Release Notes
AI - Agent: Added an agent.showturnstats setting, default to false, that shows the timer, the number of tokens, and whose turn it is. (46390) - Agent: Improved the UX for discarding partial edits by allowing the user to quickly restore the file to its original content. (46752) - Agent: Made the act of stopping a terminal tool call in the agent panel also cancel the thread generation. (46663) - Agent: Added the total and per-file number of lines added and removed in a thread. (46454) - Agent: Improved the settings configuration page for Ollama to store the current URL value if changed when clicking on "Connect". (46665) - Agent: Changed pressing esc when the agent panel is focused to now interrupt the running thread even if the text input box is not specifically focused. (46410) - Agent: Changed stopping the terminal tool to now capture its output up to that point so the model can see what was running when you stopped it. (46218, 46306) - Agent: Restricted agent server extension icon paths to subdirectories of the extension's root directory.

(46895; thanks hicder) This week's release includes a unified Git picker (combines branches, worktrees, and stashes), structured outline support for Markdown files, the ability to open local terminals in remote projects, and Agent panel improvements including turn statistics display, line change tracking, and better partial edit recovery. Features Git - Unified the branch, worktree, and stash pickers into one, making it easier to find and access them from one another.
