Added

  • The Git page's Issues and Pull requests forms now discover the repository's own
    templates (.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ Markdown and YAML issue forms, plus
    .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md and its variants). A lone template applies
    automatically; with several, a Template picker (including Blank) chooses one.
    The choice prefills the title prefix and body skeleton — a YAML issue form is flattened
    into Markdown — and its labels: ride along on Create.

  • The Git page's Issues and Pull requests forms can now draft their title and
    Markdown body with a Generate button. Add optional notes (or leave them blank) and
    Orbit makes the same one-shot, tool-free pi -p call the commit-message generator uses,
    reading the branch, its commits, and its changed files; when pi is missing or has no
    credentials it falls back to a local heuristic built from those same facts. Nothing is
    created until you review the draft and press Create.

  • Every icon-only button across the app now carries the same native tooltip the
    send / stop button has — a localized label, usually with its keyboard shortcut
    (e.g. Toggle Terminal (⌘J)). Covers the top bar, sidebar, transcript copy /
    diff controls, composer add button, window caption buttons, Explorer, Review
    pane, Git, Usage, terminal, settings, and the picker / dialog controls.

  • The sidebar's Projects list now defaults to most recent activity, with a
    sort control on the header to order workspace groups by recently added, name
    (A–Z or Z–A), or session count, or fall back to the manual added order. The
    choice persists in ~/.orbit-pi/workspaces.json and each project now records
    when it was added.

  • Each project in the sidebar can now wear its own mark: pick from a curated
    set of the bundled HugeIcons and tint it with one of eight semantic colors
    (which follow the active palette). Reach it from the workspace header's ⋯
    menu → Icon & color, with a Reset back to the folder default. The choice
    persists in ~/.orbit-pi/workspaces.json beside the project list.

Fixed

  • Images in issue/PR bodies, comments, and transcripts now render. The markdown image
    element forced a definite height: 0, and gpui derives a missing width from a definite
    height before the image decodes (0 × ratio), so a loaded screenshot collapsed to a 0×0
    box with only its border visible. The height is left auto now: the image scales to the
    reading column and taffy keeps its aspect ratio.

  • Screenshots in replies load again when GitHub stored them as signed
    private-user-images.githubusercontent.com/…?jwt=… URLs. That JWT expires within
    minutes, so the app got a 404 and showed the alt-text fallback; the renderer rewrites
    the URL to the durable github.com/user-attachments/assets/<uuid> form encoded in the
    filename, which serves the same image.

  • GitHub issue/PR bodies and comments now render screenshots that GitHub stored as raw
    HTML <img src="…"> tags when the line is inside a blockquote or list item — a quoted
    bug report is a common case. Previously only a standalone top-level <img> line became
    an image, so these showed the tag as text; the whole tag/its URL rendered as a link.

  • The New pull request form's Base branch picker, and the Template pickers on
    both new-issue/new-PR forms, no longer float over the wrong part of the form or paint
    behind its fields. They are anchored to the chip that opens them (opening upward at the
    bottom of the PR form), draw above the form, and use the top branch selector's dropdown
    chip (glyph, value, chevron) and picker surface — list inset, rows, and search row for
    the branch list.

  • The Issues tab's Label picker — the list filter chip and the detail view's
    Edit labels button — no longer opens at the page's top-right over the issue list.
    It anchors to the button that opened it, opens directly beneath it, and uses the same
    picker surface and rows as the branch selector.

  • The conversation rail's active tick now follows every navigation path, not
    just wheel and scrollbar gestures. Clicking a tick and pressing ⌘↑/⌘↓ scroll
    the list programmatically, which never fired gpui's scroll handler, so the
    highlight stayed on the turn the reader left behind. Repeated ⌘↑/⌘↓ presses
    also walked a single turn and stalled; they now step through the transcript,
    and ⌘↑ from the live edge jumps back to the previous turn instead of doing
    nothing. The viewport hint wins while a run streams too, so scrolling up to
    read history moves the rail even mid-stream.

  • The sidebar's project headers now stay pinned as you scroll through any
    expanded group, not just the active workspace. Previously only the open
    workspace's header was sticky, so a long list under the first project pinned
    while every other expanded project scrolled its header away.

  • The "open in" menu's app icons are crisp and no longer tiny. macOS returns an
    icon whose largest representation is 1024×1024, and the menu embedded that PNG
    unchanged, so the renderer's single bilinear pass had to squeeze it into a
    14px slot — the blur. Icons are now rasterized to exactly the pixel size the
    menu draws (36×36 for the now-18px slot, matching a Retina blit 1:1), which
    also drops each embedded icon from roughly 1 MB to 2 KB.
