This is especially useful for Claude Code users.  

With upcoming changes to their pricing, Terminal Threads will be the only way to use Claude Code in Zed with your existing subscription.

Open a new Terminal Thread from the Agent Panel and your terminal session appears in the sidebar.

Use them for cli agents, long compiles, eval runs, or anything you want to keep visible and organized in your workspace.

Terminal Threads are live in Zed v1.3.5!  

You can now run claude, amp, pi, or any terminal-based workflow as a managed thread in the Threads Sidebar, right next to your other agent threads.

Magicare migrated to PlanetScale and achieved an 85%+ reduction in query latency, 17× faster materialized view refreshes, and a 6× smaller database footprint per instance. Read the article for all the details.

/plan now takes a task inline.

Reads your code before it writes any.
Outputs the plan as a file.
Edit it. Then run it.

Execution is the easy part.

vibe coding without understanding what's going on feels like I'm a child whose parent took over my school project

I don't feel good when I'm done, and I sure won't be able to answer any questions in show 'n' tell tomorrow

I fear AI models might be somewhat veblen goods, and that we all somewhat conflate price with quality

New in v0.26.11

Command Code supports Gemini 3.5 Flash.
Pro-level coding, parallel agentic execution, 1M token context.

Live in /model, same hour Google shipped it.

"Stop and Think" was (is?) probably the most repeated idiom at the camp, preceding the cartoon

side note: if you have a son approaching ages 12-16 I wholeheartedly recommend Camp Pasquaney!

first time I've licensed a cartoon! 

this particular cartoon was pinned to the bulletin board outside the dining hall at the summer camp I went to and worked at for eight summers, and as far as I know it's still there

Local model usage grew 3x in Zed in the last 10 weeks. Cameron Mcloughlin on why he prefers local: 

"I worry about over-reliance on providers that operate like SaaS platforms, where a change of pricing or setup makes them unfeasible to use. With a local model, you always have access."

New in tomorrow's stable release: pick a dedicated model for your subagents with `agent.subagent_model`.

sadly I cannot find screenshots of either original site on the internet archive

TIL peta[dot]org was registered by a troll in 1995 for a "People Eating Tasty Animals" site, which unsurprisingly went to court and eventually PETA got it back

*but* in the meantime they fought fire with fire and bought ringlingbrothers[dot]com to criticize circus animal cruelty

Custom git commands will also be arriving this Zednesday.
