| **Built-in Browser** | Preview any URL in a tab next to your terminals so every pane can see its own running dev server without alt-tabbing. | 
|
| **Resource Manager** | Built-in CPU and memory monitor broken down per pane and per process, so you can catch a runaway agent before it eats your laptop. | 
|
-| **Status Cues** | Project dots show where work is happening, pane names breathe while active, and a dashed underline marks panes that finished while you were looking elsewhere. | 
|
+| **Status Cues** | Every AI pane reports its state at a glance — a red dot when an agent is blocked waiting on your approval, an amber pulse while it works, and a "done" cue when it finishes while you're looking elsewhere. The same rollup colors the project dots and pane tabs, so a whole screen of parallel agents reads in one glance. | 
|
| **Auto Secrets Copy** | Every pane automatically mirrors `.env` files and secrets from your root project so your worktree is runnable the moment it's created. | |
| **Isolated Ports** | Each pane runs on its own port range automatically, so you can spin up five dev servers in parallel without a single conflict. | |
