🆕 What's New in 0.1.3
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed: Backend/frontend settings sync for all checkboxes
New Features:
- Added terminal protection setting with confirmation dialog (defaults to true)
Improvements:
- UI now uses unique IDs and settings keys for all checkboxes
Prompt Engineering:
- ModifyIntent and NewIntent now strictly require all file content and terminal commands to be output in language-specific code blocks (e.g.,
bash,
powershell, ```typescript). This ensures reliable parsing and safe execution of AI-generated outputs.
🖥️ Automatic Shell Intelligence
Cross-platform command magic! The AI suggests bash commands, but on Windows they're automatically converted to PowerShell and executed seamlessly:
# AI suggests these cross-platform commands
mkdir -p project/src
mv *.ts src/components/
cp package.json project/
# Windows users get PowerShell - automatically executed
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path "project/src" -Force
Get-ChildItem -Filter "*.ts" | Move-Item -Destination "src/components/"
Copy-Item -Path "package.json" -Destination "project/"
⚡ Zero-Input Execution:
- Commands detected and executed automatically
- No buttons, no prompts, no interruptions
