Zed 0.195.3 has been released and presents a range of enhancements, featuring support for xAI language model providers, a sticky scroll function in the project panel, enhanced window restoration upon application load, refined text drag and drop capabilities, UI refinements in the Git panel, improved navigation to the agent edit review buffer, optimized terminal rendering performance, dynamic contrast adjustments in the terminal, and advancements in debugger functionality. The release also encompasses bug fixes, including YAML indentation corrections, resolution of auto-complete not appearing upon typing a character in template literal strings, and addressing issues within the rules library. Furthermore, enhancements have been made to agents, which now include support for xAI language model providers, refined tracking for Copilot premium requests, and optimized navigation.

The change log outlines multiple updates to a range of software packages, including the agent, debugger, vim, helix, and terminal. The agent has resolved the issue with the model list not refreshing upon subscribing to Zed Pro. Additionally, a debugger has been implemented to track query history, and enhancements have been made to the autocompletion feature. The PHP debug adapter has been relocated to the PHP extension, which could potentially disrupt user-defined debugging scenarios. The terminal has enhanced rendering performance, incorporated automatic dynamic contrast adjustment, and resolved issues related to multi-line terminal applications. The PHP debug adapter has been rebranded as Xdebug.
