Details

Improvements

  • Code Search Introducing a unified UI for chat and search

    Combines Cody chat and Code Search into a single unified interface.

  • Rel Address pg12 -> pg16 drift with normalization
    • Normalize drift detection to handle for postgres 12 to 16 upgrade
  • Agents Make review agent configurable via program files
    • The Review agent now requires the program file .sourcegraph/review-agent.json with at least the content "{}" to enable posting Pull Requests review through the GitHub App. The JSON file may contain additional configuration options to override defaults of the ReviewRequestConfiguration object (see OpenAPI spec)
  • Cody Improve rendering of diagnostics as GitHub comments
    • The Review Agent now includes the rule ID when posting comments on pull requests. By default, the minimum review severity is errors (previously it was warning). When the minimum severity is overridden to be warnings, then the review comments will also include the severity.
  • Cody Make Review Agent rule detection configurable
    • Configure custom review rules for the Review Agent by adding *.rule.md files nested under .sourcegraph/ directories in any ancestor director of files in the diff.
  • Cody Sourcegraph Agents
    • New /.api/agents/** endpoints to manage the creation of Sourcegraph Agents (EAP feature).
    • New support to automatically review GitHub Pull Requests with a Review Agent via GitHub Apps (EAP feature).
  • Prompt templates now support specific @ mentions

    feat: prompt templates now support specific @ mentions

  • Cody First stab at a Code Review Agent API
    • New GET /.api/tools endpoint to list tool definitions for Sourcegraph API endpoints to use with the LLM /chat/completions endpoint for function calling.
    • New POST /.api/review/diff endpoint to get a list of code review comments given a git diff (including GitHub pull requests and Gitlab merge requests).
  • Propagate bestScoringLine and use that to center chunks in the search UI
    • For broad matches, we now center the best-scoring line in search results
  • Add tools support to LLM API (aka. function calling)
    • The /.api/llm/chat/completions endpoint now support function calling via the tools property. This feature works when using the LLM providers: OpenAI, Anthropic, Fireworks, AWS Bedrock, and Gemini.

  • Authentication Improve session expiration behavior

    We are changing the behavior of session expiration to be a hard-cap instead of a rolling window. auth.sessionExpiry will now set a hard-limit on the sessions lifetime, and users will have to re-authenticate after this period. To preserve the previous behavior where sessions would be invalidated after they haven't been used for a while, a new configuration option named auth.maxSessionIdleDuration has been introduced that controls session expiration based on inactivity.

  • Authentication Don't expire sessions based on OAuth token validity

    Fixed an issue where Sourcegraph user sessions initiated via OAuth integrations did not respect the auth.sessionExpiry configuration and expired much earlier.

  • Code Intel Add DB constraints for syntactic jobs+policies

    In the site admin configuration for code graph policies, restricts the creation of policies for syntactic indexing to HEAD-only. This restriction may be lifted in the future. Policies for precise auto-indexing are not affected.

  • Code Search VSCode Search extension - auth panel not loading when filesystem is case sensitive
    • fixes 404 errors when trying to load "authSidebar.js" when the Code Search VS Code extension is used with the VSCode Remote SSH extension
  • Multi Tenant Fixes update seats modal max count validation
