Features

AI

• Made the thread generation be top-down instead of bottom-up. Agent content now streams from the top and auto-scrolls as it goes beyond the viewport. (#52440)
• Reduced amount of tokens consumed by tool descriptions. (#52678)
• Changed to prefer the currently used agent per-project when creating a new thread. (#52888)
• Refined thinking block display, removing layout shift while still allowing it to be readable while it streams in. Added a agent.thinking_display setting to control the behavior ("automatic", "always_expanded", "always_collapsed"). (#52608)
• Made token usage display consistent between the models that support displaying split usage (input and output) and those that don't. (#52599)
• Improved auto-scroll of subagent content in preview cards, ensuring the content is always visible until the end. (#52719)
• Improved the experience of interacting with subagents waiting for confirmation. (#52460)
• Improved adding selection as context particularly for terminals, making them not depend on open buffers. (#52860)
• ACP: Added the ability to restart agent servers from the Agent Settings panel. (#52401)

Git

• Added automatic switching from split mode to unified mode in the git diff view when the pane is narrower than a configurable minimum column count. You can configure this via the new minimum_split_diff_width setting. (#52781)

Languages

• Improved resolution speed of theme highlight capture names. This might change highlighting in some rare edge cases, but should overall make highlighting more predictable. Theme captures will now follow a strict prefix matching, so e.g. function.call.decorator.jsx will now be matched by only function, function.call, function.call.decorator and function.call.decorator.jsx with the most specific capture always taking precedence. (#52183)
• Significantly reduced memory used to record internal profiling information. (#45197; thanks sourcefrog)

This week's release includes BYOK support for the new 1M context window on Claude Opus and Sonnet, git panel improvements including a badge showing uncommitted change counts and file type icons, an action to align multiple cursors, pinch-to-zoom in the image viewer, and an easier way to unbind default key bindings.

Features

AI

• Agent: Updated BYOK integration to support the new 1M context window for Claude Opus and Sonnet. (#51625)
• Agent: Terminal tool permissions regexes can now match environment variables. Bare interpolations like $FOO are disallowed when permissions regexes are active for security. (#51689)
• Agent: Streaming text in threads now displays more fluidly. (#51499)
• Agent: Improved visibility of thinking blocks by making them auto-expanded while in progress. (#51525)
• Agent: Added support for usage tracking when streaming responses from OpenAI providers. (#45812; thanks Oft3r)
• Agent: API key input in the Add LLM provider modal is now masked. (#50379; thanks cppcoffee)
• Agent: Updated the display of tokens for xAI models to reflect the input/output limits. (#48719; thanks anilpai)
• Edit Prediction: Added an error indicator in the edit prediction menu when the free tier limit is exceeded. (#51447)

Git

• Added a numeric badge to the git panel sidebar icon showing the count of uncommitted changes. Enable with git_panel.show_count_badge (off by default). (#49624; thanks IVainqueur)
• Git panel now supports file type icons (like in the project panel) from icon theme extensions. Enable with git_panel.file_icons (off by default). Folder icons are on by default and can be toggled with git_panel.folder_icons. (#51000; thanks kickbelldev)
• Project panel now colors folders containing deleted files. (#51553; thanks tidefield)
• Improved latency of stage/unstage operations. (#47806; thanks marcocondrache)
• Changed the git diff status to render + and - using the font instead of icons. (#51411)

Languages

• C/C++: Added clangd readonly token modifier to semantic token rules to highlight constant variables as constants. (#49065; thanks ozacod)
• C++: Recognize module interface files as C++ files. (#45968; thanks hokein)
• TSX: Removed rainbow bracket colorization for angled brackets. (#51311; thanks jackkkonggg)

Vim / Helix

• Vim: Repeat (.) now increments the recorded register when using numbered registers. (#50753; thanks feitreim)

Collaboration

• Improved recovery of audio latency after CPU-intensive periods. (#51647)

Remote Development

• Added remote hostname to title bar project picker tooltip. (#51616; thanks watsoncj)

Windows

• Improved Python toolchain discovery under WSL environments. (#51749; thanks lingyaochu)
• Improved compatibility with mounted VHDs. (#50974; thanks foxmsft)

Linux

• Relaxed requirement for libstdc++.so on Linux distributions. (#51433)

Other

• Added editor::AlignSelections action to align multiple cursors. (#44769; thanks tiagolobao)
• Added support for unbinding key bindings from the default keymap. (#52047) You can now remove default bindings you don't want, without having to re-declare default bindings that use the same keys. For instance, to unbind tab from editor: accept edit prediction, you can put the following in your keymap.json:

  [
    {
      "context": "Editor && edit_prediction",
      "unbind": {
        "tab": "editor::AcceptEditPrediction"
      }
    }
  ]
  

  Deleting or editing default bindings in the keymap editor will now unbind the default bindings, rather than binding them to null/zed::NoAction.
• Added editor::GoToPreviousSymbol and editor::GoToNextSymbol actions to navigate to previous and next outline symbols. Uses either the tree-sitter outline or the LSP-provided outline depending on configuration. (#50777; thanks nishanthkarthik)

• Added scroll-to-top and scroll-to-bottom keybindings for markdown preview (gg/G in Vim mode, cmd-up/cmd-down on macOS, ctrl-home/ctrl-end on Linux/Windows). (#50460; thanks dremnik)

Breaking Changes and Notices

Replaced the edit_prediction_conflict key context with edit_prediction && (showing_completions || in_leading_whitespace). The edit_prediction context is now available whenever a prediction is present, rather than being mutually exclusive with edit_prediction_conflict. This change will be migrated automatically, however, will be a breaking change if you previously depended on edit_prediction and edit_prediction_conflict being mutually exclusive.

Additionally, the default behavior now uses edit_prediction && showing_completions (without in_leading_whitespace), meaning tab will accept a completion rather than inserting a literal tab when the cursor is in leading whitespace and a prediction is present.

If you previously customized your edit prediction keybindings, you can likely simplify your keymap.json significantly using "unbind" - see the docs.
