Writing Assistant

  • No longer requires a note to be open for access.
  • Quick actions are now suggested to quickly start chats, with actions tailored depending on whether context is attached.
  • You can now edit past prompts to restart the query and message history from that point with your new input.
  • History search now searches within the responses and queries of messages.
  • A copy button is now available for one-click prompt copying (you can still select text to copy as before).
  • When using the assistant with no file open, the response quick actions include a new Create note from response option.

Ask Octarine

  • Slight design and layout update: model name and timestamp for queries are now more clearly displayed.
  • Suggested actions now feature distinctive icons.
  • History search now also matches inside responses and chat queries.

Search

  • In-file search now detects URLs inside markdown links, image and video alt tags, and doclinks.

Improvements

  • Images and videos now show an outline when hovered by the cursor.
  • Markdown images (including web-pasted ones) can now be resized.
  • Settings → AI Assistant → AI Providers and the model selector now display provider icons.
  • Past prompts in both Writing Assistant and Ask Octarine now show the model name instead of the model ID (e.g., claude-sonnet-4-20250102 is now Claude Sonnet 4).
  • In Views, the note name cell is now aligned with the header, and dates/times are shown in a more compact format: Wednesday, December 24 6:40PM → Wed, Dec 24 6:40PM.
  • Claude/Anthropic models now support web search.
  • Added shortcuts: Option/Alt + CMD/Ctrl + [ / ] to collapse or expand headings.

Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where renaming a note in the sidebar after a specific sequence of actions prevented the spacebar from inserting spaces.
    • Sequence — CMD + Shift + E → Space to open note → CMD + Shift + E again to focus sidebar → Enter to initiate rename → Space inside wouldn’t work
  • Fixed a bug where a blank, undeletable line would appear after adding images (unless the image itself was deleted).
  • Resolved an issue where chats with zero messages would still be saved to Writing Assistant’s history.
  • Prevented the model selector from being cut off by the prompt when scrolling.
  • Fixed a bug where copying or inserting researched content from Writing Assistant would include the `` tag in the pasted text.
  • Fixed an issue where pressing Enter at the end of a collapsed header would add a line inside the collapsed content but not expand it.
