Send a specialist after one question and read its findings in full, without losing the conversation that asked. The work comes back as a change you can review, in the editor you were already in.

The form stores a draft and a saved value. The button ignores whether they differ.

Use the existing equality helper.

01 Work surface

Tool calls that look like work.

Goals and changes recorded in this chat stay above the composer. Existing workspace changes have a separate review. Read concise final answers, expand tool details, copy highlighted code, and review native editor diffs. Model and reasoning controls follow your selected route. Type / or $ anywhere in a draft to choose commands and skills; attach MCP reference text to a chat or goal without losing your work.

03 Current release

0.32.1 speaks typed protocol v14.

Native DGC plans, permission decisions, tools, and images are correlated with the CLI backend instead of reconstructed from terminal text. Goal evidence, lifecycle controls and prompt acknowledgements stay typed across routes. Selected skills, saved drafts and shared plan/review workflows keep work moving between terminal and editor. Vendor CLIs retain ownership of their internal tools and permissions.

Extension 0.32.1

Requires CLI 0.47.2; editor protocol v14.

A prompt beginning with an absolute path is sent normally and keeps the editor's live file context.
At narrow widths, model, reasoning, permission mode and context controls collapse to accessible icons while Settings remains available.
Model and thinking changes say whether they apply from the next native model request or the next delegated subscription turn.
An agent work page is read-only: its composer is disabled and image activity opens the same full image viewer as the main chat.
Large delegated batches wrap into stable rows of four agents so every worker is visible.
Typing /goal immediately removes the highlighted slash text and pins Goal inside the composer for that draft; it disappears with the message while goal progress stays in its own row.
