v1.3.68
Inline Edit (Ctrl+K)
Select code, hit Ctrl+K, describe the change — the AI rewrites the selection in place. Same muscle memory as Cursor and Windsurf.
CodeSky Desktop — v1.3.139 The full AI-powered IDE
The full AI-powered IDE
for your machine.
All of CodeSky's AI generation, designer, and project workflows — running locally on your machine. Faster, private, and online or offline. Built on the same engine as the web app, with desktop-only features like inline edit, MCP tool servers, hardware-aware offline AI, and a visual debugger.
Windows — available now macOS — coming soon Linux — coming soon
Twelve reasons it earns a spot in your dock.
Every item below shipped in the last few months. None of them require an internet round-trip to the CodeSky cloud (offline AI is one click away).
v1.3.69
MCP — Model Context Protocol
Plug in project-scoped tool servers (filesystem, shell, custom). Your AI gains repo-aware context without leaking it to the cloud.
v1.3.69
.codeskyrules + Repo Conventions
A per-repo rules file the AI reads on every turn — codebase conventions, lint rules, architectural guardrails. No more reminding it twice.
v1.3.70
Hardware-Aware Ollama Picker
The offline-setup wizard inspects your CPU, RAM, and GPU and recommends Ollama models you can actually run smoothly.
v1.3.71
In-App Announcements (8 Languages)
Markdown release notes with i18n, scheduling, and a built-in modal. Updates land in-app the moment they ship.
v1.3.74
Reliable Auto-Updater
Kill-all-child-processes on quit so the updater can always swap the executable. Dismissible update banner — never blocks your flow.
v1.3.74
VS Code-Style Tab Context Menu
Right-click any open tab for "Close Others", "Close to the Right", "Close All", "Copy Path" — the editor shortcuts your fingers already know.
v1.3.73
Database Picker at Project Creation
Choose SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL, or SQLite right from the dashboard new-project flow. No post-create reconfiguration.
v1.3.69
Terminal AI + AI Commit Messages
Ask the AI to draft commit messages from your staged diff, and translate plain-English requests into shell commands directly in the terminal pane.
Visual Debugger with Breakpoints
Full debug UI — set breakpoints in the editor gutter, step over / into / out, inspect variables, evaluate watch expressions. No external tooling.
System Tray + Deep Links
Minimize to tray, get notifications when long-running generations complete, and open projects from `codesky://` URLs in chat or email.
v1.3.76
Per-Provider Quota Tracking
Separate counters for provider-side rate limits vs your CodeSky credits — you always know which budget is about to run out.
