* refactor(cli): split runtime-client.ts into runtime/ subsystem
Break the 413-line src/cli/runtime-client.ts into focused modules under
src/cli/runtime/:
- types.ts — RuntimeRpcSuccess/Failure, RuntimeClientError,
RuntimeRpcFailureError
- metadata.ts — readMetadata / tryReadMetadata /
getDefaultUserDataPath
- transport.ts — sendRequest: Unix-socket newline-framed JSON with
id and runtimeId verification and timeout handling
- status.ts — getCliStatus + buildCliStatusResponse +
isProcessRunning
- launch.ts — launchOrcaApp + macOS .app-bundle resolution +
ELECTRON_RUN_AS_NODE env handling
- client.ts — RuntimeClient class, now a thin composer
- index.ts — subsystem barrel
runtime-client.ts becomes a backward-compat re-export barrel so
src/cli/index.ts and the existing tests import the same symbols from
the same path. No behavior changes.
Motivation: the file had an eslint-disable max-lines override and
mixed five concerns (envelope types, wire transport, metadata I/O,
status aggregation, cross-platform app launch). Splitting them makes
each concern independently testable and unblocks adding schema
validation at the RPC boundary.
* feat(cli): validate runtime RPC envelope with Zod at decode boundary
Add RuntimeRpcEnvelopeSchema and apply it inside sendRequest so every
response frame is validated against the id/ok/result/error/_meta shape
before the CLI hands it to the caller. The payload (`result`) is left
as unknown — the TResult generic remains the caller's responsibility —
so only the envelope itself is the contract this schema enforces.
Motivation: the CLI and the Orca main runtime are separate processes
and can drift in version (older CLI vs newer app, or vice versa during
dev HMR). A malformed or partial frame used to risk mis-typed field
access downstream; it now surfaces as a single structured
`invalid_runtime_response` error.
Behavior:
- Well-formed success and failure frames continue to decode unchanged.
- Failure frames without `_meta` are accepted (the runtime may fail
before resolving its own runtimeId).
- Valid JSON that does not match the envelope shape now rejects with
`invalid_runtime_response`, matching the existing error code for
non-JSON frames.
Tests: adds a pure schema test file
(src/cli/runtime/envelope-schema.test.ts) covering accept/reject cases.
The existing integration tests in runtime-client.test.ts continue to
pass unchanged.

Features
- No login required — Bring your own Claude Code or Codex subscription.
- Worktree-native — Every feature gets its own worktree. No stashing, no branch juggling. Spin up and switch instantly.
- Multi-agent terminals — Run multiple AI agents side-by-side in tabs and panes. See which ones are active at a glance.
- Built-in source control — Review AI-generated diffs, make quick edits, and commit without leaving Orca.
- GitHub integration — PRs, issues, and Actions checks linked to each worktree automatically.
- SSH support — Connect to remote machines and run agents on them directly from Orca.
- Notifications — Know when an agent finishes or needs attention. Mark threads unread to come back later.
Install
- Download from onOrca.dev
- Or download the latest binaries via the GitHub Releases page.
[New] Annotate AI Diff
Comment directly on AI-generated diffs.
Annotate any line in an AI-generated diff with your feedback, then send it back to the agent to revise. Keep the review loop tight — no copying line numbers, no context switching.
[New] Hot Swap Codex Accounts
Multiple Codex accounts? Switch in one click.
If you run multiple Codex accounts to get the best token deal, Orca lets you hot-swap between them instantly — no re-login, no config files. Just pick an account and keep building.
[New] Per Worktree Browser & Design Mode
See your app. Click any element. Drop it into the chat.
Orca ships with a built-in browser right inside your worktree. Preview your app as you build, then switch to Design Mode — click any UI element and it lands directly in your AI chat as context. No screenshots, no copy-pasting selectors. Just point at what you want to change and tell the agent what to do.
[New] Introducing the Orca CLI
Agent orchestration from your terminal.
Let your AI agent control your IDE. Use AI to add projects to your IDE, spin up worktrees, and update the current worktree's comment with meaningful progress checkpoints directly from the terminal. Ships with the Orca IDE (install under Settings).
