Wave Terminal v0.9.3 Release

What's Changed

• New block/zone aliases (client, global, block, workspace, temp)
• wsh ai file attachments are now rendered with special handling in the AI block
• New ephemeral block type for creating modal widgets which will not disturb the underlying layout
• Editing the AI presets file from the Wave AI block now brings up an ephemeral editor
• Clicking outside of a magnified bglock will now un-magnify it
• New button to clear the AI chat (also bound to Cmd-L)
• New button to reset terminal commands in custom cmd widgets
• [bugfix] Presets directory was not loading correctly on Windows
• [bugfix] Magnified blocks were not showing correct on startup
• [bugfix] Window opacity and background color was not getting applied properly in all cases

Wave Terminal v0.9.2 Release

New minor release with bug fixes and new features! We’ve resolved the issue with Wave’s fullscreen mode, which also affected certain window managers like Hyprland. Additionally, we’ve put a lot of work into our documentation site (https://docs.waveterm.dev), including detailed guides on using Widgets and Presets.

• Updated documentation
• Wave AI now supports the Anthropic API! Checkout the FAQ for how to use the Claude models with Wave AI.
• Removed defaultwidgets.json and unified it to widgets.json. Makes it more straightforward to override the default widgets.
• New resolvers for -b param in wsh. "tab:N" for accessing the nth tab, "[view]" and "[view]:N" for accessing blocks of a particlar view.
• New wsh ai command to send AI chats (and files) directly to a new or existing AI block
• wsh setmeta/getmeta improvements. Allow setmeta to take a json file (and also read from stdin), also better output formats for getmeta (compatible with setmeta).
• [bugfix] Set max completion tokens in the OpenAI API so we can now work with o1 models (also fallback to non-streaming mode)
• [bugfix] Fixed content resizing when entering "full screen" mode. This bug also affected certain window managers (like Hyprland)
• Lots of other small bug fixes, docs updates, and dependency bumps
