CHANGELOG RELEASE_HISTORY_

✨ Enhancements

• Project Index Tools. Added 2 new tools to retrieve the project_index.md file. This file can be used by the model to get an overview of the project.
• Editor Context. Send filenames of all open tabs in the editor to the AI model.
• Zaguán Coder Daemon. Dug through a few open-source projects to figure out the best way to make gpt-5.3-codex work seamlessly. A huge thanks to these very smart and talented people building awesome tools.
• OpenAI integration. OpenAI GPT-5.3-Codex is now available in Zaguán Blade.
• Zaguán Coder Daemon. Tightened up the logic for Google Gemini 3.1 Pro. TTFT now 4-5x faster.
• Git Panel. Enhanced Git Panel to show a strikethrough for elements that are moved, renamed or deleted.
• Chat. Added visual feedback while waiting for the model to respond in the chat.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• GPT Codex. Fixed a bug where, sometimes, GPT Codex model would emit characters from other languages seemingly at random.
• GPT Codex. Fixed a bug where gpt-5.3-codex would stop after a few tool calls.
• Patching. Fixed a bug in apply_patch_to_string that would replace instead of add new content.
• Local AI. Fixed a bug in the Git commit generation for Local AI where it would fail. This was due to the message being routed wrong.
• Welcome screen. Fixed alignment issue on the Welcome screen.
• Paste image. Fixed a bug where pasting images from clipboard into chat didn't work.
• Tab focus. Active tab now always stays in focus while new tabs are opening.
• Git. Fixed a bug where the .zblade directory would be submitted to git.
• Chat. Fixed a bug where images attached to a message were being re-sent on every subsequent turn, causing context bloat.

✨ Enhancements

• Zaguán Coder Daemon. Added stronger detection for Google Gemini if it was unable to apply a patch to help it recover and try again instead of hanging.
• Zaguán Coder Daemon. Added a runtime guard to prevent AI models from inappropriately using shell commands (e.g., grep, cat) instead of dedicated tools, automatically guiding them to correct usage.
• Dependencies. Updated modules for frontend and backend.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Research Progress. Fixed an issue where research progress indicators (like "RUNNING_TOOLS") would remain stuck in a running state when a chat session ended or was stopped.
• Run Command. Fixed a bug in Zaguán Blade where a Run Command, when skipped, would still stay running.
• Run Command. Fixed a bug when the Stop button was pressed and a Run Command was running and would stay running.

✨ New Features

• Alpha Tag Removed. Removed the "alpha" tag as Zaguán Blade has reached a usable state.
• UI Redesign. Redesigned the whole application. It's now a lot more professional, calm and better structured.
• Settings. Added an About section in Settings.

✨ Enhancements

• Performance. Fixed memory leaks, optimized for better performance and cleaned up the code a little.
• Editor Performance. Significantly improved editor responsiveness by splitting context state and actions to eliminate unnecessary re-renders in hot-path components.
• Markdown Performance. Improved typing responsiveness in Markdown files by disabling expensive syntax features and skipping per-keystroke cursor synchronization.
• Google Gemini 3.1 Pro. Trying to make Google Gemini 3.1. Pro work better based on feedback and other OSS projects.
• Google Gemini. Updated our Google Gemini implementation in Zaguán Coder Daemon.
• MiniMax. Updated our MiniMax implementation for Fireworks in Zaguán Coder Daemon.
• Dependencies. Updated gix to v0.51.0.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Uncommitted changes. Fixed cumulative diff tracking to properly display changes for files edited multiple times.
• Fixed a bug in the global Accept All/Reject All that was wrongly removed.

✨ New Features

• Google Gemini 3.1 Pro. Added Google Gemini 3.1 Pro in Zaguán Coder Daemon.
• Chunk counting. Added chunk counting and display for write operations tool calls.
• Qwen3.5 support. Added support for Qwen3.5 models in Zaguán Coder Daemon.
• Claude Sonnet 4.6. Enabled Claude Sonnet 4.6 in Zaguán Coder Daemon. Restart application to access it.

✨ Enhancements

• Performance. Optimized streaming performance and conversation context synchronization.
• Frontend. Updated Vite to version 7.3.1.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Zaguán Coder Daemon provider fix. Fixed an issue where Anthropic-specific instructions were being sent to non-Anthropic providers.
• Fixed a bug when using Gemini 3.1 Pro where extra text would appear when using the run_command tool.
• Fixed a bug when run_command started a command without exit that blocked progress.
• Diff parsing. Fixed an issue where Diff parsing was only reading the first parsed patch block.
• Fixed a warning message that was too prominent.
• Fixed escaped characters showing up in the Blade Terminal.
• Fixed terminal crash with dead-key characters. Resolved UTF-8 unsafe slicing in sentinel parsing that caused crashes with multibyte characters (e.g., ~/dead-key sequences). ANSI stripping now preserves UTF-8 bytes correctly.
• Fixed a bug where the global Accept All/Accept All didn't hide if Accept changes on file was triggered.

✨ Enhancements

• When selecting a screenshot, added a half-second delay before capturing to allow time for UI elements (like window selection boxes) to disappear.
• Git performance. Replaced most external git calls with gix for faster, more efficient Git operations.
• Git Commit message. Now uses the full git commit message instead of just the first line.
• Local AI refactoring. Refactored Local AI so that it's separate from the main AI flow for easier maintenance.

✨ New Features

• Brand new App Icon. Redesigned app icon with a fresh, modern look.
• Git graph visualization. Implemented a Git graph of the 50 latest commits with a details popup for viewing commit information.
• Ollama Cloud support. Added support for Ollama Cloud. Requires an account at ollama.com.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fixed text disappearing or flickering when sending new messages after loading a conversation from history.
• Fixed scroll not going to bottom when loading an existing conversation from history.
• **CodeMirror "Ranges must be added sorted" crash.** Three extensions could add decorations in unsorted order causing CodeMirror to crash:
  • diffDecorations.ts — Sort was (from, to) but CodeMirror requires (from, startSide, to). Fixed by tracking startSide on each decoration and sorting by (from, startSide, to).
  • rainbowBrackets.ts — Visible ranges expanded to line boundaries could overlap, causing duplicate/unsorted bracket decorations. Fixed by tracking maxProcessed to skip already-processed positions and sorting all brackets before adding.
  • indentGuides.ts — Same overlapping visible ranges risk. Fixed with maxProcessed guard.
  • Chat UI. Fixed the chat and removed a lot of noisy cards.
  • New Chat Creation. Fixed a bug when creating a new chat where the model received no data at all.
  • Zaguán Coder Daemon. Removed artificial limitation on the number of turns models could do.
  • Chat UI. Fixed the chat and removed a lot of noisy cards.
  • New Chat Creation. Fixed a bug when creating a new chat where the model received no data at all.
  • Zaguán Coder Daemon. Removed artificial limitation on the number of turns models could do.
• Chat UI. Fixed the chat and removed a lot of noisy cards.
• New Chat Creation. Fixed a bug when creating a new chat where the model received no data at all.
• Zaguán Coder Daemon. Removed artificial limitation on the number of turns models could do.
• Chat becomes inert after UI reload. After a UI reload (e.g. crash recovery), the frontend's loading state was false even though the backend was still streaming. Added get_chat_status Tauri command that returns true if the backend is streaming. Frontend init() now calls get_chat_status and restores loading = true if the backend is still active. Files: chat.rs, lib.rs, useChat.ts
• Can't scroll to bottom after crash/reload. After reload, the scroll container starts at the top. The isUserAtBottomRef quickly becomes false from the scroll handler, so streaming auto-scroll stops working. Added an initial scroll-to-bottom effect that fires once when messages first load, ensuring the user sees the latest content and isUserAtBottomRef stays true for streaming auto-scroll. Files: ChatPanel.tsx
• Fixed the Blade Terminal echo bug when the model is using the run_command tool call.
• Fixed run_command tool calls in AI Chat appearing above already run (or failed) commands instead of below them.
• Fixed bug in the Ollama and Ollama Cloud implementation that resulted in errors.
• Diff view showing up on wrong lines. Fixed issue where diff view would appear on incorrect lines due to stale data in the editor. Added proper cleanup and state invalidation when editor content changes. Files: DiffView.tsx, EditorPane.tsx
• Model selector sluggishness. Reduced avoidable work in the compact selector by memoizing derived lists and selected model. Removed delayed/smooth scroll on open (which can feel laggy) and switched to requestAnimationFrame + instant nearest scroll. Files: CompactModelSelector.tsx
• History titles missing. Added a resilient fallback title strategy: use conversation.title if present, else use preview, else synthesize from last active timestamp (Conversation X ago). Files: HistoryTab.tsx
• Natural chat autoscroll + user can interrupt with wheel. Reworked autoscroll to use the real scroll container ref. Split behavior: scroll on new message if user is at bottom / just sent; during streaming, only keep following while user remains at bottom. This preserves manual scroll interruption. Files: ChatPanel.tsx
• Settings save feels slow. Changed save flow to close modal immediately, then persist in background. Keeps UI responsive while save + model refresh continue asynchronously. Files: SettingsModal.tsx
• General snappiness + launch flicker. Removed duplicate no-tab editor rendering path that could cause visual churn. Tightened startup flow to show window after first frame and fade out loading overlay immediately (no extra nested delays). Files: Layout.tsx, main.tsx
• Modernized title bar buttons. Updated window controls to compact rounded buttons with tighter spacing and better active feedback. Files: TitleBar.tsx
• Terminal too close to sidebar shadow. Increased left padding in terminal content area. Files: TerminalPane.tsx
• Fixed crash in read_file_range on out-of-bounds slice. Added bounds clamping to prevent panic when requesting lines beyond EOF (e.g., start_line: 350 on a 259-line file). Now returns safe empty output for extreme or inverted ranges instead of crashing.
• Fixed reasoning blocks being dropped during final answer transition. Changed filter logic to preserve reasoning blocks when clearing stale text content. Files: useChat.ts
• Fixed caret sync issues in Command Center textarea. Added shared autosize helper for consistent height updates and implemented explicit Shift+Enter newline insertion with proper caret position restoration. Files: CommandCenter.tsx
