Orca IDE

Clearer desktop status • Each paired desktop shows the name the desktop reports, with its operating system underneath. • A desktop that is asleep, closed, or signed out now says what is wrong instead of staying on "Connecting via Relay…". Steadier agent chat • The "Working for" bar shows while the agent is still working, not only after it finishes. • Long typed answers to an agent's question now reach the agent. • "Fix checks with AI", "Resolve conflicts with AI", and similar buttons now start an agent with your prompt. Fixes • Sending review notes no longer freezes the review screen. • A terminal opens at the phone's size instead of flashing the desktop's size first. • A streamed browser tab resumes when you return to the app. • Voice dictation explains why it could not start.

Clearer chat while agents work • A proposed plan now appears as a plan you can read, not a generic approval prompt. • Approval requests show what the agent actually asked for instead of raw tool data. • The working timer counts from the message that started the turn. Steadier workspace setup • Creating a workspace no longer risks starting two if the reply is lost on the way back. • A worktree that launches an agent on creation opens straight into its chat. • A newly created tab stays put when the host list refreshes. Fixes • Pairing no longer reports a declined permission as a missing feature. • The notification opt-in screen is clearer about what you are turning on. • Sign-in now accepts enterprise-managed GitHub accounts.

Smoother chat while agents work • The transcript no longer drifts and snaps while a reply streams. • Fast mode is now provider-aware in native chat. • Activity indicators stay hidden while a turn is waiting on you. Faster across the app • Linear lists and boards, source-control sorts, and autocomplete all do less work per update. • Terminal input and connection logging are lighter. Fixes • Notification taps reopen the workspace you were already in. • Copying a terminal selection no longer drags the agent gutter along. • Sign-in callback failures are reported instead of looking like a cancel.

This update adds network diagnostics that explain connection problems in plain language, fixes creating a worktree from a pull request, and keeps terminal accessory keys from sticking, plus reliability fixes and more parity with the Orca desktop app.
