Highlights

Nitro server layer support for React/Vite apps

This release adds Nitro server layer support for React/Vite apps, including those created with Dyad’s default template.

You can now upgrade React/Vite apps—typically focused on rich client interactions—into full-stack apps with a backend server, without needing a total rewrite or relying on a vendor-specific backend solution.

Improved Dyad Pro model picker UI

The Dyad Pro model picker has been redesigned for easier model selection. Providers and models are now grouped with clear icons and pricing badges where available, making it simpler to compare options and choose the appropriate model for your work. Free users retain the previous UI since model access depends on configured providers.

Faster, lower-memory AI streaming responses

Dyad now streams long AI responses more efficiently, resulting in smoother output and reduced risk of crashes when handling large AI chat responses.

Enhancements & fixes

• Enhanced settings write recovery, now preserving backups to prevent lost settings in edge cases.
• When Local Agent reaches its step limit, the prompt queue is paused so you can review before continuing.
• Context compaction thresholds are now customized by provider, reducing unnecessary context reduction.
• Basic Agent mode now supports all providers, rather than being limited to OpenAI and Anthropic.
• Fixed Review & Commit dialog button placement for improved usability.
• Clarified how Local Agent receives AI rules from AI_RULES.md for better rule following.
• Improved support for Vite 8 apps in app tagging and selection features.
