It was available in their preview release for about a month: https://zed.dev/releases/preview

The annoncement is about it reaching prod release, but they emailed people to try it out in the preview version.

i have and it's more of the same (unless i'm missing something). the fact that the entire thing is editable is weird to me. i really think they should just clone cursor's in this one case because they really nailed the UX with the checkpoint restoration

edit: yes i missed something. i see the new feature. hell yeah!

Its the opposite to me. I really liked that the AI panel was a fully featured text editor buffer like any other. The new agent panel makes it too much like "the rest" haha. I guess I'll get used to it over time. The important thing is that we finally have agentic editing which is extremely powerful ofc.

You can still access that one! Press the 3-dots menu in the upper right of the panel, and then choose "New Text Thread" instead of "New Thread".

Ah, that's still the old one - the whole thing is no longer editable in the new one we launched today. (You can still access the old one, but the new one is the default as of today.)

Check out the video in the blog post to see the new one in action!

yeah it's dope. i love the "follow agent" feature as well

In the new agent panel not everything is editable. Maybe give it another try.

I really miss the everything is editable panel, it felt like a superpower. There’s a bit of a learning curve, but after it’s amazing and everything else feels limited.

Off topic: Fully editable AI chat conversation should really be the norm.

Editing and deleting not only your messages but also the LLM's messages should be trivial.

One of the coolest things about LLM tech is that it's stateless, yet we leave that value on the floor when UIs act like it's not.

The old one is still available! :D

Press the 3-dots menu in the upper right of the panel, and then choose "New Text Thread" instead of "New Thread".
