Ask Heal anything
Heal is now more flexible: on top of the testing harness, it can handle any task a coding agent can handle.
New
- Introducing the live view: see exactly what the agent is working on. If it's working on a test, you'll see that test.
- Ask the agent anything. "Fix this bug and re-run the tests", "the code changed, update the tests", "tidy up this folder" now work. Heal works in your workspace only, and asks for permission before editing your source code.
- When the agent finishes its tasks, it waits for you instead of closing and forgetting the session. Use
/quitor ctrl-c to end a conversation when you're done. - Talk to the agent while it's working! Instead of ignoring your messages, it now reacts to input while running: "what are you doing?" or "stop, do this instead".
Improved
- Tasks that exit now explain why clearly.
- The agent panel can now be resized.
- In git repositories, the agent now ignores your own staged work and only tracks its own changes.
Fixed
- Fixed a bug where slow background jobs caused the agent to lose its results.
- Fixed a bug where answering the agent mid-run wasn't immediately taken into account.
- Quitting Studio cleans up after itself. A run still in flight gets its sandbox torn down before the app exits, and the shells behind your console tabs are closed with them, so a stray container or a background process from the last session isn't there waiting when you reopen.
- Fixed a bug where updates needed to be accepted twice. "Restart now" now updates the app on the first click.
