Wox v2.4.3

on GitHub

This release adds query hints so Web Search and other commands can collect multiple named inputs with Tab instead of a single free-text box.

• Add

  • [Query] Add query hints for command templates so users can fill multi-part commands with argument chips, ghost placeholders, and Tab completion. Web Search templates can collect multiple named inputs, including selected text and clipboard text captured before the launcher takes focus.
  • [Feedback] Add a built-in Feedback plugin to export diagnostics, review crash reports, clear logs before a reproduction, and open GitHub issues or feature requests.
    

• Improve

  • [AI] Group the provider dropdown into API and Installed CLI, use brand icons for local CLI providers, and allow searching the list
  • [AI Chat] Support popping a conversation into a dedicated window that keeps the unsent draft after the launcher hides, attach selected text, files, and images without mixing them into instructions, edit {wox:...} placeholders as tokens #4543, and grow the composer from one to five wrapped lines
  • [File Search] Show OS recent files for an empty File Search query, using Windows Jump Lists, macOS Spotlight last-used dates, and Linux recently-used.xbel
  • [Quick Jump] Rename File Explorer Search to Quick Jump (jump), keep saved paths per OS, skip ignored applications, navigate Wox's own Windows pickers, and inject 32-bit window hooks so 32-bit hosts such as Foxmail and Office work #4511
  • [App] Support hide-from-search with live wildcard or selected-app ignore rules and a match preview #4537, and support Japanese (ja_JP)
  • [Clipboard] Support pasting clipboard images and emoji into the active window #4538
  • [Plugin] Support query refinements and static HTML previews, runtime trigger-keyword registration, and a WPM action that copies an AI prompt for creating a plugin
  • [Launcher] Support resetting a result's usage-based ranking from the action panel, group system actions, and validate required fields in query-requirement forms
  • [Hotkey] Improve macOS hotkey recording with an Accessibility permission prompt and a local fallback when global recording is unavailable #4548
  • [Preview] Defer large text, Office, and PDF previews behind a details-first gate so rapid selection does not start heavy reads
  • [Browser] Improve browser window identification so tab results stay scoped to the active browser #4542
  • [Converter] Expand unit, currency, date, and percentage queries into typed expressions so nested conversions, tips, workdays, and timezone sentences compose in one query, with copy actions for formatted, raw, and question-answer results
    
  • [Query] Support saving the current query as a shortcut from the action panel, and add a Query Test button in settings for query hotkeys, shortcuts, and tray queries
  • [Folder] Support Windows environment variables such as %LOCALAPPDATA% in folder paths
  • [Notes] Support reordering checklist tasks by dragging the trailing handle

• Fix

  • [App] Fix Linux apps whose icons sit directly in XDG data icon dirs showing the default icon
  • [Quick Jump] Fix Windows Move Items folder choosers and cut hung window-hook waits that delayed dialog navigation #4511
  • [UI] Fix hidden WebView renderers being destroyed on Windows memory trim, and clip native file previews under overlays so they match rounded corners
  • [Launcher] Fix caret placement on long query text
  • [AI Chat] Fix conversations resetting about every 30 seconds when App directory scans refreshed the query #4551, and keep fullscreen chat after hide/show
