Reusable Cues, file search, and faster terminals
Save repeatable tasks, choose from more agents, and spend less time waiting for files and terminal output.
Save repeatable work as Cues, find files from the command palette, and spend less time waiting for reviews and terminal output.
Save repeatable work as Cues #5391
Save an instruction or shell command once in Project Settings, then run it from a session or orchestrator toolbar. Agent Cues send the instruction to the selected agent; Command Cues open a fresh terminal and run the saved command without interrupting the agent. Cues are available for local projects.

OpenCode 2 is available for Terminal UI, Chat, and reviews, alongside existing OpenCode 1 sessions. DeepSeek Harness adds Chat with model and reasoning controls. Gemini CLI and MiMo Code join the Terminal UI options; fx support is experimental and Terminal UI only. #6043 #6014 #5502 #5893 #5436
Find and review files with less waiting
Search workspace files from the command palette and open a result directly in Files. From a project page, choose the session or worktree to search first. The file viewer loads changes in batches instead of blocking on a full scan, and returning to a file keeps its preview mode and scroll position. #6193 #6145 #5997 #6130
Find a workspace file and open it directly from search.Faster terminal output and startup
Large bursts of terminal output reach the screen faster, and a new shell shows its first prompt without waiting behind a history-replay cover. New terminals start at their tab's actual size, while rapid open-and-close actions no longer leave duplicate or reappearing tabs. #6232 #6203 #6213 #6196
Improvements
Tasks and navigation
- Automations use a compact list with All, Enabled, and Paused filters, clearer schedules, and expandable run history. #6116
- Session links in Chat and the terminal open the linked session inside AO. #4606
- Opening a session leaves the inspector closed until needed. Long project lists show six agents with a Show more control. #6046
- The command palette has a Go to home action, and Home keeps standalone tasks available even when Cloud is enabled. #6176
Models and reviews
- Model pickers show the agent's configured default when it can be identified, including readable Claude alias names. #6063 #5961
- Model search supports typing, Backspace, and keyboard selection more consistently; task controls leave more room for agent, model, and effort labels. #6208 #6206 #6106
- Worker-reported PR and merge-request links appear in the inspector, including links to other repositories. Reference-only cards are distinguished from PRs AO actively tracks. #6019
- The session inspector distinguishes unresolved comments from a formal Changes requested review, and keeps comment feedback visible while an agent works. #6015
Files and browser
- The Files panel has a direct Workspace button, and filters and file actions fit better in a narrow inspector. #6081
- Large PRs load a bounded commit list; opening a specific PR commit reads that commit directly. #5988
- Browser profiles have named actions for renaming, clearing data, and deletion, and download progress is visible again. #5924
- Browser actions can wait for a page change and distinguish a dispatched click from a confirmed result, without repeating the action when confirmation is missing. #4783
Bug fixes
Chat and sessions
- Startup no longer waits through avoidable requirement-check retries; hovering or focusing a local Chat session starts loading its conversation before you open it. #5994 #5980
- Switching chats restores the destination inspector layout immediately. Sign-in warnings clear after the active conversation successfully recovers, and clicking back into Chat preserves the draft's caret position. #6183 #6186 #6229
- A stopped session no longer stays active just because its worktree could not be removed. Files are preserved for later cleanup. #5645
- Archived standalone agents have a dedicated Scratchpad list and restore to the correct session. #5979
- Review-only tasks no longer receive instructions to claim ownership of the PR being reviewed. #5992
- Automatic issue intake is off by default to prevent unbounded worker spawning; its settings are hidden unless the daemon explicitly enables it. #6008 #6059
Browser and pairing
- Browser imports preserve host-only login cookies, and importing from Chrome no longer probes protected Safari data. Website Copy link actions work in the active page, and profile-switch failures are shown instead of silently falling back. #5955 #6075
- Annotation outlines stay attached to the selected element while scrolling. Sent annotations appear in Chat, including while queued, and count as user activity. #5960 #6117 #5982
- Connect Mobile shows the local pairing QR as soon as it is ready, then refreshes it when remote access becomes available. Settings text stays sharp and nested menus and confirmations remain usable. #5981 #6002 #6016
- Browser commands stop with a target-mismatch error if a popup leaves the selected tab unconfirmed, rather than acting on another tab. #4821
Terminal and layout
- Switching an empty Codex terminal back to Chat no longer mistakes placeholder text for an unsent draft. Claude window-title text is no longer mistaken for a draft either. #6041 #5322
- Terminal redraws remain visible during panel resizing, keyboard focus returns after switching terminal tabs, and shell terminals no longer inherit Cursor-specific color handling. #6168 #6167 #6139
- The inspector grows back after a narrow-window tab switch, and macOS titlebar controls stay aligned through zoom and sidebar transitions. #6161 #6192
Files and updates
- Files review defaults to combined workspace changes again, and Markdown heading links are no longer clipped. #5854 #5968
- Downloaded updates retain their release notes across app restarts. The restart dialog gives notes room to grow while keeping its buttons visible. #5966 #5976
