This PR changes the loading/generating indicator when in the "waiting
for tool call confirmation" state so that's a bit more visible and
discernible as needing your attention, as opposed to a regular
generating state.

Release Notes:
- agent: Improved the "waiting for confirmation" state visibility so
that you more rapidly know the agent is waiting for you to act.
Mostly just removing "thread" from all external agent menu items; I
think we can do without it and it already becomes much better/cleaner.
Release Notes:
- N/A
As discussed with @benbrandt and @mikayla-maki:
* We now tell ACP clients we support the nonstandard `terminal-auth`
`_meta` field for terminal-based authentication
* In the future, we anticipate ACP itself supporting *some* form of
terminal-based authentication, but that hasn't been designed yet or gone
through the RFD process
* For now, this unblocks terminal-based auth
Release Notes:
- Added experimental terminal-based authentication to ACP support
This has been possible in the inline assistant for ages now and maybe
you didn't know because we didn't say anything about it! This PR fixes
that by including that you can @-mention context on it the same you can
in the agent panel.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Making the profile management modal accessible through the agent panel
additional options menu as well. And in the process, adjusting the menu
keybinding that was getting conflicted with something else.
Release Notes:
- N/A
This PR makes the agent panel's configuration view use the icon from an
external agent that comes directly from the extension, as well as some
other clean ups.
Release Notes:

Noticed this whilst testing the Docker debugger. I randomly scrolled the
console off screen and was confused briefly as to why this was the case.
Release Notes:
- The debugger query console will no longer needlessly overscroll.
The button could not be clicked whenever the editor was currently not
focused. This PR fixes this and also registers the action on a more
global level, similar to how this is done for all the other agent
actions.
Release Notes:
- Fixed an issue where the `Expand message editor` button would not work
in agent threads if the message editor was not focused.
Escape special characters (&, <, >, ", ') in the title attribute of
TextThreadContext's XML output to prevent malformed XML when titles
contain these characters.
Resolves TODO at context.rs:629

This PR makes it clearer that you can click on the file path to open the
corresponding file in the agent panel's "edit bar", which is the element
that shows up in the panel as soon as agent-made edits happen.
Release Notes:
- agent panel: Improved the "go to file" affordance in the edit bar.
When we introduced the ACP-based agent panel, the condition that the
"review" | "reject" | "keep" buttons observed to be displayed got
mismatched between the panel and the pane (when in the single file
review scenario). In the panel, the buttons appear as soon as there are
changed buffers, whereas in the pane, they appear when response
generation is done.
I believe that making them appear at the same time, observing the same
condition, is the desired behavior. Thus, I think the panel behavior is
more correct, because there are loads of times where agent response
generation isn't technically done (e.g., when there's a command waiting
for permission to be run) but the _file edit_ has already been performed
and is in a good state to be already accepted or rejected.
So, this is what this PR is doing; effectively removing the "generating"
state from the agent diff, and switching to `EditorState::Reviewing`
when there are changed buffers.
Release Notes:
- Improved agent edit single file reviews by making the "reject" and
"accept" buttons appear at the same time.
Release Notes:
- N/A

Previously, agent markdown rendering used hardcoded font sizes
(TextSize::Default and TextSize::Small) which ignored the
agent_ui_font_size and agent_buffer_font_size settings. This updates the
markdown style to respect these settings.
This pull request adds support for customizing the font size of code
blocks in agent responses, making it possible to set a distinct font
size for code within the agent panel. The changes ensure that if the new
setting is not specified, the font size will fall back to the agent UI
font size, maintaining consistent appearance.
(I am a frontend developer without any Rust knowledge so this is
co-authored with Claude Code)
**Theme settings extension:**
* Added a new `agent_buffer_code_font_size` setting to
`ThemeSettingsContent`, `ThemeSettings`, and the default settings JSON,
allowing users to specify the font size for code blocks in agent
responses.

* Updated the VSCode import logic to recognize and import the new
`agent_buffer_code_font_size` setting.
**Font size application in agent UI:**
* Modified the agent UI rendering logic in `thread_view.rs` to use the
new `agent_buffer_code_font_size` for code blocks, and to fall back to
the agent UI font size if unset.

* Implemented a helper method in `ThemeSettings` to retrieve the code
block font size, with fallback logic to ensure a value is always used.
* Updated the settings application logic to propagate the new code block
font size setting throughout the theme system.

Currently Zed only displays agent notifications (e.g. when the agent
completes a task) if the user has switched apps and Zed is not in the
foreground. This adds PR supports the scenario where the agent finishes
a long-running task and the user is busy coding within Zed on something
else.
Releases Note:
- If agent notifications are turned on, they will now also be displayed
when the agent panel is hidden, in complement to them showing when the
Zed window is in the background.

Closes#41458
Dynamically position mode selector tooltip to prevent clipping.
Position tooltip on the right when panel is docked left, otherwise on
the left. This ensures the tooltip remains visible regardless of panel
position.
**Note:** The tooltip currently vertically aligns with the bottom of the
menu rather than individual items. Would be great if it can be aligned
with the option it explains. But this doesn't seem trivial to me to
implement and not sure if it's important enough atm?

Release Notes:
- Improved the agent panel's mode selector by preventing it to go
off-screen in case the panel is docked to the left.
Update the behavior of the `zed_actions::agent::AddSelectionToThread`
action so that, after the selecitons are added to the current thread,
the editor automatically scrolls to the cursor's position, fixing an
issue where the inserted selection's UI component could wrap the cursor
to the next line below, leaving it outside the viewable area.
Closes#39694
Release Notes:
- Improved the `agent: add selection to thread` action so as to
automatically scroll to the cursor's position after selections are
inserted
Closes#41125
Release Notes:
- Fixed `SwitchToHelixNormalMode` to keep selection
- Added default keybinds for `SwitchToHelixNormalMode` when in Helix
mode
This ensures the thread summary is treated as a tracked mention with
accessible context.
Changes:
- Fixed `MessageEditor::insert_thread_summary()` to use proper mention
URI format
- Added test coverage to verify the fix
Release Notes:
- Fixed an issue where "New From Summary" was not properly inserting
thread summaries as contextual mentions when creating new threads.
Thread summaries are now inserted as proper mention URIs.
This PR hides the worktree root name from the path prefix displayed when
you @-mention a file or directory in the agent panel. Given the tight UI
real state we have, I believe that having the project name in there is
redundant—the project you're in is already displayed in the title bar.
Not only it was the very first word you'd see after the file's name, but
it also made the path longer than it needs to. A bit of a design clean
up here :)
(PS: We still show the project name if there are more than one in the
same workspace.)
Release Notes:
- N/A
Symbol completions in the context picker now show "SymbolName
filename.txt L123" instead of just "SymbolName". This helps distinguish
between symbols with the same name in different files.
## Motivation
I noticed that the message prompt editor only showed symbol names
without any context, making it hard to use in large projects with many
symbols sharing the same name. The inline prompt editor already includes
file context for symbol completions, so I brought that same UX
improvement to the message prompt editor. I've decided to match the
highlighting style with directory completion entries from the message
editor.
## Changes
- Extract file name from both InProject and OutsideProject symbol
locations
- Add `build_symbol_label` helper to format labels with file context
- Update test expectation for new label format

Release Notes:
- Added file names and line numbers to symbol completions in the agent
panel
After #38882 we were always including file/directory mentions as
`zed:///agent/file?path=a/b/c.rs`.
However, for most resource links (files/directories/symbols/selections)
we want to use a common format, so that ACP servers don't have to
implement custom handling for parsing `ResourceLink`s coming from Zed.

Very often, when I'm testing or playing around with the zoom feature,
including the agent panel, I find myself missing one quick action that
would bring everything back to normal. That's what `ResetAllZoom` does.
If you have customized your zoom level in all areas of Zed, that action
returns everything to its default state. Similarly, if you're playing
around with zoom just in the agent panel, `ResetAgentZoom` does the same
in that context.
Release Notes:
- Added the `ResetAllZoom` and `ResetAgentZoom ` actions, allowing to
return the zoom level across the whole app and/or just in the agent
panel to its default/original value.
Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/41094
This PR adds the `agent_buffer_font_size` settings to be scaled in the
same proportion as the agent panel's UI font size, which was the only
setting that was being accounted for. This is something that I forgot to
do when we broke down the agent panel's font size controls into these
two values.
Release Notes:
- agent: Fixed an issue where the agent panel's buffer and UI font size
wouldn't scale proportionally.
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:
This PR fixes inconsistent use of trailing ellipsis (…) in the MCP
Server menu.

conventions used across Zed’s menus.

Release Notes:
- agent: Improved the editing previous messages UX by focusing in the
agent panel's message editor after regenerating a prompt, instead of
moving focus to the nearest regular buffer.
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.

requiered changing due to this anyway.

Before, each editor, even if it's the same buffer split in 2, was
querying for inlay hints separately, and storing the whole inlay hint
twice, in `Editor`'s `display_map` and its `inlay_hint_cache` fields.
Now, instead of `inlay_hint_cache`, each editor maintains a minimal set
of metadata (which area was queried by what task) instead, and all LSP
inlay hint data had been moved into `LspStore`, both local and remote
flavors store the data.
This allows Zed, as long as a buffer is open, to reuse the inlay hint
data similar to how document colors and code lens are now stored and
reused.
Unlike other reused LSP data, inlay hints data is the first one that's
possible to query by document ranges and previous version had issue with
caching and invalidating such ranges already queried for.
The new version re-approaches this by chunking the file into row ranges,
which are queried based on the editors' visible area.
Among the corresponding refactoring, one notable difference in inlays
display are multi buffers: buffers in them are not
[registered](https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specifications/lsp/3.17/specification/#textDocument_didOpen)
in the language server until a caret/selection is placed inside their
excerpts inside the multi buffer.
New inlays code does not query language servers for unregistered
buffers, as servers usually respond with empty responses or errors in
such cases.
Release Notes:
- Reworked inlay hints to be less error-prone

In practice this just hides the web search tool when not using the Zed
provider
Release Notes:
- Fixed an issue where the web search tool would show up in the profile
selector even when not using a model via Zed Pro
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.
In the process of adding pickers for the theme and icon themes fields in
the settings UI, I felt like there was an improvement opportunity in
regards to where some of these components are stored. The `ui_input`
crate originally was meant only for the text field-like component, which
couldn't be in the regular `ui` crate due to the dependency with
`editor`. Given we had also added the number field there—which is
similar in also having the same dependency—it made sense to think of
this crate more like a home for form-like components rather than for
only one component.
However, we were also storing some settings UI-specific stuff in that
crate, which didn't feel right. So I ended up creating a new directory
within the `settings_ui` for components and moved all the pickers and
the custom input field there. I think this makes it for a cleaner
structure.
Release Notes:
- settings_ui: Added the ability to search for theme and icon themes in
their respective fields.
We were spawning the process on the foreground thread before which can
block an arbitrary amount of time. Likewise we no longer block
deserialization on the terminal loading.
Release Notes:
- Improved startup time on systems with slow process spawning
capabilities
I love keybindings.
I spend way to much time thinking about them.
I also REALLY like working in Zed.
so far, however, I have found the key context system in Zed to be less
flexible than in VSCode.
the HUGE context that is available in VSCode helps you create
keybindings for very specific targeted scenarios.
the tree like structure of the Zed key context means you loose some
information as focus moves throughout the application.
For example, it is not currently possible to create a keybinding in the
editor that will only work when one of the Docks is open, or if a
specific dock is open.
this would be useful in implementing solutions to ideas like #24222
we already have an action for moving focus to the dock, and we have an
action for opening/closing the dock, but to my knowledge (very limited
lol) we cannot determine if that dock *is open* unless we are focused on
it.
I think it is possible to create a more flexible key binding system by
adding more context information to the higher up context ancestors.
while:
```
Workspace right_dock=GitPanel
Dock
GitPanel
Editor
```
may seem redundant, it actually communicates fundamentally different
information than:
```
Workspace right_dock=GitPanel
Pane
Editor
```
the first says "the GitPanel is in the right hand dock AND IT IS
FOCUSED",
while the second means "Focus is on the Editor, and the GitPanel just
happens to be open in the right hand dock"
This change adds a new set of identifiers to the `Workspace` key_context
that will indicate which docks are open and what is the specific panel
that is currently visible in that dock.
examples:
- `left_dock=ProjectPanel`
- `bottom_dock=TerminalPanel`
- `right_dock=GitPanel`
in my testing the following types of keybindings seem to be supported
with this change:
```jsonc
// match for any value of the identifier
"context": "Workspace && bottom_dock"
"context": "Workspace && !bottom_dock"
// match only a specific value to an identifier
"context": "Workspace && bottom_dock=TerminalPanel"
// match only in a child context if the ancestor workspace has the correct identifier
"context": "Workspace && !bottom_dock=DebugPanel > Editor"
```
some screen shots of the context matching in different circumstances:

the persistent_name values for `ProjectPanel` and `OutlinePanel` needed
to be updated to not have a space in them in order to pass the
`Identifier` check. all the other Panels already had names that did not
include spaces, so it just makes these conform with the other ones.
I think this is a great place to start with adding more context
identifiers and i think this type of additional information will make it
possible to create really dynamic keybindings!

Re-applies https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/30840
This PR re-applies the initial
[PR](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/30840). As it was closed
because it was hard to land, because of the many conflicts. This PR
re-applies the changes for it.
In several cases we were creating multiple display_map
snapshots within the same root-level function call.
Creating a display_map snapshot is quite slow, and in some
cases we were creating the snapshot multiple times.

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.
Release Notes:
- N/A
`MultiBuffer::anchor_in_excerpt` currently just wraps the given text
anchor in a multibuffer anchor. This allows one to get a multibuffer
anchor that points outside its excerpt which is basically never what one
wants. This PR now does a bounds check and returns `None` if the given
text anchor is not within the bounds of the excerpt.
