Release 0.35.0 · intitni/CopilotForXcode

This release focuses on the chat and modification features.

Chat

Note

Prompt caching for Anthropic through OpenRouter is not supported yet.

Added the new chat tab to replace the old one.

The old chat tab will not be automatically converted to the new one, so you need to manually start a new chat.
New chat UI that should be more readable.
New input field that comes with a context picker that allows you to better control the context of the chat.
- You can add context by clicking the + button and remove context by clicking the x button. You can also use the @ to add a context, the app will show the context list as you type.
- (Plus, free trial) Unlimited contexts.
Display the file name of code block if detected.
Added apply button to code block to apply the suggested code to selection or active document.

Note

This feature relies on the modification feature, so it doesn't work without a chat model yet.

Added create file button to code block to create a new file with the suggested code if the file doesn't exist yet.
Added run button to code block if the code block is a shell command or AppleScript.

Updated the copy button to draggable one so you can drag the button to the file tree to create a new file with the code block content.

Tip

Just in case you don't know, you can paste the code into the Xcode file tree to create a new file since Xcode 16.

(Plus, free trial) Send message to a specific agent using the @ symbol. But there is only one extra agent for now @casual.
(Plus, free trial) Send message without waiting for the response to complete.
The custom command will behave differently now. The extra system prompt will now be injected into the context as a topic. Topics will be put into the system prompt.
You can still use / to run a command.
Updated @sense scope behavior.
Updated @web scope to be RAG based.
Removed the scope settings from the host app. The settings are now in the context picker. You can click the added context to configure each context.
The custom system prompt will now be appended to the default system prompt. The default system prompt contains a bunch of rules about the response format, so you don't need to include those rules in the custom system prompt.

Updated prompt to make use of prompt caching from OpenAI and Anthropic.
The same new input field that comes with a context picker that allows you to better control the context of the modification.
Display modifications in full diff.
Updated the copy button to draggable one so you can drag the button to the file tree to create a new file with the code block content.

Added custom header field settings for OpenAI compatible models.
Added dimension settings for the embedding model.
Fix that the embedding feature doesn't work with models that has a different embedding dimension than the default one.
Fix that the web content retrieval always wait for the timeout.
