Version 3.7.0beta2 was built on May 5, 2026.

Changes since 3.7.0beta1:

Major New Features:
- Claude Code integration is now functional (beta1
  shipped only an onboarding stub). It’s built on
  a new feature called Workgroups: a workgroup
  lets a small group of related sessions live in
  the same pane and switch between each other via
  a per-session toolbar (or open as splits or tabs
  instead). The Claude Code workgroup pairs a chat
  session with a Code Review session for reviewing
  Claude’s changes. Configure workgroups in
  Settings > Shortcuts > Workgroups; still a work
  in progress.
- The new Clippings side panel attaches a list of
  context items to a session, shown alongside the
  terminal. The Claude Code integration uses it
  for Code Review findings, command output
  snippets, and similar context. Items render as
  Markdown; press Space or click the magnifying
  glass for a Quick Look-style preview.

New Features:
- An AI chat that’s linked to a session can be
  docked into that session’s window. Use the chat
  menu’s “Put Chat in Linked Session” item; toggle
  visibility with View > Show Inline Chat.
- New Python API App.async_apply_layout reshapes
  one or more tabs in a single transaction: swap
  panes, restructure splits, move sessions across
  tabs and windows.
- New “dual-mode” SGR colors let programs emit
  different fg/bg for light vs dark mode so
  scrollback stays readable across appearance
  toggles. Use CSI 38:12:Rl:Gl:Bl:Rd:Gd:Bd m for
  24-bit and CSI 38:13:Nl:Nd m for 256-color (and
  48 for backgrounds).

Improvements:
- The it2 command-line tool can post a clipping to
  the Clippings panel via `it2 add-clipping`.
- New global variable iterm2.appBundlePath holds
  the path to the running iTerm2.app for use in
  interpolated strings.
- The Copy Smart Selection Action accepts an
  interpolated-string parameter so the copied text
  can be derived from the match (for example, a
  capture group) instead of always being the whole
  match. Also fixes Copy from the right-click
  context menu being a no-op.
- Relative timestamps now use Go-style suffixes
  such as +1m23s and +2h5m, giving sub-minute
  precision in the 1m–1h range.
- Background images can rotate through a folder of
  images at a configurable interval. Pick a folder
  instead of a file in Settings > Profiles >
  Window > Background.
- Settings > Profiles > Text > Special Exceptions
  has a new Add Preset… button that inserts
  entries for common Unicode blocks (Arabic,
  Cyrillic, Greek, Han, Hangul, Hiragana/Katakana,
  Private Use Area). You still pick the font.
- iTerm2 now overrides the Se terminfo capability
  so Neovim 0.12+ restores your profile’s default
  cursor on exit instead of a block cursor.
- Improved energy efficiency, particularly on
  Apple Silicon.

Bug Fixes:
- Fixed various hangs that could cause a beachball
  (closing the Settings window, changing tab
  style, slow or wedged opendirectoryd lookups).
- The git status bar no longer times out silently
  in large repositories such as Chromium. When a
  poll does time out, the bar shows “⚠ timed out”;
  click it to double the timeout and retry.
- Fix bell and other user notifications not being
  posted when iTerm2 is fully covered by another
  app.
- Fix the cursor jumping to the end while typing
  in the middle of an annotation.
- Fix long custom commands failing immediately
  with a zsh “unmatched '” error.
- Fix shell escaping of embedded apostrophes and
  CR/LF in single-quote (POSIX) and $'…' (bash)
  modes.
- Fix the session’s hostname variable going stale
  when the system’s initial hostname (e.g. a
  transient DHCP-provided name) differs from the
  hostname the shell later reports.
- Fix “Save Current Window to File with Contents…”
  producing a file with no contents.
- Fix tmux window shrink on first attach when a
  pre-tmux session was buried.
- Quarantined .iterm2arrangement files (downloaded
  from the internet) now require explicit
  confirmation before opening, with a summary of
  embedded risk factors (custom commands,
  triggers, SSH targets, Smart Selection Actions,
  etc.). Reported by @naxus-audit.
- Extend the state-restoration database integrity
  check timeout to 120s after an unclean shutdown
  so the “taking a long time” prompt doesn’t
  appear on every post-crash launch.
- The password-manager CLI picker now accepts
  plain files named `bw` and the `bw` symlink
  target (e.g. `bw.js`), which fixes selecting
  Bitwarden’s `bw` on machines where Homebrew
  installs it as a Node.js script.
- Fix carriage return (\r) handling in the tmux
  integration’s escape-sequence decoder.
- Fix old (deleted) iTerm installs being detected
  as the default handler for a URL scheme.
- ⌥Y and the Character Viewer no longer insert a
  backslash instead of ¥ on non-JIS keyboards. ⌥+¥
  on JIS keyboards now sends ESC+\ again.
- Fix positioning of the “Delete sends ^H” control
  in profile key settings.
- Fix the session title popup being too narrow in
  the Edit Session panel.
- The Always/Never choice in the “restore
  tab/window title when an ssh session ends”
  prompt is now broadcast to other sessions
  showing the same prompt.
- Fix orphaned quotes appearing in the Jobs
  popover when process names contain shell-special
  characters (e.g. `package@version`).
- Fix Smart Selection Rule edits not flushing the
  profile or updating running sessions until
  Settings was reopened.
- Fix a ghost divider painted inside a tool after
  a manual toolbelt splitter resize.
- Fix a stray en-space being appended to the git
  status bar when it shows rich stats.
- Fix various crashes.
- Fix various memory leaks.
