Articles, notes and updates on the agent, the tools, and the craft of building software with AI.
This release has no flashy new commands. No new UI. Just two changes that address real friction we've been seeing in daily use: wasted money on cache misses, and wasted tokens on guessing where code lives.
We've all been there. You ask the agent to refactor a module, it gets three turns deep, and somewhere along the way things went sideways. The conversation branched into a dead end, and your files are in a state that's hard to untangle.
There's a quiet problem with CLI tools. You install them, they work, and then you forget about them. Updates ship with new features, performance improvements, and bug fixes, but you never find out because nothing tells you they exist.
There's a moment in every coding session where you want to try something different. You've been building a feature one way, but you're not sure it's the right approach. You want to explore an alternative without losing the work you've already done.
There's a familiar moment when you're working with a coding agent. You ask it to review a pull request, and it gives you back something polite and generic — "consider adding error handling here, maybe rename this variable, looks good overall." Useful in the way a horoscope is useful. You wanted a sharp opinion. You got a vibe.
There's a moment in every developer's workflow where you realize you've been solving the same problem a slightly different way each time. Code reviews follow a different checklist depending on who's doing them. Commit messages drift in shape across the team.
Every developer has done this. You're building a landing page and the client says "make it look like Stripe" or "I want that Linear feel." You open the target site, start inspecting elements, copy hex codes into a notepad, screenshot the button styles, try to figure out the spacing scale, and piece together a mental model of their design system.
There's a moment in every long-running project where you realize you've explained the same thing to the AI agent four times this week. "We use the repository pattern." "Tests go in tests/Feature/." "Always run Pint before committing." "The API returns paginated responses with a meta key."
There's no new command in this release. No new extension, no new theme, no new slash command. v0.7.0 is a dependency update. Four major version bumps, zero code changes required.
