• Improved the new Settings UI modal.
  • We forgot to mention that we turned this on by default for preview in v0.208 😱
• Fixed some items for Windows.

This week's release includes significant performance improvements for the project panel when working in large projects, support for action sequences in keymap bindings allowing you to chain multiple actions together, support for HTML tables and HTML block quotes in Markdown preview, more image types supported in the agent panel, and support for the outline in channel notes.

Features

AI

• Agent: Added support for pasting TIFF and BMP images in the agent panel. (#39767)
• Agent: Introduced the agent_buffer_font_size setting and renamed agent_font_size to agent_ui_font_size, allowing for granular buffer font size control in the agent panel vs. regular editors. (#39468)
• Agent: Aligned default shell path in system prompt with the actual path it is given. (#39344)

Windows Beta

• If installed, agents will now use git bash over PowerShell when invoking terminal commands. (#39466)

Breaking Changes and Notices

• Settings: Removed support for having format steps in both the format_on_save and formatter settings for languages. format_on_save is now restricted to the values of "on" and "off", and all format steps should be set under the formatter key. If you were using format_on_save but not formatter this will be migrated for you, otherwise it will require a manual migration. (#39400)

• Settings: Changed code action format in formatter and format_on_save settings. (#39375)

  Previous format:

  {
    "code_actions": {
      "source.organizeImports": true,
      "source.fixAll": true
    }
  }
  

  New format:

  [
    {"code_action": "source.organizeImports"},
    {"code_action": "source.fixAll"}
  ]
  

  After #39246, code actions run sequentially in order. The structure now reflects this and aligns with other formatter options (e.g., language servers). Both the formatter settings will be auto-migrated.

• Zed will no longer use node from your $PATH if it's older than 22.x (previously, the minimum version was 20.x). Instead, it will fall back to its bundled node. This fixes being unable to use Copilot if an older node was installed system-wide. (#39632)

• Added support for Grok 4 Fast models. (#39492)

• Fixed panic in delete line when following line contains multibyte characters
• Fixed panic when requesting completions after a multibyte character

This week's release includes support for using the basedpyright Python language server by default, external agents over SSH, plan mode for Claude Code, Git uncommit and blame view in multi buffers, more syntax tree navigation commands, a more familiar terminal toggling action that matches VSCode and JetBrains behavior, better URL detection in the terminal, many language improvements, and more!

Features

General

• Added blame view and inline blame support for multi buffer editors. (#37366)
• Added a new action terminal::Toggle that is by default bound to 'ctrl-`'. This copies the default behavior from VSCode and JetBrains where the terminal opens and closes correctly. If you'd like the old behavior you can rebind 'ctrl-`' to terminal::ToggleFocus. (#37585)
• Terminal: Improved URL detection to now correctly handle trailing punctuation from sentence context.

• Removed the chat feature from Zed (Sorry to the 5 of you who use this on the regular!). (#37789)
• Added built-in support for the basedpyright language server for Python. basedpyright is now enabled by default, and pyright (the primary Python language server previously) remains available, but is disabled by default. This supersedes the basedpyright extension, which can be uninstalled. Advantages of basedpyright over pyright include support for inlay hints, semantic highlighting, auto-import code actions, and stricter type checking. To switch back to pyright, add the following configuration to settings.json:

{
  "languages": {
    "Python": {
      "language_servers": ["pyright", "pylsp", "!basedpyright"]
    }
  }
}

• Added bindings for navigating between sibling nodes in the syntax tree on macOS (cmd-ctrl-{up/down} for SelectPreviousSyntaxNode and SelectNextSyntaxNode). Breaking change: the existing syntax tree parent/child navigation bindings have moved from ctrl-shift-{left/right} to cmd-ctrl-{left/right} to create a unified four-directional navigation pattern where all syntax tree operations use the same modifier combination. We could not use the previous base modifiers without breaking more bindings. (#37874)

• Claude Code: Fix subprocess leak on app quit (#37858)
• Fixed a bug where the commit generation message would not always show (#37857)
• Changed the behaviour when editing an old message in a native agent thread.

This week's release includes improved Python virtual environment propagation to LSP for more reliable language features, configurable auto-indentation per language, file status indicators in multibuffer headers, and an improved project panel empty state.

Features

• Added rendering of file status indicators for multibuffer headers. (#36489)
• Added context menu for buffer titles. (#36398)
• Added an option for the status_bar.cursor_position_button. Setting to false will hide the button. It defaults to true. (#36288; thanks zumbalogy)

Languages

• Added the possibility to configure auto-indentation for all languages and per language. Add "auto_indent": false to your settings or desired language to disable the feature. (#36259)
• Python: Improved propagation of a selected virtual environment into the LSP configuration. This should make all language-related features such as Go to definition or Find all references more reliable. (#35270)

Breaking Changes and Notices

• The Zed Plex Sans and Zed Plex Mono fonts have been replaced with IBM Plex Sans and Lilex. The old names still work for backward compatibility. Other than fixing line-drawing characters and improving the ligatures, there should be little visual change as the fonts are all of the same family. (#36084)
• Introduced .ZedSans and .ZedMono as aliases to allow us to easily change the default fonts in the future. These currently default to IBM Plex Sans and Lilex respectively. (#36084)
• Removed the /docs slash command. (#36325)
• Removed Services menu on non-macOS systems which was causing an empty menu item being rendered. (#36142; thanks AlvaroParker)

• Updated the sign-in flow to not show the sign-in success page prematurely. (#36440)

• Create agent checkpoints more frequently (before every edit). (#36253)
• OpenAI-compatible models now have configurable capabilities. (#36370; thanks @calesennett)
• Fixed API key input fields getting shrunk in Agent Panel settings view on low panel widths paired with high UI font sizes. (#36362)
• Keymap Editor: Fixed an issue where leaving the arguments field empty would result in an error even if arguments were optional. (#36278)
• Fixed OpenAI-compatible providers that don't support prompt caching and/or reasoning. (#36231)
• Fixed an issue where Dart projects were being formatted incorrectly by the language server. (#36234)
• Fixed a bug where changing the toolbar.breadcrumbs setting didn't immediately update the UI when saving the settings.json file. (#36177)
