Weekly Update #5
TL;DR
This release introduces a manual sub-task execution mode for more control over sensitive workflows. We’ve also added MCP support in the CLI, enabled GitHub Copilot and Claude Pro/Max authentication, and shipped new tutorials and key security and stability improvements. 🙌
🚀 Features
- Manual Execution Mode for Sub-Tasks: Sub-tasks created with
newTask
can now be run in a manual, step-by-step mode avoiding large unmoderated changes to your codebases in your sensitive workflows. #300
- MCP support in CLI: The CLI now supports running your Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, allowing you to connect your tools, and run MCP-powered workflows directly from the terminal. This update brings the CLI closer to parity with the VS Code extension. #100
-
AI Tooling Integrations (GitHub Copilot + Claude): You can now authenticate and use your GitHub Copilot and existing Claude Pro/Max subscriptions within Pochi across both the CLI and VS Code. Once authenticated, these services provide completions and suggestions directly in your workflows, enhancing the overall AI-assisted development experience. #184 , #61, #306
-
Improved VS Code Configuration Navigation: VS Code commands like
Pochi: Open MCP Server Settings
now open the relevant config file and jump directly to the specific setting, #301
✨ Enhancements
-
Enhanced Gemini Model Support: We've improved existing image input capabilities with added PDF and video inputs, providing richer multimodal workflows with Gemini models. #219
-
Malformed Custom Agents in VSCode Settings: Previously ignored malformed agent files (e.g., with YAML parsing errors) are now displayed in the settings UI with a clear warning, making it easier to debug and fix broken custom agent configurations. #391, #415
