Highlights
π§© Extension-Provided Skills & Commit Lifecycle Hooks
The Extension system gets two major upgrades. Extensions can now provide their own Skills directly, making it seamless to distribute custom workflows and capabilities through extensions. Additionally, new onBeforeCommit and onAfterCommit hooks give extensions full visibility into the commit lifecycle - perfect for enforcing policies, running validations, or triggering downstream actions whenever code is committed.
π― Skills Section in the Workspace Sidebar
A new Skills section is now available in the Workspace sidebar, giving you a clear overview of all available skills - including built-in, global, project-level, and extension-provided ones. You can manually activate and deactivate individual skills with a single click, making it easy to control exactly which capabilities are available for your current task without diving into settings.
π Redo Any User Prompt
Ever sent a prompt and immediately thought "I should have worded that differently"? Now you can redo any user prompt, not only the last one in your conversation history. Click the redo action, edit the message, and the conversation replays from that point - no more need to fork a task or manually delete messages.
π³ Worktree Rebase Improvements
The worktree experience continues to get better: when rebasing onto a different branch, we now correctly use the base commit to ensure accurate diffs. The merge button now shows the base branch name so you always know what you're merging into, and symlink folders are properly initialized when creating new tasks in worktree mode. We also improved the button order in the "Switch To Local" confirmation dialog for a more intuitive flow.
β‘ Smarter Tool Output
We've optimized how tool results are displayed: the Grep tool now outputs in markdown format for less token consumption, and we've added output truncation for both the Bash power tool and MCP tools to prevent overwhelming the conversation with excessively long outputs.
π Customizable Workspace Sidebar
You can now reorder and hide individual sections in the nely "promoted" Workspace sidebar. Want your Rules section at the top? Prefer to hide Context Files? Just drag to rearrange or toggle visibility - your layout, your way.
Other Changes
- Extension Management: Extensions are now sorted alphabetically after installation, and old extension files are properly cleaned up when switching between single-file and folder types.
- Bug Fixes:
- Excluded symlink folders and paths from worktree uncommitted changes detection.
- Updated initialization order for the Aider connector to improve startup stability.
- Hide the save prompt button when editing the last message to avoid confusion.
