Eliminates the duplicated-TUI-output and broken-wide-char glyph artifacts that appeared when switching to a worktree after leaving it for a while. Two structural fixes: 1. Single-source restore on reattach. handleReattachResult now enforces strict precedence (snapshot > replay > coldRestore) and paints exactly one source per reattach. Painting both daemon snapshot and relay replay doubled the same lines because their tails overlap. Snapshot/replay still ack any superseded coldRestore so the daemon does not redeliver. 2. Always-live xterm writes. PTY output now flows straight into xterm regardless of pane visibility. The visibility-gated buffer (pendingWritesRef + chunked drain + fit-epoch dedup) was the source of the cursor-on-strange-line and broken-glyph bugs: bytes accumulated while hidden then flushed into xterm at stale cols on resume, before fitAllPanes() could correct the dimensions. The visibility prop now only controls WebGL suspend/resume (GPU resource management). Also adds an inline comment at openTerminal() pinning Unicode 11 activation before any caller-driven write — wide-char widths bake into the buffer at the active unicode version, so writing into a v6-default xterm corrupts CJK/emoji/ZWJ layouts. New regression tests: - snapshot wins over replay when both present - replay wins over coldRestore (and still acks) - Unicode-11 ordering: open → loadAddon:unicode11 → activeVersion=11 → write - live writes regardless of visibility prop Co-authored-by: Orca <help@stably.ai>

[New] Annotate AI Diff
Comment directly on AI-generated diffs.
Annotate any line in an AI-generated diff with your feedback, then send it back to the agent to revise. Keep the review loop tight — no copying line numbers, no context switching.
[New] Hot Swap Codex Accounts
Multiple Codex accounts? Switch in one click.
If you run multiple Codex accounts to get the best token deal, Orca lets you hot-swap between them instantly — no re-login, no config files. Just pick an account and keep building.
[New] Per Worktree Browser & Design Mode
See your app. Click any element. Drop it into the chat.
Orca ships with a built-in browser right inside your worktree. Preview your app as you build, then switch to Design Mode — click any UI element and it lands directly in your AI chat as context. No screenshots, no copy-pasting selectors. Just point at what you want to change and tell the agent what to do.
[New] Introducing the Orca CLI
Agent orchestration from your terminal.
Let your AI agent control your IDE. Use AI to add projects to your IDE, spin up worktrees, and update the current worktree's comment with meaningful progress checkpoints directly from the terminal. Ships with the Orca IDE (install under Settings).
