When there is no selection, make `cmd->` (`agent::addSelectionToThread`)
use the current line containing the cursor instead of doing nothing.
Supports both Zed Agent and Zed Assistant.
Works with multiple-cursors and a mix of selections and cursors.
Authored by Claude Opus 4.5, tested by me.
Release Notes:
- agent: Make `agent::addSelectionToThread` (`cmd->`) use the current
line of the cursor when there is no selection.

This PR adds a button in the `git: branch diff` view that allows to
quickly and easily send the entire diff to your last used agent for a
review. What this does is automatically submits a (pre-written and
generic) prompt to the last agents you were using in the agent panel
with the whole content of your diff.

- Removes the requirement for the terminal to be focused to use the
`cmd->` keybinding. This way, we match the behavior of buffer selections
and you can always add what's selected in the terminal inside the agent
panel
- Add number of lines selected in the mention button as well
- Make the "Selection" menu item inside the "Add Context" menu also
observe terminal selections

/>
Release Notes:
- Agent: Add number of liners selected in the terminal context mention
Summary
This PR adds the ability to quote terminal selections into Agent
threads, similar to how editor selections can be quoted. Users can now
select text in the terminal and add it as context to their agent
conversation.
### Features
- **Context menu**: Added "Add to Agent Thread" option to the terminal's
right-click menu (only shows when text is selected)
- **Keyboard shortcut**: The existing `cmd->` / `ctrl->` shortcut now
works in the terminal
- **Collapsed display**: Terminal output appears as a collapsed
"Terminal" crease in the chat, just like code references
- **Works with both thread types**: Supports both ACP-style threads
(Claude Code) and text threads
### Implementation
- Extended `quote_selection` handler to check for terminal panel focus
after checking for editor selections
- Terminal content is formatted as ` ```terminal` code blocks via new
`insert_terminal_crease` method
- Refactored crease insertion into `insert_crease_impl` helper to
support both code snippets (with `TextSnippet` icon) and terminal output
(with `Terminal` icon)
- Added automatic detection and folding of ` ```terminal` blocks in
`set_message` so terminal content stays collapsed in sent message
history
- Terminal creases use a trailing space instead of newline so cursor
behavior matches user expectations
### Demo
1. Select text in terminal
2. Right-click → "Add to Agent Thread" (or press `cmd->`)
3. Terminal content appears as collapsed "Terminal" block in chat
4. Send message - AI receives full terminal output, but chat history
shows it collapsed
### General note
I'm new to open source and the codebase in general so let me know if
anything should be different!
I tried to stay in line with other patterns I saw.
I didn't see a way to setup an end to end test with a real terminal so I
just added a unit test for the adding of the text to the chat, if it
exists and I missed it then I think the test coverage could be improved
with a test that uses a real terminal + running the command

Happy New Years! This PR is a second take at
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/38127 (cc @ConradIrwin)
This PR is significantly less complicated than the last attempt: while
we still keep our data on the `NavigationHistory` object, we no longer
tightly integrate it with the existing back/forward "browser history."
Instead, we keep our own stack of `(origin, target)` pairs (in a struct
to make it easy to extend with e.g., tag names in the future).
The PR is split into two separable commits. Most of the implementation
is in the second commit, which:
- Defines the stack data structure
- Implements `pane::GoToOlderTag` and `pane::GoToNewerTag` in terms of
the stack
- Hooks into `navigate_to_hover_links` to push tag stack entries
This last bit is the most fiddly. The core challenge is that we need to
keep track of the `origin` location and calculate the `target` location
across three codepaths that might involve creating a new editor and/or
splitting the pane. One thing in particular I found difficult was that
an editor's `nav_history` (an `ItemNavHistory`) seems to be populated
asynchronously. Instead of relying on it, I decided in this code to make
my own `ItemNavHistory`. I briefly tried to refactor the code in
question, but it seemed like it would significantly increase the scope
of the change.
I prefer this all-in-one tracking centered around
`navigate_to_hover_links ` to the `start/finish` approach taken in
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/commit/b69a2ea200561de9de0edf4d0c4428ee887fb918
because I find it easier to convince myself that the right data is being
populated at the right times. Of course, let me know if you think
there's a better solution.
Closes#14206

This PR adds the ability to favorite models for external agents—writing
to the settings in the `agent_servers` key—as well as a handful of other
improvements:
- Make the cycling keybinding `alt-enter` work for the inline assistant
as well as previous user messages
- Better organized the keybinding files removing some outdated
agent-related keybinding definitions
- Renamed the inline assistant key context to "InlineAssistant" as
"PromptEditor" is old and confusing
- Made the keybindings to rate an inline assistant response visible in
the thumbs up/down button's tooltip
- Created a unified component for the model selector tooltip given we
had 3 different places creating the same element
- Make the "Cycle Favorited Models" row in the tooltip visible only if
there is more than one favorite models
Release Notes:
- agent: External agents also now support the favoriting model feature,
which comes with a handy keybinding to cycle through the favorite list.
Follow up to #42982
Release Notes:
- agent: Allow pasting code without formatting via ctrl/cmd-shift-v.
- agent: Fixed an issue where pasting a single line of code would always
insert an @mention
Closes #ISSUE
Problem:
- The status bar’s pending keystroke indicator (shown next to --NORMAL--
in Vim mode) didn’t clear when focus moved to another context, e.g.
hitting g in the editor then clicking the Git panel. The keymap state
correctly canceled the prefix, but observers that render the indicator
never received a “pending input changed” notification, so the UI kept
showing stale prefixes until a new keystroke occurred.
Fix:
- The change introduces a `pending_input_changed_queued` flag and a new
helper `notify_pending_input_if_needed` which will flushes the queued
notification as soon as we have an App context. The
`pending_input_changed` now resets the flag after notifying subscribers.

Similar to how you can use `shift-tab` to cycle through profiles/modes,
you can now use `alt-tab` to cycle through the language models you have
favorited.

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/006d417d-5da1-48f9-82cc-ea06e28adb30"
/>
Release Notes:
- agent: Added the ability to cycle through favorited models using the
`alt-tab` keybinding.
This PR solves my main pain point with Zed agent: I have a long list of
available models from different providers, and I switch between a few of
them depending on the context and the project. In particular, I use the
same models from different providers depending on whether I'm working on
a personal project or at my day job. Since I only care about a few
models (none of which are in "recommended") that are scattered all over
the list, switching between them is bothersome, even using search.
This change adds a new option in `settings.json`
(`agent.favorite_models`) and the UI to manipulate it directly from the
list of available models. When any models are marked as favorites, they
appear in a dedicated section at the very top of the list. Each model
has a small icon button that appears on hover and allows to toggle
whether it's marked as favorite.
I implemented this on the UI level (i.e. there's no first-party
knowledge about favorite models in the agent itself; in theory it could
return favorite models as a group but it would make it harder to
implement bespoke UI for the favorite models section and it also
wouldn't work for text threads which don't use the ACP infrastructure).
The feature is only enabled for the native agent but disabled for
external agents because we can't easily map their model IDs to settings
and there could be weird collisions between them.

Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/31507
Release Notes:
- Added the ability to mark language models as favorites and pin them to
the top of the list. This feature is available in the native Zed agent
(including text threads and the inline assistant), but not in external
agents via ACP.

This PR adds back the footer with the "Configure" button in the model
selector but only when the seeing it from the Zed agent (or inline
assistant/text threads). I had removed it a while back because seeing
the "Configure" button, which takes you to the agent panel settings
view, when clicking from an external agent didn't make much sense, given
there's nothing model-wise you can configure from Zed (at least yet) for
an external agent.
This also makes the button in the footer a bit nicer by making it full
screen and displaying a keybinding, so that you can easily do the whole
"trigger model selector → go to settings view" all with the keyboard.

This PR introduces a new `MultiBufferOffset` new type wrapping size. The
goal of this is to make it clear at the type level when we are
interacting with offsets of a multi buffer versus offsets of a language
/ text buffer. This improves readability of things quite a bit by making
it clear what kind of offsets one is working with while also reducing
accidental bugs by using the wrong kin of offset for the wrong API.
This PR also uncovered two minor bugs due to that.
Does not yet introduce the MultiBufferPoint equivalent, that is for a
follow up PR.

Previously we had `Context` and `ContextStore` in both `agent_ui` (used
to store context for the inline assistant) and `assistant_context` (used
for text threads) which is confusing.
This PR makes it so that the `assistant_context` concepts are now called
`TextThread*`, the crate was renamed to `assistant_text_thread`
Release Notes:

Closes#39172
This refactors when we resolve UI keybindings in an effort to reduce
flickering whilst painting these: Previously, we would always resolve
these upon creating the binding. This could lead to cases where the
corresponding context was not yet available and no binding could be
resolved, even if the binding was then available on the next presented
frame. Following that, on the next rerender of whatever requested this
keybinding, the keybind for that context would then be found, we would
render that and then also win a layout shift in that process, as we went
from nothing rendered to something rendered between these frames.
With these changes, this now happens less often, because we only look
for the keybinding once the context can actually be resolved in the
window.

Also reduced cloning in the keymap editor in this process, since that
requiered changing due to this anyway.

This PR renames the `agent::QuoteSelection` to
`agent::AddSelectionToThread` _and_ adds it as a menu item in both the
right-click context menu within regular buffers as well as the
"Selection" app menu.
We've received feedback in the past about how hard to discover this
feature is, and after watching [the Syntax podcast
crew](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRK3PeVFfVE) recently struggle
with doing so—and then naturally looking for it in the context menu and
not finding it—it felt like time to push a change. I think the rename +
the availability in these places could help bringing it to surface more.
The same action can be done in Cursor through the `cmd-l` keybinding,
but in Zed, that triggers `editor::SelectLine`, which I don't want to
override by default. However, if you're using Cursor's keymap, then
`cmd-l` does trigger this action, as expected.

Release Notes:
- agent: Improves discoverability of the previously called "quote
selection" action—which allows to add a text selection in a buffer as
context within the agent panel—by renaming it to "add selection to
thread" and making it available from the right-click editor context menu
as well as the "Selection" app menu.
