Key features include parallel and stacked branches (without stashing), unlimited undo via an operations log, simplified commit editing commands (reword, amend, squash, absorb, move), built-in GitHub/GitLab PR integration, and JSON output for all commands to support scripting and AI agents. Installation is available via Homebrew, a curl script, or through the existing desktop client. The tool is currently in technical preview and Mac-focused, with broader platform support in progress. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
