Supported agents

Every agent Orca ships with out of the box, plus how to add your own.

Orca works with any CLI agent — the agent combobox just launches a process in a terminal. The following ship preconfigured in the built-in agent picker with one-click launch/setup; deeper hooks, status, usage tracking, and account switching are noted where supported.

Permissions default

Orca pre-fills each supported CLI's permission-bypass flag for new launches — --dangerously-skip-permissions for Claude, --dangerously-bypass-approvals-and-sandbox for Codex, --yolo for Gemini / Cursor / Crush / Kimi / Rovo Dev / Hermes / GitHub Copilot / Command Code, plus the equivalent flag for every other agent that exposes one. The reasoning is that worktrees are disposable: an agent running in its own checkout can experiment without you re-confirming every shell command, and you can still cherry-pick or discard the diff before merging.

Use Settings → Agents → Agent Permissions when you want to switch all uncustomized agents between Yolo and Manual launches. If you already overrode a specific agent's launch arguments or environment, Orca leaves that agent alone so the global switch doesn't erase your custom command.

To restore prompts for one agent only, edit that agent's default arguments or environment in Settings. Orca treats a non-empty custom value as an explicit override and opts that agent out of future permission-mode migrations.
