  • Improved performance in Quarto documents. Requests made in Quarto documents should now be much less likely to break cell formatting (#30).

  • Introduced gander.chat, gander.style, and gander.dims as the preferred option names, following standard R package option naming conventions. The legacy options .gander_chat, .gander_style, and .gander_dims continue to work and will not be deprecated.

  • Updated recommended models to Claude Sonnet 4.6, GPT-4.1, and Gemini 3 Flash.

  • Rewrote prompt structure to more clearly communicate the agent's task. This should broadly result in stronger understanding of user requests and stronger adherence to system instructions (#67).

  • Initial CRAN submission.

Notable changes pre-CRAN submission

Early adopters of the package will note two changes made shortly before the
release of the package to CRAN:

  • The configuration options .gander_fn and .gander_args have been
    transitioned to one option, .gander_chat. That option takes an ellmer Chat, e.g.
    options(.gander_chat = ellmer::chat_claude()).
    If you've configured an ellmer model using the previous options, you'll get
    an error that automatically translates to the new code you need to use.

  • There is no longer a default ellmer model. Early in the development
    of gander, if you had an ANTHROPIC_API_KEY set up, the addin would
    "just work." While this was convenient for Claude users, it means that the
    package spends money on the users behalf without any explicit opt-in.
