@natcale The editor + visual changes + agent in one loop is the interesting part
Shape
@yashekbote Yeah, exactly. That’s the part I’m most excited about. Being able to make a change visually and then have the agent pick up from there feels really powerful.
Still early, but that’s the workflow I’m trying to nail.
Windows first for an agentic IDE is the thing I noticed. Almost everything in this category ships Mac and gets to Windows months later, so that is a real choice and it is the reason I can actually try it.
You asked where it falls apart. The seam I would look at is between the visual editor and the agent. When I change something on the running app, does that land in git as an ordinary diff? And can I tell later which lines came from me dragging things around and which the agent wrote?
Also, if the agent is halfway through editing the file I am clicking on, who wins?

@dimhold Windows first was on purpose. Glad that let you try it.
Live preview tweaks stay pending until Apply. Apply writes source, and git sees a normal diff.
After you commit, those lines are just code. Chat still has the agent’s diffs from that session.
If the agent is already writing the file you’re clicking, the last save wins. The editor reloads. Unsaved typing on that file gets replaced. Turn on edit approval if you want it to wait.
But thanks for the feedback!
