### Fixes
- **Improve WSL startup synchronization** — Enhanced Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) registration reconciliation to better handle timing constraints during server startup. The system now exposes the reconciliation status ('pending', 'settled', or 'failed') to headless clients and adds a bounded wait mechanism so that slow WSL repairs don't block remote access initialization, while still giving launchers a chance to migrate before PTY connections become available. (13ed697)
- **Speed up worktree status checks** — Optimized Git repository status monitoring to skip unnecessary HEAD identity reads when only file index changes occur. The system now separately tracks index changes from HEAD/log changes, preventing wasteful file scans across multiple worktrees during quiet local Git operations. (6091995)
- **Fix WSL orchestration CLI preambles** — Updated WSL terminal environment configuration to properly set and pass through the ORCA_CLI_COMMAND variable, ensuring managed WSL shells use the correct CLI command identifier ('orca-ide' for packaged or 'orca-dev' for dev mode). Also added a new parameter to track whether to skip certain environment configurations for Windows shells. (17f032d)
- **Improved relay process stability** — Fixed an issue where relay watcher processes weren't properly bounded, which could cause instability. The system now better manages and limits healthy relay processes to prevent resource exhaustion. (6eda9cd)
- **Fixed e2e test suite failures** — Repaired 20 failing end-to-end tests across multiple areas, including a real product bug where pressing Escape while editing a link in the markdown editor dismissed the entire link bubble instead of just canceling the edit. Also fixed the profile switcher button visibility in e2e builds and hardened various timing and layout assertions to reduce flakiness. (e98bfd6)

### UI
- **Keep active agent sessions visible** — Fixed the "Hide sleeping" sidebar filter to properly recognize workspaces with running agent sessions, even when their live terminal connection is temporarily absent (like during SSH reconnects). The filter now checks for active agent status in addition to live PTY connections, matching the behavior of the smart sort feature. (0b65d72)

### Backend
- **Release candidate version bump** — Version updated from 1.4.138-rc.6 to 1.4.138-rc.7 for the next release candidate. (9a77f56)
