fix(plugins): merge disk writes into a custom editor's unsaved edits (#37343)
* fix(plugins): merge disk writes into a custom editor's unsaved edits A write to the file on disk while a custom editor tab had unsaved edits never reached the editor: the buffer kept the edits, Orca showed its Reload/Overwrite banner, and the session's merge never ran. Now a frame whose document session has merge announces it (editor.merges), and Orca sends it the new disk text with the text the edits started from (editor.document with ancestor). The session merges, posts the result, and the tab stays unsaved with it; the banner is skipped. Without merge the banner decides as before. * test(editor): an explicit save under the changed-on-disk banner keeps the edits * fix(plugins): make the outside merge exact, and narrow it to where it is - The host settles a merge only on the session's edit made against the merge's own document version, and always commits that result to the buffer (even when it equals the disk text); silence past the 1 s flush deadline, a remount or a throwing merge leave the banner and the suspended autosave in place. - Orca stamps exactly the disk snapshot the acknowledged merge used and records it as the next ancestor; a write that landed meanwhile puts the conflict back for its own merge. - The ancestor is the tab's disk text recorded while clean and advanced on acknowledged merges, and must match the tab's disk baseline. - Only a local file in one merging editor view, with no other tab on its buffer, takes this path; anything else gets the banner. - Frame events keep reaching their handlers after the merge capability. * fix(plugins): move nothing on a failed disk merge; advance the saved text on success A merge that throws now leaves the session's document, baseline and version untouched, so the user's next edit goes out against the old version: Orca refuses it and keeps the banner instead of taking it as the merge's acknowledgement. After an acknowledged merge the tab's saved text moves to the disk text it used, so typing back to the old ancestor no longer looks clean. * chore(plugins): regenerate the testing bundle on main |

feat(plugins): commands[].replaces lets a mod take over a built-in action (#37316)
* plugins: commands[].replaces lets a worker command take over a built-in action A worker command with replaces: <action> (the declarative action list, engines >=1.4.248, needs main) runs in place of that built-in from its shortcut, plugin aliases and the sidebar menus; a failed or silent (2 s) worker falls back to Orca's own. The install screen names each replacement, the plugin page has a per-action switch (settings.pluginReplacementsOff), and when two plugins replace one action the one installed first wins and the other's log says so. Update review counts replaces as new access. * fix(plugins): narrow replaced action ids before looking up their titles * plugins: harden command replaces after review - Consent includes the replaced actions, so adding replaces to a dev folder needs a new approval; CLI approval and update review name each takeover. - Shortcuts main intercepts (Tasks, Workspace Board, history), search with a selection and floating maximize now go through the replacement too. - A worker that only starts after the 2 s fallback no longer runs the command as well: main refuses to start it past the deadline. - A workspace-only command does not replace an action without a workspace. - An update keeps the plugin's first install time, so it keeps its takeover. - Drop the commands.run promise until Orca offers it. * plugins: commands.run always runs the built-in, never a replacement A5b's commands.run dispatches with the 'plugin-host' source; the app dispatcher now builds handlers that run Orca's own action for it, so a plugin that replaces an action and calls commands.run cannot loop. Docs and schema describe wrapping the built-in with commands.run; regenerated. |

feat(plugins): plugin shot --editor to screenshot and drive custom editors (#37302)
* plugins: orca plugin shot --editor, and plugin open --editor opens the file's folder plugin open --editor now opens the file in the workspace that holds it, matching its real path too (/tmp vs /private/tmp), and otherwise adds the file's folder as a folder workspace instead of failing with no_workspace. plugin shot <dir|key> --editor <file> [--theme] [--width --height] [--act] loads the editor afresh in a hidden tab, waits for it to get its document and ask for it (a new editor.subscribed frame event), captures the editor's guest with the panel shot's capture path, and sends --act clicks, drags and keys as real input via sendInputEvent. It exits 1 with the frame's errors when the editor throws, is blocked by its content policy, or never asks for its document within 5s; theme and size are put back. New RPC method plugins.shotEditor so older hosts fail cleanly. * plugins: shot --editor never changes the author's file With --act the shot copies the file into a temporary folder, shoots the copy in a temporary folder workspace, then closes its tab and removes the workspace and folder; --in-place acts on the file itself. Without --act it opens the real file, leaves its buffer alone and closes the tab if the shot opened it. Afterwards Orca shows the workspace it showed before. Regenerates the skill's CLI reference. * plugins: fix editor shot typecheck (refusal next step, RPC test mock) * plugins: editor shot targets its own guest, flushes before reload, scopes cleanup per capture - Main captures the exact guest WebContents the shot's tab mounted, not the first with its URL. - An open editor's pending edits are flushed before the shot reloads it; the shot fails if not. - --act --in-place keeps the acted tab and its unsaved edits. - end-capture undoes only its own capture (per-capture id), so overlapping shots don't clash. - The file's workspace lookup includes local folder workspaces. * plugins: shot --status-bar/--window, key acts focus the editor guest, panel shot selects a workspace - Editor --act keys first give the guest's <webview> DOM focus and refocus its target, so a canvas that keeps focus no longer drops later keys; never webContents.focus(), which focuses the window. - orca plugin shot <dir|key> --status-bar | --window [--theme]: captures Orca's status bar or the whole hidden window (plugins.shotChrome) with the existing capture helpers. - With no workspace showing, a panel shot selects this machine's most recent workspace in the hidden window instead of failing. * plugins: a shot's end restores only its own capture overrides * plugins: regenerate the testing runtime with the editor subscribed signal * plugins: editor capture refusals go through one CLI-message helper * fix(plugins): give the chrome shot refusal a next step |

feat(plugins): check custom editors and test them with mockEditorHost (#37293)
* feat(plugins): check custom editors statically and add mockEditorHost orca plugin check now follows each custom editor entry (local script src, inline module scripts, relative imports), transpiled and resolved as the frame loader does, and fails at file:line:column on syntax errors, missing files, refused imports, string eval/Function and files over their size cap, with no running Orca. The check ships in the test hooks bundle. orca/testing gains mockEditorHost: it runs the frame shell's real window.orca (document API and session) over an in-memory text or bytes file, with edits, replace, conflictNext, flush, setTheme and dispose. Typings, docs and the skill guide cover both. * feat(plugins): warn on editor eval and check editors in dev watch editor_eval comes from a lexical scan that can misread rare code, so it is now a warning that does not fail orca plugin check. dev watch --check runs the editor check beside the panel check and reports it under editors. * fix(plugins): check editors by the frame protocol's rules; mock blocks lost saves The static editor check now reads files through the loader's contained reader (symlinks out of the plugin are refused), runs only JavaScript script types, honors the page's import map for native modules, classifies files by the protocol's content types (JSON imports, extensionless HTML entries), decodes escaped script URLs, and uses the protocol's caps: 10 MiB entry, 1 MiB transpiled module, 16 MiB checked dependency. mockEditorHost refuses an oversized edit before reading it and then rejects flush() until a later edit lands, as Orca blocks the save. * test(plugins): type mockEditorHost's frame API instead of reflecting on it * fix(plugins): keep main's case-spelling check and hook typings through the rebase The rebase onto main resolved plugin-artifact-validation.ts and orca-testing.d.ts to B4's side; this puts back main's exact-path-spelling check and hooks typings beside B4's contained reader and mockEditorHost types, and regenerates the testing bundle. |

feat(plugins): status bar items plugins can update live (#37291)
* plugins: contributes.statusBarItems with worker updates (statusBar.update)
A plugin declares status bar items { id, text?, icon?, tone?, tooltip?,
command? } (declarative profile, engines >=1.4.247); pressing one runs
its own command. A trusted worker changes them with the new worker-only
host method statusBar.update; main keeps the session's changes and
pushes snapshots to desktop windows over plugins:statusBarChanged.
Regenerates schemas, references, typings and the authoring skill.
* plugins: statusBarItems ship in 1.4.248, beside contributes.hooks
* plugins: clear a plugin's status bar changes when it is disabled, removed or updated
* plugins: list status bar items in the plugin page's Adds section
* plugins: count statusBarItems' since in the host's newest readable version
* i18n: add the plugin page's status bar row label to en.json
* plugins: status bar items respect workspace commands, dev reloads and catalog summaries
- An item whose command needs a workspace is disabled with no open workspace.
- A dev code edit (new devRevision) drops the old worker's status bar changes.
- Catalog summaries list status bar items, and marketplace details show them.
* plugins: authoring skill lists status bar items as buildable; approval lists them
The skill no longer calls status bar items reserved and gains a row for them. The
dev-load/inspect approval already lists them via the contribution summary; a test pins
that and the fingerprint binding.
* chore(plugins): regenerate the testing bundle after rebasing on main

fix(plugins): skip nested packages in dev folders and summarize blocked frame requests (#37300)
* fix(plugins): skip nested dev packages and count blocked frame requests Dev folders and their watcher now skip .git, .orca and node_modules at any depth, so a nested build/node_modules no longer trips the 2,000-file limit or re-reviews the plugin; installs still hash everything but the root .git. Requests a plugin frame makes off its own files (session-cancelled or refused by its content policy) are counted per kind and origin and logged every 5 s and on teardown, outside the 20-lines-per-10-s console budget: [frame] blocked font-src https://unpkg.com (x48): plugin frames have no network * fix(plugins): read current CSP refusal wording and bound blocked-request logging - Electron 43 prints "Loading the font '…' violates …" (and Connecting to / Framing / Fetching content from); read it alongside the older "Refused to …" wording, name the unset directive from the fallback note, and treat fetch's repeat as an echo. An Electron test captures the bundled runtime's real messages. - Keep at most 32 kind-and-origin counts and log at most 8 lines per flush, folding the rest into one overflow count line. |

feat(plugins): orca.document.session() for custom editors (#37285)
* feat(plugins): add orca.document.session() for custom editors One call replaces the document sync every editor rebuilds: decode/encode (plain text by default), optional merge, debounce. One edit in flight with later changes coalesced; the baseline moves only on accept; a refused edit keeps the draft and rejects flush(); own accepted edits never reach onReplace; a conflict merges once against the last accepted value and resubmits, or keeps the draft without merge. The session answers editor.flush itself and resolves after hello and the first document. The --template editor now uses it. Docs and typings state the session and the undo model (the editor owns undo). * fix(plugins): let the outside document win a session conflict without merge Agents write files while people edit them, so keeping the draft lost the agent's write on the next keystroke. Without merge the session now drops the draft, fires onReplace with the outside value and rejects flush() with conflict; editors that want both sides pass merge. * fix(plugins): serialize session edits through saves and settle before answering - One edit in flight at all times, saves included; editor.flush is answered only once every change is accepted or refused with nothing newer to send. - The editor host commits a held edit when a save starts and admits edits during the save at once, so waiting fits the 1 s deadline. - A change generation replaces identity checks, and sent bytes are snapshotted, so a reused buffer is never mistaken for an accepted edit. - A waiting flush keeps its conflict rejection when the outside document wins, and nothing merges or sends after dispose. * test(plugins): read session test edits through typed helpers * fix(plugins): drain session flushes, reject dropped drafts, snapshot the baseline - flush() keeps going until no change made during it is left unsent. - A waiting flush rejects with conflict whenever the outside document replaced a draft, newer ones included. - The accepted baseline is decoded from the sent snapshot, so a reused value buffer cannot change merge's base. * test(plugins): name the session test option and message types |

feat(plugins): let a custom editor require the desktop app's isolated frame (#37298)
* feat(plugins): let a custom editor require isolated frames customEditors[].frame: "isolated" | "any" (default any, since 1.4.248). An isolated-only editor never runs in the srcdoc fallback: main serves its fallback shell without the entry, and when this window has no isolated guest (browser clients, or desktop with isolated frames off) the file opens in Source with "This editor needs the Orca desktop app". Picking the editor shows the same notice with an Open Source button. * i18n: add the needs-desktop editor notice strings * plugins: refresh frame isolation when its setting changes; browser clients open Source - The learned isolated-frames answer is tied to the setting it was learned under, so turning isolated frames back on lets isolated-only editors open by default again. - A browser client's plugin bridge has no list, so the plugin store settles on no plugins instead of erroring and retrying; files open in Source. |

feat(plugins): orca plugin shot --scenario replays a check scenario; dev watch shot pendingRequests (#37090)
- shot <key|dir> --scenario <name> renders the panel in that check scenario through the check runner (a separate Node process on a mock host and mounted worker), sends the validated drawn tree to a new plugins.shotReplay, and captures it in a throwaway preview surface: no guest, no live host, no real storage or settings, no real worker, images as placeholders. Window hidden or minimized only; --act, --environment and bridged shells refused; an older host answers method_not_found (runtime_unsupported) rather than doing a live shot. - dev watch's shot event carries pendingRequests. |

Plugin shots wait for the worker and restore after --act; terminal approval prompt (#37066)
* feat(plugins): dev watch asks for first-load approval in a terminal; acronym-aware names
- In an interactive terminal without --json, a first dev watch load that needs approval shows
the grants (as plugin inspect prints them) and asks Approve and load? [y/N]; yes reloads with
the host's fingerprint and keeps watching. --json and non-TTY runs keep the exit-3 flow.
- create keeps known acronyms uppercase when it derives a name from the id (pr-queue → PR Queue).
* fix(plugins): a declined dev watch approval prints only the re-run command
The person just read the grants in the prompt, so the exit-3 error no longer repeats them:
Not approved. To approve later, run: <command>.
* feat(plugins): shots wait for the worker; --act restores the panel; Table and Tree acts
- A shot settles once the panel has no plugin.request or host call in flight and no new tree for
a quiet spell (capped at 3 s), so a cold worker's skeleton is not captured; pendingRequests
reports what was still pending.
- After --act and the capture, the guest restores every plugin-written atom it had before (new
ui.snapshot/ui.restore; persisted atoms re-persist) and Orca remounts its drawn controls;
restored: true|false. Worker-side effects are not rolled back.
- --act gains the kit's slide, sort, selectRows, activateRow, loadMore, expand, collapse,
selectItem and activateItem.
- Docs: the dev watch first-load prompt; shot settle, restore and the new verbs.
* fix(plugins): a shot waits for the theme repaint and retries a bare capture
Linux CI captured a dark --theme shot as a bare background (2 colors). The renderer now waits
until the document shows the asked color scheme and paints, adds a frame after a --width
resize, and main recaptures a panel image that is still a background and a border (two colors
or fewer) up to 8 times, 150 ms apart, before returning it. Html panels keep their guest
composite.
* fix(plugins): capture the main window with stayHidden
webContents.capturePage(rect, { stayHidden: true }) keeps a hidden window rendering for the
capture, as the components gallery screenshots do. The repaint wait stays, and the bare-capture
retry stays as a fallback.

fix(plugins): workspace.changed replays the current context on subscribe (#37044)
A panel that loaded before Orca focused a workspace showed nothing until the next change, and a
subscription made before the panel's push channel opened was never told at all. Now each new
subscriber gets the current context first: the panel bridge replays it once the channel is
open (or right away), and a worker's events.on('workspace.changed') reads it through
workspace.readContext. Unit tests for both, and the agents e2e checks the first event arrives
with no change happening.

Plugin dev loop: dev request, shot --act, worker-panel template, output polish (#37049)
* feat(plugins): orca plugin dev request; --template worker-panel - orca plugin dev request <dir|key> <name> [--data] [--panel] [--timeout-ms] calls a dev plugin's orca.panels.handle handler through the real panel bridge (plugins.devRequest) and prints the answer; handler errors become plugin_request_failed with the worker's code. - orca plugin create --template worker-panel scaffolds a build-less trusted-worker plugin: a components panel, src/worker.ts, a shared src/protocol.ts contract, and panel and worker tests that pass under orca plugin test and type-check with tsc. * feat(plugins): shot --act, shots in the plugin folder, quieter logs - orca plugin shot --act '<json>' presses, types, selects and toggles in the live components panel (the test kit's queries and acts, through Orca's own controls and onEvent) before the capture, waiting for each to settle. Only that plugin's panel, only with Orca's window hidden or minimized; html panels refused; acts are not user gestures. Results in actions[]. - shot run inside a plugin folder defaults to its .orca/shots, like dev watch --shot. - dev watch prints identical [frame] lines once per reload with a count; logged stacks drop <anonymous>/native frames; the floating workspace button hides during a capture. - Skill: worker-panel template in the decision table, dev request, shot --act, and a gotcha that a worker save drops its in-memory state. |

Plugin dev emit reaches panels; trim the plugin authoring skill (#37026)
* feat(plugins): dev emit also reaches the plugin's open panels orca plugin dev emit now publishes through the panel bridge to that dev plugin's open panels that subscribed with orca.on, under the same approval and capability rules as the worker, and reports delivered.panels. The bridge's publishEvent takes an optional pluginKey filter and returns how many panels heard it. A panel-only plugin no longer needs a worker; an event nothing listens for is refused. * docs(skills): trim the plugin authoring guide; details move to references The main guide drops from 299 to 121 lines: the decision table, build-less rules, core loop (create → dev watch --check --shot → read the PNG → test → check → release-entry), approval and top gotchas. Test/check and orca/testing (panels and workers), dev watch events, shot, open and dev emit move to a hand-written references/workflow.md; the panel/worker/data and agent status recipes to references/recipes.md, each with a read-when row. The guide test now also scans hand-written references for commands and caps the main guide at 150 lines. |

Plugin dev loop: orca plugin open/shot, dev emit, and dogfood fixes (#37008)
* feat(plugins): orca plugin open and shot; dev watch --shot - orca plugin open <key> [--panel|--editor] shows a panel in the right sidebar or a file in the plugin's custom editor, by changing renderer state only (no focus or window raise). - orca plugin shot <key> [--panel] [--theme] [--width] [--out] [--json] waits for the panel's current code to draw, then crops webContents.capturePage to the panel (html guests included), with background throttling off while hidden. --width and --theme are temporary in-memory overrides; the PNG returns base64 (5 MiB cap), so --environment works. - dev watch --shot <dir> writes a PNG per panel after the load and each good reload. - The authoring skill's loop is now dev watch --check --shot → read the PNG → plugin test. * fix(plugins): shots never disturb a visible Orca - shot --theme is skipped while the Orca window is on screen (themeApplied: false with a themeReason); the override applies only to a hidden or minimized window. - dev watch --shot opens the first panel (or --shot-panel <id>) once, then shoots it with ifShown: if the user moved the sidebar away it emits one shot_skipped instead of switching. * fix(plugins): dev loop dogfood fixes; orca plugin dev emit - dev watch: approval re-run command drops watch-only flags and old --approve; a folder added by a refused load is owned by the next approved load (Ctrl-C unloads it); check events carry the plugin's status (no green while pending/errored); reloaded prints before that reload's logs; --json errors are one NDJSON line. - Errors: log, banner and check share source-mapped positions (a line-1 prelude hands sucrase mappings to the components runtime); check dedupes issues and locates syntax errors; Orca runtime frames and the error module's bogus location are dropped from logs. - .orca/types tsconfig sets preserveSymlinks (tsc 7 loaded typings twice under /tmp). - Templates' READMEs use dev watch. - orca plugin dev emit <dir|key> <event> [--data] sends a test event to a dev plugin's worker through the real delivery rules (plugins.devEmit). * test(plugins): fixed timestamp in the dev emit test * fix(plugins): shot captures an html panel's guest itself On Linux the main window's capturePage leaves a <webview> guest blank. The renderer now reports the guest's rect, and main captures the guest's own webContents and draws it over the window capture at that rect (raw bitmaps, nativeImage only). Components panels are drawn by the host, so the window capture alone stays right for them. * refactor(plugins): keep plugin-service and main-process-plugins under max-lines After rebasing onto #37013 both files crossed 300 lines. The guest log sink moves into the desktop view binding (bindPluginDesktopViews), and plugin-service tightens emitEvent and its event-delivery imports. |

Plugin panels talk to their worker; panel storage, settings and agent events (#37013)
* feat(plugins): panels talk to their own worker, read storage, settings and events
- plugin.request (host API 1.2): a panel or editor asks its plugin's worker, which answers with
orca.panels.handle(name); the worker pushes with orca.panels.post. Same plugin only, JSON
checked, 1 MiB answers, 256 KiB/200-per-10s posts, a deadline and the panel's lifetime.
- Panels and editors get storage.*, settings.* and secrets.* behind the same capabilities, and
storage/settings onDidChange on every surface; events.subscribe delivers workspace and agent
events to panels that hold the read capability.
- contributes.settings: typed settings (a JSON Schema subset) with defaults and value checks.
- Frames get orca.plugin/storage/settings/secrets; components panels import plugin, storage,
settings, secrets from 'orca', and atom(key, init, { persist: 'storage' }) shares a value with
the worker. Workers get orca.panels/storage/settings/secrets sugar.
- One typed contract: declare module 'orca' { interface PluginRequests / PluginPanelEvents }.
- Desktop push channel per open panel session (plugins:openPanelPush).
* feat(plugins): Orca Settings shows and edits a plugin's contributes.settings
The plugin page lists declared settings with Orca's own controls (switch, picker, text and
number fields, Reset to default). Edits are checked against the declaration in main, written to
the plugin's settings, and reach open panels and the running worker through onDidChange.
* docs(plugins): hello-tsx talks to its worker; authoring guide covers panels, workers and data
The example now uses one of each: plugin.request answered by orca.panels.handle, a worker post
heard with plugin.on, a persist: 'storage' atom the worker watches, two contributes.settings and
agent.status.changed in the panel, all typed by one src/protocol.ts. The build-less TSX e2e
drives the whole loop.
* fix(plugins): typed bridge overloads, panel call budget, settings IPC and catalog keys
- PluginBridgeApi/PanelsApi use overloads: declared names are typed (and complete), any other
name carries JSON; no never-unions for the type-aware lint.
- The per-plugin panel call budget is 120 per 10 s, since a panel loading storage atoms,
settings and its first requests makes a burst; the hostile fixture floods past it.
- Settings IPC builds its host per call; the settings section's strings are in en.json.
* test(plugins): the example's declared settings show under the plugin with the person's value
* refactor(plugins): keep hello-tsx the minimal starter; the bridge demo is hello-worker-panel
hello-tsx goes back to a sandboxed-ui panel with no worker or capabilities. The worker, protocol,
storage atom, settings and events move to examples/plugins/hello-worker-panel, with their own
e2e (plugin-worker-panel) and PR route.
* feat(plugins): test kit covers the panel bridge and plugin data
mockHost keeps the plugin's storage, settings and secrets in memory (seeded with storage,
settings, secrets; read with host.data()) and fakes the worker with requests, so plugin.request,
storage/settings/secrets and persist: 'storage' atoms work under mount(), writes reach
onDidChange, and panel.post(event, payload) is what plugin.on hears. Typed by PluginRequests and
PluginPanelEvents.
* test(plugins): focusInGuest waits for the guest and retries focusing as one step
Under load the custom-editor guest could still be attaching, so executeJavaScript threw
'dom-ready' before the focus poll began. Wait for waitForGuestReady, then retry focusing the
webview and the element together, tolerating a guest that is still attaching or remounts.
* docs(plugins): the authoring skill covers panels, workers and data; persistence leaves the renderer
- skill-guides/orca-plugin-authoring.md gains Panels, workers and data (plugin.request/on,
orca.panels.handle/post, persist: 'storage', contributes.settings, panel events, test kit), and
its generated references read orca-services.d.ts for shell, files, on and the bridge types.
- After the dev-loop rebase, persisted-atom wiring (queue plus storage sync) moves to
createDeclarativePersistence so the renderer stays under max-lines.
* feat(plugins): panels show agents: agents.list, terminal ids on agent events, workspace.changed
- agents.list (agent:read, every surface): the focused workspace's agents with terminalId,
title, agent kind, state and stateStartedAt, from the hook server's store.
- agent.status.changed carries terminalId and title: paneKey mapped through the runtime's
terminal list (tabId:leafId) or the status's terminal handle; looked up only while a plugin
listens, in arrival order.
- workspace.readContext terminals carry title; workspace.changed (workspace:read) fires after
workspace session writes when the focused workspace or its terminals change.
- Event subscriptions are kept per panel session, so one made before the push channel opens
still counts.
- shell.openExternal never prompts on a hidden or minimized window: it settles
{ opened: false, reason: 'consent-unavailable' } and says so in the plugin log, which also
notes 'waiting for the person to confirm' while a prompt is up; the rate budget is spent only
when Orca acts. e2e launches never open a real browser or mail client.
- A worker may export activate as default or by name; docs, typings and the authoring skill
document the entry, the agent events and a live agent status recipe.
* fix(plugins): the plugin page names the workspace.changed subscription
* fix(plugins): workers activate only by default export, and say so when it is named
Orca calls the worker module's default export. A module with a named `activate` and no default
now fails to start with an error naming the fix (`export default function activate(orca)`),
instead of being called by a fallback; docs, typings and the skill say default export.
hello-worker-panel gains a picker setting (suggestionOrder) the worker reads.

Plugin dev loop: TS workers, hot reload with state, orca plugin dev watch, authoring skill (#36982)
* feat(plugins): build-less TypeScript workers A worker's main may be .ts/.mts. The plugin host installs module.registerHooks scoped to the plugin folder: .ts files are transpiled with the frames' sucrase options (lines kept, inline source map, source maps on), relative imports fall back to the frames' candidate files, and a value import of the type-only 'orca/worker' fails with a clear error. Needs engines.orca >=1.4.246. * feat(plugins): components panels hot reload with their state - In dev folders a save swaps only the hidden guest: keyed memory atoms are handed to the new guest (ui.retain → ui.hydrate memory), dropped when an atom's version changes. - A save that fails to load keeps the last good render and shows an inline file:line:col error banner; the next good save clears it. A subtle Reloaded mark follows a reload. - Transpile and import errors carry line and column; dev worker restarts keep storage. * feat(plugins): orca plugin dev watch One command for the inner loop: refreshes .orca/types, dev-loads the folder, follows its frame and worker logs (plugins.getLogs gains an optional cursor), prints reloads (optional devChangeCount on list entries) and status changes, and unloads on Ctrl-C. --json streams NDJSON events for agents. * feat(skills): orca-plugin-authoring bundled skill guide A guide for agents to build Orca plugins end to end (decision table, build-less rules, the dev watch loop, test/check, validate, release-entry, approvals, gotchas) with references generated from the component catalog, host API table, event schemas, manifest schema and CLI specs, checked for drift. Fixes the components template's Reset to set(count, 0). * feat(plugins): orca plugin dev watch --check; test kit details in the authoring skill - --check runs orca plugin check after the load and after each reload (one at a time; saves made meanwhile fold into one rerun) and prints each panel's render or errors inline, as a `check` event with --json. Local folders only, since it runs the plugin's code here. - The orca-plugin-authoring guide's Test and check section now documents orca plugin test and check from #36969 exactly (JSON results, exit codes, test placement, the orca/testing kit and its common mistakes), and the loop uses dev watch --check. * refactor(plugins): move the components renderer's timing and helper constants to their own module |

Build-less TS/TSX plugins, typings and authoring tools (#36918)
* feat(plugins): build-less TS/TSX plugins, typings and authoring tools - Plugin frames transpile .ts/.tsx/.mts/.jsx on load (sucrase on a shared worker thread with a 2 s budget, cached in main), resolve relative imports to exact files, and refuse bare package imports by name. Components and html panel/editor entries may be .ts/.tsx. - orca plugin types writes typings for the components orca module, window.orca, worker activate(orca), host.call and events into .orca/types, from one host-typings generator. - orca plugin create --template components; templates omit publisher and target 1.4.246. - orca plugin release-entry, dev inspect and restart; validate:plugin checks named files. - Guest console errors reach orca plugin logs; dev workers restart on edits; the dev watcher ignores .git, .orca and node_modules; Git and folder installs cannot replace catalog installs. - examples/plugins/hello-tsx, docs, and the plugin-buildless-tsx e2e spec. * ci: run the Windows parity probes with one tsgo checker tsconfig.node peaks near 22 GB with tsgo's default four checkers (each holds its own types) and about 16 GB with one; the 16 GB Windows runner paged the native probe past its 900 s timeout once this branch's package.json change triggered the job. One checker gives the same diagnostics (verified locally with --parity-only); the timing benchmark is unchanged. |

Orchestration v3: coordinators end their turn and Orca wakes them (#36137)
* fix(orchestration): keep a terminal's mail from being consumed by another terminal, and let settled structured workers take further tasks A plain orchestration check consumed the named terminal's mail whatever terminal ran it, so a coordinator checking a worker's handle took the worker's message. A consuming check from a terminal whose own live pane is a different terminal's is now refused; --peek and --all still read it without consuming. worker-start --terminal and dispatch --inject routed a structured worker (structworker_ handle) as a terminal and failed with terminal_unsupported_for_agent_session. Any agent-session party now takes its task as a send into its session, while a structured worker keeps the pane and process authority its first Dispatch had. * fix(orchestration): fence check by live terminal incl. acks; defer injecting structured workers Review fixes for the mail fence and structured worker reuse: - The check fence compares the caller's and the mailbox's live terminal process instead of recorded panes, so exited terminals keep the old behaviour and two processes sharing a recorded pane are told apart. It also covers --ack in every read mode. The caller lookup is shared with the lifecycle caller fence. - dispatch --inject to a structured worker stays refused as before: an injected Dispatch takes no custody, so releasing the first Dispatch could close a session working on the second. worker-start --terminal reuse transfers custody and stays supported. - worker-start decides pane-less chat authority from the resolved party and passes the session down, so delivery and next commands no longer re-derive it from the address spelling. - Receipts name an agent session, not a chat. * fix(orchestration): an exited caller's env pane names no caller The caller lookup fell back to the env pane key whenever the env handle was not live, so an exited terminal's pane resolved to whatever terminal now occupies it, and a tmux worker's own check was refused. The pane fallback now applies only when the env handle is not proven exited. * fix(terminal): keep surviving terminals streaming to main after a restart Main now attaches every live local daemon session it adopts at startup, not only ones a window pane or remote view is showing, and re-attaches after a daemon endpoint drop. The attach snapshot seeds main's screen, tail and title, and an attached-but-silent agent gets an output clock so readiness can see it has gone quiet. Waits on a survivor main could not attach fail at once instead of timing out. * fix(terminal): restore only pane-less streams after endpoint loss; one attach state - Endpoint loss re-attaches in main only sessions no renderer view reports; a pane restores its own. - The attach hide skips views mid-attach and leaves a pane's own hidden claim alone on failure. - One per-session stream state (attaching, attached, lost) replaces three sets and is forgotten on exit. - Waits retry the attach before failing, including after a failed re-attach. - The output clock starts wherever a reattach result is seeded, so pane reattaches get it too. * refactor(terminal): attach survivors at inventory adoption only; waits on unattached survivors fail at once; one ptyId output clock * test(e2e): scope the restart attach spec's terminal listing to the unopened workspace * fix(terminal): narrow survivor attach: waits behave as on main, one quiet clock per generation, keep main's hidden mark on failed attach * Teach the orchestration guide when to hand off and to end the turn after dispatch * Rewrap a messaging reference line * Keep the original placement default and skill trigger; keep the accuracy fixes * Point DAG retries at --retry-of and drop the last blocking-wait instruction * Check the served orchestration guide by its new worker heading * Apply council review: best-effort wake, full completion rule, restored safety rules, fixed scope and settled wording * Say when the orchestration skill applies, and prefer own subagents otherwise * Name the polling, steering, checkout, and worker fan-out habits to avoid * fix(orchestration): wake a coordinator whose turn ended while its program still reports working Claude Code keeps its OSC 7501 report on working while an agent-teams teammate is alive, even after the lead's own turn ends. The mailbox gate, idle edges and tui-idle all read that report, so worker mail was stored and never typed. A hook turn end newer than the program's working report now counts as rest; hook rows re-classify the PTY so the existing idle edge delivers. Agent Teams panes now join their claude hook rows. * fix(orchestration): compare the lead's own turn end, not the row's receipt A child's hook restamps the row's receivedAt while the lead's turn is still the old one, which could mark rest under a newer program working report. Use the lead's turn-end stamp on this runtime's clock, after the latest input. * feat(orchestration): a consuming check marks the batch it returns as handled * Say why watch scripts and open waits block the wake * feat(orchestration): release settled workers automatically after a grace period * fix(orchestration): use checked row reads for delivery cursors * fix(orchestration): trust a live own-process turn end instead of comparing clocks Drop programActivitySince and the turn-end clock mapping: replays and SSH host clocks made the comparison unreliable. A Claude lead counts as at rest under a program working report when its hook turn end is a live transition from this pane's host and launch, past the existing input and respawn floors. * test(orchestration): drop cast in ack no-op check * test(orchestration): seed legacy outstanding batch for held chat nudges * test(orchestration): built CLI check hands its batch over * test(orchestration): annotate unchanged casts and stub the keep item in tab menu tests * fix(orchestration): let real input, explicit release and host releases converge with automatic release - Record worker takeover at the owning runtime when it accepts UI input, before the bytes reach the PTY. - Run remote attachment releases through the same per-resource single-flight as local ones. - Apply the confirmed-release home projection when host observation reports a host-side release, and carry the host deadline in fleet snapshots. - Prove restart recovery with a file-backed database reopened by a fresh runtime. * test(orchestration): classify the keep RPC's worker fields instead of counting methods * fix(orchestration): checked delivery reads and observer and recovery help * refactor(orchestration): end a check when it hands over a batch; wake rides the wait result * fix(orchestration): refuse an automatic close after real input, join remote releases, converge the home - An automatic close checks the terminal's last driving-input time right before closing and keeps a worker someone typed into after worker_done; typing itself does no orchestration database work. - Remote releases share the per-resource single-flight with local release, so a home worker-release joins the host timer's close. - Host fleet snapshots and federationShow report released and the pending deadline; the home applies the existing release projection inside its observation fence. - Real restart tests: a file-backed database reopened by a fresh runtime releases a missed deadline once and finishes interrupted requests. * fix(orchestration): receipt a shared wake batch on arrival and report the applied Run ack * fix(orchestration): deliver the wake to a working coordinator; agents queue mid-turn input The wake was typed only into a live idle pane, so a Claude lead whose program status stayed working (teammate alive) never got it. Agents queue or steer text typed mid-turn, so a pane takes mail when live idle or working; dialogs, permission prompts, exited agents, unsettled panes and cold-parked Enter still hold it. Drops the held-batch Enter deferral and the per-turn-end hook logic. * fix(orchestration): record each remote release request before joining, publish archives only through the conditional commit - Each remote release caller records its own request before joining a close under way, and the close decides on the current row, so an explicit release that overlaps the host timer clears the automatic deadline. - Remote capture publishes its archive through commitWorkerTerminalArchiveForRelease, so a retain during capture leaves no stale archive for worker-read. - Remote worker-show projects the fenced host deadline and its next action. - The input guard lives in its own module instead of the scheduler. * feat(orchestration): start a worker in one step; worker-start creates the coordinator's Run when none is bound worker-start --spec now creates and binds a Run for a root coordinator with no bound Run, through the same path run-create uses, and names the Run it created or joined in every receipt. Workers on a Dispatch keep starting helpers in their own Run and never get a new one. A new CLI against an older runtime runs run-create and retries; old CLIs need no change. * fix(orchestration): drop the older-runtime fallback; check the spec before a Run is created The CLI fallback matched a refusal text the client decorates, could not prove the caller was a root coordinator on an older runtime, and recovered an inner run-create under the worker-start command. Older runtimes keep their refusal and the guide says to run-create first there. The prompt budget check now runs before worker-start can create a Run. * Route report-back requests to coordinators, complete the steer command, and label the wake loop branches * Say workers are done only when worker_done confirms, wait for helpers to settle, and let bare-shell workers exit * Route report-back requests away from handoff and steer supervised workers through their mailbox * docs(orchestration): teach auto-handled check, retry-request and inbox recovery in the guides * Describe the mid-turn wake in the messaging reference * docs(orchestration): say terminal workers are released 2 minutes after worker_done - The guide's Completion section, the reuse recipe and the recovery reference now describe the automatic release and its autoReleaseAt deadline: reuse or worker-retain before it; explicit worker-release still works and is required for chat workers and workers without a deadline. - The worker preamble says the terminal stays available until Orca releases it, about 2 minutes after worker_done unless retained. - Regenerated the bundled guides. * feat(orchestration): receipts say when to end the turn * feat(orchestration): tell the coordinator when a worker stops without worker_done * test+docs: worker stop reports * fix(orchestration): judge the empty-check stop with execution-host verdicts * test: drop casts from worker stop tests * Say that report-back requests still mean end the turn * Say that report-back requests still mean end the turn * fix(orchestration): stop reports wait for children, keep their Dispatch, and relay intact * fix(orchestration): a stop belongs to the Dispatch active when it was seen; restored stamps announce nothing * fix(orchestration): never say to stop while a remote worker runs * Shrink the orchestration guide to the end-state workflow * fix(orchestration): stop reports quote the agent's last words, or the screen for errors and prompts * fix(orchestration): withhold the stop while chat failure mail is off * test: a clean finish quotes the agent's last words * fix(orchestration): stop asking workers for heartbeats Workers are no longer told to send periodic heartbeats. A heartbeat that still arrives from an older worker or peer only records last_heartbeat_at: it is stored already handled, so it never lands in a coordinator inbox and never wakes a coordinator or a check --wait. Removes the stale-heartbeat warning and the heartbeat interval plumbing that only fed the preamble. * fix(settings): remove the worker heartbeat controls The Worker heartbeats switch and Heartbeat interval field only changed the worker preamble text, which no longer mentions heartbeats. Saved values are dropped on load as retired settings. * fix(orchestration): wake a coordinator that reports program status but never sets a title Program status only re-classified a pane that had a title, so a titleless agent (agy) never got a live status and the wake gate refused it. * fix(orchestration): a new Run no longer cuts a coordinator off from its earlier Run * test(orchestration): drop heartbeat-batch cases the handled heartbeat row removed * fix(orchestration): redact capabilities from a stop report's quoted output * fix(orchestration): never wake a mailbox for a heartbeat One rule at the runtime notification entry replaces per-call-site read checks, so mutation replay and federated control-mail import stay silent for heartbeats too. * Shrink the orchestration references and worker preamble to the end-state workflow * Name the older-Orca bind refusal as worker-start prints it * Owner-fence test: a refused foreign ack changes nothing, whatever the worker's own check already handled * Integration: drop the duplicate consumingCheck after merging #34043 and #35293 * Integration: await the worker-start next receipt before naming its Run * Apply review round 1: drain to zero, release without auto-release, retry after stop, Run before a DAG * Apply review round 2: start ready DAG Tasks, block when no failure wake, replay sends by request ID * Apply review round 3: one receipt-based wait rule for starts and wakes * fix(orchestration): a worker stopped without reporting needs action, and stop keeps its output worker-list projected a stop-reported attempt as live, in_progress, no action. It now projects finished_unverified with a worker-read recovery until mail reaches the worker. worker-stop closed the terminal before anything archived it, so release reported the archive unavailable; stop now archives the output first. * Revert "Owner-fence test: a refused foreign ack changes nothing, whatever the worker's own check already handled" This reverts commit |

plugins: derive the publisher from where a plugin comes from, like a Go module path (#36281)
The manifest publisher is deprecated and ignored for catalog and Git installs: catalog installs use the listing id, Git URL installs the URL owner, folders 'local' (or their still-declared publisher). Existing installs keep their key. A format 2 manifest may omit publisher only with engines.orca >=1.4.246, so older Orca reports 'requires Orca X' instead of failing to parse it. The v2 catalog documents an optional ownerId, which older Orca already strips. |

plugins: Plugin Alpha (#35470)
* i18n(plugins): drop retired plugin strings from the Portuguese catalog
* i18n: keep the empty project group in the Spanish and French catalogs
* i18n: retire translated entries for plugin strings this change rewords or removes
* plugins: syntax contributions
A plugin can contribute up to 16 syntaxes: a TextMate grammar, optional
language configuration, and the file extensions and names it claims.
Main validates every grammar when the plugin is approved (shape, scope,
size, nesting) and lists only the file associations. A language's
grammars cross IPC only when a matching file opens, and includes must
resolve inside the same plugin. Catalog releases can declare syntax.
* plugins: highlight files with plugin syntaxes
Files Orca shows as plain text use a matching plugin syntax. Its grammar
compiles once in a worker that stays warm between edits and runs under
core's per-line limits; a worker that stops reporting progress or crashes
is terminated, the language stays plain, and the plugin card says so.
Tokens reach Monaco as semantic tokens, so Monaco asks only for models
shown in an editor, keeps one request per model, and keeps painting the
previous colors, shifted by edits, until the new pass lands. Plugin
languages borrow ids from a pool of fixed Monaco languages, counted by
the editors using them; a language no editor uses moves its models back
to plain text, and the least recently used idle slots are reused first.
* plugins: Gleam syntax example pack
An official-style data plugin with the upstream Gleam TextMate grammar
(Apache-2.0, provenance and license alongside) and language
configuration. A test installs it through the production inspection and
loads it through the syntax registry.
* plugins: list themes, icon themes and syntaxes in the marketplace preview
The preview's Includes line named only language packs, commands,
shortcuts, VM recipes, panels and events, so a theme or syntax pack read
as "Manifest metadata only".
* fix(plugins): a syntax failure belongs to one revision, not the syntax id
A grammar that failed in revision A kept the plugin card flagged after revision B
replaced it. Failures are now keyed by id@revision, matching the runtime slots,
and dropped when the installed list no longer contains that revision.
* chore(plugins): format the Gleam example grammar
* plugins: import the Monaco editor API, not the full bundle, from the syntax runtime
* plugins: type the syntax engine against the Monaco API it uses
* plugins: suggest a catalog plugin for files Orca can't open
When a file shows as plain text or as a binary Orca can't display, and a
cached catalog lists a release whose fileTypes include its extension, the
editor offers it: View plugin opens the marketplace preview (never an
install), Not now hides it for the session, and Don't suggest remembers
the extension. Suggestions come only from cached, verified catalogs, skip
kill-listed releases and anything an installed (even disabled) plugin
already handles, and can be turned off in Plugins settings. A release's
fileTypes must match its manifest's syntax extensions.
* fix(plugins): scope the file-type suggestion's Not now to the file type
The editor stays mounted when its file changes, so a single hidden flag
suppressed the suggestion for the next file type too. Track which file
type was hidden instead.
* plugins: type the plugin-owned settings normalizer inputs
* plugins: update the preview-request callback ref after render, not during it
* test(plugins): smoke specs for themes, syntaxes and file-type suggestions
Three end-to-end specs join the demo and marketplace journeys:
- an app theme and icon theme apply from Settings and fall back when the
plugin is disabled;
- a plugin syntax highlights an already-open file, re-highlights it after a
grammar update, and lets go when disabled;
- a v2 catalog release with fileTypes is suggested for an unknown file,
View plugin opens its preview without installing, and Don't suggest is
remembered.
The marketplace spec's Git fixture helpers move to a shared helper.
* test(plugins): say why the file-type suggestion e2e needs a longer timeout
* test(editor): install Monaco's cancellation guard in the owner view-state test
The test mocks monaco-setup, which skips the guard production installs, so
a disposed editor's pending word highlight surfaced as two unhandled
"Canceled" rejections once plugin syntaxes added a render. The run
passed but reported errors.
* plugins: plugin app themes recolor the code editor
When a plugin app theme is active, every Monaco surface (editor, diffs,
notebook cells, code excerpts, automation prompt) uses a theme derived
from the colors the document is actually painted with: editor background,
text, line numbers, cursor, selection, current line and widgets. Syntax
colors stay the built-in light or dark ones; if text would fall below
4.5:1 or a syntax color below 3:1 on the plugin's editor background, the
editor keeps its built-in theme. Colors are resolved to hex through the
browser's own parser, so color-mix() and other CSS color forms work. The
theme is redefined when the plugin updates or the mode changes, and the
editor returns to the built-in theme when the plugin theme is deselected,
disabled or removed.
* refactor(plugins): one module per contribution point and a single points table
The manifest's contributes object, the execution-profile derivation and the
catalog type list now read one PLUGIN_CONTRIBUTION_POINTS table instead of
three hand-kept lists.
* refactor(plugins): express id and path rules as patterns
Plugin ids and relative paths now validate with a regex first, so a generated
JSON Schema can carry them as `pattern`. The predicate only adds what a
pattern cannot (reserved names, Windows device names), and a bad value
reports one issue instead of two.
* plugins: document every manifest and catalog field in the schema
Each field now carries a description, examples and the Orca release that
first reads it, and each contribution item has a named fragment id. Manifest
v2 accepts an optional $schema key for editor completion, and the catalog
gains an authoring schema built from the same field definitions.
* plugins: generate published JSON Schemas and author references from zod
pnpm generate:plugin-schemas writes schemas/plugins/orca-plugin.schema.json,
schemas/plugins/orca-marketplace.v2.schema.json and the matching reference
pages under docs/reference from the runtime schemas. A test fails when the
committed files drift, when a field lacks a description or since-version,
when a documented example does not validate, and when the schema and the
runtime disagree on bundled manifests or known-bad inputs.
* plugins: report every manifest and catalog mistake with its path
Manifest and catalog validation now lists up to eight distinct problems as
`contributes.themes[0].label: must not be empty` instead of zod's first raw
message, and rewrites parser wording (required, unknown keys, allowed
values, limits) into what the author should change.
* plugins: say which Orca a newer plugin or catalog release needs
A manifest the strict schema rejects is pre-read for engines.orca and
manifestVersion first, so a plugin built for a newer Orca reports
"requires Orca >=X (this is Y)" instead of unknown-key noise. A catalog
release whose minimumOrca is above this build stays listed but is refused
before anything is downloaded.
* plugins: version the published schemas and pin v2 fields to a real release
Schemas move under schemas/plugins/v2/ so a later breaking format can
publish beside them without changing what a pinned URL means, and the
example plugin authors copy carries its own copy for offline completion.
Fields new with manifest v2 cite one constant, PLUGIN_MANIFEST_V2_SINCE
(1.4.232, the release after the latest tag), and a test fails once a tag at
or above it ships without manifest v2. The reference documents format 1 as
legacy.
* plugins: open review when enabling a plugin that was never approved
Dismissing the review dialog records keep-disabled without consent. Turning
the plugin's switch back on then only cleared the disable, so it returned
to "Needs review" with no dialog. Enabling now opens the review whenever
the result is still pending.
* plugins: release details for the plugin detail page
Catalog releases may carry a license, repository and homepage (https only),
an updatedAt date and a short plain-text changelog; an invalid value is
dropped so it never hides the plugin. Manifests may declare license and
homepage. Marketplace listings flatten name, version and those details, and
installed plugins report license, homepage, repository and the version a
rollback would restore.
The JSON lint-staged step no longer fails a commit whose only staged JSON
files are generated schemas the formatter ignores.
* plugins: fold in the schema review
- Parity runs both ways: documented examples also pass their zod field,
bundled manifests pass both the schema and the runtime, and manifest and
catalog negatives (traversal, oversize, wrong types, duplicates) fail in
both. A table lists every rule only the runtime can enforce, and each is
named in the description of the field it constrains.
- The published files carry the format in their names
(orca-plugin.v2.schema.json, orca-marketplace.v2.schema.json); $id stays
on main until the v2 release, and a test demands the release tag once it
exists.
- The v1 since-value is 1.4.160, the first release that read plugins, and a
test pins it to the tags. engines.orca documents that format 2 needs at
least the release that ships it.
- v2 catalog sources strip unknown keys like the rest of the entry, and the
v2 runtime schema is derived from the one authoring definition, whose
plugins field documents the duplicate-id rule. Contribution types and
categories declare uniqueItems; fileTypes items come from the file-type
schema itself.
- Issue messages no longer depend on zod's English: a missing field is told
from the input, and every pattern carries its own message. Unknown-key
lists show five keys plus a count, and each line is capped at 200
characters.
- A prerelease host (1.5.0-rc.1) now ranks below its release, as in semver.
* plugins: read the rollback version on demand, not while listing
The plugin list is rebuilt at startup and on every plugin change, and each
installed plugin cost a directory read to find the version a rollback would
restore. That moves to plugins:getRollbackVersion, which the detail page
calls when it shows the action, and a test pins the list build to zero
filesystem calls.
* plugins: v1.4.232 shipped without manifest v2, so v2 fields cite 1.4.233
The release-tag check caught it: v1.4.232 was cut from main before this
stack landed.
* plugins: list installed plugins while the plugin system is off
With the system off the service discovers nothing, so plugins:list returned
an empty list and the settings page could not show what is installed. The
client list now reads the install tree on demand in that state and projects
every plugin as disabled; nothing is activated or started, and startup with
the system off still does no plugin I/O. Older clients that hid the list
while off are unaffected.
Also for the plugin page: plugins:getInstalledManifest returns one installed
plugin's parsed manifest on demand, marketplace installs report the catalog
ref beside its URL, and the listing type declares the release record it
already carried.
* plugins: final schema decisions for catalogs and versioning
Catalog
- The catalog is orca-catalog.json with a required catalogVersion: 2; a
client that sees a higher version refuses with "update Orca to browse
this catalog". New clients read it first and fall back to the frozen
orca-marketplace.json, which export-legacy-plugin-catalog.mjs generates.
- Parsing is tolerant at every level: unknown keys are stripped, unreadable
entries and releases are skipped, over-limit lists are trimmed, a repeated
id keeps the first copy, invalid display-only fields are dropped.
pnpm validate:plugin reports each of those as an error for authors and CI.
- Entries list releases newest first; Orca offers the first whose
minimumOrca it meets, and shows "Needs Orca X" only when none fits.
Versioning
- engines.orca is the only gate and must cover the newest since-version of
every field and enum value used (capabilities, events and built-in actions
now carry per-value since tables). The check is part of the v2 schema, so
validation, catalog checks and installs all enforce it.
- pluginApi is optional in format 2 (defaults to 1) and refused on data and
instructional plugins. Format 2 rejects unknown keys at every level,
including engines, author and every contribution item.
- contributes.agents is reserved for coding-agent definitions and must be
empty in format 2 until their format exists.
- Plugins are gated against the newer of the app version and the newest
since this build defines, so development and local builds, whose package
version only moves at release, read the fields they introduce.
The policy is written into the generated references and pinned by tests.
* plugins: one-click install for content-only plugins, and the verified profile on the list
installMarketplacePlugin takes an optional enableIfData. Main then turns the
plugin on in the same step only when the installed, verified manifest is
execution: data, approving exactly the fingerprint it just installed through
the normal consent path; anything else comes back needsReview: true, whatever
the renderer sends. Older hosts ignore the field and leave the plugin pending.
Installed plugins now report their verified execution profile, so the plugin
page never infers "content only" from the absence of a worker.
* plugins: images and contribution summaries for plugin pages
Manifest format 2 gains cover and screenshots (alt text required), and its
icon must be a square PNG or WebP. Images are checked at install from their
headers only: static PNG, JPEG or WebP, per-kind pixel and byte limits, at
most 4096 pixels a side and 8 MB in total, so nothing is ever decoded to
decide trust.
Catalog releases may carry images stored in the catalog repository and
pinned by SHA-256, a summary of what they add, and the capabilities they ask
for, so a listing can show the plugin completely before anything is
downloaded. All three are dropped when unreadable; the summary and
capabilities must match the manifest exactly at install. pnpm validate:plugin
checks each image's hash, size and format against the repository files.
* plugins: serve plugin and catalog images from verified bytes
Images reach the renderer only as orca-plugin-image URLs, which main serves
with nosniff and the type it read from the header:
- catalog images are read from the catalog repository at the fetched
commit, kept only when their hash, size and format match, and cached by
SHA-256; a listing references only those;
- preview images are cached by hash before the staging tree is deleted;
- installed plugins' images are named by plugin, install hash and slot and
re-checked on every read, so listing plugins still reads no files.
Listings, previews and installed plugins carry an images field the plugin
page can render without fetching anything else.
* plugins: catalog theme palettes, and one-click never approves a dev override
Catalog releases may list up to four theme palettes (hex colors only) so a
listing can draw theme cards before install; they are display-only and
dropped when invalid. One-click enable now also refuses when a development
override shadows the installed plugin, since those are not the bytes the
user just chose.
* plugins: one-click approves only the fingerprint the user saw
installMarketplacePlugin takes an optional expectedFingerprint, the
preview's consentFingerprint. With enableIfData, main now approves only
when the installed fingerprint equals it, so bytes that changed between
preview and install stay pending for review instead of being enabled. The
release commit is already pinned by resolvedCommit. Older hosts ignore the
field.
* plugins: gate manifest v2 on 1.4.242 and publish schemas under docs/schemas
v1.4.240 shipped without manifest v2, so the first release that reads it is 1.4.242.
The root-directory guard refuses a new top-level schemas/ folder.
* plugins: read unvalidated schema input through a typed object guard and break the image validation import cycle
* plugins: one place decides an installed plugin's status word
Pull the status ranking, label and enabled/needs-review checks out of the settings row so the
coming list rows and detail page read the same words. No visual change.
* plugins: one list entry shape for installed and catalog plugins
PluginListEntry joins an installed plugin to its catalog listing (or stands for a listing alone),
and matchesPluginSearch is the one search both lists use. No visual change.
* plugins: usePluginCatalog owns catalog loading, refresh and preview
Sources, listings, refresh, the install/update preview and the outside preview request move out
of PluginMarketplaceBrowser into one hook the coming list and detail page share. The browser
keeps only its view state. No visual change.
* plugins: one plugin list with fixed slots, a plugin page, and inline states
- Installed plugins first, then one group per catalog (verified/unverified · owner or URL), capped
at 6 rows with Show N more; every plugin appears once
- Rows: the name opens the plugin page and covers the row; status, action, switch and ⋯ are
fixed-width sibling slots in Tab order. Update {version} is the action when a catalog has a newer
release; Stopped offers Restart with a red mark on the switch; Blocked offers Remove…
- Plugin page in the same pane: what it adds (commands with platform shortcut chips, panels,
recipes, contribution summary), what it can access, logs, and info. Back link, Alt+← or ⌘[
return focus to the row
- States inside the list: skeletons, a catalog that fails only affects its own group, no results
with Clear search, nothing installed. Plugins off keeps the installed list visible, dimmed
- Add plugin ▾ (folder, Git URL) replaces Install plugin; Plugin system stays at the top
- Catalog listings now expose their release (name, version, minimum Orca, types) to the renderer
* plugins: filter by category and catalog, one review for Update all, Needs newer Orca
- Filter popover (category, catalog) next to search; search and filters show every match
- Update all opens one review: updates that ask for new access are expanded with what's new, the
rest are one line, any can be unticked; installs run one at a time
- A catalog release that needs a newer Orca says so and disables Install, in the row and the page
- Installing from a plugin page shows a review with only access and source, since the page just
showed what it adds
* plugins: plugin page uses the manifest name; Off status word; official isn't a category
* plugins: catalog sources live in the Add plugin menu
* plugins: search takes its own row when the list is narrow
* plugins: release notes, license and links on the plugin page; roll back names its version
* plugins: fix list review findings
Plugin page owns the pane (back link and plugin header only); Adds to Orca names
every contribution; access never reads as 'nothing' when the check failed; filter
kinds have readable names; Update all is reachable, fetches once per open and
routes updates needing review; installed plugins join their own catalog;
attention-first order; paused list while plugins are off.
* plugins: readable category names on the plugin page
* plugins: Update all keeps its set; reviews queue; updates only from the plugin's own catalog
* plugins: name what an off or unreviewed plugin adds from its manifest; join catalogs by url and ref
* plugins: Needs Orca checks use the version plugins are gated against
Main gates plugins on pluginHostVersion, the newer of the app version and the
newest since-version the build reads. The plugin page compared releases to the
raw app version, so a development or local build showed Needs Orca for plugins
it would install.
* test(plugins): e2e journeys follow the redesigned plugin list
The page offers "Turn on plugins" while the system is off, catalog rows share
the installed rows' data-plugin-key, the review action is "Review", and an
enabled plugin reads "On".
* plugins: describe access from the verified execution profile, never from "no worker"
A commands-and-shortcuts plugin's page said "Content only. It has no code that runs."
because the page treated "no worker" as "no code". A worker plugin without capabilities
read "runs in a sandbox". The page now classifies from the catalog release's execution
profile (install refuses bytes whose manifest differs), the fetched manifest, or the
installed manifest's profile from the plugin list's `execution` field. Unknown stays
"Reading…" or "Couldn't read", never content only. The review dialog uses the same
profile, and an older host that omits it is reviewed as instructional.
* fix(plugins): read revision-scoped syntax failures on detail pages
* plugins: use the Blocks glyph for icon themes in the plugin page
* plugins: update latest-value refs after render in the update dialog and page navigation
* i18n: retire translated entries for plugin strings this change rewords or removes
* plugins: one action to install, inline consent, and a picture-first catalog
Settings > Plugins no longer opens a confirm dialog and then a review dialog.
- Content-only catalog plugins install from their card or page in one click; main
turns them on only when the verified manifest is data. Undo stays in place for 10s.
- Plugins that run code or instructions show "If you install <Name>, it can:" on the
host security surface above one Install & enable, which stays off until the access
rows are read, and approves exactly the fingerprint shown. Review of an installed
plugin happens on its page too (Enable / Keep off); Remove stays in its menu.
- The catalog is a grid of cards drawn from what each plugin is (its theme colours once
installed, a code sample, keycaps), with the name as a stretched link and one action.
- The page pins the listing it opened, says "Newer version available" instead of
swapping rows, and previews are prefetched only on hover intent, capped per visit.
- The plugin system switch, file suggestions, catalog sources and development folders
move into a header menu; amber text uses a contrast-safe token.
* plugins: give the reworded no-access line its own key so English shows the new copy
* plugins: pin installs to the release shown, warn by what a plugin carries, disclose replaced shortcuts
- The page pins the listing it opened; a preview of any other release (commit, catalog
commit or execution profile) leaves Install & enable off and shows "Newer version
available". One-click installs from a card refuse the same mismatch.
- Warnings are the union of the verified profile and the contributions: a panel that
also adds commands gets the instructions warning, never "bounded" or "own files only";
unknown contributions over-warn. Access rows follow the same rule.
- Shortcuts that replace one of yours are named in the consent before install, from the
manifest or the catalog summary; the shortcut list itself stays in Adds to Orca.
- Pages paint from the catalog summaries, capabilities and theme palettes, and show the
cover (or the card's art) as a hero, with screenshots in a strip and lightbox.
- Installing fills a reserved status line and keeps its action row (Undo, Use now), so
the page doesn't move; the settings scroller keeps a stable gutter.
- Row art names the plugin type instead of initials, rows drop the "Needs review" word,
the content hash moves into the menu, and card art is tinted and coloured.
* plugins: catalog covers on cards
* plugins: Review reopens its page after Back; hero art and stable status line follow what an installed plugin carries
* test(plugins): e2e journeys review and install on the plugin page, with no dialogs
* plugins: install exactly the release shown, classify from the full manifest, polish the page
Code review:
- A page or card arms Install only when the preview matches everything the listing showed
(catalog commit, release commit, content hash, execution); any change, including a
catalog-only refresh, reads "Newer version available". One-click installs send the
preview's fingerprint as expectedFingerprint, so main turns on only those bytes.
- Install stays off while a catalog refresh is in flight.
- Trust uses the full verified preview manifest when present; a capped catalog summary
counts as unknown and gets the stronger warning.
- The installed-manifest read is keyed by plugin and installed revision, so a same-key
update never pairs old contents with the new fingerprint.
- A failed Undo shows its error on the card or page and keeps Undo to retry.
- The security-surface test now covers the inline consent instead of the removed dialog.
Visual:
- Lightbox: close button clear of the image, "1 of N" with previous/next and arrow keys,
content scrolls on short windows, focus returns to the opening thumbnail.
- Keycap art shows the plugin's own first shortcut, larger, with the platform's keys.
- The hero fills the content column; a screenshot identical to the cover isn't repeated.
- "Change in Shortcuts" is a link; the chip says "Adds commands" (or "Runs a worker",
"Adds a panel", "Content only"); the disabled button says "Reading what it can access…".
- A content-only plugin's action row keeps fixed slots, so its note doesn't move on install.
* plugins: keep the decision above the fold, route suggestions to the page, final review fixes
- The page shows the decision (Install, the consent, Enable) before the picture, and the
picture is capped and cropped from its centre, so the button is in view at 1280x800 and
900x700. Nothing grows after first paint.
- The consent gives no access verdict while the plugin is still being read.
- A file-type suggestion opens the plugin's page instead of the old install dialog; that
dialog now serves updates only.
- A theme plugin reserves its "Use now" line from first paint; the action slot and its
button share one width.
- The file-suggestion toggle reports a failed save; a failed Undo is reported once, on
the card or page that offered it.
- Cards show a plain trust chip ("Content only", "Adds commands"); the local and bundled
group reads "Bundled & local".
- Install error copy moves into the protected plugin namespace, and the new consent
components join the language-pack security pins.
- Dead code goes: the keybinding consent preview (its conflict helper stays), its strings,
trustRunsNothing and the access-only preview plumbing.
* test(plugins): the file-type suggestion opens the plugin page, not a dialog
* plugins: the install decision sits top-right beside the name; no plugin on/off switch in the UI
- Plugin page: Install (content only), Install & enable (disabled until its access is read),
Enable / Keep off (installed, waiting for review) and the installed switch share one slot
top-right of the title. The consent sits directly under the header with no button of its
own; the "Can't reach anything outside its own files" note sits on the line under the
publisher, which every state reserves, so nothing moves between states.
- Removed "Turn off plugins" from the ⋯ menu and the "Turn on plugins" button from the off
state. The setting and all gating stay: off now comes only from policy, and the page says
so without a switch.
- e2e journeys turn plugins on through the setting and use the page's one button.
* plugins: restore Turn on plugins, drop Undo, add Remove to installed card menu
Plugins stay opt-in, so the off state keeps its Turn on button; only the
menu's Turn off item stays removed. Installed catalog cards get a sibling
more-actions menu with Remove (immediate, inline error) and Turn off/on,
inside a fixed-width action slot so the footer doesn't shift.
* test(plugins): installing a theme plugin never changes the active theme
* fix(plugins): confirm card removal before deleting data
* fix(plugins): pause review queue when leaving plugin page
* fix(plugins): disclose execution changes before updating
* refactor(plugins): share single and bulk update review
* refactor(plugins): share installed card and row actions
* test(plugins): cover confirmed removal and shared update review
* feat(plugins): offer icon and terminal themes after install
* test(plugins): capture settled review dialog screenshots
* fix(plugins): make installed contributions discoverable and actionable
* fix(plugins): label card-install toast Try it and mark terminal-theme Use now buttons
The toast action opens the plugin page rather than applying a theme, so it
always says Try it. Terminal themes often share their app themes' names, so
their Use now buttons carry a terminal icon. Update the update-review e2e for
the Use now accessible names.
* fix(plugins): apply a theme plugin's themes when the user installs or enables it
Installing (card or page) or enabling a plugin that adds themes now applies its
app theme (matching the current light/dark mode), icon theme and terminal theme
at once, with a 'Now using' toast whose Switch back restores the previous
selections. Updates, startup discovery and catalog refreshes never apply.

* plugins: call toast actions through a typed button in tests; key card art by stable names
* i18n(plugins): drop retired plugin strings from the Portuguese catalog
* test(plugins): say why the update review e2e needs a longer timeout
* i18n: retire translated entries for plugin strings this change rewords or removes
* refactor(plugins): organize main plugin files by responsibility
* refactor(plugins): group shared plugin schemas and contracts
* refactor(plugins): organize renderer plugin surfaces
* plugins: keep the plugin service under the line limit after the folder moves
* refactor(plugins): move the JSON object guard beside the manifest schemas
* test(plugins): move the flaky-test baseline entries with the worker tests they count
* test(plugins): point the panel lifetime test at the reorganized plugin folders
* plugins: reserve skills, mcpServers, taskSources, connections and settings contribution keys
Format 2 accepts each key only as an empty list, so the points can ship later as additive
minors without a new manifest format.
* plugins: freeze host API v0 with a generated reference and refuse unknown pluginApi majors
The method table now carries a summary and an optional deprecatedSince, and renders
docs/reference/plugin-host-api.md with the stability and deprecation policy. A manifest
naming a newer host API major fails with "update Orca" instead of "must be 1".
* plugins: name the bad release in catalog validation and re-ask on any execution profile change
validate:plugin now reports each unreadable release with its reason (for example a tag
instead of a full commit SHA) rather than a count. The consent fingerprint includes a
declared non-data execution profile, so a data pack that becomes instructional no longer
keeps its one-click approval. Tests pin that catalogs drop non-SHA releases, that a
repository cannot load or approve a plugin it carries, and that added capabilities or a
changed profile always need re-approval.
* plugins: add the author guide, theme token list, v2 examples and a printed catalog release entry
docs/reference/plugin-authoring.md walks write, load a development folder, validate and
publish. The theme token table is generated from the public token set and its fallbacks.
hello-orca and hostile-panel move to manifest format 2. validate:plugin on a plugin
repository root materializes HEAD the way install does and prints the release entry to
paste into orca-catalog.json.
* plugins: name the host API type renderer and reserved contribution fields for their role
* plugins: gate the bundled example plugins on 1.4.240
* plugins: reserve orca, orca-*, official, anthropic, openai and github publishers
* plugins: rename storage/secrets to storage:own/secrets:own and gate events by domain capability
events:subscribe and the events.subscribe host method are gone; workspace events need
workspace:read and agent status needs the new agents:read. Format 1 manifests keep their old
names, rewritten on parse.
* plugins: move samples and fixtures off the now-reserved orca-samples publisher
* plugins: name the public surface workspace, not worktree
Events become workspace.created/removed with workspaceId and a kind field, agent status
carries workspaceId, and command context/keybinding when use workspace. Format 1 names are
rewritten on parse, v1 workers still receive worktree.* handlers, and clients treat any
non-global context from older hosts as workspace-scoped.
* plugins: rename the instructional execution profile to declarative
* plugins: move agents into the reserved contribution keys
Format 2 keeps contributes.agents empty like every reserved point; format 1 entries, which
Orca never read, are dropped on parse so they stay inert and bind no content.
* plugins: skip unknown theme tokens and icon slots at runtime, refuse them in validate:plugin
A token or slot added in a later release no longer fails the whole theme on older Orca.
validate:plugin now parses each theme, terminal theme and icon theme strictly. App themes
accept an optional schemaVersion 1.
* plugins: inject panel design tokens as --orca-* custom properties
* plugins: accept a closed, documented list of panel icons
Format 1 panels keep any icon name: a known one in either Lucide spelling is canonicalized,
an unknown one is dropped and shows plug, as before.
* plugins: make catalog release types optional and derive them
Every required release field is permanent for old clients, and types repeat what contributes
and execution already say. Printed release entries no longer include it.
* plugins: strip unknown kill-list and consent fields instead of refusing them
A strict kill list froze old clients on their cached list as soon as a later list added a
field, silently stopping revocation; a strict consent request would refuse a newer client's
optional review field.
* plugins: check only the shape of a panel action in the renderer
The host's capability gate already refuses methods panels may not call. Filtering against the
client's own method list blocked every panel method a newer host added on older clients,
including remote and SSH ones.
* plugins: read a leading >=x.y.z from engines.orca leniently in the compatibility pre-read
* plugins: derive content-bound approval from the contribution policy table
Each point now declares bindsContent, replacing the hand-kept list in the consent
fingerprint, so a new point such as mcpServers cannot swap bytes under an old approval by
being forgotten.
* plugins: name the host API "Host API 1" and add a stability section to the author guide
The guide now lists what is stable and what is experimental: the agent status payload, the
worker process model, language-pack keys, validate:plugin output beyond its exit codes,
settings:own and manifest format 1. Secrets copy now says encrypted file, not OS keychain.
* plugins: make the hello-orca sample speak in plain words
The worker command returns a sentence instead of a JSON object, and the panel labels
terminals by position instead of their opaque ids.
* plugins: give plugins short branch names, not refs/heads/...
* plugins: panels can no longer type into terminals; workers only (D3)
terminal.sendText with Enter runs shell commands locally or over SSH, which
the sandboxed-panel tier's "limited" consent copy did not convey. The
capability copy now says so, and the sample panel no longer types.
* plugins: put full-access worker plugins behind a second setting, off by default (D2)
Trusted workers are unsandboxed Node, so the plugin system switch alone no
longer lets them run. With "Allow plugins that run code with full access"
off, main refuses to install a full-access catalog release, approve or enable
one, and keeps installed workers stopped with an error naming the setting.
The catalog card says "Full access · turned off in settings" and links to
the switch; the worker chip now reads "Full access".
* plugins: bind dev-folder approval to the folder it was given for
A dev plugin's consent fingerprint now includes the folder's canonical path,
so approving one dev folder no longer approves another folder whose
manifest claims the same key and capabilities. The development dialog now
says edits inside an approved folder run without another review.
* plugins: close WebRTC as an outbound channel from panels
CSP has no WebRTC directive, so a panel could reach a STUN/TURN server it
controls despite connect-src 'none'. The panel shell now locks
RTCPeerConnection to undefined before plugin code runs, and the main window
that hosts panels gets the same WebRTC IP-handling policy as doc preview
guests. DNS-prefetch hints remain the residual doc preview already accepts.
* plugins: stop language packs relabelling trust copy outside plugin settings
Protection covered only plugin copy under settings, so a content-only pack
could rename the catalog's Official badge, the file-type suggestion banner,
or swap Allow and Deny on agent approvals. Those components are now
protected whole, the same way the plugin security dialogs are.
* plugins: refuse Git URLs with a dash-led user or host, or a '..' host
ssh reads a leading '-' as an option, and the scp form is not normalized, so
'stablyai/../evil' read as the official owner. The shared URL check used by
the catalog schema, validate:plugin and every install path now refuses these,
and provenance parsing refuses '..' path segments.
* plugins: flag an update whose catalog moved it to another repository
An update whose catalog now points at a different repository showed the new
URL without saying it changed. The update review now names the old and new
repository and leaves that update unticked, so it installs only once the
user opts in.
* plugins: sample worker returns a readable toast; sample panel shows no internal ids
Hello Orca's ping returned raw JSON, which the command toast printed as-is,
and its panel showed the full ref name. It now returns a sentence and shows
the plain branch name.
* plugins: move runtime policy checks and catalog types out of files over the line limit
* plugins: refresh the plugin safety list every 6 hours while plugins are on
Revocations previously reached a session only at launch or when plugins were
turned on, so a long-running Orca kept running a revoked plugin.
* plugins: main sends an update from a moved repository to review
The update dialog left such updates unticked, but main still accepted a
one-click approval for them. Main now compares the installed and new
repository itself and always answers needsReview.
* plugins: label the plugin system Alpha instead of Experimental
Settings badge, nav entry badge, search/description copy in all locales,
and plugin docs' stability sections. Setting keys are unchanged.
* plugins: trim the Plugin settings menu to titles and a short full-access hint
* plugins: reserve statusBarItems and sidebarCards and list planned contribution points
Both keys are rejected when non-empty, like the other reserved points. The
manifest and authoring references gain a Planned contribution points list
built from one table. Also moves the Alpha note on the host API page into its
generator so the schema/doc parity test passes again.
* plugins: an update that asks for nothing new keeps its approval
Before, any catalog update to a declarative, sandboxed-ui or trusted-worker
plugin changed its consent fingerprint (it binds the package bytes), so the
plugin turned off and waited for review after every Update. Only content-only
(data) plugins kept running.
Main now reads the approved version before installing and, when the update
comes from the same repository and adds no capability, no higher execution
profile, and no new command, shortcut, panel, event or VM recipe, records the
new fingerprint so the plugin stays on. Anything that grows access, a moved
repository, a development override or a plugin that was never approved still
waits for review, and the full-access switch still gates trusted workers.
The update preview now carries what grew, so the Update dialog lists new
shortcuts, commands, panels and events as well as capabilities. The consent
copy says updates that don't ask for more access install without asking.
* plugins: match the full-access test to the shorter setting name
* plugins: update catalog plugins automatically when an update asks for nothing new
Adds "Update plugins automatically" to Plugin settings, on by default. The
setting is pluginUpdatePolicy ('auto' | 'manual') so later policies can be
added without a migration.
At startup (after a short delay) and every 12 hours, packaged Orca refreshes
the catalogs and, for each enabled, approved catalog plugin with a newer
release, installs it in place when it comes from the same repository and
grows no access; the approval carries over and the worker reloads. A release
from a non-official catalog installs only after it has been listed for 12
hours, timed from when this Orca first saw it (stored locally because
catalogs carry no listed-at time), so takedowns can land first. An update
that grows access or moved repository is not installed: the current version
keeps running and the plugin shows "Update needs review", whose Review
update button opens the existing update review with what is new. Plugins
updated this way show a quiet "Updated to vX" chip, and each pass shows at
most one toast. Manual Update and Update all are unchanged.
* plugins: clear code-quality findings in the update approval and auto-update code
* plugins: give an app theme that leaves --sidebar unset a visible sidebar edge
Orca draws no line between the left sidebar and the main area; the sidebar's
slightly different surface is the edge. A theme that omitted --sidebar (like
the Dusk sample) had it filled from --background, so the sidebar matched the
main area and the edge vanished. An unset --sidebar is now mixed 8% toward
the theme's foreground. The in-repo sample theme sets --sidebar explicitly
and the theme smoke test checks it reaches the sidebar.
* plugins: treat an unknown update policy as manual, not auto
* plugins: auto-update only pinned releases, and only the release that was held
* plugins: start the auto-update hold clock before the catalog refresh, and check every 6 hours
* plugins: refresh the kill list right before auto-installing, and skip the install if that fails
* plugins: refuse an unpinned full-access install while full access is off
* plugins: an automatic update re-checks inside the install lock that the plugin is still installed
* plugins: compare the full repository path, so a GitLab subgroup move counts as moved
* plugins: time out the kill-list fetch and retry 15 minutes after a failure
* plugins: drop one unreadable kill-list entry instead of the whole list
* plugins: keep language packs off the orca.yaml and notebook trust prompts, certificate warning and site permission prompt
* plugins: compare whole capability declarations on update, and cover swapped command actions and shortcuts
* plugins: log automatic updates so headless and remote hosts record them
* plugins: say that automatic updates can change what a full-access plugin does
* plugins: pin and document the nested-frame WebRTC residual in plugin panels
* plugins: delete the unused PluginReviewBody
* plugins: drop the dead repositoryMoved parameter and the predecessor wrapper
* plugins: declare the plugin policy settings type once
* plugins: show what main found an update changes instead of recomputing it in the renderer
* plugins: move update approval and update policy into the catalog folders
* test(plugins): expect the workspace.removed event name in the lifecycle test
* plugins: rename structural helpers for their role, type the update identity read, and give plugin system settings their own group
* i18n(plugins): drop retired plugin strings from the Portuguese catalog
* plugins: build the hello-orca status line with a template string
* plugins: install catalog plugins from a directory of a shared repository
A catalog source may name a 'path' inside its repository. Orca downloads the
pinned commit as before but materializes only that subtree, so contentHash
covers the plugin's own files and sibling commits never change it. A changed
path counts as a moved repository and needs review. validate:plugin accepts a
subdirectory and prints its source path; the frozen v1 export skips such
entries.
* plugins: offer the full access setting on a full-access plugin's page
The page offered Install & enable even with full access off, then failed with a generic error.
It now shows the card's 'Turn on in settings' action, names the real reason when main refuses,
and drops a stale install error once the full access setting changes.
* plugins: say a content-only plugin couldn't load its files, not that it crashed
Language packs and other data plugins have no code or logs, so a load failure now reads
"Couldn't load its files" on the page and the row instead of "Its code kept crashing".
* plugins: leave Settings before running a built-in action from a plugin page
Built-in actions such as Open Board and Go Back are disabled while Settings covers the app,
so Run on the plugin page always failed. Run now closes Settings, commits that synchronously
so the dispatcher sees the app view, then runs the action.
* plugins: refuse terminal:send on panel plugins and never list it on panel approvals
Panels get no host method that types into a terminal, yet a panel's approval listed
"Type and run commands in your terminals". Format 2 manifests now fail validation when a
profile below trusted-worker asks for terminal:send, and approvals, the access section and
update review drop that line for format 1 panels that still declare it.
* plugins: say "catalog" in user-facing copy, not "marketplace"
The menu said "Catalog sources…" but the dialog it opens said "Marketplace sources" and
asked for orca-marketplace.json. Plugin copy now says catalog in every locale, names
orca-catalog.json (still accepting the older file), and the author guide matches the UI.
Internal identifiers and settings keys are unchanged.
* test(plugins): run a built-in action from its plugin page end to end
* plugins: concise copy pass across plugin UI
Update review shows one line per plugin and only what's new for updates
that need approval, with the rest behind a See all access disclosure.
Consent, Can access, dialogs, settings menu and empty states drop restated
titles and filler; safety facts (new access, full access = files/network)
stay visible where the user decides.
* plugins: keep See all access on Button and Collapsible primitives' own spacing
* plugins: separate light and dark theme slots so packs pair and mix
Plugin app themes now fill a Light theme or Dark theme slot by their base. Orca paints the
slot for its current mode, so under System it swaps live with the OS. Appearance shows both
pickers grouped by plugin; install fills the matching slot(s) and Switch back restores them.
A legacy single selection migrates into its base's slot.
* plugins: installed carousel and card grid, category badges, In use state; load language packs that cover protected copy
* fix(theme): let plugin themes colour menus and dialogs
Menus, popovers, selects, hover cards, sheets and dialogs painted a fixed
glass tint (dialogs rgb 23,23,23 in dark mode), so a plugin theme's
--popover was ignored and a true-black theme still showed grey dialogs.
The tint now lives in --floating-surface / --dialog-surface, which a
plugin theme replaces with its --popover.
* plugins: name the app-theme slot a pack fills, not its terminal colours
* plugins: page the installed row by whole cards; e2e follows the card menu
* plugins: hide the installed row's scrollbar and draw kind art instead of initials
The installed carousel pages with its arrows and snap points; the native
scrollbar under it only added a stray bar. Format 1 catalog listings (the
official catalog until catalog v2 publishes) carry no release types or
images, so their cards fell back to a two-letter monogram. Art now reads
the kind from catalog categories, and the last fallback is a plugin glyph.
* plugins: reserve official publishers to Orca's catalog and pin installs to their catalog
Reserved publishers (stablyai, official, anthropic, openai, github, orca*; case-insensitive)
and orca-* ids now install only from Orca's official catalog: a Git URL, local folder or any
other catalog is refused, and a third-party catalog listing one is refused whole. The rule lives
in one import-free module the directory indexer can vendor; validate:plugin uses it too and
warns when publisher differs from the origin remote's owner.
A marketplace install never replaces one recorded from a different catalog; switching means
remove and reinstall. Docs state the publisher == repository owner policy (enforced by the
official and community catalog CI, not a new runtime field).
* plugins: label trust by catalog source and note other catalogs listing an install
The chip beside a plugin now says where trust comes from: the Official mark for Orca's catalog,
otherwise the catalog name and the owner parsed from its Git URL (github.com/acme,

* test(plugins): give update review's Git-backed steps a loaded-runner timeout
Install and update review each fetch a plugin over Git. On a loaded machine that
took 25-30s with or without the publisher checks, past the 10s expect default,
so the test read as stalled on Installing…
* test(plugins): give the row-art fixture the entry's catalog source fields
* test(plugins): say why the panel WebRTC test needs a longer timeout
* feat(plugins): dismissible Alpha notice on the Plugins settings page
Shows "Alpha: The plugin interface may change. Expect nuances." under the
Plugins title until dismissed; dismissal persists in UI state
(pluginsAlphaNoticeDismissed). Localized in all locales, with unit and e2e
coverage for show-by-default and dismiss-across-reload.

* plugins: stop shipping Orca Navigation Shortcuts and retire stale bundled installs
Removes the bundled copy and its fallback-catalog listing. On startup, bundled
bootstrap now uninstalls any previously bundled plugin this release no longer
ships, so existing users don't keep a protected entry they cannot remove.
Removal code moves to plugin-removal.ts to keep plugin-install.ts under the
line limit.

* fix(plugins): concurrent saves of one image no longer fail the update review
Each save now writes its own uniquely named temp file and treats a rename
failure as success when a concurrent writer already produced the same
content-addressed file. A cache failure now only drops the image from the
preview or catalog refresh instead of failing it.
* fix(plugins): an update keeps unchanged machine recipes off the review's New list
Recipes always counted as new because their commands live in files the
manifest diff cannot see. Main now reads what each recipe can run (id,
checkout mode, commands) from the installed tree and the preview's staging
tree, and only a recipe that runs something new asks for review. An
unreadable file still counts as new.
* plugins: app themes color code in the editor via VS Code-shaped tokenColors
Theme files gain optional tokenColors (TextMate scope -> foreground/fontStyle).
The derived Monaco theme maps them onto Monaco's token names, the plugin-syntax
legend and raw TextMate scopes; unreadable colors are dropped.
* test(plugins): theme smoke checks tokenColors color the editor and revert
* i18n: retire translated entries for plugin strings this change rewords or removes
* plugins: add the custom editors contribution point
A plugin can now declare contributes.customEditors to open files of given
types in the editor tab, beside Source. The editor runs in the same
sandboxed, no-network panel frame and only exchanges the document's text
over a scoped postMessage channel; Orca keeps the buffer, dirty state,
saving, external-change banner, read-only tabs and SSH files.
The Editor | Source toggle and the 'first scene after load is the
baseline' approach follow community PR #27413.

* plugins: list custom-editor plugins with panels in the plugin list
* plugins: name an editor-only plugin's access 'Adds an editor'
* plugins: keep the Editors category label for custom-editor plugins
* plugins: restyle plugin frames in place and keep file paths out of editor frame names
A theme change used to remount panel and custom editor frames, which reloaded
the plugin and lost its state (Excalidraw undo, unsent edits). The host now posts
orca-panel-theme and the shell updates the --orca-* tokens and the html class in
place. Custom editor frames are named with a random id: window.name is readable
inside the frame, and the old name carried the file's absolute path.
* plugins: let custom editors open binary files as bytes (contentKind)
A custom editor can now declare "contentKind": "bytes" (with "readonly": true)
to receive the file's raw bytes instead of its text, for formats such as
spreadsheets. Orca pages the bytes from the host that loaded the tab (local,
SSH or a paired runtime, through the existing stat + readChunk calls, so no
wire change), refuses files over 16 MiB with a "too large to open" message,
re-sends on outside changes, and never applies a bytes editor's edits. The frame
gets a transferred ArrayBuffer and the matched suffix, never a path.
Documents are now versioned: { version, readOnly, content: { kind, ... } }.
Text edits may name a baseVersion; an edit against a replaced document is
refused with an orca-editor-edit-rejected conflict. Text documents keep the
legacy text field and unversioned edits still apply, so existing editors work.
"readonly": true on any editor makes the install review say "Opens .x files in
Orca" instead of "Opens and edits".
* plugins: suggest catalog custom editors for files Orca already opens
The file-type suggestion only offered a plugin when a file opened as plain text
or as the binary placeholder. It now also offers a catalog custom editor for a
file Orca shows with a language (an .excalidraw file opens as JSON): the editor
asks main with the `editor` purpose, which matches only release file types the
listing's contributions name as custom editors, and only when no installed
plugin's editor handles the type. Binary files such as .xlsx keep the existing
path, since release fileTypes already include custom-editor types. The banner
reads "A plugin adds an editor for .x files: Name"; Not now and Don't suggest
work per type as before.
* fix(plugins): an update that lets a custom editor edit, take over opening, or change content kind asks again
* fix(plugins): one unreadable catalog summary item no longer hides the whole summary
* fix(plugins): plugin editors never open Orca-core file types by default, and join Markdown, CSV and notebook view toggles as options
* fix(plugins): catalog releases list editor file types as data instead of parsing the display summary
* fix(plugins): custom editor edits must name their base version; drop the pre-release text field
* fix(plugins): a custom editor edit Orca refuses keeps the tab dirty and blocks the save instead of vanishing
Rate-limited edits are held and applied before the next save; oversized ones are reported to
the frame and the user. Every save, from any trigger, first flushes plugin editor frames with a
bounded wait and refuses to write while a frame holds edits the buffer lacks.
* fix(plugins): run custom editors as network-isolated guests and save only on real key presses
Editors see file contents, so they now run as <webview> guests in their own in-memory partition
instead of iframes of Orca's renderer. The session routes everything through a dead SOCKS proxy
(loopback included), refuses every non-editor request and permission, and each guest gets
disable_non_proxied_udp, no popups and no navigation. An Electron test proves fetch, WebSocket,
images and TURN-over-TCP all fail from the editor and from its srcdoc and javascript: child
frames, while the same page in a plain session reaches every listener. Electron 43 still resolves
<link rel=dns-prefetch> names outside the session; the test pins that residual and the docs say so.
Save chords now come from main's before-input-event on the guest, which page code cannot
synthesize; the shell's keydown forwarder and the orca-editor-keydown message are gone. Guests
also run in their own renderer process.
* fix(plugins): enforce a read-only custom editor in main, not just the tab
Main reads readonly from the installed manifest (bytes editors always count) and drops every
edit such a guest posts before it reaches the renderer. The tab host also refuses them and tells
the editor its document is read-only, even on a writable tab.
* test(plugins): the editor-suggestion catalog fixture lists editorFileTypes
* plugins: custom editors edit and save binary files; drop readonly and the isolated guest
Bytes editors now post `{ baseVersion, content: { kind: 'bytes', bytes } }` full
replacements (a transferable ArrayBuffer). The tab keeps the unsaved bytes beside
the text drafts, marks itself dirty, and the normal save pipeline (frame flush,
Cmd+S, close prompt) writes them: locally through a new `fs:writeFileBytes`
atomic replace guarded by the loaded bytes' SHA-256, and on SSH-served or paired
hosts by uploading chunks with `files.writeBase64Chunk` and swapping them in with
the new capability-negotiated `files.replaceWithUpload`. Older hosts are refused
before anything is written. A stale baseline is a conflict: the edit stays
unsaved and the external-change banner offers Reload or Overwrite. Source stays
the binary placeholder.
Per the product decision, every custom editor may edit: the `readonly` manifest
field, its main-side enforcement and re-approval rule are gone, and an editor
that only views simply never posts edits. Editors run in the normal sandboxed
plugin frame again instead of a network-isolated webview guest; the frame's save
chord is honored only while it carries real user activation. Consent now reads
"Opens and edits .ext files in Orca. It can read the files it opens."
* plugins: reserve agentHarnesses and hooks instead of agents; rename agents:read to agent:read
* plugins: syntaxes and custom editors share one file matcher (extensions with the dot, plus filenames)
* plugins: title for themes and syntaxes, when for commands (format 1 names rewritten on parse)
* plugins: add the editor catalog type for custom editors
* plugins: official means listed by the official catalog, not an orca- id
* plugins: one envelope protocol and window.orca for workers, panels and editors
Workers, panels and custom editors now share one internal envelope
({orca: 1, kind: req|res|evt|cancel}) instead of three message sets.
Frames get a frozen window.orca from the shell (api, host.call with
AbortSignal cancel, host.has, on, and document helpers in editors);
ready/hello carries the api, the surface's methods and the theme.
Editors gain host calls through their own session.
The host API table is keyed by method with typed params/results (no
handler casts), per-method surfaces and a numeric since minor; every
params schema is strict. Errors are {code, message, retryable,
retryAfterMs?} with cancelled/timeout/conflict/not_permitted/too_large
reserved and unknown codes read as action_failed. Event payloads are
typed with a closed agent-status enum, and the list entry type is
shared by main and preload.
* plugins: orca.document.onDidChange hands a late subscriber the current document
Editors that subscribe after their bundle loads (Excalidraw) missed the
document that arrived first and stayed blank.
* plugins: custom editor documents up to 64 MiB, with a large-file note past 16 MiB
The cap covers text and bytes on every route; reads and SSH or paired-host
writes are already chunked, so only the shared cap moves. Past 16 MiB the
tab shows a small, non-blocking note that the editor may take a moment.
* plugins: delete dead props and branches left by removed rows, logs toggle and access retry
* plugins: one status word per state (a crashed plugin reads Stopped everywhere) and drop unused plugin locale keys
* plugins: contribution rows use the manifest point names, so the policy table is the one source of catalog types
* test(plugins): assert the Use now line and page behavior, not Tailwind classes
* i18n: add the custom editor large-file note to the English catalog
* plugins: fold the loose shared plugin modules into contributions, frames, images, capabilities, events, languages, installation and catalog folders
* plugins: custom editor tab icons and contributes.newFiles templates
A custom editor may declare an icon; the tab and its hover card show it and the
editor title instead of "Editor", falling back to the plugin icon. contributes.newFiles
declares untitled file types (title, extension, optional UTF-8 template and icon) offered
in the tab bar + menu, its search, the command palette and the plugin page, created at the
workspace root through the Markdown untitled-file flow. The install toast's Try it creates
one for plugins that declare them.
* test(plugins): hidden e2e for a plugin new file from the + menu and its editor tab icon
* plugins: turn the plugin system on by default with a one-time migration
Saved false from the old default flips on once (pluginSystemDefaultedOn guard);
a later deliberate false is respected. The Turn on plugins off-state is gone,
and the official catalog seed is deferred off the startup path (and skipped
offline), seeding on demand when the marketplace is opened.
* plugins: move the card menu Disable/Enable directly above Remove, without an icon
* plugins: show the Alpha notice with the warning banner tokens
* plugins: show each category's icon in the filter dropdown
* plugins: seed drawn fallback art per plugin so two listings never look identical
* plugins: show manifest covers for catalog releases published without images
The official catalog's newest Midnight, Nord, OLED and Dusk & Ember releases
were regenerated without an images block (release-entry only kept images the
author pasted), so their cards fell back to drawn art. A catalog that keeps its
plugins in its own repository now borrows the manifest's images from the
catalog commit, checked like declared images, and the validator's printed
release entry includes them so regenerated catalogs keep their covers.
* plugins: drop the unused Turn on plugins strings
* settings: find the Plugins page by plugin, mod and extension searches
* plugins: remove the Allow full-access plugins setting
Full-access (trusted-worker) plugins now need only their own per-plugin
approval: main no longer gates install, consent, enablement or runtime on a
global switch, and the settings menu item, the Turn on in settings card and
page states, and the stored key are gone. The consent now says plainly what
full access means. Kill list, official review and publisher checks are kept;
docs note an enterprise block policy may come later.
* i18n: retire translated entries for plugin strings this change rewords or removes
* test(plugins): prune low-value plugin tests
Drop tests that asserted CSS classes, DOM structure, internal call counts,
copy, or duplicated coverage; merge overlapping e2e file-type suggestion
specs. Keep security, consent, data-integrity, compatibility and main
journey coverage.
* test(plugins): stop git auto-maintenance racing marketplace fetch teardown
* test(plugins): import the panel session token schema from the frame bridge
* feat(plugins): open orca://plugins install links at the plugin's page
orca://plugins/<publisher.id>?catalog=<official|community|git URL> opens
Settings -> Plugins at that plugin; it never installs. Plugins off shows
Turn on plugins first, an unknown catalog asks before it is fetched, and a
malformed link only toasts. Reuses the skill-share deep-link path (open-url,
second-instance argv, sidecar handoff) with repeat/burst dedupe, and
registers orca:// on packaged Windows, which NSIS leaves unregistered.
