The sidebar nudge added in 344d466b was premised on FDA being reachable
"only inside onboarding". It isn't: Settings > macOS Permissions has had a
full-disk-access row all along (searchable), the Setup Guide hosts the same
prompt from both a settings pane and a re-openable modal, and the sidebar
already links to that modal via the "Onboarding checklist" entry. The card
added a fifth affordance to the same sidebar that already had the fourth,
so it bought prominence rather than access - shown to every macOS user
without FDA, most of whom never hit #9756.
Keep the part that was actually new. The settings row still described the
prompts as something projects and worktrees trigger, which is the same
misattribution the card carried: the reads come from the agents Orca runs,
and macOS names Orca only because it is the responsible process for every
terminal child. It also never mentioned that the grant has to cover Orca
Helper, or that the preserved daemon keeps stale TCC state until restart.
Non-English catalogs get the English string as a placeholder; the bootstrap
translators key their cache on the English value, so a changed string is
re-translated on the next run.

Features
Also in the box:
- Quick open — Search across worktrees, files, agents, commands, and repo context without leaving your flow.
- Account switcher & usage tracking — See Claude and Codex usage and rate-limit resets, and hot-swap accounts without re-logging in.
- Rich repo previews — Preview Markdown, images, PDFs, and repo docs in the workspace.
- Computer Use — Let agents operate desktop apps and visible UI when a workflow needs real interaction.
- Notifications and unread state — Know when an agent finishes or needs attention, then mark threads unread to come back later.
- And many, many more — we ship daily, so this list is perpetually behind. The changelog is the real feature list.
