Features

AI

Added a max-width to the thread view for better readability, particularly when the panel is zoomed in. (#52730)
Bedrock: Added 9 new models across 3 new providers (NVIDIA, Z.AI) and expanded coverage for existing providers (Mistral, MiniMax). (#53043; thanks 5herlocked)
Added a setting to control reasoning_effort in custom OpenAI-compatible models. (#50582; thanks vimsucks)
Added keybindings for scrolling in agent view. (#52657; thanks hron)
Added new agent notification sound options. (#52284; thanks jm-observer)
Add padding to markdown output in card layout. (#53194; thanks markosnarinian)
Added a setting to control whether or not the button to resolve merge conflicts with the agent should be displayed. ((#53033))

Git

Added support for git checkpoint operations in remote/Dev Container sessions, restoring the "Restore from checkpoint" button in Agent threads. (#48896; thanks oliverbarnes)
Added support for diff.plus and diff.minus theme selectors in the diff syntax grammar. (#45459; thanks bcomnes)

Languages

Added the option for highlights from languages to specify fallbacks. That means that if you have a pattern with the captures @second.capture @first.capture, Zed will first try resolving a highlight from your theme for the code fragment using the first capture, then look for the second capture if no match for the first capture could be found. (#52575)
Improved syntax highlighting for custom jsx elements in TSX and JavaScript languages. Theme authors and users can now highlight these in their theme/theme overrides using tag.component.jsx. (#49881; thanks finico)

Collaboration

Added persistence to the Show Occupied Channels collab toggle. (#53029)

Other

Added "Focus Follows Mouse" for editor and terminal panes. (#46740; thanks jrobsonchase)
Added Ctrl+R keybinding for opening recent projects on macOS and Linux, matching VS Code's default behavior on all platforms. (#52893; thanks davidalecrim1)

Added options to pane::DeploySearch for keymap-driven search initiation. (#47331; thanks joelazar)
Added search support (Ctrl+F / Cmd+F) to the markdown preview. (#52502; thanks Tahinli)
Changed zed -n to only open a new window for folders that don't already exist as a workspace root in some window. If the appropriate window already exists, -n will activate it instead. (#53346)
Improved keyboard navigation for the recent projects modal. (#52866)
Improved the About Zed dialog to open as a standalone window instead of a native system prompt. (#52523; thanks dve00)

Git: Improved how we surface the affordance to resolve codebase-wide merge conflicts with the agent in the UI. (#53033)
