Dyad0.18.0 Beta 2
New Pro features - Help chatbot and new Smart Context options
Dyad v0.18.0 Beta 2 delivers quick help with Help Bot and saves up to 25% AI credits with improved Smart Context.
Highlights
Help Bot
Help Bot allows you to ask questions about the Dyad product itself - all within the app. For example, wondering if a model is supported in the latest Dyad version? Just ask the Dyad Help Bot! It searches Dyad's website and gives you up-to-date information with sources.
This feature is currently only available to Dyad Pro subscribers.
Using the Help Bot, unlike the regular chat feature, does not consume your AI credits!
Smart Context options
Dyad Pro's flagship feature: Smart Context now has a new option called "Balanced" that you can opt into.
The biggest benefit of using the new Balanced option is that it uses up to 25% fewer AI credits to process your AI requests! We recommend giving it a try, especially for large codebases, so you can get more done with your AI credits. Under the hood, the Balanced option uses a more efficient model and targeted approach, ensuring that only the most relevant files are sent to the flagship model you selected.
Also, thanks to suggestions from some of our power users, we now show you in your chat how many codebase tokens you've saved by using Smart Context!
The existing Smart Context behavior is called "Conservative" and you can continue to use it. It uses more AI credits than the Balanced option but is more exhaustive and can be helpful for complex requests.
Other changes
We also have another contribution from the community:
- Adds timestamp and version at the bottom of each AI message - thanks @princeaden1!
