Changelog

Follow DevSwarm's progress, from the newest features to the latest fixes.

v2.5.0

DevSwarm 2.5.0 adds a real chat interface for your terminal coding agents, built into every workspace's editor, plus a visual overhaul that adopts your VS Code theme across the whole app. It also brings a simpler first-run setup, a redesigned workspace-creation flow, and a new workspace search palette.

  • A real, richly formatted chat interface for the coding agents you already use, built into every workspace's editor, with support for Claude, GitHub Copilot, and OpenAI Codex: streamed responses, clickable permission prompts, tool-call cards, and reliability fixes so a stuck or failed response is always surfaced instead of hanging silently
  • A visual refresh that adopts your VS Code theme across the entire app, so the sidebar, header, settings, and modals retint live the moment you switch, and each project can carry its own theme. Alongside it, a simpler first-run setup and a redesigned Create Workspace flow with live Jira and GitHub pickers
  • A keyboard-driven workspace search and quick-switch palette that finds any workspace by name, branch, or linked Jira issue, plus Windows reliability fixes for deep file paths and terminal shell selection

v2.4.0

DevSwarm 2.4.0 introduces Multi-Repo workspaces: bundle several repositories into a single workspace, work across all of them at once, and review changes everywhere in one place. It arrives alongside a batch of reliability fixes.

  • New Multi-Repo workspaces bundle several repositories into a single workspace, so you can create one through a guided wizard, build a change across all of them, and review it in one place, while each repository keeps its own branch and pull request. DevSwarm can also adopt repositories that already use submodules.
  • Fixed a blank AI terminal that could appear when creating or resuming a workspace
v2.3.5

DevSwarm 2.3.5 is a small maintenance release that polishes Windows support and workspace indexing.

  • Reliability improvements, including better Windows support and steadier workspace indexing
v2.3.4

DevSwarm 2.3.4 is a stability and access release: terminals hold onto their output, repositories clean up after themselves, students get Pro access, and you stay signed in longer.

  • Students and educators with a .edu email address now get Pro-tier access automatically
  • Fewer surprise sign-outs: a roughly three-day silent renewal window keeps you logged in, and DevSwarm only signs you out after confirming your access was actually revoked
  • Terminals no longer lose output when you reattach to a workspace, and terminal rendering is hardened against crashes when switching tabs
  • Adding or cloning a repository into a folder that already exists now recovers gracefully, with clear inline guidance when a clone fails for environmental reasons
v2.3.3

DevSwarm 2.3.3 is a reliability release: AI agent installs recover from failures, the embedded IDE signals readiness more robustly, and terminals pick up your VS Code theme.

  • AI agent install failures now retry and offer a repair flow instead of stalling
  • The embedded IDE's ready signal is more robust, with recovery options when startup takes too long
  • Terminal colors sync with your VS Code theme
  • Keyboard shortcuts respect non-QWERTY keyboard layouts
