The terminal office where LLM agents work as coworkers. v0.2.8 fixes two of the most visible UX papercuts.

Features & fixes

  • Terminal tab: opt-in capture — the terminal tab no longer jails you: released by default (tab/1–7/ctrl+q work everywhere), ctrl+i dives into the shell (full grab semantics), ctrl+o releases, capture auto-drops when you leave the tab, no memory on re-enter
  • Transcript anchoring — think/tool rows keep first-seen timestamps (nothing swims past its boss bubble); subagent thread groups segment per work epoch so recycled desk names can no longer weld unrelated tasks together (each segment keeps its own title); thread keys anchor on the earliest positive timestamp
  • Restore banners stopped duplicating — boot notices are process-local now (never persisted; already-polluted session files self-clean)
  • Wedge watchdog refinement — send-side staging placeholders no longer masquerade as boss activity (completion event semantics)
