v0.2.6

What's new in v0.2.6

Added

• Added a "Share as secret gist" button to the assistant message hover toolbar, allowing you to save a reply as a secret gist with one click. On success, the gist URL is copied to your clipboard and opened in the browser.
• Multi-select and bulk actions on the My work table — select multiple PRs or issues and act on them all at once via the command palette
• Repository clone deep links (gh://clone/owner/repo and gh://github.com/owner/repo) now open Quick Open prefilled with the repository URL, routing you into the existing clone/add repository flow.
• Visual Studio installations are now detected and available in the "Open in" IDE list on Windows.

Changed

• In branch (in-place) workspaces, the agent now routes PR creation to a new worktree-backed session by default instead of opening a PR directly from the local clone. Users can still create a PR from the current session by explicitly asking (e.g. "open the PR from this branch").
• Moved the file folder picker button and tree to the left side of the file view, next to the file path.
• The agent-merge feature now re-checks CI and pull request status every 10 minutes by default, down from 30 minutes, so the agent responds more promptly after CI finishes.
• The command palette now animates smoothly on open, scaling and fading in instead of appearing abruptly.
• The folder tree is now the permanent file navigation experience for workspace files. The experimental settings toggle to disable it has been removed.
• Updated onboarding discovery cards to better clarify that sessions run in their own worktree and that pull requests are created manually when you're ready.

Fixed

• Added read:org scope to OAuth token requests, fixing gh pr edit and other org-scoped operations hanging for ~3 minutes before timing out
• Arrow keys now move the cursor correctly when renaming a file inline, instead of being intercepted by tree navigation.
• Bold and italic toolbar formatting in the Markdown editor now visually appears in the editor surface as expected.
• Chart canvases now update live when the agent edits the backing artifact, instead of showing stale content.
• Clicking an artifact pill in group view now navigates to the correct session before opening the artifact.
• Comments and replies on diff lines no longer interrupt the agent mid-task — they are now queued and delivered after the current agent turn completes.
• File viewer (Cmd-P) now refreshes automatically when the underlying file is updated by a tool or other change, instead of showing stale content.
• Fixed a bug where the agent's reply-to-review-comment tool could send duplicate replies to the same review thread in a loop.
• Fixed an issue where editing a saved workflow prompt that starts with a slash command would immediately show the slash suggestions popup, obscuring the edit form.
• Fixed an issue where formatting in the markdown editor could trigger an unnecessary loading spinner during autosave
• Fixed an issue where the diff view would get stuck in an outdated state when a comment composer was opened but abandoned without entering any content
• Fixed broken images in pull request bodies and comments that appeared as broken placeholders in the app.
• Fixed file sort order in the changed-files sidebar to match github.com when directory names share a prefix.
• Fixed markdown editors in the right panel flickering back to a loading state when the agent modified files.
• Fixed Share Feedback from the macOS Help menu not working when the sidebar was collapsed.
• Fixed the agent create_session tool failing to create sessions in folder-backed projects. It now creates a folder workspace instead of attempting a git worktree against a non-git directory.
• Forking a pinned session now keeps the fork pinned in the sidebar automatically.
• Markdown images in the PR view now render at their intrinsic size and scale down proportionally when the panel is narrower than the image.
• Merge assistance now correctly handles stacked PRs whose base branch has been auto-retargeted by GitHub, avoiding stale base branch data during merges.
• Pasting a PR URL into Cmd-K for a repository not yet connected to the app now correctly opens that PR after the repository is cloned, instead of falling back to a generic draft session.
• PR check run rows now open the GitHub PR checks page for that run, instead of the provider's external details URL
• Queued messages panel no longer expands wider than the composer when messages contain long content
• Reduced flickering and blank states when switching between Repository and Artifacts in the file-tab folder picker.
• Reduced UI lag when switching between sessions with multiple sessions open
• Session references in markdown now correctly resolve and navigate to the referenced session, including when the session is known through workspace state.
• The file tree filter now stays visible while scrolling through long file lists, so you no longer need to scroll back to the top to filter the tree.
• Windows installers now clean up legacy installs, removing stale shortcuts and registry entries that could cause the old app to launch unexpectedly.
• Workflow prompts now support multi-line input using the Enter key.
• Workflow sessions are now correctly scoped to their project's account, preventing GitHub Enterprise repositories from inheriting the wrong host (github.com) when running project workflows.
