Release notes

Kilo Code v7.5.12

7.5.12

Patch Changes
  • #13789 b1ed65e - Keep model and reasoning selectors open during automatic prompt focus restoration.

7.5.11

Minor Changes
  • #13734 d95e20d - Explain worktrees, parallel agents, PR status, and conflict resolution with an inline Agent Manager introduction. Remember whether it is enabled and let users restore it from the welcome screen.

  • #13776 46dfbbc - Show pull request discussion comments and review submissions at the bottom of the Agent Manager PR view with actions to send them to the agent or terminal, copy, and dismiss.

  • #13779 737fba0 - Add a refresh button to fetch the latest pull request state in Agent Manager.

  • #13735 5a1da63 - Ask the worktree agent to update from its saved base branch with /update-from-base, the worktree menu, or Command Palette, without stashing or discarding uncommitted work.

  • #13592 6a224d2 Thanks @sylwester-liljegren! - Search the whole @ menu with one query. Names with spaces are now searchable, so @my report.txt finds the file it names, and past chats are found by title in the list instead of only behind Past chats. Files, chats, and entries such as Terminal, Git changes, and Browse files... are ranked together by how well they fit the query, rather than listed in fixed groups.

  • #13733 d969f8b - Show unresolved review thread counts beside worktree PR numbers in Agent Manager, with a shortcut to open the comments.

  • #13727 ce274e6 - Support agent-defined default answers for single-select questions, with Enter confirmation in the CLI and VS Code.

  • #13629 c0eba39 - Introduce Kilo Swarm, an opt-in shared board scoped to a main session and its task descendants, with persistent session history and fixed activity notices in tool results. Enable Kilo Swarm in Experimental settings for parallel solution attempts or complementary work, not every task. Post messages with board_post and read peer messages explicitly with board_read, without treating them as user requests or approval. Posting a message does not guarantee delivery or reading, or start an agent. Keep experimental.shared_agent_board, tool names, stored identifiers, history, and permissions unchanged.

    Keep background task status available for models without a reasoning variant.

    Warn when a direct board post targets a task known to be inactive, without restarting it.

    Keep peer content out of user turns and privileged instructions. Coalesce activity notices on genuine tool results, with message bodies available only through explicit reads. Preserve the parent's model and reasoning settings when background tasks finish.

Patch Changes
  • #13753 62c3660 - Reference /update-from-base in the Agent Manager introduction to explain how to merge the latest base branch changes into a worktree.

  • #13730 64123bc - Show the target session and full outgoing prompt when asking permission to send a prompt through Agent Manager.

  • #13731 05ae514 - Clear completed session indicators when you return to their chat across sidebar, editor, worktree, and subagent tabs. Keep indicators for sessions that finish while already open, and preserve unresolved input requests, errors, and turn diagnostics.

  • #13758 64df333 Thanks @WebReflection! - Reduce Agent Manager change-detection key sizes without changing update behavior.

  • #13707 e14b4db - Speed up worktree deletion when multiple terminals need to close, while preserving conversation history and process cleanup checks.

  • #13777 6876856 - Restore worktree delete actions when Agent Manager misses a shortcut modifier key release

  • #13706 9a8ce09 - Restore sending all Agent Manager diff comments with a second Cmd+Enter or Ctrl+Enter, including quick consecutive presses.

  • #13775 d842b97 - Clear stale Agent Manager running indicators when a background agent finishes while another project is selected.

  • #13704 3c04984 - Clear subagent permission prompts after approval or denial, even when the subagent view is closed, and prevent stale recovery responses from restoring resolved prompts.

  • #13738 8d347a9 - Show initial Agent Manager worktree prompts immediately while they are being sent.

  • #13692 8c077fb Thanks @WebReflection! - Use organization model defaults in VS Code while preserving valid preferences. Return consistent defaults from the CLI provider APIs, respect environment credential overrides, and prevent public-model fallbacks for Org accounts.

  • #13773 f18516e - Keep Agent Manager sections collapsed when deleting worktrees and select the nearest visible worktree with a session instead.

  • #13728
