Removes the feature flag. The RFD is in Preview and I am confident it
will be stable without major changes by the time this hits Zed Stable.
Release Notes:
- acp: Allow ACP agents to use Elicitation capturing structure user
input.
Removing the feature flag now that the API is stable.
Release Notes:
- acp: Support boolean toggles for ACP session configuration in agents
that use them.

This separates the two user-message identities we currently need in
agent threads:
- `protocol_id`: the ACP `messageId` used to group or split streamed
message chunks from ACP agents.
- `client_id`: the Zed-generated user message ID used by the native
agent for truncate, rewind, edit/regenerate, checkpoints, token usage,
and persistence.
The main behavior change is that ACP protocol message IDs now affect
message merging/rendering without leaking Zed-native client IDs into ACP
agents by default. Agents that can accept Zed-generated user message IDs
opt into that path through `AgentSessionClientUserMessageIds`, which
owns both ID generation and prompt submission. The native Zed agent
implements that capability; normal ACP agents continue through the
protocol-only `prompt` path.
In ACP v2 we'll have a mechanism for getting user message replays that
will allow the agent to adequately generate it's own opaque id that we
can then use for these other capabilities. But for now, this split at
least makes sure we keep the two concepts distinct.

support it.
Brings stable logout and additional directories support as well as
removing dep on rmcp + tokio
This also removed the unstable model selector (replaced awhile ago by
session config options) so it removes all of that code.
Native agent still uses it because we have a special model selector that
would need more work to rip out

Refactor to isolate alacritty types into the terminal crate and offers

Adds the flat context compaction marker data model and replays persisted

compacted thread boundaries deserialize, render, and export to Markdown
without enabling automatic compaction behavior yet.
Release Notes:
- Improved agent threads to show restored context compaction dividers in
conversations
Matches behavior from selectors between Zed + external agents.
Also means they will persist across worktree creation 🎉

In the interactive MCP OAuth flow, the MCP client registers itself with
the authorization in one of three ways:
- Client ID Metadata Document aka CIMD (recommended default). This is
already implemented: https://zed.dev/oauth/client-metadata.json.
- Dynamic Client Registration (DCR). This is the traditional method.
Also already implemented in Zed.
- Pre-registration: the client is registered out of band, typically in
the IdP or SaaS provider's UI. You get a client id and maybe a client
secret, that have to be provided by the MCP client when it wants to
exchange an access token. This is what this pull request is about.
This PR has two main parts:
- Allow users to configure a client id and optional client secret for an
MCP server in their configuration, under a new `oauth` key, and take it
into account
- Make the MCP server state and the configuration modal aware of the
intermediate states (client secret missing) and error cases stemming
from client pre-registration.
The client secret can be stored either in the system keychain or in
plain text in the MCP server configuration. The UI tries to steer user
towards the more secure option: the keychain.

**Note for the reviewer: I know how busy the AI team is at the moment so
please treat this as low priority, we don't have signal that this is a
highly desired feature. It's a rather large PR, so I'm happy to pair
review / walk through it.**
Release Notes:
- Added support for OAuth client pre-registration (client id, client
secret) to the built-in MCP client.
Still behind a feature flag for now for testing with various agents.

Closes#46551
Zed was using the `terminal.shell` setting for some actions unrelated to
the terminal GUI, like environment capture, ACP agent startup, context
server startup, and vim `:!`, and so if a user set it to `tmux` or
`nushell`, those paths would fail.
This PR ensures paths unrelated to Zed's terminal use the system path
instead.
Manual testing:
Set `terminal.shell` to `tmux` or any another non-bash executable.
Starting an external agent thread shouldn't break.
Release Notes:
- Fixed ACP agent and other breakage when `terminal.shell` was set to a
non-shell program like `tmux`

Closes #ISSUE
Release Notes:
- N/A
The `user_message_id` parameter on `AgentConnection::prompt` was
`Option<UserMessageId>`, but `NativeAgentConnection::prompt` immediately
called `.expect()` on it, crashing when the value was `None`.
Because the `expect` message said `UserMessageId` was required, this PR
makes the parameter not optional which makes the panic impossible.
This means we also need to unconditionally generate an ID in `send`,
where before we gated this on whether `truncate` returned `Some`.
Generating IDs unconditionally should be find, especially because the
prompt requires them.
Release Notes:

We were incorrectly wrapping new terminal auth methods in double ssh

where it was needed.

- `language_model` no longer depends on provider-specific crates such as
`anthropic` and `open_ai` (inverted dependency)
- `language_model_core` was extracted from `language_model` which
contains the types for the provider-specific crates to convert to/from.
- `gpui::SharedString` has been extracted into its own crate (still
exposed by `gpui`), so `language_model_core` and provider API crates
don't have to depend on `gpui`.
- Removes some unnecessary `&'static str` | `SharedString` -> `String`
-> `SharedString` conversions across the codebase.
- Extracts the core logic of the cloud `LanguageModelProvider` into its
own crate with simpler dependencies.

This PR decouples `language_model`'s dependence on Zed-specific
implementation details. In particular
* `credentials_provider` is split into a generic `credentials_provider`
crate that provides a trait, and `zed_credentials_provider` that
implements the said trait for Zed-specific providers and has functions
that can populate a global state with them
* `zed_env_vars` is split into a generic `env_var` crate that provides
generic tooling for managing env vars, and `zed_env_vars` that contains
Zed-specific statics
* `client` is now dependent on `language_model` and not vice versa

We can't add a current_dir when in remote scenarios in the same place,

Follow-up to the terminal permission params refactor, addressing
@benbrandt's [review
feedback](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/51782#pullrequestreview-2926899804)
about string formatting leaking into the UI layer.
## Changes
### Outcome construction moved to acp_thread
- Added `PermissionOptionChoice::build_outcome(is_allow)` — builds a
`SelectedPermissionOutcome` from a choice, attaching
`SelectedPermissionParams::Terminal` when the choice carries
`sub_patterns`.
- Added
`PermissionOptions::build_outcome_for_checked_patterns(checked_indices,
is_allow)` — handles the `DropdownWithPatterns` per-command checklist
flow, returning `None` when zero patterns are checked (degrading to
once).
The UI's `authorize_with_granularity` no longer does any
`format!("always_allow:{}",...)` string formatting or
`SelectedPermissionParams` construction.
### `option_kind` folded into `SelectedPermissionOutcome`
`SelectedPermissionOutcome` now carries `option_kind:
acp::PermissionOptionKind`, eliminating the separate parameter that was
threaded through the entire `authorize_tool_call` chain:
```
ThreadView::authorize_tool_call
→ Conversation::authorize_tool_call
→ AcpThread::authorize_tool_call
```
Every signature in this chain dropped one parameter.
### `SelectedPermissionParams` removed from UI imports
The type is now only referenced by `acp_thread` (construction) and
`agent` (consumption). The UI passes `SelectedPermissionOutcome`
opaquely.
Release Notes:
- N/A
## Context
If you went back and edited the first message, we were resetting the
provisional title, even though the title had previously already been set
from a summarization pass.
In order to achieve this, we moved the default thread title logic up the
UI layer, and allowed AcpThreads to have an optional title.

## Summary
Adds a new permission UI for terminal pipeline commands (e.g. `cargo
test | tail`) that lets users selectively always-allow individual
commands in the pipeline, rather than only offering a blanket
always-allow for the first command.

## Context
Add Project::default_path_list and reuse it for agent session work
directories and ACP server startup so agent processes start in the
project context by default
We previously removed all cwd from this hoping to have a global process
shared, but it doesn't work for remote projects. Since we're at the
project boundary anyway, we might as well start it up in a similar spot
as a new thread.

#### Fixes#51082
#### Description :
When a user configures `default_config_options` (e.g. a specific model)
for an ACP agent, the setting was only applied when creating a new
session. Resuming or loading an existing session (e.g. from history)
skipped this step, causing the model dropdown to revert to "Default
(recommended)".
#### Fix :
Extract the config options defaulting logic into a shared helper
apply_default_config_options and call it consistently across all three
session entry points: new_session, resume_session, and load_session
Release Notes:
#### Release notes :
Fixed model dropdown resetting to "Default (recommended)" when opening a
previous conversation from history. Configured models (via
default_config_options) are now correctly applied when resuming or
loading existing sessions.
