Release notes

MCP Connect, unified Changes, and follow-ups

0.2.0-beta.40 · September 13, 2026

Remote MCP servers sign in through the system browser, agent edits live in one Changes home, and follow-ups queue above the composer.

New

  • Native MCP OAuth 2.1 Connect in chat and Settings → Integrations, with PKCE S256, token refresh, and Connect / Reconnect / Disconnect.
  • Mentioning a remote MCP server that needs sign-in pauses with a Connect card before the first model step.
  • Empty chat sessions include an inline API key paste field that detects your provider and picks a recommended model.

Fixed

  • After MCP Connect, follow-ups like “I authenticated” still load that server’s tools, and inspect reports callable mcp_<server>_<tool> names instead of telling you to refresh the client.

Improved

  • Follow-up messages queue as compact cards above the composer; ⌘Enter sends immediately by stopping the current run.
  • Unified agent edit review under a single Changes home across tabs, menus, palettes, and run recaps.
  • Run recap Changes opens the session's file changes even when Review mode is disabled.
  • Restoring from an agent checkpoint is labeled Continue across recovery cards and resume banners.
  • Streamable HTTP MCP responses parse both Server-Sent Events and JSON-RPC.
  • Greeting quick actions only show file-scoped chips when a file is open.
  • Maximized floating prompt bar displays labeled Queue and Steer buttons matching the chat composer.
