Large feature release covering diff review, context tracking, streaming improvements, design system expansion, and MCP enhancements.

Added

  • Diff review system - Inline code review with drag selection, multiline comments, range support, and gap expansion. Review Claude's edits before committing, or annotate specific lines with feedback that Claude can act on.
  • Context window tracking - Compaction metrics, boundary display, and activity indicators in chat. Always know how much context remains.
  • Streaming markdown - Block-level memoization for efficient incremental rendering. Messages render progressively without layout shifts.
  • Quick open file picker (Ctrl/Cmd+P) - Fast file navigation across the entire worktree with fuzzy search.
  • Binary file support - Detection and preview for non-text files like images and PDFs.
  • Terminal output reading - Read terminal output via @mentions and MCP tools. Claude can see what your terminal is showing.
  • MCP server elicitation - OAuth and form input support for MCP servers requiring authentication.
  • Customizable activity indicators - Choose between dots and waveform animation styles for the streaming indicator.
  • Commit message draft persistence - Drafts survive worktree switches. Switch context without losing your commit message.
  • Streaming animation toggle - Enable or disable streaming animations in Appearance settings.
  • Copy button and turn footer - Easily copy message content and see turn metadata in chat messages.
  • Per-worktree state - Center view and changes panel state are preserved independently per worktree.
  • Diff comment cards - User messages display associated diff comments inline for easy reference.
  • Mission Control sidebar enhancements - Icons and item counts on sidebar tabs for better at-a-glance overview.
