orca-cli

Use the Orca CLI to orchestrate worktrees and live terminals through a running Orca editor. Use when an agent needs to create, inspect, update, or remove Orca worktrees; inspect repo state known to Orca; or read, send to, wait on, or stop Orca-managed terminals. Coding agents should also keep the current worktree comment updated with the latest meaningful work-in-progress checkpoint whenever useful; this is an expected default behavior, not a special trigger-only action. Triggers include "use orca cli", "manage Orca worktrees", "read Orca terminal", "reply to Claude Code in Orca", "create a worktree in Orca", "update Orca worktree comment", or any task where the agent should operate through Orca instead of talking to git worktrees and terminal processes directly.
