New features
- Critique passes. Choose a reviewer under Settings → Critique pass when you want focused feedback on the active file. You can use the PhD Advisor, Copy Editor, Skeptic, or Fresh Eyes. You can also create a reviewer with your own prompt. See Comments and critique.
- Highlight AI-written text. Click the button in the top right of the editor to see which words came from accepted agent edits. When you type over a marked word, the word is no longer marked. See Review edits.
- Plan first feedback. Choose Direct edit when you want an edit immediately. Choose Plan first when you want an explanation before the edit. When you click AI smell, the agent explains its reason before it edits. See Selected text and directives.
- Pause the agent. Double-click the Agent pill to stop the current turn and prevent the agent from waking while you are idle. You also cannot send a new message until you resume the agent. See Control agent behavior.
- Accept or reject all edits. You can accept or reject every pending edit in a tab with one click. See Review edits.
- Freeze a passage. Select text and click Freeze for agent to prevent the agent from editing it until you unlock it. See Writing rules.
- Save examples with rules. You can add a passage that breaks a rule as an example for the agent. You can add the example yourself, or accept one that the agent proposes after you reject an edit. See Writing rules.
Updates
- Read an explanation before every edit. The agent now starts a comment thread before it proposes an edit. On the thread, the agent explains the planned change and its reason. See Comments and critique.
- Copy proposed text. You can select and copy green text without accepting the edit. You can also use a copy button on a proposed line or an edit row. See Review edits.
- The agent writes plainer prose. By default, the agent now uses long explanatory sentences, plain wording, and the voice of your document.
- More room on smaller screens. You can now use a 14 inch display without the agent pill covering the margin cards.
Bug fixes
- Answer several agent questions. You can now answer every question on a card before you submit it. In the prior version, submissions with several answers failed, and you could answer only the first question. See Send and steer requests.
- See failed runs. You now see a toast when a run fails, even when the history pane is collapsed. When authentication fails, you also see instructions for signing in again. See Provider errors.
- Keep old feedback hidden. After you remove a passage, the linked comment thread stays hidden when you type the same words elsewhere. If you undo the edit, the passage and linked thread return. See Comments and critique.
- Use the keyboard to select feedback. When you select text with Shift and the arrow keys, you can type feedback without another click. You now get the same behavior when you select text with a mouse. See Selected text and directives.
- Scroll while writing a rule. You can now scroll and click in the document while you write a rule. You can also close the rule editor without losing your unfinished draft.
