Just got a new Windows machine and realized that the rules library empty
state was completly busted. Ended up also adding some little UI tweaks
to make it better for both Windows and Linux.
Release Notes:
- N/A
- Added "ctrl-p" for selecting the previous menu item
- Added "ctrl-n" for selecting the next menu item
Closes#40619
Release Notes:
- Ctrl+P now moves to the previous result; Ctrl+N moves to the next.
Hello,
I am having a great time setting up the editor, but with a few problems
related to the Emacs keymap.
In this PR I have compiled changes in the default `emacs.json` that I
believe make the onboarding smoother for incoming emacs users.
This includes points that may need further discussion and some breaking
changes, although nothing that cannot be reverted with a quick
`keymap.json` overwrite.
(Please let me know if it is better to split up the PR)
### 1. Avoid fallbacks to the default keymap
all platforms:
- `ctrl-g` activating `go_to_line::Toggle` when there is nothing to
cancel
linux / windows:
- `ctrl-x` activating `editor::Cut` on the 1 second timeout
- `ctrl-p` activating `file_finder::Toggle` when the cursor is on the
first character of the buffer
- `ctrl-n` activating `workspace::NewFile` when the cursor is on the
last character of the buffer
### 2. Make all move commands operate on full words
In the current Zed implementation some commands run on full words and
others on subwords.
Although ultimately a matter of user preference, I think it is sensible
to use full words as the default, since that is what is shipped with
emacs.
### ~~3. Cancel selections after copy/cut commands~~ Moved to #40904
Canceling the selection is the default emacs behavior, but the way to
achieve it might need some brushing.
Currently I am using `workspace::SendKeystrokes` to copy ->
cancel(`ctrl-g`), but this has the following problems:
- can only be used in the main buffer (since `editor::Cancel` would
typically close secondary buffers)
- may cause problems downstream if the user overwrites the `ctrl-g`
binding
### ~~4. Replace killring with normal cut/paste commands~~ Moved to
#40905
Ideally Zed would support emacs-like killrings (#25270 and #22490).
However, I understand that making an emacs emulator is not a project
goal, and the Zed team should have a bunch of tasks with higher
priority.
By using a unified clipboard and standard cut/paste commands, we can
provide an experience that is closer to the out-of-the-box emacs
behavior (#33351) while also avoiding some pitfalls of the current
killring implementation (#28715).
### 5. Promote some bindings to workspace commands
- `alt-x` as `command_palette::Toggle`
- `ctrl-x b` and `ctrl-x ctrl-b` as `tab_switcher::Toggle`
---
Release Notes:
- emacs: Fixed a problem where keys would fallback to their default
keymap binding on certain conditions
- emacs: Changed `alt-f` and `alt-b` to operate on full words, as in the
emacs default
- emacs: `alt-x`, `ctrl-x b`, and `ctrl-x ctrl-b` are now Workspace
bindings
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.
Should be merged with
https://github.com/zed-industries/extensions/pull/3584, which adds
`slang-server` as a new language server, but should be disabled by
default due to an issue with it not initializing on Windows and being a
relatively new language server in general.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Adds a way to submit feedback about a zeta2 prediction from the
inspector. The telemetry event includes:
- project snapshot (git + unsaved buffer state)
- the full request and response
- user feedback kind and text
Release Notes:
- N/A
Following a conversation with the maintainer/owner of
kotlin-language-server, he recommended switching to the official
language server, which is better in many aspects and also more actively
maintained.
Release Notes:
- Made the official Kotlin Language Server the default language server
for Kotlin.
Changes that I made:
- add "scrollbar.thumb.active_background" to all themes
- for dark themes: scrollbar.thumb.background is darker than hover (fg4
from palette for background and fg0 for hover)
- for light themes: scrollbar.thumb.background is lighter than hover
(fg4 for background and fg0 for hover like in dark theme case)
Those changes is consistent with VSCode gruvbox theme and other
applications.
For active_background I chose orange color, but we can use cyan color to
match vscode theme.
UPDATE: decided to use blue for active scrollbar as this color is used
as accent in other parts of gruvbox themes
Release Notes:
- Improved scrollbar colors for Gruvbox theme

Closes#40608
This fixes tabbing in both the settings ui nav bar and page content
going off screen instead of scrolling the focused element into a visible
view.
The bug occurred because `gpui::list` and `gpui::uniform_list` only
render visible elements, preventing non visible elements in a view from
having their focus handle added to the element tree. Thus making the tab
stop map skip over those elements because they weren't present.
The fix for this is scrolling to reveal non visible elements and then
focus the selected element on the next frame.
Release Notes:
- settings ui: Auto scroll to reveal items in navigation bar and window
when tabbing

Closes#5294
This PR adds a line ending indicator to the status bar, hidden by
default as discussed in
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/5294.
### Changes
- 8b063a22d8700bed9c93989b9e0f6a064b2e86cf add the indicator and
`status_bar.line_endings_button` setting.
- ~~9926237b709dd4e25ce58d558fd385d63b405f3b changes
`status_bar.line_endings_button` from a boolean to an enum:~~
<details> <summary> show details </summary>
- `always` Always show line endings indicator.
- `non_native` Indicate when line endings do not match the current
platform.
- `lf_only` Indicate when using unix-style (LF) line endings only.
- `crlf_only` Indicate when using windows-style (CRLF) line endings
only.
- `never` Do not show line endings indicator.
I know this many options might be overdoing it, but I was torn between
the pleasant default of `non_native` and the simplicity of `lf_only` /
`crlf_only`.
My thinking was if one is developing on a project which exclusively uses
one line-ending style or the other, it would be nice to be able to
configure no-indicator-in-the-happy-case behavior regardless of the
platform zed is running on. But I'm not really familiar with any
projects that use exclusively CRLF line endings in practice. Is this a
scenario worth supporting or just something I dreamed up?
</details>
- 01174191e4cf337069e7a31b0f0432ae94c52515 rename the action context for
`line ending: Toggle` -> `line ending selector: Toggle`.
When running the action in the command palette with the old name I felt
surprised to be greeted with an additional menu, with the new name it
feels more predictable (plus now it matches
`language_selector::Toggle`!)
### Future work
Hidden status bar items still get padding, creating inconsistent spacing
(and it kind of stands out where I placed the line-endings button):
<img alt="the gap after the indicator is larger than for other buttons"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/24a346d4-3ff6-4f7f-bd87-64d453c2441a"
/>
I started a new follow-up PR to address that:
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/39992
Release Notes:
- Added line ending indicator to the status bar (disabled by default;
enabled by setting `status_bar.line_endings_button` to `true`)
Closes #ISSUE
Adds a `Maybe<T>` type to `settings_content`, that makes the distinction
between `null` and omitted settings values explicit. This unlocks a few
more settings in the settings UI

Continues the work from #35927 to add a git diff view for stash entries.
[Screencast From 2025-09-17
19-46-01.webm](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ded33782-adef-4696-8e34-3665911c09c7)
Stash entries are [represented as
commits](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-stash#_discussion) except they
have up to 3 parents:
```
.----W (this is the stash entry)
/ /|
-----H----I |
\|
U
```
Where `H` is the `HEAD` commit, `I` is a commit that records the state
of the index, and `U` is another commit that records untracked files
(when using `git stash -u`).
Given this, I modified the existing commit view struct to allow loading
stash and commits entries with git sha identifier so that we can get a
similar git diff view for both of them.
The stash diff is generated by comparing the stash commit with its
parent (`<commit>^` or `H` in the diagram) which generates the same diff
as doing `git stash show -p <stash entry>`. This *can* be
counter-intuitive since a user may expect the comparison to be made
between the stash commit and the current commit (`HEAD`), but given that
the default behavior in git cli is to compare with the stash parent, I
went for that approach.
Hoping to get some feedback from a Zed team member to see if they agree
with this approach.
Release Notes:
- Add git diff view for stash entries
- Add toolbar on git diff view for stash entries
- Prompt before executing a destructive stash action on diff view
- Fix commit view for merge commits (see #38289)
Though we ship with `basedpyright`, `ruff` and a few other laps for
python, we run them all at once.
Release Notes:
- Only enable `basedpyright` and `ruff` by default when opening Python
files. If you prefer one of the other.
Release Notes:
- Fixed misplaced comma in the autoclose description from:
"when you type (, Zed will ...)"
to
"when you type, (Zed will ...)"

Hello,
Thanks for the great work.
I am adding some more bindings for the emacs keymap:
- `command_palette::Toggle` as replacement for the emacs command
dispatcher
- other default aliases for existing move / delete commands
- e.g. `alt-left` to move to previous word and `alt-del` to delete it
- some missing `SelectTo` equivalents for move commands on selection
mode
Release Notes:
- Added bindings for the Emacs keymap
Closes#40334
This reverts the change made in #39983, and includes a replacement
migration that will transform formatter settings values consisting of
only `code_action` format steps into the previously deprecated
`code_actions_on_format` in an attempt to restore the behavior to what
it was before the migration that deprecated `code_actions_on_format`.
This PR will result in a modified order in the `code_actions_on_format`
setting if it existed, however the decision was made to explicitly
ignore this for now, as this PR is primarily targeting users who have
already had the deprecation migration run, and no longer have the
`code_actions_on_format` key
Release Notes:
- Fixed an issue with a settings migration that deprecated the
`code_actions_on_format` setting. The `code_actions_on_format` setting
has been un-deprecated, and affected users will have the bad migration
rolled back with an updated migration

`vim::Substitute` is a little different from the helix behavior, so this
PR adds helix versions. The most important difference (for my usage, at
least) is that if you're selecting whole lines then helix drops the `\n`
from the selection (much like vim's lines mode, except that helix bases
this behavior on the selection instead of having a different mode).
Release Notes:
- N/A
Closes#33637Closes#37332
and solves part of
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/discussions/33580#discussioncomment-14195506
This improves the "C" and "alt-C" actions to work like helix.
It also adds "," which removes all but the newest cursors. In helix the
one that's left would be the primary selection, but I don't think that
has an equivalent yet, so this simulates what would be the primary
selection if it was never cycled with "(" ")".
Release Notes:
- Improved multicursor creation and deletion in helix mode

Update the keybindings used in the default keymaps to better align with
VSCode's defaults, with the following changes:
* Windows & Linux
* `ctrl-enter` has been replaced by `ctrl-i` for
`assistant::InlineAssist`
* `ctrl-shift-space` maps to `editor::ShowSignatureHelp` instead of
`editor::ShowWordCompletions`
* MacOS
* `ctrl-enter` has been replaced by `cmd-i` for
`assistant::InlineAssist`
* `cmd-i` has been replaced by `cmd-shift-space` for
`editor::ShowSignatureHelp`
Closes#39278
Release Notes:
- Changed the keybinding for `assistant: inline assist` from
`ctrl-enter` to `ctrl-i` for both Linux and Windows, and `cmd-i` for
MacOS. If you'd like to restore the old behavior, update your keymap
file with:
```
{
"context": "!ContextEditor > Editor && mode == full",
"bindings": {
"ctrl-enter": "assistant::InlineAssist"
}
}
```
- Changed the action dispatched by `ctrl-shift-space` from
`editor::ShowWordCompletions` to `editor::ShowSignatureHelp` on both
Linux and Windows. If you'd like to restore the old behavior, update
your keymap file with:
``` {
"context": "Editor",
"bindings": {
"ctrl-shift-space": "editor::ShowWordCompletions"
}
}
```
- Changed the keybinding for `editor: show signature help` on MacOS from
`cmd-i` to `cmd-shift-space`. If you'd like to restore the old behavior,
update your keymap file with:
``` {
"context": "Editor",
"bindings": {
"cmd-i": "editor::ShowSignatureHelp"
}

- Add `skip_soft_wrap` field to both `AddSelectionAbove` and
`AddSelectionBelow` actions. When set to `true`, which is now
the default this will skip soft wrapped lines when extending the
selections.
- Move the `start_of_relative_buffer_row` function from the
`vim::motion` module to the `editor::display_map::DisplaySnapshot`
implementation as a method.
- Update the default behavior for both `editor: add selection above` and
`editor: add selection below` commands in order to skip over soft
wrapped lines by default, mirroring VS Code's default behavior.
- Update existing keymaps to specify this `skip_soft_wrap` value for
both `AddSelectionAbove` and `AddSelectionBelow` actions.
Closes#16979
Release Notes:
- Updated both the `editor: add selection above` and `editor: add
selection below` commands to ignore soft wrapped lines. If you wish to
restore the old behavior, add the following to your keymap file:
```
{
"context": "Editor",
"bindings": {
"cmd-alt-up": ["editor::AddSelectionAbove", { "skip_soft_wrap": false
}],
"cmd-alt-down": ["editor::AddSelectionBelow", { "skip_soft_wrap": false
}]
}

### What does this PR do?
- Adds default keybindings `gt` for navigating to the next tab and `gT`
for navigating to the previous tab in markdown viewer mode
### Why do we need this change?
- While previewing markdown files, the default vim bindings (`gt` and
`gT`) do not work for navigating between tabs. These bindings work
everywhere else, which provides a non-consistent experience for the
user.
### How do we do this change?
- Update the vim mode bindings to explicitly add handling for this mode

Follow up for: #39983 and
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/40040#issuecomment-3393902691
Previously it was possible to have formatting done using prettier or
language server using `"formatter": "auto"` and specify code actions to
apply on format using the `"code_actions_on_format"` setting. However,
post #39983 this is no longer possible due to the removal of the
`"code_actions_on_format"` setting. To rectify this regression, this PR
makes it so that the `"auto"` and `"language_server"` strings that were
previously only allowed as top level values on the `"formatter"` key,
are now allowed as format steps like so:
```json
{
"formatter": ["auto", "language_server"]
}
```
Therefore to replicate the previous behavior using `"auto"` and
`"code_actions_on_format"` you can use the following configuration:
```json
{
"formatter": [{"code_action": ...}, "auto"]
}
```
Release Notes:
- N/A *or* Added/Fixed/Improved ...
Release Notes:
- settings ui: Navigating the settings navbar with arrow keys up and
down now also activates the page, allowing users to more quickly see the

Closes #ISSUE
Release Notes:
- settings: Deprecated `code_actions_on_format` in favor of specifying
code actions to run on format inline in the `formatter` array.
Previously, you would configure code actions to run on format like this:
```json
{
"code_actions_on_format": {
"source.organizeImports": true,
"source.fixAll.eslint": true
}
}
```
This has been migrated to the new format:
```json
{
"formatter": [
{
"code_action": "source.organizeImports"
},
{
"code_action": "source.fixAll.eslint"
}
]
}
```
This change will be automatically migrated for you. If you had an
existing `formatter` setting, the code actions are prepended to your
formatter array (matching the existing behavior). This migration applies
to both global settings and language-specific settings
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).
- Update `AcpThreadView.insert_selections` to take into account whether
the user is currently editing an existing message and, if it is, insert
the selection into that message instead of the thread's message editor
- Update Window's default keymap to use the `agent::QuoteSelection`
action instead of the deprecated `assistant::QuoteSelection` action
- Introduce `AcpThreadView.active_editor` to allow callers to retrieve
either the thread view's message editor or the editor for the message
being edited, in case `AcpThreadView.editing_message` is not `None`
- Improve `AcpThreadView.focus_handle` to focus on the message being
currently edited in case the user navigates back to the editor and then
to the thread view again, all while editing a message
- Add tests for `AcpThreadView.insert_selections`, ensuring that the
selection is inserted in the message being currently edited, if a
message is being edited, or the thread view's message editor if no
message is being edited
Closes#39693
Release Notes:
- Improved `agent: quote selection` to also work for a message that was
already sent but is being edited

These changes refactor the whitespace handling logic for Vim's change
surrounds command (`cs`), making its behavior closely match
[tpope/vim-surround](https://github.com/tpope/vim-surround), following
[this
discussion](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/38169#issuecomment-3304129461).
Zed's current implementation has two main differences when compared to
[tpope/vim-surround](https://github.com/tpope/vim-surround):
- It only considers whether a single space should be added or removed,
instead of all the space that is between the surrounding character and
the content
- It only takes into consideration the new surrounding characters in
order to determine whether to add or remove that space
A review of
[tpope/vim-surround](https://github.com/tpope/vim-surround)'s behavior
reveals these rules for whitespace:
* Quote to Quote
* Whitespace is never changed
* Quote to Bracket
* If opening bracket, add one space
* If closing bracket, do not add space
* Bracket to Bracket
* If opening to opening, keep only one space
* If opening to closing, remove all space
* If closing to opening, add one space
* If closing to closing, do not change space
* Bracket to Quote
* If opening, remove all space
* If closing, preserve all space
Below is a table with examples for each scenario. A new test has also
been added to specifically check the scenarios outlined above,
`vim::surrounds::test::test_change_surrounds_vim`.
| Type | Before | Command | After |
|-------------------|-------------|---------|---------------|
| Quote → Quote | `' a '` | `cs'"` | `" a "` |
| Quote → Quote | `" a "` | `cs"'` | `' a '` |
| Quote → Bracket | `' a '` | `cs'{` | `{ a }` |
| Quote → Bracket | `' a '` | `cs'}` | `{ a }` |
| Bracket → Bracket | `[ a ]` | `cs[{` | `{ a }` |
| Bracket → Bracket | `[ a ]` | `cs[}` | `{a}` |
| Bracket → Bracket | `[ a ]` | `cs]{` | `{ a }` |
| Bracket → Bracket | `[ a ]` | `cs]}` | `{ a }` |
| Bracket → Quote | `[ a ]` | `cs['` | `'a'` |
| Bracket → Quote | `[ a ]` | `cs]'` | `' a '` |
These changes diverge from
[tpope/vim-surround](https://github.com/tpope/vim-surround) when
handling newlines. For example, with the following snippet:
```rust
fn test_surround() {
if 2 > 1 {
println!("place cursor here");
}
};
```
Placing the cursor inside the string and running any combination of
`cs{[`, `cs{]`, `cs}[`, or `cs}]` would previously remove newline
characters. With these changes, using commands like `cs}]` will now
preserve newlines.

- Improved Vim’s change surround command to closely match
[tpope/vim-surround](https://github.com/tpope/vim-surround) behavior.
