This release introduces Agent Profiles — reusable presets for launching coding agents — along with related launcher and Settings improvements.

New

  • Agent Profiles: create named launch presets for Claude Code and Codex with a chosen model, reasoning effort, execution mode, tab/split placement, extra arguments, and per-profile environment variable overrides (for example, pointing a profile at a different API endpoint). Manage them in Settings → Agents, each with its own custom icon and an optional isolated account/home.
  • Launch a profile from the toolbar Agents menu, its new one-click quick-launch segment (instantly launches your Recommended profile), or the Command Palette's "Launch Agent" rows.
  • Clear a recorded keyboard shortcut with the new Clear button shown while remapping — the shortcut stays unset until you press Reset.

Improved

  • Settings now uses native macOS navigation chrome (sidebar and back button) throughout.
  • The Agents popover groups launcher rows under one header and dims agents whose CLI isn't found on your PATH, showing why and rechecking automatically when you reopen it.
  • A profile's environment variables and dedicated account now apply only to the agent it launches — manually running codex or claude in the same tab no longer inherits them.

Fixed

  • Fixed a crash when adding or removing rows in a profile's Environment Variables table.
  • Fixed several brand icons (Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and others) rendering as a tiny dot in the Default Agent Profile picker.
