a lazily-cached getter
instead of eagerly in the constructor. The bridge is built before the main window
is shown, so the one-time recursive copy + xattr subprocess (first launch after each
version bump) no longer blocks macOS startup for a feature that may go unused (#7174).
- index: collapse the two near-identical `{webContentsId, until}` reload flags
(expectedRendererReload / recoveryReloadInFlight) into one `createWebContentsTimedFlag`
primitive; behavior preserved, including consume-on-read for the recovery reload (#7290).
- check-reliability-gates: coerce gate.commands/testFiles/platforms/providers with an
`asArray` helper before `.includes`, so a hand-edited manifest with a missing/mistyped
field reports a validation failure instead of throwing an uncaught TypeError; extract
`hasCompleteRedGreenEvidence` for the duplicated status check (#7295).
- claude-pty: derive FABLE_WEEKLY_LABEL_RE from WEEKLY_RE.source so a future weekly-
wording change stays in one place and can't reopen the parsing gap it just closed.
- macos-tcc-login-shell: trim the 30-line flag-by-flag JSDoc to the two non-obvious whys
(TCC identity, env(1) SHELL re-assertion) per the repo comment guidance (#7003).
Typecheck, oxlint, oxfmt, `check:reliability-gates`, and touched unit suites all pass.
Quality pass on renderer/shared PRs merged 2026-07-03:
- WorktreeTitleInlineRename: skip the truncation measure + ResizeObserver in `wrapTitle`
mode, where wrapped titles never truncate — it could only churn unused state (#7307).
- editor slice: reuse the `removeEditorStateForReplacedPreview` helper this PR added
instead of a hand-rolled copy of the same six-field eviction (drops ~50 lines) (#6476).
- useFileExplorerTree: extract `readWorktreeDirectory` so the connectionId/settings
assembly for `readRuntimeDirectory` lives in one place, not three (#6321).
- comment-markdown-github-attachment-media: extract a shared `AttachmentFallbackLink`
for the image/video error-fallback link (#6759).
- repository-icon-github: fold the two near-identical live resolvers into one
parameterized `resolveRepositoryIdentityLive`; trim a 3-line comment to 2 (#6507).
- resource-usage-open-slices: delete the `shouldReadPopoverSlices` identity wrapper and
inline `open` at the four call sites (#7275).
- BrowserPane: drop the pointerEvents assignment already applied inside
`ensureBrowserPageWebview` for the reused-webview path (#6958).
- github slice: fix two garbled "…a commit main confirmed…" comments (#7277).
- runtime-file-client: trim the binary-file fallback comment to its whys (#6606).
- composer-branch-selection: drop the inline comment that restated the JSDoc (#6748).
- TabBarQuickCommandsButton: correct the stale "+ Command" comment (button shows no +).
No behavior change (the editor-helper reuse is behavior-equivalent, only more
conservative on an edge case); typecheck, oxlint, react-doctor, oxfmt, and touched
unit suites all pass.
Quality pass on terminal PRs merged 2026-07-03:
- pane-split-close: extract a shared `teardownManagedPane` so `closeManagedPane` and
`detachManagedPaneForExternalMove` can't drift apart on future edits (#7215).
- terminal-link-activation: reuse the existing `isMacPlatform()` instead of a second
inline `navigator.userAgent` copy, keeping one source of truth for Mac detection.
- pty-connection: gate the shadow-cursor moves on empty CSI params so parameterized/
modified cursor keys (e.g. Ctrl+Left word-jump, `ESC[1;5D`) reset command tracking
instead of silently desyncing the buffer used to infer a typed agent name; relocate
the `getAuthoritativePaneAgent` JSDoc to the function it documents (#6954).
No behavior change except the cursor-tracking hardening; all touched unit suites pass.
This reverts commit a94d692cd5, restoring the
shorter "Command" label and the Play icon on the quick command entry
(PRs #5528 and #5674).

sherpa-onnx cannot load model files or hotword lists from Windows
paths containing non-ASCII characters.
- Resolve speech model and hotwords paths to ASCII-safe alternatives
like ProgramData when the default userData path contains non-ASCII
- Migrate existing downloaded models from the legacy non-ASCII cache
- Ensure deleted models are removed from the legacy source folder to
prevent them from being re-migrated on subsequent launches
Fixes the PTY fallback path so Claude Fable usage carries a concrete reset timestamp and the existing status tooltip renders the Fable reset countdown.
* fix: stop Claude account loading after denial
* fix(claude-accounts): tear down whole login tree on OAuth denial
Use killChild() (not child.kill) on the denial path so the detached

* feat: allow custom worktree branch names
* refactor(ui): render custom branch name field unconditionally under advanced container
* fix(composer): hide manual branch field when a work-item source drives the branch
A tracked PR/issue/MR/Linear source derives the branch itself, and a linked
GitHub PR re-resolves the branch name at submit — so an override typed in the
Advanced branch field was silently ignored. Only render the field for the
typed-name and base-branch flows, where the manual override is honored.

The POSIX agent-hook script for every curl-based agent inlined the full
event payload via `curl --data-urlencode "payload=${payload}"`. Tool
output can be tens of KB, so the resulting process command line could be
multi-KB — which endpoint security tools (e.g. Microsoft Defender for
Endpoint) flag as an oversized/suspicious command line. That produced a
false-positive detection on Orca's own loopback (127.0.0.1) telemetry POST.
Stream the payload to an mktemp file and post it with
`--data-urlencode "payload@$payload_file"` instead. The urlencoded body on
the wire is byte-identical, so the agent-hook receiver is unchanged; the
payload simply never appears on a process command line. `trap ... EXIT`
removes the temp file on every exit path. Small bounded metadata fields
(paneKey/tabId/worktreeId/env/version) stay inline.
Applied to all curl-based agents: claude, codex, command-code, copilot,
cursor, droid, gemini, grok, antigravity. (amp/hermes/opencode post via
the HTTP request body and were never affected.) The Windows post-command
shares the same latent pattern and is flagged as follow-up.

* fix(gitlab): port-aware self-hosted host recognition
Use the URL host (including a non-default web/API port) as the GitLab
host identity instead of the port-less hostname, and match known hosts
port-aware:
- A known-host entry without a port matches any port of the same
hostname (preserves legacy bare-host and gitlab.com recognition).
- A known-host entry WITH a port matches only that exact host:port, so
two services sharing a hostname on different ports (e.g. a GitLab and
a Gitea) are no longer conflated.
- For ssh/git remotes the port is a transport port (e.g. ssh :2222) and
is dropped; for http(s) remotes the port is the endpoint and kept.
- Also capture an optional :port in parseGlabAuthStatusHosts so a
self-hosted GitLab on a non-default port is discovered correctly.
* fix(gitlab): per-connection known-hosts cache + port-aware auth-status parsing
getGlabKnownHosts() was connection-blind and cached process-globally,
and on any failure it cached [gitlab.com] forever — so a repo on an SSH
connection never discovered its self-hosted host once a probe failed
before the tunnel was ready.
- getGlabKnownHosts(connectionId?) now caches per connection so a
connected repo's authenticated hosts don't leak into the local
context (or vice versa).
- The failure fallback (canonical default) is no longer cached, so a
later probe can re-discover the real host once auth/tunnel is ready.
- parseGlabAuthStatusHosts captures an optional :port on both the
'Logged in to <host>' and header-style lines, keeping two services on
the same hostname distinct by port.
* fix(gitlab): isolate unresolvable projects instead of cwd-fallback that hits exit 128
listIssues/getIssue fell back to an unscoped 'glab issue list' / 'glab
issue view' that infers the project from cwd. For a repo on an SSH
connection cwd is not the repo dir, so glab runs git resolution in a
non-repo dir and fails with 'git: exit status 128'. In an 'All projects'
aggregate one such failure could sink the whole issues panel.
When a projectRef cannot be resolved, return a structured, isolated
per-project result (listIssues: { items: [], error: not_found };
getIssue: null) and spawn no glab subprocess. Behavior is unchanged when
a projectRef IS resolved (the scoped '-R' / 'api projects/...' path).
* fix(gitlab): recognize modern /-/work_items/<iid> issue URLs
Modern GitLab emits issue URLs as /-/work_items/<iid> in addition to the
legacy /-/issues/<iid>. The URL classifiers only matched /-/issues/, so
work-item-form issue links went unrecognized.
Extend the gitlab-links parsers (parseGitLabIssueOrMRNumber /
parseGitLabIssueOrMRLink, which also backs isWorkItemLookupText) and
isGitLabIssueUrl to accept /-/work_items/<iid>, mapping it to an issue
work item with the same project-path + iid extraction.
* fix(gitlab): thread connectionId into getGlabKnownHosts call sites
Follow the existing connectionId-threading pattern: pass the repo's
connectionId into every getGlabKnownHosts() call (client.ts,
work-item-details.ts, orca-runtime.ts) so the per-connection known-hosts
cache is keyed correctly and self-hosted hosts are discovered against
the right glab context.
* docs(gitlab): use generic example hosts in comments
* fix(gitlab): pass self-hosted host:port via GITLAB_HOST (glab --hostname rejects ports)
* polish: satisfy oxlint curly + oxfmt on merged gitlab port-recognition code

* fix(serve): install the orca CLI in headless serve mode
In headless serve mode the orca CLI command (~/.local/bin/orca on Linux,
/usr/local/bin/orca on macOS) is never created, so the in-app Claude Team
launcher (orca claude-teams) opened by 'Start new agent' fails with
command-not-found. CliInstaller.install() is only invoked from renderer/desktop
flows (onboarding, Settings 'Install CLI', feature tips) via the cli:install IPC;
headless serve has no renderer. Run the existing idempotent installer on the
serve startup path, best-effort so a failure never blocks serve startup.
Fixes#5763.
* fix(serve): install a bare `orca` dispatcher on Linux for Claude Team
On Linux CliInstaller installs the CLI as `orca-ide` (to avoid shadowing GNOME
Orca's /usr/bin/orca), not bare `orca`. But the Claude Team launcher (`orca
claude-teams`), composed client-side by both the desktop renderer and the
mobile app and written verbatim to the host PTY, invokes bare `orca` — which
is unresolved in the initial managed terminal (no agent-teams shim on PATH
yet). The serve-mode CLI install therefore fixed macOS but not Linux.
Add a bare-`orca` dispatcher in the serve branch (host-side, Linux only) that
execs the bundled CLI wrapper. ~/.local/bin is hardcoded ahead of /usr/bin on
the managed-terminal PATH, so it resolves. Plain file (not a managed symlink)
so CliInstaller.removeLegacyLinuxCommandIfManaged leaves it untouched.
* Restore ai-vault files to origin/main (drop stale pre-0.52 oxfmt merge artifact)
Co-authored-by: Orca <help@stably.ai>
* Harden serve CLI install: AppImage-safe dispatcher, no-prompt macOS, skip Windows, conflict guard
- Gate CliInstaller.install() to macOS+Linux; Windows would only mutate the
persistent user-registry PATH without helping the current serve's terminals.
- Inject a non-prompting privilegedRunner so headless macOS never pops an
osascript admin dialog when /usr/local/bin isn't writable (skips instead).
- Linux dispatcher: exec the stable $APPIMAGE via buildAppImageCliWrapper when
running from an AppImage (resourcesPath is an ephemeral FUSE mount); skip when
the bundled orca-ide launcher is absent; never clobber a user-owned ~/.local/bin/orca.
- Single-quote the exec target; add coverage for all new branches.

Collapse the three per-handler deletes (Page.bringToFront, Page.captureScreenshot,
catch-all) of the pending DOM.focus replay into a single guarded delete keyed on
'not DOM.focus and not Input.insertText'. States the invariant in one place and
removes the trap where a future early-returning handler forgets to clear the
stale focus. Also clear the map on client teardown and shorten the field comment.

* fix(browser): keep isolated profile storage on its partition
* fix(browser): keep cloned isolated tabs on their resolved partition
* fix(browser): thread resolved partition through UI profile switches
Keep the isolated-storage invariant universal: UI-initiated profile
switch/create now persist the resolved partition alongside the profile
id, matching the runtime path, so a tab stays on its partition even if
the renderer profile mirror is later stale (issue #6923).
Co-authored-by: Orca <help@stably.ai>
* fix(browser): persist resolved partition through session restore
Add sessionPartition to the workspace-session zod schema so the resolved
partition survives persist->load; without it zod strips the field and a
restored isolated tab whose profile mirror is stale at startup falls back
to the shared default partition, reopening the storage leak (#6923).
Fold the webview teardown branches (parent drift or partition mismatch)
into one and re-resolve the viewport container once, matching the
pre-refactor null-guard behavior.
Split the sleeping-agent parse tests into their own file to keep both
under the 800-line cap.

* fix(browser): keep CLI-created tabs inheriting the default profile
browserTabCreate without an explicit profile was sending sessionProfileId:
null, which the renderer store treats as 'no inheritance' (its guard is
!== undefined). That forced CLI-created tabs onto the shared default
partition even when the user had configured a default browser session
profile, silently changing behavior a #6923 fix should not touch.
Leave sessionProfileId/sessionPartition undefined when no profile is named
so the renderer applies default-profile inheritance; thread the resolved
partition only when a profile is explicitly chosen.

* fix: drop stale repos fetches so deleted projects don't reappear
Deleting a project group with "Remove contained projects" could leave the
removed projects as stale, unusable sidebar rows until an app restart (#7020).
`repos:changed` fires once per removal and the renderer starts an unsequenced
repos fetch per event; an earlier fetch that read pre-removal state could
resolve last and overwrite the newer result, reintroducing the deleted repos.
Guard fetchRepos and fetchReposForAllHosts with a monotonic token so a fetch
drops its own result once a newer repos fetch has superseded it — only the
latest fetch, which reads the final persisted state, applies. Add a regression
test that a stale fetch resolving after a newer one can't resurrect a removed
repo.
* test: isolate stale-fetch race in a dedicated file; scope guard to fetchRepos
Move the #7020 regression test out of repos.test.ts into a focused
repos-stale-fetch.test.ts and add a reject-path case (a superseding fetch
that later rejects must still block the older stale fetch). Scope the
monotonic guard to fetchRepos only: the original shared-counter guard on
fetchReposForAllHosts let an unrelated fetchRepos bump the counter and
abort an in-flight all-host load, dropping every host's repos.
