Features

AI

• Added sandboxing for the Agent's terminal and fetch tools. (#61711)
• Added a reasoning effort selector for Anthropic-compatible providers when the selected model supports adaptive thinking. (#61579)
• Added support for specifying the model used for context compaction with the agent.compaction_model setting. (#60012; thanks enoch-robinson)
• Added the agent_ui_font_family and agent_buffer_font_family settings for configuring the Agent Panel's UI and buffer fonts. (#59629; thanks lholden)
• Improved OpenAI Responses API requests by sending system messages through the instructions field. (#61370)
• Improved the edit_file tool's error messages for invalid parameters, helping models recover from failed edits. (#61662; thanks mfeyg)

Git

• Added a "Skip Hooks" toggle to the Commit button's menu in the Git Panel and commit modal, skipping the pre-commit and commit-msg hooks for the next commit. Also available as git: skip hooks. (#61529; thanks mauriciord and tdgroot for earlier implementations in #59846, #61416, and #47542)
• Improved Git Panel performance by avoiding redundant repository access checks. (#60503; thanks lgeiger)
• Improved the Git Panel's context menu and confirmation prompt for deleted files to say "Restore File" instead of "Discard Changes". (#61554; thanks levrik)

Vim / Helix

• Added the _ keybinding in Helix mode to trim whitespace from selections. (#55253; thanks jgarte)

Languages

• Improved Markdown preview links so links to Markdown files open a preview scrolled to the linked heading or position, with alt-click opening the raw source instead. (#61784)
• Improved support for language servers that dynamically register inlay hints, code lenses, or document symbols more than once. (#55340; thanks tautik)

Collaboration

• Improved call diagnostics with per-participant audio health history and exportable reports. (#61744)

Other

• Added support for undoing and redoing file operations in the Project Panel. (#61457)
• Improved input performance in large files. (#61523)
• Improved read-only tab controls to say "Tab" instead of "File" in tooltips and the tab context menu, clarifying that the toggle affects editability rather than filesystem permissions. (#61202; thanks saberoueslati)

Breaking Changes and Notices

• Changed the default base_keymap from VSCode to Zed. The VSCode base keymap is now a separate overlay that more closely matches VS Code's own keybindings, so anyone with base_keymap explicitly set to VSCode will see some bindings change, including the inline assistant moving to cmd-i (macOS) and ctrl-i (Linux/Windows), and f5 starting the debugger.
