Overview

Today every Hero app opens as an island inside the hero_os shell. Users want the option to open an app in a new browser tab so they can use multiple apps side-by-side without window-management inside the shell.

Why

Meeting 2026-05-06: "other apps we can open up hero in new tabs".

Acceptance

  • Each app surface has a stable deep-link URL that loads the app standalone (auth + theme intact)
  • Right-click "Open in new tab" works from the dock and from any island launcher
  • Auth session shared across tabs
  • Theme preference shared (per hero_proc theme secret — see hero_proc#94)
  • Visual test with Hero Browser MCP
  • Skill: hero_ui_routes, hero_os_ui_tests
  • hero_os#30 — URL routing for apps (related)
