Git refuses `git worktree remove` without --force for any checkout with submodules, even when nothing is dirty. Orca's dirty check passed such a clean checkout, so the delete was accepted, its terminals were stopped, and Git's refusal arrived later in the background, where the CLI and automation never saw it. The dirty check now applies Git's own test (submodule repositories under the worktree's admin directory, or a gitlink checked out with its .git), which the native Windows path already used, and refuses a clean checkout that fails it with a message that keeps Git's wording, so every app version still offers Force Delete with the submodule warning. The same test now decides when a dirty refusal names submodules. Force is not applied automatically: it would also delete submodule commits, branches and stashes that were never pushed. Refs #35135

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.
