When deciding if a model supports tools or not, we weren't reading from
the configured model in a given thread.
This also stores the profile on the thread, which matches the behavior
of the Model and Max Mode, which we also already store per thread.
Hopefully this helps alleviate some confusion.
Release Notes:
- agent: Save profile selection per-Agent thread
Release Notes:
- Fixed a bug that would prevent the agent from working over SSH.

This PR makes it so we send up an `x-zed-version` header with the
client's version when making a request to llm.zed.dev for edit
predictions and completions.
Release Notes:

Adds a new `agent.model_parameters` setting that allows the user to
specify a custom temperature for a provider AND/OR model:
```json5
"model_parameters": [
// To set parameters for all requests to OpenAI models:
{
"provider": "openai",
"temperature": 0.5
},
// To set parameters for all requests in general:
{
"temperature": 0
},
// To set parameters for a specific provider and model:
{
"provider": "zed.dev",
"model": "claude-3-7-sonnet-latest",
"temperature": 1.0
}
],
```
Release Notes:
- agent: Allow customizing temperature by provider/model

Release Notes:
- Agent Beta: Renamed the top-level `assistant` settings key to `agent`.
A migration for existing settings files is included.
- Agent Beta: Moved the `assistant::ToggleFocus`,
`assistant::ToggleModelSelector`, and `assistant::OpenRulesLibrary`
actions to the `agent` namespace. Existing keymaps that mention these
actions by their old names will continue to work.

Because we instantiated `ContextServerManager` both in `agent` and
`assistant-context-editor`, and these two entities track the running MCP
servers separately, we were effectively running every MCP server twice.
This PR moves the `ContextServerManager` into the project crate (now
called `ContextServerStore`). The store can be accessed via a project
instance. This ensures that we only instantiate one `ContextServerStore`
per project.
Also, this PR adds a bunch of tests to ensure that the
`ContextServerStore` behaves correctly (Previously there were none).

This change:
1. Catches attempts to use missing tools. If this happens, we now send
Agent a message listing available tools, after which Agent can
gracefully recover. Prior behavior: thread would stop in a broken state.
Example of a hallucinated call and a message we send back:

2. Adds evals for hallucinated tool use and imagined edits
3. Adds ability to configure a profile name in evals.

This PR adds a notice when reaching consecutive tool use limits when
using normal mode.
Here's an example with the limit artificially lowered to 2 consecutive
tool uses:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/32da8d38-67de-4d6b-8f24-754d2518e5d4
Release Notes:
- agent: Added a notice when reaching consecutive tool use limits when
using a model in normal mode.
Enables reviewing agent edits from single-file editors in addition to
the multibuffer experience we already had.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a2c287f0-51d6-43a1-8537-821498b91983
This feature can be turned off by setting `assistant.single_file_review:
false`.
Release Notes:
- agent: Review edits in single-file editors
This sets us up to display queue position information to the user, once
our language model backend is updated to support request queuing.
The JSON returned by the LLM backend will need to look like this:
```json
{"queue": {"status": "queued", "position": 1}}
{"queue": {"status": "started"}}
{"event": {"THE_UPSTREAM_MODEL_PROVIDER_EVENT": "..."}}

This PR makes it possible to use different LLM models in the agent
panels of two different projects, simultaneously. It also properly
restores a thread's original model when restoring it from the history,
rather than having it use the default model. As before, newly-created
threads will use the current default model.
Release Notes:
- Enabled different project windows to use different models in the agent
panel
- Enhanced the agent panel so that when revisiting old threads, their
original model will be used.

Previously, if you clicked on a user message to edit it, and then, while
the user message has the editor pending, sent a new message via the
textarea, the whole thread would be grayed out because we hadn't
dismissed the to-be-edited pending user message. That's now fixed.
Release Notes:
- agent: Fixed a bug that would make the whole thread be grayed out upon
sending a new message while a user message had a pending edit.
This moves summarization task management out of `context_store`. The
code there was draining a Vec of tasks to block on, but this is no
longer a good fit for message_editor's context loading. It needs to be
able to repeatedly await on the thread summarization tasks involved in
the context.
Discussed with Danilo, and he thinks it'd be good to remove the current
"Summarizing context" anyway since it causes layout shift. If message
send is blocked on summarizing, the pulsing context pill is sufficient
for now. This UI change made this overall change more straightforward.
Release Notes:

This change updates the system prompt to conditionally include
`grep`-related instructions based on whether the `grep` tool is enabled.
Implementation details:
1. Add a `has_tool` handlebars helper.
2. Pass the `model` to all locations where the prompt is built.
3. Use `{{#if has_tool "grep"}}` in the system prompt to gate
`grep`-specific instructions.
Testing:
- Unit tests for the `hasTool` helper.
- Unit tests to verify that `grep`-related instructions are included /
omitted from the prompt as appropriate.
- Manual agent evaluation:
- Setup: Asked the Agent "List all impls of MyTrait in the project"
using a custom "No tools" profile (all tools disabled).
- Before the change: The Agent attempted to call `grep`, encountered an
error, then realized the tool was unavailable.
- After the change: The Agent immediately asked to enable a search tool.
Note: in principle, `grep`/`read_file` tool descriptions alone might be
enough, but to confirm this we need more evaluation. If it turns out to
be true, we'll be able to remove grep-specific instructions from the
system prompt and undo this change.

Since #28065 merged we've seen deadlocks inside iconv when opening Zed
in a repository containing many submodules. These calls to iconv happen
inside libgit2, in our implementations of the methods `head_sha`,
`merge_head_shas`, and `show` on `RealGitRepository`. This PR moves
those methods to use the git CLI instead, sidestepping the issue. For
the sake of efficiency, a new `revparse_batch` method is added that uses
`git cat-file` to resolve several ref names in one invocation. I
originally intended to make `show` operate in batch mode as well (or
instead), but I can't see a good way to do that with the git CLI; `git
show` always bails on the first ref that it can't resolve, and
`for-each-ref` doesn't support symbolic refs like `HEAD`.
Separately, I removed the calls to `show` in `MergeDetails::load`, going
back to only loading the SHAs of the various merge heads. Loading full
commit details was intended to support the inlays feature that ended up
being cut from #28065, and we can add it back in when we need it.

This PR removes two fields from JSON schemas (`$schema` and `title`),
which are not expected by any model provider, but were spuriously
included by our JSON schema library, `schemars`.
These added noise to requests and cost wasted input tokens.

Simplifies the data structures involved in agent context by removing
caching and limiting the use of ContextId:
* `AssistantContext` enum is now like an ID / handle to context that
does not need to be updated. `ContextId` still exists but is only used
for generating unique `ElementId`.
* `ContextStore` has a `IndexMap<ContextSetEntry>`. Only need to keep a
`HashSet<ThreadId>` consistent with it. `ContextSetEntry` is a newtype
wrapper around `AssistantContext` which implements eq / hash on a subset
of fields.
* Thread `Message` directly stores its context.
Fixes the following bugs:
* If a context entry is removed from the strip and added again, it was
reincluded in the next message.
* Clicking file context in the thread that has been removed from the
context strip didn't jump to the file.
* Refresh of directory context didn't reflect added / removed files.
* Deleted directories would remain in the message editor context strip.
* Token counting requests didn't include image context.
* File, directory, and symbol context deduplication relied on
`ProjectPath` for identity, and so didn't handle renames.
* Symbol context line numbers didn't update when shifted
Known bugs (not fixed):
* Deleting a directory causes it to disappear from messages in threads.
Fixing this in a nice way is tricky. One easy fix is to store the
original path and show that on deletion. It's weird that deletion would
cause the name to "revert", though. Another possibility would be to
snapshot context metadata on add (ala `AddedContext`), and keep that
around despite deletion.

We used to insert empty user messages into the `Thread::messages` `Vec`
when tools finished running and then we would attach the results when
creating the request. This approach was very easy to mess up during
state handling, leading to empty user messages displayed in the
conversation and API failures.
Instead, we will no longer insert actual user messages for tool results
to the `Thread`, and will only do this on the fly when creating the
model request. This simplifies a lot of code and show fix the mentioned
errors.

- agent: Improve reliability of LLM requests when including tool results

Our provider code in `language_models` filters out messages for which
`LanguageModelRequestMessage::contents_empty` returns `false`. This
doesn't seem wrong by itself, but `contents_empty` was returning `false`
for messages whose first segment didn't contain non-whitespace text even
if they contained other non-empty segments. This caused requests to fail
when a message with a tool call didn't contain any preceding text.
Release Notes:
- N/A
* Adds a fast / cheaper model to providers and defaults thread
summarization to this model. Initial motivation for this was that
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/29099 would cause these
requests to fail when used with a thinking model. It doesn't seem
correct to use a thinking model for summarization.
* Skips system prompt, context, and thinking segments.
* If tool use is happening, allows 2 tool uses + one more agent response
before summarizing.
Downside of this is that there was potential for some prefix cache reuse
before, especially for title summarization (thread summarization omitted
tool results and so would not share a prefix for those). This seems fine
as these requests should typically be fairly small. Even for full thread
summarization, skipping all tool use / context should greatly reduce the
token use.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Previously, we were including the dummy text "Here are the tool
results." whenever reporting tool call results. I'm worried this is
adding noise and confusing the model, because the user didn't actually
say anything. This inserts an empty message to be populated later. My
preference would be something less stateful, where tool results (or
batches of them requested simultaneously) would be sent to the model as
soon as they were ready, without bothering to do this message
association dance. But for now, this seems to work.
