oragent 0.3.5

Agent Supervisor for AI coding agents — a state-aware cockpit for managing multiple Claude Code, Codex, and Shell sessions in parallel.

Oragent

An Agent Supervisor for AI coding agents — a state-aware cockpit so you see which agent needs you, auto-handle routine permissions, and stay in flow.

✨ Features

• Built-in Claude Code / Codex / Shell session support

• High-performance line-level rendered preview (TerminalView) with Strip caching
• Interactive cursor overlay in snapshot preview
• Raw-stdin interactive input path with Shift+Enter / Alt+Enter newline compatibility
• Preview cache and single-flight refresh to reduce repeated preview work
• Typing-aware smart refresh: suppresses preview updates during rapid input
• Preview truncation hint when pane history exceeds the current 1000-line preview window
• WAITING auto-focus with FIFO queue processing
• Per-session Auto Pilot
• Home page, session panel toggle, and smoother session deletion flow
• Read-only diagnostics for cursor stability and live-session latency profiling
• macOS notifications

▶️ Usage

oragent

⌨️ Keybindings

Normal Mode

Key	Action
↑ / ↓	Navigate sessions
n	New session
r	Rename session
i	Enter Interactive mode
a / d	Approve / Deny permission request
1-9	Select numbered permission option
p	Toggle Auto Pilot
c	Select mode (text copy)
Ctrl+\	Toggle session panel
Ctrl+x	Delete session
q	Quit Oragent

Interactive Mode

All keystrokes pass through directly to the selected agent session.

Key	Action
Ctrl-]	Exit to Normal mode
Ctrl+\	Toggle session panel
Shift+Enter	Newline (kitty protocol terminals)
Alt+Enter	Newline (legacy terminals)
Mouse click on session list	Switch session

🪟 Preview Behavior

• Normal and interactive preview both keep a bounded 1000-line window.
• When older content is omitted from the preview window, Oragent shows a truncation banner below the preview.
• Waiting detection and Auto Pilot still use plain capture-pane, independent of preview truncation.

Environment variables:

• ORAGENT_PREVIEW_HISTORY_LINES Current implementation clamps this to at least 1000.
• ORAGENT_INTERACTIVE_PREVIEW_HISTORY_LINES Current implementation also clamps this to at least 1000.
• ORAGENT_USE_LEGACY_INTERACTIVE_VIEW=1 Disables the interactive cursor overlay path and falls back to the legacy interactive preview behavior.
• ORAGENT_OUTPUT_DEBOUNCE_MS Drain output debounce interval in ms (default 16, ≈60fps).
• ORAGENT_TYPING_SUPPRESS_MS During interactive mode, defer preview refreshes while the user is typing faster than this threshold (default 0, disabled). The historical default 80 was calibrated to a pre-optimisation ~80 ms capture cost; since the one-shot capture path (~6 ms) there is nothing to coalesce. Set to 80 to restore the legacy behaviour if needed.

Migrating from CCT? All CCT_* env vars are still recognized in v0.3.x with a deprecation warning, and will be removed in v0.4.0.

🧪 Diagnostics

• python tests/e2e_cursor_scope.py Verifies cursor position and mixed ASCII / Chinese input stability.
• python tests/e2e_latency_scope_existing_sessions.py Reuses current live tmux sessions in read-only mode to profile preview, list, and polling costs.
• python tests/e2e_interactive_latency.py Measures interactive mode latency: drain debounce, capture, parse, render, and end-to-end refresh cycle.

📝 Notes

• The current interactive preview is still tmux snapshot based, not a full terminal-buffer renderer.
• v0.2.2 replaced RichLog with a line-level TerminalView (ScrollView + render_line), reducing preview render cost by ~61%. Combined with drain debounce reduction and typing-aware smart refresh, end-to-end interactive latency dropped from ~145ms to ~65ms.
• v0.2.5 fixed interactive cursor off-by-one offset caused by trailing newline in tmux capture-pane output. Session names now truncate with ellipsis instead of disappearing when the panel is narrow.
