Features

AI

• Added sandboxing for the Agent's terminal and fetch tools. (#61711)
• Added a reasoning effort selector for Anthropic-compatible providers when the selected model supports adaptive thinking. (#61579)

Git

Vim / Helix

• Added the _ keybinding in Helix mode to trim whitespace from selections. (#55253; thanks jgarte)

Languages

• Improved Markdown preview links so links to Markdown files open a preview scrolled to the linked heading or position, with alt-click opening the raw source instead. (#61784)
