What's New in v0.28.30

An Artifacts view in the Inbox, comments on part of an image, diagrams in code review, and Ask AI that keeps its conversation across documents in annotate. 9 PRs, one from a first-time contributor, @mvanhorn.

Plannotator Inbox

Artifacts

A thread's header has an Artifacts button that shows every file, image and guided review in the thread as one grid, newest first. A tile opens the file in the viewer beside the grid, and stepping in the viewer keeps thread order.

• #2122

Split or Unified diffs in guided reviews

A guided review in the Inbox has a Split | Unified tab on its first file. The choice applies to every file in the review. Phones always show one column.

• #2119, closing #2107

Re-ask from the open-questions list

Re-ask moved into the "N open questions" list and now works for a single question too.

• #2113

Smaller changes

• Action items use the thread's text size, so the card no longer looks larger than the messages and question cards around it. #2123

Plannotator

Comment on part of an image

In annotate and plan review, open an image from the document, switch to Region and drag a box to comment on that part of it. The agent gets the image, its line in the file, the box in the image's own pixels, and your comment.

• #2117, closing #2100

Diagrams in code review

Mermaid and Graphviz diagrams in a Markdown file's Read and Changes views are now drawn, and so is the diagram in a guide overview. The diagram engine loads only when a review has one, so a review without diagrams loads nothing extra.

• #2110, closing #2096

Ask AI keeps its conversation in annotate

Moving between files in a folder session, opening a linked document, or going back no longer clears the Ask AI conversation. Each question still carries the document it was asked about.

• #2103 by @mvanhorn, closing #1001

Smaller changes

• Updates are checked about once an hour instead of once a day, so a new release shows up sooner. It is still one small request at most per hour. #2112
• The update toast says what Update does: it installs in the background and the review keeps working. #2106

Install / Update

macOS / Linux:

curl -fsSL https://plannotator.ai/install.sh | bash

Windows:

irm https://plannotator.ai/install.ps1 | iex

Claude Code Plugin: The plugin and the plannotator binary update separately, so run the install script above as well. In a terminal:

claude plugin marketplace update plannotator
claude plugin update plannotator@plannotator

Then restart Claude Code. Inside Claude Code, run /plugin marketplace update plannotator, then open /plugin → Installed → plannotator → Update now.

Pi:

pi update --extensions

OpenCode: Re-run the install script above. It now also clears the OpenCode 2 plugin cache.
