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
Hi,
This PR fixes nothing. I just miss the option to open recent projects
quickly upon opening Zed, so I made this. Hope I can see it soon in
Preview channel.
If there is any suggestion, just comment. I will take it seriously.
Thank you!

Release Notes:
- Added a new value to the `restore_on_startup` setting called
`launchpad`. This value makes Zed open with a variant of the welcome
screen ("the launchpad") upon startup. Additionally, this same page
variant is now also what is displayed if you close all tabs in an
existing window that doesn't contain any folders open. The launchpad
page shows you up to 5 recent projects, making it easy to open something
you were working recently.

Partially addresses #11473
MVP of dev containers with the following capabilities:
- If in a project with `.devcontainer/devcontainer.json`, a pop-up
notification will ask if you want to open the project in a dev
container. This can be dismissed:
<img width="1478" height="1191" alt="Screenshot 2025-12-08 at 3 15
23 PM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ec2e20d6-28ec-4495-8f23-4c1d48a9ce78"
/>
- Similarly, if a `devcontainer.json` file is in the project, you can
open a devcontainer (or go the devcontainer.json file for further
editing) via the `open remote` modal:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/61f2fdaa-2808-4efc-994c-7b444a92c0b1
*Limitations*
This is a first release, and comes with some limitations:
- Zed extensions are not managed in `devcontainer.json` yet. They will
need to be installed either on host or in the container. Host +
Container sync their extensions, so there is not currently a concept of
what is installed in the container vs what is installed on host: they
come from the same list of manifests
- This implementation uses the [devcontainer
CLI](https://github.com/devcontainers/cli) for its control plane. Hence,
it does not yet support the `forwardPorts` directive. A single port can
be opened with `appPort`. See reference in docs
[here](https://github.com/devcontainers/cli/tree/main/example-usage#how-the-tool-examples-work)
- Editing devcontainer.json does not automatically cause the dev
container to be rebuilt. So if you add features, change images, etc, you
will need to `docker kill` the existing dev container before proceeding.
- Currently takes a hard dependency on `docker` being available in the
user's `PATH`.
Release Notes:
- Added ability to Open a project in a DevContainer, provided a
`.devcontainer/devcontainer.json` is present

This PR makes the `OpenProjectSettings` action open the settings UI in
project settings mode for the first visible worktree, instead of opening
the file. It also adds a `OpenProjectSettingsFile` action that maintains
the old behavior.
Finally, this PR partially fixes a bug where the settings UI won't load
project settings when the settings window is loaded before opening a
project/workspace. This happens because the global `app_state` isn't
correct in the `Subscription` that refreshes the available setting files
to open. The bug is still present in some cases, but it's out of scope
for this PR.
Release Notes:
- settings ui: Project Settings action now opens settings UI instead of
a file
Related discussions #26084
Worktree creations are implemented similar to how branch creations are
handled on the branch picker (the user types a new name that's not on
the list and a new entry option appears to create a new branch with that
name).
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/39e58983-740c-4a91-be88-57ef95aed85b
With this picker you have a few workflows:
- Open the picker and type the name of a branch that's checked out on an
existing worktree:
- Press enter to open the worktree on a new window
- Press ctrl-enter to open the worktree and replace the current window
- Open the picker and type the name of a new branch or an existing one
that's not checked out in another worktree:
- Press enter to create the worktree and open in a new window. If the
branch doesn't exists, we will create a new one based on the branch you
have currently checked out. If the branch does exists then we create a
worktree with that branch checked out.
- Press ctrl-enter to do everything on the previous point but instead,
replace the current window with the new worktre.
- Open the picker and type the name of a new branch or an existing one
that's not checked out in another worktree:
- If a default branch is detected on the repo, you can create a new
worktree based on that branch by pressing ctrl-enter or
ctrl-shift-enter. The first one will open a new window and the last one
will replace the current one.
Note: If you preffer to not use the system prompt for choosing a
directory, you can set `"use_system_path_prompts": false` in zed
settings.
Release Notes:
- Added git worktree picker to open a git worktree on a new window or
replace the current one
- Added git worktree creation action

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.
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.
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
This PR renames the following actions to make it easier and prioritize
the UI version of interacting with them:
| Before | After |
|--------|--------|
| `OpenSettingsEditor` | `OpenSettings` |
| `OpenSettings` | `OpenSettingsFile` |
| `OpenKeymapEditor` | `OpenKeymap` |
| `OpenKeymap` | `OpenKeymapFile` |
Release Notes:
- Rename actions to open settings (UI/window and JSON file) as well as
to open the keymap (editor tab and JSON file).
The feedback modal did not match our keyboard-driven design. We can
revisit this later if we want, but for now, removing it makes sense. All
actions have been inlined in the `Help` menu to maintain
discoverability.
Additionally, not all feedback-based actions in the command palette were
namespaced under `feedback:`, and now they are, so they can all be found
there easily.
Release Notes:
- Notice: The `Give Feedback` modal has been removed. The options to
file bug reports, feature requests, email us, and open the Zed
repository can now be found within the `Help` menu directly. The command
palette actions have undergone the following changes:
- `feedback: give feedback` (removed)
- `feedback: file bug report` (no change)
- `zed: request feature` → `feedback: request feature`
- `zed: email zed` → `feedback: email zed`
- `zed: open zed repo` → `contribute: open zed repo`
This PR removes the experimental jj bookmark picker that was added in

Closes #ISSUE
This PR continues work from #32821 by adding a stash entry picker for
pop/drop operations. Additionally, the stash pop action in the git panel
is now disabled when no stash entries exist, preventing error logs from
attempted pops on empty stashes.

Settings Profiles
- [X] Allow profiles to be defined, where each profile can be any of
Zed's settings
- [X] Autocompletion of all settings
- [X] Errors on invalid keys
- [X] Action brings up modal that shows user-defined profiles
- [X] Alphabetize profiles
- [X] Ability to filter down via keyboard, and navigate via arrow up and
down
- [X] Auto select Disabled option by default (first in list, after
alphabetizing user-defined profiles)
- [X] Automatically select active profile on next picker summoning
- [X] Persist settings until toggled off
- [X] Show live preview as you select from the profile picker
- [X] Tweaking a setting, while in a profile, updates the profile live
- [X] Make sure actions that live update Zed, such as `cmd-0`, `cmd-+`,
and `cmd--`, work while in a profile
- [X] Add a test to track state
Release Notes:
- Added the ability to configure settings profiles, via the "profiles"
key. Example:
```json
{
"profiles": {
"Streaming": {
"agent_font_size": 20,
"buffer_font_size": 20,
"theme": "One Light",
"ui_font_size": 20
}
}
}
```
To set a profile, use `settings profile selector: toggle`
"Settings" is the terminology we use in the agent panel, thus having the
action use "configuration" makes it harder for folks to find this either
via the command palette or the keybinding editor UI in case they'd like
to change it.
Release Notes:
- agent: Renamed the "open configuration" action to "open settings" for
better discoverability and consistency
This includes making sure that both the agent panel and Zed's edit
prediction have a consistent narrative when it comes to onboarding users
into the AI features, considering the possible different plans and
conditions (such as being signed in/out, account age, etc.)

Closes #ISSUE
Adds a new `documentation` method to actions, that is extracted from doc
comments when using the `actions!` or derive macros.
Additionally, this PR adds doc comments to as many action definitions in
Zed as possible.
Release Notes:
- N/A *or* Added/Fixed/Improved ...
Instead of a menagerie of macros for implementing `Action`, now there
are just two:
* `actions!(editor, [MoveLeft, MoveRight])`
* `#[derive(..., Action)]` with `#[action(namespace = editor)]`
In both contexts, `///` doc comments can be provided and will be used in
`JsonSchema`.
In both contexts, parameters can provided in `#[action(...)]`:
- `namespace = some_namespace` sets the namespace. In Zed this is
required.
- `name = "ActionName"` overrides the action's name. This must not
contain "::".
- `no_json` causes the `build` method to always error and
`action_json_schema` to return `None`
and allows actions not implement `serde::Serialize` and
`schemars::JsonSchema`.
- `no_register` skips registering the action. This is useful for
implementing the `Action` trait
while not supporting invocation by name or JSON deserialization.
- `deprecated_aliases = ["editor::SomeAction"]` specifies deprecated old
names for the action.
These action names should *not* correspond to any actions that are
registered. These old names
can then still be used to refer to invoke this action. In Zed, the
keymap JSON schema will
accept these old names and provide warnings.
- `deprecated = "Message about why this action is deprecation"`
specifies a deprecation message.
In Zed, the keymap JSON schema will cause this to be displayed as a
warning. This is a new feature.
Also makes the following changes since this seems like a good time to
make breaking changes:
* In `zed.rs` tests adds a test with an explicit list of namespaces. The
rationale for this is that there is otherwise no checking of `namespace
= ...` attributes.
* `Action::debug_name` renamed to `name_for_type`, since its only
difference with `name` was that it
* `Action::name` now returns `&'static str` instead of `&str` to match
the return of `name_for_type`. This makes the action trait more limited,
but the code was already assuming that `name_for_type` is the same as
`name`, and it requires `&'static`. So really this just makes the trait
harder to misuse.
* Various action reflection methods now use `&'static str` instead of
`SharedString`.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Cleaner to have references to this be `toast::RunAction` matching how it
appears in the keymap, instead of `workspace::RunAction`.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Open inspector with `dev: toggle inspector` from command palette or
`cmd-alt-i` on mac or `ctrl-alt-i` on linux.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/54c43034-d40b-414e-ba9b-190bed2e6d2f
* Picking of elements via the mouse, with scroll wheel to inspect
occluded elements.
* Temporary manipulation of the selected element.
* Layout info and JSON-based style manipulation for `Div`.
* Navigation to code that constructed the element.
Big thanks to @as-cii and @maxdeviant for sorting out how to implement
the core of an inspector.

Closes#27642
Currently, the `Open (cmd-o)` action is used to open a local folder
picker when in a local project, and Zed's remote path modal in the case
of a remote project. While this looks intentional, there is now no way
to open a local project when you are in a remote project window. Neither
by shortcut, nor by UI, as the "Open Local Folder" button uses the same
`Open` action.
The reverse is not true, as we already have an `Open Remote
(ctrl-cmd-o)` action to open the remote modal, where you can select "Add
Folder" which opens the same Zed's remote path modal. This already works
in both local and remote window cases.
This PR makes two changes:
1. It changes `Open (cmd-o)` action such that it should always open the
local file picker regardless of which project is currently open, local
or remote. This way we have two non-ambiguios actions `Open` and `Open
Remote`.
2. It also changes the "Open a project" button (which shows up when no
project is open in the project panel) to open the recent modal (which
contains buttons to open either local or remote) instead of choosing on
behalf of the user.
P.S. If we want to open Zed's remote path modal directly, it should be
different action altogether. Not covered for now.
Release Notes:
- Fixed issue where "Open local folder" was not opening folder picker
when connected to a remote host.
- Added `from_existing_connection` flag to `OpenRemote` action to
directly open path picker for current connection, bypassing the Remote
Projects modal.
This PR adds a new picker for viewing a list of jj bookmarks, like you
would with `jj bookmark list`.
This is an exploration around what it would look like to begin adding
some dedicated jj features to Zed.
This is behind the `jj-ui` feature flag.
Release Notes:
- N/A
@jyn514 mentioned that this would be nice to have while trying out zed,
and it seemed simple enough so I added it.
Release Notes:
- Added `OpenDocs` action to open Zed's docs in a browser, aliased to
`:h[elp]` in vim.
Closes #ISSUE
Release Notes:
- Agent Beta: Renamed the top-level `assistant` settings key to `agent`.
A migration for existing settings files is included.
- Agent Beta: Moved the `assistant::ToggleFocus`,
`assistant::ToggleModelSelector`, and `assistant::OpenRulesLibrary`
actions to the `agent` namespace. Existing keymaps that mention these
actions by their old names will continue to work.
