* fix(hooks): generate worktree setup-runner from target worktree's orca.yaml Extend getEffectiveHooks, getSetupCommandSource, and runHook with an optional worktreePath parameter. When provided, loadHooks reads the yaml from that path; otherwise it falls back to repo.path. Update the worktree-creation paths in worktree-remote.ts and orca-runtime.ts to thread the new worktreePath through after the worktree exists, so the generated setup-runner reflects the yaml at the tip of the target worktree's branch instead of the primary checkout's stale yaml. Add a regression test in hooks.test.ts that mocks two distinct orca.yaml files (primary and worktree) and asserts the worktree's content wins when worktreePath is passed. The legacy hooks:check IPC handler keeps reading from repo.path unchanged. Closes #1256 * fix(hooks): skip auto-setup when worktree script differs from preview Add setupScriptsMatch helper that compares the primary checkout's setup script (what the renderer shows the user before worktree creation) to the target worktree's script (what would actually run after creation). When they differ, createLocalWorktree skips the auto-launch and logs a warning, so a base-branch yaml that introduces or modifies setup commands cannot execute under the trust granted to the primary's preview. CLI-created worktrees use the worktree-bound load directly because trust is granted by the CLI invocation context, which is annotated in orca-runtime.ts. Adds regression coverage for both matching and differing script cases. * test(hooks): add setupScriptsMatch to worktree IPC test mocks The new setupScriptsMatch import in worktree-remote.ts means the existing vi.mock('../hooks') blocks in worktrees.test.ts and worktrees-windows.test.ts now need to expose it. Default the mock to returning true so existing tests continue to exercise the run-setup path; the new behavior gating is covered by the dedicated setupScriptsMatch unit tests.

[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).
