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.

We've been considering removing workspace-hack for a couple reasons:
- Lukas ran into a situation where its build script seemed to be causing
spurious rebuilds. This seems more likely to be a cargo bug than an
issue with workspace-hack itself (given that it has an empty build
script), but we don't necessarily want to take the time to hunt that
down right now.
- Marshall mentioned hakari interacts poorly with automated crate
updates (in our case provided by rennovate) because you'd need to have
`cargo hakari generate && cargo hakari manage-deps` after their changes
and we prefer to not have actions that make commits.
Currently removing workspace-hack causes our workspace to grow from
~1700 to ~2000 crates being built (depending on platform), which is
mainly a problem when you're building the whole workspace or running
tests across the the normal and remote binaries (which is where
feature-unification nets us the most sharing). It doesn't impact
incremental times noticeably when you're just iterating on `-p zed`, and
we'll hopefully get these savings back in the future when
rust-lang/cargo#14774 (which re-implements the functionality of hakari)
is finished.

things along the way.

This fixes an issue where we would not dismiss the panel once the user
toggled the setting, leaving them in an awkward state where closing the
panel would become hard.
Also takes care of one more check for the `Fix with assistant` action
and consolidates some of the `AgentSettings` and `DisableAiSetting`
checks into one method to make the code more readable.

When we refactored settings to not pass JSON blobs around, we ended up
needing
to write *a lot* of code that just merged things (like json merge used
to do).

This removes the `gemini-and-native` and `claude-code` feature flags.
Also, I removed a bunch of unused agent1 code that we do not need
anymore.
Initially I wanted to remove much more of the `agent` code, but noticed
some things that we need to figure out first:
- The inline assistant + context strip use `Thread`/`ContextStore`
directly
- We need some replacement for `ToolWorkingSet`, so we can access
available tools (as well as context server tools) in other places, e.g.
the agent configuration and the configure profile modal

This PR separates out the associated constant `KEY` from the `Settings`
trait into a new trait `SettingsKey`. This allows for the key trait to
be derived using attributes to specify the path so that the new
`SettingsUi` derive macro can use the same attributes to determine top
level settings paths thereby removing the need to duplicate the path in
both `Settings::KEY` and `#[settings_ui(path = "...")]`

Closes #ISSUE
Initially, the `SettingsUi` trait was tied to `Settings`, however, given
that the `Settings::FileContent` type (which may be the same as the type
that implements `Settings`) will be the type that more directly maps to
the JSON structure (and therefore have the documentation, correct field
names (or `serde` rename attributes), etc) it makes more sense to have
the deriving of `SettingsUi` occur on the `FileContent` type rather than
the `Settings` type.
In order for this to work a relatively important change had to be made
to the derive macro, that being that it now "unwraps" options into their
inner type, so a field with type `Option<Foo>` where `Foo: SettingsUi`
will treat the field as if it were just `Foo`, expecting there to be a
default set in `default.json`. This imposes some restrictions on what
`Settings::FileContent` can be as seen in 1e19398 where `FileContent`
itself can't be optional without manually implementing `SettingsUi`, as
well as introducing some risk that if the `FileContent` type has
`serde(default)`, the default value will override the default value from
`default.json` in the UI even though it may differ (but it should!).
A future PR should probably replace the other settings with `FileContent
= Option<T>` (all of which currently have `T == bool`) with wrapper
structs and have `KEY = None` so the further niceties
`derive(SettingsUi)` will provide such as path renaming, custom UI, auto
naming and doc comment extraction can be used.

- N/A *or* Added/Fixed/Improved ...
After setting a `grok` model via the agent panel, the settings complains

## Goal
This PR creates the initial settings ui structure with the primary goal
of making a settings UI that is
- Comprehensive: All settings are available through the UI
- Correct: Easy to understand the underlying JSON file from the UI
- Intuitive
- Easy to implement per setting so that UI is not a hindrance to future
settings changes
### Structure
The overall structure is settings layer -> data layer -> ui layer.
The settings layer is the pre-existing settings definitions, that
implement the `Settings` trait. The data layer is constructed from
settings primarily through the `SettingsUi` trait, and it's associated
derive macro. The data layer tracks the grouping of the settings, the
json path of the settings, and a data representation of how to render
the controls for the setting in the UI, that is either a marker value
for the component to use (avoiding a dependency on the `ui` crate) or a
custom render function.
Abstracting the data layer from the ui layer allows crates depending on
`settings` to implement their own UI without having to add additional UI
dependencies, thus avoiding circular dependencies. In cases where custom
UI is desired, and a creating a custom render function in the same crate
is infeasible due to circular dependencies, the current solution is to
implement a marker for the component in the `settings` crate, and then
handle the rendering of that component in `settings_ui`.
### Foundation
This PR creates a macro and a trait both called `SettingsUi`. The
`SettingsUi` trait is added as a new trait bound on the `Settings`
trait, this allows the type system to guarantee that all settings
implement UI functionality. The macro is used to derived the trait for
most types, and can be modified through attributes for unique cases as
well.
A derive-macro is used to generate the settings UI trait impl, allowing
it the UI generation to be generated from the static information in our
code base (`default.json`, Struct/Enum names, field names, `serde`
attributes, etc). This allows the UI to be auto-generated for the most
part, and ensures consistency across the UI.
#### Immediate Follow ups
- Add a new `SettingsPath` trait that will be a trait bound on
`SettingsUi` and `Settings`
- This trait will replace the `Settings::key` value to enable
`SettingsUi` to infer the json path of it's derived type
- Figure out how to render `Option<T> where T: SettingsUi` correctly
- Handle `serde` attributes in the `SettingsUi` proc macro to correctly
get json path from a type's field and identity

Now `always_allow_tool_actions` is only respected as the user's global
setting, not as an overridable project-local setting. This way, you
don't have to worry about switching into a project (or switching
branches within a project) and discovering that suddenly your tool calls
no longer require confirmation.

- Removed always_allow_tool_actions from project-local settings (it is
now global-only)

This was causing text thread summarization to be counted as a usage of 1
prompt
Release Notes:
- Fixed bug with agent text threads (not chat threads) counting
summarization as a usage of 1 prompt.
Co-authored-by: Oleksiy <oleksiy@zed.dev>
When `use_modifier_to_send` is turned on, holding `cmd`/`ctrl` is
necessary to send a message in the agent panel. Text threads already use
`cmd-enter` by default to submit a message, and it was done this way to
have the usual text editing bindings not taken over when writing a
prompt, sort of stimulating more thoughtful writing. While `enter` to
send is still somewhat a huge pattern in chat-like LLM UIs, it still
makes sense to allow this for the new agent panel... hence the existence
of this setting now!
Release Notes:
- agent: Added the `use_modifier_to_send` setting, which makes holding a
modifier (`cmd`/`ctrl`), together with `enter`, required to send a new
message.
Similar to https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/34040, this PR
allows to control via settings whether the terminal card in the agent
panel should be expanded. It is set to true by default.
Release Notes:
- agent: Added a setting to control whether terminal cards are expanded
in the agent panel, thus showing or hiding the full command output.
This PR adds the `expand_edit_card` setting, which controls whether edit
cards in the agent panel are expanded, thus showing or not the full diff
of a given file's AI-driven change. I personally prefer to have these
cards collapsed by default as I am mostly reviewing diffs using either
the review multibuffer or the diffs within the file's buffer itself.
Didn't want to change the default behavior as that was intentionally
chosen, so here we are! :)
Open to feedback about the setting name; I've iterated between a few
options and don't necessarily feel like the current one is the best.
Release Notes:
- agent: Added a setting to control whether edit cards are expanded in
the agent panel, thus showing or hiding the full diff of a file's
changes.
Closes#30017
* While generating the settings JSON schema, defaults all schema
definitions to reject unknown fields via `additionalProperties: false`.
* Uses `unevaluatedProperties: false` at the top level to check fields
that remain after the settings field names + release stage override
field names.
* Changes json schema version from `draft07` to `draft_2019_09` to have
support for `unevaluatedProperties`.
Release Notes:
- Added warnings for unknown fields when editing `settings.json`.
The major change in schemars 1.0 is that now schemas are represented as
plain json values instead of specialized datatypes. This allows for more
concise construction and manipulation.
This change also improves how settings schemas are generated. Each top
level settings type was being generated as a full root schema including
the definitions it references, and then these were merged. This meant
generating all shared definitions multiple times, and might have bugs in
cases where there are two types with the same names.
Now instead the schemar generator's `definitions` are built up as they
normally are and the `Settings` trait no longer has a special
`json_schema` method. To handle types that have schema that vary at
runtime (`FontFamilyName`, `ThemeName`, etc), values of
`ParameterizedJsonSchema` are collected by `inventory`, and the schema
definitions for these types are replaced.
To help check that this doesn't break anything, I tried to minimize the
overall [schema
diff](https://gist.github.com/mgsloan/1de549def20399d6f37943a3c1583ee7)
with some patches to make the order more consistent + schemas also
sorted with `jq -S .`. A skim of the diff shows that the diffs come
from:
* `enum: ["value"]` turning into `const: "value"`
* Differences in handling of newlines for "description"
* Schemas for generic types no longer including the parameter name, now
all disambiguation is with numeric suffixes
* Enums now using `oneOf` instead of `anyOf`.

This cleans up our settings to not include any `version` fields, as we
have an actual settings migrator now.
This PR removes `language_models > anthropic > version`,
`language_models > openai > version` and `agent > version`.
We had migration paths in the code for a long time, so in practice
almost everyone should be using the latest version of these settings.
Release Notes:
- Remove `version` fields in settings for `agent`, `language_models >
anthropic`, `language_models > openai`. Your settings will automatically
be migrated. If you're running into issues with this open an issue
[here](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues)
Follow up to previous PRs:
- Return `true` in `supports_images` - v0 supports images already
- Rename model id to match the exact version of the model `v0-1.5-md`
(For now we do not expose `sm`/`lg` variants since they seem not to be
available via the API)
- Provide autocompletion in settings for using `vercel` as a `provider`
Release Notes:
- N/A
This allows storing the profile per thread, as well as moving the logic
of which tools are enabled or not to the profile itself.
This makes it much easier to switch between profiles, means there is
less global state being changed on every profile change.

This pull request adds full integration with OpenRouter, allowing users
to access a wide variety of language models through a single API key.
**Implementation Details:**
* **Provider Registration:** Registers OpenRouter as a new language
model provider within the application's model registry. This includes UI
for API key authentication, token counting, streaming completions, and
tool-call handling.
* **Dedicated Crate:** Adds a new `open_router` crate to manage
interactions with the OpenRouter HTTP API, including model discovery and
streaming helpers.
* **UI & Configuration:** Extends workspace manifests, the settings
schema, icons, and default configurations to surface the OpenRouter
provider and its settings within the UI.
* **Readability:** Reformats JSON arrays within the settings files for
improved readability.
**Design Decisions & Discussion Points:**
* **Code Reuse:** I leveraged much of the existing logic from the
`openai` provider integration due to the significant similarities
between the OpenAI and OpenRouter API specifications.
* **Default Model:** I set the default model to `openrouter/auto`. This
model automatically routes user prompts to the most suitable underlying
model on OpenRouter, providing a convenient starting point.
* **Model Population Strategy:**
* <strike>I've implemented dynamic population of available models by
querying the OpenRouter API upon initialization.
* Currently, this involves three separate API calls: one for all models,
one for tool-use models, and one for models good at programming.
* The data from the tool-use API call sets a `tool_use` flag for
relevant models.
* The data from the programming models API call is used to sort the
list, prioritizing coding-focused models in the dropdown.</strike>
* <strike>**Feedback Welcome:** I acknowledge this multi-call approach
is API-intensive. I am open to feedback and alternative implementation
suggestions if the team believes this can be optimized.</strike>
* **Update: Now this has been simplified to one api call.**
* **UI/UX Considerations:**
* <strike>Authentication Method: Currently, I've implemented the
standard API key input in settings, similar to other providers like
OpenAI/Anthropic. However, OpenRouter also supports OAuth 2.0 with PKCE.
This could offer a potentially smoother, more integrated setup
experience for users (e.g., clicking a button to authorize instead of
copy-pasting a key). Should we prioritize implementing OAuth PKCE now,
or perhaps add it as an alternative option later?</strike>(PKCE is not
straight forward and complicated so skipping this for now. So that we
can add the support and work on this later.)
* <strike>To visually distinguish models better suited for programming,
I've considered adding a marker (e.g., `</>` or `🧠`) next to their
names. Thoughts on this proposal?</strike>. (This will require a changes
and discussion across model provider. This doesn't fall under the scope
of current PR).
* OpenRouter offers 300+ models. The current implementation loads all of
them. **Feedback Needed:** Should we refine this list or implement more
sophisticated filtering/categorization for better usability?
**Motivation:**
This integration directly addresses one of the most highly upvoted
feature requests/discussions within the Zed community. Adding OpenRouter
support significantly expands the range of AI models accessible to
users.
I welcome feedback from the Zed team on this implementation and the
design choices made. I am eager to refine this feature and make it
available to users.

This PR updates how we handle Ollama responses, leveraging the new
[v0.9.0](https://github.com/ollama/ollama/releases/tag/v0.9.0) release.
Previously, thinking text was embedded within the model's main content,
leading to it appearing directly in the agent's response. Now, thinking
content is provided as a separate parameter, allowing us to display it
correctly within the agent panel, similar to other providers. I have
tested this with qwen3:8b and works nicely. ~~We can release this once
the ollama is release is stable.~~ It's released now as stable.

https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/31668 renamed
`CompletionMode::Max` to `CompletionMode::Burn` which is a good change,
but this broke the deserialization for threads whose completion mode was
stored in LMDB. This adds a deserialization alias so that both values
work.
We could make a full new `SerializedThread` version which migrates this
value, but that seems overkill for this single change, we can batch that
with more changes later. Also, people in nightly already have some v1
threads with `burn` stored, so it wouldn't quite work for everybody.
Release Notes:

Follow up to https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/31470.
I started looking at config and changed preferred_completion_mode to
burn to only find its max so made changes to align it better with
rebrand. As this is in preview build now.
This doesn't touch zed_llm_client. Only the Zed changes the code and doc
to match the new UI of burn mode. There are still more things to be
renamed, though.
