 # Changelog
 
+## 0.3.0
+
+- Open image previews: each inline image gets an **Open image** link, and `/orca-images open` opens the latest image in macOS Preview. Previews are written to temporary files. Thanks to [@Ky1ezer0](https://github.com/Ky1ezer0) (#1).
+
 ## 0.2.3
 
 - Fix: Pi crashed with "This extension ctx is stale after session replacement or reload" when an `[Image N]` label was in the prompt after `/resume`, `/new`, `/fork` or `/reload`. Pi hands extensions a Proxy over the TUI that ignores `delete`, so the old session's render hook was never removed and kept styling labels with its stale ctx.

 It recognizes pastes made only of existing image files (`png`, `jpg`, `gif`, `webp`, `bmp`, `tiff`, `heic`, `avif`): plain paths, `~/` paths, quoted or backslash-escaped paths, and `file://` URLs. Text that mixes a path with other words is left alone. This works in every terminal, not only Orca, including Pi's own clipboard paste. Set `PI_IMAGE_LABELS=0` to turn it off.
 
+## Open image previews
+
+Each rendered image gets an **Open image** file link beneath it. **Cmd-click** the link on macOS to open the preview through your terminal. In our Orca test, this opens an Orca image tab with zoom controls. Direct image clicks and hover-to-zoom are not supported.
+
+On macOS, `/orca-images open` opens the last image rendered by Pi in **Preview**, using `open -a Preview`.
+
+Preview copies are saved in a private `pi-orca-images-*` directory under the OS temporary directory, never in the project. Identical images reuse a file within each loaded extension instance. Files survive `/reload` and are deleted on normal Pi process exit; links expire when their files are removed. Crashes or forced termination can leave files behind, and long-running sessions can still accumulate previews. Older `.pi/image-previews/` folders are not automatically removed.
+
+The saved bytes are those available to Pi and may already have been resized by a tool. Previews require automatic Orca detection and a writable temporary directory. They are inactive when `PI_ORCA_IMAGES=0` or an explicit `PI_IMAGE_PROTOCOL` overrides detection. The link and Preview command were tested with Pi 1.5.2 on macOS; opening through the command requires macOS Preview.

 ## Commands
 
 | Command | Effect |
 |---|---|
 | `/orca-images` or `/orca-images status` | Shows the detection decision, Pi's active image protocol, and whether the repaint fix and image labels are on |
 | `/orca-images test` | Draws a test gradient (it is not sent to the model) |
+| `/orca-images open` | Opens the last rendered image in macOS Preview |
 | `/orca-images redraw` | Re-sends every visible image right now |
 
 ## Configuration
 
-It does nothing outside Orca. Your explicit choices always win:
+The rendering fixes and preview links activate only in Orca; pasted image labels can work in any terminal. Your explicit choices always win:

 | `PI_IMAGE_PROTOCOL=…` | Used as is; the package does not override it |
 | `terminal.images` in Pi settings | Applied by Pi on top of the package's choice |
@@ -69,6 +80,7 @@ It does nothing outside Orca. Your explicit choices always win:
 - Pi 1.4 in its default `fullscreen` TUI mode. In `regular` mode detection still works, but the repaint fix and tab recovery do not apply.
 - Not inside tmux or screen: image escapes do not reach Orca through them.
 - Image labels wrap internal methods of Pi's editor (`handlePaste`, `segment`, `expandPasteMarkers`, `render`). If a Pi release changes them, pasted paths simply stay as paths.
+- Preview links read internal fields of Pi's image component. If those fields change or preview copies cannot be saved, links are omitted.
 - The repaint fix wraps two internal methods of Pi's TUI. If a Pi release renames them, `/orca-images status` reports the fix as `unavailable` and images fall back to the first-row behavior; detection keeps working.
