New queue, diff diffs

New queue

We’ve redesigned our message queue from the ground-up. image Highlights:

  • Partial messages are preserved across edits
  • Any queued message may be deleted, sent, or edited
  • The queue pauses to prevent interruption during user edits

With more improvements on the way!

Diff diffs

Better diffing & commenting! “Next comment” (or ⌘⌥J) takes you to the next comment in a file image Diffs may now be grouped by folder image Whitespace diffs can also be hidden image

New provider / environment settings

We’ve refreshed our provider & environment configuration UI to make it easier to configure by CLI & API key image image
