Workaround

Switching to another window and then back to T3 Code helps (I did that at the end of the video)

Reproduced on current main ed9b7ca9c5 with the real web dev server on Linux/Chromium (1280×800), using an isolated Git repository and seeded stopped threads. In a new chat, opened the terminal and ran git switch -c repro-terminal-7409; Git switched successfully, while the composer and Thread details branch labels stayed on main. Repeated with another branch; the labels remained stale for over 50 seconds with the page focused and visible. Dispatching a window refocus event refreshed the previous checkout. Native macOS/Electron was not tested.

Reproduction recording.

Related open work: #22807 refreshes status when opening the picker; that does not provide the automatic update reported here. #11078 concerns the sidebar after moving worktrees and is a different surface.

Fix published in #23422. The original regression fails on the before revision; 15 focused server tests pass on the fix. Fresh paired browser recordings could not be obtained because the dev client failed to start; web visual behavior and native macOS/Electron remain unverified. The PR records the capture failure and is not marked ready to merge.
