[1.3.0] - Side Chats, Tabbed Dock & Codex Expansion ​

Added ​

  • By-The-Way (BTW) Side Chats — Ask a quick side question while an agent session is still running, without interrupting the main conversation; side-fork sessions work across Claude, Codex (via thread/fork), and all cloud, Ollama, and LMStudio providers; a completed side-fork can be promoted into a full standalone chat session
  • Tabbed Bottom Dock — The bottom panel is now a tabbed dock with a horizontal split between the Activity tab and Terminal tabs, polished headers, richer tab labels, and a close-confirmation guard for terminals with running processes
  • Codex: Context Compaction — Codex sessions now support context compaction for very large conversations, keeping long-running threads within model limits
  • Codex: Image Generation — Codex sessions can now generate images; the provider defaults to GPT-5.5 models
  • Claude Opus 4.7 — Opus 4.7 is now available as a model option, with support for the new xhigh effort level for extended thinking
  • Terminal: Settings Tab — A new Terminal settings tab lets you choose a default shell and configure custom shell profiles
  • Terminal: WebGL Renderer & Ctrl+V Paste — The terminal now uses the xterm.js WebGL renderer for better performance and supports Ctrl+V paste natively
  • Background Task Output Panel — When an agent produces a background task output file, a direct Open-in-Panel button appears in chat so you can review the result immediately
  • Claude Monitor / Worktree Tools — Claude Code adapter now handles the Monitor, EnterWorktree, and ExitWorktree tool calls for richer worktree-aware sessions
  • Subagent Worktree Isolation Display — SubagentBlock now shows when a subagent is running inside an isolated worktree
  • Rich Subagent Tool Call Panels — Tool calls made inside subagent sessions are now rendered with full rich panel views in the parent chat

Changed ​

  • Floating Chat in Library — The "Chat with AI" action in the library now routes through the editor's floating chat panel instead of the global split panel
  • Global Split Panel Replaced — The legacy global split panel has been removed; in-view floating chat is now used consistently across all views
  • Subagent Rendering — Compact and Focus chat modes now inherit the full SubagentBlock rich renderer for consistent tool-call display

Fixed ​

  • Claude Adapter: Redacted Thinking Blocks — Redacted thinking blocks are now surfaced as a placeholder instead of being silently dropped
  • Claude Adapter: Subagent Queue Drain — Queue drain is correctly skipped on subagent tool_end events, preventing stale message injection
  • Models: 1M Context Model IDs — 1M context variant model IDs are pinned correctly; friendly error messages are shown for CLI compatibility issues
  • Parser: Noisy requesting Status Suppressed — The Claude CLI requesting status line is suppressed from output to reduce log noise
  • Chat View: Grep Output Parsing — Single-file Grep results where lines are bare LINENO:text are now parsed correctly
  • Chat View: Accessibility & ARIA — Added ARIA labels and roles to icon-only buttons, collapsible toggles, menus, and keyboard-interactive elements throughout the chat view
  • Chat View: Performance — Dozens of React component and hook optimizations: memoized tool components (React.memo), stable map keys, memoized callbacks, parallelized diff computation with abort-on-unmount, rAF-throttled scroll observers, and narrowed store subscriptions to reduce unnecessary re-renders
