Initial Developer Preview: "Where developer intent meets open models"

This release marks the first complete, functional developer preview of CodeAlloy—an open-model-native autonomous IDE forked from Code-OSS. It brings sovereign, agentic coding capabilities to local open-weights models (such as Qwen 2.5 Coder, DeepSeek-Coder, Gemma, and Llama) without sending proprietary code to third-party cloud AI vendors.

Added

Epic 1: Autonomous Engine & Agent Chat Interface

  • Local Model Provider Engine: Native streaming integration with local Ollama instances (localhost:11434) and self-hosted vLLM / llama.cpp servers.
  • Dynamic Model Discovery: Queries the runtime endpoints dynamically to list available models; eliminates hardcoded deprecations.
  • Dedicated Agent Sidebar Webview: High-performance, reactive chat panel built into the CodeAlloy workbench activity bar with syntax-highlighted code blocks, tool status badges, and token streaming.
  • Autonomous Tool-Calling Protocol: Parser supporting OpenAI-compatible function calling, Qwen XML tool syntax (<tool_call>), and fallback regex for open-weights models.
  • Workspace Tool Suite: Native implementations of write_file, replace_file_content, read_file, list_dir, and execute_command.

Epic 2: Autonomy Levels & Permissions Guardrails

  • 5-Tier Autonomy Dial: Segmented control (L0: Assist, L1: Chat, L2: Supervised, L3: Guarded, L4: Autonomous) accessible in the agent panel and status bar.
  • Level 2 (Supervised) Interactive Approvals: Interactive approval cards with side-by-side diff previews before any file write or command execution; keyboard shortcuts (Enter to approve, Esc to reject).
  • Level 3 (Guarded) Workspace Safety: Automatic execution of edits within the workspace root; explicit approval required for dangerous operations (rm -rf, sudo, git push --force, or access outside workspace).
  • Level 4 (Autonomous) Goal Runner: Continuous execution loop with built-in loop detector circuit breaker (trips on 3 identical errors) and configurable turn cap.

Epic 3: Shadow Git Checkpoints & Time-Travel Rollback

  • Atomic Pre-Turn Snapshots: Isolated Git store in ~/.codealloy/projects/<hash>/history.git executing git write-tree and git commit-tree in < 5ms without touching or polluting workspace .git.
  • 1-Click Turn Rollback: Instant [Undo Turn] button restoring all modified, created, and deleted files for that turn using git checkout <pre-turn-tree-id> -- ..
  • Historical Time-Travel Scrubber: Visual session scrubber allowing developers to step back to any prior checkpoint.

Epic 4: Extension Ecosystem & Open VSX Marketplace

  • Open VSX Marketplace Integration: Preconfigured gallery endpoints (serviceUrl: https://open-vsx.org/vscode/gallery) enabling discovery and 1-click installation of thousands of open-source language servers, themes, and linters.
  • VSIX Sideloading: Direct .vsix drag-and-drop installation and terminal installation via codealloy --install-extension <path.vsix>.
  • CodeAlloy CLI Launcher (bin/codealloy): Terminal command launcher supporting codealloy ., --install-extension, and --list-extensions.

Epic 5: Workbench Customization, Inline Diffs & MCP

  • Native Inline Streaming Diffs: Zero-dependency Longest Common Subsequence (LCS) differ that renders additions (green) and deletions (red strikethrough) directly in the active editor buffer with keyboard shortcuts (Tab accept, Esc reject, Cmd+Enter accept all).
  • Model Context Protocol (MCP) Support: Stdio JSON-RPC 2.0 client discovering .codealloy/mcp_config.json and bridging external tools into model tool declarations.

Epic 6: Cross-Platform Packaging & Desktop Installers

  • Distribution Packaging: Automated build scripts generating macOS .dmg / .zip, Linux .deb / .tar.gz, and Windows .exe / .zip.
  • GitHub Actions Release Pipeline: Cloud matrix CI/CD workflow (.github/workflows/release.yml) automatically building and publishing multi-platform releases on tag push.
  • Automated Releasing Helper (scripts/release.sh): CLI utility to generate changelogs, create git tags, and trigger release pipelines.
