Manus introduced Branch, a feature that lets users create parallel sessions from any point in a conversation. Each branch inherits the full context—instructions, files, and history—while the original session remains unchanged. Branching is available to all users in standard chat sessions but not yet in Web Builder sessions.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://manus.im/blog/manus-branch:

> Click the branch icon beneath any message and Manus opens a parallel session that inherits everything up to that point — your instructions, your files, and the full history. The original stays exactly as it was. The new branch becomes a separate space where you can take the same starting context somewhere new, without contaminating what came before.
